The Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Santa Ana hereby <br />finds, determines and declares as follows: <br />A. As a result of Senate Bill 1096 (SB 1096) implementing the California <br />State Budget for fiscal year 2004 -2005, the Community Redevelopment Agency ( "Agency ") is <br />required to make a $3,401,346.78 payment to the County Educational Revenue Augmentation <br />Fund ( "ERAF ") by May 10, 2005. <br />B. The legislation allows the Agency to borrow up to fifty percent of the <br />amount required to be allocated to the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund during fiscal <br />year 2004 -2005 in order to make this payment. The funds may be borrowed for up to ten <br />years. <br />C. As a condition of borrowing from the Low and Moderate Income Housing <br />Fund pursuant to Health & Safety Code § 33681.12, the Agency must make a finding that there <br />are insufficient other moneys to remit the required ERAF payment. <br />D. The legislation implementing the State's fiscal year 2004 -2005 budget <br />authorized the County Auditor /Controller to withhold property tax revenue from the City's <br />general fund to the extent that the $3,401,346.78 payment is not made by the Agency by May <br />10, 2005. <br />E. SB 1096 also includes a provision that allows the legislative body to adopt <br />an ordinance to amend the redevelopment plan extending the time limit on the use of tax <br />increment to repay indebtedness and extend the time limit on the use of tax increment to repay <br />indebtedness and extend the plan effectiveness by one year for a redevelopment agency <br />making an ERAF payment. <br />Section 2. The Agency hereby finds that borrowing $3,401,346.78 from the Low and <br />Moderate Income Housing funds is necessary due to the insufficiency of other revenue <br />sources. <br />Section 3. The Executive Director of the Agency is hereby authorized to take all <br />necessary actions and to sign all documents and instruments necessary to make the <br />$3,401,346.78 payment to the County Auditor for deposit into the Educational Revenue <br />Augmentation Fund on or before May 10, 2005. 4-6 <br />
