The Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A. As a result of legislation implementing the California State Budget for fiscal year 2002-2003, the Community Redevelopment Agency ("Agency") is required to make a $1,058,013 payment to the County Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund ("ERAF") by May 10, 2003. B. The legislation allows the Agency to borrow up to fifty percent of the amount required to be allocated to the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund during fiscal year 2002-2003 in order to make this payment. The funds may be borrowed for up to ten years. C. As a condition of borrowing from the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund pursuant to Health & Safety Code § 33681, the Agency must make a finding that there are insufficient other moneys to remit the required ERAF payment. D. In fiscal year 1992-1993, the State legislature adopted similar legislation requiring the Agency to make a payment to the ERAF. At that time the Agency borrowed $1,000,000 from the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund. Repayment of this loan was anticipated in the Agency's fiscal year 2002-2003 budget. Health and Safety Code section 33681 (b) 2 allows repayment of the fiscal year 1992-1993 ERAF to be delayed for one additional year, to fiscal year 2003-2004. The Agency will be using this provision to defer payment accordingly. E. The legislation implementing the State's fiscal year 2002-2003 budget authorized the County Auditor/Controller to withhold property tax revenue from the City's general fund to the extent that the $1,058,013 payment is not made by the Agency by May 10, 2003. Section 2. The Agency hereby finds that borrowing $1,058,013 from the Low and Moderate Income Housing funds is necessary due to the insufficiency of other revenue sources. 04/09/03 Section 3. The Executive Director of the Agency is hereby authorized to take all necessary actions and to sign all documents and instruments necessary to make the $1,058,013 payment to the County Auditor for deposit into the Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund on or before May 10, 2003.
