STUDY SESSION - EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES IMPROVEMENT PLAN
Cynthia Nelson, Executive Director, Community Development Agency, made the
staff presentation for the Educational Facilities Improvement Plan,
explaining the goals and objectives of the proposed program. The Agency was
provided a copy of the taxing agency breakdowns, and Ms. Nelson described the
process by which the tax dollars would be allocated. It is expected that the
plan will generate approximately $2 million in revenues in year one,
increasing to $11 million by year five, assuming a five percent growth rate.
The funds must be spent on identified capital improvements, and each of the
school districts have been asked to develop an initial project list.

A joint meeting of the City Council and school districts is planned for
June 5 at 6:30 p.m. at the RTG, the purpose of which is to describe the plan
and gain support to proceed with creation of the project area. The next step
will be to establish a working committee of staff and board members. Their
purpose will be to establish policy, set the goals and objectives, and
identify the initial capital projects list. Staff will then meet with
neighborhoods and solicit their input. The process is expected to take 24
months to complete.
Mayor Young echoed the importance of involving the neighborhoods in this
long-range planning process. Agency Member McGuigan indicated the importance
of tracking proposed legislation that may have an impact on our plan.
A brief discussion followed regarding the participation of the Orange and
Tustin school districts to ensure their percentage share of the increment is
spent on facilities benefitting Santa Ana.
Mayor Young expressed the significance of this effort in conjunction with
Santa Ana 2000. Agency Member McGuigan indicated our relationship with the
school districts has received statewide, if not national, recognition.
Following other brief comments, the meeting was adjourned at 6:20 p.m.
