PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED THE day of , 1993 ATTEST: ANDREA L. HOOPER SECRETARY PAUL H. RICHARDS II CHAIRMAN, Lynwood Redevelopment Agency 9 DATE: November 16, 1993 TO: The Honorable Chairman and Agency Board Members FROM: Faustin Gonzales, Executive Director _ BY: Alfretta F. Earnest, Director of Finance SUBJECT: State Property Tax Shift Allocation for F.Y. 1993 -94 PURPOSE: To have the Agency Chairman and Board Members receive and file information regarding shift in redevelopment property tax revenue to County Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF). BACKGROUND: 1). The State of California Budget Act for 1993 requires Redevelopment Agencies to shift $65 million of tax increment revenues to school districts (K -12 Schools and Community Colleges). 2). The State Department of Finance recently notified staff (see attached correspondence) that the Lynwood Redevelopment Agency's current year's allocation to ERAF has been calculated at $68,536 ($14,327- Alameda Project Area and $54,209- Project Area " A " ). 3). Staff prepared the Agency's F. K. 1993 -94 Operating Budget to include estimated reductions in tax revenues. Therefore, no budget amendments are required to further reduce tax increment revenue projections for F.Y. 1993 -94. 4). The Director of Finance is required by State Statues to notify Agency Board Members of amount allocated to ERAF. 5). The Health and Safety Code, Section 33682 (e) requires the Agency to remit allocation to County of Los Angeles, Auditor Controller's Office by May 15, 1994. Should the Agency fail to make payments, the allocated amount will be deducted from City's General Fund Property Tax Revenues. Analvsis: The State of California initiated Redevelopment Agencies tax shifts of $200 million beginning in F.Y. 1992 -93 to balance the State's Budget. The Lynwood Redevelopment Agency's share was calculated at $190,683 ($39,862 - Alameda Project Area and $150,821 Project Area " A " ). The State Budget Act for 1993 requires Redevelopment Agencies again to shift tax increment revenues to school districts. However, the current year's shift has been reduced to $65 million. The Agency's share of tax shift has been calculated at $68,536 ($14,327 - Alameda Project and $54,209 - Project Area " A " ). The Lynwood Redevelopment Agency's F.Y. 1993 -94 Annual Operating Budget includes a reduction in tax increment revenues to meet allocation for Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF). Therefore, no additional reductions in revenue projections are needed to cover determined amount. AGENDA ITEM RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Lynwood Redevelopment Agency Board Members receive and file information regarding Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF).

DEPT. TO ALL REDEVELOPMENT AGENCIES AND THEIR LEGISLATIVE BODIES: `1 The 1993 Budget Act and related legislation require virtually every sector of California government to share in necessary state funding reductions. Chapter 68, Statutes of 1993, (SB 1135) requires redevelopment agencies to shift a total of $65 million in property tax revenues to K -12 schools and community colleges. It requires the Director of Finance to determine an amount for each redevelopment agency to be allocated to the county Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF). It further requires the Director of Finance to notify each redevelopment agency and its legislative body of the amount determined. In accordance with this requirement, the attached document provides the amount determined for your redevelopment agency. If more than one project area exists for your agency, a detail of the amount is provided on a project area basis. Each agency must allocate the amount determined to the county auditor for deposit in the ERAF on or before May 10, 1994. If an agency determines that it will be unable to allocate the full amount required, it must enter into an agreement with its legislative body to fund the payment of the difference between the full amount required and the amount available for allocation by the agency. If an agency fails to transmit the full amount required, is precluded by court order from transmitting that amount, or is otherwise unable to meet its full obligation, Section 33682.5(e) of the Health and Safety Code requires the county auditor, by no later than May 15, 1994, to transfer any amount necessary to meet the obligation determined for that agency from the legislative body's property tax allocation. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please contact Pedro R. Reyes at (916) 445 -6423. Sincerely, RUSSELL S.
