3. PUBLIC WORKS PROJECTS: IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
Christine Shingleton, Assistant Executive Director, reported that
in 1993, reform to Community Redevelopment Law required all
redevelopment agencies to adopt by December 31, 1994, a five-year
Implementation Plan for each Redevelopment Project Area outlining
the programs the Agency expected to undertake. She stated the
Implementation Plans would address the expected Agency expenditures

for the five-year period including debt service payments,
administration, property development,~ improvement assistance,
public works, and housing; she summarized the Town Center and South
Central Project Areas Financing Plans; noted the State could raid
Agency resources; encouraged listing as many projects as possible
on the Implementation Plan in order to protect Redevelopment
funding reserves; and explained State law required that all public
projects must be identified in the Redevelopment Plans. This
action limited the Agency's flexibility in developing new public
facilities not identified in the Town Center and South Central
Redevelopment Plans and therefore, staff requested direction for
adding projects to the Implementation Plans.
Agency/staff discussion followed regarding the Implementation
Plans' project list exceeding available funding; public
improvements listed as priority projects in the past; current
Agency commitment of improvement, growth, and development in the
Redevelopment area; including previous non-programmed projects in
the Implementation Plans; prioritizing projects; continuing this
item to allow staff to tentatively prioritize programmed and non-
programmed items; and that the commuter rail station was not part
of the Redevelopment Project area.
It was moved by Thomas, seconded by Potts, to continue this item to
the October 17, 1994 Redevelopment Agency meeting.
Motion carried 5-0.
OTHER BUSINESS

Agencymember Doyle stated the Federal government required
businesses to reduce their pollution level by a certain percentage
in order to receive federal funding and noted the City of
Anchorage, Alaska, because of their low level of pollution, was now
dumping pollution into the ocean in order to meet Federal
regulations and receive future funding.
Chairperson Saltarelli announced the Redevelopment Agency would adjourn
to closed session for a conference with legal counsel concerning the
initiation of litigation pursuant to Government Code Section 54956.9(c)
