AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: January 30, 2012 Council Item ( X )
TITLE: Establishment of a Housing Authority and transfer of
Housing Functions and Assets to the Housing Authority
PRESENTED BY: Joyce Powers, Community and Economic Development
Director
RECOMMENDATION: 1. Adopt a Resolution creating a Housing Authority.
2. Adopt a Resolution transferring the housing functions and
assets of the Agency, by the City acting as the Agency’s
successor, to the Housing Authority.
BACKGROUND:
Pursuant to ABX1 26 dissolving redevelopment agencies throughout the State, on
January 10, 2012, the City Council adopted a resolution to be the successor agency to
the Community Redevelopment Agency. The City also agreed to assume the housing
functions of the dissolving Agency. On January 24, 2012, the Council approved actions
transferring title to the Agency’s real property to the City, as the successor agency , with
exception to those properties acquired with the Low to Moderate Income Housing Fund
(LMIHF).
DISCUSSION:
Creation of the Housing Authority is necessary because unsanitary or unsafe housing
still exists within the City, particularly in light of the recent economic downturn, high
unemployment rate and increasing rate of property foreclosures. In addition, there is a
shortage of safe and sanitary accommodations within the City affordable to persons of
low income. The Council is required to make these findings to create a Housing
Authority.
The pending Senate Bill 654, if passed, would allow any amounts on deposit in the Low
to Moderate Income Housing Fund to be transferred to specified entities, including a
City Housing Authority. The City Attorney has recommended that the City, as the
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. 1
Approvals
Finance Director (if applicable) BS
City Attorney KHB
City Manager bma
Redevelopment Agency’s successor, activate a Housing Authority to hold the assets,
liabilities and responsibilities of the dissolving Agency’s Low to Moderate Income
Housing Fund and other housing functions. In addition, the Housing Authority would be
prepared to accept any distribution of funds specified for affordable housing purposes.
A Resolution of the City Council activating the Grand Terrace Housing Authority
pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 34200, et seq. has been prepared by the
City Attorney and is attached as Attachment No. 1. This Resolution includes the
required findings. A second Resolution, Attachment No. 2, authorizes the transfer of all
rights, powers, assets, liabilities, duties, obligations and functions associated with
housing activities to the City’s Housing Authority pursuant to Health and Safety code
Section 34176. The transfer would occur on February 1, 2012.
FISCAL IMPACT:
At this time, the responsibilities of the Housing Authority will be funded by the City’s
General Fund. Assets transferred to the Housing Authority may be available for carrying
out housing projects. However, if SB 654 is passed by the State Legislature, funding for
the Housing Authority could also potentially come from the property tax revenue set
aside for low-to-moderate income housing.

Terrace as Successor Agency
PRESENTED BY: Bernie Simon, Finance Director
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt The Following Resolutions to:
1) Transfer funds of Grand Terrace Community
Redevelopment Agency held by Local Agency
Investment Funds to City of Grand Terrace as Successor
Agency
2) Authorize City of Grand Terrace as Successor Agency to
invest in the Local Agency Investment Fund
BACKGROUND:
On December 29, 2011, in the CRA v. Matosantos case, the Court upheld ABX1 26 and
invalidated ABX1 27 thereby eliminating redevelopment agencies and the voluntary
option to pay to continue redevelopment . All redevelopment agencies in California will
be dissolved effective February 1, 2012 with assets, properties, and documents
transferred to the successor agencies. On January 10, 2012 the City Council adopted a
resolution to be the successor agency to the Grand Terrace Community Redevelopment
Agency.
Both the City and Grand Terrace Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) have
investment accounts with the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) with the California
State Treasurer. The State Treasurer is able to pool funds from state and local
government agencies and invest such funds at favorable market investment rates, and
provide liquidity to its’ customers. According to information from the State Treasurer the

Pooled Money Investment Account Portfolio (PMIA) was $67.9 Billion on 12/31/11. The
Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) is a part of PMIA.
On January 25, 2012, the Office of the Treasurer announced quietly that it, in light of
ABX1 26 and the Supreme Court decision, will no longer accept deposits or allow
withdrawals of funds held in the name of redevelopment agencies on February 1, 2012.
DISCUSSION:
Office of the Treasurer will require a new resolution and new bank and authorization
form in the name of the successor agency. Otherwise such funds held by the dissolving
agency will not be available to the successor agency.
Attached are two resolutions to effectively transfer such funds held by the Grand
Terrace Community Redevelopment Agency to an account in the name of the City of
Grand Terrace as Successor Agency and an authorizing resolution for an account with
LAIF in the name the City of Grand Terrace as Successor Agency.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There are no fiscal impacts by the adoption of the resolutions.

TITLE: Establish Separate Account at Bank of America for
Successor Agency Unexpended Proceeds of 2011 Tax
Allocation Bonds
PRESENTED BY: Bernie Simon, Finance Director
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolutions to Authorize City of Grand Terrace as
Successor Agency to Execute Banking Resolution with Bank
of America
BACKGROUND:
On December 29, 2011, in the CRA v. Matosantos case, the Court upheld ABX1 26 and
invalidated ABX1 27 thereby eliminating redevelopment agencies and the voluntary
option to pay to continue redevelopment . All redevelopment agencies in California will

transferred to the successor agencies. On January 10, 2012 the City Council adopted a
resolution to be the successor agency to the Grand Terrace Community Redevelopment
Agency.
In June 2011, the Grand Terrace Community Redevelopment Agency sold the 2011 A
and 2011B Tax Allocation Bonds. There currently is $17,133.351 of unexpended bond
proceeds at this time.
DISCUSSION:
Staff recommends establishing a separate bank account for the successor agency due
to the upcoming dissolution of the redevelopment agency and the many unknown
issues regarding the wind-down of the Agency and the status of unexpended bond
proceeds combined with the desire to protect funds to the fullest extend possible.
Bond Counsel was consulted and agrees with recommendation that the City of Grand
Terrace, as Successor Agency, hold the bond proceeds in a separate bank account.

AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: January 30, 2012 Housing Authority Item ( X )
TITLE: Adoption of a Resolution Electing to Become the Successor
Housing Agency to the Grand Terrace Redevelopment
Agency
PRESENTED BY: Joyce Powers, Community and Economic Development
Director
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the Resolution electing to have the Grand Terrace
Housing Authority assume the housing assets and housing
functions previously performed by the Grand Terrace
Redevelopment Agency pursuant to Health & Safety Code
Section 34176.
BACKGROUND:
On December 29, 2011, the California Supreme Court (Court) upheld AB1X 26, which
dissolves all of the redevelopment agencies in California, and struck down AB1X 27,
which allowed redevelopment agencies to remain in existence if they opted in to the
Voluntary Alternative Redevelopment Program (VARP). The City had opted into the
VARP by adopting Ordinance No. 259. Because the Agency was going to remain in
existence, the City was not required to decide at that time whether it wished to be the
Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency and did not take action regarding the
housing functions retained by the Redevelopment Agency. However, on January 10,
2012, the City elected to become the Successor Agency to the Agency, including
assumption of the housing functions of the Redevelopment Agency.
DISCUSSION:
With the VARP stricken down by the Court, the Agency will be dissolved effective
February 1, 2012. With regard to the housing assets and functions previously
performed by the Agency, Health & Safety Code Section 34176 provides for the City to
retain these at its option, which was previously included in the Successor Agency
Resolution.
HOUSING AUTHORITY ITEM NO. 1
Approvals
Finance Director (if applicable) BS
City Attorney KHB
City Manager bma
The City Council adopted Resolution ___ on January 30, 2012 to transfer the housing
functions and assets to the Housing Authority. Authority staff and the City
Attorney/Authority Attorney recommend that the Housing Authority accept the role of
successor agency as to the housing functions and assets of the former Redevelopment
Agency from the City as Successor Agency in order to ensure that all housing
responsibilities and assets of the Agency are provided for. The funds in the Agency’s
low to moderate income fund are expressly excluded from the housing assets which
may be assumed by the City or Housing Authority. However, should subsequent
legislative action authorize the funds from the low to moderate income fund to be
retained by Successor Agencies, the Housing Authority would assume those funds to
carry out its statutory functions.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The complete fiscal impact of the abolishing of redevelopment agencies and the actions
required by AB x1 26 are unknown at this time. Staff is endeavoring to assess the
impact on the City and the Housing Authority at this time and a full report will be
provided to the Council and Authority Board at the earliest opportunity.

which allowed redevelopment agencies to remain in existence if City opted in to the
“Voluntary Alternative Redevelopment Program” (“VARP”); and
WHEREAS, the City had opted into the VARP by adopting Ordinance No. 259,
which by its own terms would be null and void if the VARP was struck down; and
WHEREAS, because the Agency was going to remain in existence, the City was
not required to decide whether it wished to be a Successor Agency to the Agency or
whether the City or Authority would retain the housing assets and functions previously

WHEREAS, in footnote 25 of the Supreme Court’s decision, the Court extended

AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: January 30, 2012 Council Item ( ) CRA Item ( X )
TITLE: Post AB x1-26 RDA Dissolution Required Action to Adopt
Revised Enforceable Obligation Payment Schedule and
Revised Draft Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule
PRESENTED BY: Bernie Simon, Finance Director
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt The Following Resolutions to:
1) Adopt Approving Enforceable Obligation Payment
Schedule and Draft Initial Recognized Obligation
Payment Schedule
2) Adopt Finding that Need for Bond Proceeds Exist and
Purpose of 2011 Tax Allocation Bond Proceeds can be
Achieved
BACKGROUND:
On December 29, 2011, in the CRA v. Matosantos case, the Court upheld ABX1 26 and
invalidated ABX1 27 thereby eliminating redevelopment agencies and the voluntary
option to pay to continue redevelopment . All redevelopment agencies in California will
be dissolved effective February 1, 2012 with assets, properties, and documents
transferred to the successor agencies. On January 10, 2012 the City Council adopted a
resolution to be the successor agency to the Grand Terrace Community Redevelopment
Agency.
The Agency board adopted the required Enforceable Obligation Payment Schedule
(EOPS) on August 23, 2011 and adopted the required preliminary draft Recognized
Obligation Payment Schedule (IROPS) on September 27, 2011 under H & S §34169.
By February 1, 2012, the CRA must adopt an Enforceable Obligation Payment
Schedule (EOPS) and By April 15, 2012 the Successor Agency must adopt a
CRA AGENDA ITEM NO. 1
Approvals
Finance Director (if applicable) B.S.
City Attorney KHB
City Manager bma
preliminary draft Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (IROPS) in accordance
with H & S §34177.
DISCUSSION:
Enforceable Obligation Payment Schedule (EOPS) – February 1, 2012 until valid ROPS
Staff used the initial EOPS from August 23, 2011 and updated the schedule for
enforceable obligations of the successor agency through June 30, 2012. The EOPS
also generally follows the budget and includes additional costs that may be anticipated
to wind down the agency through the end of the fiscal year. After February 1st, only the
obligations listed on the EOPS may be paid until a valid Recognized Obligation
Payment Schedule (ROPS) is recognized.
Generally under H & S §34171 an enforceable obligation means:
a) bonds, as defined by applicable code sections
b) Loans
c) Payments required by federal and state governments
d) Judgments and settlements
e) Any legal and binding agreement
f) Contracts necessary for administration or operations of the successor agency
g) Amounts borrowed from or owed to RDA Low Mod Fund
h) Excludes certain loans between agencies creating the redevelopment agency
and within certain periods.
Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) – May 1, 2012 and valid ROPS
The CRA submits a draft IROPS to the successor agency and the successor agency
must approve a final ROPS. The ROPS is a generally a summarized version of the
EOPS. Staff is drafting the ROPS to mirror the EOPS. After May 1, 2012, only the
payments listed on the ROPS may be paid by the successor agency and will replace the
EOPS. However, the final ROPS must be certified in order to be valid.
In order to be a certified, the ROPS must be:
1) audited by an external auditor for accuracy
2) submitted to and approved by the oversight board
3) a copy of the ROPS approved by the oversight board is submitted to the a)
County Auditor Controller, b) California Dept of Finance, c) posted on website of
successor agency.
A new ROPS schedule must be completed every six months.
Unresolved and Unclear issues
A) Administrative costs limitations – currently the proposed EOPS and ROPS does not
consider a 5.0% limit on property tax allocated to the Redevelopment Obligation
Retirement Fund allocated to the successor agency for fiscal year 2011-12 and 3.0%
thereafter. It is unclear how the limitation will work for the partial first year
implementation. There is also some vague language of what exactly an administrative
cost is.
B) Use of unencumbered bond proceeds – it is clear that encumbered bond proceeds
may still be used, however, it is less clear if the successor agency may use
unencumbered bond proceeds. The legislation does state that if the original purpose of
the proceeds cannot be achieved then the bonds must be defeased, however, it
appears that that determination may be made by the oversight committee. Proceeds
received from tax exempt bonds must be used for tax exempt purposes or there is risk
that the tax exempt status of the bonds sold may be jeopardized. In addition, the
legislation clearly states that bond proceeds shall be used for the purpose the bonds
were issued unless the purpose cannot be achieved. Staff believes that the obligation
to expend the proceeds for the intended purpose is dictated by the bond indenture and
tax certificate and therefore has listed the expending of the bond proceeds as an
obligation of the successor agency. Furthermore, staff believes that there is no reason
the purpose of the bond proceeds may not be achieved.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There are no fiscal impacts by the adoption of the resolutions.

TITLE: Transfer of ownership of parcels owned by the Agency’s Low
to Moderate Income Housing Fund to the City’s Housing
Authority
PRESENTED BY: Joyce Powers, Community and Economic Development
Director
RECOMMENDATION: 1. Approve the transfer of title to three properties acquired
by the Agency’s Low to Moderate Income Housing Fund to
the City’s Housing Authority, acting as the Successor
Agency, to comply with Assembly Bill XI 26.
2. Authorize the Executive Director to execute the three
attached Quitclaim Deeds and take all necessary related
actions.
3. Authorize the Executive Director/City Manager to
complete actions necessary to transfer Agency shares of
Riverside Highland water stock to the Housing Authority as
appropriate.
BACKGROUND:
On December 29, 2011, the State Supreme Court upheld Assembly Bill 26, which
amended the California Health and Safety Code (H & S Code), and thereby dissolved
redevelopment agencies. Under the new Health and Safety Code Section 34172, on
January 10, 2012, the City adopted a Resolution electing to be the dissolving Agency’s
successor for purposes of winding down the Agency’s activities. Pending any further
Court decisions or new legislation, the City is now obligated to undertake the required
actions, beginning February 1, 2012.

DISCUSSION:
H & S Code Section 34177 describes the responsibilities of the successor agencies,
including the disposal of the assets and properties of the former redevelopment agency.
Legal counsel has recommended to staff to transfer title to the three Agency’s
properties acquired with housing funds to the Housing Authority, acting as the
successor agency, before the Agency is dissolved by law on January 31, 2012. This
will allow the Housing Authority to property assume the Agency’s housing related duties
and accept the housing assets.
On January 24, 2012, the City and Agency took action to transfer title to 13 parcels
owned by the Agency’s 80% fund to the City as the successor agency. The Agency
also owns property acquired with Low to Moderate Income Housing funds, which are
the three additional parcels subject to this report’s recommendations.
The parcels to be transferred to the Housing Authority include:
1. APN 0275-251-04 at 11605 Canal Street
2. APN 1167-231-01 at 22293 Barton Road
3. APN 1167-311-01 at 22317 Barton Road
The Barton Road parcels are within a commercial zoning district, and 11695 Canal
Street is within a multi-family residential district. Staff has prepared the attached
Quitclaim Deeds transferring title to the City’s Housing Authority, acting as the
successor agency. Once approved and executed, the documents will be recorded on or
before January 31, 2012 unless new legislation or court order stalls the dissolution
process or redirects Agency actions. In addition, the Agency owns approximately four
shares of Riverside Highland water stock which would be transferred in conjunction with
the title transfers.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with preparation and approval of the Quitclaim
Deeds other than staff time and recording costs. Future fiscal impacts on the General
Fund as properties are sold is not known at this time.
