Resolution No. 23071, also designated the City as the entity responsible for performing the housing functions previously performed by the Redevelopment Agency and authorizing the transfer to the City of the Redevelopment Agency's housing assets and functions. On June 27, 2012, the Legislature passed and the Governor signed Assembly Bill No. 1484 ("AB 1484", Chapter 26, Statutes 2012). AB 26 and AB 1484, as further amended, are collectively referred to herein as the "Dissolution Act". Section 34171(d)(1)(G) of the Dissolution Act provides for the repayment, and deposit into the Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund of the City, of funds that had been borrowed from the Redevelopment Agency's Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund to make Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund ("ERAF") and Supplemental Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund ("SERAF") payments. The Redevelopment Agency had borrowed money from its Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund for purposes of making ERAF and SERAF payments ("Loans"). The Loans are outstanding in the amount of $4,055,879.

DOF notified the City that it did not object to the transfer of the Loans to the City. Prior to 1986, the Redevelopment Agency deferred $1,532,669 of deposits of 20% of tax increment from the Central Business District Redevelopment Project to the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund pursuant to a Statement of Existing Obligations ("Deferral"). Section 34171(d)(1)(G) of the Dissolution Act also provides for the repayment, and deposit into the Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund of the City, of payments owing to the Redevelopment Agency's Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund which had been deferred, such as the Deferral. However, Section 34171(d)(1)(G) of the Dissolution Act requires the Oversight Board to approve the repayment schedule for the Loans and the Deferral. Furthermore, Section 34176(e)(6) of the Dissolution Act sets forth the formula for determining the maximum amount of annual payments on the Loans and the Deferral. The City is requesting the Oversight Board approve the repayment schedule for the Loans, which is attached to the Resolution as Attachment 1, and authorize the Successor Agency to place on each Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule ('BOPS") the maximum payment on the Loans that is permitted for that ROPS period by the Dissolution Act.
