The correct and legal way to fund these activities is for the General Fund of the City to lend the Agency's Capital Projects Funds the amount necessary to cover administrative and capital project costs. The loans are then annually repaid to the City by the Agency's Debt Service Fund. This is similar to how a bond Issue works, where the proceeds of the issue are deposit are placed in the Capital Projects Funds to be utilized, while the repayment of the bonds comes from the Debt Service Fund. This is the accepted and established mechanism for funding the Capital Projects Fund, practiced by more than 90% of the redevelopment agencies statewide.
