TAX ALLOCATION BOND DOCUMENTS Executive Director reviewed report of Director of Community Development, dated December 7, 1977, and recommended authorizing Agency consultants Stone 9 Youngberg and O'Melveny D Myers, to proceed with documentation necessary to sell up to $3.3 million of tax allocation bonds. He stated that such action will pave the way for the Agency to sell the bonds if it desires to do so; that the report outlines proposed expenditure of the funds; and that there should be some indication whether the business inventory tax will be eliminated by the time the ' Agency needs to make a decision relative to the bond sale. In answer to questions by the Agency, Executive Director reported that the debt reserve funds could be used to make the final payment on the bonds or converted for project funding, once the debt is repaid. He also stated that expenditure of any unallocated bond funds would be subject to review and approval of the Agency; that any or all available bond funds could be expended for projects within the redevelopment area boundaries; that existing consultant agreements call for Agency approval of work in connection with a major project; that fees represent a percentage of the total amount of the bond sale, in accordance with the established agreement; that the bonds will he repaid through tax increment financing and in no way would the debt become an obligation of the property taxpayer; and that relative to the elimination of the business inventory tax, the Agency and consultants will want to be extremely conservative and tailor the bond issue to what the Agency can afford to pay. Mrs. Beadling noted that even with the loss of the business ' inventory tax, the expenditure of the bond funds should generate additional tax increment revenues. I -i ) CRA Minutes 12-21-77 Page 2 1.

He stated that meetings with tenants and property owners have indicated a favorable response to the project; that property owners would be asked to do extensive work, through participation agreements, and that the Agency in turn would commit to the acqui- sition and development of a public parking facility reserving the right to begin such work until participa- tion agreements are obtained. fie stated that the public improvement is proposed to be financed through tax allocation bonds; that the concept and proposal have been reviewed in several study sessions; and that he recommended approving the concept and authorizing necessary appraisals.

REDEVELOPMENT AREA - SURVEY AREA NO. 2 Executive Director reviewed report of Director of Community Development, dated December 7, 1977, and recommended that the Agency appropriate necessary funds to accomplish the reimbursement of $13,100 to Henry Dally, which was advanced by him to cover funding of studies for Survey Area No 2. He stated that it was understood the funds would be refunded if the project proceeded; however, although Mr. Dally adhered to the agreement and the Downtown Development Advisory Com- mission had recommended approval of the project, as a result of an informal public hearing, the Planning Commission denied the preliminary plan to expand the redevelopment area, placing the developer in a position of not being able to proceed. He stated that in light of the community's reaction to the project, it was not ' worth pursuing after the Planning Commission's denial, and the Downtown Development Advisory Commission recom- mended that as a matter of equity the ,funds should be reimbursed to Mr. Dally, with the Agency paying the $7,745 which has been spent to date. This. matter was also reviewed in detail at the last study session, at which time it was pointed out that Mr. Dally has addi- tionally spent funds for architectural services and in putting together a financing package. Resolution 78 was presented, entitled: OF THE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING REIMBURSEMENT OF FUNDS ADVANCED BY HENRY DALLY FOR THE STUDY OF SURVEY AREA NO. 2 AND APPROVING A BUDGET AMENDMENT FOR THE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY REDEVELOPMENT FUND TO PROVIDE FUNDS THEREFOR.
