NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The City Council hereby finds and determines that the foregoing recitals are true and correct. Section 2. Based on substantial evidence in the record, including, without limitation, all documents referenced herein,any oral and written staff reports,and any evidence and testimony received, the City Council hereby finds and determines that: a. The Public Improvements are of benefit to the Project Area and the immediate neighborhood in which the Public Improvements are located. This determination is based, in part,on the fact that the Public Improvements are in the best interests of the City and the health, safety, morals and welfare of its taxpayers,employees,business tenants, property owners and residents. The Report to Council, including, without limitation,the Agency's Five Year Implementation Plan for the Project Area,which was prepared in connection with the adoption of the Redevelopment Plan is hereby inc orporated by reference. An enumerated goal of the Five Year Implementation 1 m p e e Plan is to"[u]ndertake public improvements,in,and of benefit to,the[p]roject[a]rea In addition, the "Public Infrastructure and Facility Program" is a specific program listed in the Five Year Implementation Plan. This program is intended to assist with construction of public improvements in the Project Area which address substandard and inadequate infrastructure in the Project Area. Two other goals of the Redevelopment Plan will also be achieved by the implementation of this program: first,to permit the Agency to assist with park and trail improvements and, second,to ensure Project Area revenues are pledged to projects that directly benefit the Project Area. Pursuant to the Five Year Implementation Plan,this program will address the following conditions of blight identified in the Project Area: factors hindering viable use, impaired investments and inadequate public improvements; cgAHB1S.E.Coastal Cap Improvements\City33445Reso(8-18-03) Page 2 Resolution No. 2003-68 b. No other reasonable means of financing the Public Improvements are available to the City. This determination is based, in part, on the fact that the City itself is not in a position to finance the Public Improvements. The City is having difficulty fully assuming the costs of anticipated and needed public capital improvements. Without the assistance of tax increment funding from the Project Area, capital improvements in other parts of the City would have to be deferred or eliminated in order to fund the Public Improvements. Given the constraints on financing sources which are under the direction of the City,all anticipated and needed public capital improvements cannot be completed using only City funds. It is clear that there must be a combination of tax increment and non-tax increment funding; and c. The payment of funds by the Agency for the costs related to the Public Improvements will assist in the elimination of one or more blighting conditions within the Project Area and is consistent with the Agency's Five-Year Implementation Plan for the Project Area. This determination is based, in part,on the information contained in paragraph a., above. Section 3. The City Council hereby consents to the payment of funds by the Agency pursuant to the Agreement. The proposed Agreement is hereby approved in substantially the form presented at this meeting,with such minor changes as may be approved by the City Administrator with the approval as to form by the City Attorney. The obligations of the Agency under the Agreement shall constitute an indebtedness of the Agency for the purpose of carrying out the Redevelopment Plan for the Project Area. Section 4. The Mayor or the City Administrator are each hereby authorized to execute the Agreement on behalf of the City. A copy of the Agreement when executed by the City shall be placed on file in the office of the City Clerk. Section 5. The City Administrator (or the Director of Economic Development) is hereby authorized,on behalf of the City,to sign all documents necessary and appropriate to carry out and implement the Agreement, and to administer the City's obligations, responsibilities and duties to be performed thereunder. cg:1HB\S.H.Coasta1 Cap I nprovements\City33445Reso(S-I M3) Page 3 Resolution No. 2003-68 Approved and adopted this 2nd day of September , 2003. &'X1' ?a7h4a4--' Mayor ATTEST: APPROVED AS TO FORM: d044 owoiwa;�— r City Clerk C' Atto 'ey /3 APPROVED AS TO FORM: See other signature page Kane, Ballmer& Berkman Special Counsel for the City REVIEWED AND APPROV D: City Administrator INITIATED AND APPROVED: Dfrector of Economic Development cgAHBIS.E.Coastal Cap Improvements,City33445Reso(8-18-03) Page 4 Resolution No. 2003-68 Approved and adopted this day of 12003.
