HUNTINGTON BEACH
To Paul Cook From Connie Brockway
City Administrator City Clerk
Subject Redevelopment Agency Date January 16, 1990
Resolution No. 48
I am transmitting the attached material on Resolution No. 48 for your
information. The City Attorney's office has replied that the minute action which
requires 2/3 participation should be followed.
As Resolution No. 48 is often referred to in RCA's presented for Council Action,
should Resolution No. 48 be amended to reflect the 2/3 requirement or whatever
requirement the present Council desires, as the minute action is liable to once
again be lost.

CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH
INTER-DEPARTMENT COMMUNICATION
HUNTINGTON BEACH
To Connie Brockway From Gail Hutton
City Clerk City Attorney
Subject Redevelopment Agency Resol . 48 Date January 10, 1990
BACKGROUND
Redevelopment Agency Resolution No. 48 requires that a DDA or
OPA be approved by at least 60% of the property owners within
the project site. Subsequently, the agency passed a motion by
minute action to change the requirement of 60% for participation
in a project area to two-thirds.
ISSUE
Does the minute action requiring approval by two-thirds of the
owners supersede Resolution 48?
CONCLUSION
Yes .
DISCUSSION
The general rule is that resolutions and minute orders are of
equal dignity and hold the same force and effect. (5 McQuillin,
Municipal Corporations, §§ 15.02, 15 . 08)
This rule has been adopted by the city in Charter Section 502,
which states that the City Council may act by resolution or
minute order in all actions not required by the Charter to be
taken by ordinance.
If the approval limit had been set by ordinance, it could only
have been amended by ordinance. Since the limit was set by
resolution, however, a minute order is legally sufficient to
Chan e it .

To Gail Hutton, City Attorney From Connie Brockway, City Clerk
Subject Redevelopment Agency Resolution No. 48 Date December 27, 1989
The city has been following Redevelopment Agency Resolution No. 48 adopted
9/7/82 which requires 60% participation.
A motion made on 7/18/83 requiring two-thirds participation has come to my
attention.
Should Resolution No. 48 be repealed and a new resolution presented to council?
Please let me know what you think.
Connie
P.S. I am also attaching 1/27/86 minutes which excludes a certain area of the
Main-Pier Redevelopment Project from Resolution 48. I am attaching this just for
your information as it also pertains to Resolution No. 48.
