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. CC: City Council 0994K 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 .
