B. (502) Pro eedy Acquisition
(503) AAc uisition of Real Property
The Agency may acquire real property by any means authorized by law,
including by gift, grant, exchange, purchase, cooperative negotiations,
lease or any other means authorized by law including eminent domain.
The Agency may acquire structures without acquiring the land upon which
those structures are located. The Agency may acquire any interest in real
property.
The Agency shall not acquire property to be retained by an owner pursuant
to a participation agreement if the owner fully performs under the
agreement. The Agency shall not acquire real property on which an
existing building is to be continued on its present site and in its present
\L4W1NTA\FZKM\SECT-5 4
form and use without the consent of the owner, unless, (1) such building
requires structural alterations, improvement, modernization, or
rehabilitation, or (2) the site or lot on which the building is situated requires
modification is size, shape or use, or (3) it is necessary to impose upon
such property any of the standards, restrictions and controls of this Plan
and the owner fails or refuses to participate in the Plan by executing a
participation agreement.
Except as otherwise provided herein, or otherwise provided by law, no
eminent domain proceeding to acquire property within the Project Area
shall be commenced after twelve (12) years following the date of adoption
of the ordinance approving and adopting this Plan. Such time limitation
may be extended only by amendment of this Plan.
2. (504) Acquisition of Personal ProgeM1
Where necessary in the execution of this Plan, the Agency is authorized to
acquire personal property in the Project Area by any lawful means.
C. (505) Particpation by Owners and Tenants
(506) Owner and Tenant Participation
The Agency shall promulgate rules for owner and tenant participation

reasonable preference to persons who are owners or tenants in the Project
Area to continue in or re-enter the redeveloped area if they otherwise meet
the requirements prescribed by this Plan and the Agency's rules governing
owner participation and re-entry; such rules allow for "Owner Participation
Agreements" with the Agency.
The Agency desires participation in redevelopment by as many owners
and business tenants as possible. However, participation opportunities
shall necessarily be subject to and limited by such factors as the expansion
of public facilities; elimination and changing of land uses; realignment of
streets; the ability of the Agency and/or owners to finance acquisition and
development in accordance with this Plan; and any reduction in the total
number of individual parcels in the Project Area.
2. (507) Participation Agreements
Under a participation agreement the participant shall agree to rehabilitate,
develop, or use the property in conformance with the Plan and be subject
to the provisions hereof. In the agreement, participants who retain real
property shall be required to join in the recordation of such documents as
are necessary to make the provisions of this Plan applicable to their
properties.
In the event a participant breaches the terms of a participation agreement,
the Agency shall declare the agreement terminated and may acquire the
real property or any interest therein.
Where the Agency determines that a proposal for participation is not
feasible, is not in the best interests of the Agency or City, or that
\1AWINTA\RDKM\SECTS 5
M
E.
F
G
redevelopment can best be accomplished without affording an owner or
tenant an opportunity to execute a participation agreement, the Agency
shall not be required to execute such an agreement with that owner or
tenant.
(508) Certificates of Conformance
The Agency is authorized to make determinations of those properties which
conform to this Plan. If such a determination is made by the Agency, the Agency
may issue a Certificate of Conformance to qualifying properties and such property
will not be subject to acquisition by eminent domain under this Plan so long as the
property continues to conform to this Plan and to such further terms and
conditions as the Agency may require, by conditioning the issuance of a
Certificate of Conformance as necessary or appropriate to carry out this Plan.
(509) Cooperation with Public Bodies
Certain public bodies are authorized by State law to aid and cooperate with or
without consideration, in the planning and implementation activities authorized by
this Plan. The Agency shall seek the aid and cooperation of such public bodies
and shall attempt to coordinate Plan implementation activities with the activities of
such public bodies in order to accomplish the purposes of redevelopment and the
highest public good.
The Agency, by law, is not authorized to acquire real property owned by public
bodies without consent of such public bodies. The Agency, however, shall seek
the cooperation of all public bodies which own or intend to acquire property in the
Project Area. Any public body which owns or leases property in the Project Area
will be afforded all the privileges of owner and tenant participation if such public
body is willing to enter into a participation agreement with the Agency. All plans
for development of property in the Project Area by a public body shall be subject
to Agency approval.
The Agency may impose on all public bodies the planning and design controls
contained in and authorized by this Plan ensure that present uses and any future
development by public bodies will conform to the requirements of this Plan. The

or outside the Project Area) which land, buildings, facilities, structures, or other
improvements are of benefit to the Project.

During such time as property, if any, in the Project Area is owned by the Agency,
such property shall be under the management and control of the Agency. Such
property may be rented or leased by the Agency pending its final disposition for
redevelopment.
(511) Payments to Taxing_ Agencies to Alleviate Financial Burden
As provided for in Health and Safety Code Section 33401, the Agency may pay an
amount of money in liep of taxes in any year during which it owns property in the
Project Area. Such payment shall be made directly to the City, County or special
district, including, but not limited to, a school district, or other public corporation
\IACUINTA\RO 4M\SECT-6 6
for whose benefit a tax would have been levied upon such property had it not
been exempt. A proportionate share of any amount of money paid by the Agency
to any city and county pursuant to this subdivision shall be disbursed by the city
and county to any school district with territory located within a redevelopment
project area in the city and county. 'Proportionate share", as used in this section,
means the ratio of the school district tax rate, which is included in the total tax rate
of the city and county.
The Agency may also pay to any taxing agency with territory located within a
project area other than the community which has adopted the project, any
amounts of money which the Agency has found are necessary and appropriate to
alleviate any financial burden or detriment caused to any taxing agency by a
redevelopment project. The payments to a taxing agency in any single year shall
not exceed the amount of property tax revenues which would have been received
by that taxing agency if all the property tax revenues from the project area had
been allocated to all the affected taxing agencies without regard to the division of
taxes required by Section 33670, except that a greater payment may be
established by agreement between the Agency and one or more taxing agencies,
except a school district, if the other taxing agencies agree to defer payments of
one or more years in order to accomplish the purposes of the project at an earlier
time than would otherwise be the case. The amount of any greater payments
shall not exceed the amount of payment deferred. The payments shall be
approved by a resolution, adopted by the Agency, which shall contain findings,
supported by substantial evidence, that the redevelopment project will cause or
has caused a financial burden or detriment to the taxing agency and that the
payments are necessary to alleviate the financial burden or detriment.
The requirement that the Agency may make payments to a taxing entity only to
alleviate a financial burden or detriment, as defined in Section 33012 of the
Redevelopment Law, and only after approval by a resolution which contains
specified findings, shall apply only to payments made by the Agency pursuant to
an agreement between the Agency and a taxing entity which is executed by the
Agency on or after the effective date of amendments to Section 33401 of the
Redevelopment Law enacted by the Statutes of 1984.

race, color, creed, religion, national origin, ancestry, sex, or marital
