Prepare announcements of the significant events including payment defaults, defeasances and draws on a reserve fund as the events occur. In September 1996, the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency entered into a contract with at that time MuniFinancial and now Willdan Financial Services to provide the aforementioned annual reports. With the dissolution of the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency (RDA) by February 1, 2012, staff is requesting that the successor agency for the RDA housing activities, in this case the La Quinta Housing Authority enter into this contract.

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: Upon dissolution of the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency under ABx1 26, all assets and liabilities associated with the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency's housing programs and projects will be transferred to the La Quinta Housing Authority. Whether it will be able to retain and utilize the assets is unknown. BACKGROUND AND OVERVIEW: On December 29, 2011, the California Supreme Court upheld ABx1 26, which dissolves all redevelopment agencies in California, effective February 1, 2012. ABx1 26 requires the designation of a successor agency; therefore, on January 3, 2012, the City of La Quinta adopted a resolution electing to serve as the Successor Agency to the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency. California Health & Safety Code Section 341761b►(2) provides that all rights, powers, assets, liabilities, duties, and obligations associated with the housing activities of a redevelopment agency would automatically be transferred to the local Housing Authority unless a City elects to retain the housing assets and housing functions. By adoption of this resolution, the Housing Authority is expressing its intention to accept all rights, powers, assets, liabilities, duties, and obligations associated with the housing activities of the former La Quinta Redevelopment Agency. 025 As part of this asset transfer, the La Quinta Housing Authority would assume 112 sewer subsidy loans (which were granted to homeowners in the late 1990's/early 2000's, and are repaid upon sale of the house or by owner's choice); one residential rehabilitation loan from 2004 (the owner is currently making monthly payments); and 415 silent second trust deed loans. It should be noted that the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency's housing real property assets were transferred to the Housing Authority in March 2011, except for the Coral Mountain Apartment property, which consists of approximately 9 acres, with a cost of $10,626,276. Upon dissolution of the RDA, the property will automatically revert to the Housing Authority. . A complete list is included as Attachment 1. FINDINGS AND ALTERNATIVES: The alternatives available to the Housing Authority Board include: 1. Adopt a Resolution of the La Quinta Housing Authority electing to have all rights, assets, and liabilities associated with the housing activities of the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency transferred to the La Quinta Housing Authority; or 2. Do not adopt a Resolution of the La Quinta Housing Authority electing to have all rights, assets, and liabilities associated with the housing activities of the La Quinta Redevelopment Agency transferred to the La Quinta Housing Authority; or 3.

Low income housing is assisted through Section 8 of the US Housing Act.

N Specific Attitudes Skills and expertise which would enhance the work of the La Quinta Housing Commission. I believe that a community must have housing available for seniors and families with low incomes so they have an opportunity to live, work, and enjoy the opportunities in La Quinta. This insures, a well balanced population, which includes all income and age groups. It is also important that families with school age children have the opportunity to have their children attend the schools in La Quinta as this also balances the classrooms with students from differing economic backgrounds which contributes to every child's social and educational experience during their school years. My interest in Real Estate began in college and my degree is in finance and real estate. As a prosecutor in Monterey County I learned that poorly designed housing projects can contribute to increased incidents of crime. I have owned, managed, built, and remodeled residential and commercial real estate in California and Florida for over twenty years. I have a thorough knowledge of construction and financing. At the present time, I volunteer mediation for the small claims division of the Riverside Superior Court, and consulting for SCORE, a partner of the Small Business Administration, at the Palm Desert office. My service on boards of directors contributed to my ability to work with groups and commissions. I believe that my broad life experience would be an asset to the La Quinta Housing Commission. n43 Date: 12/01/11 CITY OF LA QUINTA APPLICATION TO SERVE ON THE LA QUINTA HOUSING COMMISSION NAME: Michele McDonough c'> HOME ADDRESS: 54400 Ave Vallejo, La Quinta Ca 92253 (Must be a La Quinta resident and eligible to vote in the City.) c) c TELEPHONE: (HOME).949-466-2707 BUSINESS: 760-771-5661 -0 o F.
