NAME POSITION CLASSIFICATION”

(b) Documents adopted pursuant to subdivision (a) may include a requirement that taxes, including possessory interest taxes, levied upon taxable property within the project area after the effective date of the resolution adopting the document or documents be divided as follows:

(1) The portion of the taxes which would be produced by the rate upon which the tax is levied each year by or for each of the taxing agencies upon the total sum of the assessed value of the taxable property in the project area as shown upon the assessment roll used in connection with the taxation of the property by the taxing agency, last equalized prior to the effective date of the resolution, shall be allocated to, and when collected shall be paid into, the funds of the respective taxing agencies, as taxes by or for said taxing agencies on all other property are paid (for the purpose of allocating taxes levied by or for any taxing agency or agencies which did not include the territory in the project area on the effective date of the resolution but to which the territory has been annexed or otherwise included after the effective date, the assessment roll of the county last equalized on the effective date of said resolution shall be used in determining the assessed valuation of the taxable property in the project area on said effective dates).

(2) The portion of said levied taxes each year in excess of that amount shall be allocated to, and when collected shall be paid into, a special fund of the authority to pay the principal of and interest on loans, moneys advanced to, or indebtedness (whether funded, refunded, assumed or otherwise) incurred by the authority to finance or refinance, in whole or in part, the redevelopment of the project area. Unless and until the total assessed valuation of the taxable property in the project exceeds the total assessed value of the taxable property in the project area as shown by the last equalized assessment roll referred to in paragraph (1), all of the taxes levied and collected upon the taxable property in the project area shall be paid into the funds of the respective taxing agencies. When these loans, advances, and indebtedness, if any, and interest thereon have been paid, then all moneys thereafter received from taxes upon the taxable property in the project area shall be paid into the funds of the respective taxing agencies as taxes on all other property are paid.

(3) For the purpose of allocating taxes pursuant to the document prepared pursuant to this section, the base year shall remain fiscal year 1979–80. Commencing with the fiscal year 1982–83, the 1979–80 base year roll shall be adjusted to reflect the revised project area as set forth in subdivision (a) of Section 8180.

(4) For the purposes of the document prepared pursuant to this section for the portion of the project area set forth in paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 8180 (the R Street Area), the base year shall be the 2001–02 fiscal year. Commencing with the 2002–03 fiscal year, the 2001–02 base year roll shall be adjusted to reflect the project area set forth in paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 8180.

(5) The authority shall separately account for the receipt and expenditures of the allocation of taxes and rents from state-owned and leased property derived from that portion of the project area described in paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 8180 (the R Street Area).

(6) The authority may not expend or otherwise use the allocation of taxes and rents from state-owned and leased property received from any other portion of the project area outside of that portion of the project area described in paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 8180 (the R Street Area), within the R Street Area unless otherwise approved in writing between the authority and the Director of General Services.

(c) In the proceedings for the advance of moneys, or making of loans, or the incurring of any indebtedness (whether funded, refunded, assumed or otherwise) by the authority to finance or refinance, in whole or in part, the redevelopment project, the portion of taxes mentioned in paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) may be irrevocably pledged for the payment of the principal of and interest on said loans, advances, or indebtedness.

(d) Any documents designated to be incorporated into the redevelopment plan may be adopted at any regular or special meeting of the authority. Notice of the authority’s intent to adopt the document shall be stated in the agenda prepared in connection with the meeting at which the document is adopted, which agenda shall be made available to the public in the manner specified in Section 54956. No other notice shall be required in connection with the adoption of these documents.
