AB502:v97#DOCUMENT
An act to add Title 7.84 (commencing with Section 67645) to the Government Code, relating to the Concord Naval Weapons Reuse Authority. An act to amend Sections 34194 and 34195 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to redevelopment.
AB 502, as amended, Bonilla. Land use: general plan: housing element. Alternative Voluntary Redevelopment Program: military bases.
Existing law suspends various activities of redevelopment agencies and prohibits the agencies from incurring indebtedness for a specified period. Existing law dissolves redevelopment agencies and community development agencies, as of October 1, 2011, and designates successor agencies, as defined. Existing law exempts from dissolution a redevelopment agency of a community where the city or county that created the agency participates in an alternative voluntary redevelopment program, where, among other things, the city or county makes remittances for deposit in the Special District Allocation Fund, as prescribed. Existing law imposes specified sanctions if a city or county fails to make the remittance and the Director of Finance makes a specified determination.
This bill would exempt a participating community from being required to remit any amounts that are calculated based on tax increment revenues received for a project area that includes within its boundaries a military base that has been closed or realigned by the federal government. In the event a community fails to make the required remittance, the bill would permit the community to continue to function, to a limited extent, if the community contains a project area that includes within its boundaries a military base closed or realigned by the federal government and one or more project areas that do not include a closed or realigned base.
The Fort Ord Reuse Authority Act authorizes the County of Monterey, and specified cities within that county to establish the Fort Ord Reuse Authority to, among other things, plan for, finance, and manage the transition of the property known as Fort Ord from military to civilian use.
This bill would authorize Contra Costa County and the City of Concord to establish the Concord Naval Weapons Station Reuse Authority to plan for, finance, and manage the transition of the property formerly known as the Concord Naval Weapons Station from military to civilian use.
This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the County of Contra Costa.
Section 34194 of the Health and Safety Code is amended to read:
(c) For the 2012–13 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter a participating community shall remit an amount equal to the sum of the amounts specified in paragraphs (1) and (2), except as adjusted by paragraph (4):
(4) A participating community shall be exempt from the annual remittance amount required pursuant to this subdivision that is calculated based on tax increment revenues received for a project area that includes within its boundaries a military base that has been closed or realigned by the federal government. For a participating community that receives tax increment revenue from both a project area that includes a closed or realigned military base within its boundaries and one or more project areas that do not include a closed or realigned military base, the annual remittance amount required to be paid pursuant to this subdivision shall be the sum of the amount that would be calculated pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2) based solely on the tax increment revenue received by the agency from project area that does not include a closed or realigned military base within its boundaries and the new debt or obligations incurred by the agency pursuant to redevelopment projects that do not include a closed military base within the project area boundary.
Section 34195 of the Health and Safety Code is amended to read:
(a) The city or county shall no longer be authorized to engage in voluntary redevelopment pursuant to this part and the redevelopment agency shall become immediately subject to the provisions of Part 1.8 (commencing with Section 34161) and Part 1.85 (commencing with 34170), except as specified in subdivision (c).
(c) (1) This subdivision applies to a community that does all of the following:
(A) Includes within its jurisdiction a redevelopment project area that contains within its boundaries a military base that has been closed or realigned by the federal government.
(B) Includes within its jurisdiction a redevelopment project area that does not contain a closed or realigned military base.
(C) Fails to pay the annual remittance amount pursuant to paragraph (4) of subdivision (c) of Section 34194.
(2) A community that meets the requirements of paragraph (1) may continue to carry out and implement the redevelopment plan for a redevelopment project that includes a closed or realigned military base in accordance with Part 1 (commencing with Section 33000), Part 1.5 (commencing with Section 34000), Part 1.6 (commencing with Section 34050), and Part 1.7 (commencing with Section 34100), and any other applicable law pertaining to the agency and its legislative body with respect to the redevelopment plan including, but not limited to, any law pertaining to the activation, activities, and operations of, the incurring of indebtedness by, and the allocation of tax increment to, the agency with respect to the plan. A redevelopment project area of the community that does not include a closed or realigned military base shall be immediately subject to Part 1.8 (commencing with Section 34161) and Part 1.85 (commencing with Section 34170), except that the agency shall not be dissolved, but shall be permitted only to carry out and implement a project that includes a closed or realigned base, as permitted by this subdivision.
SECTION 1.Title 7.84 (commencing with Section 67645) is added to the Government Code, to read:
7.84.CONCORD NAVAL WEAPONS STATION REUSE AUTHORITY
67645.
This title shall be known and may be cited as the Concord Naval Weapons Station Reuse Authority Act.
67645.1.
The Legislature hereby finds and declares the following goals to be the policy of the state of California:
(a)To facilitate the transfer and reuse of the real and other property comprising the military reservation known as the Concord Naval Weapons Station with all practical speed.
(b)To minimize the disruption caused by the base’s closure on the civilian economy and the people of Contra Costa County and the bay area.
(c)To provide for the reuse and development of the base area in ways that enhance the economy and quality of life of the Contra Costa County and bay area community.
(d)To maintain and protect the unique environmental resources of the area.
67645.2.
(a)The policy set forth in Section 67645.1 is most likely to be achieved if an effective governmental structure exists to plan for, finance, and carry out the transfer and reuse of the base in a cooperative, coordinated, balanced, and decisive manner.
(b)Contra Costa County and the City of Concord have requested the Legislature to establish a governmental structure for the Concord Naval Weapons Station.
67645.5.
Contra Costa County and the City of Concord may establish the Concord Naval Weapons Station Reuse Authority upon the adoption of resolutions favoring the establishment of the authority by the governing bodies of those agencies, to plan for, finance, and manage the transition of the property known as the Concord Naval Weapons Station from military to civilian use.
The Legislature finds and declares that a special law is necessary and that a general law cannot be made applicable within the meaning of Section 16 of Article IV of the California Constitution because of the unique need in Contra Costa County to facilitate the use of the Concord Naval Weapons Station from military to civilian use.
