33486.  (a) For the purpose of allocating taxes pursuant to Section 33670 and subject to the provisions of this article, redevelopment project areas under the jurisdiction of a redevelopment agency for which redevelopment plans have been adopted pursuant to Article 5 (commencing with Section 33360), may be merged, without regard to contiguity of the areas, by the amendment of each affected redevelopment plan as provided in Article 12 (commencing with Section 33450). Before adopting the ordinance amending each affected redevelopment plan, the legislative body shall find, based on substantial evidence, that both of the following conditions exist:(1) Significant blight remains within one of the project areas.(2) This blight cannot be eliminated without merging the project areas and the receipt of property taxes.(b) (1) Except as provided in paragraph (2), taxes attributable to each project area merged pursuant to this section that are allocated to the redevelopment agency pursuant to Section 33670 may be allocated to the entire merged project area for the purpose of paying the principal of, and interest on, indebtedness incurred by the redevelopment agency to finance or refinance, in whole or in part, the merged redevelopment project.(2) If the redevelopment agency has, prior to merger of redevelopment project areas, incurred any indebtedness on account of a constituent project area so merged, taxes attributable to that area that are allocated to the agency pursuant to Section 33670 shall be first used to comply with the terms of any bond resolution or other agreement pledging the taxes from the constituent project area.(c) After the merger of redevelopment projects pursuant to subdivision (a), the clerk of the legislative body shall transmit a copy of the ordinance amending the plans for projects to be merged to the governing body of each of the taxing agencies that receives property taxes from or levies property taxes upon any property in the project.(Amended by Stats. 2006, Ch. 595, Sec. 14.

33492.  With enactment of this chapter, it is the intent of the Legislature to do both of the following:(a) Provide a means of mitigating the economic and social degradation that is faced by communities the jurisdictions of which include military bases that have been ordered to be closed or realigned by the federal Base Closure Commission.(b) Enable redevelopment agencies to place in a project area portions of a military base that were previously developed, but that cannot be utilized in their present condition because of, in whole or in part, substandard infrastructure and buildings that do not meet state building standards. It is not the intent of the Legislature to encourage redevelopment agencies to include large areas of undeveloped land within project areas.(Amended by Stats. 1996, Ch. 221, Sec. 2.

The project area may include territory outside the military base; however, all territory outside the military base included therein shall be characterized as predominantly urbanized, as that term is defined in subdivision (b) of Section 33320.1. The procedures authorized by this chapter may be used for the redevelopment of any closed or realigned military base, but shall not constitute the exclusive method by which redevelopment may occur on these bases.(Amended by Stats. 1996, Ch. 221, Sec. 3. Effective July 22, 1996.)

33492.5.  (a)  In any community in which a military base is located, the Base Closure Commission has voted to close that military base, and the action of the Base Closure Commission has been sustained by the President and Congress of the United States, a project area may be adopted pursuant to the following requirements: (1)  If the project area is located entirely within the boundaries of a city, or city and county, then the redevelopment agency of the city, or city and county, may adopt the redevelopment project area pursuant to this part as modified by this chapter. (2)  If the project area is located entirely within the unincorporated area of a single county, then the county redevelopment agency may adopt the redevelopment project area pursuant to this part as modified by this chapter. (3)  If the project area includes property within the jurisdictions of two or more cities, or two or more counties, or a city and a county, or any combination of the foregoing, then all of the cities and counties the jurisdictions of which include property within the boundaries of the military base and any other territory to be included within the redevelopment project area may enter into a joint powers agreement, an agreement entered into pursuant to Section 33210, or other appropriate agreement for the purpose of creating a redevelopment agency and adopting a project area pursuant to this part as modified by this chapter. (b)  A redevelopment agency to which this chapter is applicable may adopt a project area either pursuant to this chapter or pursuant to other relevant provisions of this part.

33492.7.  (a)  Paragraph (11) of subdivision (d) of Section 33367 shall not apply to the territory within the military base for any redevelopment project area adopted pursuant to this chapter. (b)  For any project area adopted pursuant to this chapter, Section 33492.11 may be used in lieu of Section 33031. (Added by Stats. 1993, Ch. 944, Sec. 4. Effective October 8, 1993.)

33492.9.  Notwithstanding any other provision of law, in each county in which a redevelopment agency is formed, or a redevelopment plan is adopted, pursuant to this chapter, the county auditor shall certify to the Director of Finance the date of the final day of the first fiscal year in which one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) or more of tax increment funds from the redevelopment project area adopted pursuant to this chapter are paid to the redevelopment agency pursuant to subdivision (d) of Section 33675.(Added by Stats. 1993, Ch. 944, Sec. 4.

CA Health & Safety Code § 33492.10 (2021)

33492.10.  (a)  For purposes of this chapter, a blighted area within the boundaries of a military base is an area in which the combination of two or more conditions set forth in Section 33492.11 is so prevalent and so substantial that it causes a reduction of, or lack of, proper utilization of the area to an extent that constitutes a serious physical and economic burden on the community which cannot reasonably be expected to be reversed or alleviated by private enterprise or governmental action, or both, without redevelopment. (b)  A project area adopted pursuant to this chapter may include territory outside the boundaries of the military base, as those boundaries exist on January 1, 1996; however, all territory outside the boundaries of the military base included in the project area shall be characterized by blight, as that term is defined in Sections 33030 and 33031. An area outside the boundaries of a military base may be included in the project area only upon a finding by the agency that the area is blighted and that its inclusion in the project area is necessary for effective redevelopment of the base property. The agency shall include evidence supporting this finding in the report submitted to the legislative body pursuant to Section 33352. An area outside the boundaries of a military base shall be deemed not necessary for effective redevelopment if the area is included only for the purpose of obtaining the allocation of taxes from the area pursuant to Section 33670 without other substantial justification for its inclusion. (c)  This section, as amended by the act that adds this subdivision, shall only be applicable to a redevelopment plan adopted or amended on or after the effective date of the act that adds this subdivision. A redevelopment plan adopted pursuant to this chapter prior to the effective date of the act that adds this subdivision shall be subject to this section as it was added by Chapter 944 of the Statutes of 1993. (Amended by Stats. 1996, Ch. 221, Sec. 4.5. Effective July 22, 1996.)

33492.15.  Notwithstanding any other provision of law, all of the following shall occur:(a)  The agency shall make the payments required by Section 33607.5, except that each of the time periods governing the payments shall be calculated from the date the county auditor makes the certification to the Director of Finance pursuant to Section 33492.9, instead of from the first year that the agency receives tax-increment revenue. (b)  Prior to incurring any bonded indebtedness, any agency administering a project area pursuant to this chapter may subordinate to the bonded debt the amount required to be paid to an affected school district or community college district pursuant to this section upon a finding, based upon substantial evidence, that the agency will have sufficient funds available to pay both the bonded debt payments and the payments required by this section. (Amended by Stats. 1996, Ch. 221, Sec. 6. Effective July 22, 1996.)

33492.16.  (a)  Notwithstanding Section 33334.2 or any other provision of law, an agency established or governed pursuant to this chapter may annually defer the requirement to allocate 20 percent of tax increment revenue to the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund for a period of up to five years after the date of adoption of the redevelopment plan, based upon an annual finding of the legislative body that the funds are necessary for the effective redevelopment of base property and long-term tax generation, and that the vacancy rate for housing affordable to lower income households within the jurisdiction of the members of the agency is greater than 4 percent. The vacancy rate for housing affordable to lower income households shall be established by using the vacancy rates most recently published in the annual California Department of Finance Population and Housing Estimates (Report E-5, or a successor report). The authority and procedures for deferral of allocation of tax increment revenue which is governed by this section shall not apply to the tax increment revenues attributable to the property that is located outside the military base which is allocated to the Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund.(b)  The amount of the deferral, if any, shall be considered an indebtedness of the agency, and shall be paid into the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund no later than the end of the 20th fiscal year after the date on which the agency adopts its project. If the indebtedness is not eliminated by the end of the 20th fiscal year, the county auditor or controller, no later than March 15 of the 21st year, shall withhold from the portion of tax increment to which the redevelopment agency is otherwise entitled an amount equal to the indebtedness and deposit those funds into a separate Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund for use by the agency to meet its affordable housing requirements pursuant to this part. Under no circumstances shall this section be interpreted or applied in a manner that has the effect of reducing the tax increment payable or received by affected taxing entities pursuant to Section 33492.15.

(b)  Notwithstanding Section 33328, the report required by that section need only be as complete as the information then available permits.
