The redevelopment agency shall conduct a public hearing within 45 days after receiving the findings to receive public testimony identifying the effects of the redevelopment plan on the fire protection district and suggesting revisions to the redevelopment plan as adopted or amended by the legislative body that would alleviate or eliminate the financial burden or detriment in the area or areas caused by the implementation of the redevelopment plan. The redevelopment agency shall send written notice of the public hearing to, and at the hearing receive public testimony from, any affected taxing entity. After receiving that testimony at the hearing, the agency shall consider amendments of the plan necessary to alleviate or eliminate the financial burden or detriment in the area or areas caused by the implementation of the redevelopment plan. The agency may recommend those amendments for adoption by the legislative body.

(c)  Any funds received by a fire protection district from a redevelopment agency to alleviate or eliminate the financial burden or detriment caused by implementation of a redevelopment plan as a result of a public hearing conducted pursuant to subdivision (a) may be used for any lawful purpose of the district.

The notice may be addresses to “occupant.” If the agency acted in good faith to comply with the notice requirements of this subdivision, the failure of the agency to provide the required notice to residents or businesses unknown to the agency or whose addresses cannot be obtained at a reasonable cost, shall not, in and of itself, invalidate an amendment to a redevelopment plan.
(d)  Copies of the notices published pursuant to this section shall also be mailed to the governing body of each of the taxing agencies that levies taxes upon any property in the project area designated in the redevelopment plan as proposed to be amended. Notices sent pursuant to this subdivision shall be mailed by certified mail with return receipt requested.

33476. Notwithstanding any other provision of this article, except Section 33471.5, for the purpose of allocating taxes pursuant to Section 33670 that are subject to this article, redevelopment project areas under the jurisdiction of the redevelopment agency of the City of San Bernardino designated Meadowbrook/Central City, Central City East, and Central City South, are hereby merged into one contiguous project areas designated Central City. Each constituent project area so merged shall continue under its own redevelopment plan for the longest term of the three plans, but, except as otherwise provided in this article, taxes attributable to each project area merged pursuant to this section that are allocated to the redevelopment agency pursuant to Section 33670 shall be allocated, as provided in subdivision (b) of that section, to the entire merged project area for the purpose of paying the principal of and interest on loans, moneys advanced to, or indebtedness, whether funded, refunded, assumed, or otherwise, incurred by the redevelopment agency to finance or refinance, in whole or in part, the merged redevelopment project.

33476.3. If the redevelopment agency has, prior to merger of redevelopment project areas pursuant to Section 33476, incurred any indebtedness on account of a constituent project area so merged, taxes attributable to such area which are allocated to the agency pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 33670 shall be first used to comply with the terms of any bond resolution or other agreement pledging such taxes from such constituent project area until a refunding has occurred which satisfies the terms of such resolution or agreement.

33476.5. The Legislature finds and declares that the merger of the project areas specified in Section 33476 in the City of San Bernardino is necessary to prevent a default on the outstanding bonds of the Meadowbrook/Central City Project due to the drastic reduction in property taxes caused by the adoption of Article XIII  A to the Constitution. This project area is already substantially redeveloped, making it unlikely that further redevelopment can be used to increase the tax base. The Redevelopment Agency of the City of San Bernardino has already had to call on the state for support of its bonded debt. This is an undesirable burden on the state which can be avoided by merging the two contiguous project areas into the combined Central City Project so that the tax increment from the buildout in Central City East and Central City South Project areas, when added to the tax increment of the Meadowbrook/Central City Project Area, resulting from combining the project areas, can serve the debt of all three projects, or the debt as refunded, thus preventing an undesirable default, or, in lieu thereof, further draws on the funds of the state.

33478. (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 the redevelopment agency of the City of Richmond or the City of Pittsburg for which redevelopment plans have been adopted pursuant to Article 5 (commencing with Section 33360), may be merged, without regard to contiguity of such areas, by the amendment of each affected redevelopment plan as provided in Article 12 (commencing with Section 33450). Except as provided in subdivision (b), taxes attributable to each project area merged pursuant to this section which are allocated to the redevelopment agency pursuant to Section 33670 may be allocated, as provided in subdivision (b), 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, such merged redevelopment project.
(b)  If the redevelopment agency has, prior to merger of redevelopment project areas pursuant to subdivision (a), incurred any indebtedness on account of a constituent project area so merged, taxes attributable to that area which 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 such taxes from the constituent project area.
(c)  In connection with any amendment which proposes merger of redevelopment project areas pursuant to subdivision (a), the county or any affected taxing entity may call for the creation of a fiscal review committee as provided for in Article 4 (commencing with Section 33330).
(d)  After 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 which levies taxes upon any property in the project.

33478.1. (a)  Subject to the provisions of subdivisions (a) and (b) of Section 33478, not less than 20 percent of all taxes which are allocated to the redevelopment agency pursuant to Section 33670 for redevelopment projects merged pursuant to this article, irrespective of the date of adoption of the final redevelopment plans shall be deposited by the agency in the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund established pursuant to Section 33334.3, or which shall be established for purposes of this section, except if the agency finds that not less than 4 percent of the housing units within its jurisdiction receive subsidies to make such units affordable to low- or moderate-income households. The agency shall use the moneys in such fund to assist in the construction or rehabilitation of housing units which will be available to, or occupied by, persons and families of low or moderate income, as defined in Section 50093, and very low income households, as defined in Section 50105, for a period of not less than 30 years. For the purposes of this subdivision, “construction and rehabilitation” shall include acquisition of land, improvements to land; the acquisition, rehabilitation, or construction of structures; or the provision of subsidies necessary to provide housing for persons and families of low or moderate income, as defined in Section 50093, and very low income households, as defined in Section 50105.
(b)  The agency may use the funds set aside by subdivision (a) inside or outside the project area. However, the agency may only use these funds outside the project area upon a resolution of the agency and the legislative body that such use will be of benefit to the project. Such determination by the agency and the legislative body shall be final and conclusive as to the issue of benefit to the project area. The Legislature finds and declares that the provision of replacement housing pursuant to Section 33413 is of benefit to a project.
The Legislature finds and declares that expenditures or obligations incurred by the agency pursuant to this section shall constitute an indebtedness of the project.
(c)  If moneys deposited in the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund pursuant to this section have not been committed for the purposes specified in subdivisions (a) and (b) for a period of six years following deposit in that fund, the agency shall offer such moneys to the housing authority which operates within the jurisdiction of the agency, if activated pursuant to Section 34240, for the purpose of constructing or rehabilitating housing as provided in subdivisions (a) and (b).
(d)  Notwithstanding subdivision (d) of Section 33413, any agency which merges its redevelopment project areas pursuant to this article shall be subject to the provisions of subdivisions (a) and (c) of Section 33413.
