NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Rosemead resolves as follows: Section 1. The City Council of the City of Rosemead finds, determines, and declares: (a)The payment by the Rosemead Community Development Commission for costs associated with the installation of a traffic signal at Del Mar Avenue /Highcliff Street and installation of left -tum phasing at Del Mar Avenue /Graves Avenue, as depicted in Exhibit "A ", is of benefit to the Project Area. This finding is based on the fact that the improvements will serve to improve the infrastructure and eliminate blighting conditions by providing enhanced public safety and improved vehicular access along roadways within and adjacent to Project Area No. 1, thus enhancing the value of abutting properties. (b)That' there are no other reasonable means of financing such buildings, facilities, structures or other improvements available to the community. Although the City has a General Fund surplus, the uncertainty of continuing municipal revenue sources militates against the depletion of the existing reserves until such time as revenue sources and major required expenditures are stabilized. Section 2. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution. PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 11th day of October, 2005. MAYOR ATTEST: CITY CLERK OCT 112005 1 ITEM No. i 0 0
