The City Council and Commission Board hereby determine that: (i) The use of Commission funds is of benefit to the project areas. The Projects are of benefit to the Redevelopment Project Areas as they will improve community amenities for businesses and residences within the project areas. The ability to provide amenities to the community will help to improve property values and assist with the sale and resale of new and existing homes. Projects such as the development of the Aquatics Center or the expansion of the Rosemead Community Center will enhance the Project Area and will provide new resources. These projects will also assist in the growth of existing and new businesses by attracting additional patrons and residents to the project areas, thereby helping to reduce stagnant economic conditions. (ii) There is no other reasonable means of financing the improvements. At this time, no other reasonable means of financing the Projects are available from the City as the City is using its funds to undertake other projects, services and public improvements throughout the. City. The City's budget does not currently project any surplus which could be utilized for these improvements. Accordingly, bonding against current City revenues is also not an option. Further, given the current economic condition of California, the City believes that all fund reserves must be utilized for emergencies and further reductions in tax and other revenues to ensure that the City can continue to fund its basic ongoing services and maintain its existing facilities. Finally, given the current economic conditions in California, the City does not believe that any new taxes or assessments Would receive the appropriate voter approval levels to finance these improvements. The only available funding source for the improvements is bonding which does not require additional taxes be levied or additional assessments to be imposed. (iii) Funding the project will assist in the elimination of one or more blighting conditions inside the project areas. The payment of funds for the Projects will assist in the elimination of blighting conditions inside the Redevelopment Project Areas by improving the appearance of community amenities and facilities in the City of Rosemead and Redevelopment Project Area. It is anticipated that such improved appearance and enhanced facilities will attract additional new investment into the project areas in terms of new businesses and improvements to existing businesses in light of additional residential patronage and use of these nearby public facilities-or at least minimize the likelihood of any continued decline of the project areas as a result of decreased patronage resulting from deteriorating public facilities in the project areas. (iv) Consistency with 5-Year Plan The use of Commission funds for these Projects is consistent with the Commission's 5- year Implementation Plan (2009-2014). The Plan indicates the goal of eliminating blighting influences, including deteriorating buildings, incompatible land uses, obsolete structures, and other environmental, economic, and social deficiencies; improve the overall appearance of existing buildings, streets, parking areas and other facilities, public and private; and assure that all buildings, new and old, are safe for persons and business to occupy. Additional plan goals include providing new or improved public improvements and facilities, the absence or inadequacy of which constitute an economic liability of the City, are impediments to development, and which cannot be remedied by private or governmental action without redevelopment. The Implementation Plan also specifies capital improvement projects to improve the public infrastructure and facilities in the Project Areas. The plan specifically indentifies that the Commission may also assist in funding the construction of new and rehabilitated public facilities within or serving the Project Areas. Projects are intended to stimulate the growth of existing and new businesses and reduce stagnant economic conditions. (v) Redevelopment Purpose for funding Public Improvements As set forth herein, the redevelopment purpose for the funding of the public improvements described herein is the elimination of blight within the project areas. SECTION 4. Council Consent to use of Funds. The City Council hereby consents to the use of Rosemead Community Development Commission Funds to fund the improvements identified herein to the extent that the Commission Board approves the use of any of the Commission's funds for such purpose. The City Council and Commission Board understand that the actual costs of public improvements identified herein could vary from the cost estimates set forth herein. However, neither the City Council nor the Commission Board find that such a variance, even if material, would alter the findings set forth in this Resolution. SECTION 5. Effective Date: This Resolution shall take effect from and after its date of passage; approval and adoption. SECTION 6. Certification: The City Clerk and the Commission Secretary shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.
