A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD
APPROVING AND CERTIFYING THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
REPORT FOR THE REDEVELOPMENT PLAN IN ADOPTION OF THE
ROSEMEAD REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREA NO. 2
WHEREAS, the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Rosemead, (the "Agency")
has initiated a Redevelopment Plan for Rosemead Redevelopment Project Area No. 2 (the
"Redevelopment Plan"); and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Rosemead has approved and
forwarded to the Agency its report that the proposed Redevelopment Plan are in conformity
with the General Plan of the City of Rosemead and has recommended approval of said
Redevelopment Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Draft Environmental Impact Report prepared on the Redevelopment
Plan was sent to the Planning Commission and the Commission held a public hearing to
receive public input on the adequacy of the Draft Environmental Impact Report; and
WHEREAS, all actions required to be taken by applicable law related to the
preparation, circulation, and review of the Draft Environmental Impact Report have been
taken; and
WHEREAS, the Final Environmental Impact Report identified significant direct
project impacts to the traffic levels of service at the intersection of Rosemead Boulevard
and Valley Boulevard and potentially significant impacts to air quality from construction
phase activity which cannot be mitigated to an insignificant level by conditions imposed on
the project; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to public notice duly given, the City Council of the City of
Rosemead (the "City Council") and the Agency held a full and fair public hearing on the
proposed Plan and Final Environmental Impact Report on June 13, 2000; and
WHEREAS, all legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD
HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The Final Environmental Impact Report is an adequate and complete
document in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) of 1970, as
amended, and the Guidelines promulgated thereunder, that the Agency has reviewed and
considered the information contained in said Environmental Impact Report reflects the
independent judgment of the Rosemead City Council.
0 0
SECTION 2. The mitigation monitoring program has been prepared in accordance
with the State government requirements contained in Section 21081.6 of the Public
Resources Code.
SECTION 3. The Final Environmental Impact Report determined that there would
be no impacts or impacts would be less than significant without mitigation for land use,
population/housing/employment, noise, geology, public health/safety/risk, police protection,
and solid waste.
SECTION 4. The Final Environmental Impact Report identified impacts related to
the project that would be less than significant when project activities are in compliance with
reasonable policies, rules and regulations related to applicable laws, but for which would be
further reduced by additional recommended measures that would further benefit the air
quality for non-construction activities, the community for fire protection, libraries,
recreation/parks, and public utilities and infrastructure (including water, sewer, storm water,
electricity and natural gas). Impacts and mitigation measures are identified in Sections 3D
Air Quality, 3H-1 Fire Protection, 3H-3 Libraries, 31 Recreation, Parks and Open Space, 3J-
1 Water, 3J-2 Sewer, 3J-3 Storm Water, 3J-5 Electricity, and 3J-6 Natural Gas of the
Environmental Impact Report.
SECTIONS. The Final Environmental Impact Report identified significant impacts
related to the project which are potentially significantly adverse, but which will be mitigated
to an insignificant level by conditions imposed upon the project in the area of public services
(other government services). The public services impact and mitigation measure is
identified in Section 3H-4, Government Services of the Environmental Impact Report.
SECTION 6. The proposed project will have a significant adverse effect on traffic
levels of service at the intersection of Rosemead Boulevard and Valley Boulevard and
potentially significant impacts to air quality from construction phase activity which cannot be
mitigated to an insignificant level by conditions imposed on the project.
(a) Adverse traffic impacts are incremental and cumulative which result from
traffic generation sources that are not totally within the jurisdictional control of the City of
Rosemead. To fully mitigate adverse service level impacts at the intersection of Rosemead
Boulevard and Valley Boulevard would necessitate physical improvements which exceed
planned configurations and could require displacement of adjacent land uses. The cost and
degree of adverse impacts that could result from complete mitigation is not reasonable or
feasible; however, traffic-related impacts have been incorporated to the extent reasonable
to lessen the impacts.
(b) Adverse air quality impacts during construction will be temporary and short-
term. Complete mitigation of construction emissions would require the imposition of
schedule requirements that would essentially render construction activities infeasible,
especially given their temporary nature. Adherence with South Coast Air Quality
Management District Rule 1113 will substantially reduce adverse construction emissions to
the extent which is reasonably feasible.
0 0
SECTION 7. All feasible mitigation measures, which are within the jurisdiction of the
City of Rosemead, as identified in the Final Environmental Impact Report have been
incorporated into the project and represent the fullest extent to which the project-related
impacts can be reasonably avoided and/or substantially lessened.
SECTION 8. Unavoidable adverse impacts are outweighed by the project benefits
related to economic, social, employment and other considerations which include fulfilling
goals, objectives and policies as defined in the City of Rosemead General Plan; providing
infrastructure and improvements that will benefit the community; providing incentives that
will encourage the elimination of the rehabilitation and revitalization of the project area and
eliminate blight; expanding the commercial/industrial sector with establishments that
improve the City's sales tax revenues and provide job opportunities; and, improving
vehicular and pedestrian circulation, access and parking conditions in the project area.
SECTION 9. The Final Environmental Impact Report did not identify project
alternatives which would reduce environmental impacts while still substantially achieving the
project objectives, and the proposed project was determined to be the environmentally
superior alternative.
SECTION 10. The City Council shall make available the Environmental Impact
Report and other related materials which constitute the record of the proceedings upon
which its decision is based at the Rosemead City Hall, 8838 E. Valley Boulevard,
Rosemead, California.
SECTION 11. When considering the whole record, there is no evidence that the
project will have the potential for adverse effects on historic resources, wildlife resources or
the habitat on which wildlife depends.
SECTION 12. Ten days after the approval of this resolution, the City of Rosemead
shall submit a fee of $25.00, required by the County of Los Angeles, for the filing of a
Certificate of Fee Exemption and de minimis findings pursuant to AB 3158 and the
California Code of Regulations.

. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD
DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The purposes and intent of the City Council with respect to the
Project Area are to accomplish the following:
a) The elimination and prevention of the spread of blight and deterioration and
the conservation, rehabilitation and redevelopment of the Project Area in accord with the
General Plan, the Redevelopment Plan and local codes and ordinances.
b) The promotion of new and continuing private sector investment within the
Project Area to prevent the loss of, and to facilitate, commercial sales activity.
c) The achievement of an environment reflecting a high level of concern for
architectural, landscape and urban design and land use principles appropriate for
attainment of the objectives of this Redevelopment Plan.
d) The retention and expansion of as many existing businesses as possible by
means of redevelopment and rehabilitation activities and by encouraging and assisting the
-2-
cooperation and participation of owners, businesses, and public agencies in the
revitalization of the Project Area.
e) The provision for increased sales, business license, and other fees, taxes and
revenues to the City of Rosemead.
0 The creation and development of local job opportunities and the preservation
of the area's existing employment base.
e) The replanning, redesign and development of areas which are stagnant or
improperly utilized.
0 The extension of the community's supply of housing (inside or outside the
Project Area), including opportunities for very low-, low- and moderate-income households.
Section 2. The City Council hereby finds and determines, based on
. substantial evidence in the record, including, but not limited to, the Agency's Report to the
City Council on the proposed Redevelopment Plan for the Rosemead Redevelopment Project
Area No. 2, and all documents referenced therein, and evidence and testimony received at
the joint public hearing on adoption of the Redevelopment Plan held on June 13, 2000, that:
a) The Project Area is a blighted area, the redevelopment of which is necessary
to effectuate the public purposes declared in the California Community Redevelopment Law
(Health and Safety Code Section 33000 et seq.). This finding is based on the following
conditions which predominate in the Project Area:
(1) The existence of buildings and structures used or intended to be used
for commercial, industrial or other purposes which have the following factors that
substantially hinder the economically viable use or capacity of buildings and lots, namely
age and obsolescence, physical deterioration, substandard design, lack of parking, and
inadequate size given present market conditions; and
• (2) The existence of subdivided lots of irregular form and shape and
inadequate in size for proper usefulness and development that are in multiple ownership.
(3) A prevalence of depreciated or stagnant property values and impaired
investments, including but not limited to declines in assessed values, and vacancy in
portions of the Project Area; and
(4) The existence of adjacent or nearby uses that are incompatible with
each other and which prevent economic development of those parcels or other portions of
the Project Area, including but not limited to the presence of residential uses next to
commercial parcels which prevent expansion of commercial uses to meet current economic
requirements of the private market; and
(5) The existence of properties which suffer from deterioration and disuse
because of inadequate public improvements, facilities and utilities, which cannot be
remedied by private or governmental action without redevelopment.
-3-
Such conditions are causing and will increasingly cause a reduction and lack of
proper utilization of the area to such an extent that it constitutes a serious physical, social
and economic burden on the City which cannot reasonably be expected to be reversed or
alleviated by private enterprise acting alone, requiring redevelopment in the interest of the
health, safety and general welfare of the people of the City and the State. This finding is
based on the fact that governmental action available to the City without redevelopment
would be insufficient to cause any significant correction of the blighting conditions, and that
the nature and costs of the public improvements and facilities and other actions required to
correct the blighting conditions are beyond the capacity of the City and cannot be
undertaken or borne by private enterprise acting alone or in concert with available
governmental action.
b) The Project Area is an urbanized area. This finding is based upon the fact
that not less than eighty percent (80%) of the privately owned property in the Project Area
has been or is developed for urban uses, as demonstrated by the Agency's report to City
Council. In addition, as demonstrated by the Agency's report to City Council, the Project
Area is part of an area developed for urban uses.
c) The Redevelopment Plan will redevelop the Project Area in conformity with
the Community Redevelopment Law and in the interests of the public peace, health, safety
and welfare. This finding is based upon the fact that the purposes of the Community
Redevelopment Law would be attained by the project; by the elimination of areas suffering
from economic dislocation or disuse; by the replanning, redesign and/or redevelopment of
areas which are stagnant or improperly utilized, and which could not be accomplished by
private enterprise acting alone without public participation and assistance; by protecting
and promoting sound development and redevelopment of blighted areas and the general
welfare of the citizens of the City by remedying such injurious conditions through
appropriate means; and through the installation of new, or replacement of existing public
improvements, facilities and utilities in areas which are currently inadequately served with
regard to such improvements, facilities and utilities.
d) The adoption and carrying out of the . Redevelopment Plan is economically
sound and feasible. This finding is based on the fact that under the Redevelopment Plan
the Agency will be authorized to seek and utilize a variety of potential financing resources,
including tax increments; that the nature and timing of public redevelopment assistance
will depend on the amount and availability of such financing resources, including tax
increments, generated by new investment in the Project Area, that under the
Redevelopment Plan no public redevelopment activity can be undertaken unless the Agency
can demonstrate that it has adequate revenue to finance the activity; and that the
financing plan included within the Agency's Report to the City Council demonstrates that
sufficient financial resources will be available to carry out the Project.
e) The Redevelopment Plan conforms to the General Plan of the City of
Rosemead, including but not limited to the City's Housing Element, which substantially
complies with the requirements of Article 10.6 (commencing with Section 65590) of Chapter
3 of Division 1 of Title 7 of the Government Code. This finding is based on the finding of
the Planning Commission that the Redevelopment Plan conforms to the General Plan for
the City of Rosemead.
-4-
f) The carrying out of the Redevelopment Plan will promote the public peace,
health, safety and welfare of the-City of Rosemead and will effectuate the purposes and
policies of the Community Redevelopment Law. This finding is based on the fact that
redevelopment will benefit the Project Area by correcting conditions of blight and by
coordinating public and private actions to stimulate development and improve the economic
and physical conditions of the Project Area, and by increasing employment opportunities
within the City.
g) The condemnation of real property, as provided for in the Redevelopment
Plan, is necessary to the execution of the Redevelopment Plan, and adequate provisions
have been made for the payment for property to be acquired as provided by law. This
finding is based upon the need to ensure that the provisions of the-Redevelopment Plan will
be carried out and to prevent the recurrence of blight, and the fact that no property will be
acquired until adequate funds are available to pay full compensation therefor.
• h) Although the Project Area contains few dwelling units, the Agency has a
feasible method and plan for the relocation of families and persons who might be displaced,
temporarily or permanently from housing facilities in the Project Area. This finding is
based upon the fact that the Agency has adopted a plan for the relocation of families,
persons and businesses who might be displaced, temporarily or permanently, from housing
facilities if any are within the Project Area, by Agency projects. The Redevelopment Plan
provides for relocation assistance according to law and the fact that such assistance,
including relocation payments, constitutes a feasible method for relocation.
i) There shall be provided, within the Project Area or within other areas not
generally less desirable with regard to public utilities and public and commercial facilities
and at rents or prices within the financial means of the families and persons who might be
displaced from the Project Area, decent, safe and sanitary dwellings equal in number to the
number of and available to such displaced families and persons and reasonably accessible to
their places of employment. This finding is based upon the fact that no person or family
. will be required to move from any dwelling unit until suitable replacement housing is
available for occupancy, that such housing must meet the standards established in State
law and regulations, in the Agency's Relocation Assistance Guidelines, the City's Housing
Element, and the fact that there are no identified dwelling units in the Project Area.
j) Inclusion of any lands, buildings, or improvements which are not detrimental
to the public health, safety or welfare is necessary for the effective redevelopment of the
entire area of which they are a part, and any such area is not included solely for the
purpose of obtaining the allocation of tax increment revenues from such area pursuant to
Section 33676 of the Community Redevelopment Law without other substantial
justification for its inclusion. In addition, all properties within Project Area boundaries
were included because they were under utilized, because of blighting influences, or were
affected by the existence of blighting influences, or were necessary either to accomplish the
objectives and benefits of the Redevelopment plan or because of the need to impose uniform
requirements on the Project Area as whole. Such properties will share in the benefits of the
Project.
1) The elimination of blight and the redevelopment of the Project Area
could not reasonably be expected to be accomplished by private enterprise acting alone
-5-
without the aid and assistance of the Agency. This finding is based upon the existence of
blighting influences, including, without limitation, the demonstrated lack of private sector
interest in redeveloping the Project Area properties, structural deficiencies and other
indications of blight more fully enumerated in the Agency's Report to City council, and the
lack of feasibility due to cost of requiring individuals (by means of assessments or
otherwise) to eradicate or significantly alleviate existing deficiencies in the Project Area
properties and facilities, and the inability and inadequacy of other governmental programs
and financing mechanisms to eliminate the blighting conditions.
1) The time limitation in the Redevelopment Plan is reasonably related to the
proposed projects to be implemented in the Project Area and to the ability of the Agency to
eliminate blight within the Project Area
Section 3. The City Council is satisfied that permanent housing facilities will
be available within three years from the time residential occupants of the Project Area are
displaced, and that pending the development of such facilities, there will be available to any
. such displaced residential occupants temporary housing facilities -at rents comparable to
those in the City of Rosemead at the time of their displacement. No persons or families of
low and moderate income shall be displaced from residencies unless and until there is a
suitable housing unit available and ready for occupancy by such displaced persons or
families at rents comparable to those at the time of their displacement. This finding is
based upon the Relocation Assistance Guidelines and the Housing Element, and the
Agency's familiarity with the local housing market.
Section 4. Families and persons shall not be displaced prior to the adoption of
a relocation plan pursuant to Section 33411 and 33411.1. Dwelling units having persons
and families of low or moderate income shall not be removed or destroyed prior to the
adoption of a replacement housing plan.
Section 5. Written objections to the Redevelopment Plan filed with the City
Clerk before the hour set for hearing and all written and oral objections presented to the
• City Council at the hearing having been considered and, in the case of written objections
received from Project Area property owners, residents, businesses and affected taxing
agencies, having been responded to in writing, and all written responses have been
considered by the City Council.
Section 6. That certain document entitled "Environmental Impact Report for
Project Area 2, a copy of which is on file in the office of the Agency, and in the office of the
City Clerk, having been duly reviewed and considered, is hereby incorporated into this
Ordinance by reference and made a part hereof. All activities undertaken by the Agency
and/or the City of Rosemead pursuant to or in implementation of the Redevelopment Plan
shall be undertaken in accordance with the mitigation measures set forth in said
Environmental Impact Report, and the Agency shall undertake such additional
environmental reviews as necessary at the time of implementation of such activities.
Section 7. That certain document entitled "Redevelopment Plan for the
Rosemead Redevelopment Project Area No. 2", the map contained therein, and such other
reports as are incorporated therein by reference, a copy of which is on file in the office of the
Agency, and the office of the City Clerk, having been duly reviewed and considered, is

in helping to carry out the Redevelopment Plan, (b) requests the various officials,

accordance with the Redevelopment Plan for Project Area No. I which provides, in Part
6, that the Commission may acquire, but is not required to acquire, any real property

extend the twelve year time limitation for exercising eminent domain powers to acquire
real property in Project Area No. 1.
B. The Commission's authority to use the power of eminent domain to
acquire real property with respect to Redevelopment Project Area No. 2 shall be in
accordance with the Redevelopment Plan for Project Area No. 2 which provides, Section
III.C.1, that the Commission may acquire, but is not required to acquire, any real property

i.e., by June 27, 2012. Once the foregoing described twelve (12) year period has expired
the Commission may not use eminent domain to acquire real property unless that time
limitation has been extended by amendment of Redevelopment Plan No. 2 except as may
otherwise be provided by the CRL or other applicable law.
C. The Commission shall use the power of eminent domain to acquire real
property only if negotiations for the voluntary purchase and sale of real property do not
result in the acquisition by the Commission of real property that the Commission has the
power to acquire pursuant to the Redevelopment Plan No. 2 and the CRL.
D. When exercising the power of eminent domain to acquire real property
pursuant to, and as limited by, the Redevelopment Plan No. 2, the Commission shall

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD DOES
HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The above facts are true and correct and a substantive part of this
Ordinance.
Section 2. The document entitled, "Amendment to Merge Rosemead
Redevelopment Project Area No. ? and Project Area No. 2" (referred to herein as the "Merger
Amendment"), on file in the office of the City Clerk and attached hereto as Exhibit A, is
hereby incorporated by this reference.
Section 3. The purposes and intent of the City Council are to eliminate conditions of
blight in the Merged Project Area and to help prevent their reoccurrence by undertaking all
appropriate redevelopment projects in accordance with the CCRL to contribute to the
revitalization of blighted areas through increased economic vitality of those areas and
through increased and improved housing opportunities in or near such areas.
Section 4. Based upon the evidence in the record, including but not limited to the
Commission's Report to the City Council for the Merger Amendment in accordance with
CCRL Sections 33352 and 33457. 1, and all documents referenced therein, and evidence and
testimony received at the City Council public hearing, the City Council hereby makes the
following findings and determinations as warranted by the Merger Amendment:
A. Amending the Original Plans by adopting the Merger Amendment is necessary
and desirable to complete redevelopment of the Merged Project Area and to increase the
probability of achieving the goals and objectives of the Original Plans in the Merged Project
Area.
B. Significant conditions of blight remain within portions of the Merged Project
Area which might not be alleviated without adoption of the Merger Amendment. Such
conditions documented during the adoption process of the Merger Amendment within the
Merged Project Area include, but are not limited to: the existence of buildings in which it is
unsafe and unhealthy for persons to live or work, including buildings which exhibit
dilapidation and deterioration, the existence of factors that prevent or substantially hinder the
economically viable uses or capacity of buildings or lots, the existence of subdivided lots of
irregular from and shape and of inadequate size for proper usefulness and development that
are in multiple ownership, depreciated or stagnant values or impaired investments,
inadequate public improvements, inadequate parking facilities, defective design/physical
construction, deterioration, obsolescence, and public service issues. This finding is based,
in part, on the information contained in Section 4.0 of the Report to Council, describing the
remaining physical and economic conditions of blight and providing compelling evidence that
such conditions are still significant in the Merged Project Area, and on that fact that
governmental action available to the City, without merging the Original Project Areas, would
4
Original Project Areas, would be insufficient to cause significant correction of the remaining
blighted conditions in the Merged Project Area.
This finding is based on the Commission's Report to Council for the Merger
Amendment, which describes the blight remaining in the Merged Project Area, evaluated by
recent analyses undertaken by the Commission as a part of the Merger Amendment process,
wherein the foregoing combination of blighting conditions causes a reduction of, or lack of,
proper utilization of the Merged Project Area that cannot reasonably be expected to be
reversed or alleviated by private enterprise or governmental action, or both, without merging
the Original Project Areas. The Merger Amendment will help the Agency to more effectively
implement the Original Plans, including their goals and objectives, within or of benefit to the
Merged Project Area, by providing important fiscal flexibility in administering projects
throughout the Merged Project Area help accomplish the construction of public
improvements, and to facilitate implementation of Commission economic development and
affordable housing programs, that are necessary to lessen the remaining blighting conditions
found in the Merged Project Area.
This finding is further based on the City Council's earlier findings contained in
the Original Ordinances for the Original Plans, which found each of the Original Project
Areas to be predominantly urbanized as described above. The decisions by the City Council
in connection with the adoption of the Original Ordinances are final and conclusive and after
those adoption dates, it has been, is and shall be presumed that the territory included in
Original Project Areas, and therefore in the Merged Project Area, is urbanized.
C. Amending the Original Plans by adoption of the Merger Amendment provides
the Agency a fortified redevelopment tool, helping it redevelop the Merged Project Area in
conformance with the provisions and intent of the CCRL, and in the interests of the public
peace, health, safety and welfare. Implementation of the Original Plans as amended by the
Merger Amendment will assist in fulfilling the objectives of the CCRL by helping to eliminate
conditions of blight within the Merged Project Area. The Original Plans provide for, among
other things the following redevelopment actions:
1. Acquisition, installation, development, construction, reconstruction, redesign,
replanning, or reuse of streets, utilities, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, street
lighting, landscaping, and other public improvements, facilities, utilities or other
structures.
2. Acquisition and disposition of property acquired for uses in accordance with
the Original Plans.
3. Redevelopment of land by private enterprise or public agencies for uses in
accordance with the Original Plans.
4. Construction and improvement of recreational facilities, community facilities,
parking facilities and other public uses.
5
5. Acquisition, preservation, construction, or rehabilitation or other provision of
housing for low and moderate-income families, seniors and handicapped
individuals.
6. Financing of the construction of residential, commercial and industrial buildings
and the mortgage financing of residential, commercial and industrial buildings,
as permitted by applicable State and local laws, to increase the residential,
commercial and industrial base of the City and the number of temporary and
permanent jobs within the City.
7. In appropriate cases, rehabilitation of structures and improvements or
development of vacant land by present owners, their successors and the
Agency for uses in accordance with the Original .Plans.
S Demolition or removal of buildings and improvements; site preparation.
9. Management of any property acquired under the ownership and control of the
Agency.
10 Such other actions as may be permitted by law.
The Merger Amendment provides that Original Project Areas are merged.
Such merger will result in substantial benefit to the public and will contribute to the
revitalization of blighted areas through the increased economic vitality of such areas and
through increased and improved housing opportunities in or near such areas. For financing
purposes and for any other purposes permitted or required by law, the Original Project Areas
are merged and together shall be called the "Rosemead Merged Project Area"
D. The adoption and carrying out of the Original Plans, as amended by the
Amendment is economically sound and feasible. This finding is based on the fact that the
purpose of the Merger Amendment is to merge the Original Projects which will enable the
Commission to more effectively administer and implement redevelopment projects and
programs in the entire Merged Project Area because it will allow the Commission to, i) move
tax increment dollars within the Merged Project Area, and ii) have greater flexibility with
respect to long-term projects financing. The Merger Amendment will enable the Commission
to use tax increment and other revenues being generated within the Original Project Areas to
fund needed projects and programs to eliminate existing blighting conditions within the
Merged Project Area which are presently underfunded. Should the Commission find it
necessary and appropriate, revenues being generated from within the Merged Project Area
could be combined to pay future debt service on one or more larger bond issues. The City
Council finds the Merged Project Area will benefit from the implementation of the Merger
Amendment because a greater number of Commission projects and programs can be
successfully completed, thereby facilitating the achievement of Commission objectives
discussed within the Original Plans.
6
The finding that the Original Plans as amended by the Merger Amendment are
economically sound and feasible is further based, on information provided in Section 5.0 of
the Commissions Report to City Council and on the fact that under the Merger Amendment
the Commission will now be authorized to seek and use a variety of potential financing
resources, including the issuance of tax allocation notes and bonds secured by property tax
increment; that the nature and timing of public redevelopment assistance will depend on the
amount and availability of such financing resources, including tax increment, generated by
new investment in the Merged Project Area; that under the Original Plans, as amended by
the Merger Amendment, no public redevelopment activity in the Merged Project Area can be
undertaken unless the Commission can demonstrate that it has adequate revenue to finance
the activity, and that the financing plan included within the Commission's Report to the City
Council demonstrates that sufficient financial resources will be available to carry out the
Original Plans as amended by the Merger Amendment.
E. The Merger Amendment is consistent with the General Plan of the City,
including, but not limited to, the Housing Element of the General Plan, which substantially
complies with the requirements of Article 10.6 (commencing with Section 65580) of Chapter 3
of Division 1 "of Title 7 of the Government Code. This finding is based on the finding of the
Planning Commission that the Merger Amendment conforms to the General Plan for the City
as set forth in its Resolution No. 08-33 adopted December 15, 2008.
F. The carrying out of the Original Plans as amended by the Merger Amendment
would continue to promote the public peace, health, safety and welfare of the City and would
effectuate the purposes and policies of the CCRL.
This finding is based on the fact that redevelopment will benefit the Merged
Project Area by continuing to correct significant conditions of blight and by coordinating
public and private actions to stimulate development and improve the economic and physical
conditions of the Merged Project Area, and by increasing employment and housing
opportunities within the City.
G. The Commission proposes no displacement of families and persons; the
Original Plans, as proposed to be amended by the Merger Amendment, do not provide the
Commission with the authority to acquire property in the Merged Project Area. In the event of
any displacement in the future, the Commission has a feasible method and plan for the
relocation of families and persons displaced, temporarily or permanently, from housing
facilities in the Merged Project Area. The Commission also has a feasible method and plan
for relocation of businesses.
This finding is based upon the fact that in conjunction with the adoption of each
of the Original Plans, the Commission adopted individual plans for relocation of families,
persons and businesses who may be displaced by Commission projects. The relocation
plans adopted for the Original Plans provide for relocation assistance within the Merged
Project Area according to law, and such assistance, including relocation payments,
constitutes a feasible method for relocation.
7
H.. The Commission proposes no displacement of families and persons; the
Original Plans, as proposed to be amended by the Merger Amendment, do not provide the
Commission with the authority to acquire property in the Merged Project Area. In the event of
any displacement in the future, there are, or shall be provided, within the Merged Project
Area or within other areas not generally. less desirable with regard to public utilities and
public and commercial facilities and at rents or prices within the financial means of the
families and persons who might be displaced from the Merged Project Area, decent, safe and
sanitary dwellings equal in number to the number of and available to such displaced families
and persons and reasonably accessible to their places of employment.
I. The finding and determination required by CCRL Section 33367(d)(9) is not
warranted by the Merger Amendment because the Merger Amendment does not alter the
boundaries of the Original Project Areas. The City Council previously found and determined
for the Original Project Areas that all noncontiguous areas are either blighted or necessary
for effective redevelopment and are not included for the purpose of obtaining the allocation of
taxes from the area pursuant to CCRL Section 33670 without other substantial justification for
their inclusion.
J. The finding and determination required by CCRL Section 33367(d)(10) is not
warranted by the Merger Amendment because the Merger Amendment does not affect the
boundaries of the Original Project Areas. The City Council previously found and determined
in the Original Ordinances that inclusion of any lands, buildings, or improvements which are
not detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare is necessary for the effective
redevelopment of the entire area of which they are a part, and any such area is not included
solely for the purpose of obtaining the allocation of tax increment revenues from such area
pursuant to CCRL Section 33670 without other substantial justification for such inclusion.
K. The elimination of blight and the redevelopment of the Merged Project Area
could not reasonably be expected to be accomplished by private enterprise acting alone, or
by governmental action, or both, without the aid and assistance of the Commission. This
finding is based upon the existence of blighting influences, as described in the Reports to the
City Council prepared for the Original Projects and the Original Ordinances and on the
continued existence of significant blight as described in the Report to Council for the Merger
Amendment, which Reports include a lack of adequate public improvements and facilities,
and the inability of individual owners and developers to economically remove these blighting
influences without substantial public assistance available pursuant to the CCRL.
L. The finding and determination required by CCRL Section 33367(d)(12) is not
warranted by the Merger Amendment because the Merger Amendment does not affect the
boundaries of the-Original Project Areas. The Commission previously documented that the
Original Project Areas are predominantly urbanized areas as defined in CCRL Section
33320.1(b) in the Commission's Preliminary Reports prepared for the Original Plans in
accordance with CCRL Section 33344.4, which demonstrated that not less than eighty
percent (80%) of the land in each of the Original Projects has been or was developed for
8
urban uses, was an integral part of one or more areas developed for urban uses which were
surrounded or substantially surrounded by parcels which had been or were developed for
urban uses, or contained parcels that had been subdivided into an irregular form or shape,
and were of inadequate size for.proper usefulness and development, and were in multiple
ownership
M. The finding and determination required by CCRL Section 33367(d)(13) is not
warranted by the Merger Amendment because the Merger Amendment does not alter any
time limitations in the Original Plans. The City Council previously found and determined in
the 'Original Ordinances that the time limitations contained in the Original Plans are
reasonably related to the proposed projects to be implemented in the Original Project Areas
and to the Commission's ability to eliminate blight within the Original Project Areas.
N. The implementation of the Original Plans, as amended by the Merger
Amendment, will continue to improve or alleviate the physical and economic conditions of
blight remaining in the Merged Project Area, as described in the Report prepared pursuant to
CCRL Section 33352.
This finding is based, in part, on information contained in Section 4 of the
Report to Council which describes the physical and economic conditions of blight in the
Original Project Areas and in Sections 1 and 5 which describe how implementation of the
Plan will improve or alleviate these conditions. This finding is based upon the fact that in
conjunction with the adoption of each of the Original Plans, the Commission determined in its
Reports to Council for the Original Plans, also prepared pursuant to CCRL Section 33352,
that implementation of the Original Plans would improve or alleviate the physical and
economic conditions of blight in the Original Project Areas.
Section 5. The City Council is satisfied that permanent housing facilities will be
available within three years from the time occupants of the Merged Project Area, if any, are
displaced, and that, pending the development of such facilities, there will be available to any
such displaced occupants adequate temporary housing facilities at rents comparable to those
in the City at the time of their displacement. T
Section 6. Written objections to the Merger Amendment filed with the Commission or
the City Council before or at the Commission public hearing or the City Council public
hearing on the Merger Amendment, as such meetings may be continued from time to time,
and oral objections (if any) presented to the Commission or City Council at their respective
public hearings having been considered and, in the case of written objections received from
Merged Project Area property owners and affected taxing agencies, having been responded
to in writing, all such objections are hereby overruled.
Section 7. By its Resolution No. 2009-03, dated February 10, 2009, the City Council
has adopted the Negative Declaration for the MergerAmendment, a copy of which is on file
in the office of the Commission and in the office of the City Clerk, finding that no mitigation
measures or mitigation monitoring program is required as a condition of Merger Amendment
adoption.
9
Section 8. Ordinance No. 340, adopted June 22, 1972, and subsequently amended
by Ordinance No. 592, December 201994, by Ordinance No. 752 and January 22, 2002, by
Ordinance No. 822, is hereby amended to revise the Redevelopment Plan for Project Area
No. 1 in accordance with the Merger Amendment. Ordinance No. 809, adopted June 27,
2000, is hereby amended to revise the Redevelopment Plan for Project Area No. 2 in

a copy of which is on file in the office of the Commission and the office of the City Clerk,
having been duly reviewed and considered, is hereby incorporated into this Ordinance by
reference and made a part hereof, and as so incorporated is hereby designated, approved,
and adopted as the official Merger Amendment to the Original Plans, redevelopment plans
adopted in accordance with the CCRL, for the Merged Project Area.
Section 9. In order to implement and facilitate the effectuation of the Merger
Amendment hereby approved, this City Council hereby: (a) pledges its cooperation in
helping to carry out the Merger Amendment, (b) authorizes and directs the various officials,
departments, boards, and agencies of the City having administrative responsibilities in the
Merged Project Area likewise to cooperate to such end and to exercise their respective
functions and powers in a manner consistent with redevelopment of the Merged Project, (c)
stands ready to consider and take appropriate action upon proposals and measures
designed to effectuate the Merger Amendment, and (d) declares its intention to undertake
and complete any proceeding, including the expenditure of moneys, necessary to be carried
out by the City under the provisions of the Merger Amendment.
Section 10. The City Clerk is hereby directed to send a certified copy of this
Ordinance to the Commission, whereupon the Commission is vested with the responsibility
for carrying out the Merger Amendment.
Section 11. The City Clerk is hereby directed to record with the County Recorder of
the County of Los Angeles a description(s) of the land within the Merged Project Area and a
statement that the Original Projects have been merged under the CCRL.

and statement recorded by the City Clerk pursuant to Section 9. of this Ordinance, a copy of
this Ordinance, and a map(s) or plat(s) indicating the boundaries of the Merged Project Area,

of each of the taxing agencies which receives taxes from property in the Merged Project
Area, and to the State Board of Equalization, within thirty (30) days following the adoption of
the Merger Amendment.
- Section 11. The City Clerk is hereby authorized and directed to certify to the passage
of this Ordinance and to cause the same, or a summary thereof, to be published in a
newspaper of general circulation which is published and circulated in the City.
10
Section 12. If any part of this Ordinance, or the Merger Amendment which it
approves, is held to be invalid for any reason, such decision shall not affect the validity of the
remaining portion of this Ordinance or of the remaining portion of the Merger Amendment,
and this City Council hereby declares that it would have passed the remainder of the
Ordinance, or approved the remainder of the Merger Amendment, if such invalid portion
thereof had been deleted.
Section 13. This Ordinance shall be in full force and effect thirty (30) days after
adoption.
