Councilman Taylor stated that his comments from the Council meeting of January 8,
2002, remain the same. Mr. Taylor's comments are as follows:
"This law that they're referring to and the pre -1993 legislation that was enacted... one of
the things that we run into with the term limits, there were State Legislators, the Senate and
Assembly that were well aware of the problems that were created with the Redevelopment
Agencies and how the funding took place for a lot of the project areas. Almost all of those
Assemblymembers and Senate members have been replaced by people who have no knowledge of
that background that went into these laws or why they were put into place. The way it goes now
that... it's the best country in the world that we live in, but it's becoming such a bureaucratic
condition that those that were involved with the struggles that went on to get those laws, they're
no longer in the Legislature. I couldn't say if there is even one... with the six year terms that are
Put on for the Assembly, and the eight or so years for two terms for the Senate. Because of all
the abuses that went on prior to 1993, I can't vote for this one because it's taking away the
purpose of the law which was to make the cities and agencies say put your plan out for five years
and whatever it takes to get your loans, the debt, whatever it takes, but now by wiping out the
time limit, it's just wide open again. I have to vote no on this one. " ( 1/08/02)
Mr. Tripepi confirmed for the record that Mr. Taylor does not want Items B, C and D
read in their entirety, and that his no vote is against the adoption of those items.
