MATTERS FROM STAFF OF THE ROSEMEAD SUCCESSOR AGENCY A. ROPS Submittal — June through December 2015 The Department of Finance (DOF) requires the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) for the January through December 2015 be submitted by March 3, 2015. The ROPS document includes a summary page, a cash balance page, a schedule for the current ROPS period, a reconciliation page of prior ROPS periods, and a notes page. As the Board may note in Column H of the "Report of Cash Balances" worksheet, the Successor Agency under spent its allocation in the 2014 -15B period by $46,556 due to a lower than anticipated transfer to the Housing Corporation, and a reduction in Administrative Cost Allowance expenditures. This represents the only adjustments for the ROPS. Recommendation: That the Oversight Board approve the Oversight Board Resolution 2015 -0001, entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE OVERSIGHT BOARD FOR THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE ROSEMEAD COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION APPROVING THE RECOGNIZED OBLIGATION PAYMENT SCHEDULES FOR THE PERIOD OF JULY 1, 2015 THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2015 Page 2 of 4 ROSEMEAD OVERSIGHT BOARD MEETING AGENDA February 9, 2015 B. Review of Expenditures — Rosemead Park Improvements Project As part of July 2010 tax increment bond issuance by the former Redevelopment Agency, the City included funding for a project to renovate and improve the facilities at Rosemead Park. The bond issuance included approximately $280,000 for miscellaneous park improvements and $750,000 for turf improvements, for a total of $1,030,000. Extensive improvements have been completed at the park at this time, including the replacement of the playground equipment on the north playground, construction of the new basketball courts, and miscellaneous work and improvements to the surrounding areas. As is common with construction projects, additional elements and expenses have been added to this project as it was in progress. Included in this report is a summary of all project expenses to date and a request for confirmation of the expenses that were not previously presented to the Oversight Board. Recommendation: That the Oversight Board approve the Oversight Board Resolution 2015 -0002, entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE OVERSIGHT BOARD FOR THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE ROSEMEAD COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION CONFIRMING THE AWARD OF CONTRACTS AND RELATED SUPPORT COSTS FOR THE ROSEMEAD PARK IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT — BASKETBALL COURTS C. Review of Designation Services — Zapopan Park Improvements Project As part of July 2010 tax increment bond issuance by the former Redevelopment Agency, the City included funding for a project to renovate and improve the facilities at Zapopan Park. The bond issuance included approximately $1,050,000 for miscellaneous improvements to Zapopan Park, including new play equipment for the southern playground, expansion of the parking lot, replacement of the existing basketball courts and restrooms, and the installation of a walking trail. Zapopan Park is located along an electrical transmission corridor belonging to the Southern California Edison Company (SCE) and the City has a long term license agreement for its utilization as park space. The approval process for the park improvements must clear both SCE and the California Public Utilities Commission for approval prior to construction. At this time, the city has undertaken preliminary survey and design work to begin pushing the project through the proper approval channels. Recommendation: That the Oversight Board approve the Oversight Board Resolution 2015 -0003, entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE OVERSIGHT BOARD FOR THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE ROSEMEAD COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION CONFIRMING THE SELECTION OF VARIOUS VENDORS FOR THE ZAPOPAN PARK IMPROVEMENT PROJECT Page 3 of 4 ROSEMEAD OVERSIGHT BOARD MEETING AGENDA February 9, 2015 D.
