           SUBJECT  :    Budget Act of 2009:  Community Redevelopment

           SOURCE  :     Author


           DIGEST  :    As it left the Senate, this bill expressed the  
          intent of the Legislature to enact necessary statutory  
          changes relating to the Budget Act of 2009.  

           Assembly Amendments  deleted the prior version of the bill  
          and made the necessary statutory changes to implement the  
          community redevelopment portions of the 2009-10 Budget, as  
                                                           CONTINUED

          specified below.

           ANALYSIS  :    This bill amends language adopted with the  
          2008 Budget Act that shifts $350 million in Redevelopment  
          Agency funds to school districts and results in state  
          General Fund savings of the same amount.  This bill is  
          intended to address the issues raised in an adverse court  
          ruling.  Specifically, the Sacramento Superior Court (in  
           California Redevelopment Association v. Genest  ) invalidated  
          the 2008-09 shift on the basis that the funds were to be  
          transferred to the county Educational Revenue Augmentation  
          Funds for countywide education funding without any specific  
          linkage to the redevelopment projects or areas.  This  
          measure directs the shifted funds to school districts that  
          fully or partially overlap redevelopment project areas from  
          which the funds are shifted.  Allocations to the districts  
          will be in proportion to their average daily attendance.   
          As provided in the 2008-09 legislation, the amount shifted  
          from each redevelopment agency will be in proportion to its  
          share of statewide tax increment revenues.
