INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Steinorth

                        FEBRUARY 17, 2016

   An act to amend Section 33334.5 of the Health and Safety Code,
relating to redevelopment.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 2050, as introduced, Steinorth. Redevelopment.
   The Community Redevelopment Law authorizes the establishment of
redevelopment agencies in communities to address the effects of
blight, as defined, and requires that not less than 20% of taxes
allocated to an agency be dedicated for the provision of low- and
moderate-income housing. Existing law requires that every
redevelopment plan adopted or amended after January 1, 1977, to
expand a project area contain a provision that affordable housing
units destroyed or removed from the low- and moderate-income housing
market as part of a redevelopment project be replaced with dwelling
units at affordable cost, as described.
   Existing law dissolved redevelopment agencies as of February 1,
2012, and designates successor agencies to act as successor entities
to the dissolved redevelopment agencies. Existing law provides for
the continued application of specified provisions of the Community
Redevelopment Law under certain circumstances.
   This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to the provision of
the Community Redevelopment Law requiring the replacement of
affordable housing units.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.
