   An act to add Section 33214.7 to the Health and Safety Code,
relating to redevelopment.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 977, as amended, Hollingsworth.  Redevelopment.
  Redevelopment: Redevelopment Agency of the County of
Riverside. 
   The Community Redevelopment Law provides that the territorial
jurisdiction of a county redevelopment agency is the unincorporated
territory in that county.
   This bill would require that the territorial jurisdiction of the
Redevelopment Agency of the County of Riverside include specified
former agency territory now within the geographic boundaries of the
City of Menifee or the City of Wildomar  , unless
jurisdiction over that territory is transferred from the agency to
either of those cities, as specified  . The bill would also
authorize the agency to apply specified housing units within that
territory toward specified low- or moderate-income housing
obligations of the agency.
   This bill would apply its provisions retroactively and
prospectively to the above-described former agency territory.
   This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to
the necessity of a special statute for the Redevelopment Agency of
the County of Riverside.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 33214.7 is added to the Health and Safety Code,
to read:
   33214.7.  (a) Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, the
territorial jurisdiction of the Redevelopment Agency of the County of
Riverside shall include any former agency territory now within the
geographic boundaries of the City of Menifee or the City of Wildomar
with respect to which the agency, prior to the incorporation of the
applicable city,  (1)  entered into a binding agreement with
a third party in furtherance of the purposes set forth in Section
33334.2  ,   and (2)  acquired land or
otherwise expended money from its Low and Moderate Income 
Housing  Fund established pursuant to Section 33334.3  ,
or undertook an affirmative action in opposition to the
incorporation of that territory under Section 33215, 33216, or 33217,
unless jurisdiction over that territory is transferred from the
agency to either of those cities pursuant to Section 33215 or 33216,
or an agreement entered into pursuant to Section 33217  .
   (b) This section shall apply retroactively and prospectively to
the territory specified in subdivision (a).
    (c) The agency may apply towards its obligations under
subdivision (b) of Section 33413 units described in clause (ii) of
subparagraph (A) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 33413
that are located within the territory specified in subdivision (a).
  SEC. 2.  The Legislature finds and declares that a special law is
necessary and that a general law cannot be made applicable within the
meaning of Section 16 of Article IV of the California Constitution
because of the unique need to redress ambiguity as to the nature of
returns on investments by the Redevelopment Agency of the County of
Riverside in former agency territory now within the geographic
boundaries of the City of Menifee or the City of Wildomar.
