and WHEREAS, the community Development Commission of the city of San Bernardino (the "Commission") on behalf of the Redevelopment Agency of the City of San Bernardino (the "Agency"), is a redevelopment agency, a public body, corporate and politic of the State of California, organized and existing pursuant to the Community Redevelopment Law (Part 1 of Division 24) commencing with Section 3 3 000 of the Health and Safety Code of the State of California (the "Act"); and WHEREAS, pursuant to section 33445 of the Act, the Agency may, with the consent of the Mayor and Common Council of the City ("the council"), pay all or part of the costs of installation and construction of any building, facility, structure or other - 1 - improvement which is publicly owned either within or without the boundaries of a redevelopment project area if the Council determines: (1) that such buildings, facilities, structures or other improvements are of benefit to the redevelopment project area or the immediate neighborhood in which the project is located, regardless of whether such improvements are within another project area, or in the case of a project area in which substantially all of the land is publicly owned, that the improvements are of benefit to the adjacent project area of the Agency, and (2) that no other reasonable means of financing such buildings, facili ties, structures or other improvements is available to the community, and such determination by the Agency and the Council shall be final and conclusive; and WHEREAS, the City and the commission have previously approved and adopted a Redevelopment Plan for the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project (the "Redevelopment Plan"); and WHEREAS, the Agency has approved the establishment of certain lines of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the "Lines of Credit") one of which is to be secured by collateral from the various redevelopment project areas of the Agency; and WHEREAS, the Agency deems it desirable to undertake certain redevelopment projects and activities in both the Northwest - 2 - Redevelopment Project Area and the South Valle Redevelopment project Area of the Agency, which projects and activities include but are not limited to the acquisition, construction and installation of certain public improvements, and facilities (the "Redevelopment Projects"); and WHEREAS, the Agency deems it desirable to use revenues available through the Lines of Credit to undertake the Redevelopment Projects in both the Northwest Redevelopment Project Area and the South Valle Redevelopment Project Area but in order to do so the Agency must obligate certain collateral presently existing and available within the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment project Area for the purposes of securing the Lines of Credit; and WHEREAS, the undertaking of the Redevelopment Projects in both the Northwest Redevelopment Project Area and the South Valle Redevelopment Project Area will enable the Agency to further its redevelopment objectives within the entire City and will assist in the overall redevelopment of all of the various project areas of the Agency located within the boundaries of the city; and WHEREAS, the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project Area is presently experiencing demand for commercial and industrial land by land intensive users, which land is not readily - 3 - available within the Southeast Industrial Park Project Redevelopment Area; and WHEREAS, the undertaking of the Redevelopment Projects within the Northwest Redevelopment Project Area will be of benefit to the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project Area to the extent that the Northwest Redevelopment Project Area can accommodate demand for industrial and commercial land which demand cannot be accommodated in the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project Area because of the lack of available land suitable for the types of users seeking to locate in the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project Area; and WHEREAS, land which is more suited for the types of development seeking to locate in the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project Area is readily available within the Northwest Redevelopment Project Area and such land is more appropriate to accommodate some of the industries and business otherwise seeking to locate in the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project Area because of the Northwest Redevelopment Project Area's proximity to freeway and rail facilities and because land costs are considerably less expensive for land intensive activities; and WHEREAS, by development because providing land which of the existence of - 4 - is suitable for adequate public improvements in alternative locations such as the Northwest Redevelopment project Area, the Agency will be able to accommodate other development within the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project Area which is better suited to such project area in terms of the economic viability of that portion of the city. WHEREAS, the Northwest Redevelopment Project Area provides a viable alternative location for industries seeking to undertake industrial and commercial activities who cannot locate within the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project Area because of the economics associated with locating in such Project Area and accordingly, such industries are more likely to locate in the Northwest Redevelopment Project Area rather than in areas outside of the city to the extent the Agency is able to provide adequate public improvements, and facilities within the Northwest Redevelopment Project Area; and WHEREAS, because of the interaction between the Agency's various project areas, the ability of the Agency to keep industrial and commercial growth within any of its project areas is of benefit to all of its project areas; and WHEREAS, the undertaking of the Redevelopment Projects within the South Valle Redevelopment Project Area will be of benefit to the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project Area - 5 - because of the proximity of the South Valle Redevelopment Project Area to the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project Area and the commercial and industrial interaction between the two project areas which in turn stimulates economic development within both project areas; and WHEREAS, the ability to provide public improvements and facilities in the South Valle Redevelopment Project Area will encourage economic growth and development in such project area, which economic growth and development, because of proximity, will spillover to the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project Area and cause the Southeast Industrial Park Redevelopment Project Area to also experience economic growth and development; and WHEREAS, the ability to provide public improvements and facilities within the South Valle Redevelopment Project Area will make all adjacent project areas more attractive for economic growth since the users locating in the adjacent project areas will be able to benefit from the provision of such improvements and facilities; and WHEREAS, it is appropriate at this time for the Council to make certain findings and determinations and take certain action with respect to the acquisition, installation and construction of the public improvements and the undertaking of the various - 6 - Redevelopment Projects in both the South Valle Redevelopment Project Area and the Northwest Redevelopment Project Area.
