to and 11 WHEREAS, consistent with the provisions of the HSC, on January 9, 2012 the 12 Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino elected to serve in the capacity of 13 the Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency of the City of San Bernardino (the 14 "Successor Agency"); and is WHEREAS, the Oversight Board for the Successor Agency ("Oversight Board") 16 has been established pursuant to HSC § 34179 to assist in the wind-down of the dissolved 17 redevelopment agency; and 18 WHEREAS, on September 15, 2015, the Successor Agency submitted its Oversight 19 Board-approved Long-Range Property Management Plan (the "LRPMP") to the California 20 Department of Finance (the "DOF"); and 21 WHEREAS, the LRPMP, which addresses the disposition and use of the real 22 property assets held by the Successor Agency, includes 230 parcels of land grouped into 23 forty-six (46) separate sites, seven (7) of which are designated as future development sites 24 and are listed within in Exhibit"A" to this Resolution; and 25 WHEREAS, pursuant to HSC § 34179.7, on December 22, 2015, the Successor 26 Agency received its Finding of Completion (the "FOC") from DOF that, among other 27 28 matters, enabled the Successor Agency's eligibility for a DOF approval of its LRPMP; and 1 1 WHEREAS, on December 31, 2015, the DOF approved the Successor Agency's 2 LRPMP and notified the Successor Agency that pursuant to HSC § 34191.3, the approved 3 LRPMP shall govern, and supersede all other provisions relating to the disposition and use of 4 all the real property assets of the former redevelopment agency; and 5 WHEREAS, notwithstanding the foregoing recital, in its letter dated May 17, 2016, 6 the DOF: (i) directed the Successor Agency to transfer LRPMP-designated future 7 development sites to the City;

and 10 11 WHEREAS, DOF's diminishment of funding needed to maintain the Successor 12 Agency's real property assets has caused a financial necessity to the transfer of the LRPMP- 13 designated future development sites (i.e., LRPMP site Nos. 20-26) to the City as soon as 14 possible and to accelerate, where possible, the ultimate disposition of such assets to third 15 party entities;

and 19 WHEREAS, HSC § 34191.3 provides that an approved LRPMP supersedes all other 20 provisions of the HSC related to the disposition of the real property assets of the former 21 redevelopment agency and the approved LRPMP provides that the disposition of future 22 development sites may only occur subsequent to the approval of a compensation agreement 23 by all affected taxing entities consistent with HSC § 34180 (f) (1); and 24 WHEREAS, notwithstanding the inconsistency of the DOF Directive, it 25 recommended that the Successor Agency and the City comply with the DOF Directive by 26 transferring the LRPMP-designated future development sites to the City with the proviso that 27 the City will only transfer the LRPMP-designated future development sites to third party 28 2 1 entities subsequent to the approval of a compensation agreement by all affected taxing 2 entities, thus ensuring consistency with the intent of HSC § 34191.3 and the LRPMP; and 3 WHEREAS, this resolution will authorize the City's acceptance of the Successor 4 Agency's transfer of the LRPMP-designed future development sites to the City, including all 5 tangible and intangible personal property related thereto, at no cost via quitclaim deeds that 6 include a certificate of acceptance, the format of which is incorporated within the form quitclaim 7 deed that is attached hereto as Exhibit "B";
