Document Description
The 2008 Plan Amendment proposes to: (1) add 15.1 acres of developed land to the existing Merged Project Area, which together is known as the Project Area; (2) increase the tax increment limit of the existing Merged Central Business District and West End Redevelopment Project Area; and (3) reinstate the Agency's eminent domain authority on two commercial properties. The purpose of the 2008 Plan Amendment is to eliminate the conditions of physical and economic blight that exist in the Project Area through rehabilitation, revitalization and reuse of existing properties. This involves the creation of programs to eliminate physical and economic blight, fund infrastructure improvements, and provide incentives that will stimulate economic revitalization of the Project Area. The actions are all being taken in accordance with the provisions of the California Community Redevelopment Law, Health and Safety Code Section 33000, et seq.
