EXHIBIT A
PURPOSE OF PROPOSED AMENDMENT
OF CENTRAL CAMPBELL
REDEVELOPMENT PLAN
By Ordinance No. 1461 adopted June 21, 1983, the City
Council of the City of -Campbell adopted the, Redevelopment Plan
for the Central Campbell Redevelopment Project (the
"Redevelopment Plan"). The Redevelopment Plan calls for
comprehensive revitalization of an approximately 260 acre area
(the -"Project Area"), generally located in and around downtown
Campbell, for commercial, residential, industrial and mixed use
development (please refer to the attached map of the Project Area
boundaries).
At this time, the City of Campbell Redevelopment Agency (the
"Agency") is proposing for consideration by the City Council
certain technical amendments to the Redevelopment Plan described
generally as follows.
1. Update of Goals and Objectives. The redevelopment
goals and objectives set forth in the Redevelopment Plan would be
updated through the proposed amendment to reflect evolving
development opportunities and community needs over .the past seven
years. The update of goals and objectives would not modify the
basic purpose of the Redevelopment Plan or require the addition
of significant new capital improvement projects to the
-1-
Redevelopment Plan or the modification of the fiscal limits set
forth in the Redevelopment Plan..
2. Update of Owner Participation Process. Consistent with
the Agency's adopted Rules for Owner Participation, the proposed
amendment would clarify the process for designation of parcels to
be assembled for unified development under the Redevelopment Plan
and the process for selection of master developers to undertake
such unified developments. Such clarifications would reflect
evolving court decisions regarding owner participation to fairly
balance the interests of current property owners in the
redevelopment of their own properties with the occasional need
for the Agency to assemble adjacent parcels to ensure their
effective redevelopment.
3. General Plan Conformance. At the time of adoption of
the Redevelopment Plan, its goals, objectives, policies and land
use designations and standards were consistent with the then
existing General Plan for the City of Campbell. The
Redevelopment Plan is proposed to be modified to maintain
conformity with the current General Plan and to provide that
subsequent revisions of the land use designations and standards
of the General Plan will be automatically incorporated in the
Redevelopment Plan, thus ensuring ongoing conformity between the
Redevelopment Plan and the General Plan. Such ongoing conformity
will implement the planning objectives of'the California
103000.P50 - 2 -
Community Redevelopment Law, the California Planning and Zoning
Law, and local planning policies.
4. Streamlining the Development Approval Process. The
Redevelopment Plan currently sets forth an Agency review and
approval process for developments in the Project Area that is, in
several respects, separate from and in addition to the normal
City development review and approval process. The proposed
amendment would provide that the normal City development review
and approval process will serve as the primary process for
developments in the Project.Area under the Redevelopment Plan.
5. Eminent Domain Power. The Redevelopment Plan grants
the Agency the power of eminent domain, under specified
circumstances, through June 1995. The proposed amendment would
extend such authority to a date that is twelve years after the
date of adoption of the proposed amendment (approximately to
December 2002), as permitted by the California Community
Redevelopment Law through the redevelopment plan amendment
process. Following such amendment, all Redevelopment Plan and
state law safeguards and requirements with respect to property
acquisition and relocation benefits would continue to apply.
This extension of time to exercise the power of eminent domain is
necessary to enable the Agency to implement its acquisition
program in an orderly fashion over the coming decade, without
having to make.precipitous decisions that may adversely affect
103000.P50 - 3 -
property owners in.order to meet a premature acquisition
deadline.
The proposed amendment to the Redevelopment Plan,will not
expand the Project Area, change any of the financial provisions
of the Redevelopment Plan (e.g. limits on allocation of tax
increment revenue to the Agency or amount of.outstanding bonded
indebtedness), or modify.the'basic purpose of the Redevelopment
Plan and powers of the Agency.
Thus, the proposed amendments are -not of the type described
in Health and Safety Code Section 33354.6 which would require
observance of the procedures set forth,in the Community
Redevelopment Law for the adoption of an initial redevelopment
.plan. Instead, the Agency and the City Council will comply with
all requirements for adoption of an amendment of a redevelopment
plan as set forth in Health and Safety Code Sections 33450-
33458.
