Hold Public Hearing on the Redevelopment Agency’s 1993-94 Budget. 2. Adopt Resolution No. J&adopting the final Operating Budget for 1993-94. ITEM EXPLANATION: This item is established to allow the public the opportunity to comment on the Housing and the Redevelopment Agency proposed Operating Budgets. The Commission is encouraged to ask any questions related to the Budgets that may still need clarification. Following the public hearing, the Commission may adopt the Operating Budgets for 1993-94. The table below compares the budgets of the three elements that are part of the Redevelopment Agency budget. % 92-93 93-94 Increase Budget Budget [Decrease) Operations $779,926 $628,455 (24.2%) Low & Moderate Housing 106,329 105,000 (.9%) Debt Service 1.137.938 1.094.550 (3.9%) $1,828,0OLj $2.024,193_ (10.7%) Total revenues to the Agency are budgeted at $1.8 million, with the primary source of funds being the property tax increment revenues which are budgeted at $1.6 million. There is no increase over 1992-93 revenues projected. As required, 20% of the total tax increment revenues have been set aside for Low and Moderate Housing. After the 20% Housing set aside, and budgeting for debt service, it is necessary.for the General Fund to loan $80,000 to the Redevelopment Operations. The Housing Section 8 Operating Budget is comprised of the following three programs: Oh 92-93 93-94 Increase Budget Budget [Decrease) Section 8 Assistance Certificate $2,144,976 $2,244,356 4.6% Voucher 372,098 550,558 48.0% Portable Voucher 94,820 96,400 1.7% $2.611.894 $2,89m 10.7% ‘. Page Two of Agenda Bill No. a 3 0 The preceding Section 8 Housing programs are funded through the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development. The voucher program increase is due to additional federal funding for rental assistance payments. FGXALlMPACX The fiscal impacts of the proposed Operating Budgets are detailed in the attached pages. Redevelopment Agency operations and Low and Moderate Housing are funded from the property tax increment for the redevelopment area. Low and Moderate Housing receives 20% of the property tax increment, with the remaining 80% used for debt service and operations. The proposed budget includes an $80,000 loan from the General Fund to the Agency, bringing the total General Fund loan to approximately $8 million at June 30,1993. The Agency debt to the General Fund continues to escalate each year because the unpaid interest on the debt is added to the loan. The Housing Section 8 fund receives sufficient Federal funds to cover housing program expenses; however not all administrative services provided by the City General Fund are included in the budget. Estimated General Fund administrative services of $117,000 are reimbursed $37,300, with the unreimbursed General Fund costs an annual subsidy from the City to support Housing Section 8 programs. l!xHIBITs: 1.
