(Community Development Director) Minutes June 27, 1995 Page 2 Mr. Goss stated the overall City budget included the Redevelopment Agency budget. Staff was bringing both budgets forward together. He then presented an overview of the budget with transparencies. The actual deficit of the Agency was approximately $2.5 million and that was assuming conservatively that the growth of the tax increment would be about 2 %. Acting Chair Rindone stated the debt service was almost $3 millon and questioned if it went to the year 2024. Lyle Haynes, Principal Community Development Specialist, replied that the debt service, $2.957 million, contained the tax allocation bonds for the Bayfront, the BCT, CHIP program, and insurance premiums costs through 2011. The only difference between the $2.957 and the amount on the overhead was the certificates of participation, i.e. $2,055,000 because that amount was in the General Fund budget and would not be approved with the RDA budget. Chris Salomone, Director of Community Development, stated the $2.446 million was through 2024. Acting Chair Rindone stated he could not agree with the statement in the General Overview which stated "The result has been that the Agency has not experienced the tax increment growth necessary in order to protect the General Fund from exposure". He felt that was part of it but the land sales, investments made where top dollar was paid, and the need to get future projects on line significantly contributed to it. It was not just the tax increment growth. RESOLUTION 1459 OFFERED BY MEMBER ALEVY, reading of the text was waived, passed and approved 4-0-1 with Horton absent.
