Redevelopment |
- Redevelopment is a process created to assist government in eliminating blight from a designated area, and to achieve desired development, reconstruction and rehabilitation including but not limited to: residential, commercial, industrial and retail. The California Community Redevelopment Law, is contained in the California Health and Safety Code beginning with Section 33000 et seq., also see Article XVI, Section 16 of the California Constitution, adopted in 1952 by initiative for further information.
- The Redevelopment Agency in this county is the Board of Supervisors. Please keep in mind that the Redevelopment Agency and the Board are two separate distinct legal entities.
- A redevelopment plan presents a process and a basic framework within which specific projects will be undertaken. The plan provides the Agency with powers to take certain actions such as to buy and sell land within the area covered by the plan (project area), improving dilapidated facilities and to use tax increment financing.
- A project area is where the actual redevelopment will take place. The project area must first go to public hearing (giving citizens who will be included in the project area a chance to express their views) after which the Redevelopment Agency acts on the adoption of the project area and becomes primarily responsible for future projects.
- Within the Planning Department is the Redevelopment staff for Stanislaus County. Staff of the Agency, prepares, maintains and implements the Redevelopment Plan in accordance with state law and the policies of the Agency.
- Stanislaus County Redevelopment Agency was established in 1991.
- Also under the Redevelopment Agency is the Down Payment Assistance Program. This program provides funds in the form of a loan to an income-eligible household for purposes of acquiring a single-family residence. The assistance money can be deferred as long as the owner maintains continuous residence.
