10.1    PUBLIC HEARING:  FIVE-YEAR IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR THE MERGED SANTA ROSA CENTER AND GRACE BROTHERS REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AREAS 

BACKGROUND:  California Community Redevelopment Law (Health & Safety Code 33000 et seq.) requires that an Implementation Plan for a Redevelopment Project Area be adopted every five years following a public hearing.  On October 11, 1994, the City council adopted Ordinances 3149 and 3150 merging the Santa Rosa Center and the Grace Brothers Redevelopment Project Areas.  This Implementation Plan is a policy and program planning document that guides and sets priorities for redevelopment activities, including programs, potential projects and estimated expenditures within the Merged Project Areas based on Agency goals and objectives to assist in the alleviation or elimination of blight and the development and rehabilitation of affordable housing for five year period covered by the Implementation Plan. 

RECOMMENDATION:  The Department of Economic Development and Housing recommends that the Redevelopment Agency hold a public hearing and adopt, by resolution, the Five-Year Implementation Plan for the Merged Santa Rosa Center and Grace Brothers Redevelopment Project Areas from January 2010 through December 2014.
