City of Culver City, California Agenda Item Report RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council discuss and provide comments and recommendations to Mayor O’Leary regarding mayoral appointments to the Oversight Board established by AB 1X 26 (the Redevelopment Agency Dissolution Bill). BACKGROUND: Pursuant to AB 1X 26 (AB 26), the Redevelopment Agency Dissolution Bill, the Culver City Redevelopment Agency (CCRA) was dissolved effective at 12:01 AM on February 1, 2012. As provided in AB 26, on January 9, 2012, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2012-R001 affirmatively electing to have the City serve as the Successor Agency to the Culver City Redevelopment Agency (“Successor Agency”). AB 26 (specifically, Section 34179 of the California Health and Safety Code) also established an Oversight Board comprised of seven members, with members selected as follows: • One member appointed by the county board of supervisors. • One member appointed by the mayor for the city that formed the redevelopment agency.

If the county superintendent of education is appointed, then the appointment made pursuant to this paragraph shall be made by the county board of education. • One member appointed by the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges to represent community college districts in the county. • One member of the public appointed by the county board of supervisors. • One member representing the employees of the former redevelopment agency appointed by the mayor or chair of the board of supervisors, as the case may be, from the recognized employee organization representing the largest number of former redevelopment agency employees employed by the successor agency at that time. Of the seven members, in the case of the Oversight Board of the Successor Agency to the CCRA, two members are appointed by the Mayor of Culver City (one of which represents the employees of the former redevelopment agency). During the City Council meeting of February 6, 2012, the City Council granted Mayor O’Leary’s request to place a discussion of this item on the February 13, 2012 agenda of the City Council. DISCUSSION: While the provisions of Section 34179 empower the Mayor to appoint these members of the Oversight Board, Mayor O’Leary requested the opportunity to receive City Council comments and recommendations on this subject. The “recognized employee organization representing the largest number of former redevelopment agency employees” would be the Culver City Management Group.
