• EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In August 1998, Seifel Associates presented the Petaluma Community Development
Commission with a docuinent:entitled Petaluma Redevelopment Strategies. In the report, several
important strategies for the Redevelopment Agency were recommended. In 1999, the Agency
engaged Seifel Associates to implement one=of the Strategies:and initiate a process to determine
the feasibility of amending'the Central Business District (CBD) Project Area Redevelopment
Plan by expanding the Project Area boundaries'and.extending its life.
On January 16, 2001 the Petaluma Community Development, Commission approved the
Preliminary Report for the Central Business District Redevelopment Plan Amendment; received
the Draft Environment Impact Report; received the Draft Amended and Restated Redevelopment
Plan for the Central Business District Project; and authorized the distribution of same to effected
taxing entities. Subsequently, as required by 'State -law, Redevelopment staff and consultants
have conferred with the effected taxingkentities.concerning the proposed amendment.
On February 27, 2001, the-Planning Commission of the City of.Petaluma held a noticed a public
hearing for the purpose Of the Adequacy of the-Draft•EIR;,Considering Comments
on the Draft EIR, Identifying Any Revisions Desired in the Final ER; and Authorizing the
Preparation of a Final EIR/Response to 'Comments. The Planning Commission also reviewed
and commented upon the Preliminary Report to Council and the Draft Amended and Restated
Redevelopment Plan for the CBD Project Area The Planning Commission adopted a resolution
recommending the,approval and adoption of the Second Amendment to the CBD Project Area
• Plan with several'amendments.
The next step in the CBD Plan Amendment process is for the-City Council/PCDC to adopt the
attached resolution's.
2. BACKGROUND: •
The Report to Council is a public document designed to provide background information to the
PCDC and taxing entities affected by the proposed Amendment to the Redevelopment Project.
The purpose of the Report is to:
• Set forth the reasons for the selection of the project area;
• Show blight:and urbanization evidence;
• Explain programs and activities the.Agency intends to implement to
eliminate blight;
• Propose financing mechanisms for such programs and activities;.and
• Provide a description of how the projects will eliminate blight.
With respect to the companion Draft Environmental Impact Report, the document, has been
prepared and was circulated on January 12, 2001 after which there is a 45-day comment period
for the public,to provide comments. The Planning Commission reviewed and commented upon
the Draft EIR , the ,Preliminary Report to Council and the Draft Amended and. Restated
Redevelopment-Plan for the-CBD Project Area at their meeting of February 27, 2001. Pursuant
to Section 33346 of the Community Redevelopment Law, the Commission found that the
proposed Second Amendment to the Redevelopment Plan for the Central Business District
Redevelopment Project conforms to the General Plan of the City of Petaluma. Additionally, •
pursuant to Section.65402 of the Government Code, with respect to public activities which may
be undertaken within the area added by the Second Amendment and the original'Project Area
pursuant to the Redevelopment Plan, as amended by the Second,Amendment, the Commission.
determined such activities and undertakings conform to the General Plan of the City of Petaluma
and forwarded the DEIR to the City Council.of Petaluma, including Commission comments, and
authorized the preparation:of a Final.EIR at the,end of the comment period.
In summary, the proposed Plan Amendment will extend various time and financial limits of the
Existing CBD Redevelopment Plan, as well as add territory (Added Area) to the-CBD Project
Area (Existing Area): The proposed Added Area consists of approximately 127 acres of
commercial, industrial and residential land uses located to the west and east of the-Existing Area
Figure I-2 in the attached Reportshows the location of the Amended Area (the combination of
the Existing Area and Added Area).
The Redevelopment Plan Amendment;will provide the Agency with needed additional jegal and
financial resources to alleviate blighting conditions, implement.the Central Petaluma Specific
Plan, and economic development in the Existing Area The Amendment is proposed to
enhance the Agency's ability to eliminate blight in the Amended Area in a more effective
manner than is possible under theRedevelopment Plan in place at this time.
3. ALTERNATIVES:
•
Whiletit:would delay the possible expansion of the project area and the extension of the time
limit for debt collection in the Existing Area by about six months, the City Council could expand
the project area boundaries to include additional property beyond what is already contemplated
and approved for study. Otherwise, the CBD Project Area (the Existing Area) consists of
• approximately 98 acres and encompasses the majority of the historic.downtown core of the City
Horn D Street to Washington Street and from Lakeville. Street to Liberty and 5th Streets. The
proposed Plan Amendment would add approximately 127 acres to the Existing.Area, creating a
225-acre Amended Area.
As shown in Figure I-2 in the attached Report to Council, the proposed Added Area is located in
two areas, to the west and east of the Existing Area., The western portion of the Added Area is
generally bounded by Union Street, Western Avenue; Howard. Street, and Liberty Street. The
eastern portion of the Added Area is generally bounded by'D Street, McNear Avenue, the
Northwest Pacific Railroad, and Petaluiria Boulevard (the western:portion does not include the
• McNear Peninsula of McNear Channel).
4. FINANCIAL IMPACTS:
According to.the chart below, the Added Area of the CBD ProjectArea will have a property tax
base assessed value of approximately $49 million. All of the affected taxing entities will
continue to receive their share of property taxes from the base assessed value in both the Existing
and Added Area. Assuming°a 1% property.tax rate, the entities will continue to receive about
$188,000 from the existing area and about $488,000 from the Added Area. Chapter IV of the
attached .Preliminary Report describes the proposed methods for financing the proposed
Redevelopment Program projects' and activities in the Amended Project Area if the Plan
• Amendment is adopted. Chapter IV also demonstrates the financial feasibility of the Amended
Redevelopment Program by comparing available funding sources for the Amended Project Area
with projected Redevelopment Program costs. •

•
• The CRL imposes specific time and fiscal=limits on particular Agency activities for a new Plan or
for the territory added to-an existing plan. These time limits affect the amount of tax increment
revenue an agency can receive: Under the-proposed Plan Amendment, the time and fiscal limits
of the proposed Added Area would be the same as the limits of a new plan.
•
5. CONCLUSION:
In 1998, the PCDC approved and adopted the Petaluma Redevelopment, Strategy which •
recommended adding the portions of the Central Petaluma Specific Plan,(Specific Plan) that are
not currently in either the City's Central Business District (CBD) or Petaluma Community
Development (PCD) Redevelopment Project Areas. The FY 2000-01 PCDC Budget contains
funds for Seifel Associates to prepare a CBD Plan Amendment that would expand the CBD
Project Area.
As,the next step in the Plan Amendment process, the City Council/PCDC is.requested to adopt
the attached resolutions that will take the CBD Plan Amendment process to the next step of
having a public hearing. The purpose of the public hearing is to receive written and oral
testimony regarding the proposed Amendment, and to consider certifying the adequacy of the
EIR, adopt the proposed mitigation measures and, if necessary, adopt a statement of overriding
considerations.

The meeting began, with introductions by the staff and consultants representing the City of
Petaluma. Approximately twenty-five business and property owners were welcomed to the io

feasibility of°amending the Central Business:.District Project Area Plan to expand the District. At

Summary of Meeting'#2: Page-1.of 7
•• .Questions &Answers
The following is-a summary of the questionsLand answers that were discussed at the meeting.
While this portion,of the summary is not a.detailed account of the discussion, it nonetheless
provides the reader with a good`sense of the content of discussion.
Question #1: Does the CorriniunityDevelopment Commission have the power to superimpose
• its will upon the property owners in the project area or do, they have to put the proposed
expansion to a majority vote? •
Answer: The City Council/PCDC is elected to represent the interests of the entire community
• and is therefore empowered by,redevelopment law to have the final say in all matters involving
the amendment of projectarea plans.
Question #2: How was the area to be added determined?
•
Answer: The expansion roughly includes the area covered by'the Central Petaluma Specific
Plan, which is not currently in either of the City's existing redevelopmentareas. This was done
in order to use redevelopment funds to implement the specific plan as part of an objective to
eliminate blighting influences:in`the expanded area. The Council/PCDC was also interested in
creating gateways to the City atthelollowing locations:
• Petaluma„Blvd. :South •E. Washington/Bodega
0 Additionally, the time limit for issuing debt-in the current plan will expire in 2001 after which time
the Agency will be unable to incur debt for new projects and programs in the district. By
amending the redevelopment area the Agency extends its ability'to incur debt to 2011. In the
added area of the district, debt can be incurred through 2021.. .This will provide the additional
resources necessary to impleihentthe Central Petaluma Specific Plan.
Question #3: What about the of Central Petaluma Specific Plan area that is not part
of the proposed CBD Project.Area ;expansion? Why wasn't'it included in the CBD expanded
area?
•
Answer: The remainder of the Central Petaluma'Specific Plan area is locatedwithin the City's
other redevelopment area, the Petaluma Community Development Project Area. .
Question #4: if the CBD Project Area is•expanded, what is1le impact of the loss of revenue on
services provided by the County and other taxing agencies currently receiving a portion-of
property taxes from the area?
Answer: Most services within the proposed expanded area are currently provided by the City •
of Petaluma The way redevelopment works is that;;those agencies currently receiving a share
of property taxes from the expanded area keep that share which is frozen at the current level.
As property values in the expanded area increase, (either through new development,
rehabilitation, resale or by the 2% annual: inflation factor provided under Proposition 13),
approximately 70% of the increased incremental taxes are allocated to the CBD Project Area.
The remaining 30% of the increase in property taxes is allocated to the other taxing agencies as
0 follows:
•59% Schools •18% County of`Sonoma •13%City of Petaluma • 5% Community College
•3%Special Districts • 2% Library

10/26/00
Summary of Meeting#2: Page 2 of?
Question #5:' What happens to City schools if they get a decrease in property taxes? What is •
the impact on sewer and water services/for those in the added areas? Will they have to pay a
special assessment?
Answer: Under State law, the schools continue.to'receivethe full funding they would before the
project area expansion. Schools are guaranteed funding with any "lost" funding to be,made up
by the State as provided by law. In addition, redevelopment contributes to a capital .fund.
Water and sewer infrastructure and operations: are:funded by an Enterprise Fund specifically
established for those purposes. There are no special assessments in the PCDC.,
Question #6i If property taxes from the Central Business District go to fund the implementation
of the CentraLPetaluma Specific Plan, will':'all current revenue from the Central Business District
be allocated'? Where money come from to undertake Central. Petaluma Specific Plan
projects/infrastructure if,Central Business District income is not available?
Answer: With current redevelopment district boundaries there is insufficient'revenue.available
from the 'Project- Area for 'the implementation of the Central Petaluma Specific Plan. The
Agency's annual contribution of $70,000'to the Petaluma Downtown Association will also
expire. Expansion of redevelopment area.allows tax increment financing "to continue and
expand the tax base, to create additional funding. Expanding the current boundaries also
extends the "expiration date" of the Project Area.
Question #7: How/whywill a.larger project area be able to create.greater income?
•
Answer: New development, a 2% annual increase:in assessed value'mandated by Proposition
13; and property turnover will increase property values. It is anticipated that the proposed
expanded area will include 150;000 'sq. ft of new office space in addition to 'residential
development. This will increase the property tax increment.
Question#8: If there is inadequate infrastructure now; how will new development occur?
Answer: The Agency recently obtained $18 million from a Tax Allocation Bond. These bonds
are being used to fund a portion of the Payran Reach Flood Management Project., The,,balance
of the funds has been allocated toward other redevelopment projects: Meanwhile, th'e City is
seeking additional Federal funds to pay for the flood project If Federal funding is obtained,
redevelopment money "can be, redirected toward the implementation of the Central Petaluma
Specific Plan and other infrastructure improvements. In the Agency's five-year financial.
forecast, approximately $3;000,000 has been allocated in budget for improvements to public
infrastructure in the<CBD''Project Area:. In addition, given the densities envisioned in the Central
Petaluma Specific Plan, it will likely be cost-effective for developers to include public
infrastructure as part of the overall development.,
Question#9:, Does:th a expansion of the CBD Project Area have to be voted on by owners,in
the district?
Answer: No. As it is not,a new tax or a tax increase, no voter approval is,required.
Question #10: What'is the impact of new downtown development on "D" Street and the "D" •
Street Bridge with:respect.to traffic and Fire Department response time?
City of Petaluma,California
10/26/00
Summary of Meeting#2: Page 3 of 7
0 Answer: Traffic impacts are analyzed in the Environmental;Impact Report (EIR) for the Central
Petaluma Specific Plan. The EIR for the CentraCPetalurna Specific Plan will be reviewed with
the public Within the next 60 days. You should address your concerns about the impact of
development as part of that public hearing 'process. The opportunity for public comment
regarding these impacts is required as part of the EIR process:
Question #11: What is the financial impact of'expanding,the Central Business District Project
Area with regard to schools?
Answer: Schools are "held harmless". What a school loses in redevelopment they get back
from the State.
Question #12: Are there any fees to business owners resulting from the approval of an
expanded CBD Project Area? .
Answer: No.
Question #13: How would those opposed to the expansion::of the District be able to stop it?
Answer: This meeting is an opportunity to understand the.proposal to extend the boundaries of
the redevelopment area. Citizens then have the opportunity:to,express their opinions at the City
Council public hearing on the subject.
•
0 Question #14: Will loans be available to property owners?
Answer: Yes. Currently there is a grant for the earthquake retrofit of eligible buildings in the
CBD Project Area. The Council/PCDC may wish to institute storefront improvement loans at a
later time.
Question #15: How much is the assessed value increasing in the CBD Project Area annually,
especially when property is held fora long time?
Answer: Assessed value in the, current CBD Project Area is growing slowly, less than 1% over
the past five years.
LL Question#16: What areas is•eminent domain planned for?
Answer: No properties areturrently being considered for eminent•domain.
The power of eminent domain is not currently included in the CBD Project Area Plan. Eminent
domain is the taking of property'•while paying fair market value. Part of the presentation to the
City Council will be the option of including eminent domain over.non-residential properties as
one of their powers when sitting as the Community Development Commission. The power to
exercise eminent domain adds;another"tool to the tool box" for redevelopment. Whether or not
to include the power of eminent domain in the Plan Amendment is a question for the City
Council. Currently, the City Council can take private property for public use (e.g. widening a
road). Only a Redevelopment Agency can exercise eminent domain (if given the power) and
take private property forredevelopment'purposes (e.g. taking'property, paying fair market value
0 and selling it to a private party for redevelopment).
City of Petaluma,California
10/26/00
Summary of Meeting#2: Page 4 of 7 .
Question #17: Since the City Council is also the Redevelopment Commission, can the City •
Council unilaterally approve eminent domain as a power of the redevelopment agency?
Answer: First of all, the City Council/PCDC is being asked to consider whether it wants the
power of eminent domain for non-residential purposes only, not residential purposes: If you
oppose eminent domain as a power of the City Council/PCDC, then you should express this at
•
the public hearing or sendia.letter to the Mayor.
Question #18:. Who can form a redevelopment district and determine its size?
Answer: The Petaluma Community Development Commission determines when and where to
form a redevelopment project area This is done only after extensive analysis is made to
determine whether such'an-action meets all the legal,requirements of State law:
Question #19: Since developers participated in the formulation of the Central Petaluma
Specific Plan, couldn't the developers benefit from this? For example, there is a hotel
envisioned in downtown Petaluma:
•
Answer: The Specific Plan process takes into account the entire community's concerns and
aspirations: Property owner's,opinions represent-only one aspect of public input. The Specific
Plan process is designed to balance all∎the interests. Additionally, when a public heanng is held
for the Central Petaluma Specific Plan, you will have the opportunity to express your concerns
about the Plan.
Question#20: If the power of eminent'domain is included in the Plan Amendment, what rights
do property owners have?
Answer: The power of eminent domain is rarely exercised by redevelopment agencies. In the
event that the PCDC deems it necessary, the agency engages a certified appraiser to determine
the fair market value of the property. The agency then offers to purchase the property based on
the appraised ,value. At this point the property owner can dispute the appraisal by providing his
or her own certified appraisal. The two parties then negotiate the terms of the purchase. In the
event that negotiations are unsuccessful, the matter can be resolved by a°third party arbitrator
orbythe court.
Ideas for Future Projects in an Expanded
Central Business District Project Area
The discussion. began.by noting that many residents and business owners have already
participated for many ,hours in the development of the Petaluma River Access. and
Enhancement Plan, the Bicycle Plan, and the Central Petaluma. Specific Plan.. These •plans
provide future direction for the expenditure of public funds for community improvements. The
question then arises, what:other improvements might be addressed. The following is a list of
ideas provided by the meeting participants:
Shopping opportunities: .— gift and Christmas shopping. There are no major downtown
department stores. We need upscale stores like Crate & Barrell, and Pottery Barn: Does the
City have a wish list of businesses? This would eliminate the need to drive to Santa Rosa and
keep more money in Petaluma.

• Traffic calming is needed on Petaluma'Blvd. from D Street South —cars parked on the street are
damaged by cars/trucks/buses;;for example,at 505 Petaluma Blvd. South & 304 Petaluma Blvd.
South. Traffic is too fast. Residents must fold in mirrors or have them broken off. People park
up to corner and limit visibility: Calming is needed, not widening.
Need public restrooms downtown, especially for special activities, out of towners.
•
Need trees along Petaluma Blvd.
Need a theme for street furniture and fixtures for downtown.
Eliminate traffic circle included in Central Petaluma Specific,;Plan. Large agricultural trucks will
pose a safety problem.
Need public access to the river in 1st Street area. Kids go through private property to get to
river. Fishing pier for public. Docks'for boaters if Turning Basin not dredged (other side of D
Street bridge).
No more "Stop"signs on west side —too many— people run them.
Consider impacts/height of increased intensity (3-4 story, buildings) downtown. ' Changes
downtown views and character. More people, more traffic.
•
Need more out-door seating, outdoor dining, for example, McNears and Dempseys.
Will commercial district guidelines apply to the expanded areas? We need consistent signage
for redevelopment.area.

More outdoor public spaces would increase private responsibility care for it.
Need art museum, local artists.
Parking structure not used to capacity— not clean, security concerns, access,people unaware.
Build a Performing.Arts Center.
Consider altering the traffic pattern on Keller & Kentucky— reconsider 2-way'traffic.

lane, landscaping. Only busy early AM and late PM.
On 2nd Street consider restricted parking — stickers for residents. One way road to slow traffic.
No stop signs. Traffic calming measures. Create:Park. Under sidewalk McNearbrick,— return
to historic block. •

Question #2: After the Central Business,District Project Area Paysroff the 1984 Tax Allocation
Bonds (TAB), how much tax increment would'be available for other purposes? When will the
special assessment for parking end
Answer: According to the FY2000-01 Adopted PCDC Budget, there is•a $930,000 balance on
the 1984 TAB. The annual costof the debt service is $135,800 and will be paid off in May 2010.
The special assessment for District 14 used to pay the property owner's share of the cost of
constructing the parking structure will end in September2003.
Question #3: If the Central Business District is expanded,when will it be effective?
Answer: July 2001.
Question #4: What laws govern the expansion of a redevelopment project area and how is the
timetable for expansion dictated?
Answer: California Community Redevelopment,Law(Health & Safety Code Section 33000 et
seq. governs the conditions under which a project area can expand, including the timetable for
public hearings and notices.
Question #5: Why is the use of eminent domain .being included in the Plan Amendment and
are any properties currently targeted?
Answer: No properties are currently being considered for eminent domain.
The power of eminent domain is not currently included in:the CBD Project Area Plan. Eminent
domain is the taking.of property while paying fair market value. Part of the presentation to the
' City Council will be the option of including eminent domain over non-residential properties as
one of their powers when sitting, as the 'Community Development Commission. The power to
exercise eminent domain adola.ahother "tool to the tool box",for redevelopment. Whether or not
to include the power of eminent domain in the Plan Amendment is a question for the City
Council. Currently, the City Council can take private property for public use (e.g. widening a
road). Only a Redevelopment;Agency can exercise eminent'domain (if given the power) and
take private property for redevelopment purposes(e.g. taking property, paying fair market value
and selling it to a private party;for redevelopment). The Plan Amendment provides for the use
of eminent domain for twelve years for the date of adoption.
Conclusion:
The meeting participants were advised that they would' receive a notice of a public hearing
along with a copy of°this summary when the matter of the CBD.Project Area Plan Amendment
comes before the City Council.

Redevelopment Plan to:
• Add 169 acres of territory to the existing Project Area as shown on the attached map

Proposed Western Amendment Survey Boundary' - 10 acres); and
• extend the time limit to issue debt for another 10 years;;and,
• add eminent domain powers over non-residential property.
2. What is redevelopment?
Redevelopment is a process; codified in California Community Redevelopment Law
(CRL), created to assist local governments in revitalizing urban areas. Petaluma has
two existing redevelopment projects: the Central Business District (CBD) and the
Petaluma Community Development (PCD) Project. The CBD was formed in 1976 and
consists of approximately 98 "acres in downtown Petaluma (identified as 'Central
Business District' on the attached map).
3. What is a redevelopment agency?
A redevelopment agency is'the administrative authority for a Redevelopment District.
The agency plans and implements a redevelopment plan. Petaluma's Redevelopment
Agency is called the Petaluma Community Development Commission (PCDC). The
Mayor and City Council serve as the Commissioners.
•
4. What is a Redevelopment Plan?
A redevelopment plan provides a legal framework for planning and implementing
revitalization activities in a project area and establishes a financing method to fund
these activities. A redevelopment plan is often used to help implement a city's General
Plan or Specific Plan.
5. What has been accomplished in the CBD Project Area?
The CBD Project Area has generated approximately $9 million in tax increment
revenues for projects in the downtown area. Most of its funds have been spent on the
following projects:
• Downtown parking(Keller Street parking garage,.A Street Parking Lot).

CBD Plan Amendment Q&As
Page 1 of 4
• Pedestrian improvements (Golden Concourse, Riverwalk Plan and Putnam Plaza). •
• Dredging the Turning Basin.
• Unreinforced Masonry (URM) seismic retrofit grant program ($2 per square foot for
eligible buildings°upon completion of work).
• Affordable housing projects (per State law 20% of redevelopment - tax increment
revenues must be set aside for affordable housing).
6. • Why amend the CBD Redevelopment Project?
To allow the City/PCDC to continue implementing the goals and objectives of the
Redevelopment Plan through the following actions:
• To add the parcels located within the Central Petaluma Specific Plan area to the
CBD Project Area.that are not currently in either of the City's existing;redevelopment
project areas. The future development of these areas in compliance with the vision
ofthe City General Plan and the Central Petaluma Specific Plan will work in concert
with the continuing effort to preserve and enhance the existing downtown physical,
business and natural environments.
• To be able to enter into debt for another ten years, in order to continue existing
efforts and undertake new activities. The PCDC is proposing to continue downtown
parking improvements and the seismic retrofit partial assistance funding program,
undertake downtown pedestrian, street and utility improvements, and help •.
implement the Central Petaluma Specific Plan once adopted.
With the amendment of the CBD,thatime limit for issuing debt could be extended an
additional 10 years, until 2011; for the existing Project Area and 20 years from the
date of the.Amendment for the Added Area.
• To include the power of eminent domain over non-residential properties. The
PCDC did not originally include the power of eminent domain in the CBD as
authorized by the California Redevelopment Law. The use of eminent domain may
be needed in order to undertake public improvements or assist future projects in
acquiring necessary right-of-way or easements.
7. What is involved in the plan: amendment process?
It is more cost:and lime effective to include the"three amendment components as part of
a single 'major' plan amendment rather than as stand-alone projects. The formal
process for amending a redevelopment plan typically requires 8 to 12 months: Five
critical documents must be prepared for a major amendment:
• Amended Preliminary Plan
• Preliminary Report
• Environmental Impact Report ("EIR")
• . Amended Redevelopment-Plan
• Report,to the Petaluma Community Development Commission (City Council).

CBD Plan Amendment Q&As

di 8. What,are the benefits of the plan.amendment?
The proposed CBD Plan Amendment will help implement the goals and policies of
Petaluma's General Plan and Central Petaluma •Specific Plan by assisting with
improvements that could include:
• Improvement to inadequate and deteriorated public infrastructure and facilities
including curbs, gutters, paving, sidewalks, drainage, lighting and landscaping;
elimination of blighting influences and correction of environmental deficiencies in the
Project Area, in particular building deterioration, underutilized commercial land,
inefficient parcelization patterns.
• Improving pedestrian,.,bicycle,,and vehicular circulation in the Project Area.
• Expand, improve, and/or preserve the communitys affordable supply of housing for
low and moderate income persons.
Redevelopment projects not only improve conditions within the project area but also
help stimulate economic growth'in surrounding areas.
9. Why does the PCDC. need the power of'eniinent,domain?
The PCDC has no immediate plans to acquire non-residential property for
redevelopment. However, as the Redevelopment Plan is implemented over time, some
private property may need to be acquired to facilitate a.public improvement or assemble
suitable sites for a particular development. The Agency will make every effort to
purchase property from a property owner without using eminent domain and will notify
owners well in advance before making a purchase offer. The Agency must pay fair
market value for property it acquires and provide relocation assistance to businesses
displaced due to its actions:; If the use of eminent domain is found to be necessary, the
PCDC will hold a public hearing prior any action. The CBD plan amendment will not
allow eminent domain to be used to .acquire properties with 'existing residential land
uses.
10. What does the PCDC plan to do in the proposed CBD added
area?
Redevelopment funds could be used to alleviate: blighting conditions and expand or
improve existing public facilities in the expanded Project Area Redevelopment funds
should be primarily spent on capital projects to revitalize the Project Area.
11. How do .Redevelopment Agencies secure fund's, and what is tax
'increment?
California Community Redevelopment Law enables a redevelopment agency to utilize a
funding mechanism called tax increment financing. When a City Council .adopts a
redevelopment plan, the total assessed value of property within the project area is
established (called the frozen base). For the duration of the redevelopment plan, up to
a45 years, most of the property tax revenues generated from increases in the assessed
value above the frozen base, called tax increment revenue, will be allocated to the
City of Petaluma, California
CBD,Plan.Amendment Q&As

•
Redevelopment Agency. Effective investment of mtax increment funds results in higher is
property values in a project area, generating higher tax increment revenues in the
future.
12. Will property taxes be raised?
Property tax levies remain the same. Redevelopment does not increase property taxes"
nor add any new tek obligations to property owners in a project area.
13. How will property taxes be distributed once a rede velopment
plan is adopted?
Each taxing entity in 'a project area, such as the County, schools or,a:special district,
continues to receive its proportionate share;of'property taxes generated from the frozen
base. In addition, each entity receives a portion of the tax increment generated from
increases in assessed value over the frozen base. These additional payments are
called pass-throughs and are designed •to alleviate the financial burden on affected
taxing entities. A State mandated formula determines how pass-throughs are
calculated.
14. How do members of the community participate in the
redevelopment process?
Redevelopment Law' requires community participation during the redevelopment plan
amendment process. All. City Council, Agency Board "and Planning Commission
meetings on redevelopment are open to the public and publicly noticed. A
redevelopment plan may only be amended after all property owners and residents
within the project area have been given written notice of the-public hearing to amend the
" redevelopment plan and after the notice has been published in a newspaper ofigeneral
circulation in the community. In addition, the PCDC will hold informational meetings
similar to the one at 6;00 p.m. on September 6th at the Cajun Moon Restaurant,205
Kentucky St., Petaluma_
