Subject: Successor Agency to the San José Redevelopment Agency Approval of the July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024 Administrative Budget and Annual Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule 2023 -2024
BACKGROUND
Under the legislation dissolving redevelopment agencies, a successor agency is required to submit a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) and Administrative Budget every fiscal year to the Countywide Oversight Board and the California Department of Finance (DOF) for their approval.
The following documents related to the ROPS 23-24 are provided in support of this recommendation:
• Attachment 1: Successor Agency Administrative Budget 2023-24 ROPS • Attachment 2: Successor Agency Personnel Costs for Administrative Budget 2023-24 ROPS
• Attachment 3: Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS 23-24) – Summary (approved by Countywide Oversight Board and DOF)
• Attachment 4: Notice of No Objection Letter to ROPS
• Attachment 5: DOF Final Determination Letter ROPS 23-24
ROPS 23-24 was approved by the Countywide Oversight Board on January 27, 2023 and submitted to the DOF on January 31, 2023, prior to the February 1 submission deadline. The DOF completed its review and released its final determination of enforceable obligations listed on the ROPS 23-24 and approval of Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund funding on March 24, 2023.
ANALYSIS
A. Successor Agency Administrative Budget for July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024
The Redevelopment Dissolution Law requires the Successor Agency prepare an Administrative Budget for the County Oversight Board approval.
The Successor Agency Administrative Budget 2023-24 ROPS (Attachment 1) summarizes provisions for professional services and City personnel costs. Professional services for fiscal year (FY) 2023-24 include banking, external audit, and foreclosures services. Each budget line item references the payee name, description of work, and budgetary comparison between FY 2022-23 and FY 2023-24. The Successor Agency Administrative Budget for FY 2023-24 totals $359,401, reflecting an increase of $78,800 or 28.0% from the approved Administrative Budget for FY 2022-23.
Personnel costs for the Administrative Budget 2023-24 ROPS (Attachment 2) show additional detail, including full-time equivalents (FTEs) and associated salary (including retirement and fringe benefits) costs the City allocates to support the Successor Agency in FY 2023-24. City

Subject: Successor Agency to the San José Redevelopment Agency Approval of the July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024 Administrative Budget and Annual Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule 2023 -2024
staff assignments include the City Attorney’s Office (0.15 FTE), the Office of Economic Development and Cultural Affairs (0.05 FTE), and Finance Department (0.79 FTE).
The County Oversight Board, at its September 2022 meeting, directed the Successor Agency to transfer 22 Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions Agreements to the City. The City Attorney’s Office will be supporting the City’s effort during FY 2023-24 in these assignments. Additionally, the City Attorney’s Office will support the foreclosure efforts on loans in default and non- performing Disposition and Development Agreements.
The Director of the Office of Economic Development and Cultural Affairs will assist with the transfers of the 22 outstanding Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions Agreements from the Successor Agency to the City. Additionally, the Director will lead the efforts to explore options to compel performance under the Fulton Street Ventures Disposition and Development Agreement or seek other alternatives to commence development of the property located on the north side of East St. James Street between North First Street and Second Street.
There is an increase of 25%, or $52,428, in personnel costs from FY 2022-23.
The funding source for FY 2023-24 Successor Agency Administrative Budget is Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund, a property tax increment revenue fund.
B. ROPS 23-24
Attachment 3 - Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS 23-24) – Summary, shows a budget of $195,734,366 to pay for enforceable obligations from July 2023 to June 2024. The funding sources include:
• A reserve amount from the previous ROPS 22-23 in the amount of $51,017,500; • Other revenue funds in the amount of $1,528,468; and
• Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund in the amount of $143,188,398
Pursuant to California Health and Safety Code section 34186 (c), successor agencies are required to report differences between actual payments and past estimated obligations (prior period adjustments) for the period of July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021 (ROPS 20-21). The prior period adjustments for ROPS 20-21 resulted an excess Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund distribution of $146,936, which will be netted against authorized Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund in ROPS 23-24.
C. Review of ROPS by County Auditor-Controller
The County of Santa Clara Auditor-Controller is authorized, but not required, to review the ROPS and transmit objections to any items not demonstrated to be enforceable obligations to the Successor Agency, Countywide Oversight Board, or DOF. On January 13, 2023, the County of

Subject: Successor Agency to the San José Redevelopment Agency Approval of the July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024 Administrative Budget and Annual Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule 2023 -2024
Santa Clara Controller-Treasurer sent a Notice of No Objection to ROPS letter (Attachment 4) via email.
D. Review of ROPS by DOF
The DOF completed its review of ROPS 23-24 on March 24, 2023. Based on a sample of line items reviewed and application of the law, DOF approved all of the items listed on the ROPS 23- 24 (Attachment 5 - DOF Final Determination Letter ROPS 23-24).
EVALUATION AND FOLLOW-UP
The California Health and Safety Code section 34177 (o) (1) (E) allows the Successor Agency to amend its ROPS once prior to October 1 during the reporting period.
COST SUMMARY/IMPLICATIONS
The ROPS 23-24 reflects obligations due during the reporting period of July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024. The Successor Agency has sufficient funds to pay for all enforceable obligations, including administrative costs previously funded by the City.

Julia H. Cooper, Chief Financial Officer
City of San Jose
200 East Santa Clara Street, 13th Floor
San Jose, CA 95113
2023-24 Annual Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule
Pursuant to Health and Safety Code (HSC) section 34177 (o) (1), the City of San Jose Successor Agency (Agency) submitted an annual Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule for the period July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024 (ROPS 23-24) to the California Department of Finance (Finance) on February 1, 2023. Finance has completed its review of the ROPS 23-24.
Based on a sample of line items reviewed and application of the law, Finance approves all of the items listed on the ROPS 23-24 at this time.
Pursuant to HSC section 34186, successor agencies are required to report differences between actual payments and past estimated obligations (prior period adjustments) for the July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021 (ROPS 20-21) period. The ROPS 20-21 prior period adjustment (PPA) will offset the ROPS 23-24 Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) distribution. The amount of RPTTF authorized includes the PPA resulting from the County Auditor-Controller’s review of the PPA form submitted by the Agency.
The Agency’s maximum approved RPTTF distribution for the reporting period is $143,041,462, as summarized in the Approved RPTTF Distribution table (see Attachment).
RPTTF distributions occur biannually, one distribution for the July 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 period (ROPS A period), and one distribution for the January 1, 2024 through June 30, 2024 period (ROPS B period), based on Finance's approved amounts.
Since this determination is for the entire ROPS 23-24 period, the Agency is authorized to receive up to the maximum approved RPTTF through the combined ROPS A and B period distributions.
This is our final determination regarding the obligations listed on the ROPS 23-24. This determination only applies to items when funding was requested for the 12-month period. If a determination by Finance in a previous ROPS is currently the subject of litigation, the item will continue to reflect the determination until the matter is resolved.

The ROPS 23-24 form submitted by the Agency and this determination letter will be posted on our website:
http://dof.ca.gov/Programs/Redevelopment/ROPS/
This determination is effective for the ROPS 23-24 period only and should not be conclusively relied upon for future ROPS periods. All items listed on a future ROPS are subject to Finance's review and may be adjusted even if not adjusted on this ROPS or a preceding ROPS. The only exception is for items that have received a Final and Conclusive determination from Finance pursuant to HSC section 34177.5 (i). Finance’s review of Final and Conclusive items is limited to confirming the scheduled payments as required by the obligation.
The amount available from the RPTTF is the same as the amount of property tax increment available prior to the enactment of the redevelopment dissolution law.
Therefore, as a practical matter, the ability to fund the items on the ROPS with property tax increment is limited to the amount of funding available to the Agency in the RPTTF.
Please direct inquiries to Joshua Mortimer, Supervisor, or Mathew Rios, Staff, at (916)

Sincerely,
JENNIFER WHITAKER
