CITY OF RIVERSIDE CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM Honorable Mayor & City Council Date: Ju,c 1, ]999 Item No.: 4 Subject: Consideration of the Arlington Redevelopment Project Area Committee's Representative Character Following Membership Change Background On October 20, 1998, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 19374, which called for the formation of a project area committee (PAC) for the Arlington Redevelopment Project Amendment No. 3. As required by Section 33385 of the Community Redevelopment Law (Health & Safety Code), the Arlington PAC shall include business owners, residential owner-occupants, residential tenants, and members of existing community organizations within the Amended Arlington Project Area. Recently a vacancy for the residential tenant category occurred on the PAC. Pursuant to the PAC's By-Laws, a vacancy can be filled by the election of the remaining PAC members, providing the new member meets the qualifications for the membership. Additionally, the By-Laws require that any change in PAC membership shall be submitted to the City Council for consideration of the PAC's representative character. Current Issue To fill the vacancy for the residential tenant category, the PAC members elected Judy Teunissen during the April 15, 1999, meeting. Ms. Teunissen completed the Project Area Committee Membership Application and meets the qualifications for PAC membership. This action fills one of two residential tenant positions on the PAC; the PAC continues to seek additional membership to fill the remaining vacancies under this and the business category. Attached is a current roster of the PAC membership by the various categories. All of the PAC members either reside in or represent businesses or community organizations within the amended project area. Pursuant to the By-Laws and Resolution No. 19374, the PAC is required to submit the membership to City Council for consideration following each change in membership of the PAC. Fiscal Impact None Alternatives Do not find the membership of the Arlington PAC as representative in character following the change of membership. Recommendation That the City Council find that the membership of the Arlington Project Area Committee is representative in character following the change of membership resulting from the filled vacancy in the residential tenant category.
