Redevelopment Dissolution

Law History

AB X1 26, which was signed by the Governor of California on June, 29, 2011, added Parts 1.8 and 1.85 to the Community Redevelopment Law. Part 1.8 did the following:

• Immediately suspended most redevelopment agency activities
• Prohibited redevelopment agencies from incurring indebtedness or entering into or modifying contracts

Pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 34177, successor agencies are required to continue to make payments due for enforceable obligations of the former redevelopment agencies.

Effective July 1, 2018, all 71 RDAs in Los Angeles County were consolidated into one of five Oversight Boards organized by Supervisorial District. Each Consolidated Oversight Board shall have jurisdiction over each Successor Agency located within its borders.

Recognized Obligation Payment Schedules (ROPS)

The Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) identifies these obligations, the anticipated timing and amount of funds required to meet these obligations, and the funding sources for each obligation.

The ROPS will be used by the Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller to allocate money from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF), in order for the Successor Agency to make payments on enforceable obligations. Ultimate approval of the ROPS is granted once it is approved by the Oversight Board and reviewed by the California Department of Finance (DOF).

New dissolution law which took effect, September 22, 2015, changed the requirement for submission of the ROPS (SB 107). It is now an annually required document (vs. bi-annual).
