LEGAL NOTICE
SPECIAL JOINT PUBLIC HEARING
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the San Rafael City Council (the "City Council") and
the San Rafael Redevelopment Agency (the "Agency") will hold a Special joint public hearing
on Monday, July 15, 2002 at 7:30 p.m. in the City Council Chambers located at 1400 Fifth
Avenue, San Rafael, California. The hearing may be continued from time to time until
completed. Any person desiring the opportunity to be heard will be afforded an opportunity to
do so.
The purpose of the hearing is to consider certain amendments described below to the
Redevelopment Plan for the Central San Rafael Redevelopment Project, adopted by City Council
Ordinance No. 1079 on November 20, 1972, as amended in 1989, 1994, 1998 and earlier this
year (the "Plan"). The currently proposed amendments to the Plan are incorporated in a
proposed Third Amended and Restated Central San Rafael Redevelopment Plan (the "Amended
Plan").
The purpose of the proposed Amended Plan is to increase the amount of tax increment
that the Agency is allocated from the Central San Rafael Redevelopment Project Area and to
extend the deadline for commencement of eminent domain proceedings by about one year.
The proposed Amended Plan will not change any of the other financial provisions of the
Plan (e.g. limits on time to conduct plan activities or to collect tax increment, or limits on the
amount of outstanding bonded indebtedness), or the proposed activities of the Agency to
promote redevelopment of the Project Area.
The Project Area is situated in the County of Marin, State of California, and is more
particularly described in Exhibit A to the Ordinance 1079, adopted November 20, 1972, recorded
in the Offices of the County Recorder of Marin County on December 14, 1972. The boundaries
of the Project Area will not be changed as a result of the Amended Plan.
It is the intent of the City and the Agency to adopt a Negative Declaration regarding the
environmental impacts of the proposed Amended Plan. A copy of this proposed Negative
Declaration is available for review at the San Rafael Redevelopment Agency.
Any and all persons having any comments on or objections to the proposed Amended
Plan, or the regularity of any prior proceeding, or who wish to speak on any issue raised by the
Amended Plan or the environmental documentation as it relates to the Amended Plan may appear
at the hearing and show cause why the proposed Amended Plan should not be adopted. In
addition at any time not later than the time set forth for the hearing on the Amended Plan, any
person may file in writing with the City Clerk of the City of San Rafael a statement of objections
to the proposed Amended Plan.
In accordance with the California Community Redevelopment Law, the Agency has
prepared a Report on the Amended Plan. Furthermore, the Amended Plan, Report on the
141 \15\158095.1
Amended Plan, and the related environmental documentation are available for inspection in the
offices of the San Rafael Redevelopment Agency, located at 1313 Fifth Avenue, San Rafael,
California.
This Notice is published pursuant to the order of the City Council of the City of San
Rafael and the San Rafael Redevelopment Agency.
