Background The Oversight Board to the Successor Agency of the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Lake Elsinore is charged with specific oversight, approval and monitoring activities relating to the winding down of the former Redevelopment Agency's obligations. With the passage of SB 107, the Oversight Board will continue to perform these functions through 2017, when the oversight boards within each county will be consolidated into one county -wide Oversight Board. Pursuant to the meeting requirements of the Ralph M. Brown Act, the Oversight Board adopted Resolution No. OB- 2012 -001 originally establishing its regular date, time and location for meetings as 3:30 pm on the second and fourth Tuesdays of every month at the Lake Elsinore Cultural Center. In order to better accommodate Oversight Board Member schedules, the Board adopted Resolution No. OB- 2013 -001 changing the regular meeting time to 3:45 pm. Regular meeting dates remained unchanged as the second and fourth Tuesday of every month. By Resolution No. OB- 2014 -003 adopted on February 25, 2014, the Oversight Board changed its regular meetings to a quarterly schedule as follows: 1) fourth Tuesday of every February; 2) second Tuesday of every June; 3) fourth Tuesday of every September; 4) second Tuesday of every December. Resolution Changing the Date and Time for Meetings December 15, 2015 Page 2 of 2 The quarterly schedule was coordinated with the Successor Agency's ROPS cycle Discussion Prior to SB 107, ROPS were due twice each year to the State Department of Finance (DOF) on the first of March and October. SB 107 changes the ROPS schedule for all successor agencies. Commencing January 2016, Successor Agencies are required to prepare and submit ROPS annually on February 1. To meet this deadline, it will be necessary for the Oversight Board to meet in January 2016. In addition to the review and approval of ROPS, the Oversight Board will be required to approve any dispositions of real property and any new or amended Successor Agency obligations /contracts. The timing of these transactions is unknown, but staff anticipates that quarterly meetings will be sufficient. The Oversight Board may instead want to establish a bi- annual schedule such as the 4th Tuesday of every January and July. As has been often the case, if Oversight Board action is required prior to the next regularly scheduled meeting date, a special meeting can be called. Given the new ROPS schedule and recognizing the changes in the Board's membership since it was first formed, staff recommends the Oversight Board members discuss its meeting schedule. If changes to the dates and /or times are desired, the Oversight Board should adopt the attached Resolution confirming the changes.
