Pursuant to current law, the Oversight Board will continue to perform these functions through June 30, 2018, 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 and reflect the winding down activities and statutory changes in the ROPS cycle, the Board has adopted several changes to the regularly meeting schedule. Presently, the Oversight Board meets regularly on the second Wednesday of January and second Wednesday of June at 3:45 pm at the Lake Elsinore Cultural Center Cultural Center. 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 changed the ROPS schedule for all successor agencies. Commencing January 2016, Successor Agencies are required to prepare and submit ROPS annually on February 1. In addition, amendments to the ROPS are permitted one time each year and must be submitted by October 1. To meet these deadlines, it will be necessary for the Oversight Board to meet in September 2017 and in January 2018. Date and Time For Meetings January 23, 2017 Page 2 of 2 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 and, although staff will strive to present these items at the Oversight Board’s regularly scheduled January or September meeting, special meetings may be required from time to time. Given the 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 to select a regularly scheduled meeting date for the last week of September 2017 and the last week of January 2018. The Oversight Board also expressed a preference to meeting in City Hall, Conference Room A instead of the Lake Elsinore Cultural Center. Once changes to the dates and/or times are selected, the Oversight Board should adopt the attached Resolution confirming the changes. Exhibit A - Resolution
