The Daily Journal/Samantha Weigel, 9/26/14. "City to settle case over redevelopment agency: Belmont's lawsuit reduces payment to state from $1.33 million to $256,000.
A redevelopment agency existed here too. What did Pacifica payback to the State, while not developing anything? |
After years of negotiations and a lawsuit against the state, the city
of Belmont agreed to settle its dispute on how much it owed for the 2012
dissolution of its redevelopment agency that helped fund the Highway
101 pedestrian overpass, street improvements, the acquisition of its
City Hall site and other projects.
The city was able to reduce that to $1.33 million through a
statutory process and through its lawsuit ultimately will turn over
$256,000, Rennie said. The struggle is the funds the state is demanding
had already been spent on contractors, supplies, employee compensation
and expenses related to redevelopment projects; meaning, the city will
have to reach into its general fund to pay the state back, Rennie said. The city anticipates making the $256,000 payment Monday, Rennie said. Read article.

I wonder if we've rec'd a refund for the $308,000 the city accidentally sent to the state in the redevelopment close out? We're not that lucky. Although, we should thank our lucky stars council didn't give Ritzma the CM job she wanted. Must have been luck.
How's that hiring of an asst cm and accounting staff going? Savvy, smart candidates eager to jump into this mess for the low-end of the salary scale?
The assistant city manager the city has the offer out to changed their mind. Back to square one.
The $398,000 will never be refunded. The 4 million will turn into 10 million.
609 Musta been a smart one. It's election season, when utterly baseless optimism sweeps over Pacifica. Let's tap into it...the city found a smart one. It's got to be the Tinfow effect. If she just didn't have to introduce them to the rest of the, uh, family. And then there's those skeletons you mentioned.
