Statute overview

About this statute

This section defines key terms used in the CalSavers retirement savings title. This section creates the CalSavers Retirement Savings Board and sets rules for how the board, program administrator, and staff must operate. This section creates the CalSavers Retirement Savings Trust, assigns the board to administer it, requires the board to split trust money into a program fund and an administrative fund, and gives the Treasurer and the board investment-related powers. It also caps administrative fund spending at 1% of the total program fund after six years from implementation and exempts certain securities from specified Corporations Code sections. The CalSavers Retirement Savings Program must include one or more payroll deduction IRA arrangements, as determined by the board. The board has broad authority over the trust, including contracts, investments, staff, insurance, cooperation, and rulemaking.

It is the intent of the Legislature that, after January 1, 1999, each addition or amendment to a statute that exempts any information contained in a public record from disclosure pursuant to Section 7927.705 shall be listed and described in Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 7930.100) pursuant to a bill authorized by a standing committee of the Legislature to be introduced during the first year of each session of the Legislature.

General [81000 - 81015] ( Chapter 1 added June 4, 1974, by initiative Proposition 9. ) ## 81001. The people find and declare as follows: (a) State and local government should serve the needs and respond to the wishes of all citizens equally, without regard to their wealth; (b) Public officials, whether elected or appointed, should perform their duties in an impartial manner, free from bias caused by their own financial interests or the financial interests of persons who have supported them; (c) Costs of conducting election campaigns have increased greatly in recent years, and candidates have been forced to finance their campaigns by seeking large contributions from lobbyists and organizations who thereby gain disproportionate influence over governmental decisions; (d) The influence of large campaign contributors is increased because existing laws for disclosure of campaign receipts and expenditures have proved to be inadequate; (e) Lobbyists often make their contributions to incumbents who cannot be effectively challenged because of election laws and abusive practices which give the incumbent an unfair advantage; (f) The wealthy individuals and organizations which make large campaign contributions frequently extend their influence by employing lobbyists and spending large amounts to influence legislative and administrative actions; (g) The influence of large campaign contributors in ballot measure elections is increased because the state voter information guide mailed to the voters by the state is difficult to read and almost impossible for a layperson to understand; and (h) Previous laws regulating political practices have suffered from inadequate enforcement by state and local authorities.

Liability of Public Entities [815 - 818.9] ( Article 2 added by Stats. 1963, Ch. 1681. ) ## 815.3. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this part, unless the elected official and the public entity are named as codefendants in the same action, a public entity is not liable to a plaintiff under this part for any act or omission of an elected official employed by or otherwise representing that public entity, which act or omission constitutes an intentional tort, including, but not limited to, harassment, sexual battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. For purposes of this section, harassment in violation of state or federal law constitutes an intentional tort, to the extent permitted by federal law. This section shall not apply to defamation. (b) If the elected official is held liable for an intentional tort other than defamation in such an action, the trier of fact in reaching the verdict shall determine if the act or omission constituting the intentional tort arose from and was directly related to the elected official’s performance of his or her official duties. If the trier of fact determines that the act or omission arose from and was directly related to the elected official’s performance of his or her official duties, the public entity shall be liable for the judgment as provided by law. For the purpose of this subdivision, employee managerial functions shall be deemed to arise from, and to directly relate to, the elected official’s official duties. However, acts or omissions constituting sexual harassment shall not be deemed to arise from, and to directly relate to, the elected official’s official duties. (c) If the trier of fact determines that the elected official’s act or omission did not arise from and was not directly related to the elected official’s performance of his or her official duties, upon a final judgment, including any appeal, the plaintiff shall first seek recovery of the judgment against the assets of the elected official. If the court determines that the elected official’s assets are insufficient to satisfy the total judgment, including plaintiff’s costs as provided by law, the court shall determine the amount of the deficiency and the plaintiff may seek to collect that remainder of the judgment from the public entity. The public entity may pay that deficiency if the public entity is otherwise authorized by law to pay that judgment. (d) To the extent the public entity pays any portion of the judgment against the elected official pursuant to subdivision (c) or has expended defense costs in an action in which the trier of fact determines the elected official’s action did not arise from and did not directly relate to his or her performance of official duties, the public entity shall pursue all available creditor’s remedies against the elected official in indemnification, including garnishment, until the elected official has fully reimbursed the public entity. (e) If the public entity elects to appeal the judgment in an action brought pursuant to this section, the entity shall continue to provide a defense for the official until the case is finally adjudicated, as provided by law. (f) It is the intent of the Legislature that elected officials assume full fiscal responsibility for their conduct which constitutes an intentional tort not directly related to their official duties committed for which the public entity they represent may also be liable, while maintaining fair compensation for those persons injured by such conduct. (g) This section shall not apply to a criminal or civil enforcement action brought on behalf of the state by an elected district attorney, city attorney, or Attorney General. (h) If any provision of this section or the application thereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid, that invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of the section which can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this section are severable.

The Legislature hereby finds and declares all of the following: (a) Sacramento’s State Capitol and Capitol Park provide the City of Sacramento with a unique cultural and open-space resource that is a major attraction for thousands of visitors each year. (b) Over the past 10 years, the skyline of downtown Sacramento has changed dramatically, signifying the city’s diversity as a center of commerce and government. As a result of this growth, the State Capitol no longer has the most prominent position on the skyline. (c) In the last three years, 10 major project office buildings have been constructed or approved within the downtown’s C-3 zone and approximately 14 additional buildings have been proposed. This growth has prompted increased community concern about preservation of the visual prominence of the State Capitol. (d) Since June of 1990, state officials have been working with the city toward developing a plan that would guide future development downtown in a way that would preserve and enhance the visual prominence of the State Capitol and the character and scale of Capitol Park.

General Planning [8160 - 8169.7] ( Article 1 added by Stats. 1970, Ch. 172. ) ## 8169. (a) The director may lease the real property owned by the state within the core area, and not under the jurisdiction of any other state agency, for purposes consistent with the Capitol Area Plan and the management thereof, for the term and upon terms and conditions that the director may deem appropriate. A lease shall provide that any property subsequently leased by a joint powers authority for which a lease or rental for a period of five years or more is contemplated, shall be advertised and awarded utilizing for the purpose the same procedure followed by the director for other state properties. The director’s authority to lease real property under this section shall include, but not be limited to, the authority to lease portions of buildings and facilities occupied or to be occupied in part by state agencies, to private parties, and other public agencies for office, residential, parking, and commercial uses consistent with the Capitol Area Plan. (b) The director may sell real property that is owned by the state within the Capitol Area Plan area that is not under the jurisdiction of any other state agency and that is designated for residential and commercial purposes in the 1997 update of the plan. If the director sells property under this section, that property shall be sold at its fair market value to the joint powers authority created pursuant to Section 8169.4 for resale and use in the development of residential and commercial properties consistent with the Capitol Area Plan. In addition, any property sold under this section shall not diminish the number of existing dwelling units or subsequently developed units that are required to be made available to low-income households pursuant to Section 8193. For the purposes of Section 8193, an existing residential dwelling unit or a subsequently developed unit located on land sold pursuant to this section shall continue to be included in the determination of the total number of dwelling units located on property leased by the joint powers authority created pursuant to Section 8169.4. The director may not sell any existing residential properties pursuant to this subdivision that are under the management of the joint powers authority created pursuant to Section 8169.4 unless that sale is part of an overall development plan that will lead to a net increase in residential units on the affected site or sites. In addition, the director may not sell any existing residential properties pursuant to this subdivision that are under the management of the joint powers authority created pursuant to Section 8169.4 unless a deed restriction is recorded against the properties that contains an express condition and covenant that the real property conveyed shall be used only for residential purposes for a period of at least 45 years. “Residential purposes” means the same or substantially similar multifamily, single-family, or condominium use, or a mixed use, with the same or greater number of residential units on the affected site. The terms of the restriction are for the benefit of the public at large and for the benefit of all parcels of land located within the boundaries of the Capitol Area Plan. The residential use required by this subdivision shall bind all successive owners of the property for a period of 45 years from the date the property is conveyed by the joint powers authority. (c) With respect to residential leases, the director’s authority included in this section shall not extend beyond the Capitol area. The director shall assure that tenants residing within the Capitol area are not involuntarily displaced as a result of leases executed after January 1, 1978. The director’s authority shall also include the authority to enter into long-term leases not to exceed 60 years and to pledge, subordinate, hypothecate, or to permit the assignment of these leases in connection with financing to be obtained by any lessee or sublessee. (d) The director may not execute a sales agreement or lease agreement for a term lease of more than five years between the state and another entity, enter into a joint powers agreement, or issue revenue bonds or notes of evidences of indebtedness offered by the joint powers authority, if the agreement concerns state-owned property in the County of Sacramento or the County of Yolo, unless not less than 30 days prior to its execution he or she notifies and provides an economic analysis of the proposed sale to the Members of the Legislature who represent the Capitol area and the chairman of the committee in each house of the Legislature which considers appropriations, the chairman of the appropriate policy committee in each house, and the Chairman of the Joint Legislative Budget Committee, or his or her designee, in writing of his or her intention to execute such an agreement. The chairman of the committee or his or her designee may determine a lesser notification period prior to execution. A copy of the notice shall be provided to any person who requests the director in writing for the notice. (e) The Legislature hereby finds that it will be of broad public benefit to stimulate development of residential and commercial components of the Capitol Area Plan. Therefore, the director may sell property to the joint powers authority created pursuant to Section 8169.4 at a price that is determined to be its fair market value and terms that have been determined to be appropriate to stimulate timely development to meet the goals set forth by the Legislature in the 1997 update of the Capitol Area Plan. The Capitol Area Development Authority may request these sales after providing the director with appropriate economic analysis in support of the value at which property is to be conveyed. The director may approve the sale of the property if he or she concurs with the economic analysis. (f) The Legislature hereby finds that it will be of broad public benefit to lease some residential units in the Capitol area to persons and families of low or moderate income, as defined by Section 50093 of the Health and Safety Code, for less than prevailing market rental rates. Therefore, the director may rent or provide for the rental of residential facilities to persons and families of low or moderate income for less than market rental rates and enter into long-term ground leases at nominal or below market rental rates when the director deems it will benefit these persons and families. (g) All leases of state-owned property in the core area to any private person for other than parking shall be subject to possessory interest taxes in accordance with Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 101) of Part 1 of Division 1 of the Revenue and Taxation Code. (h) The net proceeds of any moneys received from the disposition of any state parcels sold pursuant to subdivision (b) shall be deposited into the General Fund. The department shall be reimbursed for any cost or expense incurred in the disposition of any parcels. (Amended by Stats. 1997, Ch. 262, Sec. 1. Effective August 11, 1997.)

General Planning [8160 - 8169.7] ( Article 1 added by Stats. 1970, Ch. 172. ) ## 8169.5. (a) In furtherance of the Capitol Area Plan, the objectives of Resolution Chapter 131 of the Statutes of 1991, and the legislative findings and declarations contained in Chapter 193 of the Statutes of 1996, relative to the findings by the Urban Land Institute, the director may purchase, exchange, or otherwise acquire real property and construct facilities, including any improvements, betterments, and related facilities, within the jurisdiction of the Capitol Area Plan in the City of Sacramento pursuant to this section. The total authorized scope of the project shall consist of up to approximately 1,470,200 gross square feet of office space and approximately 742,625 gross square feet of parking structures for use by the State Department of Education, the State Department of Health Care Services, the State Department of Public Health, and the Department of General Services as anchor tenants on blocks 171, 172, 173, 174, and 225, along with related additional parking on block 224, within the Capitol area. The acquisition and construction authorized pursuant to this section may not cause the displacement of any state or legislative employee parking spaces in the blocks specified in this subdivision unless the Department of General Services makes available existing state-owned parking spaces, acquires parking spaces, or constructs replacement parking that results in the affected employees’ parking spaces being located at a reasonable distance from their place of employment. (b) Subject to paragraphs (2) and (3) of subdivision (c), the department may contract for the lease, lease-purchase, lease with an option to purchase, acquisition, design, design-build, construction, construction management, and other services related to the design and construction of the office and parking facilities authorized to be acquired pursuant to subdivision (a). (c) (1) The State Public Works Board may issue revenue bonds, negotiable notes, or negotiable bond anticipation notes pursuant to Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 15830) of Part 10b of Division 3 to finance all costs associated with acquisition, design, and construction of office and parking facilities for the purposes of this section. The State Public Works Board and the department may borrow funds for project costs from the Pooled Money Investment Account pursuant to Sections 16312 and 16313. In the event the bonds authorized by the project are not sold, the State Department of Education, the State Department of Health Care Services, the State Department of Public Health, and the Department of General Services, as determined by the Department of Finance, shall commit a sufficient amount of their support appropriations to repay any loans made for the project from the Pooled Money Investment Account. It is the intent of the Legislature that this commitment shall be included in future Budget Acts until all outstanding loans from the Pooled Money Investment Account are repaid either through the proceeds from the sale of bonds or from an appropriation. (2) (A) If the department proposes to acquire the facilities on a design-build basis, prior to the department entering into an agreement pursuant to subdivision (b) to design and build the facilities on blocks 171, 172, 173, 174, and 225, as specified in subdivision (a), the department shall submit to the Legislature a copy of all documents that shall be the basis upon which bids will be solicited and awarded to design and build the facilities. The documents shall include the following: (i) The request for qualifications. (ii) Site development guidelines. (iii) Architectural and all system design requirements for the facilities. (iv) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the recommended specific criteria and process by which the contractor shall be selected. (v) The performance criteria and standards for the architecture and all components and systems of the facilities. (B) The information in the documents shall be provided in at least as much detail as was prepared for the San Francisco Civic Center Complex project and shall cover the quality of materials, equipment, and workmanship to be used in the facilities. These documents shall also include a detailed and specific space program for the facilities that identifies the specific spatial needs of the state agencies. (C) If the department proposes to contract for construction separate from design, the department shall, prior to commencing work on working drawings for the facilities on blocks 171, 172, 173, 174, and 225, submit to the Legislature a copy of the preliminary plans for the facilities and a detailed and specific space program for the facilities that identifies the specific spatial needs of the state agencies. (E) Regardless of how the department proposes to acquire the facilities, the department also shall submit all of the following information, which may be included in the bid documents: (i) A final estimated cost for design, construction, and other costs. (ii) How the department would manage the contracts entered into for this project to ensure compliance with contract requirements and to ensure that the state receives the highest level of quality workmanship and materials for the funds spent on the project. (3) The department shall submit to the Legislature the information required to be submitted pursuant to paragraphs (2) and (6) on or before December 1, 1998. Except for those contracts and agreements necessary to prepare the information required by paragraphs (2) and (6), the department shall not solicit bids to enter into any agreement to design and build or otherwise acquire the facilities or commence work on working drawings on block 171, 172, 173, 174, or 225 sooner than the later of April 1, 1999, or 120 days after the department submits to the Legislature the information required to be submitted pursuant to paragraphs (2) and (6). The Legislative Analyst shall evaluate the information submitted to the Legislature and shall prepare a report to the Joint Committee on Rules within 60 days of receiving the documents submitted to the Legislature. It is the intent of the Legislature that the Joint Committee on Rules meet prior to the date the department is authorized to solicit bids to design and build or otherwise acquire the facilities or commence work on working drawings for the purposes of discussing the report from the Legislative Analyst and adopting a report with any recommendations to the department on changes to the site design criteria, performance criteria, and specifications and specific criteria for determining the winning bidder. If the Joint Committee on Rules adopts a report prior to the date the department is authorized to solicit bids to design and build or otherwise acquire the facilities or commence work on working drawings, the department may solicit the bids or commence the work when the report is adopted by the Joint Committee on Rules. The Senate Committee on Rules and the Speaker of the Assembly may designate members of their respective houses to monitor the progress of the preparation of the documents to be submitted pursuant to paragraph (2). The department shall prepare periodic progress reports and meet with the designated members or their representatives, as necessary, while preparing the documents. (4) The amount of revenue bonds, negotiable notes, or negotiable bond anticipation notes to be sold may equal, but shall not exceed, the cost of planning, preliminary plans, working drawings, construction, construction management and supervision, other costs relating to the design and construction of the facilities, and any additional sums necessary to pay interim and permanent financing costs. The additional amount may include interest and a reasonable required reserve fund. (5) Authorized costs of the facilities for preliminary plans, working drawings, construction, and other costs shall not exceed three hundred ninety-two million dollars ($392,000,000). Notwithstanding Section 13332.11, the State Public Works Board may authorize the augmentation of the amount authorized under this paragraph by up to 10 percent of the amount authorized. (6) The net present value of the cost to acquire and operate the facilities authorized by subdivision (a) may not exceed the net present value of the cost to lease and operate an equivalent amount of comparable office space over the same time period. The department shall perform this analysis and shall obtain interest rates, discount rates, and Consumer Price Index figures from the Treasurer and submit its analysis with the documents submitted pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (c). For purposes of this analysis, the department shall compare the cost of acquiring and operating the proposed facilities with the avoided cost of leasing and operating an equivalent amount of comparable office space that will no longer need to be leased because either (A) agencies will no longer occupy currently leased facilities when they occupy the proposed facilities, or (B) agencies will no longer occupy currently leased facilities when they occupy state-owned space being vacated by state agencies occupying the proposed facilities. The analysis shall also include the cost of any unique improvement associated with the moving of an agency into any state-owned space that would be vacated by agencies moving into the proposed facilities. However, these costs shall not include the cost of renovating or modernizing vacated state-owned space that is necessary to accommodate state agencies in general purpose office space. This paragraph shall not be construed as authorizing any renovation of state-owned space. (d) The director may execute and deliver a contract with the State Public Works Board for the lease of the facilities described in this section that are financed with the proceeds of the board’s bonds, notes, or bond anticipation notes issued in accordance with this section.

(a) The authority may, by resolution, adopt documents necessary or convenient to the exercise of its powers and may designate that any document shall be incorporated into the redevelopment plan. (b) Documents adopted pursuant to subdivision (a) may include a requirement that taxes, including possessory interest taxes, levied upon taxable property within the project area after the effective date of the resolution adopting the document or documents be divided as follows: (1) The portion of the taxes which would be produced by the rate upon which the tax is levied each year by or for each of the taxing agencies upon the total sum of the assessed value of the taxable property in the project area as shown upon the assessment roll used in connection with the taxation of the property by the taxing agency, last equalized prior to the effective date of the resolution, shall be allocated to, and when collected shall be paid into, the funds of the respective taxing agencies, as taxes by or for said taxing agencies on all other property are paid (for the purpose of allocating taxes levied by or for any taxing agency or agencies which did not include the territory in the project area on the effective date of the resolution but to which the territory has been annexed or otherwise included after the effective date, the assessment roll of the county last equalized on the effective date of said resolution shall be used in determining the assessed valuation of the taxable property in the project area on said effective dates). (2) The portion of said levied taxes each year in excess of that amount shall be allocated to, and when collected shall be paid into, a special fund of the authority to pay the principal of and interest on loans, moneys advanced to, or indebtedness (whether funded, refunded, assumed or otherwise) incurred by the authority to finance or refinance, in whole or in part, the redevelopment of the project area.

When these loans, advances, and indebtedness, if any, and interest thereon have been paid, then all moneys thereafter received from taxes upon the taxable property in the project area shall be paid into the funds of the respective taxing agencies as taxes on all other property are paid. (3) For the purpose of allocating taxes pursuant to the document prepared pursuant to this section, the base year shall remain fiscal year 1979–80. Commencing with the fiscal year 1982–83, the 1979–80 base year roll shall be adjusted to reflect the revised project area as set forth in subdivision (a) of Section 8180. (4) For the purposes of the document prepared pursuant to this section for the portion of the project area set forth in paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 8180 (the R Street Area), the base year shall be the 2001–02 fiscal year. Commencing with the 2002–03 fiscal year, the 2001–02 base year roll shall be adjusted to reflect the project area set forth in paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 8180. (5) The authority shall separately account for the receipt and expenditures of the allocation of taxes and rents from state-owned and leased property derived from that portion of the project area described in paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 8180 (the R Street Area). (6) The authority may not expend or otherwise use the allocation of taxes and rents from state-owned and leased property received from any other portion of the project area outside of that portion of the project area described in paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 8180 (the R Street Area), within the R Street Area unless otherwise approved in writing between the authority and the Director of General Services. (c) In the proceedings for the advance of moneys, or making of loans, or the incurring of any indebtedness (whether funded, refunded, assumed or otherwise) by the authority to finance or refinance, in whole or in part, the redevelopment project, the portion of taxes mentioned in paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) may be irrevocably pledged for the payment of the principal of and interest on said loans, advances, or indebtedness. (d) Any documents designated to be incorporated into the redevelopment plan may be adopted at any regular or special meeting of the authority. Notice of the authority’s intent to adopt the document shall be stated in the agenda prepared in connection with the meeting at which the document is adopted, which agenda shall be made available to the public in the manner specified in Section 54956. No other notice shall be required in connection with the adoption of these documents. (Amended by Stats. 2002, Ch. 468, Sec. 4. Effective January 1, 2003.)

(a) During the period commencing on July 1, 1982, and ending when 600 newly constructed dwelling units have been completed and initially occupied, the authority shall have currently occupied or make available at affordable rents to low-income households at least 25 percent of the existing dwelling units. (b) Beginning when 600 newly constructed dwelling units have been completed and initially occupied, the authority shall have currently occupied or make available at affordable rents to low-income households at least 25 percent of the total number of dwelling units located on property leased by the authority from the department. (c) The number of dwelling units which are required to be made available in the manner specified in subdivisions (a) and (b) shall be increased or decreased to reflect increases or decreases in the number of the units which are leased by the authority from the department. (d) The term “existing dwelling units,” as used in this section, means residential units located on property which was leased by the authority from the department on July 1, 1979. (e) The term “newly constructed dwelling units,” as used in this section, means residential units located on property which is first leased by the authority from the department after July 1, 1979. (f) The term “affordable rents,” as used in this section, means rents (including utility allowances established by the authority) not exceeding those allowed under the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments Program (42 U.S.C. Sec. 1437f) or its successor. (g) The term “low-income households,” as used in this section, means persons and families whose income does not exceed 80 percent of the median income of the Sacramento County Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area as adjusted by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development. (h) During the period commencing on January 1, 1980, and ending when 800 newly constructed dwelling units have been completed and occupied, the authority shall establish a schedule of rents designed to make available to low-income households not less than 400 units at as close to affordable rents as the authority deems practicable in light of its budgetary needs regarding its duties and obligations. The schedule shall be designed to impose market rate rents for remaining units leased by the authority from the department. (i) During period set forth in subdivision (h), rents for the 400 units referred to in subdivision (h) shall only be increased by an amount the authority determines is equal to the increase in the cost of operation and maintenance (including overhead) of the units. The foregoing determination shall be based on evidence presented at a regular or special meeting of the authority’s governing body. (j) During the period commencing on January 1, 1980, and ending when 600 newly constructed dwelling units have been completed and occupied, the provisions of subdivision (b) shall be a goal of the authority, which the authority shall pursue, giving due consideration to the provisions of the redevelopment plans and other duties and obligations of the authority. To this end, the authority shall utilize to the extent it deems appropriate: (1) Tax exempt financing for the construction of residential dwelling units, and (2) Federal and state programs for the subsidization of low-income households. (k) On or before November 1, 1980, and annually thereafter, the authority shall make public a status report regarding the authority’s progress in achieving the housing production goals set forth in subdivisions (a) and (b). The status report shall (1) set forth the degree to which the authority has achieved this goal, and (2) specify programs the authority intends to pursue to achieve this goal. (1) At the time the authority leases property for newly constructed dwelling units, it shall enter into a written lease with the developer of the units, designating the number of the units, if any, to be made available on a priority basis within that development to low-income households. If the number of units occupied by low-income households in the development ever falls below the designated number, then units which become available for occupancy shall, subject to available subsidies, be made available on a priority basis to low-income households until the number of units so occupied equals at least the number specified in the agreement. The authority may from time to time review agreements designating these units and, subject to agreement with the developer or his or her successors, may increase the number of units to be made available to low-income households. For the purpose of determining whether the authority is satisfying subdivision (b), units designated pursuant to this agreement shall be conclusively presumed to be available to low-income households at affordable rent. This presumption shall not apply in an action to enforce any provision of any lease or other agreement between the authority and the developer of newly constructed units. The authority shall monitor and enforce the provisions of this subdivision. (Amended by Stats. 1985, Ch. 156, Sec. 1. Effective July 8, 1985.)

(iii) As used in this subdivision, “substantially rehabilitated dwelling units” means substantially rehabilitated, with authority assistance, multifamily rented dwelling units with three or more units, or substantially rehabilitated, with authority assistance, single-family dwelling units with one or two units. (iv) As used in this subdivision, “substantial rehabilitation” means rehabilitation, the value of which constitutes 25 percent of the after-rehabilitation value of the dwelling, inclusive of the land value. (B) To satisfy the requirements of this subdivision, the authority may purchase, or otherwise acquire or cause by regulation or agreement the purchase or other acquisition of, long-term affordability covenants on multifamily units that restrict the cost of renting or purchasing those units that meet either of the following criteria: (i) The units are not presently available at affordable housing cost to persons and families of low or very low income. (ii) The units are presently available at affordable housing cost to these persons and families of low or very low income, but are units that the authority finds, based upon substantial evidence, after a public hearing, cannot reasonably be expected to remain affordable to this same group of persons or families. (3) To satisfy the requirements of this subdivision, newly constructed rental dwelling units shall remain affordable to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or moderate income for not less than 55 years.

This limit shall not prevent the authority from incurring debt, to be paid from that portion of the set-aside collected pursuant to Section 8191 from properties within the R Street Area, in order to either fulfill the authority’s obligations pursuant to Section 8193.1, or to refinance, refund, or restructure an indebtedness after the time limits if the indebtedness is not increased and the time during which the indebtedness is to be repaid does not exceed the date on which the indebtedness would have been paid. The loans, advances, or indebtedness may be repaid over a period of time longer than these time limits. (b) A time limit on authority activities within the R Street Area, which limit may not exceed December 31, 2032. However, the authority may pay previously incurred indebtedness and enforce existing covenants, contracts, and other obligations. This time limit shall not prevent the authority from fulfilling the authority’s obligations pursuant to Section 8193.1. (c) A time limit on receipt of property taxes pursuant to Section 8183 from properties within the R Street Area, which limit may not exceed December 31, 2047. However, this limit shall not be construed to affect the validity or payment of any bond, loans, advances, indebtedness or other obligation, or the right to receive taxes pursuant to Section 8183 to pay the loans, advances, indebtedness or other obligation to repay bonds, loans, advances, and indebtedness within those 45 years. (d) A time limit on the commencement of eminent domain proceedings to acquire property within the R Street Area, which limit may not exceed December 31, 2014, unless expressly extended by formal action of the authority. However, in no case shall the limit be extended beyond the time limit set in subdivision (b). (Added by Stats. 2002, Ch. 468, Sec. 8. Effective January 1, 2003.)
