MOTION 2 – TO ADOPT LEGISLATIVE INTENTS I move that the Board adopt the Legislative Intent Statements as outlined on the motion sheet under Motion 2, items A through D. A.New Program Funding Allocations. It is the intent of the RDA Board in the current budget year, and in future budget years, to consolidate the budgeting and policy development steps for new programs so that funding is allocated after the Board has had the opportunity to get a full understanding of the proposal and to exercise their policy making discretion. It is further the intent of the Council to review by December 2022 all RDA accounts that contain balances to determine whether the appropriations still align with the goals of the Board. B.Equity, Inclusion, and Other Goals. It is the intent of the RDA Board to continue to collaborate with the Administration and prioritize equity and inclusion in the Board's policy, oversight, budget decisions and any RFP/RFQs or request for master developers. The Board requests options from the City Administration and RDA staff to maximize opportunities for meaningful involvement for a wide array of developers and professionals. Further, it is the intent of the Board to authorize funding for projects that support walkability, are built at a scale to encourage human interaction, and include architectural interest and variety. C.Early Information and Board Feedback. It is the intent of the RDA Board to ask the Administration to provide information as soon as practicable regarding any talks and negotiations with other parties on projects or developments sought, to request the Board’s feedback, and if appropriate, the approval of the Board via a resolution. D.Updates from Legislative Sessions. It is the intent of the RDA Board, as the policy making body, to collaborate with the RDA staff and City Administration before, during, and after Legislative sessions on any concepts that may relate to Redevelopment Agency Legislation. Further, it is the Board's intent that after every Legislative session in which RDA laws are created, amended, or eliminated, the director brief the Board on those issues, as well as on any new tools that the Board could use to advance projects or infrastructure funding in RDA project areas.
