REPORTS FROM EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR The
Executive Director reported on recent
questions concerning cash flow for the Redevelopment Agency. The Tustin Project Area has
a positive cash flow in terms of tax increments as well as a nice cash balance because of the refinancing
of bonds. Funds are available both tax exempt and taxable funds for projects. The positive cash flow
is in excess of a 1/4 million dollars per year.The Southwest and Northwest Project areas,
have had a lot of activity. The cash flow is not as positive but there are large balances as
it relates to funds from tax exempt and taxable bonds. As ofJuly 1, 1994,projected for the Southwest project area,
there is approximately 17 million dollars which are proceeds of bonds. Although there is a negative
cash flow in terms of a tax increment, this will be cured as the City starts to downsize and rightsize expenditures.
The Northwest Project area has a
negative cash flow as we compare increment and expenses but again this can be cured quickly. The
fund balance as ofJuly 1, 1994, projected, is approximately 13.9 million.There are substantial funds available to
do economic work that needs to be done and the Agency needs to be cautious of the cash flow.
Bob Bennyhoff, 10642 Morada Dr., asked
what is the cash balance for the Tustin Project area, and how far redevelopment would be expanding to
the east?PAGE Z r

6. REPORTS FROM EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR (Continued)
The Executive Director reported the cash balance for the Tustin Project area projected for July 1, 1994 is
approximately 5.9 million dollars. Regarding the expansion to the east, it is recommended that a new
project area be established within the next few months, and will try to include areas that encompass the
Villa Santiago Apartments, but not sure how far east it will go.
The Executive Director commented the City will need to rightsize the organization whether funded by the
General Fund, Water, Sewer or RDA (Redevelopment Agency) funds. A lot of the RDA costs now are
to offset general fund expenses. As the City right sizes there will be less and less demand on those funds
and those funds can be used for other activities. The Executive Director indicated he will review the
1986 bonds and notes to determine how the proceeds were used. This will be completed within the next
few days.
