INTRODUCTION
California Health and Safety Code Section 33080.1 requires that the Redevelopment Agency present an annual report to the legislative body six months after the end of the Agencys fiscal year. The report is to contain updates on, and discussion of, the following: An independent financial audit report for the previous fiscal year; A fiscal statement for the previous fiscal year that contains the information required pursuant to Section 33080.5; A description of the Agencys activities in the previous fiscal year affecting housing and displacement that contains the information required by Sections 33080.4 and 33080.7; A description of the Agencys progress, including specific actions and expenditures, in alleviating blight in the previous fiscal year; A list of, and status report on, all loans made by the Redevelopment Agency that are fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) or more, that in the previous fiscal year were in default, or not in compliance with the terms of the loan approved by the Redevelopment Agency; A description of the total number and nature of the properties that the Agency owns and those properties the Agency has acquired in the previous fiscal year; A list of the fiscal years that the Agency expects each of the following time limits to expire; and Any other information that the Agency believes useful to explain its programs, including, but not limited to, the number of jobs created and lost in the previous fiscal year as a result of its activities.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Lakeport Redevelopment Agency was formed by the Lakeport City Council in 1986. The City Council formed the Agency, and the Council Members serve as the Redevelopment Board of Directors. The Agency was formed, in accordance with State law, to respond to blight conditions within the Project Area.

The Lakeport Redevelopment Project Area is 612 acres which represents 35% of the Lakeport City limits. The Project Area is the heart of the community and covers the oldest developed parts of the City, including the downtown core, and numerous late 19th and early 20th century residential subdivisions. Early land development activity within the Project Area took place in the late 1800s. The areas near the lake along Main and Forbes Streets and on the east/west streets near downtown were the first to develop. There are many older buildings in the Project Area that require repair and revitalization, and there is a need to upgrade public facilities and infrastructure as well. The downtown area of Lakeport is a key part of the Lakeport Redevelopment Project Area. Downtown Lakeport is the historic commercial core of the community and has a traditional late 19th century appearance and feel. Main Street, which used to serve as a state highway, is the key north/south surface street through Lakeport and extends through the center of downtown Lakeport just two blocks west of the Clear Lake shoreline. Downtown Lakeport is closely linked to Clear Lake and there is an intent to strengthen and improve this area through the use of enhanced land use patterns, pedestrian circulation, landscaping, lighting, architectural design, quality open spaces, and other urban design techniques. The California Redevelopment Law grants various powers to Redevelopment Agencies to address blight conditions. Blight reduction is the legal basis for Redevelopment, and there are many City activities that overlay with and benefit from the use of Redevelopment authority. Redevelopment is an important tool for achieving public goals that are set forth in the Lakeport General Plan. Redevelopment also fosters economic development activities and helps the City revitalize the community, encourage new development, create jobs, and generate greater tax revenues, including sales taxes, at no additional cost to property owners. Redevelopment directs more money overall to help finance public infrastructure and other community needs. Redevelopment Agencies have two key tools at their disposal. One is tax increment financing. Redevelopment Agencies can also help make a private project viable by subsidizing certain components of a project such as land acquisition or project infrastructure. The other key tool enabled by Redevelopment is land assembly. There are various approaches that an Agency can take to assemble land thereby making development projects more viable. The preferred approach is working with property owners in mutually beneficial negotiation. Eminent domain, the ability to compel a property owner to sell their property for the fair market value, is another approach, and it is becoming less frequently used. The Lakeport Redevelopment Plan does not provide for (allow) the use of eminent domain.

PERSONNEL
The Lakeport Redevelopment Agency is a separate legal entity from the City; however, it is staffed by City employees assigned to carry out its purpose and the goals and objectives of its governing body, the Agency Board of Directors. This is done through an agreement between the Agency and the City, whereby the Agency compensates the City for use of its employees. For budgeting and operating purposes, the City considers the Agency as a de facto department within it.
KEY STAFF BIOS

Margaret Silveira City Manager Redevelopment Executive Director Margaret joined the City in April of 2010. As part of her role as City Manager, she is the Executive Director for the Agency, overseeing general policy implementation. Margaret has considerable local government experience, including a three year tenure as the city manager for the City of Gustine and over eight years as the Director of Housing and Economic Development in the City of Riverbank in the California Central Valley. Her background includes work with planning and community development issues, as well as issues related to redevelopment and economic development. Richard Knoll Community Development Director Richard has been with the City of Lakeport since 1986. Richard is the department head responsible for carrying out the Agencys goals, objectives, and projects, as well as overseeing day-to-day operations. In addition to overseeing the Community Development Department (CDD), which houses Building and Planning divisions, he has responsibility for Redevelopment, Housing, and Economic Development activities as well. Richard is a seasoned local government professional with over 32 years of planning, community development, and redevelopment experience in various local government agencies in California and Oregon. Trisha Franco Housing Specialist Trisha began her career with the City of Lakeport in 1994 as a secretary working in the Community Development Department. In 2008, she was assigned the position of Housing Specialist to administer an $800,000 HOME grant for first-time homebuyers and owner-occupied rehabilitation projects, and to continue working the existing CDBG and RDA housing funds. Since that time, the City has received an additional $1.2 million in grant funds to continue the housing programs. In

AGENCY ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS IN 2010/2011
2010/2011 was a difficult and tumultuous year for Redevelopment Agencies in the State of California. In the summer of 2011, the California Legislator and Governor Jerry Brown approved two pieces of legislation (ABX26 and ABX27) which in tandem eliminated redevelopment and at the same time allowed Agencies to be reconstituted subject to a commitment to make a substantial continuation payment and agree to pay future annual continuation payments in perpetuity. There was a significant amount of City staff time spent in communicating with State Legislators and the Governor along with organizing local opposition to the legislative proposal. There were letters and emails sent to legislators and to the Governor, a trip to Sacramento to participate in a rally, time spent listening to several web casts put on by the California Redevelopment Association (CRA), and the League of California Cities (LCC) and in updating the City Council / Agency Board. All of this effort was to no avail. It was particularly discouraging that the Citys State representatives never acknowledged the City correspondence sent to them regarding the redevelopment legislation.. The CRA and the LCC filed suit with the California Supreme Court challenging the constitutionality of ABX26 and ABX27, and a decision on that case is pending. In the meantime, the Court issued a stay which effectively shut down any new redevelopment activities of the Agency after July of 2011. In spite of the actions of the State Legislature and Governor to end Redevelopment, progress has been made in carrying out the goals, activities, and projects of the Lakeport Redevelopment Agency, including eliminating blight conditions in the Project Area. The following section describes the Agencys progress, including specific actions and expenditures, to alleviate blight within the Project Area in 2010/2011
REDEVELOPMENT PROJECTS, PLANNING AND DESIGN

Pursuant to its 2009-2014 Five-Year Redevelopment Implementation Plan, the Lakeport Redevelopment Agency engaged in the following projects, planning, and design activities to alleviate blight in Fiscal Year 2010/2011 included: Downtown Improvement Projects: Proposed Phase II Downtown Improvements will consist of construction of new wide sidewalks, street trees, lighting, new handicap ramps and irrigation. The Downtown Improvement Project will also include related infrastructure including storm drain facilities and roadway improvements. This project will implement the Downtown Improvement Plan approved by the City Council in 2006 and is intended to beautify and enhance the downtown area. This Improvement project will match and compliment those improvements installed in 2008 (Third and Park Streets and the City Hall parking lot). The improvement area includes Main Street between Martin Street and Third
7|Page

Street, Park Street between First and Second Streets, Second Street between Main and Park Streets, and First Street between Main Street and the Clear Lake shoreline. The Agency has engaged in a significant amount of action and activity designed to implement the Phase II project, consistent with the Lakeport General Plan and the Downtown Improvement Plan. City staff defined the budget for Phase II of the Downtown Improvements which was approved by the Agency in June. There has been significant progress made in 2010/2011 in preparation in of engineered improvement plans which are approximately 80% complete. A graphic representation of the design plan follows.

Faade Enhancement Program: The Agency continues to operate the Facade Enhancement Program in the downtown and Main Street corridor areas of the Project Area. The Faade Enhancement Program provides funding for design and construction of new and renovated storefronts (up to $35,000). There have been 20 projects designed with several projects having completed construction through Owner Participation Agreements (OPA): The faade program continues to be popular in the Main Street business community and expectations for more construction as the economy improves are good.
Dr. Mark Buehnerkemper's Office
Land Assembly and Acquisition for Redevelopment Projects: There are areas of the Project Area that are developed with under-performing land uses. The downtown area and the Lakeport Boulevard / South Main Street intersection area are examples. The Agency has worked with property owners and developers in discussions regarding assembly and acquisition of land into appropriate parcel sizes and configuration to facilitate the development of high-quality retail, office, mixed use hotel or residential uses. Hotel Development: The Agency continues to support the development of a hotel project in the Project Area. The Agency has identified several potential hotel development sites. Once a developer(s) is selected, the Agency will enter into negotiations and develop a strategy and agreement for moving forward on a hotel project(s). The Agency may also participate financially in the project in a manner to be determined and negotiated. Agency staff prepared a hotel RFP but has put this project on hold due to current economic conditions. Discussions with a downtown property owner regarding a boutique hotel project were conducted a couple of years ago, and there have been discussions with the owner of Vista Point Shopping Center about the potential for a hotel. In addition, Agency staff has met with a local hotelier regarding a downtown hotel project.

The Anchorage Inn motel on North Main Street was sold to a new owner in 2011. City staff has met with the owners to discuss ways in which the Agency can help improve the business. Waterfront Planning and Development: The Agency continued its efforts to prepare a Waterfront Development Plan for the area north of Third Street to Clear Lake Avenue and from Third Street south to C Street. Consultants will be hired to work with the Agency, the general public, property owners, and interested parties in the waterfront plan development. Conceptual plans, which will serve as a starting point for public discussion, have been prepared. The graphic design of one of the conceptual plans is below. It is anticipated that Agency staff will prepare a consultant RFP in 2012.
New / Relocated Parking Facility Construction: The Agency has not considered funding the construction of new or relocated parking facilities within the Project Area in the fiscal year. Shovel Ready Development Project: This project involves the possibility of working with landowner(s) in the Project Area (South Main Street Campbell Hill area) to plan, assemble land, obtain entitlements, and assist in development of job producing facilities and buildings. Staff has continued to work on the concept and has several discussions with consultants to develop an RFP. Staff will continue to work on this project in fiscal year 2010/2011.
10 | P a g e
Public Safety Facility Construction: The Redevelopment Agency has, in the past, considered participating in the construction of new Public Safety Buildings on Larrecou Lane. Buildings would house the Lakeport Fire Protection Districts main fire station. Agency staff has in the past met with the District Chief to review options and discussed Redevelopment financing. There are restrictions on funding proposals such as this. Superior Court Construction - AOC: The Agency has taken an active role in the construction of a new Superior Court building in the Project Area. Staff participated in the Lakeport Courthouse Program Advisory Group. This group meets regularly to review and make recommendations concerning Courthouse development issues. A site on Vista Point was selected by the state as the project location. Agency staff worked with the Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC) on this project and in the identification of project impacts. The Agency has commented on the project environmental review and has entered into an MOU with the AOC relative to assuring access to the property from Lakeport Boulevard. There was also an agreement reached with the AOC to study the feasibility of developing a new street to serve the project. Quincy Engineering is working directly with the AOC to study this important project component with results expected in 2012/2013. Redevelopment Plan Amendment: The Redevelopment Agency may consider an amendment of the Redevelopment Plan to add land, extend the Plan time frames, or other amendments. Critical and immediate concerns prevented staff from pursuing this goal as aggressively as was intended and, as a result, no significant progress was made in fiscal year 2010/2011; however, staff intends to devote more time and resources to this effort in fiscal year 2011/2012. Nuisance Abatement and Blight Elimination Activities: In 2011 the Community Development Department contacted the owners of two parcels in the Redevelopment Project Area that had nuisance/blighted structures on them and worked with the owners to have the structures demolished. 1370 Sixth St. / APN 025-034-01 This property was the site of a badly dilapidated single family dwelling and detached garage that were visible from Highway 29. The blighted property was a notable eyesore.

After
Staff contacted the property owner and advised him of nuisance conditions on the property, including the dilapidated dwelling and an accumulation of outdoor trash and debris. The owner expressed a willingness to demolish the house and wanted to avoid the formal nuisance abatement process. Staff continued to stay in contact with the owner and the demolition permit application was submitted in March 2011. The house and garage were demolished shortly thereafter. In addition to demolishing the house and detached garage and removing the related debris, the contractor cleaned up a trash pile that was located near the end of Sixth Street (in the turnaround area), removed a dilapidated construction trailer that was stored on the property, and removed a variety of construction debris that was stored outside. 225 S. Estep St. / APN 025-293-07

After
This property was the site of a dilapidated duplex structure that had been unoccupied for more than 20 years. The Community Development Department contacted the property owner in April 2011 and advised that the property was considered to be a serious nuisance and that the City intended to pursue its demolition.
12 | P a g e

The owner was cooperative and agreed to demolish the structure. Staff continued to follow up with the owner and provided a list of locally-licensed demolition contractors. A demolition permit application was submitted in July 2011 and the structure was demolished and all related debris was removed shortly thereafter. Other Nuisance Abatement Enforcement Activities in Project Area The following nuisances and zoning violations are in the redevelopment project area and were investigated by Community Development Department staff in 2011. 110 S. Tunis 1040 Central Park Ave. 15 Royale Ave. 345 Seventh St. 767 Third St. 440 Campbell Lane 60 Oak Knoll Ave. 150 Third St. 695 Armstrong St. 302 N.

The map below shows the location of code enforcement / nuisance abatement activities in the Project Area.
Other Planning and Project Administration: The Agency considered and took action on several administrative matters relating to the possible end of Redevelopment, including a Resolution transferring land on Bevins Court to the City, a Cooperation Agreement Resolution between the City and the Agency, and a Funding Agreement Resolution between the Agency and the City. Bond proceed funds from the Agency were transferred to the City and earmarked for downtown improvements. The Agency staff dealt with a number of specific projects prior to the States legislative actions on ABX26 and ABX27, including OPAs for Peggy Campbell, Bill Irwin, Mark Buehnerkemper, Savings Bank of Mendocino, and Lakeport Pacific Associates.

Richard Knoll member was a speaker at the CRA Annual Conference in San Jose in April. In fiscal year 2010/2011, the Agency worked with the following organizations to achieve notable programs and projects: The Lakeport Main Street Association Board of Directors and several Lakeport Main Street Association committees, including the Economic Restructuring and Design Committees; The Lakeport Economic Development Advisory Committee; and The Lakeport Main Street Association on community events and recruitment efforts.
The Agency Five Year Implementation Plan was developed by staff and adopted by the Agency in 2009.
REDEVELOPMENT CAPITAL PROJECTS

The Agency considered capital projects in fiscal year 2010/2011 including: Project Area Infrastructure: The Agency considered funding public sewer, water, storm drainage, right-of-way improvements (including bike lanes), and undergrounding of overhead utilities in conjunction with waterfront and other Redevelopment projects in the Project Area. To this end, the Agency is currently working on a neighborhood improvement project on Armstrong Street. A PTA Grant for a study of neighborhood infrastructure improvement needs was approved in 2010 and an RFP is to be issued in late 2010. Completion of the South Main Street sidewalks is also under consideration. A major sidewalk improvement project was constructed in 2010 at 566 S. Main Street. The project addressed a blight issue that has existed for many years involving a steep slope adjacent to the street and a gap in the Main Street sidewalk. At a cost of $175,000, the Agency built a retaining wall, new sidewalks, hand-railing, handicap ramp, street trees and grates.
HOUSING
The Agency is required to provide a description of its activities in the previous fiscal year affecting housing and displacement that contains the information, as is required by Sections 33080.4 and 33080.7 of California Health and Safety Code. The Redevelopment Agency staff continued negotiations for a large multi-family senior affordable apartment project on Martin Street. Working with developers AMG Associates and Lakeport Pacific Associates LLC the Agency staff encouraged the submittal of entitlement actions which were processed and approved in June of 2009. In addition, the Agency supported the submittal of a
15 | P a g e

HOME Grant application along with other funding proposals and negotiated an Agency financial participation. The Agency participated in a vacant residential lands analysis and an inventory for the purpose of identifying both single-family and multi-family residential development opportunities. This information was provided to the Agency with the recommendation for participation in specific development projects, including the Lakeport Pacific Association project on Martin Street. There was a resolution passed by the Agency in support of Habitat for Humanity involving the construction of affordable housing within the City of Lakeport. Agreement was reached with Habitat for the construction of three residential units over a three year period. The Agency approved a loan to owner Ken Davis for a multi-family rehabilitation project to improve the affordable four-plex units and structure. The Agency worked with the Ukiah-based Northern Circle Indian Housing Authority for a single family development project on Forest Drive. A request was made to the County to acquire a tax defaulted lot on Terrace Drive, with the intent to donate it to NAHDC for a new SFD. Unfortunately, neighborhood opposition and lack of response from Lake County resulted in the housing entity pulling out of the project. The Lakeport Redevelopment Agency conducted no housing activities which resulted in any need or requirement for displacement. The Agency did participate in other housing activities, however, including the Lakeport Housing Element Update, single-family housing rehabilitation and upgrade, grants, etc. Below is a sample of the projects completed during fiscal year 2009/2010. A complete list is included as Appendix A, Housing Activity report presented and dated December 2011.
