SUBJECT:

ESTABLISH APPROPRIATIONS BASED ON AN OPERATING

TRANSFER FROM THE RESERVE ACCOUNT TO THE DEBT

SERVICE FUND (DISTRICTS: ALL)

OVERVIEW

On January 24, 2012 (14), the County of San Diego (County) was designated as the Successor

Agency to the Redevelopment Agency of the County of San Diego (Successor Agency) to

oversee the wind-down of the former Redevelopment Agency’s operations following the steps

established by California Assembly Bill (AB) X1 26 and AB 1484, collectively known as the

Dissolution Act. These steps include preserving assets, fulfilling legally binding commitments,

overseeing the termination of activities, and returning resources expeditiously to the affected

taxing entities.

In 2005, under an indenture agreement, the former Redevelopment Agency pledged tax

increment revenues generated within the Gillespie Field Project Area to make payments on San

Diego County Redevelopment Agency Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2005A (Bonds). When

the former Redevelopment Agency was dissolved, responsibility for paying the Bonds

transferred to the Successor Agency. Under the indenture agreement with the Bank of New York

Trust Company, N.A., as trustee, a required amount must be maintained in a debt service reserve

account to secure payment of the Bonds. If the Successor Agency is not in default and the debt

service reserve account balance exceeds the required amount, the trustee must transfer the excess

to a debt service fund. Any excess reserve amount transferred to the debt service fund is

restricted for use exclusively toward the Bonds’ eligible obligation payments. Currently, the

reserve account has an excess balance of $289,261, but only $150,000 has currently been

budgeted as available for transfer by appropriation. Based on staff analysis, an additional

$155,000 in appropriations is sufficient to allow the excess of $289,261 to be transferred along

with any other remaining excess reserve transfers for Fiscal Year 2025-26. Therefore, today’s

action requests appropriations, funded by an operating transfer from the CSAF GF Debt Service

Reserve Fund (Fund 23213) to the CSAF GF Debt Service Fund (Fund 23210), to maintain the

required debt service reserve account balance.

This item supports the County vision of a just, sustainable, and resilient future for all,

specifically those communities and populations in San Diego County that have been historically

underserved. This will be accomplished by managing redevelopment projects currently

underway, making payments on enforceable obligations, and allocating remaining property tax

revenues that exceed the enforceable obligations to cities, counties, special districts, school, and

community college districts.

RECOMMENDATION(S)

CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

Establish appropriations of $155,000 in the County of San Diego Successor Agency

Gillespie Field Debt Service Reserve (Fund 23213), Operating Transfer Out, based on an

Operating Transfer In in the County Successor Agency Gillespie Field Debt Service

(Fund 23210) to transfer the reserve amount in excess of the reserve account

requirement. (4 VOTES)

EQUITY IMPACT STATEMENT

As part of the 2011 Budget Act, the California Legislature dissolved over 400 Redevelopment

Agencies (RDA) in an effort to protect funding for core public services. This allowed local

jurisdictions to have more decision-making input on the development of communities, and the

resulting revenues. The dissolution went into effect on February 1, 2012. Property tax revenues

were diverted to pay off existing bonds, other obligations, and pass-through payments to local

governments. Any remaining property tax revenues that exceeded the enforceable obligations

were allocated to cities, counties, special districts, and schools and community college districts.

The approval of the establishment of appropriations in the County of San Diego (County)

Successor Agency Gillespie Field Debt Service Reserve (Fund 23213) will provide the County

with future revenue that can provide resources to preserve core public services for the

community, which includes, but are not limited to, programs and services to help improve the

health and public safety of residents.

SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT STATEMENT

Today’s actions support the Sustainability Goal #1 of engaging the community by transparently

sharing results of outcomes on current projects. Additionally, today’s actions support the County

of San Diego Sustainability Goal #2 of providing just and equitable access to resource

allocations by managing redevelopment projects currently underway.

FISCAL IMPACT

Funds for this request are partially included in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 Operational Plan in

the County of San Diego (County) Successor Agency. If approved, this request will result in

additional costs and revenue of $155,000 in FY 2025-26. The funding source is an operating

transfer from the County Successor Agency Gillespie Field Debt Service Reserve (Fund 23213)

to the County Successor Agency Gillespie Field Debt Service (Fund 23210) based on the reserve

amount in excess of the reserve account requirement. The excess reserve amount transferred to

the County Successor Agency Gillespie Field Debt Service (Fund 23210) will be restricted for

use exclusively toward eligible County Successor Agency obligation payments. There will be no

change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years.
