SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE
TOWN of LOS GATOS
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
AGENCY OVERVIEW
The Los Gatos Town Council activated the Los Gatos Redevelopment Agency on January 22, 1990,
pursuant to the provisions of the California Community Redevelopment Law (Health and Safety Code,
Section 33000 et seq.) and declared itself to constitute the Agency, by Ordinance No. 1806, adopted on
December 4, 1989. The Redevelopment Plan was pursued as a result of the Loma Prieta Earthquake in
1989 and the need to rebuild existing infrastructure. The Redevelopment Agency area encompassed
approximately 440 acres in and around downtown Los Gatos, which included retail and residential areas,
lodging, schools, and main traffic thoroughfares.
Projects completed in the plan area, including street and utility reconstruction, parking, streetscape, and
civic improvements, were funded through property tax increment revenue. When the Redevelopment
Agency was initially formed, the tax based for all properties within the redevelopment area was “frozen”
to form a “base year.” When properties were reassessed, the tax base grew and the Agency would receive
the majority of the difference in property taxes paid between the base year and the new level. This is
what is known as “tax increment revenue,” the primary funding mechanism for redevelopment agencies
in California. Tax increment revenue could only be used to debt service to fund projects located within
the redevelopment area.
BUDGET OVERVIEW
On June 15, 2011, the California State Legislature adopted two budget “trailer” bills concerning
redevelopment, ABx1 26 and ABx1 27 (hereafter AB 26 and AB 27 for simplicity). AB 26 (the
“Dissolution Act”) eliminated redevelopment agencies as of October 1, 2011, and essentially restricted
redevelopment agencies from entering into agreements, borrowing or lending funds, or acquiring or
disposing of real property prior to dissolution. Whereas, AB 27 (the “Voluntary Program Act”) allowed
redevelopment agencies to remain in existence and be exempt from AB 26 if certain “voluntary”
payments were made to the State in FY 2012 and in each fiscal year thereafter. These bills were signed
into law by the governor on July 28, 2011.
The League of California Cities and the California Redevelopment Association (CRA) filed a petition
with the California Supreme Court, challenging the constitutionality of AB 26 and AB 27. The California
Supreme Court, in its decision in California Redevelopment Association v. Matosantos, issued December
29, 2011 (the “Supreme Court Decision”), declared the Dissolution Act alone to be constitutional. Under
the Dissolution Act, all California redevelopment agencies were dissolved effective February 1, 2012.

SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE LOS GATOS REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
Following the provisions of the Dissolution Act, the Town Council of the Town of Los Gatos (the “Town
Council”) adopted a resolution accepting for the Town the role of successor agency (the “Successor
Agency”) to the Redevelopment Agency of the Town of Los Gatos (the “Redevelopment Agency”). An
oversight board (the “Oversight Board”), consisting of members representing Santa Clara County, the
Town, and various education and special districts was formed to approve and direct certain actions of the
Town as Successor Agency.
Prior to the dissolution of redevelopment agencies, redevelopment law required that 20 percent of tax
increment revenue received by an agency must be set aside for affordable housing activities. Under the
Dissolution Act, tax increment revenue received by the successor agency will not include funding for
affordable housing. However, tax-sharing agreements negotiated with affected public educational
entities, the Mid-Peninsula Open Space District, and Santa Clara County will continue to be recognized.
Nearly half of all Redevelopment Agency tax increment had been passed through to these taxing entities.
Successor agencies may also receive tax increment revenue to pay for enforceable obligations that were
incurred prior to the passage of the Dissolution Act. Under the Dissolution Act, successor agencies must
approve and submit a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) that reflects enforceable
obligations over a sixth month period. Prior to the payment of any enforceable obligation, the ROPS
must be certified by the county and subsequently approved by the Oversight Board. Successor agencies
must also approve and submit an administrative budget for operational expenses to the Oversight Board
for approval. Successor agencies may receive a minimum of up to $250,000 or up to 3 percent of tax
increment revenues received by the Successor Agency per fiscal year for administrative expenses, which
is significantly lower than the Successor Agency’s current administrative expenses. As a result, expenses
for programs such as Economic Vitality, for example, must now be funded through the General Fund,
placing a burden on the Town’s operating budget.
The Town has several existing enforceable obligations that must be paid over the remaining life of the
debt service, or until the Successor Agency reaches the tax increment cap, which is the gross tax
increment collected over the life of the Agency. The Town’s tax increment cap, which is anticipated to be
reached by FY 2027/28, is approximately $250 million. The Successor Agency currently pays debt
service on 3 Certificates of Participation (COPs):
1992 COPs Payments for Parking Lot #4: In 1992, the Town issued debt for approximately $2.5
million to finance the construction of the downtown parking garage known as Lot #4. Successor
Agency tax increment revenue is used to pay the debt service on the COPs in an amount of
approximately $252,000 annually. This debt will be paid in full in early FY 2012/13.
2002 COPs Payments for RDA Capital Projects: In 2002, the Town issued debt for
approximately $10.8 million to fund RDA infrastructure projects in the project area. Annual debt
service payments of approximately $680,000 will continue through FY 2031/32.
2010 COPs Payments for Town Library: In 2010, the Town issued debt for approximately $15.7
million to fund the construction of the new library building. Annual debt service payments of
approximately $1.2 million will continue through FY 2027/28.
Agency Administration: This pays for the day-to-day operations of the Successor Agency,
including staff salary and benefits, supplies and materials, and consultant assistance. Annual
budgeted expenditures are estimated to be $250,000.

Administration
FUND 911
FUND PURPOSE
The Successor Agency’s Administration Fund encompasses administrative functions related to
operational and fiscal matters of the Successor Agency, in conjunction with the Finance Department.
Prior to the dissolution of the Redevelopment Agency, this fund also supported capital project
development, management, and construction oversight; and economic vitality activities to enhance
revenues through business promotion and retention. While there will be no future capital projects, with
the exception of one street reconstruction project in the former redevelopment area, economic vitality
efforts will continue and are now supported by the General Fund.
BUDGET OVERVIEW
The FY 2012/12 Administration Fund budget reflects $250,000 of tax increment revenue to cover the
operational and fiscal reporting expenses of the Successor Agency. To receive this revenue, successor
agencies are required to submit an administrative budget every 6 months to their respective oversight
boards for approval. The maximum administrative allowance of up to $250,000, or up to 3 percent of tax
increment revenues received by the Successor Agency per fiscal year, is significantly lower than the
Successor Agency’s current administrative expenses, which difference must be absorbed by the General
Fund, placing a burden on the Town’s operating budget. The Administration Fund budget also reflects a
small amount of additional funding for the Almond Grove Concrete Rehabilitation project.

SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE
TOWN of LOS GATOS
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
Debt Service Fund
Fund 921
FUND PURPOSE
Tax increment revenue is restricted to the repayment of debt; therefore, a Successor Agency must have
indebtedness in order to receive increment revenue. Prior to the Dissolution Act, the Los Gatos
Redevelopment Agency assumed the obligation of paying the debt service on the Town’s 1992, 2002, and
2010 Certificates of Participation (COPs) in return for the lease of Town property. The purpose of the
COPs was to fund key capital infrastructure projects located in the former redevelopment area. Payments
for this indebtedness were and will continue to be made from the Debt Service Fund.
BUDGET OVERVIEW
As discussed above, the Successor Agency is currently paying debt service on three COPs:
1992 Certificates of Participation. The Town bears the obligation for the 20-year COPs issued in the
original amount of $2,960,000, dated August 1, 1992. The Town’s Motor Vehicle License Fee revenues
were pledged as security for the COPs, and the guarantee was registered with the State Controller’s
Office.
The COPs were issued to finance certain construction costs of the Town’s Parking Lot 4 Project, which
was constructed on land located in the Los Gatos Central Redevelopment Project Area. The project
consisted of the construction of a parking facility comprising 316 parking spaces on two levels, located on
approximately 4 acres of land in the block bounded by University and Santa Cruz Avenues, Grays Lane,
and Elm Street. The lot improvements were paid for from the 1992 COPs proceeds, in conjunction with
the portion paid for through the 1988 Downtown Parking Assessment District’s Limited Obligation
Bonds in the amount of $1,587,986.
The COPs are similar to bond debt as they allow investors to participate in a share of guaranteed
payments. Because they are similar to debt, the present value of the total of the payments to be made is
recorded as long-term debt. Principal payments are due annually on August 1, with interest payments
payable semi-annually on February 1 and August 1.
PROPOSED
F - 10
SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE LOS GATOS REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
Debt Administration Fund
The financing structure of the COPs includes two twenty-year term lease agreements dated August 1,
1992, between the Town of Los Gatos and the Successor Agency for the Town of Los Gatos
Redevelopment Agency. The first lease, with the Town as lessor and the Successor Agency as lessee,
agrees to lease the site to the Agency for the duration of the lease term for a one-time fee of $10. The
second lease, with the Town as lessee and the Successor Agency as lessor, agrees to lease the completed
parking lot site to the Town effective the date of the lease. Annual lease payments are equal to the annual
debt service for the COPs. In addition, a Reimbursement Agreement dated August 1, 1992 between the
Town and the Successor Agency obligates the Agency to reimburse the Town in an amount equal to the
annual lease payment the Town pays to the Agency for lease of the parking lot (under the second lease
agreement). This reimbursement is in consideration of the Town’s cost of the acquisition and the Town’s
funding of the construction of the parking lot project.
While the annual impact of these agreements nets to zero, the lease and reimbursement payments are
included in both the Town’s and Successor Agency’s budgets each year to accurately reflect the terms of
these agreements. The Agency remains responsible for making the principal and interest payments to US
Bank. The debt service for the 1992 COPs will be paid in full in FY 2012/13.
2002 Certificates of Participation. The 2002 Certificates of Participation financing structure parallels the
1992 issue. The Town bears an obligation for the 30-year Certificates of Participation issued in the
original amount of $10,725,000, dated August 1, 2002. The COPs were issued to finance infrastructure
improvements in the downtown redevelopment area, including plaza reconstruction, streetscape
improvements, street reconstruction, storm drainage, and alley improvements, as well as partially funding
the reconstruction of the pool at Los Gatos High School. The COPs principal payments are due annually
on August 1, with interest payments payable semi-annually on February 1 and August 1.
The financing structure of the COPs includes two lease agreements between the Town of Los Gatos and
the Successor Agency for the Town of Los Gatos Redevelopment Agency dated July 1, 2002. The first
agreement leases five Town-owned parcels, commonly known as the Miles Avenue Corporation Yard, to
the Successor Agency through August 1, 2031 for a one-time fee of $1. In the second lease, the
Successor Agency subleases the land back to the Town, effective the date of the original lease. The
annual sub-lease payments are equal to the annual debt service for the COPs.
A reimbursement agreement between the Town and the Successor Agency, also dated July 1, 2002,
obligates the Agency to reimburse the Town in an amount equal to the annual lease payment the Town
pays to the Agency for the sub-lease of the Corporation Yard. This reimbursement is in consideration of
the Town’s cost of the acquisition and construction of the yard facilities.
While the annual impact of these agreements nets to zero, the lease and reimbursement payments are
included in both the Town’s and Successor Agency’s budgets each year to accurately reflect the terms of
these agreements. The Agency remains responsible for making the principal and interest payments.
2010 Certificates of Participation. The 2010 Certificates of Participation financing structure parallels the
1992 and 2002 issues. The Town bears an obligation for the 18-year Certificates of Participation issued in
the original amount of $15,675,000, dated June 1, 2010. The COPs were issued to finance the
construction of the new Town library. The COPs principal payments are due annually on August 1, with
interest payments payable semi-annually on February 1 and August 1.

SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE LOS GATOS REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
Debt Administration Fund
The financing structure of the COPs includes two lease agreements between the Town of Los Gatos and
the Successor Agency for the Town of Los Gatos Redevelopment Agency dated June 1, 2010. The first
agreement leases Town-owned parcels, including the existing library, police administration building, and
related property located at the Civic Center, to the Successor Agency through August 1, 2028 for a one-
time fee of $1. In the second lease, the Successor Agency subleases the property back to the Town,
effective the date of the original lease. The annual sub-lease payments are equal to the annual debt
service for the COPs.
A reimbursement agreement between the Town and Agency, also dated June 1, 2010, obligates the
Agency to reimburse the Town in an amount equal to the annual lease payment the Town pays to the
Agency for the sub-lease of the existing library, police administration building, and related properties.
This reimbursement is in consideration of the Town’s cost of the acquisition and construction of the
library and police facilities.
While the annual impact of these agreements nets to zero, the lease and reimbursement payments are
included in both the Town’s and Successor Agency’s budgets each year to accurately reflect the terms of
these agreements. The Agency remains responsible for making the principal and interest payments.
Pass-Through Agreements
In prior years, pass-through agreement payments to taxing entities were paid by the former Los Gatos
Redevelopment Agency, which comprised a majority of the Debt Service Fund’s operating expenditures.
As a result of the Dissolution Act, the Successor Agency will no longer receive tax increment for the
pass-through agreements, and payments will be distributed by the County of Santa Clara.

California Government Code Section 43605 states: “A city shall not incur an indebtedness for public
improvements which exceeds in the aggregate 15 percent of the assessed value of all real and personal
property of the city. Within the meaning of this section indebtedness means bonded indebtedness of the
city payable from the proceeds of taxes levied upon taxable property in the city.”
This schedule calculates the Town’s legal debt margin by determining the 15% debt limit and comparing
this limit to the Town’s outstanding debt at the end of the fiscal year to determine the difference between
the two. Only certain types of outstanding debt are subject to the legal debt limit; therefore, while this
schedule recognizes all debt, the total debt is reduced by that debt not subject to the legal debt limit, as
well as amounts held in sinking funds for debt repayment.
The Town’s debt structure currently includes only Certificates of Participation, which are not subject to
the legal debt limit, and are therefore removed from the calculation.

Affordable Housing Fund
FUND 931
FUND PURPOSE
Prior to the dissolution of the Redevelopment Agency, this fund provided for the implementation of its
required Affordable Housing Set-Aside Program obligations. The program’s core services included the
administration and fiscal responsibilities for the program, and the creation of affordable housing options
in cooperation with both non-profit and for-profit developers.
Under prior redevelopment law, California Community Redevelopment Law (CRL) required that no less
than 20 percent of tax increment revenue derived from a redevelopment project area be used to increase,
improve, and preserve the supply of housing for very low-, low-, and moderate-income households. If
none was provided within a redevelopment project area, then the funds could be used to build twice that
amount elsewhere. Possibilities included financial assistance to upgrade existing units, the construction of
new housing, and improvements to public facilities and infrastructure that serviced low- and moderate-
income neighborhoods.
BUDGET OVERVIEW
The FY 2012/13 Successor Agency budget does not reflect any new projects due to discontinued tax
increment funding per the Dissolution Act of 2012. The Statement of Source and Use of Funds on the
following page provides the current available fund balance that must be remitted to the Santa Clara
County Auditor-Controller to be distributed to other taxing entities.

Recognized Obligation Retirement Fund
FUND 941
FUND PURPOSE
Under the Dissolution Act, a Successor Agency is required to establish a Recognized Obligation
Retirement Fund (RORF) to receive tax increment revenue to pay enforceable obligations and
administrative fees and allowances approved by a Successor Agency’s Oversight Board.
BUDGET OVERVIEW
The Recognized Obligation Retirement Fund (RORF) serves as a custodian account that receives tax
increment revenue remittances from Santa Clara County to pay enforceable obligations, including debt
service and related expenses and operational administrative costs. It is anticipated that the RORF fund
balance will remain at zero as revenue deposited is immediately transferred to other funds to pay
applicable obligations.
