recalling that in 1990, the Redding Redevelopment Agency (RRA) and the Shasta Unified

Market Street Project. The agreement places pass-through funds from tax increment revenue
into a "capital outlay fund" to be used for school capital improvements that will benefit the
Market Street Project Area. He advised that SUHSD is requesting $640,000 from the
existing balance in the "capital outlay fund" and future pass-through funds to assist in
repayment of$2.5 million in Certificates of Participation to be used to construct an artificial
turf field at the Shasta Learning Center and an artificial turf field and multipurpose building
(gym) at Shasta High School.
Mr. Starman recommended that the City Council authorize the use of Capital Outlay Funds
in the amount of $640,000 and future pass-through funds to help repay Certificates of
Participation in the amount of $2.5 million to SUHSD for the purpose stated above.
Chair Murray and Mayor Mathena noted that there was no one present wishing to speak on
the matter and closed the public hearing.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Stegall, seconded by Council Member Dickerson,
authorizing the use of $640,000 from the existing balance in the "capital outlay fund" and
future pass-through funds to assist in repayment of $2.5 million in Certificates of
Participation by Shasta Unified High School District to be used to construct an artificial turf
field at the Shasta Learning Center and an artificial turf field and a multipurpose building
(gym) at Shasta High School; and finding that the improvements are consistent with the pass-
through agreement for the Market Street Project and with Redevelopment Law, and is of
