Chapter 6. Effect Of The Act Adding This Part On The Community Redevelopment Law of California Health And Safety Code >> Division 24. >> Part 1.85. >> Chapter 6.

(a) Commencing on the effective date of this part, all provisions of the Community Redevelopment Law that depend on the allocation of tax increment to redevelopment agencies, including, but not limited to, Sections 33445, 33640, 33641, and 33645, and subdivision (b) of Section 33670, shall be inoperative. Solely for the purposes of the payment of enforceable obligations defined by subparagraphs (A) to (G), inclusive, of paragraph (1) of subdivision (d) of Section 34171 and subdivision (b) of Section 34191.4, and for no other purpose whatsoever, a successor agency is not subject to the limitations relating to time, number of tax dollars, or any other matters set forth in Sections 33333.2, 33333.4, and 33333.6. Notwithstanding any other provision in this section, this subdivision shall not result in the restoration or continuation of funding for projects whose contractual terms specified that project funding would cease once the limitations specified in any of Section 33333.2, 33333.4, or 33333.6 were realized.
  (b) To the extent that a provision of Part 1 (commencing with Section 33000), Part 1.5 (commencing with Section 34000), Part 1.6 (commencing with Section 34050), and Part 1.7 (commencing with Section 34100) conflicts with this part, the provisions of this part shall control. Further, if a provision of Part 1 (commencing with Section 33000), Part 1.5 (commencing with Section 34000), Part 1.6 (commencing with Section 34050), or Part 1.7 (commencing with Section 34100) provides an authority that the act adding this part is restricting or eliminating, the restriction and elimination provisions of the act adding this part shall control.
  (c) It is intended that the provisions of this part shall be read in a manner as to avoid duplication of payments.

No party, public or private, may pursue, nor does a court have jurisdiction over, a validation action with respect to any action of a redevelopment agency or a successor agency to a redevelopment agency that took place on or after January 1, 2011, unless the Department of Finance and the Controller, representing interests of the State of California and each of the taxing entities who could be affected financially by the action, has been properly noticed. All actions shall be filed in the County of Sacramento.

A successor agency or any party to an enforceable obligation as defined under this part shall properly notice the state with respect to a validation action involving any enforceable obligation or matter of title to an asset that belonged to a redevelopment agency. For such an action to be properly filed, both the Controller and the Director of Finance shall be noticed and actions shall be filed in the County of Sacramento.

An action contesting any act taken or determinations or decisions made pursuant to this part or Part 1.8 (commencing with Section 34161) may be brought in superior court and shall be filed in the County of Sacramento.
