A i iumb(-r of deveiopers have indicated an interest in that property of concern to Dr. Brashears, however,they prefer to wait for the finalization of the program for implementation of redevelopment, and none have asked for the same agreement for development of that particular property. He noted that the boundaries of the property will change as plans for Pro- ject Alpha are finalized, and in time, he was confident that appro- priate plans could be worked out with Dr. Brashears and with other developers. Chairman Thom stated that inasmuch as Dr. Brashears is the only aggressively interested party concerning the property in question, he did not object to the extension of the agreement. On motion by Commissioner Seymour, seconded by Commissioner Sneegas, the City Attorney was instructed to prepare a 90 -day extension to the agreement with Dr. William Brashears for exclusive right to negotiate on property generally bounded by Broadway, .

Anaheim Housing Authority, Continued Redevelopment Director Knowlton Fernald reported that a written opinion has been requested from the office of Eugene Jacobs, Special Legal Counsel, as to the legality of using tax increment funds for suppni - cr T'ousing Author "Al . 2 1 . , rep -bal indication h:.— bee^ received.indicating that the opinion will be that it is absolutely legal to use these funds in the manner proposed; in addition, con- siderable legislation is pending before the State of California which may render this use of tax increment funds mandatory. The opinion will contain a qualification related to use of Section 8 Funds to some extent for relocation purposes. It has been the intent in formulating the*Housing Authority that a better job in relocation assistance be accomplished by utilizing Section 8 Funds rather than tax increment funds under the Relocation Assistance Act. In the absence of the forthcoming written legal opinion, he recommended approval of the Financial Plan based on City funds, and at a later date, after . receipt of the legal opinion, a recommendation by the Community Redevelopment Commission for the use of tax increment funds would be submitted. Commissioner Seymour inquired when the Housing Commission, a recommending body, would be formulated. Mr. Fernald was of the opinion that this commission could be appointed at any time. He called attention to the need for an Advisory Committee for the Community Development Program and noted it has been suggested that one Housing and Community Development Advisory Committee might be able to execute both functions, the legality of which was being researched. Chairman Thom pointed out that matters could be further compli- cated by combining the two functions. Commissioner Seymour stated that he looked forward to receiving opinions from people involved in both activities, thereby resulting r-- in broader based citizen input.
