Jerry Brown makes the concept of redevelopment in Martinez iffy
Thu, 01/06/2011 - 10:01 — thomsma
Jerry Brown is expected to propose eliminating redevelopment agencies and use the money that has been diverted to offset state budget costs for one year and then give the money to counties and schools thereafter. Martinez City Council members, who are in the midst of trying to create an RDA, are not happy about this proposal. Here at OPEN Martinez, Governor Brown's proposal is a validation that redevelopment is a plan that won't work in Martinez.
