Three Named to L.A. Successor Agency
When the City of Los Angeles voted against becoming the Successor Agency to the Community Redevelopment Agency of Los Angeles (CRA/LA), it fell to Governor Jerry Brown to choose the three local residents to fill the roll of Successor Agency. Under the provisions of ABx1 26, which dissolved all California redevelopment agencies as of February 1, the new appointees will form a “designated local authority” that will assume certain duties associated with the terminated CRA/LA. These duties include disposing of agency assets, paying existing bond debt and assuming control over the previous redevelopment agency staff.
Governor Brown appointed Timothy McOsker, Nelson Rising and Mee Semcken to serve as the Successor Agency to the CRA/LA.
For more information about each of the appointees, as well as the appointees in Merced, Stanislaus and Ventura Counties, please see the Governor’s press release here.
