Hello, welcome to the Tuesday, January 20th, 2026. Uh redevelopment agency meeting. It is 2.50. We'll get started. We're gonna start with open public comment. Okay, seeing none, we'll go on to the consent agenda. Any questions on the consent agenda? Any public comment on the consent agenda? How about a motion to approve the consent agenda? Councilwoman filling, like the water district. Thank you. Um, board chair. Um I will make a motion to approve the consent agenda. Councilwoman Gallow. I'll second. Okay, call for the vote. Right, any public comment? NSI. Galloway. Galloway. Okay, item 3.1. Martine. Thank you, board chair and board members. Um, as the redevelopment agency director, I wanted to give you an update on the new RDA 2.0 and how much money is in there. Um as of December through December, it was 2,914,69 and 26 cents. Less encumbrances uh of 128,590 for the demolition, 17,613 or the rebuild to the house, and that's for the condor straight home. Um anyway, resulting in about 2.8 million dollars. So on the next agenda item regarding the pool items. So that'll bring us down to about two and a half million dollars. So I just wanted to give you an update on where we stand. Thank you. Thank you, Martin. Randy. Uh I guess board chair, not mayor. Is that how that works? I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. Uh so we're requesting from the RDA funding the 300 plus thousand dollars for we have that ongoing pool project, which they just filled the pool uh this last week. We're really close to finishing that. We have a health inspection uh first week of February to try to finish that project off. What this consists of is replacing the heaters for the outdoor pool, taking out the grass and trees to keep the debris from in the uh falling in the new pool area and putting big large shade structures for more shade areas for families. Um, and that kind of coexists with just trying to keep everything up to date as far as the new drains, pumps, controllers, all that, just trying to keep it clean. So that's the request of the 300,000 plus for the RDA. Ask you a question. Sure. You're gonna do some of the removal work and stuff yourself because that seems pretty cheap. Yeah, we are. So in-house with our parks department, we're gonna go in there and try to remove some of the grass and trees. Uh so we kind of bid it out that way. We're gonna do as much as we can in-house to save that some of that money, and then we contracted whatever else we couldn't do.
