Senate Bill SB 107
In September 2015, the State of California approved Senate Bill No. 107 (SB 107) which guides the final technical steps in the dissolution of local redevelopment agencies. SB 107 made several changes related to Oversight Boards. The legislation calls for counties with more than 40 Oversight Boards (i.e., Los Angeles County) to be consolidated into one of five Oversight Boards. The five consolidated Oversight Board shall have jurisdiction over each Successor Agency located within its borders.
The five County Oversight Boards will have the authority to oversee and direct the Successor Agencies to wind down activities and expeditiously liquidate the assets of the former redevelopment agencies. SB 107 provides that the Oversight Board for a particular Successor Agency will cease to exist when the Successor Agency has been formally dissolved.
