Summary
Under existing law, 2 or more public agencies may enter into an agreement to jointly exercise any power common to the contracting parties, as specified. This bill would provide that the Santa Clara Stadium Authority, a joint powers agency formed by the City of Santa Clara and the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Santa Clara, has the authority to acquire, finance, construct, manage, maintain, and operate a stadium and related facilities suitable for use by a professional football team, in addition to the powers common to the city and the redevelopment agency. The bill prohibits the redevelopment agency from expending property tax increment revenues to operate or maintain the stadium. This bill would authorize the Santa Clara Stadium Authority to let a design-build contract without utilizing a competitive bid process for the stadium construction project, if, among other requirements, a ballot measure endorsing the development of a stadium suitable for use by a professional football team is approved by voters in a citywide election, the design-build contract does not require expenditures from the general fund of the City of Santa Clara, and the design-build contract is not funded by contributions from the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Santa Clara or a community facilities district except as provided in the bill. The bill would provide that redevelopment agency funds and community facilities district funds may be used to fund subcontracts awarded pursuant to a competitive bidding process established by the joint powers agency. This bill would provide that for state highway improvement projects deemed necessary by the Department of Transportation based on the construction and maintenance of the stadium, the department is the responsible agency for project development services, as specified.
