Mr. Nowak gave the staff report .
In response to Chair Hunter, Mr. Kueny explained that the
pass-through agreement between the Redevelopment Agency
and the Moorpark Unified School District required the
Agency to make a payment of $750, 000, which would be paid
at the later of either: 1) the sale of the lower fields
at Casey Road, or 2) School District maintenance facility
construction. He stated the issue was that the later of
the two events has not occurred.
Chair Hunter stated the School Board' s contention is that
they are not in control of the sale of the property as
surplus, which may require some time . He also stated that
the District wanted the money to pay debt .

In response to Chair Hunter, Mr. Kueny stated the City
had suggested a two-year period and that the District has
not responded. He stated action on the agreement could
not be taken under the Budget agenda item, but could be
included on a future agenda.
Agency Member Harper discussed the District' s financial
difficulties . He indicated support to release the money
to the School District with no discount . He stated it
may be possible for the City to hold an option on the
property as a condition of the release of the funding.
Agency Member Rodgers stated she could support release of
the funds, but with a discount for early release .
Agency Member Evans stated he would support setting aside
funds to repay the money to the District, with discussion
of the agreement at a future meeting.
In response to Chair Hunter, Mr. Kueny stated the
argument for retaining the money would be determined by
what the Agency could do with the money.
In response to Chair Hunter, Mr. Nowak stated the
proposed budget did not allocate funds for repayment to
the District, but that reserve money could be reallocated
for that specific purpose .
Chair Hunter suggested the School District agreement be
placed on the July 7, 1999 agenda for consideration.
Councilmember Evans requested that the agreement be
placed on the July 21, 1999 agenda, since not all Agency
Members would be present on July 7 .

the matter on the July 21, 1999 agenda for consideration.
