Notes re. Existing Structure CCDC, SEDC, & City Redevelopment Division carry out redevelopment under contract to Redevelopment Agency CCDC & SEDC = independent corporations, wholly owned by City Mayor appoints Board Members of CCDC & SEDC (with Council approval); fiduciary responsibility is to the corp., not the public Complexity of structure leads to public confusion, lack of transparency, & inconsistent policies and standards Inherent conflict for Mayor (as Agency Exec. Director) and City Attorney (as Agency Legal Counsel) to be subservient to the City Council (as Agency Board) No staff directly accountable to Agency Board to advise & assist June 2009
