The Director of Finance is required to determine an amount each redevelopment agency shall transfer to the Education Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF).

In accordance with the above requirements, the attached document provides the amount determined for your redevelopment agency. Each agency must allocate the specified amount to the county auditor for deposit into the ERAF on or before May 10, 2006. By March 1, the legislative body shall report to the county auditor how the agency intends to remit the amount required, or that the legislative body intends to remit the amount in lieu of the agency pursuant to Section 33681.14 of the Health and Safety Code. If the legislative body, pursuant to Section 33681.12 of the Health and Safety Code, reported to the county auditor that it intended to remit the amount in lieu of the agency and the legislative body fails to transmit the full amount as authorized by May 10 of the applicable fiscal year, the county auditor, no later than May 15 of the applicable fiscal year, shall transfer an amount necessary to meet the obligation from the legislative body's allocations pursuant to Chapter 6 (commencing with Section 95) of Part 0.5 of Division 1 of the Revenue and Taxation Code.
