VIII, ATTAINMENT OF THE PURPOSES OF THE REDEVELOPMENT LAW The purposes of the Redevelopment Law are to protect and promote the sound development and redevelopment of blighted areas and the general welfare of the inhabitants of the communit:-s in which they exist. The Project Area is characterized by conditions which cause a reduction of, or lack of,proper utilization of the area to such an extent that it constitutes a serious physical and economic burden on the City of Redlands which cannot reasonably be expected to be reversed or alleviated by private enterprise acting alone. The purposes of the Redevelopment Law would be attained "through, among other things: (1) the elimination of environmental deficiencies, including, among others, small and irregular lots, incompatible land uses, obsolete and aged buildings and deteriorated public improvements; (2) the assemblage of land into parcels suitable for modern integrated development with improved pedestrian and vehicular circulation; (3)the replanning, redesign and development of undeveloped or underdeveloped areas which are stagnant or improperly utilized; and (4)the participation of owners and tenants in the revitalization of their properties. Redevelopment of the Project Area would also attain the purposes of the Redevelopment Law by stimulating construction activity and increasing employment opportunities. IX. CONFORMANCE TO THE GENERAL PLAN OF THE CITY This Preliminary Plan conforms to the General Plan of the City of Redlands. The Preliminary Plan proposes the same pattern of uses as the General Plan. X. GENERAL IMPACT OF THE PROJECT UPON THE RESIDENTS AND SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOODS The impact of the redevelopment project upon residents of the proposed Project Area, and the surrounding neighborhood will be positive and, in general, will be in the areas of improved public facilities, and environmental quality, increased employment opportunities and economic development. Agency activities in the Project Area may include property acquisition, demolition of structures, construction of public improvements and land disposition for private development. The long-term impacts upon residents in the area will be positive due to the elimination of Page 2 12126\0002\624854.1 conditions of blight. Redevelopment of the proposed Project Area will provide for the improvement, modernization, planning, development, replanning, redesign, reconstruction, and rehabilitation of the proposed Project Area, and the provision of residential, commercial, industrial, public and other structures and open spaces in the interest of the general welfare.
