Section 33387 of the CRL refers to the consultations with the PAC, if any. There is no existing PAC for any of the existing Project Areas, On March 15, 2004, the City Council by Resolution No. 2004 -017, found and determined that the proposed Amendments do not include a provision to grant additional authority to acquire by eminent domain or add territory to the existing Project Areas; therefore, a Project Area Committee was not required to be formed in connection with the proposed Amendments (Appendix C). In lieu of a PAC, the Agency will consult with and obtained the advice of property owners, business owners, tenants, community organizations, and other interested parties at a community information meeting to be held on August 10, 2004 at 6:00 p, m.

Copies of the meeting notice and a summary of the meeting will be included within a supplement to this Report prior to the adoption of the proposed Amendments. It is anticipated that the community information meeting will consist of a presentation including an overview of redevelopment in Santa Ana, and the purposes of the proposed Amendments, followed by a comment, question and answer session. Copies of the Owner Participation Rules, Existing Plans, proposed Amendments and map of the Project Areas will be available for review. The Agency and the City Council will also consult and obtain the advice of property owners and occupants on the adoption of the Amendments at a joint public hearing scheduled for September 7, 2004.
