Governed by the San Jose City Council who serve as the Redevelopment Agency Board, the SJRA partners with business and the community to revitalize the economy in San Jose. The SJRA is the largest tax increment producing redevelopment agency in California and is active in 22 Project Areas throughout San Jose. SJRA Project Areas represent approximately 25 percent of the City\'s area and provide almost 40 percent of San Jose jobs. Through a balanced series of investments and initiatives, the SJRA facilitates and oversees comprehensive programs for development to revitalize the City\'s Downtown , Neighborhoods , and Industrial areas. View SJRA\'s fact sheet Redevelopment Works Why is redevelopment important to California\'s future? Redevelopment was created by the State to assist local governments in revitalizing their communities. The California Community Redevelopment Law, contained in the California Health and Safety Code beginning with Section 33000 et seq., provides cities and counties the authority, scope, and financial means to stimulate economic conditions and leverage private investment in urban areas by establishing a redevelopment agency. Redevelopment encourages new development, creates jobs and generates tax revenues in declining urbanized areas by developing partnerships between local government and the private sector. Redevelopment plans are locally created and adopted to respond to the community\'s needs and vision. Over 400 California cities and counties have adopted local redevelopment plans. California continues to grow in both jobs and population. While this growth provides tremendous opportunities, it also provides many challenges including lack of housing, strains on our infrastructure, and drains on the economy and tax base. If not properly directed, this growth could sprawl outward into undeveloped areas while allowing urbanized areas to decline. Redevelopment enables communities to build on what already exists. It enhances and expands local businesses, renovates declining housing stock and improves public infrastructure. It also encourages new housing development and attracts businesses to locate within already developed areas. It builds communities, helps reduce crime and long commutes, promotes affordable housing, and preserves the environment. (Adapted from the California Redevelopment Association Community Guide to Redevelopment ) Organization Directed by the Redevelopment Agency Board, the SJRA Executive Director oversees executive staff including two Deputy Directors and 10 divisions. The SJRA also has an internal general counsel managed by the City Attorney. SJRA staff have expertise in development, planning, engineering, architecture, real estate, property management, finance, marketing and public and governmental affairs. Administration & Parking This division manages all SJRA administrative services including Human Resources and Information Technology as well as Downtown Parking Management. Communications & Community Relations This division manages and facilitates all internal and external communications including written publications, website development, media and community relations. It also coordinates all SJRA celebratory events. Downtown Management This division facilitates private development and SJRA program implementation—including small business assistance—in the Downtown. Finance This division manages SJRA finances and is responsible for producing the SJRA budget and financial statements. General Counsel Provides the SJRA with legal support for contracts, development agreements, litigation, and administrative services under the direction of the Office of the City Attorney. Housing/Real Estate This division facilitates the development of all types of housing, for all income levels, manages SJRA-owned property, and real estate activities including acquisition. Industrial Development This division facilitates the attraction and retention of San Jose companies, and manages redevelopment projects and economic development programs in five technology parks. Neighborhood & Business Development This division manages the SJRA Neighborhood Business District and Neighborhood Business Cluster programs and assists in the implementation of the citywide Strong Neighborhood Initiative (SNI). Project Management This division oversees all phases of construction and provides architectural and design support for SJRA projects.
