Health & Saf. Code, § 33492.87

(a) (1) Notwithstanding Section 33334.2 or any other provision of law, the agency established or governed pursuant to this article may annually defer the requirement to allocate 20 percent of tax-increment revenue to the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund for a period of up to 5 years after the date on which the county auditor makes the certification pursuant to Section 33492.9.

(2) The agency shall not defer its allocation in any year unless it first adopts a finding based on substantial evidence that the vacancy rate for rental housing affordable to lower income households within the jurisdiction of the members of the agency is greater than 4 percent.

(3) The amount of the deferral, if any, shall be considered an indebtedness of the agency and shall be paid into the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund no later than the end of the 10th fiscal year after the date on which the county auditor makes the certification pursuant to Section 33492.9. If the indebtedness is not eliminated by the end of the 10th fiscal year, the county auditor or controller shall, no later than March 15 of the 11th year, withhold an amount equal to the indebtedness and deposit those funds into a separate Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund for use by the redevelopment agency to meet its affordable housing requirements pursuant to this part.

(b) The agency shall not be required to replace barracks or dormitory-style housing or Arnold Heights housing that is adaptively reused, demolished, or removed within the boundaries of March Air Force Base.
