34186. (a) (1) Differences between actual payments and past estimated obligations on recognized obligation payment schedules shall be reported in subsequent Recognized Obligation Payment Schedules and shall adjust the amount to be transferred to the Redevelopment Obligation Retirement Fund pursuant to this part. These estimates and accounts, as well as cash balances, shall be subject to review by the county auditor-controller. The county auditor-controller’s review shall be subject to the department’s review and approval.
(2) Audits initiated by the Controller pursuant to this section prior to July 1, 2015, shall be continued by the Controller and completed no later than June 30, 2016. Nothing in this section shall be construed in a manner which precludes, or in any way restricts, the Controller from conducting audits of successor agencies pursuant to Section 12410 of the Government Code.
(b) Differences between actual passthrough obligations and property tax amounts and the amounts used by the county auditor-controller in determining the amounts to be allocated under Sections 34183 and 34188 for a prior six-month or annual period, whichever is applicable, shall be applied as adjustments to the property tax and passthrough amounts in subsequent periods as they become known. County auditor-controllers shall not delay payments under this part to successor agencies or taxing entities based on pending transactions, disputes, or for any other reason, other than a court order, and shall use the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule approved by the department and the most current data for passthroughs and property tax available prior to the statutory distribution dates to make the allocations required on the dates required.
(c) Commencing on October 1, 2018, and each October 1 thereafter, the differences between actual payments and past estimated obligations on a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule shall be submitted by the successor agency to the county auditor-controller for review. The county auditor-controller shall provide to the department in a manner of the department’s choosing a review of the differences between actual payments and past estimated obligations, including cash balances, no later than February 1, 2019, and each February 1 thereafter.
(Amended by Stats. 2015, Ch. 325, Sec. 17. (SB 107) Effective September 22, 2015.)
