Nothing in this part dissolves or otherwise affects the authority of a community redevelopment commission, other than in its authority to act as a redevelopment agency, in its capacity as a housing authority or for any other community development purpose of the jurisdiction in which it operates. For those other nonredevelopment purposes, the community development commission derives its authority solely from federal or local laws, or from state laws other than the Community Redevelopment Law (Part 1 (commencing with Section 33000)).
(2) A community in which an agency has been dissolved under this section may not create a new agency pursuant to Part 1 (commencing with Section 33000), Part 1.5 (commencing with Section 34000), Part 1.6 (commencing with Section 34050), or Part 1.7 (commencing with Section 34100). However, a community in which the agency has been dissolved and the successor entity has paid off all of the former agency’s enforceable obligations may create a new agency pursuant to Part 1 (commencing with Section 33000), Part 1.5 (commencing with Section 34000), Part 1.6 (commencing with Section 34050), or Part 1.7 (commencing with Section 34100), subject to the tax increment provisions contained in Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 34194.5) of Part 1.9 (commencing with Section 34192).
(b) All authority to transact business or exercise powers previously granted under the Community Redevelopment Law (Part 1 (commencing with Section 33000) is hereby withdrawn from the former redevelopment agencies.
(c) Solely for purposes of Section 16 of Article XVI of the California Constitution, the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund shall be deemed to be a special fund of the dissolved redevelopment agency to pay the principal of and interest on loans, moneys advanced to, or indebtedness, whether funded, refunded, assumed, or otherwise incurred by the redevelopment agency to finance or refinance, in whole or in part, the redevelopment projects of each redevelopment agency dissolved pursuant to this part.
(d) Revenues equivalent to those that would have been allocated pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 16 of Article XVI of the California Constitution shall be allocated to the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund of each successor agency for making payments on the principal of and interest on loans, and moneys advanced to or indebtedness incurred by the dissolved redevelopment agencies. Amounts in excess of those necessary to pay obligations of the former redevelopment agency shall be deemed to be property tax revenues within the meaning of subdivision (a) of Section 1 of Article XIII A of the California Constitution.
