To: Successor to the Contra Costa County Redevelopment Agency

Report Title: ROPS 2026-27
?Recommendation of the County Administrator ? Recommendation of Board Committee
RECOMMENDATIONS:
ADOPT a resolution approving the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule ("ROPS 26-27") for the period of July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027.
