Properties served by inadequate infrastructure (Health and Safety Code Section 33492.11(a)(5)). Buildings that, when built, did not conform to local building, plumbing, mechanical, or electrical codes (Health and Safety Code Section 33492.11(a)(6)). These conditions are so substantial and prevalent within the Project Area that they have caused a lack of proper utilization of the Project Area to the extent that it constitutes a serious physical and economic burden on the community. Given the complexity and magnitude of problems and lack of other government resources, it is unrealistic to expect that these conditions can be alleviated or reversed by private enterprise or government action, or both, without redevelopment. The Redevelopment Plan is designed to provide an effective set of legal and financial tools and techniques that will enable the City, the Agency, and the Rough and Ready Island business community to build upon the strengths of the Port area while overcoming its adverse physical and economic conditions, to achieve the fundamental goals of the City of Stockton General Plan. The legal and financial tools and techniques authorized in this Plan shall be used in a manner that will preserve and capitalize upon the resources of the Port area to the maximum extent possible consistent with revitalization of the Project Area as envisioned in the General Plan. B.

Redevelopment of the Project Area in accordance with the General Plan, future specific or area plans, this Plan, and the Development Code, as they now exist or may hereafter be adopted or amended. The elimination of substandard buildings and those that conflict with uses proposed in the General Plan and the applicable City standards and guidelines, as they now exist or may hereafter be adopted or amended.
