The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Funding Amount may be less than the actual cost of the Project. Nevertheless, the Parties acknowledge and agree that WRCOG shall not be obligated to contribute TUMF Program Funds in excess of the maximum TUMF share identified in the TUMF Nexus Study ("Maximum TUMF Share"), as may be amended from time to time.
3. Project Costs Eligible for Advance/Reimbursement.

5. Procedures for Distribution of TUMF Program Funds to AGENCY. (a) Initial Payment by the AGENCY. The AGENCY shall be responsible for initial payment of all the Project costs as they are incurred. Following payment of such Project costs, the AGENCY shall submit invoices to WRCOG requesting reimbursement of eligible Project costs.

19-PS-BEA-1204
and confer in an attempt to resolve the dispute. If the meet and confer process is unsuccessful in resolving the dispute, the AGENCY may appeal WRCOG's decision as to the eligibility of one or more invoices to WRCOG's Executive Director. The WRCOG Executive Director shall provide his/her decision in writing. If the AGENCY disagrees with the Executive Director's decision, the AGENCY may appeal the decision of the Executive Director to the full WRCOG Executive Committee, provided the AGENCY submits its request for appeal to WRCOG within ten (10) days of the Executive Director's written decision. The decision of the WRCOG Executive Committee shall be final. Additional details concerning the procedure for the AGENCY's submittal of invoices to WRCOG and WRCOG's consideration and payment of submitted invoices are set forth in Exhibit "B", attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

6. Increases in Project Funding. The Funding Amount may, in WRCOG's sole discretion, be augmented with additional TUMF Program Funds if the TUMF Nexus Study is amended to increase the maximum eligible TUMF share for the Project. Any such increase in the Funding Amount must be approved in writing by WRCOG's Executive Director. In no case shall the amount of TUMF Program Funds allocated to the AGENCY exceed the then -current maximum eligible TUMF share for the Project. No such increased funding shall be expended to pay for any Project already completed. For purposes of this Agreement, the Project or any portion thereof shall be deemed complete upon its acceptance by WRCOG's Executive Director which shall be communicated to the AGENCY in writing.
7. No Funding for Temporary Improvements. Only segments or components of the construction that are intended to form part of or be integrated into the Project may be funded by TUMF Program Funds. No improvement which is temporary in nature, including but not limited to temporary roads, curbs, tapers or drainage facilities, shall be funded with TUMF Program Funds, except as needed for staged construction of the Project.
8. AGENCY's Funding Obligation to Complete the Project. In the event that the TUMF Program Funds allocated to the Project represent less than the total cost of the Project, the AGENCY shall provide such additional funds as may be required to complete the Project.

Except as otherwise expressly excepted within this paragraph, in the event that: (i) the AGENCY, for any reason, determines not to proceed with or complete the Project; or (ii) the Project is not timely completed, subject to any extension of time granted by WRCOG pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; the AGENCY agrees that any TUMF Program Funds that were distributed to the AGENCY for the Project shall be repaid in full to WRCOG, and the Parties shall enter into good faith negotiations to establish a reasonable repayment schedule and repayment mechanism. If the Project involves work pursuant to a PA&ED phase,

19-PS-BEA-1204
AGENCY for any expenditures, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by the AGENCY, in defending against claims ultimately determined to be due to negligent acts, errors or omissions or willful misconduct of WRCOG.
(c) Effect of Acceptance. The AGENCY shall be responsible for the professional quality, technical accuracy and the coordination of any services provided to complete the Project. WRCOG's review, acceptance or funding of any services performed by the AGENCY or any other person or entity under this Agreement shall not be construed to operate as a waiver of any rights WRCOG may hold under this Agreement or of any cause of action arising out of this Agreement. Further, the AGENCY shall be and remain liable to WRCOG, in accordance with applicable law, for all damages to WRCOG caused by the AGENCY's negligent performance of this Agreement or supervision of any services provided to complete the Project.

FROM: Lisa Leach, CPA Assistant Finance Director
DATE December 19, 2023
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2023 Popular Annual Financial Report Description Receive and file the City's Fiscal Year End 2023 Popular Annual Financial Report.
Background and Analysis:
On November 30th, the Finance and Audit Committee was presented with the draft FY2023 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR). The Finance and Audit Committee recommended the ACFR be presented to Council on December 19, 2023, in final form. The ACFR presents the financial statements of the City in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and audited in accordance with governmental auditing standards (GAS). To meet the diverse information needs of different users, an ACFR typically presents voluminous data at a high level of detail.
Due to the high level of detail and technical language within the ACFR it is recommended that governments produce a Popular Annual Financial Report (PAFR) to supplement the ACFR. This allows readers to receive selected information provided within the ACFR in a manner that is engaging and easy to understand for all users.
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) provides guidance within its PAFR program that governments can use to create reports that show a government's commitment to increase the involvement of citizens and other interested parties. The report presented follows the GFOA guidance and criteria established within PAFR awards program.
Fiscal Impact:
The following report provides data that has already occurred and does not have fiscal impact to the current budget. Staff estimates the cost to prepare this staff report is approximately $350.
Recommended Action:
Receive and file the City's Fiscal Year End 2023 Popular Annual Financial Report.

MESSAGE FROM THE
FINANCE DIRECTOR
JENNIFER USTATION
To the Citizens of the City of Beaumont:
Welcome to the City of Beaumont's Popular Annual Financial Report (PAFR), for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023. Our PAFR provides an overview of the City's financial position in a manner that is easy to understand and provides a brief analysis of where the City's revenues are derived and where those dollars are spent. The information in this report is based on the audited results presented in the City's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR).
It is important to note, this PAFR is unaudited and is presented on a non-GAAP basis*. This means the presentation of financial data in this report differs from the GAAP basis presentation in the City's ACFR.
II hope you find this report helpful and encourage you to access the City's website ( www.beaumontca.gov) or contact Finance at (951) 572- 3236 for more detailed information about the City's finances.
Jennifer Ustation

"Beaumont is a vibrant city whose charm is exceeded only by the remarkable people who call it home. While times have changed, the friendliness and hospitality that recall a simpler era have not. In Beaumont, residents enjoy a way of life that includes not only the charming characteristics ofa small town but all the amenities ofa dynamic suburban environment."
About the City
Beaumont has a rich history and is nestled in the foothills of the San Bernardino National Forest. Originally settled in the mid -1800s as a stop along the Southern Pacific Railroad, people drawn to the beautiful mountain views, crisp air and abundance of apple orchards remained in the area and City of Beaumont was incorporated on November 18, 1912.
Beaumont's continued growth can be attributed to its desirable location and its reputation as an affordable community that offers a high quality of life. Local officials, supported by engaged community members, have worked tirelessly to prepare for a sustainable future and a vibrant community. Exceptional public services that are provided for the community include community -oriented public safety, an excellent school system, and 18 scenic parks and recreation areas, ensuring that Beaumont is a great place to live, work and explore.

THE CITY'S FINANCIAL POSITION
The Statement of Net Position presents information about the financial position of the City; much like a balance sheet does for a corporation. It represents the difference between all of its assets (what the City owns) and its liabilities (what the City owes) on an accrual basis. It is an indication of the City's financial health at the end of the fiscal year. Over time, increases or decreases in the City's net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, the Citywide net position improved by $20.5 million. The assets of the City exceeded its liabilities by $538.2 million (net position).

Year 2023. A five-year history of the long-term debt for governmental and business -type activities shows the City has been reducing debt levels over time since 2019.

NET PENSION LIABILITY
Substantially all City employees working the equivalent of 1,000 hours per fiscal year are eligible to participate in multiple -employer defined benefits plans administered by California Public Employees Retirement System (CaIPERS). The City currently offers two plans: the Safety Plan for public safety employees (i.e., Police employees) and the Miscellaneous Nan for all other city employees.
The largest impact on the City's long-term financial stability relates to the increase in pension costs from CaIPERS. Per the most recent CaIPERS annual valuation report, the funded status (the percentage of assets available to meet the total projected benefits payments) for the Safety and Miscellaneous Plans was 77.49% and 89.57%, respectively. The total net pension liability as of June 30, 2023 totaled $23.9 million. The net pension liability for each plan as of the last two fiscal year end dates is shown below:

Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Elizabeth Gibbs, City Manager
DATE December 19, 2023
SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing the Issuance of Community Facilities District No. 2021-1 (Fairway Canyon) Special Tax Bonds, Series 2024 (the "2024 Bonds")
Description Adopt a resolution authorizing the issuance of its Special Tax Bonds, Series 2024 in a principal amount not to exceed sixteen million dollars ($16,000,000) and approving certain documents and taking certain other actions in connection therewithin.
Background and Analysis:
The City of Beaumont ("City") formed Community Facilities District No. 2021-1 (Fairway Canyon) ("District") on June 1, 2021, for the purpose of financing various public improvements and services required in connection with the proposed development within the District. On June 1, 2021, an election was held within the District at which the landowners eligible to vote approved the issuance of bonds in an amount not -to -exceed $19,500,000. Such bonds are secured by special taxes levied on property within the District.
The District comprises a portion of a master -planned community known as "Fairway Canyon." At buildout, Fairway Canyon is expected to consist of 3,300 residential units with 46 acres of commercial and industrial land uses and the balance set aside for public and quasi -public uses. As of November 1, 2023, the master developer of the property within Fairway Canyon, SDC Fairway Canyon, LLC ("Developer"), estimates that approximately 2,350 homes within Fairway Canyon have been completed and sold to individual homeowners.
The District, which is located west of the 10 freeway, east of Tukwet Canyon Parkway and north of Oak Valley Parkway, is planned for 529 single family homes at buildout.
The Developer has sold all property within the District to three merchant builders:
Woodside 05S LP ("Woodside"), D.R. Horton of Los Angeles Holding Company, Inc. ("DR Horton"), and Richmond American Homes of Maryland, Inc. ("Richmond American"). As of November 1, 2023, building permits (i.e. "Developed Property") had
been issued for 520 homes within the District. As of such date, 419 homes have been completed and conveyed to individual homeowners and Woodside, DR Horton and Richmond American owned 40, 23 and 47 lots, respectively.

The aggregate value of the property within the District subject to the Special Tax levy is $240,762,396. Based on the estimated principal amount of the bonds ($14,190,000), the District -wide value -to -lien ratio is approximately 13.45 to 1.
Discussion
Based on market conditions as of November 29, 2023, the 2024 Bonds are expected to be issued in a par amount of $14,190,000. Proceeds from the 2024 Bonds will be used primarily to reimburse the Developer for the cost of completing facilities within the District. A description of such facilities, which include but are not limited to sewer system improvements, storm drain improvements, dry utilities infrastructure, street improvements, and park improvements, is provided in the Preliminary Official Statement. After the issuance of the 2024 Bonds, future parity bonds may be issued only for refunding purposes.
Assuming City Council approves the resolution this evening, the 2024 Bonds are expected to price on or around January 10, 2024, and close approximately two weeks later. Provided in the table below are estimated financing statistics relating to the 2024 Bonds, as well as the projected special tax levy on homes within the District. As required under Section 5852.1 of the California Government Code, good faith estimates have been provided to the City by Urban Futures, Inc., the Municipal Advisor in
consultation with Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, as underwriter of the 2024 Bonds as Attachment A.
Select Financing and Levy Statistics
Par Amount $14,190,000
True Interest Rate 5.32%
Average Annual Debt (Principal and Interest) Payments $932,808 Total Debt (Principal and Interest) Payments $28,549,119 Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax Levy Rate Per Developed $1,401 to Property $2,159
Based on market conditions as of November 29, 2023
The Fiscal Year 2024-25 special tax levy rate per developed property ranges from $1,408 to $2,169, depending on the size of the home. Such tax will not increase over time.
In addition to authorizing the issuance of the 2024 Bonds, the Resolution approves forms of the Preliminary Official Statement, the Bond Indenture, the Bond Purchase Agreement, and the Continuing Disclosure Certificate.
• Preliminary Official Statement: The Preliminary Official Statement (the "POS") is the "offering document" for the 2024 Bonds. It provides a description of the District, the 2024 Bonds, the proposed development within District, and any other information that would be material to a prospective investor's decision on whether to purchase the 2024 Bonds. The POS also contains the SEC mandated disclosure related to the Cease and Desist Order and the Beaumont Financing Authority's compliance history with its continuing disclosure undertakings. While the City's financing team (bond and disclosure counsel, consultants, and the underwriter) have participated in preparing the POS, City Council and staff are ultimately responsible for ensuring that the offering document is accurate, contains no misleading information and does not omit any information necessary to make the document not misleading to investors. As part of its obligations under federal securities laws, Council should review the Preliminary Official Statement.
• Bond Indenture: The Bond Indenture contains terms of the 2024 Bonds including, but not limited to, the payment and redemption provisions, the pledge of revenues to pay the 2024 Bonds, rights and duties of the Trustee, remedies upon a default in the payment of the 2024 Bonds, and other related matters. The agreement is entered into between the District and Zions Bancorporation, National Association, as the appointed Trustee for the 2024 Bonds.
• Continuing Disclosure Certificate: Executed for the benefit of bondholders, the Continuing Disclosure Certificate obligates the District to file an annual report each Fiscal Year which includes, among other things, the most recent audited financial statements of the City and financial data relating to the District. The District is also required to report certain events which are significant to bondholders if and when they occur.
• Bond Purchase Agreement: Pursuant to the Bond Purchase Agreement, the City agrees to sell the 2024 Bonds to the underwriter and the underwriter agrees to purchase the 2024 Bonds, subject to typical closing conditions. City staff, the City's municipal advisor, and bond counsel will sign off on the final pricing of the 2024 Bonds prior to the execution of the Bond Purchase Agreement.
Bond Counsel and the City Attorney have reviewed the attached financing documents on behalf of the City. If the Resolution is approved, City staff will continue to work with the financing team to finalize all of the aforementioned documents. As previously mentioned, the 2024 Bonds are expected to price on or around January 10, 2024 and close two weeks later.
Fiscal Impact:
The 2024 Bonds are paid from special taxes levied in the District. There is no fiscal impact to the City's General Fund. The City will, however, be required to provide administration for the District, which is funded as part of the annual special tax levy.
As previously mentioned, the Fiscal Year 2024-25 special tax levy rate per developed property ranges from $1,401 to $2,159, depending on the square footage of the home.
Such tax will not increase over time.
All figures herein are preliminary and subject to prevailing market conditions at the time of sale.
Recommended Action:
Waive the full reading and adopt by title only, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Beaumont, Acting as the Legislative Body of the City of Beaumont Community Facilities District No. 2021-1 (Fairway Canyon), Authorizing the Issuance of Its 2024 Special Tax Bonds, in an Aggregate Principal Amount Not to Exceed Sixteen Million Dollars ($16,000,000) and Approving Certain Documents and Taking Certain Other Actions in Connection Therewith".

GOOD FAITH ESTIMATES
The good faith estimates set forth herein are provided with respect to the 2024 Bonds in accordance with California Government Code Section 5852.1.

Principal Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, based on the City's financing plan, its good faith estimate of the aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Bonds to be sold is $14,190,000 (the "Estimated Principal Amount").
True Interest Cost of the Bonds. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the respective Estimated Principal Amount of the 2024 Bonds is sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the true interest cost of the 2024 Bonds, which means the rate necessary to discount the amounts payable on the respective principal and interest payment dates to the purchase price received for the 2024 Bonds, is 5.32%.
Finance Charge of the Bonds. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the 2024 Bonds is sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the finance charge for the 2024 Bonds, which means the sum of all fees and charges paid to third parties (or costs associated with the 2024 Bonds), is $412,850. Additionally, there will be an annual Trustee fee of $2,000 for as long as the 2024 Bonds are outstanding.
Amount of Proceeds to be Received. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming the Estimated Principal Amounts of the 2024 Bonds is sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the amount of proceeds expected to be received by the City for sale of the 2024 Bonds, less the finance charge of the 2024 Bonds, as estimated above, and any reserves or capitalized interest paid or funded with proceeds of the 2024 Bonds, is $12,905,397.
Total Payment Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the 2024 Bonds is sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such

Additionally, there will be an annual Trustee fee of $2,000 for as long as the 2024 Bonds are outstanding.
The foregoing estimates constitute good faith estimates only and are based on market conditions prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimates. The actual principal amount of the 2024 Bonds issued and sold, the true interest cost thereof, the finance charges thereof, the amount of proceeds received therefrom and total payment amount with respect thereto may differ from such good faith estimates due to (a) the actual date of the sale of the 2024 Bonds being different than the date assumed for purposes of such estimates, (b) the actual principal amount of 2024 Bonds sold being different from the respective Estimated Principal Amount, (c) the actual amortization of the 2024 Bonds being different than the amortization assumed for purposes of such estimates, (d) the actual market interest rates at the time of sale of the 2024 Bonds being different than those estimated for purposes of such estimates, (e) other market conditions, or (f) alterations in the City's financing plan, or a combination of such factors. The actual date of sale of the 2024 Bonds and the actual principal amount of 2024 Bonds sold will be determined by the City based on various factors. The actual interest rates borne by the 2024 Bonds will depend on market interest rates at the time of sale thereof. The actual amortization of the 2024 Bonds will also depend, in part, on market interest rates at the time of sale thereof. Market interest rates are affected by economic and other factors beyond the control of the City.

The District
General. The District is located in the northwestern portion of the City of Beaumont (the "City") and is located to the west of the Interstate 10 freeway, east of Tukwet Canyon Parkway and north of Oak Valley Parkway. The development in the District is part of the master -planned community in the City known as "Fairway Canyon."
SDC Fairway Canyon, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "Developer"), is the master developer of the property within Fairway Canyon, including the District. The Developer has sold all of the property planned for residential development within the District to three merchant builders: Woodside 05S, LP, a California limited partnership ("Woodside"); D.R. Horton Los Angeles Holding Company, Inc., a California corporation ("D.R. Horton"); and Richmond American Homes of Maryland, Inc., a Maryland corporation Preliminary, subject to change.
1 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
("Richmond American"). The Developer no longer owns any property in the District that is subject to the Special Tax (as defined herein) levy.
The property in the District is planned for 529 single family homes at buildout. As of November 1, 2023, 419 homes within the District have been completed and conveyed to individual homeowners. As of such date, Woodside, D.R. Horton and Richmond American owned 40, 23 and 47 lots, respectively, in the District in various stages of construction. As of November 1, 2023, building permits had been issued for 520 of the 529 planned homes in the District.
The backbone infrastructure necessary to complete the development in the District has been completed and the in -tract infrastructure has been substantially completed. The merchant builders within the District expect to complete the remaining in -tract infrastructure for their respective projects commensurate with the timing for completion of the remaining planned homes. See the captions "PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENTS —The Project —The Developer" for more information regarding Argent Management, and see the captions "PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT —The Developments" and "—The Merchant Builders" for more information regarding the merchant builders.
The District is part of "Fairway Canyon." At buildout, Fairway Canyon is expected to consist of approximately 3,300 residential units on approximately 1,556 acres of land, with 46.4 acres of commercial/industrial land uses and the balance set aside for public/quasi/public uses. As of November 1, 2023, the Developer estimates that approximately 2,350 homes within Fairway Canyon have been completed and sold to individual homeowners.
Formation Proceedings. The District was formed by the City pursuant to the Act and constitutes a governmental entity separate and apart from the City.
The Act was enacted by the California legislature to provide an alternative method of financing certain public capital facilities and services, especially in developing areas of the State. Any local agency (as defined in the Act) may establish a community facilities district to provide for and finance the cost of eligible public facilities and services. Generally, the legislative body of the local agency which forms a community facilities district acts on behalf of such district as its legislative body. Subject to approval by two-thirds of the votes cast at an election and compliance with the other provisions of the Act, a legislative body of a local agency may issue bonds for a community facilities district and may levy and collect a special tax within such district to repay such indebtedness.
Pursuant to the Act, the City formed the District on June 1, 2021. Subsequent to a noticed public hearing on June 1, 2021, the City Council adopted resolutions which established the District, authorized the levy of special taxes within the District, determined the necessity to incur bonded indebtedness within the District, and called an election within the District on the proposition of incurring bonded indebtedness, levying special taxes and setting an appropriations limit within the District.
On June 1, 2021, an election was held within the District at which the landowners eligible to vote approved the issuance of bonds for the District in an amount not to exceed $19,500,000 and approved a rate and method of apportionment of special tax for the District (the "Rate and Method"). A copy of the Rate and Method is attached hereto as Appendix A.

THE ACHIEVEMENT OF CERTAIN RESULTS OR OTHER EXPECTATIONS CONTAINED IN
SUCH FORWARD -LOOKING STATEMENTS INVOLVE KNOWN AND UNKNOWN RISKS,
UNCERTAINTIES AND OTHER FACTORS WHICH MAY CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS,
PERFORMANCE OR ACHIEVEMENTS DESCRIBED TO BE MATERIALLY DIFFERENT FROM ANY
FUTURE RESULTS, PERFORMANCE OR ACHIEVEMENTS EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED BY SUCH FORWARD -LOOKING STATEMENTS. THE DISTRICT DOES NOT PLAN TO ISSUE ANY UPDATES
OR REVISIONS TO THE FORWARD -LOOKING STATEMENTS SET FORTH IN THIS OFFICIAL STATEMENT.
Sources of Payment for the Bonds
General. The Bonds and any Parity Bonds are limited obligations of the District, and the interest on and principal of and redemption premiums, if any, on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds are payable solely from the Special Taxes to be levied annually against the property in the District. To the extent necessary, the interest on and principal of and redemption premiums, if any, on the Bonds may be paid from the moneys on deposit in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount. As described herein, the Special Taxes are collected along with ad valorem property taxes on the tax bills mailed by the Treasurer -Tax Collector of the County of Riverside (the "County").
Although the Special Taxes will constitute a lien on the property subject to taxation in the District, they will not constitute a personal indebtedness of the owners of such property. There is no assurance that such owners will be financially able to pay the annual Special Taxes or that they will pay such taxes even if they are financially able to do so.
Limited Obligations. Except for the Special Taxes, no other taxes are pledged to the payment of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds. The Bonds and any Parity Bonds are not general or special obligations of the City nor general obligations of the District, but are special obligations of the District payable solely from Special Taxes collected in the District and amounts held under the Indenture as more fully described herein.
Special Tax. As used in this Official Statement, the term "Special Tax" refers to the "Special Tax for Facilities" (as defined in the Rate and Method) which has been authorized pursuant to the Act to be levied against certain land within the District pursuant to the Act and in accordance with the Rate and Method, including any scheduled payments and any Prepayments thereof, the net proceeds of the redemption or sale of property sold as a result of foreclosure of the lien of the Special Taxes to the amount of said lien and penalties and interest thereon; excluding, however, any delinquent Special Tax sold to an independent third -party or to the City for 100% of the delinquent amount. See "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS —Special Taxes" and APPENDIX A —"RATE AND METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAX." Under the Indenture, the District will pledge to repay the Bonds and any Parity Bonds from the Special Tax revenues remaining after the payment of annual Administrative Expenses of the District up to the Administrative Expenses Cap (the "Net Taxes") and from amounts on deposit in the Special Tax Fund established under the Indenture.
The Special Taxes are the primary security for the repayment of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds. In the event that the Special Taxes are not paid when due, the only sources of funds available to pay the debt service on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds are amounts held by the Trustee in the Special Tax Fund, and with respect to the Bonds, the amounts held in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount. See "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS -2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount of the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund." The Special Tax was first levied in Fiscal Year 2022-23. See Table 7 herein under the caption "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT —Delinquency History" for more information related to the Fiscal Years 2022-23 and 2023-24 Special Tax levies.

DISTRICT —Delinquency History" and "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS —Special Tax Delinquencies" and "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS —Insufficiency of Special Taxes." 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount. The Indenture creates a 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount in the Reserve Account for the Bonds. In order to secure further the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds, the District is required, upon delivery of the Bonds, to deposit in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount an amount equal to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement and thereafter to maintain in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount an amount equal to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement. The initial 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement shall be $ , and the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement shall never exceed this amount. See "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS -2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount of the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund."
Foreclosure Proceeds. The District will covenant in the Indenture for the benefit of the owners of the Bonds and Parity Bonds that it will: (i) commence judicial foreclosure proceedings against parcels with delinquent Special Taxes in excess of $2,500 by the December 1 following the close of each Fiscal Year in which such Special Taxes were due; (ii) commence judicial foreclosure proceedings against all parcels with delinquent Special Taxes by the December 1 following the close of each Fiscal Year in which it receives Special Taxes in an amount which is less than 95% of the total Special Tax levied; and (iii) diligently pursue such foreclosure proceedings until the delinquent Special Taxes are paid; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the District may elect to defer foreclosure proceedings on any parcel so long as the amount in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount is at least equal to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement and the amount in all other Subaccounts of the Reserve Account is at least equal to the applicable Reserve Requirement. See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS — Special Taxes —Proceeds of Foreclosure Sales." There is no assurance that the property within the District can be sold for the appraised or assessed values described herein, or for a price sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds in the event of a default in payment of Special Taxes by the current or future property owners within the District. See the caption "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS —Property Values."
The District does not participate in the County's Alternative Method of Distribution of Tax Levies and Collections and of Tax Sale Proceeds (the "Teeter Plan"); accordingly, the collection of Special Taxes is subject to delinquency. See "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS —No Teeter Plan."
NEITHER THE FAITH AND CREDIT NOR THE TAXING POWER OF THE DISTRICT, THE
CITY, THE COUNTY OF RIVERSIDE, THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF IS PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS. EXCEPT FOR THE SPECIAL TAXES, NO OTHER TAXES ARE PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS. THE

See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS — Issuance of Parity Bonds." Other taxes and/or special assessments with liens equal in priority to the continuing lien of the Special Taxes may also be levied in the future on the property within the District, which could adversely affect the willingness of the landowners to pay the Special Taxes when due. See the captions "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT — Direct and Overlapping Debt" and "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness."
Liens. Other taxes and/or special assessments with liens equal in priority to the continuing lien of the Special Taxes have been levied and may also be levied in the future on the property within the District which could adversely affect the willingness of the landowners to pay the Special Taxes when due. See "SPECIAL 4 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026

Appraisal Report
Integra Realty Resources (the "Appraiser") has conducted an appraisal (the "Appraisal Report") with a date of value of November 1, 2023 (the "Date of Value") of the property in the District subject to the Special Tax to provide an estimate of the market value of the such property. The Appraisal Report provides an estimate of the approximate market value of the property in the District subject to the Special Tax in its current condition, assuming that development of the property as currently planned will consist of 529 single-family detached residential units.
To arrive at the estimated value of the property in the District subject to the Special Tax, the Appraiser applied the following methodology: (i) for 291 completed single family homes owned by individual homeowners and five completed model homes owned by the merchant builders, as shown on the County Assessor's roll as of January 1, 2023, the Appraiser used the Fiscal Year 2023-24 assessed values assigned by the County (totaling $156,232,396); and (ii) for the property relating to the remaining 233 planned or completed homes in the District, the Appraiser appraised such property using the methodology as described under "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT —Appraisal Report." The property described in part (ii) of the foregoing sentence is referred to in this Official Statement as the "Appraised Property." Based on the assumptions and limiting conditions in the Appraisal Report, the Appraiser concluded that the minimum market value of the Appraised Property was $84,530,000 as of the Date of Value. The total estimated value of the property based on the foregoing assessed and appraised values is $240,762,396.
The Appraisal Report is based upon a variety of assumptions and limiting conditions that are described in Appendix H. The City, the District and the Underwriter make no representations as to the accuracy of the Appraisal Report. See "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT —Appraisal Report" and "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT —Value-to-Lien Ratios." There is no assurance that property within the District can be sold for the prices set forth in the Appraisal Report or that any parcel can be sold for a price sufficient to pay the Special Tax for that parcel in the event of a default in payment of Special Taxes by the landowner. See "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT," "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS —Property Values," "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS —Impact of Economic Conditions on the Development in the District" and APPENDIX H —"APPRAISAL REPORT" herein.

Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360 -day year comprised of twelve 30 -day months. The Bonds will be issued in fully registered form in denominations of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof.
Interest on any Bond will be payable from the Interest Payment Date next preceding the date of authentication of such Bond, unless: (i) such date of authentication is an Interest Payment Date, in which event interest will be payable from such date of authentication; (ii) the date of authentication is after the fifteenth day of the month preceding an Interest Payment Date, regardless of whether such day is a Business Day (each, a "Record Date") but prior to the immediately succeeding Interest Payment Date, in which event interest will be 7 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
payable from the Interest Payment Date immediately succeeding the date of authentication; or (iii) the date of authentication is prior to the close of business on the first Record Date occurring after the issuance of such Bond, in which event interest will be payable from the dated date of such Bond, as applicable; provided, however, that if at the time of authentication of such Bond, interest is in default, interest on such Bond will be payable from the last Interest Payment Date to which the interest has been paid or made available for payment or, if no interest has been paid or made available for payment on such Bond, interest on such Bond will be payable from its dated date.
Interest on any Bond will be paid to the person whose name appears as its owner in the registration books held by the Trustee on the close of business on the Record Date. Principal of, and premium, if any, due upon redemption is payable upon presentation and surrender of the Bonds at the designated principal corporate trust office of the Trustee in Costa Mesa, California.

If the District purchases Term Bonds during the Fiscal Year immediately preceding one of the sinking fund redemption dates specified above, the District will notify the Trustee at least 45 days prior to the redemption date as to the principal amount purchased, and the amount purchased will be credited at the time of purchase to the next Sinking Fund Payment for the Term Bond so purchased, to the extent of the full principal amount of the purchase. All Term Bonds purchased will be cancelled pursuant to the Indenture.
In the event of a partial optional redemption or special mandatory redemption of the Term Bonds, each of the remaining Sinking Fund Payments for such Term Bonds will be reduced, as nearly as practicable, on a pro rata basis.

The Bonds are subject to special mandatory redemption as a whole or in part on a pro rata basis among maturities and by lot within a maturity, on any Interest Payment Date on or after September 1, 2024, and will be redeemed by the Trustee, from any amounts paid by the District to the Trustee and designated by the District as a prepayment of Special Taxes for one or more parcels in the District made in accordance with the Rate and Method (the "Prepayments") deposited to the Redemption Account pursuant to the Indenture, plus amounts transferred from the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount pursuant to the Indenture, at the following redemption prices, expressed as a percentage of the principal amount to be redeemed, together with accrued interest to the redemption date:

See the caption "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS —Potential Early Redemption of Bonds from Prepayments or Other Sources" for a discussion of the potential for a lower -than -expected yield on the Bonds as a result of a special mandatory redemption from prepayment of Special Taxes or proceeds of bonds of other community facilities districts.
Notice of Redemption. So long as the Bonds are held in book -entry form, notice of redemption will be sent by the Trustee to DTC and not to the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds under the DTC book -entry only system. Neither the District nor the Trustee is responsible for notifying the Beneficial Owners, who are to be notified in accordance with the procedures in effect for the DTC book -entry system. See Appendix F — "BOOK - ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM."
The Trustee will give notice, in the name and at the expense of the District, of the redemption of Bonds.
Such notice of redemption will: (i) specify the CUSIP numbers (if any), the bond numbers and the maturity date or dates of the Bonds selected for redemption, except that where all of the Bonds are subject to redemption, or all of the Bonds of one maturity are to be redeemed, the bond numbers of such issue need not be specified; (ii) state the date fixed for redemption and surrender of the Bonds to be redeemed; (iii) state the redemption price; (iv) state the place or places where the Bonds are to be redeemed; (v) in the case of Bonds to be redeemed only in part, state the portion of such Bond which is to be redeemed; (vi) state the date of issue of the Bonds as originally issued; (vii) state the rate of interest borne by each Bond being redeemed; and (viii) state any other descriptive information needed to identify accurately the Bonds being redeemed as specified by the Trustee.
Such notice will further state that on the date fixed for redemption, there will become due and payable on each Bond, or portion thereof called for redemption, the principal thereof, together with any premium, and interest accrued to the redemption date, and that from and after such date, interest thereon will cease to accrue and be payable. At least 30 days but no more than 45 days prior to the redemption date, the Trustee will mail a copy of such notice of redemption, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the respective Owners thereof at their addresses appearing on the Bond Register, and to the original purchaser of any Bonds; provided, however, so long as the Bonds are registered in the name of the Nominee, such notice shall be given in such manner as complies with the requirements of the Depository. The actual receipt by the Owner of any Bond of notice of such redemption is not a condition precedent to redemption, and neither the failure to receive nor any defect in such notice will affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of such Bonds, or the cessation of interest on the redemption date. A certificate by the Trustee that notice of such redemption has been given as provided in the Indenture will be conclusive as against all parties and the Owner is not entitled to show that he or she failed to receive notice of such redemption.
In addition to the foregoing notice, further notice will be given by the Trustee as set out below, but no defect in said further notice nor any failure to give all or any portion of such further notice will in any manner defeat the effectiveness of a call for redemption if notice thereof is given as above prescribed. 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
12
Each further notice of redemption will be sent not later than the date that notice of redemption is given to the Owners pursuant to the Indenture by first class mail or facsimile to the Depository and to any other registered securities depositories then in the business of holding substantial amounts of obligations of types comprising the Bonds and to one or more of the national information services that are in the business of disseminating notice of redemption of obligations such as the Bonds.
Upon the payment of the redemption price of any Bonds being redeemed, each check or other transfer of funds issued for such purpose will to the extent practicable bear the CUSIP number identifying, by issue and maturity, the Bonds being redeemed with the proceeds of such check or other transfer.
With respect to any notice of optional redemption of Bonds, such notice may state that such redemption is conditional upon the receipt by the Trustee on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption of moneys sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Bonds to be redeemed and that, if the District determines that such moneys will not be so received on or prior to the redemption date, said notice shall be of no force and effect and the Trustee shall not be required to redeem such Bonds. If any condition stated in the redemption notice for an optional redemption shall not have been satisfied on or prior to the redemption date:
(i) the redemption notice shall be of no force and effect, (ii) the District shall not be required to redeem such Bonds, (iii) the redemption shall not be made, and (iv) the Trustee shall within a reasonable time thereafter give notice to the persons in the manner in which the conditional redemption notice was given that such condition or conditions were not met and that the redemption was canceled.
Selection of Bonds for Redemption. If less than all of the Bonds Outstanding are to be redeemed, the portion of any Bond of a denomination of more than $5,000 to be redeemed will be in the principal amount of $5,000 or an integral multiple thereof. In selecting portions of such Bonds for redemption, the Trustee will treat such Bonds, as applicable, as representing that number of Bonds of $5,000 denominations which is obtained by dividing the principal amount of such Bonds to be redeemed in part by $5,000. The procedure for the selection of Parity Bonds for redemption may be modified as set forth in the Supplemental Indenture for such Parity Bonds. The Trustee will promptly notify the District in writing of the Bonds, or portions thereof, selected for redemption.
Partial Redemption of Bonds. Upon surrender of any Bond to be redeemed in part only, the District will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver to the Owner, at the expense of the District, a new Bond or Bonds of authorized denominations equal in aggregate principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Bonds surrendered, with the same interest rate and the same maturity.
Effect of Notice and Availability of Redemption Money. Notice of redemption having been duly given, as provided in the Indenture, and the amount necessary for the redemption having been made available for that purpose and being available therefor on the date fixed for such redemption: (i) the Bonds, or portions thereof, designated for redemption will, on the date fixed for redemption, become due and payable at the redemption price thereof as provided in the Indenture, anything in the Indenture or in the Bonds to the contrary notwithstanding; (ii) upon presentation and surrender thereof at the designated office of the Trustee, the redemption price of such Bonds will be paid to the Owners thereof; (iii) as of the redemption date the Bonds, or portions thereof so designated for redemption will be deemed to be no longer Outstanding and such Bonds, or portions thereof, will cease to bear further interest; and (iv) as of the date fixed for redemption no Owner of any of the Bonds, or portions thereof so designated for redemption will be entitled to any of the benefits of the Indenture, or to any other rights, except with respect to payment of the redemption price and interest accrued to the redemption date from the amounts so made available.
Registration, Transfer and Exchange
Registration. The Trustee will keep sufficient books for the registration and transfer of the Bonds. The ownership of the Bonds will be established by the Bond registration books held by the Trustee. 13 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
Transfer or Exchange. Subject to the limitations set forth in the following paragraph, the registration of any Bond may, in accordance with its terms, be transferred upon the Bond Register by the person in whose name it is registered, in person or by his or her duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of such Bond for cancellation at the office of the Trustee, accompanied by delivery of written instrument of transfer in a form acceptable to the Trustee and duly executed by the Owner or his or her duly authorized attorney.
Bonds may be exchanged at the office of the Trustee for a like aggregate principal amount of Bonds for other authorized denominations of the same maturity and issue. The Trustee may not collect from the Owner any charge for any new Bond issued upon any exchange or transfer, but will require the Owner requesting such exchange or transfer to pay any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange or transfer. Whenever any Bonds are surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, the District will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver a new Bond or Bonds, as applicable, of the same issue and maturity, for a like aggregate principal amount; provided that the Trustee is not required to register transfers or make exchanges of: (i) Bonds for a period of 15 days next preceding any selection of the Bonds to be redeemed; or (ii) any Bonds chosen for redemption.
SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS
Limited Obligations
The Bonds are special, limited obligations of the District payable only from amounts pledged under the Indenture and from no other sources.
The Special Taxes are the primary source of security for the repayment of the Bonds. Under the Indenture, the District has pledged to repay the Bonds from the Net Taxes (which are Special Tax revenues remaining after the payment of the annual Administrative Expenses in an amount not to exceed the Administrative Expenses Cap (as defined in the Indenture)) and from amounts held in the Special Tax Fund (other than amounts held in the Administrative Expense Account therein). Special Tax revenues include the proceeds of the annual Special Tax levy received by the District, including any scheduled payments and Prepayments thereof, and the net proceeds of the redemption of delinquent Special Taxes or sale of property sold as a result of foreclosure of the lien of delinquent Special Taxes to the amount of said lien, and penalties and interest thereon; provided that any delinquent Special Tax sold to an independent third -party or to the City for 100% of the delinquent amount will no longer be pledged under the Indenture to the payment of the Bonds or Parity Bonds.
In the event that the Special Tax revenues are not received when due, the only sources of funds available to pay the debt service on the Bonds are amounts held by the Trustee in the Special Tax Fund (other than the Administrative Expense Account therein), including amounts held in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount of the Reserve Account, to the limited extent described in the Indenture, for the exclusive benefit of the Owners of the Bonds.
NEITHER THE FAITH AND CREDIT NOR THE TAXING POWER OF THE CITY, THE COUNTY,
THE STATE OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF IS PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS. EXCEPT FOR THE NET TAXES, NO OTHER TAXES ARE PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS. THE BONDS ARE NOT GENERAL OR SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE CITY BUT ARE
LIMITED OBLIGATIONS OF THE DISTRICT PAYABLE SOLELY FROM THE NET TAXES AND OTHER AMOUNTS PLEDGED UNDER THE INDENTURE AS MORE FULLY DESCRIBED HEREIN.
Special Taxes
Authorization and Pledge. In accordance with the provisions of the Act, the City established the District on June 1, 2021 for the purpose of financing the various public improvements and services required in connection with the proposed development within the District.

District at which the landowners eligible to vote approved the issuance of bonds for the District in an amount not to exceed $19,500,000, secured by special taxes levied on property within the District to finance Facilities (as defined herein). The landowners within the District also voted to approve the Rate and Method which authorized the Special Tax to be levied to repay indebtedness issued for the benefit of the District, including the Bonds. Pursuant to the Rate and Method, the District is authorized to levy a "Special Tax for Public Services," a "Special Tax for Maintenance Services" and a "Special Tax for Maintenance Services (Contingent)." None of the foregoing taxes levied for services or maintenance are pledged to or available to pay debt service on the Bonds or any Parity Bonds. In this Official Statement, all references to the Special Tax shall refer to the amounts available from the Special Tax for Facilities (as defined in the Rate and Method).
The District will covenant in the Indenture that each year it will levy Special Taxes up to the maximum rates permitted under the Rate and Method in an amount sufficient, together with other amounts on deposit in the Special Tax Fund, to pay the principal of and interest on any Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds, to replenish the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement and any other Subaccount of the Reserve Account to the applicable Reserve Requirement, and to pay Administrative Expenses.
The Special Taxes are collected in the manner and at the same time as ad valorem property taxes are collected and are subject to the same penalties and the same procedure, sale, and lien priority in case of delinquency as is provided for ad valorem property taxes. See APPENDIX A —"RATE AND METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAX."
The "Net Taxes" pledged by the District to the Bonds (and any Parity Bonds) is defined in the Indenture as the "Gross Taxes" minus amounts permitted to be set aside prior to the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds and Parity Bonds in order to pay Administrative Expenses up to the Administrative Expenses Cap.
The Administrative Expenses Cap shall be $30,000 annually. "Gross Taxes" is defined in the Indenture as the amount of all Special Taxes received by the District together with the proceeds collected from the sale of property pursuant to foreclosure for the delinquency of such Special Taxes remaining after the payment of all costs related to such foreclosure actions.
Except for Prepayments, which will be deposited to the Redemption Account of the Special Tax Fund, the Trustee will, on each date on which the Special Taxes are received from the District, deposit the Special Taxes in the Special Tax Fund to be held in trust for the Owners. The Trustee will transfer the Special Taxes on deposit in the Special Tax Fund on the dates, in the amounts and in the following order of priority, to:
First: To the Administrative Expense Account in an amount up to the Administrative Expenses Cap.
Second: To the Interest Account, an amount such that the balance in the Interest Account one Business Day prior to each Interest Payment Date is equal to the installment of interest due on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds on said Interest Payment Date and any installment of interest due on a previous Interest Payment Date which remains unpaid. Moneys in the Interest Account will be used for the payment of interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds as the same become due.
Third: To the Principal Account, an amount such that the balance in the Principal Account one Business Day prior to September 1 of each year, commencing September 1, 2024, is equal the principal payment due on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds maturing on such September 1 and any principal payment due on a previous September 1 which remains unpaid. Moneys in the Principal Account shall be used for the payment of the principal of such Bonds and any Parity Bonds as the same become due at maturity. 15 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
Fourth: To the Redemption Account, the amount needed to make the balance in the Redemption Account one Business Day prior to each September 1 on which a Sinking Fund Payment is due equal to the Sinking Fund Payment due on any Outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds on such September 1; provided, however, that, if amounts in the Special Tax Fund are inadequate to make the foregoing transfers, then any deficiency with respect to the Bonds shall be made up by an immediate transfer from the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount and any deficiency with respect to a series of Parity Bonds shall be made up by an immediate transfer from the Subaccount of the Reserve Account for such series of Parity Bonds, if funded, pursuant to the Indenture; and thereafter, to pay the principal and premium, if any, due in connection with an optional redemption of Bonds or Parity Bonds.
Fifth: To the Subaccounts of the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund, on a proportionate basis based on the outstanding principal amount of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds, to the extent necessary to replenish the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement and the Reserve Requirement with respect to Parity Bonds, if any.
Sixth: To the Administrative Expense Account of the Special Tax Fund the amount of any Administrative Expenses for the current Bond Year in excess of the Administrative Expenses Cap as directed by the City.
Seventh: To the Rebate Fund established by the Indenture to the extent directed by the City pursuant to the Indenture.
Eighth: To the Surplus Fund established by the Indenture such remaining amounts in the Special Tax Fund after making the foregoing transfers on September 1.
See APPENDIX D —"SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE BOND INDENTURE." The Special Taxes levied in any fiscal year may not exceed the maximum rates authorized pursuant to the Rate and Method. See APPENDIX A —"RATE AND METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAX" hereto. There is no assurance that the Special Tax proceeds will, in all circumstances, be adequate to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds when due. See the caption "—Limitation on Special Tax Levy and Potential Impact on Coverage" below and "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS —Insufficiency of Special Taxes" herein.
Rate and Method ofApportionment ofSpecial Tax. The District is legally authorized and will covenant to cause the levy of the Special Taxes in an amount determined according to a methodology, i.e., the Rate and Method which the City Council and the electors within the District have approved. The Rate and Method apportions the total amount of Special Taxes to be collected among the taxable parcels in the District as more particularly described below. Pursuant to the Rate and Method, the District is authorized to levy a "Special Tax for Public Services," a "Special Tax for Maintenance Services" and a "Special Tax for Maintenance Services (Contingent)." None of the foregoing taxes levied for services or maintenance are pledged to or available to pay debt service on the Bonds or any Parity Bonds. In this Official Statement, all references to the Special Tax shall refer to the amounts available from the Special Tax for Facilities (as defined in the Rate and Method).
The following is a synopsis of the provisions of the Rate and Method for the District, which should be read in conjunction with the complete text of the Rate and Method which is attached to this Official Statement as APPENDIX A —"RATE AND METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAX." The meaning of the defined terms used in this section are as set forth in Appendix A. This section provides only a summary of the Rate and Method, and is qualified by more complete and detailed information contained in the entire Rate and Method attached as Appendix A.
16 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
Maximum Special Tax. The Rate and Method imposes a different Maximum Special Tax for Facilities depending on whether such Developed Property, Final Map Property or Undeveloped Property. The Maximum Special Tax provided for in the Rate and Method is as follows:
Developed Property
The Maximum Special Tax for each Assessor's Parcel of Residential Property that is classified as Developed Property in any Fiscal Year shall be the amount determined by the greater of (i) the application of the Assigned Special Tax set forth in Table 1 below or (ii) the application of the Backup Special Tax.
Table 1 below sets forth the Assigned Special Tax per unit of Developed Property and Final Map Property by Tax Zone, the Fiscal Year 2024-25 projected Special Tax levy and the percent of such levy based on land use class. The District expects to levy the Special Tax only on Developed Property and not on Final Map Property in Fiscal Year 2024-25, however, the District has the ability to levy the Special Tax on Final Map Property under the Rate and Method if necessary to meet the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities.

Final Map Property and Undeveloped Property
The Maximum Special Tax for each Assessor's Parcel classified as Undeveloped Property and Final Map Property in any Fiscal Year shall be the Assigned Special Tax for such property. The Assigned Special Tax for Final Map Property for any Fiscal Year shall be $18,347 and $16,210 for Tax Zones 1 and 2, respectively.
As of November 1, 2023, assuming no additional building permits are issued, there will be nine parcels classified as Final Map Property in Tax Zones 1 and 2 in Fiscal Year 2024-25. There is no longer any Undeveloped Property in the District and there is no longer any Final Map Property in Tax Zones 3 and 4.
Backup Special Tax. Each Assessor's Parcel of Developed Property classified as Residential Property shall be subject to a Backup Special Tax. When a Final Map is recorded, the CFD Administrator shall determine which Zone the Final Map area lies within and the Backup Special Tax for a Parcel classified or to be classified as Residential Property within such Final Map shall be determined by multiplying the Undeveloped Property Maximum Special Tax rate per Acre for the applicable Zone by the total Acreage of Taxable Property within such Final Map, excluding the Acreage associated with Non -Residential Property, Public Property and/or Property Owners' Association Property that is not Exempt Property pursuant to the Rate and Method and dividing such amount by the number of Parcels within such Final Map classified as either (i) Developed Property or (ii) Final Map Property for which a Building Permit is expected to be issued for Residential Property (i.e., the number of residential lots).
Notwithstanding the forgoing, if Parcels classified or to be classified as Residential Property are subsequently changed or modified by recordation of a lot line adjustment or similar instrument, then the Backup Special Tax shall be recalculated for the area that has been changed or modified using the methodology described in the preceding paragraph.
The Backup Special Tax shall not apply to Non -Residential Property, Public Property, or Property Owners' Association Property.
Method of Apportionment of Special Tax. Pursuant to the Rate and Method the District is required to determine the "Special Tax Requirement for Facilities" for each Fiscal Year. The Special Tax Requirement for Facilities means the amount required in any Fiscal Year to pay: (i) the debt service or the periodic costs on all outstanding Bonds and Parity Bonds due in the Calendar Year that commences in such Fiscal Year, (ii) Administrative Expenses, (iii) the costs associated with the release of funds from an escrow account, (iv) any amount required to establish or replenish any reserve funds established in association with the Bonds and any Parity Bonds, (v) the collection or accumulation of funds for the acquisition or construction of facilities authorized by the District provided that the inclusion of such amount does not cause an increase in the levy of Special Tax for Facilities on Final Map Property or Undeveloped Property, less (vi) any amounts available to pay debt service or other periodic costs on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds pursuant to the Indenture.
For each Fiscal Year until terminated, the City Council will levy Special Taxes on all Taxable Property until the amount of Special Tax levied equals the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities in accordance with the following steps:
First: The Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each Assessor's Parcel of Developed Property at up to 100% of the applicable Assigned Special Tax rates as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities;
Second: If additional moneys are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after the first step has been completed, the Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each Assessor's Parcel of Final Map Property, at up to 100% of the Assigned Special Tax applicable to each such Assessor's Parcel as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities; 18 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
Third: If additional moneys are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after the first two steps have been completed, the Annual Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each Assessor's Parcel of Undeveloped Property, excluding any Undeveloped Property exempt from the Special Tax pursuant to Section J of the Rate and Method, at up to 100% of the Assigned Special Tax applicable to each such Assessor's Parcel as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities (there is no longer any Undeveloped Property in the District); Fourth: If additional moneys are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after the first three steps have been completed, then for each Assessor's Parcel of Developed Property whose Maximum Special Tax is the Backup Special Tax shall be increased Proportionately from the Assigned Special Tax up to 100% of the Backup Special Tax as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities; and
Fifth: If additional moneys are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after the first four steps have been completed, the Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each Assessor's Parcel of Property Owner's Association Property and Public Property, found not to be exempt pursuant to Section K of the Rate and Method, at up to 100% of the Maximum Special Tax applicable to each such Assessor's Parcel as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities.
Prepayment of Special Taxes. The Special Tax obligation of an Assessor's Parcel of Developed Property, an Assessor's Parcel of Final Map Property or Undeveloped Property, may be prepaid in full, provided that there are no delinquent Special Taxes, penalties, or interest charges outstanding with respect to such Assessor's Parcel at the time that the Special Tax obligation would be prepaid. In addition, the Special Tax obligation of an Assessor's Parcel of Developed Property, an Assessor's Parcel of Final Map Property or Undeveloped Property for which a building permit has been issued and will be classified as Developed Property in the next Fiscal Year may be prepaid in part.
The Prepayment Amount is calculated based on the Bond Redemption Amount, the Redemption Premium, the Future Facilities Amount, the Defeasance amount, the Administrative Fees, and less a credit for the resulting reduction in the Reserve Requirement for the Bonds (if any), all as specified in APPENDIX A — "RATE AND METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAX —Section H." No parcel within the District has prepaid its Special Tax obligation; accordingly, all parcels will be subject to the Special Tax levy going forward, subject to future Special Tax prepayments, if any.
Exempt Property. The City shall classify as Exempt Property (i) Assessor's Parcels defined as Public Property, (ii) Assessor's Parcels which are used as places of worship and are exempt from ad valorem property taxes because they are owned by a religious organization, (iii) Assessor's Parcels used exclusively by a Property Owner's Association, or (iv) Assessor's Parcels with public or utility easements making impractical their utilization for other than the purposes set forth in the easement. Notwithstanding the above, the City Council shall not classify an Assessor's Parcel as Exempt Property within a Zone if such classification would reduce the sum of the Taxable Property to less than the Minimum Acreage for that Zone, as defined in the Rate and Method.
Assessor's Parcels which cannot be classified as Exempt Property because such classification would reduce the Acreage of the Taxable Property to less than the Minimum Acreage per Zone will continue to be classified as Taxable Property, and will continue to be subject to Special Taxes accordingly.
Tax-exempt status will be assigned by the CFD Administrator in chronological order. If an Assessor's Parcel's classification is changed after the initial status is assigned, then its tax-exempt status will be revoked.
Estimated Debt Service Coverage. Based on development status as of November 1, 2023, 520 parcels within the District will be classified as Developed Property for the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy. Debt service for the Bond Year ending September 1, 2024 has been sized assuming that the Special Taxes are levied only on the 520 parcels with building permits issued as of November 1, 2024. Annual Debt Service for the Bonds in each Fiscal Year thereafter has been structured so that Assigned Special Taxes levied on all taxable 19 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
parcels of Developed Property at buildout (529 parcels), assuming no delinquencies, will generate in each Fiscal Year not less than 110% of debt service payable with respect to the Bonds in the calendar year that begins in that Fiscal Year, plus estimated Administrative Expenses, assuming that Special Taxes are levied and collected on such Developed Property in the District pursuant to the Rate and Method at the Assigned Special Tax rate.
Neither the Assigned Special Tax nor the Administrative Expenses escalate over time.
Limitation on Special Tax Levy and Potential Impact on Coverage. Pursuant to Section 53321(d) of the Government Code, the Special Tax levied against any Assessor's parcel for which an occupancy permit for private residential use has been issued shall not be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owner of any other Assessor's parcel within the District by more than 10% above the amount that would have been levied in that fiscal year had there never been any such delinquencies or defaults. As a result, it is possible that the District may not be able to increase the tax levy to the Assigned Special Tax in all years. In addition, under the Rate and Method, in no event shall the Special Tax be levied after Fiscal Year 2061-62.
Collection of Special Taxes. The Special Taxes are levied and collected by the Treasurer -Tax Collector of the County in the same manner and at the same time as ad valorem property taxes. The District may, however, collect the Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to meet its financial obligations.
The County assesses and collects secured and unsecured property taxes for the cities, school districts, and special districts within the County, including the Special Taxes for the District. The delinquency dates for property tax payments are December 10 for the first installment and April 10 for the second installment. Once the property taxes are collected, the County conducts its internal reconciliation for accounting purposes and distributes the City's share of such taxes (including the Special Taxes) to the City, periodically and typically pursuant to a published schedule. Prior to distribution, the moneys are deposited in an account established on behalf of the County in the Riverside County Investment Pool (the "Pool") which is invested by the County Treasurer -Tax Collector. If the County or the Pool were at any time to become subject to bankruptcy proceedings, it is possible that District property taxes held in the Pool (including the Special Taxes), if any, could be temporarily unavailable to the County. The District does not participate in the County's Teeter Plan, which is an alternate method for allocating property taxes by counties. Accordingly, the collection of Special Taxes is subject to delinquencies.
The Special Tax was first levied in Fiscal Year 2022-23. See Table 7 herein under the caption "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT —Delinquency History" for more information related to the Fiscal Years 2022-23 and 2023-24 Special Tax levies. No assurances can be made that Special Taxes will be collected in an amount required to make debt service payments on the Bonds. See "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT —Delinquency History" and "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS —Special Tax Delinquencies" and "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS —Insufficiency of Special Taxes." The District will make certain covenants in the Indenture for the purpose of ensuring that the current maximum Special Tax rates and method of collection of the Special Taxes are not altered in a manner that would impair the District's ability to collect sufficient Special Taxes to pay debt service on the Bonds and Administrative Expenses when due.
First, the District will covenant in the Indenture that it will take no actions that would discontinue or cause the discontinuance of the Special Tax levy or the District's authority to levy the Special Tax for so long as the Bonds and any Parity Bonds are Outstanding.
Second, the District will covenant in the Indenture, to the maximum extent that the law permits it to do so, not to initiate proceedings to reduce the maximum Special Tax rates for the District, unless, in connection therewith, the District receives a certificate from one or more Independent Financial Consultants which, when taken together, certify that: (i) such changes do not reduce the maximum Special Taxes that may be levied in each year on property within the District to an amount which is less than the Administrative Expense Cap plus 110% of the Annual Debt Service due in each corresponding future Bond Year with respect to the Bonds and 20 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
Parity Bonds Outstanding as of the date of such proposed reduction; and (ii) the District is not delinquent in the payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds or any Parity Bonds.
Third, the District will covenant in the Indenture that, in the event that any initiative is adopted by the qualified electors within the District which purports to reduce the maximum Special Tax below the levels specified in the preceding paragraph or to limit the power of the District to levy the Special Taxes for the purposes set forth in the Indenture, it will commence and pursue legal action in order to preserve its ability to comply with such covenants. The District can provide no assurance that any such legal action will be successful. See the caption "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Proposition 218."
Fourth, the District will covenant in the Indenture that it will not adopt any policy pursuant to the Act permitting the tender of Bonds or Parity Bonds in full payment or partial payment of any Special Taxes unless the District has first received a certificate from an Independent Financial Consultant that the acceptance of such a tender will not result in the District having insufficient Net Taxes to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds and Parity Bonds when due.
Although the Special Taxes constitute liens on taxed parcels within the District, they do not constitute a personal indebtedness of the owners of property within the District. Moreover, other liens for taxes and assessments already exist on the property located within the District and others could come into existence in the future in certain situations without the consent or knowledge of the City or the landowners in the District. See the captions "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT — Direct and Overlapping Debt" and "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness." There is no assurance that property owners will be financially able to pay the annual Special Taxes or that they will pay such taxes even if financially able to do so, all as more fully described under the caption "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS." Proceeds of Foreclosure Sales. The net proceeds received following a judicial foreclosure sale of property within the District resulting from a property owner's failure to pay the Special Taxes when due are included within the Net Taxes pledged to the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds under the Indenture.
Pursuant to Section 53356.1 of the Act, in the event of any delinquency in the payment of any Special Tax or receipt by the District of Special Taxes in an amount which is less than the Special Taxes levied, the City Council, as the legislative body of the District, may order that Special Taxes be collected by a Superior Court action to foreclose the lien within specified time limits. In such an action, the real property subject to the unpaid amount may be sold at a judicial foreclosure sale. Under the Act, the commencement of judicial foreclosure following the nonpayment of a Special Tax is not mandatory. However, the District will covenant in the Indenture for the benefit of the owners of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds that it will: (i) commence judicial foreclosure proceedings against parcels with delinquent Special Taxes in excess of $2,500 by the December 1 following the close of each Fiscal Year in which such Special Taxes were due; and (ii) commence judicial foreclosure proceedings against all parcels with delinquent Special Taxes by the December 1 following the close of each Fiscal Year in which it receives Special Taxes in an amount which is less than 95% of the total Special Tax levied; and (iii) diligently pursue such foreclosure proceedings until the delinquent Special Taxes are paid; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the District may elect to defer foreclosure proceedings on any parcel so long as the amount in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount is at least equal to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement and the amounts in all other Subaccounts of the Reserve Account is at least equal to the applicable Reserve Requirement.
The District will covenant in the Indenture that it will deposit the net proceeds of any foreclosure in the Special Tax Fund and will apply such proceeds remaining after the payment of Administrative Expenses to make current payments of principal and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds, to bring the amount on deposit in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount up to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement and the amount on deposit in any other Subaccount of the Reserve Account up to the applicable Reserve Requirement, and to pay any 21 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
delinquent installments of principal or interest due on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds. See APPENDIX D — "SUMMARY OF THE INDENTURE —COVENANTS AND WARRANTY —Covenants" herein.
If foreclosure is necessary and other funds (including amounts in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount) have been exhausted, debt service payments on the Bonds could be delayed unless the foreclosure proceedings produce sufficient net foreclosure sale proceeds. Judicial foreclosure actions are subject to the normal delays associated with court cases and may be further slowed by bankruptcy actions, involvement by agencies of the federal government and other factors beyond the control of the City and the District. See the caption "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS —Enforcement Delays — Bankruptcy." Moreover, no assurances can be given that the real property subject to foreclosure and sale at a judicial foreclosure sale will be sold or, if sold, that the net proceeds of such sale will be sufficient to pay any delinquent Special Tax installment. See the caption "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS —Property Values." Although the Act authorizes the District to cause such an action to be commenced and diligently pursued to completion, the Act does not impose on the District or the City any obligation to purchase or acquire any lot or parcel of property sold at a foreclosure sale if there is no other purchaser at such sale. The Act provides that, in the case of a delinquency, the Special Tax will have the same lien priority as is provided for ad valorem taxes.
No Teeter Plan
Although the Riverside County Board of Supervisors has adopted the Alternative Method of Distribution of Tax Levies and Collections and of Tax Sale Proceeds (the "Teeter Plan") which allows each entity levying secured property taxes in the County to draw on the amount of property taxes levied rather than the amount actually collected, as provided for in Section 4701 et seq. of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, the District is not included in the County Teeter Plan. Consequently, the District may not draw on the County Tax Loss Reserve Fund in the event of delinquencies in Special Tax payments within the District. 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount of the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund In order to secure further the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds, the District is required, upon delivery of the Bonds, to deposit in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount and thereafter to maintain in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount an amount equal to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement. The term "2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement" is defined in the Indenture to mean, that amount as of any date of calculation, equal to the lesser of: (i) 10% of the initial principal amount of the Bonds; (ii) Maximum Annual Debt Service on the then Outstanding Bonds; (iii) 125% of average Annual Debt Service on the then Outstanding Bonds; provided, however, that the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount shall not exceed $ . The Reserve Requirement may be satisfied in whole or in part by cash, a Reserve Policy (as defined in the Indenture), or a combination thereof. On the date of issuance of the Bonds, the District will deposit $ from proceeds of the Bonds into the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount to satisfy the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement.
The 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount only secures and the amounts therein are only available to pay the principal of, redemption premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds. In connection with the issuance of a series of Parity Bonds, if any, the District may establish an additional Subaccount within the Reserve Account which secures such series of Parity Bonds. Such additional Subaccounts within the Reserve Account established for Parity Bonds will not secure the Bonds.
Subject to the limits on the maximum annual Special Tax levy set forth in the Rate and Method and in the Indenture, the District will covenant in the Indenture to levy Special Taxes in an amount sufficient, in light of the other intended uses of the Special Tax proceeds, to maintain the balance in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount at the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement and any other Subaccount of the Reserve Account at the applicable Reserve Requirement. Amounts in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount are to be applied: (i) to pay debt service on the Bonds, including Sinking Fund Payments, to the extent that other monies are not available therefor; (ii) to redeem Bonds in the event of prepayment of Special Taxes, to optionally redeem Bonds or in connection with a partial defeasance of Bonds, in accordance with the Indenture; and (iii) to pay any rebate 22 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
requirements with respect to the Bonds. See Appendix D under the caption "CREATION OF FUNDS AND APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS —Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund.
Surplus Fund
After the transfer of Administrative Expenses to the Administrative Expense Fund up to the Administrative Expenses Cap, the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds when due, transfers to the Redemption Account to pay principal and premium, if any, on Bonds and any Parity Bonds called for redemption, transfers to replenish the subaccounts of the Reserve Account to the applicable Reserve Requirement and any required transfers to the Rebate Fund, as soon as practicable after each September 1, the Trustee shall transfer all remaining amounts in the Special Tax Fund to the Surplus Fund, unless on or prior to such date, it has received a Certificate of an Authorized Representative directing that certain amounts be retained in the Special Tax Fund because the District has included such amounts as being available in the Special Tax Fund in calculating the amount of the levy of Special Taxes for such Fiscal Year. Moneys deposited in the Surplus Fund may be transferred: (i) to the Interest Account, the Principal Account or the Redemption Account of the Special Tax Fund to pay the principal of, including Sinking Fund Payments, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds and any Parity Bonds when due in the event that moneys in the Special Tax Fund and the Subaccounts of the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund are insufficient therefor; (ii) to each Subaccount of the Reserve Account, on a proportionate basis based on the outstanding principal amount of the Bonds and any Parity Bonds, to replenish the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement, and to each other Subaccount of the Reserve Account to the applicable Reserve Requirement; (iii) to the Administrative Expense Account of the Special Tax Fund to pay Administrative Expenses to the extent that the amounts on deposit in the Administrative Expense Account of the Special Tax Fund are insufficient to pay Administrative Expenses; (iv) to the Acquisition and Construction Fund to pay Project Costs; or (v) after all Project Costs have been paid, to the District, for any other lawful purpose of the District.
The amounts in the Surplus Fund are not pledged to the repayment of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds and may be used by the District for any lawful purpose.
Issuance of Parity Bonds for Refunding Purposes Only
The District may at any time after the issuance and delivery of the Bonds under the Indenture issue Parity Bonds payable from the Net Taxes and other amounts deposited in the Special Tax Fund (other than in the Administrative Expense Account therein) and secured by a lien and charge upon such amounts equal to the lien and charge securing the Outstanding Bonds and any other Parity Bonds theretofore issued under the Indenture or under any Supplemental Indenture; provided, however, that Parity Bonds may only be issued for the purpose of refunding all or a portion of the Bonds or any Parity Bonds then Outstanding. Parity Bonds may be issued subject to additional specific conditions, which are made conditions precedent to the issuance of any such Parity Bonds by the Indenture. See Appendix D under the caption "DEFEASANCE AND PARITY BONDS."
THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT
General
The District is located in the northwestern portion of the City and is located to the west of the Interstate 10 freeway, east of Tukwet Canyon Parkway and north of Oak Valley Parkway. The Developer has sold all of the property planned for residential development within the District to three merchant builders: Woodside, D.R.
Horton and Richmond American.
The District is part of the master -planned community in the City known as "Fairway Canyon." At buildout, Fairway Canyon is expected to consist of approximately 3,300 residential units on approximately 1,556 acres of land, with 46.4 acres of commercial/industrial land uses and the balance set aside for public/quasi/public 23 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
uses. As of November 1, 2023, the Developer estimates that approximately 2,350 homes within Fairway Canyon have been completed and sold to individual homeowners.
Status of Development in the District
As of November 1, 2023, individual homeowners owned 419 homes (with another 34 homes in escrow to be conveyed to individual homeowners). As of such date, Woodside, D.R. Horton and Richmond American owned 40, 23 and 47 lots, respectively, in the District in various stages of construction. The backbone infrastructure necessary to complete the development in the District have been completed and the in -tract infrastructure has been substantially completed. The merchant builders within the District expect to complete the remaining in -tract infrastructure for their respective projects commensurate with the timing for completion of the remaining planned homes. See "PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT" below.
Description of Authorized Facilities
Certain facilities are authorized to be constructed and acquired (the "Facilities") by the District. These Facilities include, but are not limited to the following:
• Sewer system improvements
• Storm drain improvements
• Dry utilities infrastructure
• Street improvements
• Park Improvements
The Developer has completed, or has caused to be completed, all of the Facilities that are to be financed in part with the proceeds of the Bonds. The total cost of the Facilities was approximately $21,200,000, and the District estimates that approximately $12,600,000* will be paid to the Developer from the proceeds of the Bonds.
Property Values and the Appraisal
General. The extent to which the Special Tax provides security for the Bonds is, at least in part, a function of the value of each parcel of land within the District that is subject to the Special Tax because, in the event that a property owner defaults in the payment of the applicable Special Tax, such property owner will not have any personal liability for the payment of the Special Tax, and the principal remedy available to the District will be to take foreclosure proceedings with respect to the subject property.
Assessed Value. The assessed value of the property within the District represents the secured assessed valuation established by the County Assessor. Assessed values do not necessarily represent market values.
Article XIIIA of the California Constitution (Proposition 13) defines "full cash value" to mean "the County assessor's valuation of real property as shown on the 1975/76 roll under 'full cash value', or, thereafter, the appraised value of real property when purchased or newly constructed or when a change in ownership has occurred after the 1975 assessment," subject to exemptions in certain circumstances of property transfer or reconstruction. The "full cash value" is subject to annual adjustment to reflect increases, not to exceed 2% for any year, or decreases in the consumer price index or comparable local data, or to reflect reductions in property value caused by damage, destruction or other factors. Because of the general limitation to 2% per year in increases in full cash value of properties which remain in the same ownership, the County tax roll does not reflect values uniformly proportional to actual market values. There can be no assurance that the assessed valuations of the properties within the District accurately reflect their respective market values, and the future fair market values of those properties may be lower than their current assessed valuations. The Fiscal Year 2023-24 assessed value of the property in the District is $187,128,787.
Preliminary, subject to change.
24 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
Appraised Value. As a result of the requirements of Article XIIIA of the California Constitution, a property's assessed value is not necessarily indicative of its market value. In order to provide information with respect to the value of the property within the District, the City engaged Integra Realty Resources, the Appraiser, to prepare the Appraisal Report. The Appraiser has an "MAI" designation from the Appraisal Institute and has prepared numerous appraisals for the sale of land -secured municipal bonds. The Appraiser has no material relationships with the City, the District, the Developer or the owners of the land within the District other than the relationship represented by the engagement to prepare the Appraisal Report. The City instructed the Appraiser to prepare its analysis and report in conformity with City -approved guidelines and the Appraisal Standards for Land Secured Financings published in 1994 and revised in 2004 by the California Debt and Investment Advisory Commission. A copy of the Appraisal Report is included as APPENDIX H — "APPRAISAL REPORT" to this Official Statement.
The purpose of the Appraisal Report was to estimate the market value of the property within the District subject to the lien of the Special Taxes. With respect to 291 completed single family homes owned by individual homeowners and five completed model homes owned by the merchant builders, as shown on the County Assessor's roll as of January 1, 2023, the Appraiser used the Fiscal Year 2023-24 assessed values assigned by the County (totaling $156,323,396). In valuing the Appraised Property relating to the remaining 233 planned homes in the District, the Appraiser used a sales comparison approach for the completed single family homes and a land residual analysis for the remaining property to derive a value indication for the finalized lots within each tract adjusted by any costs to complete such finished lots.
Subject to the assumptions and limiting conditions set forth in the Appraisal Report, the Appraiser concluded that, as of the Date of Value (November 1, 2023), the estimated market value of the property within the District subject to the lien of the Special Taxes was $240,762,396, consisting of $156,323,396 of the 296 homes with improvement value shown on the Fiscal Year 2023-24 County Assessor's roll, and $84,530,000 of the appraised value of the Appraised Property relating to the remaining 233 homes. The estimate of market value takes into consideration and assumes the improvements to be funded with the proceeds of the Bonds have been installed.
Reference is made to Appendix H for a complete list of the assumptions and limiting conditions and a full discussion of the appraisal methodology and the basis for the Appraiser's opinions. In the event that any of the contingencies, assumptions and limiting conditions are not actually realized, the value of the property within the District may be less than the amount reported in the Appraisal Report. In any case, there can be no assurance that any portion of the property within the District would actually sell for the amount indicated by the Appraisal Report.
The Appraisal Report merely indicates the Appraiser's opinion as to the market value of the property referred to therein as of the date and under the conditions specified therein. The Appraiser's opinion reflects conditions prevailing in the applicable market as of the date of the Appraisal Report. The Appraiser's opinion does not predict the future value of the subject property, and there can be no assurance that market conditions will not change adversely in the future. See, for example, "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS —Impact of Economic Conditions on the Development in the District."
It is a condition precedent to the issuance of the Bonds that the Appraiser deliver to the District a certification to the effect that, while the Appraiser has not updated the Appraisal Report since its date and has not undertaken any obligation to do so, nothing has come to the attention of the Appraiser subsequent to the date of the Appraisal Report that would cause the Appraiser to believe that the value of the property that it appraised in the District is less than the value reported in the Appraisal Report. However, the Appraiser notes that acts and events may have occurred since the date of the Appraisal Report which could result in both positive and negative effects on market value within the District.

Value -to -Lien Ratios
Table 2 below incorporates the values assigned to parcels in the Appraisal Report, the estimated principal amount of the Bonds allocable to each category of parcels and the estimated assessed/appraised value - to -lien ratios for various categories of parcels based upon land values as of November 1, 2023, as set forth in the Appraisal Report. Based on the principal amount of the Bonds, the estimated assessed/appraised District -wide value -to -lien ratio including all Taxable Property as of April 10, 2023 is 16.97 -to -1 *. This ratio does not include other direct and overlapping debt within the District. See "—Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness" below.
Taking that direct and overlapping debt into account, the ratio of the aggregate assessed/appraised value of the Taxable Property within the District to the total principal amount of all direct and overlapping bonded debt for the District is approximately 13.45 -to -1*. The District expects to levy the Special Tax only on Developed Property and not on Final Map Property in Fiscal Year 2024-25, however, the District has the ability to levy the Special Tax on Final Map Property under the Rate and Method if necessary to meet the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities. The estimated appraised/assessed District -wide value -to -lien ratio of Developed Property as of November 1, 2023 is 16.82 -to -1*. This ratio does not include other direct and overlapping debt within the District. See "—Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness" below. Taking that direct and overlapping debt into account, the ratio of the aggregate assessed/appraised value of Developed Property within the District to the total principal amount of all direct and overlapping bonded debt for the District is approximately 13.33 -to -1 *.

Based on development status as of November 1, 2023, 520 parcels within the District will be classified as Developed Property for the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy. Debt service for the Bond Year ending September 1, 2024 has been sized assuming that the Special Taxes are levied only on the 520 parcels with building permits issued as of November 1, 2024. Annual Debt Service for the Bonds in each Fiscal Year thereafter has been structured so that Assigned Special Taxes levied on all taxable parcels of Developed Property at buildout (529 parcels), assuming no delinquencies, will generate in each Fiscal Year not less than 110% of debt service payable with respect to the Bonds in the calendar year that begins in that Fiscal Year, plus estimated Administrative Expenses, assuming that Special Taxes are levied and collected on such Developed Property in the District pursuant to the Rate and Method at the Assigned Special Tax rate.
Based on the principal amount of the Bonds, interest costs, Administrative Expenses being levied at the Administrative Expenses Cap, and Fiscal Year 2023-24 tax rates for all other taxing jurisdictions within the District, the total projected Fiscal Year 2024-25 average effective tax rate for Developed Property in the District as of November 1, 2023, is approximately 1.83% of the average assessed value for parcels with improvement value. The following Table 5 sets forth the estimated total tax obligation of property in the District based on the average home size and an average assessed value for a completed home in the District, as set forth in the Appraisal Report.

Delinquency History
For each Fiscal Year, the first installment of the Special Taxes becomes due on December 10 and the second installment becomes due on April 10. Special Taxes within the District were first levied in Fiscal Year 2022-23. Table 6 below summarizes the annual secured tax levy within the District and the amounts delinquent as of November 1, 2023 for Fiscal Year 2022-23. Future delinquencies could increase as a result of factors such as changes in the local or national economy, increases in the mortgage rates and/or increases in the unemployment rate in the area.

Top Taxpayers
As of November 1, 2023, individual homeowners owned 419 of the 529 planned homes in the District.
Based on ownership status and development status as of November 1, 2023, and assuming no additional transfers of property or issuance of building permits, individual homeowners are projected to be responsible for 80.6% of the Special Taxes projected to be levied on Developed Property in Fiscal Year 2024-25. Assuming no additional transfers of property or issuance of building permits after November 1, 2023, D.R. Horton, Woodside and Richmond are projected to be responsible for 4.5%, 7.2% and 7.7% of the projected Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy.
In Fiscal Year 2024-25, the District expects to levy the Special Tax only on the 520 parcels classified as Developed Property as of November 1, 2023 and not on the nine parcels of Final Map Property (which are owned by Richmond American), however, the District has the ability to levy the Special Tax on Final Map Property under the Rate and Method if necessary to meet the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities. The District is not aware of any individual, other than the merchant builders in the District, who owns more than one parcel within the District.
PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT
The information regarding the development and ownership of the Property contained under this caption, "PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT" has been provided by representatives of the Developer, D.R.

Fairway Canyon and the District
The development in the District is part of the master -planned community in the City known as "Fairway Canyon." At buildout, Fairway Canyon is expected to consist of approximately 3,300 residential units on approximately 1,556 acres of land, with 46.4 acres of commercial/industrial land uses and the balance set aside for public/quasi/public uses. As of November 1, 2023, the Developer estimates that approximately 2,350 homes within Fairway Canyon have been completed and sold to individual homeowners. 32 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
The Developer has completed, or has caused to be completed, all the backbone infrastructure necessary to complete the development in the District. The property in the District is planned for 529 single family homes at buildout. The Developer has conveyed all the property in the District planned for residential to three merchant builders. The Developer no longer owns any property in the District that is subject to the Special Tax. As of November 1, 2023, 419 homes within the District have been completed and conveyed to individual homeowners.
As of such date, Woodside, D.R. Horton and Richmond American owned 40, 23 and 47 lots, respectively, in the District in various stages of construction. The merchant builders within the District expect to complete the remaining in -tract infrastructure for their respective projects commensurate with the timing for completion of the remaining planned homes.

No assurance can be given that D.R. Horton's home construction and sales will be carried out on the schedule and according to the plans outlined herein, or that the home construction and sale plans or base prices set forth above will not change after the date of this Official Statement. Additionally, homes sold may not result in closed escrows as sales contracts are subject to cancellation. In changing market conditions, builders will often revise the product lines and prices and the rate of sales can fluctuate. D.R. Horton continuously evaluates its product lines and prices in light of the then current market conditions. See "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS" herein for a discussion of risk factors.
Financing Plan. Through November 1, 2023, D.R. Horton had spent approximately $61,570,764 in site acquisition and development costs, permits and impact fees, home construction costs, and other development, marketing and sales costs (exclusive of internal financing repayment, corporate overhead and other carry costs) related to its development within the District. D.R. Horton expects to spend approximately $5,324,329 in additional site development costs, permit and impact fees, home construction costs, and other development, marketing and sales costs (exclusive of corporate overhead and other carry costs) between November 1, 2023 and full build -out of its homes proposed to be constructed in the District. 34 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
To date, D.R. Horton has financed its land acquisition, site development and home construction costs related to its property within the District through internally generated funds. D.R. Horton expects to use internal funding (which may include home sales revenues from its project within the District) to complete its development activities within the District. However, home sales revenues from D.R. Horton's activities in the District are not segregated and set aside for completing the homes in the District. Notwithstanding the foregoing, D.R. Horton believes that it will have sufficient funds to complete its construction and sale of homes in the District.
Notwithstanding the current belief of D.R. Horton that it will have sufficient funds to complete its planned development in the District, no assurance can be given that sources of financing available to D.R. Horton will be sufficient to complete the property development and home construction as currently anticipated. Neither D.R. Horton nor any of its related entities are under any legal obligation of any kind to expend funds for the development and construction of homes on its property in the District, or the payment of ad valorem property taxes or the Special Taxes. Any contributions by D.R. Horton to fund the costs of such development are entirely voluntary.
If and to the extent that internal funding, including but not limited to home sales revenues are inadequate to pay the costs to complete the planned development by D.R. Horton within the District and other financing by D.R. Horton is not put into place, there could be a shortfall in the funds required to complete the planned development by D.R. Horton or to pay ad valorem property taxes or Special Taxes related to D.R. Horton's property in the District, and the remaining portions of D.R. Horton's project in the District may not be completed.
Many factors beyond D.R. Horton's control, or a decision by D.R. Horton to alter its current plans, may cause the actual sources and uses to differ from the projections. See "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS" herein for a discussion of risk factors.

Financing Plan. Through November 1, 2023, Richmond American had spent approximately $25 million in site acquisition and development costs, permits and impact fees, home construction costs, and other development, marketing and sales costs (exclusive of internal financing repayment, corporate overhead and other carry costs) related to its development within the District.

Many factors beyond Richmond American's control, or a decision by Richmond American to alter its current plans, may cause the actual sources and uses to differ from the projections. See "SPECIAL RISK FACTORS" herein for a discussion of risk factors.
SPECIAL RISK FACTORS
The purchase of the Bonds involves significant risks and is not an appropriate investment for all investors. The following is a discussion of certain risk factors which should be considered, in addition to other matters set forth herein, in evaluating the investment quality of the Bonds. The Bonds have not been rated by a rating agency. This discussion does not purport to be comprehensive or definitive and does not purport to be a complete statement of all factors which may be considered as risks in evaluating the credit quality of the Bonds.
The occurrence of one or more of the events discussed herein could adversely affect the ability or willingness of property owners in the District to pay their Special Taxes when due. Such failures to pay Special Taxes could result in the inability of the District to make full and punctual payments of debt service on the Bonds. In addition, the occurrence of one or more of the events discussed herein could adversely affect the value of the property in the District. See "—Property Values" and "—Limited Secondary Market." Concentration of Ownership
Based on ownership status and development status as of November 1, 2023, and assuming no additional transfers of property and issuance of building permits, approximately 80.6% of the Special Taxes projected to be levied in Fiscal Year 2024-25 will be payable by individual homeowners and the balance by the merchant builders as set forth in Table 2 above. Debt service for the Bond Year ending September 1, 2024 has been sized 40 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
assuming that the Special Taxes are levied only on the 520 parcels with building permits issued as of November 1, 2024. Annual Debt Service for the Bonds in each Fiscal Year thereafter has been structured so that Assigned Special Taxes levied on all taxable parcels of Developed Property at buildout (529 parcels), assuming no delinquencies, will generate in each Fiscal Year not less than 110% of debt service payable with respect to the Bonds in the calendar year that begins in that Fiscal Year, plus estimated Administrative Expenses, assuming that Special Taxes are levied and collected on such Developed Property in the District pursuant to the Rate and Method at the Assigned Special Tax rate.
Failure of individual homeowners, the merchant builders described herein, entities affiliated with the merchant builders or any successor(s), to pay the annual Special Taxes when due could result in a draw on the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund, and ultimately a default in payments of the principal of, and interest on, the Bonds, when due. No assurance can be given that the merchant builders or any successors, will complete the remaining intended construction and development in the District.
Risks of Real Estate Secured Investments Generally
The Bond Owners will be subject to the risks generally incident to an investment secured by real estate, including, without limitation: (i) adverse changes in local market conditions, such as changes in the market value of real property in the vicinity of the District, the supply of or demand for competitive properties in such area, and the market value of residential property or buildings and/or sites in the event of sale or foreclosure; (ii) changes in real estate tax rates and other operating expenses, governmental rules (including, without limitation, zoning laws and laws relating to endangered species and hazardous materials) and fiscal policies; (iii) natural disasters (including, without limitation, earthquakes, wildfires and floods), which may result in uninsured losses; (iv) adverse changes in local market conditions; and (v) increased delinquencies due to rising mortgage costs and other factors.
No assurance can be given that the property owners within the District will pay Special Taxes in the future or that they will be able to pay such Special Taxes on a timely basis. See the caption "— Enforcement Delays — Bankruptcy" for a discussion of certain limitations on the District's ability to pursue judicial proceedings with respect to delinquent parcels.
Limited Obligations
The Bonds and interest thereon are not payable from the general funds of the City. Except with respect to the Net Taxes, neither the credit nor the taxing power of the District or the City is pledged for the payment of the Bonds or the interest thereon, and, except as provided in the Indenture, no Owner of the Bonds may compel the exercise of any taxing power by the District or the City or force the forfeiture of any City or District property.
The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds are not a debt of the City or a legal or equitable pledge, charge, lien or encumbrance upon any of the City's or the District's property or upon any of the City's or the District's income, receipts or revenues, except the Net Taxes and other amounts pledged under the Indenture.
The District's legal obligations with respect to any delinquent Special Taxes are limited to: (i) payments from the Subaccounts of the Reserve Account to the extent of funds on deposit therein; and (ii) the institution of judicial foreclosure proceedings under certain circumstances with respect to any parcels for which Special Taxes are delinquent. See the caption "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS — Special Taxes — Proceeds of Foreclosure Sales." The Bonds cannot be accelerated in the event of any default.
The obligation to pay Special Taxes does not constitute a personal obligation of the current or subsequent owners of the respective parcels which are subject to such liens. See the caption "— Payment of the Special Tax is Not a Personal Obligation of the Property Owners." Enforcement of Special Tax payment obligations by the District is limited to judicial foreclosure in the Superior Court of California, County of Riverside. There is no assurance that any current or subsequent owner of a parcel subject to a Special Tax lien 41 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
will be able to pay the amounts due or that such owner will choose to pay such amounts even though financially able to do so.
Failure by owners of the parcels to pay Special Tax installments when due, delay in foreclosure proceedings, or the inability of the District to sell parcels that have been subject to foreclosure proceedings for amounts sufficient to cover the delinquent installments of Special Taxes levied against such parcels may result in the inability of the District to make full or timely payments of debt service on the Bonds, which may in turn result in the depletion of the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount. See the caption "— Enforcement Delays — Bankruptcy.
Insufficiency of Special Taxes
As discussed below, the Special Taxes may not produce revenues sufficient to pay the debt service on the Bonds due to nonpayment of the amounts levied.
In order to pay debt service on the Bonds, it is generally necessary that the Special Taxes be paid in a timely manner. Should the Special Taxes not be paid on time, the District has established 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount under the Indenture to be maintained in an amount equal to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement to pay debt service on the Bonds to the extent other funds are not available. See "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS — 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount of the Reserve Account of the Special Tax Fund." The District will covenant in the Indenture to maintain in the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount an amount equal to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement, subject, however, to the availability of Net Taxes in amounts sufficient to do so and to the limitation that the District may not levy the Special Tax in any Fiscal Year at a rate in excess of the maximum amounts permitted under the Rate and Method. See Appendix A and Appendix D hereto. As a result, if a significant number of Special Tax delinquencies occurs within the District, the District could be unable to replenish the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement due to the limitations on the amount of the Special Tax that may be levied. If such defaults were to continue in successive years, the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount could be depleted and a default on the Bonds could occur.
The 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount only secures and the amounts therein are only available to pay the principal of, redemption premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds. In connection with the issuance of a series of Parity Bonds, if any, the District may establish additional Subaccounts within the Reserve Account which secures such series of Parity Bonds. Such additional Subaccounts within the Reserve Account established for Parity Bonds will not secure the Bonds.
The Act provides that, if any property within the District not otherwise exempt from the Special Tax is acquired by a public entity through a negotiated transaction, or by gift or devise, the Special Tax will continue to be levied on and enforceable against the public entity that acquired the property. In addition, the Act provides that, if property subject to the Special Tax is acquired by a public entity through eminent domain proceedings, the obligation to pay the Special Tax with respect to that property is to be treated as if it were a special assessment and be paid from the eminent domain award. The constitutionality and operation of these provisions of the Act have not been tested in the courts, but it is doubtful that they would be upheld as to, for example, property owned by the federal government. If for any reason property within the District becomes exempt from taxation by reason of ownership by a non-taxable entity such as the federal government or another public agency, subject to the limitation of the Maximum Special Tax, the Special Tax will be reallocated to the remaining taxable parcels within the District. This would result in the owners of such property paying a greater amount of the Special Tax and could have an adverse impact upon their willingness and/or ability to pay the Special Tax. Moreover, if a substantial portion of additional land within the District became exempt from the Special Tax because of public ownership, or otherwise, the Maximum Special Tax which could be levied upon the remaining acreage might not be sufficient to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds when due and a default will occur with respect to the payment of such principal and interest.

The District will covenant in the Indenture that, under certain circumstances, it will institute foreclosure proceedings to sell any property with delinquent Special Taxes in order to obtain funds to pay debt service on the Bonds. If foreclosure proceedings were ever instituted, any mortgage or deed of trust holder could, but would not be required to, advance the amount of the delinquent Special Tax to protect its security interest. See "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS — Special Taxes — Proceeds of Foreclosure Sales" for provisions which apply in the event of such foreclosure and which the District is required to follow in the event of delinquencies in the payment of the Special Tax.
In the event that sales or foreclosures of property are necessary, there could be a delay in payments to Owners of the Bonds (if the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount has been depleted) pending such sales or the prosecution of such foreclosure proceedings and receipt by the City on behalf of the District of the proceeds of sale. The District may adjust the future Special Tax levied on taxable parcels in the District, subject to limitations described above under the caption "THE DISTRICT — Rate and Method of Apportionment," to provide an amount required to pay interest on and principal of the Bonds, and the amount, if any, necessary to replenish the 2024 Bonds Reserve Subaccount to an amount equal to the 2024 Bonds Reserve Requirement, and to pay all current expenses. There is, however, no assurance that the total amount of the Special Tax that could be levied and collected against taxable parcels in the District will be at all times sufficient to pay the amounts required to be paid by the Indenture, even if the Special Tax is levied at the Maximum Special Tax rates. See "— Enforcement Delays — Bankruptcy."
No assurance can be given that the real property subject to sale or foreclosure will be sold, or if sold, that the proceeds of sale will be sufficient to pay any delinquent installments of the Special Tax. The Act does not require the City to purchase or otherwise acquire any lot or parcel of property to be sold at foreclosure if there is no other purchaser at such sale. The Act and the Indenture do specify that the Special Tax will have the same lien priority as for ad valorem property taxes in the case of delinquency. Section 53356.6 of the Act requires that property sold pursuant to foreclosure under the Act be sold for not less than the amount of judgment in the foreclosure action, plus post judgment interest and authorized costs, unless the consent of the owners of 75% of the Outstanding Bonds and any Parity Bonds is obtained.
Prior to July 1, 1983, the right of redemption from foreclosure sales was limited to a period of one year from the date of sale. Under legislation effective July 1, 1983, the statutory right of redemption from such foreclosure sales has been repealed. However, a period of 20 days must elapse after the date on which the notice of levy of the interest in real property was served on the judgment debtor before the sale of such lot or parcel can be made. Furthermore, if the purchaser at the sale is the judgment creditor (e.g., the District), an action may be commenced by the delinquent property owner within 90 days after the date of sale to set aside such sale. The constitutionality of the aforementioned legislation, which repeals the one-year redemption period, has not been tested and there can be no assurance that, if tested, such legislation will be upheld. (Section 701.680 of the Code of Civil Procedure of the State).
Increasing Mortgage Interest Rates
30 -year fixed mortgage interest rates have increased substantially over the past year. Increases in mortgage interest rates could have a negative impact on the estimated absorption rates of the planned for -sale residential units in the District described herein. With respect to entry-level households, increased mortgage interest rates may adversely impact the affordability of homes and may increase mortgage payment levels for owning a lower -priced home relative to renting a residence, thereby making purchasing less attractive. With respect to move -up households, higher mortgage interest rates may impact the desire of current homeowners to move from their present home due to the fact that their present home likely has a relatively low mortgage interest rate. In addition, the new home would likely have a higher interest rate on a new mortgage loan as well as higher purchase price and property taxes. Such considerations may decrease the desire for move -up households to purchase a new home.

Impact of Economic Conditions on the Development in the District Certain events and factors which negatively affect the regional, State and national economies could have an adverse effect on the pace at which the current or any future developers in the District can complete the remaining infrastructure and future homes, and demand by, and the ability of individuals to purchase homes within the District. Such events and factors could include rising inflation and interest rates, persistent supply chain issues and global market instability caused by geopolitical events. Any adverse impact of the foregoing and other economic factors on the project in the District and the real estate market in general cannot be predicted.
Natural Disasters
The District, like all California communities, may be subject to unpredictable seismic activity, fires, floods, or other natural disasters. Southern California is a seismically active area. Seismic activity represents a potential risk for damage to buildings, roads, and property within the District. In addition, land susceptible to seismic activity may be subject to liquefaction during the occurrence of such event. The property within the District is located in a Fault -Rupture Hazard Zone (formerly referred to as an Alquist-Priolo Special Study Zone), as defined by Special Publication 42 (revised January 1994) of the California Department of Conservation, Division of Mines and Geology. The District is located approximately 1.3 miles southwest of the Banning Fault and 3.1 miles northwest of the San Gorgonio Pass Fault. The District is not located in a flood plain area.
In recent years, wildfires have caused extensive damage throughout the State. In some instances, entire neighborhoods have been destroyed. Several of the fires that occurred in recent years damaged or destroyed property in areas that were not previously considered to be at risk from such events. Some commentators believe that climate change will lead to even more frequent and more damaging wildfires in the future. Additionally, wildfires increase the risk of mudslides in areas like the District that are surrounded by hillsides. In general, property damage due to wildfire or mudslides could result in a significant decrease in the market value of property in the District and in the ability or willingness of property owners to pay Special Taxes.
Western Riverside County, in which the District is located, has previously experienced large-scale wildfires that resulted in the destruction of homes and businesses. According to the City's Municipal Code, which incorporates portions of the County's Ordinance 787 and the California Fire Code by reference, the District is not located in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. More information regarding Fire Hazard Severity Zones, including the most recent Fire Hazard Severity Zone Maps, can be found at the California Depaitiuent of Forestry and Fire Protection website at http://frap.fire.ca.gov/index , though such website is not incorporated herein by reference. Homeowner's insurance is available to property owners within the District, and the coverage provided by such insurance typically insures against fire damage, although there is no assurance that homeowners within the District will purchase or maintain such insurance.
In the event of a severe earthquake, fire, flood or other natural disaster, there may be significant damage to both property and infrastructure in the District. As a result, a substantial portion of the property owners may be unable or unwilling to pay the Special Taxes when due. In addition, the value of land in the District could be diminished in the aftermath of such a natural disaster, reducing the resulting proceeds of foreclosure sales in the event of delinquencies in the payment of the Special Taxes.
Hazardous Substances
While government taxes, assessments and charges are a common claim against the value of a parcel, other less common claims may also be relevant. One of the most serious in terms of the potential reduction in the value of a parcel is a claim with regard to a hazardous substance. In general, the owners and operators of a parcel may be required by law to remedy conditions relating to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances. The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, sometimes referred to as "CERCLA" or the "Super Fund Act," is the most well-known and widely applicable of these laws, but California laws with regard to hazardous substances are also stringent and similar in effect. Under 44 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
many of these laws, the owner (or operator) is obligated to remedy a hazardous substance condition of a parcel whether or not the owner (or operator) had anything to do with creating or handling the hazardous substance.
The effect, therefore, should any of the parcels within the District be affected by a hazardous substance, is to reduce the marketability and value by the costs of remedying the condition.
The District is not aware of the presence of any federally or state classified hazardous substances in violation of any environmental laws, located on the property within the District. However, it is possible that such materials do currently exist and that the District is not aware of them.
It is possible that property in the District may be liable for hazardous substances in the future as a result of the existence, currently, of a substance presently classified as hazardous but which has not been released or the release of which is not presently threatened, or the existence, currently, on the property of a substance not presently classified as hazardous but which may in the future be so classified. Additionally, such liabilities may arise not simply from the existence of a hazardous substance but from the method of handling such substance.
All of these possibilities could have the effect of reducing the value of the applicable property.
Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness
The ability of an owner of property within the District to pay the applicable Special Taxes could be affected by the existence of other taxes and assessments imposed upon taxable parcels. See "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT — Direct and Overlapping Debt" herein. The City and other public agencies whose boundaries overlap those of the District could impose additional taxes or assessment liens on the property within the District in order to finance public improvements or services to be located or provided inside of or outside of such area. The lien created on the property within the District through the levy of such additional taxes may be on a parity with the lien of the Special Taxes applicable to the property within the District.
The imposition of additional liens on a parity with the Special Taxes may reduce the ability or willingness of property owners to pay the Special Taxes and increase the possibility that foreclosure proceeds will not be adequate to pay delinquent Special Taxes.
Payment of the Special Tax is not a Personal Obligation of the Property Owners An owner of a taxable parcel is not personally obligated to pay Special Taxes. Rather, Special Taxes are an obligation which is secured only by a lien against the taxable parcel. If the value of a taxable parcel is not sufficient, taking into account other liens imposed by public agencies, to secure fully Special Taxes, the District has no recourse against the property owner.
Property Values
The value of the property within the District is a critical factor in determining the investment quality of the Bonds. If a property owner is delinquent in the payment of Special Taxes, the District's only remedy is to commence foreclosure proceedings against the delinquent parcel in an attempt to obtain funds to pay the Special Taxes. Reductions in property values due to a downturn in the economy, physical events such as earthquakes, fires or floods, stricter land use regulations, delays in development or other events will adversely impact the security underlying the Special Taxes. See "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT —Value -to -Lien Ratios."
The Appraiser has estimated, on the basis of certain definitions, assumptions and limiting conditions contained in the Appraisal Report that as of November 1, 2023, the value of the Taxable Parcels within the District was $240,762,396. The Appraisal Report is based on a number of assumptions and limiting conditions as stated in APPENDIX H —"APPRAISAL REPORT." The Appraisal Report does not reflect any possible negative impact which could occur by reason of future slow or no growth voter initiatives, an economic 45 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
downturn, any potential limitations on development occurring due to time delays, an inability of any landowner to obtain any needed development approval or permit, the presence of hazardous substances or other adverse soil conditions within the District, the listing of endangered species or the determination that habitat for endangered or threatened species exists within the District, or other similar situations.
Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should not assume that the land and improvements within the District could be sold for the amount stated in the Appraisal Report at a foreclosure sale for delinquent Special Taxes. In arriving at the estimate of market value of the Appraised Property in the Appraisal Report, the Appraiser assumes that any sale will be sold in a competitive market after a reasonable exposure time, and assuming that neither the buyer or seller is under duress, which is not always present in a foreclosure sale. See APPENDIX H —"APPRAISAL REPORT" for a description of other assumptions made by the Appraiser and for the definitions and limiting conditions used by the Appraiser. Any event which causes one of the Appraiser's assumptions to be untrue could result in a reduction of the value of the land within the District from that estimated by the Appraiser.
The assessed values set forth in this Official Statement do not represent market values arrived at through an appraisal process and generally reflect only the sales price of a parcel when acquired by its current owner, adjusted annually by an amount determined by the County Assessor, generally not to exceed an increase of more than 2% per fiscal year. No assurance can be given that a parcel could actually be sold for its assessed value.
No assurance can be given that any bid will be received for a parcel with delinquent Special Taxes offered for sale at foreclosure or, if a bid is received, that such bid will be sufficient to pay all delinquent Special Taxes. See APPENDIX D —"SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE BOND INDENTURE — COVENANTS AND WARRANTY —Covenants —Commence Foreclosure Proceedings." Parity Taxes and Special Assessments
Property within the District is subject to taxes and assessments imposed by other public agencies also having jurisdiction over the land within the District. See "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT — Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness."
The Special Taxes and any penalties thereon will constitute a lien against the lots and parcels of land on which they will be annually imposed until they are paid. Such lien is on a parity with all special taxes and special assessments levied by other agencies and is co -equal to and independent of the lien for general property taxes regardless of when they are imposed upon the same property. The Special Taxes have priority over all existing and future private liens imposed on the property except, possibly, for liens or security interests held by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. See "—Bankruptcy and Foreclosure." Neither the District nor the City has control over the ability of other entities and districts to issue indebtedness secured by special taxes, ad valorem taxes or assessments payable from all or a portion of the property within the District. In addition, the landowners within the District may, without the consent or knowledge of the District, petition other public agencies to issue public indebtedness secured by special taxes and ad valorem taxes or assessments. Any such special taxes or assessments may have a lien on such property on a parity with the Special Taxes and could reduce the estimated value -to -lien ratios for the property within the District described herein. See "SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS" and "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT —Direct and Overlapping Indebtedness" and "THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT —Value-to-Lien Ratios."
Disclosures to Future Purchasers
The willingness or ability of an owner of a parcel to pay the Special Tax even if the value is sufficient may be affected by whether or not the owner was given due notice of the Special Tax authorization at the time the owner purchased the parcel, was informed of the amount of the Special Tax on the parcel should the Special 46 4861-1693-0704v5/022599-0026
