PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Buena Park needs consulting services for the two existing swimming pools located in neighborhood parks -Peak Park Pool and Boisseranc Park Pool. Due to the deteriorated conditions of the existing pool deck and pool plaster, The Peak Park Pool will need pool deck placement, pool surface re-plastering and other renovation design items as listed in the scope of work below. The Boisseranc Park Pool will not need re-plastering since this was completed recently, but a pool deck replacement and equipment room changes are required, as listed below.
Based on the RFP and further clarification through communication with the City and following the newly implemented OC Health Care Agency (OC Health) submittal process and check list, the scope of work has been defined below. This list of task items should ensure the efficient completion and OC Health approval of the renovation plans.
• Demolition plans for the pool plater, pool deck and shading structures • Remove existing diving boards and re-install, if possible • Repair for all structural damages on pool shell
• Pool interior plaster surface, expansion joints
• All pool tiles and depth markers
• New underwater lights and new wiring/ conduits/transformers/ connection to existing electrical panel (there is existing pool deck lighting and it is not included in this scope of work)
• New concrete deck/coping with slot drains. Depending on slope and existing grades, more than one slot drain may be required. The new deck will also have all necessary anchor fittings for deck equipment. • Add new planters/landscape at existing shade structure areas • New Americans with disabilities act (ADA) compliant pool lift chairs • Items listed in the pool renovation guidelines issued by the OC Health • Demolition plans for the pool coping, pool deck and pool fence / gates • Remove existing water slide and install a new slide
• All pool depth markers on deck and on pool wall
• Replace underwater lights and connection to existing electrical J-boxes (there is no pool deck lighting and it is not included in this scope of work)
• New concrete deck/coping with slot drains to be connected to park storm drain system. The new deck will also have all necessary anchor fittings for deck equipment.
• New Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant pool lift chairs • New 8-feet high wrought iron fence and gates
• Install cages around existing utilities (i.e. gas and water piping) • Move chemical storage to existing shed next door
• Add a new pump to make the pool filtration system a dual pump system
• Electrical panel to be moved outside the mechanical room • Existing corroded electrical panel to be replaced, if necessary • Updating ADA compliant shower to use the ones that have multiple heads and foot operation
• Items listed in the pool renovation guidelines issued by the OC Heath Project Understanding
PEAK PARK POOL DESIGN SCOPE INCLUDES:
BOISSERANC PARK POOL DESIGN SCOPE INCLUDE:
The project scope also includes a geotechnical investigation and site survey. We provided a budgetary estimate for the geotechnical and survey work.
City and Consultant will discuss the need for these scope items during the initial design, and the scope and fee may require adjustment at that time. A Pool Remodel Permit from Orange Health will be required for the pool resurfacing. It will be part of the design consultant's scope to prepare all required documents to meet the OC Health and City plan review requirements and assist the City in obtaining all necessary permits and approvals.
DocuSign Envelope ID: A7105339-BD55-4EF6-B04D-001EFF96907D DocuSign Envelope ID: 922F993A-4435-4C08-9F88-E0209EA8D7E3 C091 // PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING DESIGN SERVICES PROPOSAL FOR THE CITY OF BUENA PARK – PEAK PARK AND BOISSERANC PARK POOL IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT SCOPE OF WORK // 2
PACE will manage and coordinate the design process and research and collect all data necessary for the successful completion of this project. PACE will also help the City secure the OC Health permits, and any other agency permits needed. PACE understands that use of the pools will be in high demand, so the design will need to consider the project duration, construction timing and pool startup time requirements.
Draw from past project experience from newly designed and permitted pool renovation designs within Orange County.
Project challenges includes:
• Project cost control
• Existing pool shell structure condition not visible before pool plaster removal
• Short construction schedule to minimize the disturbance of the facility normal usage
• Noise and dust generated during construction should be controlled to minimize the impact on the nearby residents
• Coordinate closely with the City of Buena Park to understand the project limits and constraints.
• Confirm and finalize the working schedule with the City. • Conduct project site inspections before the start of design to identify items to be removed and replaced inside and outside the pool. • Engage a building architect and structural consultant for the building code and ADA compliance review and structural inspection of the existing pool shell after the existing pool plaster removal. Auxiliary facility improvement and structural repair design will be provided if any are identified.
• If required by the City, PACE will perform a pan evaporation test on-site before draining water to determine if the pool is losing water through seepage. The test will require that the pool not get used and is not operated with recirculation or filling water.
• Check the existing pool system against current codes to ensure code compliance and permit approval. Areas of review will include VGB compliance, ADA compliance, and pool depth markers.
• Replace existing lights and add new lights with new energy-efficient LED pool lights.
• We understand the City may use conventional white marble dust plaster for the pool. We suggest conducting a comparison study for the pool resurface options so the City can make a final decision based on thorough research and analysis information such as initial installation costs, lifespan, visual appearance, pool startup costs and startup time, resistance to harsh pool chemistry conditions, and lifetime costs. PACE will prepare such a study for the City to review and select the pool resurface option. This task will be offered as Optional Services in the event that the City is already set on using white marble dust.
• Prepare initial and final pool deck replacement and pool resurface construction plans and details using AutoCAD for permit submittal, project bidding, and construction.
• Prepare initial and final project specifications and probable construction costs for the proposed construction items. • Assist the City during project bidding and construction for submittal reviews, answer project questions and prepare as-built plans based on contractor's mark-up records. PACE is well-versed in construction- related services and has full-time staff members who specialize in construction management for water feature projects. Our experience in design-build and general construction of water features will have direct application to our construction services. With our office located in Orange County, less than 30 miles from the project site, we will be able to quickly respond to specific needs at the project site and will have staff members on average 24 hours/week during the key pool construction period.

PROJECT MANAGER
Zirang Song has civil design/engi neering experience spanning back to 1990. From concept to final design and specifications, his areas of expertise include all areas of water infrastructure including swimming pool filtration system design, lake system design, water storage, water feature/fountain design, pump station design, water conveyance, and construction management. He has specific water feature expertise in concept design, site grading, mechanical engineering design of aquatic facilities, electronic controls, telemetry, advan ced disinfection system s and hydraulics. Other responsibilitie s include construction support and coordination.
William Woollett Jr. Aquatic Center Pool Re-plastering Project – Irvine, CA The William Woollett Jr. Aquatic Center (Aquatic Center) is a swimm ing facility comprised of three pools, one Olympic size (50 meters x 25 yards) competition pool, one Olympic size (50 meters x 25 yards) diving pool and one instructional pool (25 meters x 25 yards). The City of Irvine needed the Aquatic Center pools to be re-plastered due to the lifespan of the existing pool plaster. Mr. Song served as the Project Manager for the design of the new pool surfaces and related waterline tiles, lane line tiles, target tiles, grates and fittings, that will last for a long period of time under different pool chemistry conditions. The design met competition pool requirements and the current State and County pool codes, as well as the current ADA standards. PACE provided the City with pool surface options benefits and drawbacks such as initial installation cost, material lifespan, pool startup requirements, pool operation chemistry conditions, and selected the most suitable option achieving long term cost saving. PACE also prepared all required documents and a Pool Remodel to meet the County and City plan review requirements and assisted the City to obtain all necessary permits and approvals.
City of Santa Ana Memorial Pool Renovation – Santa Ana, CA Mr. Song was the Sr. Project Engineer for the Santa Ana Pool renovation project. He performed an assessment and developed engineering plans and specifications to renovate the 167-foot x 65-foot 50-year old pool system that services the local community in Santa Ana. The resulting solutions will meet current health and building codes and will reduce the City’s operations and maintenance costs.
Disneyland Hotel Pool Renovation – Anaheim, CA
As the Sr. Project Engineer, Mr. Song provided the engineering design for all the aquatic components of the Disneyland Hotel Courtyard Improvements project including the renovation of the Neverland Pool, des ign of the new North spa (200 square feet ), South spa (200 square feet), Arroyo Pool (approximately 3500 square feet ), and the addition of a 4,000 square fo ot water play area called the Magical Springs Pool. The Magical Springs Pool has an 8' deep activity pool with water play components including geysers, pop jets, fountains, water pyrotechnics, four water slides and water slide structure including manmade rockwork that forms the base of the twenty-four-foot-high water slide. There were strict requirements for the operation of this new facility that went above and beyond that of current code requirements. Given extensive existing infrastructure at the hotel, the use of Civil 3D and BIM modeling supported the design process and difficult utility coordination that was needed by identifying and resolving potential conflicts with the renovation design components.
Yountville Community Pool Evaluation – Yountville, CA
Mr. Song served as the Project Manager to provide engineering design services for the Yountville Community Pools – Children’s Pool project. This project included the design and construction evaluation of the Children’s Pool with Zero Edge Entry and well as the design of the water features within the pool including one dew drop feature, one spout feature and one bubbler feature.
Spectrum Pool Design Specifications – Irvine, CA
Mr. Song assisted in the preparation of pool performance design specification s for the pool contractors within the Irvine Company Apartment Communities to follow on all new pool

William Woollett Jr. Aquatic Center Pool Re-plastering Project – Irvine, CA
The William Woollett Jr. Aquatic Center (Aquatic Center) located between Heritage Park and Irvine High School is a world class swimming facility comprised of three pools, one Olympic size (50 meters x 25 yards) competition pool, one Olympic size (50 meters x 25 yards) diving pool and one instructional pool (25 meters x 25 yards). The City of Irvine needed consulting services for the Aquatic Center pools to be re-plastered due to the lifespan of the existing pool plaster. The City hired PACE to produce the design for the new pool surfaces and related waterline tiles, lane line tiles, target tiles, grates and fittings, that will last for a long period of time under different pool chemistry conditions. The design met competition pool requirements and the current State and County pool codes, as well as the current ADA standards.
PACE provided the City with pool surface options benefits and drawbacks such as initial installation cost, material lifespan, pool startup requirements, pool operation chemistry conditions, and selected the most suitable option achieving long term cost saving. The design also included a pool plaster demolition plan, considering the environmental impact in terms of noise and dust due to the project proximity to a school. PACE also prepared all required documents and a Pool Remodel to meet the County and City plan review requirements and assisted the City to obtain all necessary permits and approvals.
PACE also recommended the pool shell structural integrity to be examined during the project so that any structural condition deficiencies that would be discovered could be addressed once the plaster is removed.

City of Santa Ana Memorial Pool and Civic Center Fountain Renovation – Santa Ana, CA
The evaluation included waterproofing, nozzles, piping, chemistry control and delivery, pump, filtration, materials and lighting. Construction documents were prepared based on recommended improvements from the assessment report.
PACE provided assessment consulting services and engineering design services for the rehabilitation of the Memorial Pool in the City of Santa Ana, a public-use swim facility. The 167' x 65' pool, with depths ranging from three to 12 feet, was originally constructed in 1961 and is open seasonally from Memorial Day to Labor Day. The pool system developed operational issues and increased maintenance costs resulting from cracking, leaks, and black algae. PACE performed a thorough assessment of the existing system and determined the minimum level of action necessary to rectify the pool's issues and reduce the City's operational and maintenance cost. The evaluation included an audit of equipment and operations to ensure current Health Department and California Building codes were met, and determined that the mechanical pumping system was out of compliance. Final recommendations and design services were performed to repair the pool shell including waterproofing, plaster, fittings, lighting, and tile. Decking renovations were also recommended and the pumping system was redesigned to comply with current Health Department codes including a new pump as well as repair of cracks in the pump station room. A chemical storage room was also designed to provide proper ventilation.

CONSTRUCTION BUDGET
Preliminary Pool Renovation Construction Cost Estimate Demonstration We understand it is very important for the City of Buena Park to know a budgetary pool renovation construction cost. Without a detailed pool renovation design and construction scope of work, it is difficult to provide an accurate estimate.
Based on higher construction costs in materials and labor and recently bid municipal pool improvement projects (Woollett Aquatic Center pools in City of Irvine, specifically) we believe the cost estimate in the RFP “FEASIBILITY REPORT” exhibit “L ” is too low. We have prepared an initial demonstrative estimate of the probable construction costs, and we believe the cost will be in the range of $1.1 million to $1.4 million for the Peak Park Pool and $400,000 to $600,000 for Boisseranc Park Pool. ” DocuSign Envelope ID: A7105339-BD55-4EF6-B04D-001EFF96907D DocuSign Envelope ID: 922F993A-4435-4C08-9F88-E0209EA8D7E3

PREVIOUS CITY COUNCIL ACTION
In June 2019, City Council discussed creation of the Navigation Center Oversight Board and directed staff to return with recommendations for committee member appointees. On July 9, 2019, City Council appointed representatives to the Navigation Center Oversight Board. On June 14, 2022, the City Council directed staff to formalize the Navigation Center Oversight Board via Ordinance, added an additional resident to the Board, and designated the District 5 Council Member as the City Council liaison to the Board. On June 28, 2022, City Council approved all of the items requested on June 14, 2022.
On March 12, 2024, City Council directed staff to amend the ordinance of the Navigation Center Oversight Commission pertaining to Section 2.60.020 Members - Number and Qualifications.
DISCUSSION
City Council provided staff with direction to expand the eligibility and requirements for Navigation Center Oversight Commissioners to include individuals and businesses from the broader Buena Park community. By removing restrictions based on residential, work locations, and proximity of residence and businesses to the Navigation Center, the City Council gains access to a wider pool of talent and perspective individuals, while ensuring the commission reflects the diversity of the community it serves.

Draft Ordinance - Navigation Center Member Qualifications.pdf Study Session_3-12-24_Direction Regarding the Navigation Oversight Commission.pdf areas of the Navigation Center identified as the Poet Tract, south of the Navigation Center, between Valley View Avenue and Knott Avenue; the residential area located within 8th Street to Melrose Avenue, between Knott Avenue and Western Avenue; or the bird tract, south of Orangethrope Avenue, between Holder Street and Valley View Street." The amended language now reads:
"The Navigation Oversight Commission shall consist of nine voting members. One member shall be a representative from the Buena Park Collaborative, one member shall be a representative from a school district serving the City of Buena Park, one member shall be a social worker or an Orange County health care worker, one member shall be a representative of a Health Care provider, two members shall be representatives in the community, and three members shall be Buena Park residents."

At the request of Council Member Traut and Vice Mayor Ahn, this item is being presented for City Council discussion and guidance. City staff has been tasked with assessing and providing recommendations regarding the current composition of the Navigation Center Oversight Commission, particularly focusing on the nine members who are residents of the City, employed or involved in business within the City, and have a vested interest in the coordination of the Buena Park Navigation Center.
The City has seven established City commissions/committees which serve as advisory bodies to the City Council.
These commissions/committees facilitate public input and citizen participation in the determination of City policies. City Council Members directly appoint citizens to serve on these commissions/committees.
On June 28, 2022, City Council adopted the ordinance formalizing the Navigation Center Oversight Commission.
The ordinance took effect 30-days after adoption. Upon adoption of the ordinance, those who were serving previously on the commission became official members of the Navigation Center Oversight Commission.
City Council confirmed the appointments of:
Joseph Crumpler as the resident representative for the Bird Tract for a term that will expire on July 31, 2024;
Edward Choi as the business/faith-based representative for a term that will expire on July 31, 2024; Lisa Jessup as the resident representative for the Bird Tract for a term that will expire on July 31, 2025; 4/19/24, 1:54 PM AgendaLink
https://horizon.agendalink.app/buenaparkca/print/action/65de5954ab99630034c0a112?print=true 2/2 Commission Purpose:
The Buena Park Navigation Center Oversight Commission serves the fundamental purpose of enhancing and fostering communication among residents, businesses, and community agencies. Its goal is to bolster community awareness, facilitate support, and optimize the operations of the Buena Park Navigation Center in addressing homelessness within the City of Buena Park.
Meeting Frequency:
The Commission convenes quarterly, with meetings scheduled for July, October, January, and April.
Staff seeks City Council consideration in expanding the eligibility and requirements for Navigation Center Oversight Commissioners to include individuals and businesses from the broader community of Buena Park.
By removing restrictions based on residential, work locations, and proximity of residence and businesses to the Navigation Center, City Council gains access to a wider pool of talent and perspective individuals, ensuring that the commission reflects the diversity of the community it serves.
Cristina Chang (CURRENTLY VACANT) as the business representative (5,500 feet from Navigation Center) for a term that will expire on July 31, 2025; (Please note Ms. Chang has resigned from her position) Barry Ross as the representative for Providence St. Jude Medical, term expired on July 31, 2023; Carol McCann as the representative for the Buena Park Collaborative for a term that will expire on July 31, 2024;

CONSENT CALENDAR Item: 4K
Presented By
Jason Tran, Assistant Engineer
Prepared By
Mina Mikhael, Director of Public Works/City Engineer
Approved By
Aaron France, City Manager
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1) Increase the spending cap for Public Works Contract with Ayala Engineering Inc. to increase the contract budget by $100,000; and 2) Authorize the Purchasing Manager to amend the existing purchase order.
PREVIOUS CITY COUNCIL ACTION
On March 14, 2023, the City Council approved a two-year contract with Ayala Engineering, Inc. to provide on-call emergency sewer repair services without a guaranteed minimum and a not-to-exceed amount of $200,000. The contract term began on April 1, 2023, and remains effective until March 30, 2025.
DISCUSSION
The City operates and maintains over 168 miles of sewer lines. While the City’s sewer staff handles routine maintenance tasks, there are occasional instances where the sewer lines experience failures, necessitating prompt emergency repairs. In cases where work exceeds the capabilities of City staff, Ayala Engineering, Inc. is contracted to perform immediate on-call emergency services upon request. This has allowed the City to address emergency repairs quickly and minimize costs.
The City expended a total of $162,291 in 2023, and $21,323 in 2024 related to emergency sewer repair. The current contract with Ayala Engineering, Inc. has a remaining balance of $16,388 and there is approximately one year remaining in the term of the contract. In preparation for future emergency sewer repairs, staff recommends the approval of a budget amendment in a not-to-exceed amount of $100,000. The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the amendment to the budget within the existing contract.
BUDGET IMPACT
The amendment is in the amount of $100,000. The approval of the budget amendment does not directly appropriate or expend funds. Services will be requested, as needed, for emergencies. Costs associated with the on-call services contract will be funded by the Miscellaneous Sewer System Improvements budget (Account No. 52-9806-490010).

RECOMMENDED ACTION
1) Award the 2024 Myrna Holmquist Scholarship to Tiffany Elnitiarta in the amount of $10,000.
PREVIOUS CITY COUNCIL ACTION
In January 2024, Council Members Brown and Castañeda were appointed to the Myrna Holmquist Scholarship Ad Hoc Committee.
DISCUSSION
Each year, the Myrna Holmquist Scholarship is awarded to students who have a career interest in the Communications field and desire to apply their knowledge and leadership abilities to a career within the field. Applicants must be Buena Park residents, who are either high school seniors in the process of enrolling in college or are current college students.
Each student must have a grade point average (GPA) of 2.75 or higher and major in the area of Communications.
Scholarships can be awarded in an amount up to $10,000.
In April, two scholarship applications were received; however, only one applicant met the qualifications. The eligible application was received from Tiffany Elnitiarta, who is currently a senior at Sunny Hills High School. Tiffany is a 4.0 student, who has committed to New York University where she will work toward a degree in Media, Culture and Communication. During her high school tenure, Tiffany has been very involved in the Helios yearbook publication process and played a pivotal role in creating an award-winning yearbook multiple years. As design editor, she developed a visually striking yearbook that showed her deep understanding of the importance of clarity, visual boldness, and modern communication. She became editor-in-chief her senior year and provided leadership and guidance to underclassmen learning various communication and design skills. Tiffany is also the President and Division News Editor for the school's Key Club, melding service to the community along with her communication and media skills.
Tiffany was also named one of the Fullerton Rotary Top 100 Students.
In January 2024, the City Council selected Council Members Brown and Castañeda to serve on the Myrna Holmquist Scholarship Ad Hoc Committee. On May 7, 2024, the Committee interviewed Tiffany via Zoom. Based on her application and interview, the Committee is recommending that the City Council award Tiffany the 2024 Myrna Holmquist Scholarship in the amount of $10,000.

Myrna Holmquist Communications ScholarshipEssay
The Communications field allows for a versatility in careers, like digital media, advertising, and management. I aspire to utilize my media skills to advocate for important causes in society. I plan on studying the effects of mediaand variouscommunication forms, participating in various clubs, andgaining experiencethrough internshipjobs.
In Sunny Hills, I becameDesign Editor, CoverageEditor, andEditor -in -Chief over the four years in Yearbook. Creating our award winning Helios Yearbook — National Scholastic Pacemaker Finalist in 2021; Columbia Scholastic Silver Crown when I was Design Editor ( 2022) and Coverage Editor ( 2023) developedmy skills in collaboration, communication, planning andleadership.
In Key Club, I was President and Division News Editor. I applied my media skills to enhanceclub communication while working alongside other cabinet members. We volunteered to tutor at middle school, create cards for hospitals, and decorate Rose - Parade - Float. I received the Distinguished Division Leadership Team Officer twice.
I was also active in Link Crew, California Scholarship Federation, andNational Honors Society, while academicallychallenging myself in the International Baccalaureateprogram. I also received the Fullerton Rotary Top 100StudentsAward.
Outside school, I gained experience as California Association of Student Councils' s Communications Director. I promoted conferencesto OrangeCounty schools and obtained delegates, keynote speakers, and panelists for events. Additionally, as Future Changemakers Conference' s Media Director, I established a media presence to reach students countrywide to attend the conference.
Financially, I plan to fund college with a combination of parent support, work, scholarships, and financial aid.

DISCUSSION
Cities undertake annual pavement rehabilitation projects to ensure the safety, functionality, and longevity of road infrastructure. These projects address issues such as cracks, potholes, and surface wear, preventing them from worsening and reducing the need for costly emergency repairs. Well-maintained roads contribute to better roadway conditions for motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians. Additionally, roads enhance public satisfaction, improve the overall quality of life for residents, and boost the reputation of a City.
The 2023-2024 Annual Pavement Rehabilitation Project will include removing and replacing street pavement, sidewalks, curbs and gutters, cross gutters, curb ramps, striping, and traffic loops in the area north of Artesia Boulevard and south of Pacific Avenue between Rostrata Avenue and Beach Boulevard. Additionally, Academy Drive, Campus Drive, and Faculty Circle will also be a part of this project to receive treatment and rehabilitation. Academy Drive will also be evaluated for new striping layouts to be implemented as part of this project.
The project was advertised for competitive bid on April 17, 2024. Five bids were received and publicly opened on May 1, 2024. Bid amounts ranged from $1,363,330 to $1,658,960. The lowest, responsible bid was submitted by R.J. Noble Company of Orange, CA in the amount of $1,363,330. This contractor possesses the required license and has completed similar projects for the City. Staff recommends awarding a contract to R.J. Noble Company and approving contingency funds in the amount of $140,000. Construction is scheduled to begin in June 2024 and be completed in August 2024.

City Council Regular Meeting Agenda Report
RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING NEW RATES FOR THE COLLECTION, RECYCLING, AND DISPOSAL OF REFUSE AND
APPROVAL OF A UTILITY BILL INSERT REGARDING THE NEW RESIDENTIAL REFUSE RATES Meeting

Agenda Group
NEW BUSINESS Item: 5B
Presented By
Joe Hunt, Public Works Manager
Prepared By
Mina Mikhael, Director of Public Works/City Engineer
Approved By
Aaron France, City Manager
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1) Adopt a Resolution establishing new rates for the collection, recycling, and disposal of refuse; and 2) Approve a water bill insert notifying residential customers of the new rates.
PREVIOUS CITY COUNCIL ACTION
On July 13, 2021, the City Council adopted a resolution establishing new rates for the collection, recycling, and disposal of refuse. This resolution established that, without conducting another noticed public hearing, annually on each July 1, beginning July 1, 2022, and continuing through July 1, 2026, the City Council may increase the rates for inflation by the annual percentage increase in the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County CA Consumer Price Index (CPI). For any fiscal year in which the City Council does not increase rates by the authorized adjustment, the City Council may add the amount of the authorized increase for such fiscal year to the authorized adjustment in subsequent fiscal years.
On April 25, 2023, the City Council adopted a resolution to adjust refuse rates based on rates of inflation in the Los Angeles- Riverside-Orange County CA CPI. On May 23, 2023, those rates were revised due to a clerical error.
DISCUSSION
The request for the proposed rate increase is based upon the City's existing refuse collection franchise agreement ("Agreement") with EDCO. The Agreement provides for increases in refuse rates in the event that circumstances beyond the control of the Contractor impose or generate excessive costs in the performance of the Agreement. In this case, EDCO has seen increases to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) that impact their costs to collect, recycle, and dispose of refuse at County landfills. Cost increases include tipping fees at county landfills increasing $1.34/ton, increased cost of fuel for vehicles, compensation for employees, and price of trucks and other equipment necessary to operate.
On the commercial side, EDCO has seen increases of 3.472% to provide collection, 3.472% for recycling and organics processing, and 3.169% for disposal at county landfills. EDCO proposes corresponding increases to these fees, which would equate to an average of increase of $5.96 per month for basic commercial bin service.

2024 Rate Notification - Buena Park .pdf
Buena Park 2024 PI Revised 3.19.24.pdf
2024 Reso Refuse Rates.pdf
On the residential side, EDCO has seen increases of 3.159% to provide collection, 3.330% for recycling and organics processing, and 2.376% for disposal at county landfills. EDCO deferred implementing a 2.72% portion of recycling and organics cost increases during last year's rate adjustment to provide some relief to customers. Including those deferments, this year's total increase for residential recycling and organics processing is 6.049%. This would equate to a proposed increase of $0.87 per month for basic residential service.
As the proposed fee increases are limited to the CPI, a public hearing and extended notice period are not required for implementation. However, upon approval, the Finance Department will include notice in utility bills prior to the fee being implemented. Generally, this means customers will not see fee increases on their bills until August.
BUDGET IMPACT
Estimated costs and revenues associated with refuse services are included in the proposed FY 2023-25 budget.

PREVIOUS CITY COUNCIL ACTION
DISCUSSION
Background
The project site consists of a three-acre vacant parcel on the south side of Artesia Boulevard, just northeast of the I-5 Freeway. Approximately 0.9 acres are owned by the City and were once street right-of-way for Manchester Boulevard. The remaining 2.01 acres are privately owned by the Kim Family. The parcels are zoned Auto Center Specific Plan (ACSP) and have a General Plan land use designation of Commercial. The properties to the north and east are also located within the ACSP and consist of a gas station, CarMax, and a Hampton Inn. The property is bordered on the south and west by the I-5 Freeway and freeway off-ramp at Artesia Boulevard. The portion of the site that was formerly street right-of-way was abandoned by the City between 2001-2009 to create parcels that would eventually become the Buena Park Auto Mall and Auto Center Specific Plan. While CarMax, Premier Chevrolet and Premier Chrysler/Jeep were developed along Auto Center Drive and Artesia Boulevard, the subject property was never redeveloped and has been leased for vehicle storage for many The City, in partnership with the adjacent property owner, released a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the joint development of the subject properties in May 2021.
The City Council received a briefing about the proposals received in July 2021.
The City Council approved an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement (ENA) with Atwater Infrastructure Partners, LLC in November 2021.
years. The property is irregularly shaped and has split ownership between the City and a private property owner, which further complicated redevelopment efforts. In 2021, the City partnered with the adjacent private property owner to release a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for redevelopment of the site. From the proposals received, the City Council selected Atwater Infrastructure Partners, LLC, to redevelop the site with EV charging, drive-through food uses, and retail/restaurants.
The City Council approved an Exclusive Negotiating Agreement with Atwater Infrastructure Partners in November 2021.
Project Description
The project site is currently divided into eleven parcels; however, as part of the project, a parcel map is proposed to reconfigure the property into three parcels for the following uses:
1. 2.
3. The site is accessed from two driveways, one located on Artesia Boulevard and the other on Botryoides Avenue. The project shares driveways, drive aisles and parking, except for the EV Charging (Electrify America), which has a separate driveway entrance on Botryoides Avenue. The 125 parking spaces are shared by all tenants through reciprocal easements. A total of 32,600 square feet of landscaping is proposed throughout the project site, primarily around the exterior and within parking lot landscape islands. The proposed landscape palette is drought tolerant and California native species including Fan Palms, Palo Verde, Western Redbud and African Sumac trees. Shrubs and groundcover including Lantana, Star Jasmine, Bougainvillea and a variety of succulents are also proposed to fill in around the trees and provide screening of trash enclosures and EV charging equipment.
Planning Commission Action
On April 10, 2024, the Planning Commission considered a Conditional Use Permit, Tentative Parcel Map, and Sign Program for the project. Following a presentation by City staff and public comments, the Planning Commission approved the requested entitlements and found the project Categorically Exempt from CEQA by a 5-0 vote. Once completed, the Final Parcel Map will be agendized for City Council consideration at a future meeting.
Purchase and Sale Agreement
Pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement (Attachment 1), the Buyer has agreed to purchase the property for $1,000,000, with an initial deposit of $50,000. This purchase price is the appraised fair market value of the property. Escrow will open within five days of the effective date of the Agreement and will close following the completion and recordation of specified documents, but in no case later than 120 days from the effective date of the Agreement, unless extended by mutual written agreement of the parties. At the request of the City, the Buyer has agreed to a Declaration of Construction Covenants and Performance Guarantee. These documents/agreements will provide the City assurance that the buyer has adequate funds to complete the project and that construction activities will commence immediately and be completed in a timely manner.
In the unlikely event the Buyer fails to proceed and complete the grading, site work, and off-site improvements that are required for the Project within the deadlines specified in the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Buyer shall pay the City $1,370 per calendar day for each and every day the work remains incomplete. The maximum delay penalty payment due to the City shall be one-million dollars ($1,000,000) and is in addition to any other rights or remedies the City may have for non-performance. Once site work is complete, the Buyer is obligated to proceed with completing the project, buildings, and Parcel A is located at the corner of Artesia Boulevard and Botryoides Avenue and will include a 1,263-square-foot building with a drive-through food/coffee use.
Parcel B is located along Artesia Boulevard and extends south along the I-5 freeway off-ramp. This parcel will include two commercial buildings. Building B-1 is a 5,200-square-foot building that will be occupied by a retail or food tenant(s).
Building B-2 is a 2,448-square-foot building with a drive-through food use. Parcel B will also include 28 electric vehicle charging stations (Tesla), a 55-foot-high freeway facing monument sign and an 18-foot-high monument sign facing Artesia Boulevard.
Parcel C is accessed from Botryoides Avenue and includes 48 charging stations for Electrify America and a covered patio seating area.

other improvements in collaboration with future tenants, and the City’s Declaration of Construction Covenants will remain in place until a final Certificate of Occupancy is issued.
Purchase Price Loan
Buyer has requested the City provide a market-rate loan in the amount of $950,000 towards the purchase price of the Property. The proposed loan would have a term of thirty-six (36) months from the closing, bear interest at 5%, with interest- only payments being monthly and final balance due on the maturity date. The loan would be secured by the recordation of a first position deed of trust on the Property at closing.
Surplus Lands Act
The California Surplus Lands Act (“Act”) applies to the City’s disposition of all “surplus property,” and requires the City to market and make properties available for housing, parks and recreational, or educational purposes before disposing of real property on the open market for other purposes. However, the Act does not apply to “exempt surplus land,” which includes real property that was once was a public street or right of way and is now being conveyed to an adjacent property owner.
This transaction satisfies this standard, as the City-owned property is former street right-of-way, and the Buyer has a long- term ownership interest (60-year lease) in the adjacent parcel. On November 23, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 14410 making this determination.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
In accordance with the CEQA Guidelines, the City has determined that the proposed project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to Section 15332 of the CEQA Guidelines. Section 15332 (Class 32) consist of projects characterized as in-fill development meeting the following specified criteria:
Additionally, the Tentative Parcel Map request is Categorically Exempt pursuant to Class 15 Section 15315 (Minor Land Divisions) and the Sign Program request is Categorically Exempt pursuant to Class 11 Section 15311 of the CEQA Guidelines. The division of land is in an urbanized area zoned for commercial use into three parcels. The sign program regulates the on-premise tenant signs within a multi-tenant commercial center.
BUDGET IMPACT
The purchase price specified in the Purchase and Sale Agreement is $1,000,000, which will be deposited into the City’s General Fund.
The proposed development is consistent with the Commercial General Plan land use designation and the permitted uses in the Auto Center Specific Plan zoning.
The subject property is less than five acres in size and is surrounded by urban uses along Artesia Boulevard and I-5 Freeway.
The site is currently vacant and has no value for habitat for endangered or threatened species.
The proposed project has been reviewed by the City and Orange County Fire Authority and, as conditioned, will not result in any significant effects on traffic, noise, air quality or water quality.
The site is located adjacent to existing commercial uses and is served by all required utilities and public services. 01005.0012/276364.1 A

Seller shall not unreasonably delay or deny approval of the Final Parcel Map and shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer in the processing, filing, and recordation of the Final Parcel Map with the county registrar. Upon recordation of the Final Parcel Map, the Parties shall amend or modify the Deed of Trust and the Construction Covenants Trust to change the legal description of the Property therein to match that reflected in the Final Parcel Map. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if feasible and at Buyer’s discretion, nothing precludes the Parties from processing, filing, and recording the Final Parcel Map prior to the Closing, in which case at the Closing the Deed of Trust and Construction Covenants shall be recorded on the Property is it is described in the Final Parcel Map.
9.7 Cost of Development. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Buyer shall pay its own costs for engineering, planning, designing, and developing the Project, subject to any contribution consistent with Buyer’s Financing Plan.
9.8 Buyer’s Failure to Development Project; Delay Damages. (a) In the event Buyer, after Closing and before issuance of a Completion Certificate, fails or declines to pursue construction, development, and opening of the Project as required by this Agreement, and Buyer fails to cure such breach within 30 days after rec eipt of written notice from Seller, or if the cure takes longer than 30 days and Buyer fails to commence to cure such breach within said 30 days or to diligently pursue the cure without interruption until complete, then, as Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy for such failure, Buyer shall owe to Seller as liquidated damages (“Delay Damages”) the sum of $1,370 per calendar day for each and every day grading and site preparation work for the Project Site, together with offsite improvements required to be const ructed by Buyer as conditions of approval of the Approvals for the Project, remain incomplete after the deadline established in the Schedule of Performance and subject to extension for Excusable Delay. The maximum aggregate Delay Damages that shall be due and payable to Seller shall be ONE MILLION DOLLARS ($1,000,000.00). For purposes of this section, grading, site preparation, and off-site work for the Project Site shall be deemed complete when the permit for such work is “closed” by Seller, in the exercise of its Government Authority, signifying that the work for which the permit was issued was inspected and deemed complete. (b) Seller may, at Seller’s option, exercise the right to collect the Delay Damages set forth in subsection (a) by giving notice, in writing, of such election to Buyer specifying the date on which Delay Damages shall commence, the items needed to be completed or corrected, and the corrective action(s) Buyer must take. Buyer shall remit payment of Delay Damages to Seller within thirty (30) days of a formal demand for payment by Seller, and Seller may make a demand for payment of Delay Damages every thirty (30) days unless and until the subject work is complete.
IF BUYER FAILS TO PROCEED WITH DEVELOPMENT AND
CONSTRUCTION OF THE PROJECT SOLELY BECAUSE OF DEFAULT BY BUYER,
THE SELLER WILL BE DAMAGED AND WILL BE ENTITLED TO COMPENSATION
FOR THOSE DAMAGES, BUT SUCH DAMAGES WILL BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND IMPRACTICAL TO ASCERTAIN. EACH PARTY DESIRES TO LIMIT THE
AMOUNT OF DAMAGES FOR WHICH THEY MIGHT BE LIABLE SHOULD IT BREACH THIS AGREEMENT. BOTH BUYER AND SELLER WISH TO AVOID THE
COSTS AND LENGTHY DELAYS THAT WOULD RESULT IF A PARTY FILED A LAWSUIT TO COLLECT ITS DAMAGES FOR A BREACH OF BUYER’S POST- CLOSING OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. IF THERE IS A BUYER
DEFAULT FOR FAILURE TO PROCEED WITH CONSTRUCTION AND
DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROJECT AS REQUIRED BY THIS AGREEMENT, THEN
THE DELAY DAMAGES, AS DEFINED ABOVE, SHALL BE DEEMED TO CONSTITUTE A REASONABLE AND FINAL ESTIMATE OF SELLER’S DAMAGES
AND SHALL BE PAID BY BUYER TO SELLER AS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AS THE NON-DEFAULTING PARTY’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR BREACHES OF THIS AGREEMENT RELATING TO BUYER’S FAILURE TO CONSTUCT AND DEVELOP THE PROJECT AS REQUIRED BY THIS AGREEMENT. SELLER AND
BUYER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE
PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION AND BY THEIR INITIALS IMMEDIATELY BELOW AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ITS TERMS.
THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE PAYMENT OF SUCH
LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS NOT INTENDED AS A FORFEITURE OR PENALTY WITHIN THE MEANING OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 3275 OR 3369,
BUT IS INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES TO NON- DEFAULTING PARTY PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 1671, 1676 AND 1677. THIS SECTION SHALL SURVIVE THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.
THIS SECTION SHALL APPLY ONLY TO BREACHES OF THIS AGREEMENT RELATING TO BUYER’S FAILURE TO CONSTUCT AND DEVELOP PROJECT AS
REQUIRED BY THIS AGREEMENT, AND SHALL NOT OPERATE TO LIMIT OR OTHERWISE RESTRICT THE PARTIES’ RIGHTS AND REMEDIES RELATING TO OTHER DISPUTES.

Each such holder shall (insofar as the rights of Seller are concerned) have the right, at its option after the receipt of the notice or Buyer’s cure period, if any, to cure or remedy any such default if the right to cure is provided under the terms of the security interest. The time for a holder to cure shall be extended, if the holder has undertaken steps to cure, in which case such time will be extended for as long as holder reasonably needs, providing the holder is acting diligently. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to permit or authorize such holder to undertake or continue the construction or completion of the Project (beyond the extent necessary to conserve or protect the improvements or construction already made) without first having expressly assumed Buyer 's remaining obligations to Seller by written agreement satisfactory to Seller. In that event, the holder must agree to complete, in the manner provided in this Agreement, the Project to which the lien or title of such holder relates, and submit satisfactory evidence to Seller that it possesses the qualifications and financial resources necessary to perform such obligations. Any such holder properly completing the Project shall be entitled, upon written request made to Seller, to a Release of Construction Covenants from the Seller.
10.4 Failure of Holder to Complete Improvements. In any case of an uncured default by Buyer in completion of construction of improvements under this Agreement, if the holder of any Deed of Trust creating a lien or encumbrance upon the Property or any part thereof has not thereafter timely exercised the option to construct, or if it has exercised the option and has not thereafter proceeded with construction in the manner required by this Agreement, Seller may purchase the Deed of Trust by payment to the holder of the amount of the unpaid debt. If the ownership of the Property or any party has been vested in the holder, Seller, if it so desires, shall be entitled to a conveyance of the Property , or any part of the Property , from the holder to Seller upon payment to the holder of an amount equal to the sum of the following:
a) Unpaid Deed of Trust at the time title became vested in the holder (less all appropriate credits, including those resulting from collection by lender and application of rentals and income received during foreclosure proceedings).
b) All reasonable expenses with respect to foreclosure.
c) The net expenses, if any (exclusive of overhead), incurred by the holder as a direct result of the Seller approved subsequent management of the Project or part thereof.
d) The cost or value, whichever is less, of any Seller approved improvements made by such holder.
10.5 Right of Seller to Cure Deed of Trust Default.
In the event of an uncured default
by Buyer of any Deed of Trust prior to recordation of a Release of Construction Covenants, and the holder of any such security interest has not exercised its option to complete the Project, after another advance written demand to Buyer and the holder of such security interest, that the default must be cured within an additional 30 days, Seller may cure the default prior to completion of any foreclosure. In such event, Seller shall be entitled to reimbursement from Buyer of all costs and expenses incurred by Seller in curing the default. Seller shall also be entitled to a lien upon the Property to the extent of such costs and disbursements. Any such lien shall be subject to mortgages, deeds of trust or other security instruments executed for the sole purpose of obtaining funds to purchase and develop the Property as authorized herein.
10.6 Rights of Seller to Satisfy Other Liens on the Property After Title Passes.
After the
conveyance of title of the Property to Buyer, and after Buyer has had reasonable time to challenge, cure or satisfy any liens or encumbrances on the Property, or any part thereof, if such lien or encumbrance remains unsatisfied more than sixty (60) days after written notice from Seller to Buyer of Seller’s demand that Buyer satisfy such unsatisfied lien or encumbrance, then the Seller shall have the right to s atisfy any such liens or encumbrances, provided however, that nothing in this Agreement shall require Buyer to pay or make provision for the payment of any tax, assessment, lien or charge as long as the Buyer shall in good faith contest the validity or amount thereof, and provided such delay in payment shall not subject the Property , or part thereof, to forfeiture or sale.
10.7 Estoppel.

15. Risk of Loss.
15.1 Condemnation. If before the Closing any action or proceeding is commenced for the condemnation or exercise of the rights of eminent domain with respect to the Property or any portion of the Property, or if Seller is notified by the duly authorized officer of a duly empowered condemning authority of the intent to commence such action or proceeding (“Condemnation”) and if such Condemnation would materially and adversely affect the use or operation of the Property, have the effect of decreasing the square footage of the buildable area at the Property, or reduce or eliminate access to the Property, then Buyer may either (a) terminate this Agreement, or (b) proceed with the Closing without modifying the terms of this Agreement and without reducing the Purchase Price, on the condition that Seller must assign and turn over, and Buyer will be entitled to keep, all awards for the Condemnation that accrue to Seller; provided, however, if any award is rendered specifically to compensate Seller for Seller’s lost goodwill, such an award shall belong to Seller. Seller may not negotiate, resist, or stipulate to any Condemnation without Buyer’s written consent. Seller must notify Buyer of any notice of Condemnation of all or any portion of the Property within five (5) days after the receipt of such notice, and Buyer must exercise its option(s) as provided in this Section 15.1 within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice.

If Buyer shall fail to provide such written notice of election within ten (10) days after determination of the amount of the Insurance Proceeds to be received with respect to such loss, then Buyer shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement.

This Promissory Note (the “Note”) is made and given to evidence the Seller Loan made by City to Maker pursuant to the terms of that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement between Maker and City dated May 14, 2024 (“ Purchase Agreement”), and pursuant to which Maker purchased from City that certain real property located in the City of Buena Park, County of Orange, California, legally described in Exhibit A to the Purchase Agreement and identified as Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 066-030-31, 066-030-51, 066-030-48, 066-030-52, and 066-030-49 (partial) (the “Property”).
2. Definitions. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning given in the Purchase Agreement, a true and correct copy of which is available from the offices of the Buena Park City Clerk located at 6650 Beach Boulevard Buena Park, CA 90670.
3. Term of Loan and Right of Prepayment.
a. Maturity Date. All accrued interest, if any, and unpaid principal will be due and payable in full without any further demand or notice on or before 12:00 a.m. on the day that is 36 months from the Date of Note.
b. Prepayment. This Note may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time and from time to time without penalty or premium.
4. Security for Note.
-5-
This Note is secured by a Deed of Trust, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing (with Assignment of Rents) executed by Maker which encumbers Maker’s fee simple interest in the Property. After the recording of the Final Parcel Map for the Project Site, the Parties shall execute and record an amended or modified Seller Deed of Trust to change the legal description of the Property to match that reflected in the Final Parcel Map.
5. Interest Calculation.
Except in the case of Default as set forth in Section 8 of this Note, the principal outstanding from time to time on this Note will accrue uncompounded simple interest at the rate of 8.32% per annum. Principal and interest shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America.
Interest shall be computed based on an actual day year and the actual number of days elapsed.
6. Monthly Payment.
Maker will make monthly interest only payments on this Note to the City in an amount equal to _________. Payments must be made on or before the 15 th of each calendar month during
the term of this Note, with the entire principal and any remaining accrued but unpaid interest due in full on or before the Maturity Date. This Note and the Deed of Trust securing this Note are senior encumbrances on the Property and shall not be subordinated except as may be approved in writing in the sole and absolute discretion of City.
7. Acceleration Upon Certain Events or Upon Default.
In the event of any Default under the terms of this Note, the Deed of Trust or under any senior loans, notes or deeds of trust, at the option of the City and after written notice to the Maker, providing Maker with 30 days in which to cure any Default, and such Default not having been cured within 30 days (or if a greater amount of time is reasonably necessary to complete a cure, if actions to cure such Default are not undertaken within said 30- day period and pursued with reasonable diligence thereafter), al l principal and interest due under this Note will immediately become due and payable upon 30- day written notice from the City to the Maker. Failure by the City to exercise such option will not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise it in the event o f any subsequent Default. If Maker fails to take corrective action to cure a Default within the time limit provided in this Note, and providing that the City has been provided with an address for notice for a limited partner, and, if any, a special limited partner of Maker, the City will concurrently with notice to Maker also give written notice of such Default to the limited partner and special limited partner. In such event, the limited partner or the special limited partner will have the same time period as that given to Maker hereunder to cure such Default. Provided, however, if the limited partner or the special limited partner finds it reasonably necessary to remove the general partner of the Maker in order that such parties may cure such Default, then the limited partner or the special limited partner may remove and replace the general partner with a substitute general partner which, in the interim, may be the special limited partner or an entity affiliated with the limited partner and thereafter must be a nonprofit entity reasonably acceptable to the City, such removal and replacement to be completed in accordance with language for the same in the limited partnership agreement of the Maker which has been approved by the City.
Once in place, such replacement general partner may affect a cure of any such Default within the time period set out in this Note provided for the cure or remedy of a Default. The City agrees to -6-
accept on the same basis as if made by Maker any corrective action to cure or remedy any Default which might be tendered by any limited partner or special limited partner (which party will be under no obligation to tender any cure or remedy). Additionally, in the event that a limited partner or special limited partner is precluded from curing a default of the Maker due to inability to remove the general partner of Maker as a result of a bankruptcy, injunction or similar proceeding by or against the Maker or its general partner, providing that the limited partner or special limited partner proceeds promptly and with reasonable diligence to remove the general partner of the Maker under such circumstances and provides the City with evidence reasonably demonstra ting the same, the City agrees to forebear from completing a foreclosure (judicial or non -judicial) during the period during which the limited partner or the special limited partner are so precluded from acting. In no event will the City be precluded from exercising any of its remedies in the event of a Maker Default under this Note if the City’s security becomes or is reasonably likely to become materially jeopardized by a failure to cure a Default or by the Default itself.
Should the undersigned Maker sell, convey, transfer, or dispose of its interest in real property described in the Deed of Trust or any part thereof or interest therein, or agree to do any of the foregoing, without first obtaining the prior written consent of the City (except for a Permitted Transfer, as defined below or in the Deed of Trust), then, at the option of the City, all principal and interest due hereunder shall immediately become due and payable upon 30 days written notice from the City to the Maker. Consent to one transaction of this type will not constitute a waiver of the right to require consent to future or successive transactions. Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, Permitted Transfers (or any other transfer reasonably acceptabl e to the City) will not constitute a Default hereunder and will not accelerate the maturity of this Promissory Note.
The City must make such determination with reasonable promptness, and any transferee under such a transfer must agree to be bound by any and all instruments in favor of the City.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the Deed of Trust, the following transfers shall be permitted without the City’s consent (each a “Permitted Transfer”):
(i) any lease and any contract, pledge or security agreement entered into in accordance with the Maker’s Financing Plan;
(ii) any Permitted Encumbrances;
(iii) Transfers or disposal of building equipment in the ordinary course of operating the Property that is being replaced or that is no longer necessary in connection with the operation of the Property;
(iv) Transfers of portions of the Property that have no material adverse effect on the Property to a Governmental Authority or public or private utility providers for dedication and granting of easements, restrictions, covenants, reservations and rights -of-way in the ordinary course of business for access, water and sewer lines, telephone or other fiber optic or other data transmission lines, electric lines, or other utilities or for other similar purposes; (v) the entry into an agreement of sale, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the Property with an outside closing date no later than the Maturity Date, the consummation of which will result in the payment in full of the Seller Loan; -7-
(vi) the sale, transfer or issuance of stock in any direct or indirect owner in Maker; (vii) the sale, conveyance, or other transfer of direct or indirect ownership interests in Maker so long as, after giving effect to any such transaction, Jose Alberto Lemus (“Key Principal”) remains actively involved with the Project (or following the death or disability of Key Principal, a person reasonably approved by the City);
(viii) any sale, conveyance, or other transfer of direct or indirect ownership interests in Guarantor.
(ix) a transfer (but not the pledge) by devise or descent or by operation of law upon the death or as a result of the incapacity of a natural person of such Person’s indirect (but not direct) interest in Maker to the person or persons lawfully entitled thereto; and (x) a transfer (but not a pledge) made in good faith for estate planning purposes of an individual’s indirect (but not direct) interests in Maker to the spouse or any child, parent, brother, sister, grandchild, son-in-law or daughter-in-law of such individual, or to a trust for the benefit of any one or more of such individuals, or any spouse, child, parent, brother, sister, nephew, niece, aunt, uncle, grandchild, son-in-law or daughter-in-law.
8. Interest on Default.
From and after a Default, the entire outstanding principal balance of this Note will automatically bear an annual interest rate equal to the lesser of 8% compounding annually or the maximum interest rate allowed by law.
9. Costs Paid by Maker.
Maker agrees to pay the following costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees paid or incurred by the City, or as adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction: (a) reasonable costs of collection, costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees paid or incurred in connecti on with the collection or enforcement of this Note, whether or not suit is filed; and (b) costs of suit in such sum as the court may adjudge reasonable as attorneys’ fees in any action to enforce payment of this instrument.
10. Waiver.
To the extent permitted by law, Maker and all persons or entities liable or which may become liable on this Note hereby waive diligence, presentment, protest and demand, notice of protest, dishonor and nonpayment of this instrument, and expressly agree that, without in any way affecting the liability of Maker hereunder, the City hereof may extend the Maturity Date or the time for payment of any payment due hereunder or any other term hereof, accept additional security, release any party liable hereunder or release any security now or hereafter securing this Note. Maker hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the right to plead any and all statutes of limitations as a defense to any demand on this instrument or any deed of trust, security agreement, guarantee or other agreement now or hereafter securing this Note.
11. Nonrecourse.
-8-
If any Default should then occur under this Note or under any other instrument the default of which constitutes a Default on this Note, the City agrees that its rights for any monetary claim as against the Maker and its constituent members or partners will be limited to a proceeding under the Deed of Trust and all other security for the indebtedness evidenced by this Note and that the City will have no right to proceed directly against the Maker and its constituent members or partners for the satisfaction o f any monetary claims that the City may have against the Maker or for any deficiency judgment remaining after foreclosure of any real or personal property securing the obligations owing to City. Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, Maker must indemnify, defend, protect and hold City harmless from and against any and all loss, damage, liability, action, cause of action, cost or expense, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the City, to the extent aris ing as a result of any (i) fraud or intentional and material misrepresentation (meaning a misrepresentation that materially impacts the consideration that the City receives under the agreements, or which served as a material basis for the City entering int o the agreements) by the Maker under or in connection with this Project Loan or any other agreements or documents executed in connection therewith; (ii) intentional material and bad faith waste of the Project encumbered by the Deed of Trust; and (iii) loss es resulting from Maker’s failure to maintain insurance required under the provisions of the Deed of Trust, except to the extent that Maker did not have the legal right to direct payments to acquire and maintain such required insurance because of a bankrup tcy, receivership or similar judicial proceeding. Maker’s obligation to indemnify the City hereof as aforesaid will be recourse obligations of the Maker, and on the occurrence of any of the foregoing events, the City will have the right to proceed directly against the Maker to recover any and all losses, damages, liability, costs and expenses (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and may bring any action and institute any proceeding to obtain a judgment in or following foreclosure for any and all such losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses resulting from such occurrence.
12. Severability.
If any provision of this Note is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or unenforceable, such determination will not affect any other provision of this instrument, and all other provisions hereof will remain valid and in full force and effect.
13. Non-Waiver.
No delay by City in demanding or failure to demand performance hereunder will constitute a waiver by the City of its right to subsequently demand such performance or to exercise any remedies for any Default hereunder. Further, in order to be effective, any waiver of any of the City’s rights and remedies hereunder must be expressed in a writing signed by a duly appointed representative of the City. Further, waiver by the City of any right hereunder will not constitute a waiver of any other right, including, but not limited to, the right to exercise any and all remedies for a different or subsequent event of Default hereunder.

The Promissory Note and all of its terms are incorporated herein by reference and this conveyance shall secure any and all extensions, amendments, modifications or renewals thereof, however evidenced.
AND TO PROTECT THE SECURITY OF THIS DEED OF TRUST, TRUSTOR COVENANTS AND AGREES:
1. That Trustor shall perform its obligations as set forth in the Secured Obligations at the time and in the manner respectively provided therein;
2. That Trustor shall not permit or suffer the use of any of the property for any purpose other than the use for which the same was intended at the time this Deed of Trust was executed;
3. That the Secured Obligations are incorporated in and made a part of this Deed of Trust. Upon default of a Secured Obligation, and after the giving of notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period, the Beneficiary, at its option, may declare the whole of the indebtedness secured hereby to be due and payable. This Deed of Trust shall cover, and the property subject hereto shall include, all property now or hereafter affixed or attached to or incorporated upon the Subject Property in, to or unde r which Trustor now has or hereafter acquires any right, title or interest, which, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall be deemed fixtures and a part of the Subject Property. To the extent any of the property subject to this Deed of Trust consists of rights in action or personal property covered by the UCC, this Deed of Trust shall also constitute a security agreement, and Trustor hereby grants to Beneficiary, as secured party, a security interest in such property, including all proceeds thereof, for the purpose of securing the Secured Obligations. In addition, for the purpose of securing the Secured Obligations, Trustor hereby grants to Beneficiary, as secured party, a security interest in all of the property described herein in, to, or under whi ch Trustor now has or hereafter acquires any right, title or interest, whether present, future or contingent, including, but not limited to, all equipment, inventory, accounts, general intangibles, instruments, documents and chattel paper, as those terms a re defined in the -14-
UCC, and all other personal property of any kind (including, without limitation, money and rights to the payment of money), whether now existing or hereafter created, that are now or at any time hereafter (i) in the possession or control of Beneficiary in any capacity; (ii) erected upon, attached to or appurtenant to the Subject Property; (iii) located or used on the Subject Property or identified for use on the Subject Property (whether stored on the Subject Property or elsewhere); or (iv) used in connection with, arising from, related to, or associated with the Subject Property or any of the personal property described herein, the construction of any improvements on the Subject Property, the ownership, development, maintenance, management or operation of the Subject Property, the use or enjoyment of the Subject Property or the operation of any business conducted thereon, including, without limitation, all such property described as the Trust Estate hereinabove. The security interests granted in this Parag raph 3 are hereinafter severally and collectively called the "Security Interest". The Security Interest shall be self -operative with respect to the real property described herein but Trustor shall execute and deliver on demand such additional security agreements, financing statements and other instruments as may be requested in order to impose the Security Interest more specifically upon the real and personal property encumbered hereby.
The Security Interest, at all times, shall be prior to any other inte rest in the personal property encumbered hereby. Trustor shall act and perform as necessary and shall execute and file all security agreements, financing statements, continuation statements and other documents requested by Beneficiary to establish, maintain and continue the perfected Security Interest. Trustor, on demand, shall promptly pay all costs and expenses of filing and recordation, to ensure the continued priority of the Security Interest. Trustor shall not sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of any personal property encumbered hereby without obtaining the prior written consent of Beneficiary, except that the Trustor may, in the ordinary course of business, replace personal property or dispose of personal property that will not be replaced because of its obsolescence.
Unless Beneficiary then agrees otherwise in writing, all proceeds from any permitted sale or disposition in excess of that required for full replacement shall be paid to Beneficiary to be applied on the Note subject to the rights of any senior lenders. Although proceeds of personal property are covered hereby, this shall not be construed to mean that Beneficiary consents to any sale of such personal property. Upon its recordation in the real property records of Orange County, this Deed of Trust shall be effective as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing. In addition, a carbon, photostatic or other reproduced copy of this Deed of Trust and/or any financing statement relating hereto shall be sufficient for filing and/or recording as a financing statement;
4. That, subject to the rights of holders of any senior deed of trust, all rents, profits and income from the property covered by this Deed of Trust are hereby assigned to the Beneficiary for the purpose of discharging the debt hereby secured. Permission is hereby given to Trustor so long as no default exists hereunder after the giving of notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period, to collect such rents, profits and income for use in accordance with the provisions of the Secured Obligations;
5. That, subject to the rights of holders of any senior deed of trust, upon default hereunder or under the aforementioned agreements, and after the giving of notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period, Beneficiary shall be entitled to the appointment of a receiver by any court having jurisdiction, without notice, to take possession and protect the property described herein and operate same and collect the rents, profits and income therefrom;
6. That Trustor will keep the improvements now existing or hereafter erected on the -15-
Subject Property insured against loss by fire and such other hazards, casualties, and contingencies as may be required by applicable provisions of the Secured Obligations, and all such insurance shall be evidenced by standard fire and extended coverage insurance policy or policies. Such policies shall be endorsed with standard mortgage clause with loss payable to the Beneficiary and certificates thereof together with copies of original policies, if requested, shall be deposited with the Beneficiary;
7. To pay before delinquency any taxes and assessments affecting said Property; to pay, when due, all encumbrances, charges and liens, with interest, on said Property or any part thereof which appear to be prior or superior hereto; and to pay all costs, fees, and expenses of this trust. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Deed of Trust, Trustor shall not be required to pay and discharge any such tax, assessment charge or levy so long as Trustor is contesting the legality thereof in g ood faith and by appropriate proceedings, and Trustor has adequate funds to pay any liabilities contested pursuant to this Paragraph 7;
8. To keep said property in good condition and repair, subject to ordinary wear and tear, casualty and condemnation, not to remove or demolish any buildings thereon; to complete or restore promptly and in good and workmanlike manner any building which may be constructed, damaged, or destroyed thereon and to pay when due all claims for labor performed and materials furnished therefor; to comply with all laws affecting said property or requiring any alterations or improvements to be made thereon (subject to Trustor's right to contest the validity or applicability of laws or regulations); not to commit or permit bad faith waste thereof; not to commit, suffer or permit any act upon said property in violation of law and/or covenants, conditions and/or restrictions affecting said property; not to permit or suffer any material alteration of or addition to the buildings or improvements hereafter constructed in or upon said Subject Property without the consent of the Beneficiary, which consent shall not be unreasonabl y withheld, conditioned or delayed;
9. To appear in and defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the security hereof or the rights or powers of Beneficiary or Trustee, and to pay all costs and expenses, including cost of evidence of title and reasonable attorney's fees in a reaso nable sum, in any such action or proceeding in which Beneficiary or Trustee may appear;
10. Should Trustor fail, after the giving of notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period, to make any payment or do any act as herein provided, then Beneficiary or Trustee, but without obligation so to do and without notice to or demand upon Trustor and without releasing Trustor from any obligation hereof, may make or do the same in such manner and to such extent as either may deem necessary to protect the security hereof. Following default, after the giving of notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period, Beneficiary or Trustee, being authorized to enter upon said property for such purposes, may commence, appear in and/or defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect the security hereof or the rights or powers of Beneficiary o r Trustee; may pay, purchase, contest or compromise any encumbrance, charge, or lien which in the judgment of either appears to be prior or superior hereto; and, in exercising any such powers, may pay necessary expenses, employ counsel, and pay his reasonable fees;
11. Beneficiary shall have the right to pay all insurance premiums required by the Secured Obligations when due should Trustor fail to make any required premium payments after -16-
the giving of notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period. All such payments made by the Beneficiary shall be added to the sums secured hereby;
12. To pay immediately and without demand all sums so expended by Beneficiary or Trustee, under permission given under this Deed of Trust, with interest from date of expenditure, at the highest rate of interest permitted by law;
13. That the funds to be advanced hereunder are to be used in accordance with applicable provisions of the Secured Obligations; upon the failure of Trustor to do so, after the giving of notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period, Trustor shall be in default hereunder;
14. Trustor further covenants that it will not voluntarily create, suffer, or permit to be created against the Subject Property subject to this Deed of Trust any lien or liens except as authorized by Beneficiary and/or as provided and/or authorized in the Secured Obligations and further that it will keep and maintain the property free from the claims of all persons supplying labor or materials which will enter into the construction of any and all buildings now being erected or to be erected on said premises. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Deed of Trust, Trustor shall not be obligated to pay any claims for labor, materials or services which Trustor in good faith disputes and is diligently contesting, provided that Trustor shall, a t Beneficiary's written request, within thirty (30) days after the filing of any claim or lien (but in any event, and without any requirement that Beneficiary must first provide a written request prior to foreclosure) record in the Office of the Recorder of Orange County, a surety bond in the amount required by law to protect against a claim of lien, or provide such other security reasonably satisfactory to Beneficiary;
15. That any and all improvements made or about to be made upon the premises covered by this Deed of Trust and all plans and specifications, comply with all applicable municipal ordinances and regulations and all other applicable regulations made or promul gated, now or hereafter, by lawful authority, and that the same will upon completion comply with all such applicable municipal ordinances and regulations and with the rules of the applicable fire rating or inspection organization, bureau, association or office.
IT IS MUTUALLY AGREED THAT:
16. Trustor confirms that if Trustor should sell, enter into a contract of sale, convey, or in any way transfer all or any interest of Trustor in the Real Property encumbered by this Deed of Trust or suffer Trustor's title or any interest therein to be div ested, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, unless the same is a Permitted Transfer as defined in the Note, without the prior written consent of the Beneficiary being first obtained, then Beneficiary shall have the right, at Beneficiary's sole option, to declare all sums payable under the Note secured hereby immediately due and payable in full, irrespective of the maturity date otherwise specified in the Note. No waiver of this right shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the Beneficiary. Consent by the Beneficiary to any one such transaction shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to require such consent to future or successive transactions. Further, upon default under one of the Secured Obligations, and after the giving of notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period provided therein, the Beneficiary, at its option, may declare the whole of the indebtedness secured hereby -17-
to be immediately due and payable in full, irrespective of the maturity date otherwise specified in the Note;
17. As provided more specifically in the Secured Obligations, should the Property or any part thereof be taken or damaged by reason of any public improvement or condemnation proceeding, or damaged by fire, or earthquake, or in any other manner, subject to the rights of any senior lenders, Beneficiary shall be entitled to all compensation, awards, and other payments or relief therefor which are not used to reconstruct, restore or otherwise improve the Property or part thereof that was taken or damaged, and shall be entitled at its option to commence, appear in and prosecute in its own name, any action or proceedings, or to make any compromise or settlement, in connection with such taking or damage subject to the rights of any senior lenders. All such compensation, awards, damages, rights of action and proceeds which are not used to reconstruct, restore or otherwise improve the property or part thereof that was taken or damaged, including the proceeds of any policies of fire and other insurance affecting said property, are hereby assigned to Beneficiary subject to the rights of any senior lenders;
18. Notwithstanding Sections 16 and 17, in the event that a portion of the Property is taken for a public improvement or pursuant to a condemnation proceeding and the residential rental housing units on the Property remain intact and continue to be owned and operated by Trustor in conformance with the City Development Agreement, Beneficiary shall not declare all sums due and payable under the Note, nor shall the Beneficiary be entitled to any compensation, awards and other payments therefor, provided that s ubject to the rights of any senior lenders, such compensation, awards and other payments are used for (1) paying principal and interest owed on any senior loan, (2) making improvements to the Property that are approved by Beneficiary, in its reasonable discretion, or (3) payment of principal owing under the Note. In the event that Trustor receives such compensation, awards or other payments and fails to expend the funds in conformance with subsections (1) and (2) this section within thirty (30) days of rec eipt of such funds, Trustor shall be in default under this Deed of Trust;
19. Upon default by Trustor in taking any action or in making any payments provided for herein, or in the Secured Obligations, if Trustor shall fail to perform any covenant or agreement in this Deed of Trust within thirty (30) days after written demand the refor by Beneficiary (or, in the event that more than thirty (30) days is reasonably required to cure such default, should Trustor fail to promptly commence such cure, and diligently prosecute same to completion), after the giving of notice and the expiration of any applicable cure period, Beneficiary may declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable by delivery to Trustee of written declaration of default and demand for sale, and of written notice of default and of election to cause the prope rty to be sold, which notice Trustee shall cause to be duly filed for record and Beneficiary may foreclose this Deed of Trust. Beneficiary shall also deposit with Trustee this Deed of Trust and all documents evidencing expenditures secured hereby;
20. After the lapse of such time as may then be required by law following the recordation of said notice of default, and notice of sale having been given as then required by law, Trustee, without demand on Trustor, shall sell said property at the time and place fixed by it in said notice of sale, either as a whole or in separate parcels, and in such order as it may determine at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States, payable at time of sale. Trustee may postpone sale of all or any portion of said property by public -18-
announcement at the time and place of sale, and from time to time thereafter may postpone the sale by public announcement at the time and place of sale, and from time to time thereafter may postpone the sale by public announcement at the time fixed by the preceding postponement.
Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser its Deed conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in the Deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulne ss thereof. Any person, including Trustor, Trustee or Beneficiary, may purchase at the sale. The Trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale to payment of (1) the expenses of such sale, together with the reasonable expenses of this trust including therein reasonable Trustee's fees or attorney's fees for conducting the sale, and the actual cost of publishing, recording, mailing and posting notice of the sale; (2) the cost of any search and/or other evidence of title procured in connection with such sale and revenue stamps on Trustee's Deed; (3) all sums expended under the terms hereof, not then repaid, with accrued interest at the maximum rate allowed by law; (4) all other sums then secured hereby; and (5) the remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally entitled thereto;
21. Beneficiary may from time to time substitute a successor or successors to any Trustee named herein or acting hereunder to execute this Deed of Trust. Upon such appointment, and without conveyance to the successor trustee, the latter shall be vested wi th all title, powers, and duties conferred upon any Trustee herein named or acting hereunder. Each such appointment and substitution shall be made by written instrument executed by Beneficiary, containing reference to this Deed of Trust and its place of record, which, when duly recorded in the proper office of the county or counties in which the property is situated, shall be conclusive proof of proper appointment of the successor trustee;
22. The pleading of any statute of limitations as a defense to any and all obligations secured by this Deed of Trust is hereby waived to the full extent permissible by law;
23. Upon written request of Beneficiary stating that all sums secured hereby have been paid and all obligations secured hereby have been satisfied, and upon surrender of this Deed of Trust to Trustee for cancellation and retention and upon payment of its f ees, Trustee shall reconvey, without warranty, the property then held hereunder. The recitals in such reconveyance of any matters of fact shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. The grantee in such reconveyance may be described as "the person or persons legally entitled thereto";
24. The trust created hereby is irrevocable by Trustor;
25. This Deed of Trust applies to, inures to the benefit of, and binds all parties hereto, their heirs, legatees, devisees, administrators, executors, successors, and assigns. The term "Beneficiary" shall include not only the original Beneficiary hereunde r but also any future successor in interest to Beneficiary. In this Deed of Trust, whenever the context so requires, the masculine gender includes the feminine and/or neuter, and the singular number includes the plural.
All obligations of Trustor hereunder are joint and several;
26. Trustee accepts this Trust when this Deed of Trust, duly executed and acknowledged, is made public record as provided by law. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Trustee is not obligated to notify any party hereto of pending sale under this Deed of Trust or of any action or proceeding in which Trustor, Beneficiary, or Trustee shall be a party unless -19-
brought by Trustee;
27. The undersigned Trustor requests that a copy of any notice of default and of any notice of sale hereunder be mailed to it at the address set forth in the Deed of Trust;
28. Trustor agrees at any time and from time to time, upon receipt of a written request from Beneficiary, to furnish to Beneficiary detailed statements in writing of income, rents, profits, and operating expenses of the premises, and the names of the occupants and tenants in possession, together with the expiration dates of their leases and full information regarding all rental and occupancy agreements, and the rents provided for by such leases and rental and occupancy agreements, and such other information regarding the premises and their use as may be requested by Beneficiary;
29. As is provided more specifically in the Secured Obligations, the obligations of Trustor thereunder are nonrecourse obligations of the Trustor. The sole recourse of Beneficiary shall be the exercise of its rights against the Property;
30. Notwithstanding specific provisions of this Deed of Trust, non- monetary performance hereunder shall not be deemed to be in default where delays or defaults are by reason of any event beyond the reasonable control of either Party, including without limitation, by labor disputes, fire, unusual delay in deliveries, weather or acts of God, terrorism, delay in the issuance of permits or approvals, acts of governmental entities, or unavoidable casualties. An extension of time for any such cause (a "Force Majeure Delay") shall be for the period of the enforced delay and shall commence to run from the time of the commencement of the cause. If, however, notice by the party claiming such extension is sent to the other party more than thirty (30) days after the commencement of the cause, the period shall commence to run only thirty (30) days prior to the giving of such notice. Times of performance under this Deed of Trust may also be extended in writing by the Beneficiary and Trustor;
31. If the rights and liens created by this Deed of Trust shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable as to any part of the obligations described herein, the unsecured portion of such obligations shall be completely performed and paid prior to the performance and payment of the remaining and secured portion of the obligations, and all performance and payments made by Trustor shall be considered to have been performed and paid on and applied first to the complete payment of the unsecured portion of the obligations;
32. (a) Subject to the extensions of time set forth in Paragraph 31, and subject to the further provisions of this Paragraph 33, failure or delay by Trustor to perform any term or provision respectively required to be performed under the Secured Obligations or this Deed of Trust constitutes a default under this Deed of Trust;
(b) Beneficiary shall give written notice of default to Trustor, specifying the default complained of by the Beneficiary. Delay in giving such notice shall not constitute a waiver of any default nor shall it change the time of default; (c) Any failures or delays by Beneficiary in asserting any of its rights and remedies as to any default shall not operate as a waiver of any default or of any such rights or remedies. Delays by Beneficiary in asserting any of its rights and remedies shall not deprive -20-
Beneficiary of its right to institute and maintain any actions or proceedings which it may deem necessary to protect, assert, or enforce any such rights or remedies; (d) If an event of default occurs under the terms of this Deed of Trust, prior to exercising any remedies hereunder or thereunder, Beneficiary shall give Trustor written notice of such default. If the default is reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) days, Trustor shall have such period to effect a cure prior to exercise of remedies by Beneficiary under this Deed of Trust. If the default is such that it is not reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) days, and Trustor (i) initiat es corrective action within said period, and (ii) diligently and in good faith works to effect a cure as soon as reasonably possible, then Trustor shall have such additional time as is reasonably necessary to cure the default prior to exercise of any remedies by Beneficiary.
In no event shall Beneficiary be precluded from exercising remedies if its security becomes or is about to become materially jeopardized by any failure to cure a default; (e) If an event of default occurs under the terms of the Secured Obligations, prior to exercising any remedies hereunder or thereunder, Beneficiary shall give Trustor notice of such default. As is provided more specifically in the Secured Obligations, if the default is reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) days, Trustor shall have such period to effect a cure prior to exercise of remedies by the Beneficiary under the Secured Obligations, or this Deed of Trust. If the default is such that it is not reasonably capable of being cured within thirty (30) days, and Trustor (i) initiates corrective action within said period, and (ii) diligently and in good faith works to effect a cure as soon as reasonably possible, then Trustor shall have such additional time as is reasonably necessary to cure the default prior to exercise of any remedies by Beneficiary.
In no event shall Beneficiary be precluded from exercising remedies if its security becomes or is about to become materially jeopardized by any failure to cure a default.
33. This Deed of Trust shall be recorded
as a condition of and at the Closing of Escrow
for Maker’s purchase of the Subject Property from City, and shall be recorded junior only to the grant deed by which Buyer takes title and senior to all and any other liens, mortgages, trust of trust, or other encumbrances on Maker’s fee simple interest in the Subject Property, expressly including but not limited to any construction financing that is contemplated in the Purchase Agreement.

2. NOTICE TO INTERESTED PARTIES OF CONSTRUCTION COVENANTS. The Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is available for inspection and copying at the Seller’s offices located 6650 Beach Blvd., Second Floor, Buena Park, California 910622, contains certain development covenants running with title to the Property, including but not limited to those set forth below (all section references are to the Agreement), with all such development covenants being expressly into this Declaration even if not listed below:
9. Development of the Property.
9.1 The Project . Buyer covenants to improve and develop the Project consistent with the Approvals; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Buyer’s development obligations with respect to the “Project” and “Approvals” under this Agreement shall be deemed modified to incorporate any modifications to the Project or Approvals or permits therefore approved by Seller and/or applicable department thereof or any other Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Project to the extent the approval of such Governmental Authority is required. This covenant to develop the Project is a material inducement for Seller’s willingness to sell the Property to Buyer. After the Closing Buyer agrees, at its sole cost and expense, to improve and develop the Project Site for the Project, substantially similar to that depicted in the site plans attached to this Agreement as Exhibit “C”, provided that the final Project to be developed by Buyer on the Project Site shall be as described in the Approvals and building permits.

9.3 Schedule of Performance. Following the Closing, Buyer shall proceed with development of the Project on the Project Site in accordance with the times set in the Schedule of Performance attached hereto as Exhibit H; provided that, the deadlines set forth in such Schedule of Performance shall be deemed extended to account for Excusable Delays. An extension of time for any such cause shall be for the period of the Excusable Delay and shall commence to run from the time of the commencement of the cause, if notice by the party claiming such extension is sent to the other party within sixty (60) days of the commencement of the cause. If notice is sent after such sixty (60) day period, then the extension shall commence to run no sooner than sixty (60) days prio r to the giving of such notice. Times of performance under this Agreement may also be extended in writing by the mutual agreement of the City Manager and Buyer.

10.3 Notice of Default to Deed of Trust Holders; Right to Cure. Whenever Seller
shall deliver any notice or demand to Buyer, with respect to any breach or default by Buyer following the Closing, the Seller shall, at the same time, deliver to each holder of record of any financing instrument authorized by this Agreement who has requested in writing said notices from the Seller, a copy of such notice or demand. Each such holder shall (insofar as the rights of Seller are concerned) have the right, at its option after the receipt of the notice or Buyer’s cure period, if any, to cure or remedy any such default if the right to cure is provided under the terms of the security interest. The time for a holder to cure shall be extended, if the holder has undertaken steps to cure, in which case such time will be extended for as long as holder reasonably needs, providing the holder is acting diligently.
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to permit or authorize such holder to undertake or continue the construction or completion of the Project (beyond the extent necessary to conserve or protect the improvements or construction already made) without
first having expressly assumed Buyer 's remaining obligations to Seller by written agreement satisfactory to Seller. In that event, the holder must agree to complete, in the manner provided in this Agreement, the Project to which the lien or title of such holder relates, and submit satisfactory evidence to Seller that it possesses the qualifications and financial resources necessary to perform such obligations. Any such holder properly completing the Project shall be entitled, upon written request made to Se ller, to a Release of Construction Covenants from the Seller.
10.4 Failure of Holder to Complete Improvements .

default by Buyer in completion of construction of improvements under this Agreement, if the holder of any Deed of Trust creating a lien or encumbrance upon the Property or any part thereof has not thereafter timely exercised the option to construct, or if it has exercised the option and has not thereafter proceeded with construction in the manner required by this Agreement, Seller may purchase the Deed of Trust by payment to the holder of the amount of the unpaid debt. If the owner ship of the Property or any party has been vested in the holder, Seller, if it so desires, shall be entitled to a conveyance of the Property, or any part of the Property, from the holder to Seller upon payment to the holder of an amount equal to the sum of the following:
a) Unpaid Deed of Trust at the time title became vested in the holder (less all appropriate credits, including those resulting from collection by lender and application of rentals and income received during foreclosure proceedings).
b) All reasonable expenses with respect to foreclosure.
c) The net expenses, if any (exclusive of overhead), incurred by the holder as a direct result of the Seller approved subsequent management of the Project or part thereof.
d) The cost or value, whichever is less, of any Seller approved improvements made by such holder.
10.5 Right of Seller to Cure Deed of Trust Default.
In the event of an uncured
default by Buyer of any Deed of Trust prior to recordation of a Release of Construction Covenants, and the holder of any such security interest has not exercised its option to complete the Project, after another advance written demand to Buyer and the holder of such security interest, that the default must be cured within an additional 30 days, Seller may cure the default prior to completion of any foreclosure. In such event, Seller shall be entitled to reimbursement from Buyer of all costs and expenses incurred by Seller in curing the default. Seller shall also be entitled to a lien upon the Property to the extent of such costs and disbursements. Any such lien shall be subject to mortgages, deeds of trust or other security instruments executed for the sole purpose of obtaining funds to purchase and develop the Property as authorized herein.
10.6 Rights of Seller to Satisfy Other Liens on the Property After Title Passes .
After the conveyance of title of the Property to Buyer, and after Buyer has had reasonable
time to challenge, cure or satisfy any liens or encumbrances on the Property , or any part thereof, if such lien or encumbrance remains unsatisfied more than sixty (60) days after written notice from Seller to Buyer of Seller’s demand that Buyer satisfy such unsatisfied lien or encumbrance, then the Seller shall have the right to s atisfy any such liens or encumbrances, provided however, that nothing in this Agreement shall require Buyer to pay or make provision for the payment of any tax, assessment, lien or charge as long as the Buyer shall in good faith contest the validity or amount thereof, and provided such delay in payment shall not subject the Property, or part thereof, to forfeiture or sale.

Seller acknowledges that any statement delivered pursuant to this subsection may be relied upon by any purchaser or owner of all or a portion of the Property and/or any improvements thereon or by the holder of such deed of trust or security interest or by any assignee of such holder or anyone claiming by, under or through such holder.

DISCUSSION
On June 27, 2023, the City Council approved a contract with Willdan Financial Services to conduct a comprehensive Development Impact Fee Study (DIF) for the City. Development impact fees are a one-time charge to new development imposed under the California Mitigation Fee Act. Under the California Mitigation Fee Act (Government Code 66000 et seq), the city is authorized to impose impact fees on new development projects to pay for the infrastructure and facilities needed to accommodate the new developments. Impact fees must be adopted based on findings of a reasonable relationship between the development paying the fee, the size of the fee, and the use of fee revenues. Currently, the City has two development impact fees, a park-in-lieu fee, which was first adopted in 1991 and later updated in 2002, and a traffic impact fee, which was first adopted in 1993 and has never been updated. The objective of the development impact fee study is to identify the financial impact future developments will have on public services and infrastructure and ensure new developments pay the proportional costs associated with the City's growth. This report calculates and presents recommended amendments and additions to development impact fees that will enable the city to expand its inventory of public facilities as new developments create more demands for service.
The City utilizes its Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) to identify projects to improve public facilities, address maintenance issues, and facility capacity concerns or limitations. The CIP includes projects that improve parks, utility improvements, and streets among other capital projects. The development impact fees collected for new developments support the funding sources used to fund these projects. For example, park-in-lieu fees are collected upon building permit issuance for all new residential dwelling units in the City. The park in-lieu funds collected are used towards park improvements. Similarly, traffic impact fees are collected based on the net increase in the number of vehicle trips a business or use generates. The traffic impact fees are used to enhance the City’s transportation systems.
In addition to reviewing the amount and calculation methodology for the City’s current impact fees, Willdan also studied and provided recommendations on other eligible development impact fees that the City should consider. These new development impact fees include an affordable housing in-lieu fee, water impact fee, and sewer impact fee.
Affordable Housing In-Lieu Fee
The 2021-2029 General Plan Housing Element required the city to plan for the development of 8,919 new residential units in the City over the eight-year housing cycle. Approximately 50% of the required units must be for affordable housing at various income levels. The primary method utilized by the City to accomplish this was the creation of a Housing Incentive Overlay that allows specified non-residentially-zoned properties to be redeveloped with residential or mixed-use residential developments in exchange for providing a percentage of those new units as affordable housing. While developers will be Attachments
Buena Park - Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Update - Final Draft - 5-1-24.pdf required to construct a majority of the affordable units within the proposed development, the creation of an affordable housing in-lieu fee will allow some flexibility for developers wishing to make an in-lieu payment instead of constructing the units. The proposed affordable housing in-lieu fee is not charged under the Mitigation Fee Act, but is rather an expression of the City's land use regulation and authority to enhance the public welfare. This fee was determined based on an analysis of household income and spending generated by the new market rate households renting or buying new units in Buena Park.
The affordable housing in-lieu fee represents the difference between what new households can afford to pay and the cost of developing modest housing units to accommodate lower income households. The analysis determined the housing impact fee to be charged on new rental and for-sale housing to mitigate impacts on affordable housing needs.
Water and Sewer Impact Fees
The study also examined and recommended Water and Sewer impact fees. While the City operates these utilities under enterprise funds, there are additional projects needed to accommodate demand from new development. These higher demands are anticipated over a 10-year period and cannot be factored in the enterprise funds. Thus, the study recommends impact fees for these utilities given the higher demands on the City's water and sewer utility systems. These impact fees will assist the CIP in planning for expansions of current facilities to serve new the developments.
This Development Impact Fee report uses the most current growth forecasts and CIP plans to update the City's existing fee program to ensure that the fee program accurately represents the facility needs resulting from new development. The study updates and identifies the maximum justified park-in-lieu and traffic impact fees, as well as the maximum justified fees for three new fee categories (water, sewer, and affordable housing).
The purpose of this study session is to present the findings of the Development Impact Fee study and seek City Council direction regarding the implementation of the fees discussed in the report. Should the City Council wish to proceed, this item will be noticed pursuant to the Government Code requirements for fee adoption at a future public meeting.

3 Executive Summary
This report summarizes an analysis of development impact fees needed to support future development in the City of Buena Park through 2045. It is the City’s intent that the costs representing future development’s share of public facilities and capital improvements be imposed on that development in the form of a development impact fee, also known as a public facilities fee. The public facilities and improvements included in this analysis are divided into the fee categories listed below:
• Parks
• Transportation
• Water
• Sewer
• Affordable Housing In-Lieu
Background and Study Objectives
The primary policy objective of a development impact fee program is to ensure that new development pays the capital costs associated with growth. Although growth also imposes operating costs, there is not a similar system to generate revenue from new development for services. The primary purpose of this report is to calculate and present fees that will enable the City to expand its inventory of public facilities , as new development creates increases in service demands.
The City collects public facilities fees under authority granted by the Mitigation Fee Act (the Act), contained in California Government Code Sections 66000 et seq . Th is report provides the necessary findings required by the Act for adoption of the fees presented in the fee schedules contained herein.
The City programs development impact fee-funded capital projects through its Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). Using a CIP allows the City to identify and direct its fee revenue to public facilities projects that will accommodate future growth. By programming fee revenues to specific capital projects, the City can help ensure a reasonable relationship between new development and the use of fee revenues as required by the Mitigation Fee Act.
The water and sewer facilities impact fees are new fees that are not currently charged by the City.
If adopted by the City Council, these fees would provide a funding source from new development to fund its proportional share of capacity expanding water and sewer facilities.
The affordable housing in-lieu fees are not charged under the Mitigation Fee Act, rather, they are an expression of the City’s land use regulation authority to enhance the public welfare.
The affordable housing nexus analysis examines the household income and spending generated by the new market rate households renting or buying new units in Buena Park. Using the IMPLAN economic model, the household spending associated with new development is translated into new induced job growth. These induced jobs will be at various wage rates; though many induced jobs will earn lower wages. Low-wage households cannot reasonably afford to pay for market rate housing in Buena Park. Consequently, an affordable housing in-lieu fee can be justified to bridge the difference between what these new households can afford to pay and the cost of developing modest housing units to accommodate lower income households associated with induced job growth.
Facility Standards and Costs
There are three approaches used to calculate facilities standards and allocate the costs of planned facilities to accommodate growth in compliance with the Mitigation Fee Act requirements in this study.
City of Buena Park Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Update 4 The existing inventory approach is based on a facility standard derived from the City’s existing level of facilities and existing demand for services. This approach results in no facility deficiencies attributable to existing development. This approach is often used when a long -range plan for new facilities is not available. Future facilities to serve growth will be identified through the City’s annual CIP and budget process and/or completion of a new facility master plan. This approach is used to calculate the parks and recreation facilities fees in this report.
The planned facilities approach allocates costs based on the ratio of planned facilities that serve new development to the increase in demand associated with new development. This approach is appropriate when specific planned facilities that only benefit new development can be identified, or when the specific share of facilities benefiting new development can be identified. Examples include street improvements to avoid deficient levels of service or a sewer trunk line extension to a previously undeveloped area. This approach is used for the water, transportation, and sewer facilities fees in this report.
The system plan approach is based on a master facility plan in situations where specific needed facilities serve both existing and new development. This approach allocates existing and planned facilities across existing and new development to determine new development’s fair share of facility needs. This approach is used when it is not possible to differentiate the benefits of new facilities between new and existing development. This approach is not used in this report.
Use of Fee Revenues
Impact fee revenue must be spent on new facilities or expansion of current facilities to serve new development. Facilities can be generally defined as capital acquisition items with a useful life greater than five years. Impact fee revenue can be spent on capital facilities to serve new development, including but not limited to land acquisition, construction of buildings, construction of infrastructure, the acquisition of vehicles or equipment , information technology, software licenses and equipment.
In that the City cannot predict with certainty how and when development within the City will occur during the planning horizon assumed in this study, the City may need to update and revise the project lists funded by the fees documented in this study. Any substitute projects should be funded within the same facility category, and the substitute projects must still benefit and have a relationship to new development. The City could identify any changes to the projects funded by the impact fees when it updates the CIP. The impact fees could also be updated if significant changes to the projects funded by the fees are anticipated.

Other Funding Needed
Impact fees may only fund the share of public facilities related to new development in Buena Park. They may not be used to fund the share of facility needs generated by existing development or by development outside of the City. As shown in Table E.3, approximately $31.8 million in additional funding will be needed to complete the facility projects the City currently plans to develop if fees are adopted at the maximum justified fee level . The “ Additional Funding Required” column shows non-impact fee funding required to fund a share of the improvements partially funded by impact fees. Non-fee funding is needed because these facilities are needed partially to remedy existing deficiencies and partly to accommodate new development. To the extent that the City adopts fees that are lower than the maximum justified amount, the non -fee funding requirements may increase, depending on the fee category and methodology.
The City will need to identify alternative funding sources to fund existing development’s share of the planned facilities. Potential sources of revenue include but are not limited to existing or new general fund revenues, existing or new taxes, special assessments, and grants.

7 1. Introduction
This report presents an analysis of the need for public facilities to accommodate new development in the City of Buena Park . This chapter provides background for the study and explains the study approach under the following sections:
▪ Public Facilities Financing in California;
▪ Study Objectives;
▪ Fee Program Maintenance;
▪ Study Methodology; and
▪ Organization of the Report.
Public Facilities Financing in California
The changing fiscal landscape in California during the past 45 years has steadily undercut the financial capacity of local governments to fund infrastructure. Three dominant trends stand out:
▪ The passage of a string of tax limitation measures, starting with Proposition 13 in 1978 and continuing through the passage of Proposition 218 in 1996; ▪ Declining popular support for bond measures to finance infrastructure for the next generation of residents and businesses; and
▪ Steep reductions in federal and state assistance.
Faced with these trends, many cities and counties have had to adopt a policy of “growth pays its own way.” This policy shifts the burden of funding infrastructure expansion from existing ratepayers and taxpayers onto new development. This funding shift has been accomplished primarily through the imposition of assessments, special taxes, and development impact fees also known as public facilities fees. Assessments and special taxes require the approval of property owners and are appropriate when the funded facilities are directly related to the developing property. Development impact fees, on the other hand, are an appropriate funding source for facilities that benefit all development jurisdiction -wide. Development impact fees need only a majority vote of the legislative body for adoption.
Study Objectives
The primary policy objective of a public facilities fee program is to ensure that new development pays the capital costs associated with growth. Mobility Implementation Program M-22 of the City’s General Plan states: “ Periodically evaluate development impact fees to ensure that circulation infrastructure funding required of new development or redevelopment projects is adequate to improve and/or maintain Buena Park’s circulation system to meet Level of Service standards .” The primary purpose of this report is to establish new impact fees and update the City’s existing impact fees based on the most current available facility plans and growth projections. The maximum justified fees will enable the City to expand its inventory of public facilities as new development leads to increases in service demands. This report supports the General Plan policies stated above.
The City collects public facilities fees under authority granted by the Mitigation Fee Act (the Act) , contained in California Government Code Sections 66000 et seq. Th is report provides the necessary findings required by the Act for adoption of the fees presented in the fee schedules presented in this report.
City of Buena Park Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Update 8 Buena Park is forecast to see moderate growth through this study’s planning horizon of 2045.
This growth will create an increase in demand for public services and the facilities required to deliver them. Given the revenue challenges described above, Buena Park has decided to continue to use a development impact fee program to ensure that new development funds its share of facility costs associated with growth. This report makes use of the latest growth forecasts and facility plans to update the City’s existing fee program to ensure that the fee program accurately represents the facility needs resulting from new development.
Fee Program Maintenance
Once a fee program has been adopted it must be properly maintained to ensure that the revenue collected adequately funds the facilities needed by new development. To avoid collecting inadequate revenue, the inventories of existing facilities and costs for planned facilities must be updated periodically for inflation, and the fees recalculated to reflect the higher costs. The use of established indices for each facility included in the inventories (land, building s, and equipment), such as the California Construction Cost Index, is necessary to accurately adjust the impact fees.
For a list of recommended indices, see Chapter 9.
While fee updates using inflation indices are appropriate for annual or periodic updates to ensure that fee revenues keep up with increases in the costs of public facilities, it is recommended to conduct more extensive updates of the fee documentation and calculation (such as this study) when significant new data on growth forecasts and/or facility plans become available. For further detail on fee program implementation, see Chapter 9.
Study Methodology
Development impact fees are calculated to fund the cost of facilities required to accommodate growth. The six steps followed in this development impact fee study include:
1. Estimate existing development and future growth: Identify a base year for existing development and a growth forecast that reflects increased demand for public facilities;
2. Identify facility standards: Determine the facility standards used to plan for new and expanded facilities;
3. Determine facilities required to serve new development: Estimate the total amount of planned facilities, and identify the share required to accommodate new development;
4. Determine the cost of facilities required to serve new development: Estimate the total amount and the share of the cost of planned facilities required to accommodate new development;
5. Calculate fee schedule: Allocate facilities costs per unit of new development to calculate the development impact fee schedule; and
6. Identify alternative funding requirements: Determine if any non -fee funding is required to complete projects.
The key public policy issue in development impact fee studies is the identification of facility standards (step #2, above). Facility standards document a reasonable relationship between new development and the need for new facilities. Standards ensure that new development does not fund deficiencies associated with existing development.
Types of Facility Standards
There are three separate components of facility standards:
City of Buena Park Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Update 9 ▪ Demand standards determine the amount of facilities required to accommodate growth, for example, park acres per thousand residents, square feet of library space per capita, or gallons of water per day. Demand standards may also reflect a level of service such as the vehicle volume-to-capacity (V/C) ratio used in traffic planning. ▪ Design standards determine how a facility should be designed to meet expected demand, for example, park improvement requirements and technology infrastructure for City office space. Design standards are typically not explicitly evaluated as part of an impact fee analysis but can have a significant impact on the cost of facilities. Our approach incorporates the cost of planned facilities built to satisfy the City’s facility design standards.
▪ Cost standards are an alternate method for determining the amount of facilities required to accommodate growth based on facility costs per unit of demand. Cost standards are useful when demand standards were not explicitly developed for the facility planning process. Cost standards also enable different types of facilities to be analyzed based on a single measure (cost or value ) and are useful when different facilities are funded by a single fee program. Examples include facility costs per capita, cost per vehicle trip, or cost per gallon of water per day.
New Development Facility Needs and Costs
A number of approaches are used to identify facility needs and costs to serve new development.
This is often a two -step process: (1) identify total facility needs, and (2) allocate to new development its fair share of those needs.
There are three common methods for determining new development’s fair share of planned facilities costs in this study: the existing inventory method, the planned facilities method, and the system plan method. Often the method selected depends on the degree to which the community has engaged in comprehensive facility master planning to identify facility needs.
The formula used by each approach and the advantages and disadvantages of each method is summarized below:
Existing Inventory Method
The existing inventory method allocates costs based on the ratio of existing facilities to demand from existing development as follows:
Current Value of Existing Facilities
Existing Development Demand
Under this method new development will fund the expansion of facilities at the same standard currently serving existing development. The existing inventory method results in no facility deficiencies attributable to existing development. This method is often used when a long -range plan for new facilities is not available. Future facilities to serve growth are identified through an annual CIP and budget process, possibly after completion of a new facility master plan. This approach is used to calculate the parks and recreation facilities fees in this report.
Planned Facilities Method
The planned facilities method allocates costs based on the ratio of planned facility costs to demand from new development as follows:
Cost of Planned Facilities
New Development Demand
This method is appropriate when planned facilities will entirely serve new development, or when a fair share allocation of planned facilities to new development can be estimated. An example of the former is a Wastewater trunk line extension to a previously undeveloped area. An example of the = cost per unit of demand
= cost per unit of demand
City of Buena Park Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Update 10 latter is expansion of an existing library building and book collection, which will be needed only if new development occurs, but which, if built, will in part benefit existing development, as well .
Under this method new development will fund the expansion of facilities at the standards used in the applicable planning documents. This approach is used for the water , transportation, and sewer facilities fees in this report.
System Plan Method
This method calculates the fee based on the value of existing facilities plus the cost of planned facilities, divided by demand from existing plus new development:
Value of Existing Facilities + Cost of Planned Facilities Existing + New Development Demand
This method is useful when planned facilities need to be analyzed as part of a system that benefits both existing and new development. It is difficult, for example, to allocate a new fire station solely to new development when that station will operate as part of an integrated system of fire stations that together achieve the desired level of service.
The system plan method ensures that new development does not pay for existing deficiencies.
Often facility standards based on policies such as those found in Comprehensive Plans are higher than the existing facility standards. This method enables the calculation of the existing deficiency required to bring existing development up to the policy -based standard. The local agency must secure non -fee funding for that portion of planned facilities required to correct the deficiency to ensure that new development receives the level of service funded by the impact fee.
This approach is not used in this report.
Organization of the Report
The determination of a public facilities fee begins with the selection of a planning horizon and development of growth projections for population and employment. These projections are used throughout the analysis of different facility categories and are summarized in Chapter 2.
Chapters 3 through 7 identify facility standards and planned facilities, allocate the cost of planned facilities between new development and other development, and identify the appropriate development impact fee for each of the following facility categories:
▪ Parks
▪ Transportation
▪ Water
▪ Sewer
▪ Affordable Housing In-Lieu
Chapter 8 describes how this nexus studies complies with the requirements of AB 602.
Chapter 9 details the procedures that the City must follow when implementing a development impact fee program. Impact fee program adoption procedures are found in California Government Code Sections 66016 through 66018.
The five statutory findings required for adoption of the maximum justified public facilities fees in accordance with the Mitigation Fee Act are documented in Chapter 10. = cost per unit of demand
11 2. Growth Forecasts
Growth projections are used as indicators of demand to determine facility needs and allocate those needs between existing and new development. This chapter explains the source for the growth projections used in this study based on a 2023 base year and a planning horizon of 2045.
Estimates of existing development and projections of future growth are critical assumptions used throughout this report. These estimates are used as follows:
▪ The estimate of existing development in 2023 is used as an indicator of existing facility demand and to determine existing facility standards. ▪ The estimate of total development at the 2045 planning horizon is used as an indicator of future demand to determine total facilities needed to accommodate growth and remedy existing facility deficiencies, if any. ▪ Estimates of growth from 2023 through 2045 are used to (1) allocate facility costs between new development and existing development, and (2) estimate total fee revenues.
The demand for public facilities is based on the service population , dwelling units or nonresidential development creating the need for the facilities.
Land Use Types
To ensure a reasonable relationship between each fee and the type of development paying the fee, growth projections distinguish between different land use types. The land use types for which impact fees have been calculated for are defined below. ▪ Residential Dwelling Units: All residential dwelling units, including detached and attached one -unit dwellings and all multifamily dwellings including apartments, duplexes and condominiums. Fees are charged based on livable square feet in each unit.
▪ Commercial: All commercial, retail, educational, and service development. ▪ Office: All general, professional, and medical office development. ▪ Industrial: All warehouse, distribution, manufacturing, and other industrial development.
Some developments may include more than one land use type, such as a mixed-use development with both residential and commercial uses. In those cases, the facilities fee would be calculated separately for each land use type.
The City has the discretion to determine which land use type best reflects a development project’s characteristics for purposes of imposing an impact fee and may adjust fees for special or unique uses to reflect the impact characteristics of the use . If a project results in the intensification of use, at its discretion, the City can charge the project the difference in fees between the existing low intensity use and the future high intensity use.
Impact Fees for Accessory Dwelling Units
The California State Legislature recently amended requirements on local agencies for the imposition of development impact fees on accessory dwelling units (ADU) with Assembly Bill AB 68 in 2021. The amendment to California Government Code §65852.2(f)(2) stipulates that local agencies may not impose any impact fees on ADU less than 750 square feet. ADU greater than 750 square feet can be charged impact fees in proportion to the size of the primary dwelling unit.
City of Buena Park Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Update 12 Calculating Impact Fees for Accessory Dwelling Units For ADUs greater than 750 square feet, impact fees can be charged as a percentage of the single family impact fee. The formula is:
𝐴𝐷𝑈 𝑆𝑞𝑢𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝐹𝑒𝑒𝑡
𝑃𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑟𝑦 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑆𝑞𝑢𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝐹𝑒𝑒𝑡 × 𝑆𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑙𝑒 𝐹𝑎𝑚𝑖𝑙𝑦 𝐼𝑚𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑡 𝐹𝑒𝑒 = 𝐴𝐷𝑈 𝐼𝑚𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑡 𝐹𝑒𝑒
In the case of a n 800 square foot ADU and a 1,600 square foot primary r esidence, the impact fees would be 50 percent (800 square feet / 1,600 square feet = 50% ) of the single family dwelling unit fee.
Existing and Future Development
Table 2.1 shows the estimated number of residents, dwelling units, employees, and building square feet in Buena Park , both in 2023 and in 2045. The base year estimates of household residents and dwelling units comes from the California Department of Finance . The 2045 projection of residents was based on an increase of 8,919 dwelling units identified in the City’s Housing Element, multiplied by assumptions of residents per dwelling unit for single family (3.42) and multifamily units (2.79) calculated using the latest American Community Survey data . It assumes that the same ratio of single family to multifamily will be maintained as development occurs.
Base year employees were estimated based on the latest data from the US Census’ OnTheMap application and exclude 762 local government (public administration) employees. Total projected workers in 2045 are identified the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) Connect SoCal Demographics and Growth Forecast Technical Report, September 3, 2020 . The proportion of workers by land use is held consistent with current estimates. The estimates of nonresidential building square feet were estimated by dividing employee counts by the occupancy density factors presented in the following table.

Occupant Densities
All fees in this report are calculated based on dwelling units or building square feet. Occupant density assumptions ensure a reasonable relationship between the size of a development project, the increase in service population associated with the project, and the amount of the fee.
Occupant densities (residents per dwelling unit or workers per building square foot) are the most appropriate characteristics to use for most impact fees. The fee imposed should be based on the land use type that most closely represents the probable occupant density of the development.
The occupancy factors are shown in Table 2.2. The residential density factor is based on data for City of Buena Park Development Impact Fee Nexus Study Update 14 Buena Park from the 2022 U.S. Census’ American Community Survey across all dwelling units , the most recent data available. The nonresidential occupancy factors are derived from data from the Institute of Traffic Engineers Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition.
