Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that moneys are available for the payment of Rental Payments due under the Lease Agreement in any of the funds and accounts established under the Indenture (including as a result of the availability of insurance proceeds), such Rental Payments will not be abated as provided above but, rather, will be payable by the City as a special obligation payable solely from said funds and accounts.

Substitution, Addition and Removal of Property
General. The Authority and the City may amend the Lease Agreement to substitute alternate property for any portion of the Property, to release a portion of the Property from the Lease Agreement or to add additional property to the encumbrance of the Lease Agreement, with the written consent of the Insurer (so long as the Insurer is not in default on any obligation under the Policy) and upon compliance with all of the conditions set forth in the Lease Agreement and described below. After a substitution or release, the portion of the Property for which the substitution or release has been effected will be released from the leasehold encumbrance of the Lease Agreement.

The Lease Agreement provides that there will be no reduction in or abatement of the Base Rental Payments due from the City thereunder as a result of such substitution, release or addition. Any such 2103
10 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
substitution, release or addition is subject to the following specific conditions precedent to such substitution, release or addition:
(a) a Written Certificate of the City to the effect that the Property, as constituted after such substitution, release or addition: (i) has an annual fair rental value at least equal to the maximum Base Rental Payments payable by the City in any Rental Period, and (ii) has a useful life in excess of the final maturity of any Outstanding Bonds.
(b) with respect to any substituted or added property, the City obtains or causes to be obtained a CLTA or ALTA title insurance policy or policies with respect to the Property (as such term will be defined after such substitution or addition) that when taken together with other title insurance policies covering portions of the Property other than such substituted or added property, will be in an amount at least equal to the aggregate principal amount of any Outstanding Bonds, of the type and with the endorsements described in the Lease Agreement; and
(c) the City, the Authority and the Trustee execute, and the City causes to be recorded with the County of Riverside Recorder, any document necessary to reconvey to the City the portion of the Property being released and to include any substituted or added real property in the description of the Property contained in the Lease Agreement and in the Ground Lease.

See the captions “THE PROJECT” and “THE PROPERTY,” as well as APPENDIX B— “SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—THE LEASE AGREEMENT—NO CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; USE OF THE PROPERTY; SUBSTITUTION OR RELEASE— Substitution or Release of, or Addition to, the Property.” Action on Default
Should the City default under the Lease Agreement, the Trustee, as assignee of the Authority under the Lease Agreement, may terminate the Lease Agreement and recover certain damages from the City, or may retain the Lease Agreement and hold the City liable for all Base Rental Payments thereunder on an annual basis, and will have the right to re-enter and re-let the Property. In the event such re-letting occurs, the City would be liable for any resulting deficiency in Base Rental Payments. See “RISK FACTORS—Limited Recourse on Default; No Acceleration of Base Rental.”
For purposes of certain actions of Bond Owners under the Indenture and the Lease Agreement, such as certain consents and amendments and the direction of remedies following default, Bond Owners do not act alone and may not control such matters to the extent such matters are not supported by the requisite number of the Owners of all Bonds.

In the event of a default under the Lease Agreement, there is no right under any circumstances to accelerate the Base Rental Payments or otherwise declare any Base Rental Payments not then in default to be immediately due and payable. There is no right under the Indenture to accelerate debt service payments on the Bonds in the event of a default under the Indenture or the Lease Agreement.

For a description of the events of default and permitted remedies of the Trustee (as assignee of the Authority) contained in the Lease Agreement and the Indenture, see APPENDIX B—“SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—THE LEASE AGREEMENT—DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES” and “—THE INDENTURE—DEFAULT AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY.”
No Reserve Fund
The Authority has not funded a debt service reserve fund for the Series 2025A Bonds. 2104

Additional Bonds
Pursuant to the Indenture, the Authority may issue Additional Bonds payable from the Base Rental Payments on a parity with the outstanding Bonds upon satisfaction of certain conditions, including, but not limited to, the following:
(a) The issuance of such Additional Bonds has been authorized under and pursuant to the Indenture and provided for by a Supplemental Indenture, which shall specify, among other things, the following:
(1) the application of the proceeds of the sale of such Additional Bonds; (2) the principal amount, designation, and denominations of such Series of Additional Bonds; (3) the date, the maturity date or dates, the interest payment dates and the dates on which mandatory sinking fund redemptions, if any, are to be made for such Additional Bonds; provided, however, that (i) the serial Bonds of such Series of Additional Bonds must be payable as to principal annually on May 1 of each year in which principal falls due, and the Term Bonds of such Series of Additional Bonds must have annual mandatory sinking fund redemptions on May 1, (ii) the Additional Bonds must be payable as to interest semiannually on May 1 and November 1 of each year, except that the first installment of interest may be payable on either May 1 or November 1 and shall be for a period of not longer than twelve months and the interest must be payable thereafter semiannually on May 1 and November 1, (iii) all Additional Bonds of a Series of like maturity must be identical in all respects, except as to number or denomination (and provided that such Bonds may accrue interest at different rates), and (iv) serial maturities of serial Bonds or mandatory sinking fund redemptions for term Bonds, or any combination thereof, will be established as appropriate to provide for the redemption or payment of such Additional Bonds on or before their respective maturity dates; (4) the redemption premiums and terms, if any, for such Additional Bonds; and (5) if necessary; that from such proceeds or other sources an amount shall be deposited in a reserve fund or account so that following such deposit there will be on deposit in a reserve fund or 2105
12 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
account an amount at least equal to the Reserve Fund Requirement for such Series of Additional Bonds, if any, after issuance of the Additional Bonds;
(b) The Authority and the City shall be in compliance with all agreements, conditions, covenants and terms contained in the Indenture, in the Lease Agreement and in the Ground Lease required to be observed or performed by it;
(c) The Ground Lease and the Lease Agreement shall have been amended, to the extent necessary, (i) so as to increase the Base Rental Payments payable by the City thereunder by an aggregate amount equal to the principal of and interest on such Additional Bonds, payable at such times and in such manner as may be necessary to provide for the payment of the principal of and interest on such Additional Bonds; provided, however, that no such amendment shall be made such that the sum of Base Rental Payments, including any increase in the Base Rental Payments as a result of such amendment, plus Additional Rental Payments, in any Rental Period shall be in excess of the annual fair rental value of the Property after taking into account the use of the proceeds of any Additional Bonds issued in connection therewith (evidence of the satisfaction of such condition shall be made by a Written Certificate of the City); and (ii) to include provisions for the prepayment of Base Rental Payments attributable to such Additional Bonds; and Notwithstanding satisfaction of the other conditions to the issuance of Additional Bonds set forth in the Indenture, no such issuance may occur if an event of default (within the meaning of the Lease Agreement) (or any event which, once all notice or grace periods have passed, would constitute such event of default) exists unless such event of default shall be cured upon such execution or issuance.

See APPENDIX B—“SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—THE INDENTURE—ISSUANCE OF BONDS; APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS—Conditions for the Issuance of Additional Bonds” and “—Procedure for the Issuance of Additional Bonds.” Insurance
General. The Lease Agreement requires that the City maintain certain insurance coverages on the Property for loss due to property damage, title defect, loss of use and other liability as described below. Under the Lease Agreement, the City may self-insure for the coverages required under the captions “Property Insurance,” “General Liability Insurance,” and “Workers’ Compensation Insurance.” The City self-insures up to certain amounts and purchases additional coverage from commercial carriers as described in Appendix A hereto under “INFORMATION REGARDING THE CITY OF EASTVALE — Risk Management.” Property Insurance. The Lease Agreement requires the City to maintain or cause to be maintained fire, lightning and special extended coverage insurance (which includes coverage for vandalism and malicious mischief, but need not include coverage for earthquake damage) on all improvements constituting any part of the Property, which with respect to any portion of the Property for which initial construction of improvements thereon has not been completed, initially may be in the form of a builder’s risk policy providing coverage in an amount not less than the construction costs expended for such projects and, if no builder’s risk policy is in effect in an amount not less than 100% of the replacement cost of such improvements. Such property insurance required to be maintained pursuant to the Lease Agreement may be subject to a deductible in an amount not to exceed $500,000.

General Liability Insurance. The Lease Agreement requires the City to maintain or cause to be maintained a standard commercial general liability insurance policy or policies in protection of the City, the Authority and their respective members, officers, agents and employees. Said policy or policies shall provide for indemnification of said parties against direct or contingent loss or liability for damages for bodily and personal injury, death or property damage occasioned by reason of the use or ownership of the Property. Said policy or policies shall provide coverage in the minimum liability limits of $1,000,000 for personal injury or death of each person and $3,000,000 for personal injury or deaths of two or more persons in a single accident 2106
13 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
or event, and in a minimum amount of $500,000 for damage to property (subject to a deductible clause of not to exceed $100,000) resulting from a single accident or event. Such commercial general liability and property damage insurance may, however, be in the form of a single limit policy in the amount of $3,000,000 covering all such risks.

Rental Interruption Insurance. The Lease Agreement requires the City to maintain rental interruption insurance to cover the Authority’s loss, total or partial, of Base Rental Payments resulting from the loss, total or partial, of the use of any part of the Property as a result of any of the hazards covered by the casualty insurance described above under “— Property Insurance,” in an amount sufficient at all times to pay an amount not less than the product of two times the maximum amount of Base Rental Payments scheduled to be paid during any Rental Period. The City’s obligations in the Lease Agreement may be satisfied by selfinsurance, provided such self-insurance complies with the provisions thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City will not be required to obtain rental interruption insurance with respect to Property until the City has received a certificate of occupancy for Project.

Workers’ Compensation Insurance. The City is also required to maintain or cause to be maintained workers’ compensation insurance issued by a responsible carrier authorized under the laws of the State to insure employers against liability for compensation under the California Labor Code, or any act enacted as an amendment or supplement thereto or in lieu thereof, such workers’ compensation insurance to cover all persons employed by the City in connection with the Property and to cover full liability for compensation under any such act.

Title Insurance. The City shall provide, at its own expense, one or more CLTA or ALTA title insurance policies for the Property, in the aggregate amount of not less than the initial aggregate principal amount of the Bonds. Said policy or policies shall insure (a) the fee interest of the City in the Property, (b) the Authority’s ground leasehold estate in the Property under the Ground Lease, and (c) the City’s leasehold estate under the Lease in the Property, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances. All Net Insurance Proceeds received under said policy or policies shall be deposited with the Trustee and applied as provided in the Indenture.

See APPENDIX B—“SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—THE LEASE AGREEMENT—INSURANCE.”

THE CIVIC CENTER PROJECT
Description of the Project. The Civic Center Project is located at the northwestern corner of Hamner Avenue and Limonite Avenue in the City, and consists of the design, construction and furnishing of three buildings (City Hall, Police Department, and Library), an approximately 4.3 acre open space area including a Civic Plaza, Park, and Amphitheater, and approximately 23 surface parking spaces.

The City Hall building is planned to be an approximately 52,340 square foot, three story building which will house the City Council chambers and various City departments including the City Manager’s office, City Clerk, finance, and development services. The City Hall building and approximately 12 surface parking spaces located adjacent to the building constitute the Property subject to the Lease Agreement.

The City Hall building will be located directly adjacent to the new Police Department building, which is also part of the Project but which will not be part of the leased Property. The Police Department building will be an approximately 22,021 square foot, two story building plus one level of subterranean parking which will serve as the Police Department headquarters in the City, and will be operated by the Riverside County Sheriff. Approximately six surface parking spaces will be located adjacent to the Police Department building and will be fenced off and restricted to use by the County Sheriff in connection with operation of the Police Department facility.
2110
17 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
The Library building will also be two stories and approximately 25,599 square feet, and will be operated by the County under agreement with the City. Approximately five surface parking spaces will be located adjacent to the Library building. The Library building is not a part of the leased Property.

The Civic Plaza will consist of approximately 46,771 square feet of open space located between the City Hall, Library, and Police Station buildings. The Park will consist of approximately 101,703 (drive lane exclude) square of open space located to the west of the City Hall and Library buildings and will include walking paths, seating and eating areas, open area grass, and trees. The Park also includes an 5,380 square foot outdoor amphitheater with seating for approximately 406 people, located directly adjacent to the northwest corner of the City Hall building.

Design and Construction of the Project. The City has retained M. Arthur Gensler, Jr. and Associates (“Gensler”) to provide architectural, planning and pre-design services for the Project and Griffin Structures as the owner representative/program manager for the Project.

The total cost of the Project (including furniture, fixtures and equipment) is expected to be approximately $187.3 million, which is expected to be financed with the proceeds of the Series 2025A Bonds and other funds of the City as described under the caption “THE FINANCING PLAN.” The design phase of the Project was completed in March 2025, and requests for bids were sent to prequalified contractors in April, 2025. Bids were opened in June 2025 and the general construction contract (the “Construction Contract”) was awarded to [Clark Construction] (the “Contractor”) on [June 25], 2025.

Construction of the Project is scheduled to begin in August, 2025. The construction contract currently identifies a 25-month construction schedule, with completion of the Project currently expected in September 2027. As of June 16, 2025, the City had expended approximately $9.8 million on design, engineering and related soft costs, all of which the City expects to seek reimbursement for from the proceeds of the Series 2025A Bonds.

The Property leased under the Ground Lease and the Lease Agreement includes the City Hall building, approximately 23 surface parking spaces and 66 subterranean parking spaces (sometimes referred to herein as the “Leased Portion of the Project”). See “THE PROPERTY,” below.

The City has funded a portion of the capitalized interest on the Series 2025A Bonds through [May 1, 2028], which is calculated to equal the Base Rental Payments through the estimated completion of the Project.

Should the Project not be timely completed and if the City does not have beneficial use and occupancy of the Leased Portion of the Project prior to the date through which capitalized interest has been funded, the City’s Base Rental Payments under the Lease Agreement may be subject to abatement.

The Construction Contract entered into by the City for the Project provides that the Contractor will be required to pay liquidated damages of $22,260 per day to the City in the event the Project is not substantially completed within 730 calendar days of the commencement of construction, or in the event final completion does not occur within 760 days of commencement of construction. The City currently expects construction to begin in August, 2025. However, certain force majeure and other provisions of the Construction Contract may prohibit or reduce the collection of liquated damages. In the event of abatement of all or a portion of the Rental Payments due to non-delivery of the Leased Portion of the Project, the City is required under the Lease Agreement to continue to make Rental Payments from such liquidated damages or any proceeds of any completion or performance bonds or other moneys paid to the City by the various contractors. The City can make no assurances regarding the availability, amounts or timing of funds that could be collected as liquidated damages or from the proceeds of any completion or performance bonds. See the captions “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2025A BONDS—Abatement” and “RISK FACTORS— Abatement.”

THE PROPERTY
The Property leased under the Ground Lease and the Lease Agreement consists of the City Hall building, approximately 23 surface parking spaces and 66 subterranean parking spaces (defined above as the “Leased Portion of the Project”). As described further under the caption “THE CIVIC CENTER PROJECT,” construction on the Civic Center Project is expected to begin in August, 2025 and is expected to be completed in September 2027. The real property on which the Civic Center Project will be constructed is currently vacant land located at the northwestern corner of Hamner Avenue and Limonite Avenue in the City.

The City Hall building will house the City Council chambers and various City departments including the City Manager’s office, City Clerk, finance, and development services. The City currently operates the majority of its City departments, including the City Council chambers, at space leased by the City in a retail shopping center located at 12363 Limonite Avenue in the City.

THE AUTHORITY
The Authority was established pursuant to Article 1 (commencing with Section 6500) of Chapter 5, Division 7, Title 1 of the California Government Code and a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement, dated as of January 8, 2025, by and between the City and the Eastvale Parking Authority (the “Parking Authority”). The governing board of the Authority is comprised of all of the individuals who currently are members of the City Council of the City. The Authority is qualified to assist in the financing of certain public improvements and to issue the Series 2025A Bonds pursuant to the provisions of Article 4 (commencing with Section 6584) of Chapter 5 of Division 7 of Title 1 of the California Government Code (the “Bond Law”). The Authority has no taxing power. The Authority and the City are each separate and distinct legal entities, and the debts and obligations of each such entity are not debts or obligations of the other entity.

THE CITY
The City of Eastvale (the “City”) was incorporated on October 1, 2010 and is one of the newest cities in the State. The City is located in northwestern Riverside County in the Inland Empire region of Southern California. The City is surrounded by the cities of Chino and Ontario within San Bernardino County to the north and west and the cities of Corona, Norco, and Jurupa Valley in Riverside County to the south and east.

The City has a total area of 13.1 square miles, of which 12.5 square miles is land and 0.6 square miles is water (the Santa Ana River).

The City provides a wide range of services including City Clerk, Communications, Planning, Economic Development, Public Works, Engineering, Building, Code Enforcement, Community Services and Recreation, and internal administrative services including Finance, Human Resources, and Risk Management.

Animal control, library, and public safety (fire and police) services are provided to the City and its residents through contracts with the County of Riverside (the “County”). Other services are provided directly through other agencies, including water and sewer service through the Jurupa Community Services District, parks and recreation through the Jurupa Community Services District and Jurupa Area Recreation and Parks District and public transit through the Riverside Transit Agency. The City has franchise agreements for electricity service through Southern California Edison, natural gas through SoCalGas, refuse collection through Waste Management and cable service through state franchise agreements with Charter Communications, DirecTV, and Frontier.

As of January 1, 2025, the City had a population of 69,799. The proximity of three heavily commercialized counties (two of the City’s borders are adjacent to San Bernardino County, and the city is within 8 miles of the Los Angeles County and Orange County borders), and the fact that the City is roughly squared between Interstate 15 and California State Routes 91, 60, and 71, has made the City popular with commuters to these three counties for employment.

For more detailed operational, financial and demographic information regarding the City, see APPENDIX A“THE CITY OF EASTVALE.” A copy of the financial statements of the City for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 is attached hereto as Appendix C which should be read in its entirety. See APPENDIX C—“ANNUAL COMPREHENSIVE FINANCIAL REPORT OF THE CITY FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2024.”

RISK FACTORS
The following factors, along with the other information in this Official Statement, should be considered by potential investors in evaluating the purchase of the Series 2025A Bonds. However, they do not purport to be an exhaustive listing of risks and other considerations which may be relevant to an investment in the Series 2025A Bonds. In addition, the order in which the following factors are presented is not intended to reflect the relative importance of any such risks.

General Considerations – Security for the Series 2025A Bonds The Series 2025A Bonds are special obligations of the Authority, payable solely from Base Rental Payments and the other assets pledged under the Indenture. Neither the faith and credit or the Authority, the City, or the State, or any political subdivision thereof, nor the taxing power of the City or the State, or any political subdivision thereof, is pledged to the payment of the Bonds. The Authority has no taxing power.

The obligation of the City to make the Base Rental Payments does not constitute a debt of the City or the State or of any political subdivision thereof within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limit or restriction, and does not constitute an obligation for which the City or the State is obligated to levy or pledge any form of taxation or for which the City or the State has levied or pledged any form of taxation.

Although the Lease Agreement does not create a pledge, lien or encumbrance upon the funds of the City, the City is obligated under the Lease Agreement to pay the Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments from any source of legally available funds and the City has covenanted in the Lease Agreement that it will take such action as may be necessary to include all Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments due under the Lease Agreement in its annual budgets and to make necessary annual appropriations for all such Rental Payments, subject to abatement. The City is currently liable and may become liable on other obligations payable from its general revenues. See APPENDIX A—“CITY OF EASTVALE—CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Indebtedness.”
The City has the capacity to enter into other obligations which may constitute additional charges against its revenues. To the extent that additional obligations are incurred by the City, the funds available to make Base Rental Payments may be decreased. In the event the City’s revenue sources are less than its total obligations, the City could choose to fund other activities before making Base Rental Payments and other payments due under the Lease Agreement. The same result could occur if, because of California Constitutional limits on expenditures, the City is not permitted to appropriate and spend all of its available revenues. The City has exceeded its annual limitation on appropriations under Article XIIIB of the State Constitution each year since 2021, because of the City’s high sales tax revenues. See APPENDIX A—“CITY OF EASTVALE—CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Constitutional Appropriations Limit.” Also see “CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS—Article XIIIB of the State Constitution.”
Abatement
In the event of substantial interference with the City’s right to use and occupy any portion of the Property by reason of non-delivery of the Project or by reason of damage to, or destruction or condemnation of the Property, or any defects in title to the Property, Rental Payments will be subject to abatement. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2025A BONDS—Abatement.” In the 2113
20 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
event of non-delivery of the Leased Portion of the Project or if the Leased Portion of the Project cannot be completed during the period of time in which proceeds of the City’s rental interruption insurance and any liquidated damages received by the City are available in lieu of Rental Payments, plus the period for which funds are available from the funds and account established under the Indenture, there could be insufficient funds to make payments to Owners in full. Furthermore, in the event that all or a portion of the Property, if damaged or destroyed by an insured casualty, could not be replaced during the period of time in which proceeds of the City’s rental interruption insurance will be available in lieu of Rental Payments, plus the period for which funds are available from the funds and accounts established under the Indenture, or in the event that casualty insurance proceeds are insufficient to provide for complete repair or replacement of such portion of the Property or redemption of the Series 2025A Bonds, there could be insufficient funds to make payments to Owners in full.

It is not always possible to predict the circumstances under which abatement of rental may occur. In addition, there is no statute, case or other law specifying how such an abatement of rental should be measured.

For example, it is not clear whether fair rental value is established as of commencement of the Lease Agreement or at the time of the abatement. If the latter, it may be that the value of the Property is substantially higher or lower than its value at the time of issuance of the Series 2025A Bonds. Abatement, therefore, could have an uncertain and material adverse effect on the security for and payment of the Series 2025A Bonds.

If damage, destruction, title defect or eminent domain proceedings with respect to the Property results in abatement of the Rental Payments related to such Property and if such abated Rental Payments, if any, together with moneys from rental interruption or use and occupancy insurance (in the event of any insured loss due to damage or destruction), and eminent domain proceeds, if any, are insufficient to make all payments of principal and interest with respect to the Series 2025A Bonds during the period that the Property is being replaced, repaired or reconstructed, then all or a portion of such payments of principal and interest may not be made. Under the Lease Agreement and the Indenture, no remedy is available to the Series 2025A Bond Owners for nonpayment under such circumstances.

As described above under “THE PROJECT” and “THE PROPERTY,” the Property leased under the Ground Lease and the Lease Agreement consists of the new City Hall component of the Civic Center Project.

The City has funded capitalized interest for the Series 2025A Bonds through [May 1, 2028], which is calculated to equal the Base Rental Payments coming due through the rental period during which the Project is expected to be completed. Should the Leased Portion of the Project not be timely completed and if the City does not have beneficial use and occupancy of the Leased Portion of the Project prior to the period through which capitalized interest has been funded, the City’s Rental Payments under the Lease Agreement may be subject to abatement. See the caption “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2025A BONDS—Abatement.”
Natural Disasters and Climate Change
General. The occurrence of any natural disaster in the City, including, without limitation, fire, windstorm, drought, earthquake, landslide, mudslide or flood, could have an adverse material impact on the economy within the City, its General Fund and the revenues available for the payment of Base Rental Payments. The occurrence of natural disasters in the City could result in substantial damage to the City and the Property which, in turn, could substantially reduce General Fund revenues and affect the ability of the City to make Base Rental Payments or cause an abatement in Base Rental Payments. Reduced ability to pay Base Rental Payments could affect the payment of the principal of and interest on the Series 2025A Bonds. The City maintains liability insurance and property casualty insurance (for losses other than from seismic events) for the Property. See APPENDIX A—“CITY OF EASTVALE—CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Risk Management” in Appendix A hereto. However, there can be no assurance that specific losses will be covered by insurance or, if covered, that claims will be paid in full by the applicable insurers. 2114

Seismic Activity. According to the Safety Element (the “Safety Element”) dated March 2024 of the City’s General Plan, there are three major, known faults located in the County: the San Andreas, San Jacinto, and Elsinore faults. The San Andreas and San Jacinto are two of California’s most active faults. Several properties within the City and its sphere of influence are directly impacted by the southernmost section of the San Andreas fault and/or secondary faults and fractures. These faults pose geologic and seismic hazards in the form of earthquakes, fault rupture, liquefaction, and landslides. The most recent earthquake along this stretch of the fault occurred more than 300 years ago leading scientists to suggest that it has accumulated a substantial amount of tectonic stress and is likely to produce a large (7 to 8 magnitude) earthquake in the near future. For more information, see the Safety Element of the City’s General Plan on file with the City Clerk.

Flooding. The City’s Local Hazards Mitigation Plan (the “LHMP”) dated July 2023, identified flooding as having limited damage/injuries severity and likely probability. Portions of the City are located within the 100- and 500-year floodplains including the Santa Ana riverbeds as well as some residential properties adjacent to this area, Crossroads Riverview Park, Prado Basin Park, Eastvale Community Park, Swan Lake, and a portion of I-15. No portion of the Property subject to the Ground Lease and the Lease Agreement are within a 100-year flood plain.

Wildfires. The State is periodically subject to wildfires. When wildfires scorch land, they destroy all vegetation on mountains and hillsides. As a result, when heavy rain falls in the winter, there is nothing to stop the rain from penetrating directly into the soil. In addition, waxy compounds in plants and soil that are released during fires create a natural barrier in the soil that prevents rain water from seeping deep into the ground. The result is erosion, mudslides, and excess water running off the hillsides often causing flash flooding. According to the Safety Element of the City’s General Plan, wildfires are a primary concern given the City’s generally dry climate, location within a semi-rural setting, the abundance of dry, low-lying dry brush and chaparral on the hillsides, the frequency of high wind velocity from Santa Ana winds and the steep terrain in portions of the City. Wildfires are of special concern in communities that are located in the Wildland-Urban Interface (the “WUI”) which is commonly described as the area where human development meets and intermingles with undeveloped wild land dry brush near homes and/or vegetative fuels. This results in creation of a wildfire hazard area that poses significant risks to life, property, and infrastructure. Additionally, fires outside the City can impact residents as smoke and air pollution from wildfires can be a severe health hazard, especially for more vulnerable health impaired populations.

Fire Hazard Severity Zone Maps. On March 24, 2025, CAL Fire released an updated Fire Hazard Severity Zone (“FHSZ”) map for the Southern California region which evaluates “Hazard,” being the likelihood and expected fire behavior over a 30 to 50-year period without considering mitigation measures such as home hardening, recent wildfire or fuel reduction efforts. On the other hand, “Risk” is the potential damage a fire can do to the area under existing conditions, accounting for any modifications such as fuel reduction projects, defensible space, and ignition resistant building construction. Pursuant to Sections 4201- 4204 of the California Public Resources Code, the State Fire Marshal is mandated to classify the state responsibility areas (the “SRAs”), where the state has financial responsibility for wildfire protection and prevention, into FHSZs. These zones are classified as either “Moderate,” “High” or “Very High” and are based on statewide criteria and severity of fire hazard that is expected to prevail in those areas. Each zone embraces relatively homogeneous lands and is based on fuel loading, slope, fire weather, and other relevant factors present, including areas where winds have been identified as a major cause of wildfire spread. In areas designated as the local responsibility areas (the “LRAs”), where local agencies have financial responsibility for wildfire protection and prevention, local agencies must adopt a FHSZ map and all three FHSZ classes. The LRAs map process will happen after the SRAs map process has been completed, which is estimated to occur in the summer of 2025. For more information, see the CAL Fire website. No portion of the Property is located within a High or Very High FHSZ. However, there is a risk of property within the City being destroyed by wildfires or urban fires, and no assurance can be given as to the severity or frequency of wildfires or urban fires within the vicinity of the City.

Property Tax Relief for Properties Affected by Natural Disasters. On January 16, 2025, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-10-25 (the “Governor’s Order) which canceled penalties, costs and interest on overdue property taxes (including special taxes) within certain Los Angeles County zip codes affected by the Palisades and Eaton Fires during calendar year 2025. This will likely cause a delay in the payment of property taxes by certain property owners in the areas affected by the Governor’s Order, unless such property owners within the affected areas pay their property taxes voluntarily or have mortgage impound accounts. In the event of a major fire or other natural disaster affecting the City, a similar order affecting the City could impact the City’s receipt of property tax revenues with respect to properties located in affected areas.

Climate Change. According to the Safety Element and LHMP, climate change caused by human activities may have adverse effects on the City. Climate change can also result in more variable weather patterns, which can lead to longer and more severe droughts as well as increased risk of flooding. Projections of the impacts of global climate change on the City are complex and depend on many factors that are outside the City’s control. The various scientific studies that forecast the amount and timing of adverse impacts of climate change are based on assumptions contained in such studies, but actual events may vary materially.

Also, the scientific understanding of climate change and its effects continues to evolve. Accordingly, the City is unable to forecast with certainty when adverse impacts of climate change will occur or the extent of such impacts. The City expects to continue to consider the effects of climate change in its own planning and to participate in regional planning initiatives. While the impacts of climate change may be mitigated by the City’s past and future investment in adaptation strategies, the City can give no assurance about the net effects of those strategies and whether the City will be required to take additional adaptive mitigation measures.

Particular potential impacts of climate change on the City include worsening air quality, increased flooding, and heatwaves.

Hazardous Substances
The City knows of no existing hazardous substances which require remedial action on or near the Property. However, it is possible such substances do currently or potentially exist and that the City is not aware of them.

According to the LHMP, the existing City Hall facility, Fire Station 27, and three schools are within a 1-miles proximity to the I-15 transportation corridor which could be at risk from a hazardous materials spill caused by a transportation incident. If a tanker spill did occur in this area, the existing City Hall facility and potentially three schools would be either evacuated or required to shelter in place affecting the capability to provide critical services. There would be limited damage to buildings but a high potential of contamination to staff. Additionally, depending on the type of hazardous material involved, a spill along this transportation corridor could have a significant impact on the retail base located in this area of the City.

According to the City’s Safety Element, most hazardous materials in the region are being transported on truck routes along major roadways that pass through the City, such as I-15 along the eastern border of the City. The most vulnerable areas along this route are the on-/off-ramps and interchanges. Since 1970, there have been no reported roadway hazardous materials incidents in the City.

Hazardous materials and waste within the City are managed by the Certified Unified Program Agency (“CUPA”), a local administrative agency within the Riverside County Division of Environmental Health. The CUPA consolidates, coordinates, and makes consistent the regulatory activities of several hazardous materials and hazardous waste programs, including Hazardous Materials Management, California Accidental Release Prevention, Hazardous Waste Management, Underground Storage Tanks, Aboveground Storage Tanks, and Emergency Response. Several state agencies monitor hazardous materials/waste facilities. Potential and known contamination sites are monitored and documented by the Regional Water Quality Control Board (“RWQCB”) and the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (“DTSC”). 2116
23 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
Owners and operators of real property may be required by law to remedy conditions of the property relating to releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances. The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, sometimes referred to as “CERCLA” or the “Superfund Act,” is the most well-known and widely applicable of these laws, but California laws with regard to hazardous substances are also stringent and similar. Under many of these laws, the owner (or operator) is obligated to remedy a hazardous substance whether or not the owner (or operator) has anything to do with creating or handling the hazardous substance. Further, such liabilities may arise not simply from the existence of a hazardous substance but from the method of handling it. All of these possibilities could significantly and adversely affect the operations and finances of the City, may result in the reduction in the assessed value of property, and therefor property tax revenue.

Cybersecurity
The City, like many other public and private entities, relies on a large and complex technology environment to conduct its operations. As a recipient and provider of personal, private, or sensitive information, the City is subject to multiple cyber threats including, but not limited to, hacking, viruses, malware and other attacks on computer and other sensitive digital networks and systems. Entities or individuals may attempt to gain unauthorized access to the City’s digital systems for the purposes of misappropriating assets or information or causing operational disruption and damage. The City has adopted various policies regarding cybersecurity, including policies with respect to appropriate use and of email and technology, as well as the handling of sensitive personally identifiable information. The City has also heavily invested in software’s and programs such as Cylance, ESET, and Knowbe4 Cyber Security to prevent ransomware attacks. To date, the City has not experienced an attack on its computer operating systems which resulted in a breach of its cybersecurity systems. However, no assurances can be given that the City’s efforts to manage cyber threats and attacks will be successful or that any such attack will not materially impact the operations or finances of the City. See APPENDIX A—“CITY OF EASTVALE—CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Risk Management” in Appendix A hereto for more information with respect to the City’s cybersecurity insurance coverage.

Substitution, Addition and Removal of Property; Additional Bonds The Authority and the City may amend the Lease Agreement to substitute alternate real property for any portion of or add additional real property to the Property or to release a portion of the Property from the Lease Agreement, upon compliance with all of the conditions set forth in the Lease Agreement. After a substitution or release, the portion of the Property for which the substitution or release has been effected will be released from the leasehold encumbrance of the Lease Agreement. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2025A BONDS―Substitution, Addition and Removal of Property.” Moreover, the Authority may issue Additional Bonds secured by Base Rental Payments which are increased from current levels.

Although the Lease Agreement requires, among other things, that the Property, as constituted after such substitution or release, have an annual fair rental value at least equal to the maximum Base Rental Payments payable by the City in any Rental Period, it does not require that such Property have an annual fair rental value equal to the annual fair rental value of the Property prior to such substitution or release. Thus, a portion of the Property could be replaced with less valuable real property, or could be released altogether.

Such a replacement or release could have an adverse impact on the security for the Series 2025A Bonds, particularly if an event requiring abatement of Base Rental Payments were to occur subsequent to such substitution or release. See APPENDIX B—“SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS— THE LEASE AGREEMENT—NO CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES; USE OF THE PROPERTY; SUBSTITUTION OR RELEASE—Substitution or Release of, or Addition to, the Property.” The Indenture requires, among other things, that upon the issuance of Additional Bonds, the Ground Lease and the Lease Agreement will be amended, to the extent necessary, so as to increase the Base Rental 2117
24 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
Payments payable by the City thereunder by an aggregate amount equal to the principal of and interest on such Additional Bonds; provided, however, that no such amendment will be made such that the sum of Base Rental Payments, including any increase in the Base Rental Payments as a result of such amendment, plus Additional Rental Payments, in any Rental Period is in excess of the annual fair rental value of the Property after taking into account the use of the proceeds of any Additional Bonds issued in connection therewith.

Limited Recourse on Default; No Acceleration of Base Rental Failure by the City to make Base Rental Payments or other payments required to be made under the Lease Agreement, or failure to observe and perform any other terms, covenants or conditions contained in the Lease Agreement or in the Indenture for a period of 30 days or such additional time as is reasonable required, with the written approval of the Insurer (so long as the Insurer is not in default on any obligations under the Insurance Policy), to correct any such default after notice by the Authority to the City, constitute events of default under the Lease Agreement and permit the Trustee or the Authority to pursue any and all remedies available. In the event of a default, notwithstanding anything in the Lease Agreement or in the Indenture to the contrary, there is no right under any circumstances to accelerate the Base Rental Payments or otherwise declare any Base Rental Payments not then in default to be immediately due and payable, nor do the Authority or the Trustee have any right to re-enter or re-let the Property except as described in the Lease Agreement.

The enforcement of any remedies provided in the Lease Agreement and the Indenture could prove both expensive and time consuming. If the City defaults on its obligation to make Base Rental Payments with respect to the Property, the Trustee, as assignee of the Authority, may retain the Lease Agreement and hold the City liable for all Base Rental Payments thereunder on an annual basis and enforce any other terms or provisions of the Lease Agreement to be kept or performed by the City.

Alternatively, the Trustee may terminate the Lease Agreement, retake possession of the Property and proceed against the City to recover damages pursuant to the Lease Agreement. Due to the specialized nature of the Property or any property substituted therefor pursuant to the Lease Agreement and the restrictions on its use, no assurance can be given that the Trustee will be able to re-let the Property so as to provide rental income sufficient to make all payments of principal of, interest and premium, if any, on the Series 2025A Bonds when due, and the Trustee is not empowered to sell the Property for the benefit of the Owners of the Series 2025A Bonds. Any suit for money damages would be subject to limitations on legal remedies against cities in California, including a limitation on enforcement of judgments against funds needed to serve the public welfare and interest. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2025A BONDS” and APPENDIX B—“SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—THE LEASE AGREEMENT—DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES.”
Limitations on Remedies Available; Bankruptcy
The enforceability of the rights and remedies of the Owners and the obligations of the City may become subject to the following: the federal bankruptcy code and applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, now or hereafter in effect; usual equitable principles which may limit the specific enforcement under state law of certain remedies; the exercise by the United States of America of the powers delegated to it by the Federal Constitution; and the reasonable and necessary exercise, in certain exceptional situations, of the police power inherent in the sovereignty of the State and its governmental bodies in the interest of servicing a significant and legitimate public purpose.

Under Chapter 9 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (Title 11, United States Code) (the “Bankruptcy Code”), which governs bankruptcy proceedings of public entities such as the City, no involuntary bankruptcy petition may be filed against a public entity. However, upon satisfaction of certain prerequisite conditions, a voluntary bankruptcy petition may be filed by the City. The filing of a bankruptcy petition results in a stay against enforcement of remedies under agreements to which the bankrupt entity is a party. A 2118
25 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
bankruptcy filing by the City could thus limit remedies under the Lease Agreement. A bankruptcy debtor may choose to assume or reject executory contracts and leases, such as the Lease Agreement. In the event of rejection of a lease by debtor lessee, the leased property is returned to the lessor and the lessor has a claim for a limited amount of the resulting damages.

Under the Indenture, the Trustee holds a security interest in the Base Rental Payments for the benefit of the Owners of the Bonds, but such security interest arises only when the Base Rental Payments are actually received by the Trustee following payment by the City. The Property is not subject to a security interest, mortgage or any other lien in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of Owners. In the event of a bankruptcy filed by the City and the subsequent rejection of the Lease Agreement by the City, the Authority would recover possession of the Property and the Trustee, as assignee of the Authority, would have a claim for damages against the City. The Trustee’s claim would constitute a secured claim only to the extent of Revenues in the possession of the Trustee; the balance of such claim would be unsecured.

Bankruptcy proceedings would subject the Owners of the Series 2025A Bonds to judicial discretion and interpretation of their rights in bankruptcy or otherwise, and consequently entail risks of delay, limitation, or modification of their rights with respect to the Series 2025A Bonds. In a bankruptcy case, the amount recovered by Owners of the Series 2025A Bonds could be affected by whether the Lease Agreement is determined to be a “true lease” or a loan or other financing arrangement (a “financing lease”), and the Owners’ recovery could be reduced in either case. If the Lease Agreement is determined by the bankruptcy court to constitute a “true lease” (rather than a financing lease), the City could choose not to perform under the Lease Agreement by rejecting it and the claim of the Owners could be substantially limited pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code to a fraction of the scheduled amount of Base Rental Payments, and that reduced claim amount could be impaired as an unsecured claim under a plan of adjustment. If a bankruptcy court were to treat the Lease Agreement as a financing lease then, under a plan of adjustment, the priority, payment terms, collateral, payment dates, payment sources, covenants and other terms or provisions of the Lease Agreement and the Series 2025A Bonds may be altered. Such a plan could be confirmed even over the objections of the Trustee and the Owners, and without their consent. For example, the amount of the Base Rental Payments from the City might be substantially reduced because of the power of the bankruptcy court under the Bankruptcy Code to adjust secured claims to the value of their collateral, which, as described above, could be limited to the Base Rental Payments held by the Trustee. In addition there can be a substantial disparity in treatment based on the nature of the Property. Whether the Lease Agreement is characterized by the bankruptcy court as a true lease or a financing lease, either scenario could result in the Owners not receiving the full amount of the principal and interest due on the Series 2025A Bonds.

The opinions of counsel, including Bond Counsel, delivered in connection with the issuance of the Series 2025A Bonds will be so qualified. Bankruptcy proceedings, or the exercising of powers by the federal or state government, if initiated, could subject the Owners to judicial discretion and interpretation of their rights in bankruptcy or otherwise and consequently may entail risks of delay, limitation, or modification of their rights.

Possible Insufficiency of Insurance Proceeds
The Lease Agreement obligates the City to keep in force various forms of insurance, subject to deductibles, for repair or replacement of the Property in the event of damage, destruction or title defects, subject to certain exceptions. The Authority and the City make no representation as to the ability of any insurer to fulfill its obligations under any insurance policy obtained pursuant to the Lease Agreement, and no assurance can be given as to the adequacy of any such insurance to fund necessary repair or replacement or to pay principal of and interest on the Series 2025A Bonds when due. In addition, certain risks, such as earthquakes and floods, are not required to be insured under the Lease Agreement, and therefore, are not carried by the City. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2025A BONDS—Insurance.”
2119
26 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
Loss of Tax Exemption
As discussed under the heading “TAX MATTERS,” the interest (and original issue discount) on the Series 2025A Bonds could become includable in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation retroactive to the date of delivery of the Series 2025A Bonds, as a result of acts or omissions of the Authority or the City in violation of their covenants in the Indenture and the Lease Agreement. Should such an event of taxability occur, the Series 2025A Bonds would not be subject to a special redemption and would remain Outstanding until maturity or until redeemed under the redemption provisions contained in the Indenture.

No Liability of Authority to the Owners
Except as expressly provided in the Indenture, the Authority will not have any obligation or liability to the Owners of the Series 2025A Bonds with respect to the payment when due of the Base Rental Payments by the City, or with respect to the performance by the City of other agreements and covenants required to be performed by it contained in the Lease Agreement or the Indenture, or with respect to the performance by the Trustee of any right or obligation required to be performed by it contained in the Indenture.

Risks Associated with Bond Insurance
[In the event that the Authority defaults in the payment of principal of or interest on the Insured Series 2025A Bonds as a result of the failure of the City to pay the Base Rental Payments when due, the Owners of the Insured Series 2025A Bonds will have a claim under the Policy for such payments. See the caption “BOND INSURANCE.” In the event that the Insurer becomes obligated to make payments with respect to the Insured Series 2025A Bonds, no assurance can be given that such event will not adversely affect the market for the Insured Series 2025A Bonds. In the event that the Insurer is unable to make payment of principal of and interest on the Insured Series 2025A Bonds when due under the Policy, the Insured Series 2025A Bonds will be payable solely from Base Rental Payments and amounts held in certain funds and accounts established under the Indenture, as described under the caption “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2025A BONDS.”
The Insurer is expected to insure a majority of the Series 2025A Bonds and will therefore have the ability to direct the actions of the Trustee give consents and waivers and take other actions without regard to the views of the owners of the Series 2025A Bonds. As a result, Owners of the Series 2025A Bonds may be limited in the rights and remedies they are able to exercise in the event of a default by the Authority under the Indenture. The Insurer may have different business and other interests than the Owners of the Series 2025A Bonds.

The long-term rating on the Insured Series 2025A Bonds is dependent in part on the financial strength of the Insurer and its claims-paying ability. The Insurer’s financial strength and claims-paying ability are predicated upon a number of factors which could change over time. If the long-term ratings of the Insurer are lowered, such event could adversely affect the market for the Insured Series 2025A Bonds. See the caption “RATINGS.”
None of the City, the Authority or the Underwriter have made an independent investigation of the claims-paying ability of the Insurer and no assurance or representation regarding the financial strength or projected financial strength of the Insurer is being made by the City, the Authority or the Underwriter in this Official Statement. Therefore, when making an investment decision with respect to the Insured Series 2025A Bonds, potential investors should carefully consider the ability of the City to pay Base Rental Payments, which secure the Insured Series 2025A Bonds, assuming that the Policy is not available for that purpose, and the claims-paying ability of the Insurer through final maturity of the Insured Series 2025A Bonds.

So long as the Policy remains in effect and the Insurer is not in default of its obligations thereunder, the Insurer has certain notice, consent and other rights under the Indenture and will have the right to control all 2120
27 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
remedies for default under the Indenture. The Insurer is not required to obtain the consent of the Owners with respect to the exercise of remedies.]
Dependence on State for Certain Revenues
On May 14, 2025, the Governor released the May Revision to his proposed 2025-26 California state budget (the “2025-26 May Revision”). The following is drawn from the Department of Finance (“DOF”) and Legislative Analyst’s Office (“LAO”) summaries of the 2025-26 May Revision.

The 2025-26 May Revision reports that the State is facing a budgetary shortfall in 2025 of approximately $12 billion. The shortfall is driven by a substantial slowdown in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth combined with lower job growth and higher unemployment as well as reduced personal income and capital gains taxes driven by reduced stock prices, driven primarily by high tariffs. In addition, expenditures in the Medi-Cal program—the state’s health care program for low-income individuals—have increased significantly and continue to outpace revenues. Unlike the last two years, during which the State also faced budget deficits, this year’s approach includes a significant number of reductions to ongoing programs that result in greater savings in future years.

To provide for a balanced budget over two fiscal years, the 2024 Budget Act reflected withdrawals from the Budget Stabilization Account (“BSA”) of $5.1 billion in 2024-25 and $7.1 billion in 2025-26.

Despite the downgraded revenue forecast, the 2025-26 May Revision maintains the planned withdrawal of approximately $7.1 billion from the BSA. Accounting for withdrawals, the 2025-26 May Revision reflects total reserve balances of approximately $15.7 billion at the end of 2025-26. This consists of $11.2 billion in the BSA and $4.5 billion in the Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties.

The City cannot predict the extent of the budgetary problems the State may encounter in future fiscal years, and it is not clear what measures would be taken by the State to balance its budget, as required by law.

In addition, the City cannot predict the impact that State budgets will have on the City’s finances and operations or what actions will be taken in the future by the State Legislature and the Governor to deal with changing State revenues and expenditures. Current and future State budgets will be affected by international, national and State economic conditions and other factors over which the City has no control.

A number of the City’s revenues are collected and dispersed by the State (such as sales taxes and the VLF) or allocated in accordance with State law (most importantly, property taxes). Therefore, State budget decisions can have an impact on City finances. In the event of a material economic downturn in the State, there can be no assurance that any resulting revenue shortfalls to the State will not reduce revenues to local governments (including the City) or shift financial responsibility for programs to local governments as part of the State’s efforts to address any such related State financial difficulties.

See “CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS—Proposition 1A” and “—Proposition 22” below. 2121
28 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002

CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS Principal of and interest on the Series 2024 Bonds are payable from Base Rental Payments made from the City’s General Fund. See the caption “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2024 BONDS.” Articles XIIIA, XIIIB, XIIIC and XIIID of the State Constitution, Propositions 62, 111, 218, 1A and 22, and certain other provisions of law discussed below are included in this Official Statement to describe the potential effect of these Constitutional and statutory measures on the ability of the City to levy taxes and spend tax proceeds for operating and other purposes.

Article XIIIA of the State Constitution
On June 6, 1978, State voters approved Proposition 13, which added Article XIIIA to the State Constitution. Article XIIIA, as amended, limits the amount of any ad valorem tax on real property to 1% of the full cash value thereof, except that additional ad valorem taxes may be levied to pay debt service: (i) on indebtedness approved by the voters prior to December 1, 1978; (ii) on bonded indebtedness approved by a two-thirds vote on or after December 1, 1978, for the acquisition or improvement of real property; or (iii) bonded indebtedness incurred by a school district, community college district or county office of education for the construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation or replacement of school facilities, including the furnishing and equipping of school facilities or the acquisition or lease of real property for school facilities, approved by 55% of the voters voting on the proposition. Article XIIIA defines full cash value to mean “the county assessor’s valuation of real property as shown on the 1975-76 tax bill under “full cash value,” or thereafter, the appraised value of real property when purchased, newly constructed, or a change in ownership has occurred after the 1975 assessment.” This full cash value may be increased at a rate not to exceed 2% per year to account for inflation.

Article XIIIA has subsequently been amended to permit reduction of the “full cash value” base in the event of declining property values caused by damage, destruction or other factors, including a general economic downturn, to provide that there would be no increase in the “full cash value” base in the event of reconstruction of property damaged or destroyed in a disaster, and in other minor or technical ways.

Legislation Implementing Article XIIIA
Legislation has been enacted and amended a number of times since 1978 to implement Article XIIIA.

Under current law, local agencies are no longer permitted to levy directly any property tax (except to pay voter-approved indebtedness). The 1% property tax is automatically levied by counties and distributed according to a formula among taxing agencies.

Increases in assessed valuation resulting from reappraisals of property due to new construction, change in ownership or from the 2% annual adjustment are allocated among the various jurisdictions in the “taxing area” based upon their respective “situs.” Any such allocation made to a local agency continues as part of its allocation in future years.

All taxable property is shown at full cash value on the tax rolls. Consequently, the tax rate is expressed as $1 per $100 of taxable value. All taxable property value included in this Official Statement is shown at 100 percent of taxable value (unless noted differently) and all tax rates reflect the $1 per $100 of taxable value.

Article XIIIB of the State Constitution
In addition to the limits that Article XIIIA imposes on property taxes that may be collected by local governments, certain other revenues of the State and most local governments are subject to an annual “appropriations limit” imposed by Article XIIIB which effectively limits the amount of such revenues that such entities are permitted to spend. Article XIIIB, approved by the voters in June 1979, was modified 2122
29 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
substantially by Proposition 111 in 1990. The appropriations limit of each government entity applies to “proceeds of taxes,” which consist of tax revenues and the investment proceeds thereof, State subventions and certain other funds, including proceeds from regulatory licenses, user charges or other fees to the extent that such proceeds exceed “the cost reasonably borne by such entity in providing the regulation, product or service.” “Proceeds of taxes” excludes tax refunds and some benefit payments such as unemployment insurance. No limit is imposed on the appropriation of funds which are not “proceeds of taxes,” such as reasonable user charges or fees, and certain other non-tax funds. Article XIIIB also does not limit appropriation of local revenues to pay debt service on bonds existing or authorized as of October 1, 1979, or subsequently authorized by the voters (such as the Bonds), appropriations required to comply with mandates of courts or the federal government, appropriations for qualified capital outlay projects, and appropriation by the State of revenues derived from any increase in gasoline taxes and motor vehicle weight fees above January 1, 1990 levels. The appropriations limit may also be exceeded in case of emergency; however, the appropriations limit for the next three years following such emergency appropriation must be reduced to the extent by which it was exceeded, unless the emergency arises from civil disturbance or natural disaster declared by the Governor, and the expenditure is approved by two-thirds of the legislative body of the local government.

The State and each local government entity has its own appropriations limit. Each year, the limit is adjusted to allow for changes, if any, in the cost of living, the population of the jurisdiction, and any transfer to or from another government entity of financial responsibility for providing services. Proposition 111 requires that each local government’s actual appropriations be tested against its limit every two years.

If the aggregate “proceeds of taxes” for the preceding two-year period exceeds the aggregate limit, the excess must be returned to the agency’s taxpayers through tax rate or fee reductions over the following two years.

The City has exceeded its annual limitation on appropriations under Article XIIIB of the State Constitution each year since 2021, because of the City’s high sales tax revenues. See APPENDIX A—“CITY OF EASTVALE—CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Constitutional Appropriations Limit.” Articles XIIIC and XIIID of the State Constitution
On November 5, 1996, State voters approved Proposition 218, known as the “Right to Vote on Taxes Act.” Proposition 218 adds Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the State Constitution and contains a number of interrelated provisions affecting the ability of the City to levy and collect both existing and future taxes, assessments and property-related fees and charges. The interpretation and application of Proposition 218 will ultimately be determined by the courts with respect to a number of the matters discussed below, and it is not possible at this time to predict with certainty the outcome of such determination.

Article XIIIC requires that all new local taxes be submitted to the electorate before they become effective. Taxes for general governmental purposes of the City require a majority vote and taxes for specific purposes, even if deposited in the City’s General Fund, require a two-thirds vote. The voter approval requirements of Proposition 218 reduce the flexibility of the City to raise revenues for the General Fund, and no assurance can be given that the City will be able to impose, extend or increase such taxes in the future to meet increased expenditure needs.

Article XIIID also adds several provisions making it generally more difficult for local agencies to levy and maintain property-related fees, charges, and assessments for municipal services and programs, such as hearings and stricter and more individualized benefit requirements and findings. These provisions include, among other things: (i) a prohibition against assessments which exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on a parcel; (ii) a requirement that assessments must confer a “special benefit,” as defined in Article XIIID, over and above any general benefits conferred; (iii) a majority protest procedure for assessments which involves the mailing of notice and a ballot to the record owner of each affected parcel, a public hearing and the tabulation of ballots weighted according to the proportional financial obligation of the 2123
30 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
affected party; and (iv) a prohibition against fees and charges which are used for general governmental services, including police, fire or library services, where the service is available to the public at large in substantially the same manner as it is to property owners. If the City is unable to continue to collect these revenues, the services and programs funded with these revenues would have to be curtailed and/or the City’s General Fund might have to be used to support them. The City is unable to predict whether or not in the future it will be able to continue all existing services and programs funded by the fees, charges and assessments in light of Proposition 218 or, if these services and programs are continued, which amounts (if any) would be used from the City’s General Fund to continue to support such activities.

Article XIIIC also removes limitations on the initiative power in matters of reducing or repealing local taxes, assessments, fees or charges. This extension of the initiative power is not limited to taxes imposed on or after November 6, 1996, the effective date of Proposition 218, and could result in retroactive repeal or reduction in any existing taxes, assessments, fees and charges, subject to overriding federal constitutional principles relating to the impairments of contracts. Legislation implementing Proposition 218 provides that the initiative power provided for in Proposition 218 “shall not be construed to mean that any owner or beneficial owner of a municipal security, purchased before or after (the effective date of Proposition 218) assumes the risk of, or in any way consents to, any action by initiative measure that constitutes an impairment of contractual rights” protected by the United States Constitution. However, no assurance can be given that the voters of the City will not, in the future, approve an initiative or initiatives which reduce or repeal local taxes, assessments, fees or charges currently comprising a substantial part of the City’s General Fund.

Although a portion of the City’s General Fund revenues are derived from taxes purported to be governed by Proposition 218, all of such taxes were imposed in accordance with the requirements of Proposition 218. No assurance can be given that the voters of the City will not, in the future, approve an initiative or initiatives which reduce or repeal local taxes, assessments, fees or charges which support the City’s General Fund.

Proposition 62
Proposition 62 was adopted by the voters at the November 4, 1986, general election and: (a) requires that any new or higher taxes for general governmental purposes imposed by local governmental entities such as the City be approved by a two-thirds vote of the governmental entity’s legislative body and by a majority vote of the voters of the governmental entity voting in an election on the tax; (b) requires that any special tax (defined as taxes levied for other than general governmental purposes) imposed by a local governmental entity be approved by a two-thirds vote of the voters of the governmental entity voting in an election on the tax; (c) restricts the use of revenues from a special tax to the purposes or for the service for which the special tax was imposed; (d) prohibits the imposition of ad valorem taxes on real property by local governmental entities except as permitted by Article XIIIA; (e) prohibits the imposition of transaction taxes and sales taxes on the sale of real property by local governmental entities; and (f) requires that any tax imposed by a local governmental entity on or after July 1, 1985, be ratified by a majority vote of the voters voting in an election on the tax within two years of the adoption of the initiative or be terminated by November 15, 1988.

California appellate court cases have overturned the provisions of Proposition 62 pertaining to the imposition of taxes for general government purposes. However, the California Supreme Court upheld Proposition 62 in its decision on August 28, 1995 in Fresno County Transportation Authority v. Guardino.

This decision reaffirmed the constitutionality of Proposition 62. Certain matters regarding Proposition 62 were not addressed in the Court’s decision, such as what remedies exist for taxpayers subject to a tax not in compliance with Proposition 62, and whether the decision applies to charter cities. The City has not experienced any substantive adverse financial impact as a result of the passage of Proposition 62. 2124
31 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
Proposition 1A
Proposition 1A, proposed by the State Legislature in connection with the State’s fiscal year 2004-05 budget, approved by the voters in November 2004 and generally effective in State fiscal year 2006-07, provides that the State may not reduce any local sales tax rate, limit existing local government authority to levy a sales tax rate or change the allocation of local sales tax revenues, subject to certain exceptions.

Proposition 1A generally prohibits the State from shifting to schools or community colleges any share of property tax revenues allocated to local governments for any fiscal year, as set forth under the laws in effect as of November 3, 2004. Any change in the allocation of property tax revenues among local governments within a county must be approved by two-thirds of both houses of the Legislature. Proposition 1A provides, however, that beginning in State fiscal year 2008-09, the State may shift to schools and community colleges up to 8% of local government property tax revenues, which amount must be repaid, with interest, within three years, if the Governor proclaims that the shift is needed due to a severe state financial hardship, the shift is approved by two-thirds of both houses and certain other conditions are met. The State also will not be able to borrow from local property tax revenues for more than two fiscal years within a period of ten fiscal years. In addition, the State cannot reduce the local sales tax rate or restrict the authority of local governments to impose or change the distribution of the State-wide local sales tax. The State may also approve voluntary exchanges of local sales tax and property tax revenues among local governments within a county. Proposition 1A also provides that if the State reduces the motor vehicle license fee rate currently in effect, 0.65% of vehicle value, the State must provide local governments with equal replacement revenues. Further, Proposition 1A requires the State, beginning July 1, 2005, to suspend State mandates affecting cities, counties and special districts, excepting mandates relating to employee rights, schools or community colleges, in any year that the State does not fully reimburse local governments for their costs to comply with such mandates.

Proposition 1A may result in increased and more stable City revenues. The magnitude of such increase and stability is unknown and would depend on future actions by the State. However, Proposition 1A could also result in decreased resources being available for State programs. This reduction, in turn, could affect actions taken by the State to resolve budget difficulties. Such actions could include increasing State taxes, decreasing spending on other State programs or other action, some of which could be adverse to the City.

Many of the provisions of Proposition 1A have been superseded by Proposition 22 enacted in November 2010 and described below.

Proposition 22
On November 2, 2010, the voters of the State approved Proposition 22, known as “The Local Taxpayer, Public Safety, and Transportation Protection Act” (“Proposition 22”). Proposition 22, among other things, broadens the restrictions established by Proposition 1A. While Proposition 1A permits the State to appropriate or borrow local property tax revenues on a temporary basis during times of severe financial hardship, Proposition 22 amends Article XIII of the State Constitution to prohibit the State from appropriating or borrowing local property tax revenues under any circumstances. The State can no longer borrow local property tax revenues on a temporary basis even during times of severe financial hardship. Proposition 22 also prohibits the State from appropriating or borrowing proceeds derived from any tax levied by a local government solely for the local government’s purposes. Furthermore, Proposition 22 restricts the State’s ability to redirect redevelopment agency property tax revenues to school districts and other local governments and limits uses of certain other funds although this provision no longer has any meaningful impact given the statewide dissolution of redevelopment agencies. Proposition 22 is intended to stabilize local government revenue sources by restricting the State government’s control over local revenues. The City cannot predict whether Proposition 22 will have a beneficial effect on the City’s financial condition. 2125
32 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
Proposition 26
On November 2, 2010, State voters also approved Proposition 26. Proposition 26 amends Article XIIIC of the State Constitution to expand the definition of “tax” to include “any levy, charge, or exaction of any kind imposed by a local government” except the following: (a) a charge imposed for a specific benefit conferred or privilege granted directly to the payor that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of conferring the benefit or granting the privilege; (b) a charge imposed for a specific government service or product provided directly to the payor that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of providing the service or product; (c) a charge imposed for the reasonable regulatory costs to a local government for issuing licenses and permits, performing investigations, inspections, and audits, enforcing agricultural marketing orders, and the administrative enforcement and adjudication thereof; (d) a charge imposed for entrance to or use of local government property, or the purchase, rental or lease of local government property; (e) a fine, penalty or other monetary charge imposed by the judicial branch of government or a local government as a result of a violation of law; (f) a charge imposed as a condition of property development; and (g) assessments and property-related fees imposed in accordance with the provisions of Article XIIID. Proposition 26 provides that the local government bears the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that a levy, charge, or other exaction is not a tax, that the amount is no more than necessary to cover the reasonable costs of the governmental activity, and that the manner in which those costs are allocated to a payor bear a fair or reasonable relationship to the payor’s burdens on, or benefits received from, the governmental activity. The City does not believe that Proposition 26 will adversely affect its General Fund revenues.

See APPENDIX A—“CITY OF EASTVALE—CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Other Franchise Fees” for information regarding the potential impact of the California Supreme Court’s decision in Robert Zolly et al. v. City of Oakland, relating to franchises awarded by the City of Oakland for recycling and municipal waste services challenged under Proposition 26.

Possible Future Initiatives
Articles XIIIA, XIIIB, XIIIC and XIIID and Propositions 218, 111, 62, 1A, 22 and 26 were each adopted as measures that qualified for the ballot pursuant to the State’s initiative process. From time to time other initiative measures could be adopted, further affecting revenues of the City or the City’s ability to expend revenues. The nature and impact of these measures cannot be anticipated by the City.

TAX MATTERS
In the opinion of Bond Counsel, under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions, and assuming the accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain covenants and requirements described herein, interest (and original issue discount) on the Series 2025A Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of calculating the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals. However, it should be noted that with respect to applicable corporations as defined in Section 59(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), generally certain corporations with more than $1,000,000,000 of average annual adjusted financial statement income, interest (and original issue discount) with respect to the Series 2025A Bonds might be taken into account in determining adjusted financial statement income for purposes of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed by Section 55 of the Code on such corporations. In the further opinion of Bond Counsel, interest (and original issue discount) on the Series 2025A Bonds is exempt from State personal income tax.

Bond Counsel’s opinion as to the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest (and original issue discount) on the Series 2025A Bonds is based upon certain representations of fact and certifications made by the Authority and others and is subject to the condition that the Authority comply 2126
33 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
with all requirements of the Code that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the Series 2025A Bonds to assure that interest (and original issue discount) on the Series 2025A Bonds will not become includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes. Failure to comply with such requirements of the Code might cause interest (and original issue discount) on the Series 2025A Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance of the Series 2025A Bonds. The Authority has covenanted to comply with all such requirements.

In the opinion of Bond Counsel, the difference between the issue price of a Series 2025A Bond (the first price at which a substantial amount of the Series 2025A Bonds of a maturity is to be sold to the public) and the stated redemption price at maturity of such Series 2025A Bond constitutes original issue discount. Original issue discount accrues under a constant yield method, and original issue discount will accrue to a Beneficial Owner before receipt of cash attributable to such excludable income. The amount of original issue discount deemed received by a Beneficial Owner will increase the Beneficial Owner’s basis in the applicable Series 2025A Bond. The amount of original issue discount that accrues to the Beneficial Owner of a Series 2025A Bond is excluded from the gross income of such Beneficial Owner for federal income tax purposes, is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals, and is exempt from State personal income tax.

The amount by which a Series 2025A Bond Owner’s original basis for determining loss on sale or exchange in the applicable Series 2025A Bond (generally, the purchase price) exceeds the amount payable on maturity (or on an earlier call date) constitutes amortizable bond premium, which must be amortized under Section 171 of the Code; such amortizable bond premium reduces the Series 2025A Bond Owner’s basis in the applicable Series 2025A Bond (and the amount of tax-exempt interest received with respect to the Series 2025A Bonds), and is not deductible for federal income tax purposes. The basis reduction as a result of the amortization of bond premium may result in a Series 2025A Bond Owner realizing a taxable gain when a Series 2025A Bond is sold by the Owner for an amount equal to or less (under certain circumstances) than the original cost of the Series 2025A Bond to the Owner. Purchasers of the Series 2025A Bonds should consult their own tax advisors as to the treatment, computation and collateral consequences of amortizable bond premium.

The IRS has initiated an expanded program for the auditing of tax-exempt bond issues, including both random and targeted audits. It is possible that the Series 2025A Bonds will be selected for audit by the IRS. It is also possible that the market value of the Series 2025A Bonds might be affected as a result of such an audit of the Series 2025A Bonds (or by an audit of similar municipal obligations). No assurance can be given that in the course of an audit, as a result of an audit, or otherwise, Congress or the IRS might not change the Code (or interpretation thereof) subsequent to the issuance of the Series 2025A Bonds to the extent that it adversely affects the exclusion from gross income of interest (and original issue discount) on the Series 2025A Bonds or their market value.

SUBSEQUENT TO THE ISSUANCE OF THE SERIES 2025A BONDS THERE MIGHT BE

FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL STATUTORY CHANGES (OR JUDICIAL OR REGULATORY

CHANGES TO OR INTERPRETATIONS OF FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL LAW) THAT AFFECT THE FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL TAX TREATMENT OF THE SERIES 2025A BONDS, INCLUDING THE

IMPOSITION OF ADDITIONAL FEDERAL INCOME OR STATE TAXES BEING IMPOSED ON OWNERS OF TAX-EXEMPT STATE OR LOCAL OBLIGATIONS, SUCH AS THE SERIES 2025A BONDS. THESE CHANGES COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET VALUE OR LIQUIDITY OF THE SERIES 2025A BONDS. NO ASSURANCE CAN BE GIVEN THAT SUBSEQUENT TO THE ISSUANCE OF THE SERIES 2025A BONDS STATUTORY CHANGES WILL NOT BE INTRODUCED

OR ENACTED OR JUDICIAL OR REGULATORY INTERPRETATIONS WILL NOT OCCUR HAVING THE EFFECTS DESCRIBED ABOVE. BEFORE PURCHASING ANY OF THE SERIES 2025A BONDS,

ALL POTENTIAL PURCHASERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING

POSSIBLE STATUTORY CHANGES OR JUDICIAL OR REGULATORY CHANGES OR 2127
34 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002

INTERPRETATIONS, AND THEIR COLLATERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES RELATING TO THE SERIES 2025A BONDS.

Bond Counsel’s opinions may be affected by actions taken (or not taken) or events occurring (or not occurring) after the date hereof. Bond Counsel has not undertaken to determine, or to inform any person, whether any such actions or events are taken or do occur. The Indenture and the Tax Certificate relating to the Series 2025A Bonds permit certain actions to be taken or to be omitted if a favorable opinion of Bond Counsel is provided with respect thereto. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion as to the effect on the exclusion from gross income of interest (and original issue discount) for federal income tax purposes with respect to any Series 2025A Bond if any such action is taken or omitted based upon the advice of counsel other than Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth LLP.

Although Bond Counsel has rendered an opinion that interest (and original issue discount) on the Series 2025A Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes provided that the Authority continues to comply with certain requirements of the Code, the ownership of the Series 2025A Bonds and the accrual or receipt of interest (and original issue discount) on the Series 2025A Bonds may otherwise affect the tax liability of certain persons. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any such tax consequences. Accordingly, before purchasing any of Series 2025A Bonds, all potential purchasers should consult their tax advisors with respect to collateral tax consequences relating to the Series 2025A Bonds.

Should interest (and original issue discount) on the Series 2025A Bonds become includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes, the Series 2025A Bonds are not subject to early redemption and will remain outstanding until maturity or until redeemed in accordance with the Indenture.

A complete copy of the proposed form of opinion of Bond Counsel is attached hereto as Appendix D.

CERTAIN LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the Series 2025A Bonds and certain other legal matters are subject to the approving opinion of Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth LLP, Bond Counsel. Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth LLP, is also acting as Disclosure Counsel for the City. A complete copy of the proposed form of Bond Counsel opinion is contained in Appendix D hereto. Bond Counsel undertakes no responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of this Official Statement. Bond and Disclosure Counsel will receive compensation from the City contingent upon the sale and delivery of the Series 2025A Bonds. From time to time, Bond Counsel represents the Underwriter on matters unrelated to the Series 2025A Bonds. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Underwriter by Hawkins Delafield & Wood LLP, for the Trustee by its counsel, and for the Insurer by its counsel. Counsel to the Underwriter will receive compensation contingent upon the issuance of the Series 2025A Bonds.

ABSENCE OF LITIGATION
To the best knowledge of the City and the Authority, there is no action, suit or proceeding pending or threatened either restraining or enjoining the execution or delivery of the Series 2025A Bonds, the Lease Agreement, the Ground Lease or the Indenture, or in any way contesting or affecting the validity of the foregoing or any proceedings of the Authority or the City taken with respect to any of the foregoing. 2128
35 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002

UNDERWRITING
The Series 2025A Bonds are being purchased by Bofa Securities, Inc. (the “Underwriter”). The Underwriter will purchase the Series 2025A Bonds from the Authority at an aggregate purchase price of $__________ (representing the principal amount of the Series 2025A Bonds, plus net original issue premium of $________ and less an Underwriter’s discount of $_________). The purchase agreement relating to the Series 2025A Bonds provides that the Underwriter will purchase all of the Series 2025A Bonds if any are purchased. The obligation to make such purchase is subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in such purchase agreement, the approval of certain legal matters by counsel and certain other conditions.

BofA Securities, Inc. has entered into a distribution agreement with its affiliate Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (“MLPF&S”). As part of this arrangement, BofA Securities, Inc. may distribute securities to MLPF&S, which may in turn distribute such securities to investors through the financial advisor network of MLPF&S. As part of this arrangement, BofA Securities, Inc. may compensate MLPF&S as a dealer for their selling efforts with respect to the Series 2025A Bonds.

The initial offering prices that are stated on the inside front cover page of this Official Statement may be changed from time to time by the Underwriter. The Underwriter may offer and sell the Series 2025A Bonds to certain dealers (including dealers depositing Series 2025A Bonds into investment trusts), dealer banks, banks acting as agent and others at prices lower than said public offering prices.

The Underwriter and its affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, advisory, investment management, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage services. The Underwriter and its affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various advisory and investment banking services for the Authority, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses.

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the Underwriter and its affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (which may include bank loans and credit default swaps) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers and may at any time hold long and short positions in such securities and instruments. Such investment and securities activities may involve securities and instruments of the Authority.

The Underwriter and its affiliates may also communicate independent investment recommendations, market color or trading ideas and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such assets, securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they should acquire, long and/or short positions in such assets, securities and instruments.

RATINGS
S&P Global Ratings, a Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC business (“S&P”) is expected to assign a rating of “___” to the Insured Series 2025A Bonds based upon the delivery of the municipal bond insurance policy by the Insurer at the time of issuance of the Insured Series 2025A Bonds. S&P has assigned the Series 2025A Bonds the rating of “___” without regard to the delivery of the Policy. Such ratings reflect only the views of S&P and any desired explanation of the significance of such ratings should be obtained from S&P. Generally, a rating agency bases its ratings on the information and materials furnished to it and on investigations, studies and assumptions of its own. There is no assurance such ratings will continue for any given period of time or that such rating will not be revised downward or withdrawn entirely by the rating agency, if in the judgment of such rating agency, circumstances so warrant. Any such downward revision or withdrawal of the rating may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Series 2025A Bonds. None of the Authority, the City or the Underwriter has undertaken any responsibility either to bring to the attention of 2129
36 4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
the owners of the Series 2025A Bonds a proposed change in or withdrawal of the ratings or to oppose any such proposed revision or withdrawal.

MUNICIPAL ADVISOR
Urban Futures, Inc., Walnut Creek, California (the “Municipal Advisor”), served as municipal advisor to the Authority and the City with respect to the sale of the Series 2025A Bonds. The Municipal Advisor will receive compensation contingent upon the sale and delivery of the Series 2025A Bonds. The Municipal Advisor is not obligated to undertake, and has not undertaken to make, an independent verification or to assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the information contained in this Official Statement.

The Municipal Advisor is an independent advisory firm and is not engaged in the business of underwriting, trading or distributing municipal or other public securities.

The Annual Report will be filed by the City with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board. These covenants have been made in order to assist the Underwriter in complying with SEC Rule 15c2-12(b)(5).

INFORMATION REGARDING THE CITY
General
The City of Eastvale (the “City”) was incorporated on October 1, 2010 and is one of the newest cities in the State of California. The City is located in northwestern Riverside County in the Inland Empire region of Southern California. The City is surrounded by the cities of Chino and Ontario within San Bernardino County to the north and west and the cities of Corona, Norco, and Jurupa Valley in Riverside County to the south and east. The City has a total area of 13.1 square miles, of which 12.5 square miles is land and 0.6 square miles is water (the Santa Ana River).

The City provides a wide range of services including City Clerk, Communications, Planning, Economic Development, Public Works, Engineering, Building, Code Enforcement, Community Services and Recreation, and internal administrative services including Finance, Human Resources, and Risk Management. Animal control, library, and public safety (fire and police) services are provided to the City and its residents through contracts with the County of Riverside (the “County”). See the caption “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Management Discussion and Analysis—Public Safety.” Other services are provided directly through other agencies, including water and sewer service through the Jurupa Community Services District, parks and recreation through the Jurupa Community Services District and Jurupa Area Recreation and Parks District and public transit through the Riverside Transit Agency. The City has franchise agreements for electricity service through Southern California Edison, natural gas through SoCalGas, refuse collection through Waste Management and cable service through state franchise agreements with Charter Communications, DirecTV, and Frontier.

As of January 1, 2025, the City had a population of 69,799. The proximity of three heavily commercialized counties (two of the City’s borders are adjacent to San Bernardino County, and the City is within 8 miles of the Los Angeles County and Orange County borders), and the fact that the City is roughly squared between Interstate 15 and California State Routes 91, 60, and 71, has made the City popular with those who commute to these three counties for employment, making the City a community with ties across County borders.

For additional economic and demographic information regarding the City, see the caption “ECONOMIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION REGARDING THE CITY” in this Appendix A.

City Council
The City is a general law city and has a Council-Manager form of municipal government. The City Council has five members, who are elected on a nonpartisan basis. The five Councilmembers are elected by district and serve four-year staggered terms, and the Mayor and Mayor Pro Tempore are selected annually by the City Council to serve a one-year term. The Mayor and City Council serve as the legislative and policymaking body of the City. Based upon their own studies and investigations, and the advice and recommendations of the City Manager and his staff, the City Council makes basic, long-range policy decisions for the City. The City Council uses study sessions and committee meetings, beyond regular City Council meetings, to help determine policy. The City Council appoints the City Manager to act as the City’s chief executive officer and a City Attorney to be the legal adviser for the City.

4926-7169-6913v12/201004-0002
Risk Management
The City is a member of the Public Entity Risk Management Authority (“PERMA”), a joint powers insurance authority formed under Section 990 of the California Government Code for the purpose of jointly funding programs of insurance coverage for its members. PERMA is comprised of thirty-two participating member agencies: twenty-one cities, four transit agencies and seven special districts. The City participates in the liability, workers compensation, property, auto physical damage, cyber liability, employment practices, and crime insurance programs of PERMA.

The liability program provides coverage up to $50 million per occurrence for personal injury, bodily injury, property damage and public officials’ errors and omissions. The City has selected a $25,000 self-insured retention for this coverage and participates in risk sharing pools for losses up to $1 million, followed by PERMA’s membership in the Public Risk Innovation Solutions and Management (PRISM) for excess liability coverage. PERMA has a $1 million retention and PRISM provides coverage up to $50 million.

The workers compensation program provides statutory benefits for employee injuries arising out of and in the course of employment, and employers’ liability coverage. The City has selected a $50,000 self-insured retention for this coverage. The pooled coverage limit, per accident, is $500,000 with excess coverage providing statutory limits for workers’ compensation and $5,000,000 for employers’ liability through a combination of pooling and excess coverage. PERMA is a member of the Local Agency Workers’ Compensation Excess Joint Powers Authority (LAWCX) for excess coverage.

The property insurance program is a group purchased commercial insurance for property, boiler & machinery, and pollution coverage. The City has selected a $10,000 retention. Commercial property coverage is written on a replacement cost basis and all risk, eliminating the traditional commercial “named peril” policy.

The auto physical damage insurance program is also group purchased under a master insurance policy with accumulated values from all participants resulting in lower rates for members. Auto physical damage coverage is written on an agreed amount basis.

The Cyber Liability program provides coverage for information security & privacy liability, privacy notification costs, regulatory defense & penalties, website media content liability, cyber extortion, first party data protection & business interruption losses.

The Employment Practices Liability program provides coverage for employment related lawsuits, such as wrongful termination and discrimination, through participation in the Employment Risk Management Authority (ERMA). ERMA provides $1,000,000 in employment practices liability coverage and additional coverage is available through PRISM, PERMA’s excess insurer for liability coverage.

The crime insurance program provides public employee theft including faithful performance of duty, forgery or alteration, and computer fraud coverage under a master insurance policy.

For more information with respect to the insurance requirements under the Lease Agreement, see the caption “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE SERIES 2025 BONDS—Insurance” in this Official Statement.

See Note 11 to City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2024 set forth in Appendix B for more information regarding the City’s insurance coverage.

Development in the City
New development in the City (completed, underway, or planned) includes development adjacent to the Civic Center Project, including up to 2,500 planned residential units to be developed by New Home Company 2136
A-4
4926-7169-6913v12/201004-0002
and Quarterra over the next three years as well as future planned retail and commercial space on approximately 10 acres located to the southeast of the Civic Center Project.

The City’s first hotel, a Staybridge Suites with 119 guest rooms, opened in January 2025, and a Walmart Superstore of 170,995 square feet with 16-pump fuel stations is under construction and expected to be completed in early 2026.

In October 2024, a new 320-foot bridge over the Cucamonga Creek Channel was completed, known as the “Limonite Gap Closure Project” or the “Limonite Gap Bridge.” The Limonite Gap Bridge connects Limonite Avenue from Archibald Avenue to Hellman Avenue, creating a direct passage for vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians between Eastvale, Chino, and surrounding communities and providing a new east-west connection between the 15 and 71 highways.

CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Management Discussion and Analysis
Public Safety. Public Safety is the City’s largest expenditure, making up 48.5% of total General Fund operational expenditures. As the City contracts for Public Safety with Riverside County, the City Council only controls the level of service and has no control over the costs to provide those services. The Riverside County Sheriff charges the City a level rate for patrol services which is fully burdened and rolls in administrative costs and operational costs, such as vehicles and evidence. The City currently contracts for 96 hours of patrol daily; total daily patrol hours will increase to 108 daily patrol hours on July 1, 2025. The City also contracts for a myriad of dedicated services, including a traffic unit, zone policing unit, motor unit, community service officers, commercial enforcement, and sergeants to oversee the units. Dedicated positions are not backfilled when a Sheriff employee is unable to attend work for the day; as a result, the hourly rate for dedicated positions is lower.

The City is also responsible for providing miscellaneous supplies and equipment for dedicated positions, whereas the patrol rate includes all rollup costs. The rate for law enforcement services is expected to increase 9% for the 2025-26 fiscal year. The 2024-25 fiscal year saw a 7% rate increase and 2023-24 included a 2.45% increase.

According to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office, rates continue to rise due to labor negotiation efforts to bring pay in line with local agency police department pay schedules. Although the City Council has no control over the rates charged by the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office, the City Council can control the number of patrol hours and dedicated services included in the contract by lowering or increasing services to be provided by the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office.

Similarly, the City Council controls the level of service for Fire Service provision, but not the cost to provide service. Fire Services are provided through a contract with Riverside County Fire, which in turn contracts Fire Services to CalFIRE. Riverside County is not the hiring agency for the bulk of fire services and does not participate in state-wide labor negotiations for CalFIRE staff. Similar to law enforcement, the City contracts for basic fire services such as fire apparatus and dedicated staff to support fire safety efforts such as building inspections. Riverside County sets the minimum staffing levels for fire apparatus; the City has no control over the number of staff assigned to an engine or ladder truck. The City Council can control the number of fire apparatus and dedicated services included in the contract by lowering or increasing services as necessary.

In 2018, the City Council established a committed Public Safety Rate Increase Stabilization Reserve, which now totals $3.0 million. The funding level is described in the City’s Fund Balance Reserve Policy. See the caption “—Financial Policies.”
Pension and OPEB. The City’s pension liability remains low compared to other surrounding cities, primarily due to the City’s relatively recent incorporation date and the larger number of PEPRA employees versus classic (37 to 12 as of the June 30, 2023 valuation). The City’s miscellaneous plan is 90.0% funded and PEPRA is funded at 87.2%. Combined, the City’s unfunded accrued liability is $506,333 for both plans. Several 2137
A-5
4926-7169-6913v12/201004-0002
years ago, the City Council established a committed Pension Obligation reserve, which now totals $2.5 million.

The funding level is described in the City’s Fund Balance Reserve Policy.

Similar to pension, the City’s Other Post Employment Benefit (“OPEB”) liability remains low. This is primarily due to limited retiree benefits, a small staff, and a small pool of active retirees, which totals ten retired members and beneficiaries. Health benefits are provided through CalPERS. The City provides the Public Employees’ Medical & Hospital Care Act (PEMHCA) minimum benefits to eligible retirees in accordance with CalPERS requirements, which is $158 for calendar year 2025. The City’s annual contribution for retiree medical is projected to be $41,845 by fiscal year 2037-38. The City annually funds OPEB at the full actuarially determined contribution, which totals around $75,000 per fiscal year. See “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Retirement Systems” and “—Other Post-Employment Benefits.” Appropriations Limit. The City has exceeded its annual Gann Appropriations Limit each year since 2021, because of the City’s high sales tax revenues. In 2021, the Eastvale voters passed Measure A, approving a temporary increase to the appropriations limit. The temporary limit expired in March 2025. However, after Measure A was passed in 2021, AB137 was approved by the California Legislature and added section 7902.2 to the California Government Code. Section 7902.2 allows cities and counties to calculate proceeds of taxes from the Local Revenue Fund and Local Revenue Fund 2011 and subsequently increase the appropriations limit for the applicable fiscal year based on those calculations. The City then notifies the California Director of Finance, which then requires the appropriations limit of the State be reduced by the amounts reported by cities and counties. The City calculates the normal appropriations limit and then applies the calculations specified in 7902.2 to arrive at the new appropriations limit. These calculations are specified in detail each year in the City’s budget document. See “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Constitutional Appropriations Limit.” Sales Tax Revenues. The City has a concentration of sales tax from one producer within the City (referred to herein as the “Largest Taxpayer”). This significant increase in sales tax revenues started in early 2021, and since then the City Council has utilized only a portion of the sales tax revenues from the Largest Taxpayer for operating expenditures. Historically, the City Council utilized 100% of the sales tax revenues from the Largest Taxpayer as non-operating revenues. However, when it became apparent that the revenue source would likely continue into the future, City Council switched to a 50/50 model, allocating 50% of the Largest Taxpayer sales tax revenues to operating expenses and the remainder to non-operating expenditures, such as capital expenditures. Currently, the City Council utilizes 60% of the Largest Taxpayer’s sales tax revenues for operating expenditures and utilizes the remaining 40% for non-operating expenditures, such as capital expenditures. See “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Sales Taxes.” Accounting and Financial Reporting
The City maintains its accounting records in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and the standards established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”).

The City’s government-wide financial statements include a statement of net position and a statement of activities. These statements present summaries of governmental and business-type activities for the City accompanied by a total column. The City does not currently have any business-type activity. Certain eliminations have been made as prescribed by GASB Statement No. 34 in regard to interfund activities, payables, and receivables. All internal balances in the statement of net position have been eliminated except those representing balances between the governmental activities and the business-type activities, which are presented as internal balances and eliminated in the total primary government column. Governmental activities which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support. Currently, the City does not have any business-type activities.

The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific 2138
A-6
4926-7169-6913v12/201004-0002
function or segment. Program revenues include charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment, as well as grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.

Separate financial statements are provided for governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary funds, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements.

The City does not have any proprietary funds.

The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the fiduciary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Accordingly, all of the City’s assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, including capital assets, as well as infrastructure assets, and long-term liabilities, are included in the statement of net position. The statement of activities presents changes in net position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred. The types of transactions reported as program revenues for the City are reported in three categories: (1) charges or services, (2) operating grants and contributions, and (3) capital grants and contributions.

Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified-accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in these funds when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they are both measurable and available). “Measurable” means the amount of the transaction can be determined and “available” means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the City considers property taxes collected after year-end as available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period.

Other revenue susceptible to accrual includes sales tax, state gasoline taxes, investment earnings, and certain other intergovernmental revenues. Expenditures in the governmental funds are generally recognized in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred. However, debt service principal and interest expenditures on general long-term debt, including lease liabilities, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences, and claims and judgments, and postemployment benefits are recognized later based on specific accounting rules applicable to each, generally when payment is due. General capital asset acquisitions, including entering into contracts giving the City the right to use lease assets, are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Issuance of long-term debt and financing through leases are reported as other financing sources.

The City reports the following major governmental funds: the General Fund, the Miscellaneous Grants Fund, the TUMF Fund and the Capital Project Fund (Capital Projects). As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government- wide financial statements except for the effect of interfund services provided and used.

The City maintains sixteen individual governmental funds for financial reporting purposes. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance for the General Fund, Miscellaneous Grants Fund, TUMF Fund and Capital Projects Fund, which as indicated above are considered major funds. Data from the remaining governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation.

The General Fund is the government’s primary operating fund and accounts for all financial resources of the general government not accounted and reported in another fund. The General Fund accounts for all revenues and expenditures used to finance the traditional services associated with a municipal government, such 2139
A-7
4926-7169-6913v12/201004-0002
as general government, public safety, public works, community development, and community services and recreation.

Because the General Fund is the City’s primary operating fund, the City expects to pay Base Rental Payments from amounts in the General Fund. See the captions “—Budget Procedures, Current Budget and Historical Budget Information,” “—Comparative Change in Fund balance of the City” and “—Comparative General Fund Balance Sheets of the City” for more information regarding historical and projected results of the City’s General Fund. Information on the other governmental funds of the City as of June 30, 2024 is set forth in Appendix B.

Financial Policies
General. The City Council has adopted a comprehensive set of financial management policies to provide for: (i) budget policies and guidelines; (ii) financial forecasting; (iii) fund balance reserves; (iv) capital financing and debt management; and (v) investment management. A summary of these City Council policies is set forth below.

Fund Balance Reserve Policies. City Council approved an updated Fund Balance Reserve Policy on January 22, 2025. The updates memorialized practices that the City has undertaken over the past five years. The City has established a General Fund Operating Reserve fund balance policy which provides that at the end of each fiscal year, the General Fund should have a minimum fund balance of 50% of the current year’s General Fund annual budgeted operating expenditures, as calculated by the Finance Director.

Additionally, the City’s General Structural Fire Fund has an Operating Reserve fund balance policy that establishes a 75% Operating Reserve; at the end of each fiscal year, the Fire Fund should have a minimum assigned fund balance of 75% of the current year’s Fire Fund annual budgeted operating expenditures. The policy also provides for additional annual surpluses to be contributed to Capital Replacement reserves for future maintenance, including technology, fleet, streets, facilities, and catch basins. The General Fund also carries a minimum unassigned fund balance of 5% of the current fiscal year’s General und annual budgeted operating expenditures. Finally, the General Fund carries a pension obligation reserve, a public safety rate increase reserve, and a debt service reserve.

Although the debt service reserve policy is set at 50% of annual debt ser, currently 50% is Series 2025A held in the committed debt service reserve and the other 50% is held in the Operating Reserve. The City currently has 100% of the estimated debt service for the Series 2025A Bonds on deposit in the debt service reserve; once the Series 2025A Bonds are issued, 50% of the annual debt service amount will be moved to the Operating Reserve. Following issuance of the Series 2025A Bonds, the City’s policies will require funding of the debt service reserve with 50% of Bond debt service and the remaining 50% of annual debt service in the Operating Reserve.

These target amounts have been established in order to provide a reasonable level of assurance that the City’s day-to-day operations will be able to continue even if circumstances occur where revenues are insufficient to cover expenditures. The City’s policy establishes the priority for spending reserves and authorizes and directs the Finance Director/City Treasurer to prepare financial reports which accurately categorize fund balance as per GASB Statement No. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions.

The City sets aside certain other fund balances as reserves to save and plan for the future. Many fund balances other than the General Fund are set aside and unavailable for general use due to the nature of the revenues for which they were received (i.e., Gas Tax, Measure A, Fire Fund, and Landscape Maintenance). The remaining fund balances can be set aside or committed for other purposes as determined by the City Council.

These committed reserves are a way to invest in the future and save for a “rainy day.” 2140
A-8
4926-7169-6913v12/201004-0002
Five-Year Forecast. A five-year forecast, including revenues and expenditures, is prepared annually for all funds to provide strategic perspective to each annual budget process. The five-year forecast is updated during the annual budget process and again during the annual mid-year review. The model forecasts conservative revenue increases and known increases to expenditures based on economic projections. The model can be adjusted to reflect expected service increases based on the City Council’s strategic plan; staff utilizes the model to project service increases and related costs to assist the City Council in making prudent financial decisions related to the timing of service increase implementation, particularly with public safety. The model utilizes the Capital Improvement Plan and staff calculates available fund balance in all funds for the complete five-year period. This ensures that capital projects are adequately planned for and funded.

Interim Financial Reporting. Starting in 2020 and continuing currently, Finance staff prepares a quarterly interim financial report that details the City’s budget to actuals performance. The report is filed quarterly with a City Council agenda. The report includes several summary schedules, General Fund Summary by Category and Department, Operating Summary, Other Funds Summary, Available Resources, Contingency Calculation, and Appropriation Limit Summary. The fourth quarter report, while issued before audited financials are available, includes detailed narrative about the General Fund and is available in early Fall each year.

Capital Financing and Debt Management Policy. The City has adopted a debt management policy (the “Debt Management Policy”) in compliance with California Government Code Section 8855. The Debt Management Policy provides that all debt issued, including use of the lease-purchase method, will be repaid within a period not to exceed 120% of the expected useful lives of the improvements financed by the debt and in no event should exceed the lesser of 30 years or the period of time until the sunset of a revenue source used to repay the bonds. The Debt Management Policy also provides that the City will refrain from utilizing longterm borrowing to finance current operational costs and that short-term borrowing may be utilized for the temporary funding of operational cash flow deficits or anticipated revenues, where anticipated revenues are defined as an assured revenue source with the anticipated amount based on conservative estimates. The City may issue short-term debt when there is a defined repayment source and amortization of principal. In anticipation of issuing debt and to ensure compliance with SB1029, the City Council adopted an updated Debt Management and Disclosure Policy on January 22, 2025. The updates primarily expanded the existing policy by clarifying the policy’s objective and added additional detail regarding debt considerations, debt capacity, debt term, inter-fund borrowing, internal controls, and disclosure procedures.

Investment Policy. The City invests cash balances in conformance with the City Council adopted Investment Policy (the “Investment Policy”). The Investment Policy provides that the investment of the funds of the City shall be guided by the goals of safety, liquidity, diversification and return on investments in that order of priority. The Investment Policy also provides that investments will be made only in those instruments specifically authorized by California State laws (Government Code sections 53600-53609), and to no greater an extent than those authorized by those laws. The City generally limits investments in any one issuer, except U.S.

Treasuries, Federal Agencies, supranational, and pooled funds (i.e., money market funds, local government investment pools, and the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF)), to no more than 5% regardless of security type.

The City Treasurer is required to submit a quarterly investment report to the City Council; however, in order to comply with Government Code sections 53607 and 53646 the City currently issues a monthly investment report.

The majority of unrestricted cash is combined into several pooled investment bank accounts to facilitate effective management of the City’s resources. The Finance Director/City Treasurer invests temporarily idle funds in accordance with Government Code Sections 53600 et al, 16429.1 and 53684 and an Investment Policy approved by the City Council and each year, the current policy was last updated on July 24, 2024. Permissible investments include obligations of the U.S. Government, Federal, State, and Local Agencies, Government Sponsored Enterprises, Medium Term Corporate Notes, Certificates of Deposit, Bankers’ Acceptances, Commercial Paper rated A-1 by Standard and Poor’s Corporation, P-1 by Moody’s Investors Service or F-1 by 2141

Budget Procedure, Current Budget and Historical Budget Information Budget Procedure. The City strives to maintain a balanced budget. Per the City’s adopted Budget policy, the total appropriations shall not exceed the total of estimated revenues. Unassigned fund balance may only be utilized for non-operating one-time expenditures, replacement of temporary declines in revenue, or to offset future increases in revenue not yet recognized.

The City’s budgetary process begins in January of each year, starting with building budget targets and key projections followed by one City Council goal setting budget workshop session. The Finance Department works in cooperation with all City departments to formulate revenue projections for the upcoming fiscal year.

From this, the individual departments use the projected revenues to prioritize and recommend the next fiscal year’s objectives. The City Manager’s Office and the Finance Department review each budget proposal, revenue assumptions, and all current financial obligations, before preparing the proposed document for the City Council.

Additionally, the Finance Department projects fund balances for the next five years, which provides a guideline for funding within the Capital Improvement Plan. At this time revenue and expenditure estimates and projected fund balances are also keyed into the City’s long term planning model. The draft budget is prepared for the City Manager’s review. The City Council reviews the Proposed Budget, through a series of workshops, with the final adoption scheduled during the second City Council meeting in June. 2142
A-10
4926-7169-6913v12/201004-0002
The City Council may modify appropriations at any time with majority approval. The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted appropriations in any sum of appropriated funds between accounts, departments, programs and funds, provided no change is made to the total amount of appropriations for the City. At year end, all unencumbered budgeted amounts lapse, subject to requests for budget rollovers to the next fiscal year, which are limited to non-operating expenditures. Outstanding encumbrances related to capital improvement projects are generally carried forward into the new fiscal year with City Manager approval.

Department heads are responsible for maintaining control of expenditures in the expedient administration of programs. If increased budget appropriation needs are identified at an interim period during the fiscal year the following procedures are implemented. If additional appropriations are not required, Department Heads may request approval from the City Manager to transfer budget appropriations between accounts, departments, or programs. If additional appropriations are required, formal budgetary authority via resolution will be requested from the City Council.

Fiscal Year 2025-26 Adopted Budget. The City’s budget for fiscal year 2025-26 (the “2025-26 Budget”) was adopted by the City Council on [June 25], 2025. The 2025-26 adopted General Fund Budget consists of both the General Fund and Structural Fire Fund and included $88.0 million in revenues and $84.8 million in expenditures, inclusive of interfund transfers. Furthermore, in the 2025-26 Budget, the General Fund is projected to complete the 2025-26 fiscal year with a $3.2 million overall budget surplus, which is the result of operating revenues being projected to exceed operating expenditures by $14.4 million and non-operating expenditures being projected to exceed non-operating revenues by $11.3 million, primarily due to project appropriations from reserve.

The projected revenues for the General Fund in the 2025-26 Budget total $88,046,971, consisting of operating revenues of $67,519,371 and non-operating revenues of $20,527,600. The principal revenue sources for the General Fund are sales and use taxes, franchise fees, intergovernmental revenues, and property taxes.

Sales tax is the City’s largest revenue contributor, comprising approximately 56% of the total General Fund revenues in the 2025-26 Budget. [Approximately 74% of the City’s fiscal year 2023-24 sales tax revenue was produced by a single business operating in the City. This percentage represents the total sales tax produced by the single business, in addition to a back payment attributable to the single business. Excluding the back payments for both fiscal year 2021-22 and 2022-23, the percentage generated by a single business in the City totaled 69% of all sales tax revenues.] See the caption “—Sales Tax—Concentration of Sales Tax Revenues.” Although property tax is often a top revenue source for municipalities, this category is the third largest for the City, totaling only approximately 6% of total revenues in the 2025-26 Budget. Intergovernmental is the third largest revenue source at 8% and is comprised primarily of property taxes received in lieu of vehicle license fees.

See the caption “—Tax and Fee Revenues By Source.”
Prior to incorporation, a revenue neutrality agreement was entered into with the County of Riverside and adopted by the City Council and Riverside County Board of Supervisors. The agreement was first approved in 2009 and subsequently amended in 2011 and 2013. The current amended agreement requires the City to annually pay a mitigation fee to the County. The base amount was established at $384,351 and increases annually by the Consumer Price Index. The mitigation fee for fiscal year 2023-24 was $556,342. Up to 50% of the mitigation fee may be paid from the City’s Structural Fire Fund. In addition, as compensation for Mutual Aid for Regional Fire Services, any accumulated available fund balances in excess of $500,000 must be paid to the County of Riverside. Currently, the fund has accumulated $19.5 million as of June 30, 2024. The City holds the funds in assigned and committed reserves. The first is the Operating Reserve described above in the fund balance section and the second is a committed reserve to build and operate a third fire station. The General Fund also holds a committed reserve for the purchase of a fire truck for the third fire station. City staff has met with County staff to discuss the accumulation of a balance in the Structural Fire Fund, and have agreed that the City’s construction of a third fire station meets the mutual aid intent of the Revenue Neutrality Agreement.

Budget Considerations Regarding the Project and the Series 2025 Bonds. Since fiscal year 2025, the City has included projected Series 2025A Bond debt service and operational costs associated with the Project in 2143
A-11
4926-7169-6913v12/201004-0002
its five-year financial planning model. The City reserved $6.5 million in annual debt service and approximately $3.0 million to operate the Project facilities within the five-year outlook and ensured that projected General Fund revenues would be adequate to pay these costs during the forecast period.

Capital Improvement Plan. In connection with the adoption of its annual budget, the City by policy adopts a five-year budget plan for capital improvements (the “Capital Improvement Plan”) which includes cost estimates, methods of financing, time schedules, and future operating or maintenance costs. Projects included in the Capital Improvement Plan are infrastructure, improvements, maintenance, and equipment that exceed $50,000 in cost and will have a useful life of at least ten years. The Capital Improvement Plan does not appropriate funds in future years, but rather, it functions as a budgeting and planning tool which supports actual appropriations that are made through adoption of the budget.

The City’s adopted Capital Improvement Plan for fiscal year 2025-26 (the “2025-26 CIP”) covers capital projects from fiscal years 2025-26 through 2029-30. Over such five-year period, the 2025-26 CIP includes approximately $365.7 million in capital projects and for fiscal year 2025-26 in particular, funds have been appropriated for capital projects totaling approximately $110.4 million.

For the Project, staff utilized the most recent construction estimate to project budget, however because the budget is an estimate the budget will likely require adjustments after bids are received. The 2025-26 CIP includes $203.6 million in budget for the Project through fiscal year 2026-27. The sources are a combination of existing General Fund reserves specific to the project, development impact fee reserves and future revenues, and bond proceeds. At this time, staff expects the General Fund to initially provide $156.3 million, currently a combination of cash reserves and fiscal year 2025-26 non-operating revenues, to the Project. Staff expect to recommend the adoption of a development impact fee nexus study and fee schedule during the summer of 2025 to the City Council. The new development impact fees may generate up to $49.4 million in funds specific to the Project as development continues throughout the City. Staff plan to propose to the City Council a General Fund loan to the development impact fee funds. The interfund loan will provide an additional funding source for the Project, however because fees are contingent upon development the flow of revenue is unknown. See the caption “THE PROJECT—Plan of Finance” in this Official Statement.

The remaining projects described in the 2025-26 CIP are expected to be financed from a variety of funding and revenues sources, including the General Fund, gas tax revenues received by the City, revenues received from the County’s Measure A sales tax, development impact fees and various other federal and state funding sources. Other projects within the 2025-26 CIP that are expected to utilize General Funds include Civic Center Parking Structure ($4.5 million). A majority of these projects will utilize reserves and/or future nonoperating General Fund revenues. 2144

(1) See Table 7.
(2) Consists primarily of property tax in lieu of VLF. See the captions “—Tax and Fee Revenues by Source” and “— Intergovernmental Revenues.”
(3) Revenue neutrality is an annual mitigation fee payment to the County of Riverside to mitigate the impact of the City’s incorporation on the County’s General Fund.
(4) GASB 87 required the City, beginning in 2020-21, to record leases as a right to use an underlying asset, as a result the budget is included in an operating category, but the expenditures are recorded in debt service (principal and interest expense). (5) Excess budget surplus has been annually set aside for special projects, in particular for the Civic Center Project. (6) Transfers out are primarily contributions to the City’s capital replacement reserves and Capital Improvement Project funds. (7) In fiscal year 2020-21, the City was required to implement GASB 87, relating to leases. This resulted in the City recording offsetting entries to revenue and expense to present the full amortized cost of the right to use a lease asset. (8) See footnote (8) to Table 5 regarding the City’s plans to use a portion of the General Fund balance for the Civic Center Project and construction of a fire station.

(1) Increase in fiscal year 2023-24 due to a negative cash entry to cover negative fund balances in special revenue funds. $5.4 million is attributable to reimbursable grant funds that were not eligible for reimbursement in the 2023-24 fiscal year. The remaining balance is attributable to several special district funds with negative fund balances, primarily the City’s landscape maintenance districts and community facilities districts for which expenditures exceed the maximum permitted assessment or special tax levy, as applicable. (2) Represents amounts that are not in a spendable form (such as inventory) or are required to be maintained intact. (3) Represents amounts constrained to restricted purposes by their providers (such as grantors, bondholders and higher levels of government) through constitutional provisions or by enabling legislation. (4) Represents amounts contracted to specific purposes by a government itself using the highest level of decision-making authority (i.e., the City Council). To be reported as committed, amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the highest level of decision-making authority takes the same action to remove or change the constraint. (5) Represents amounts a government intends to use for a specific purpose. The City Council has delegated the authority to assign unrestricted fund balance to the City Manager or the City Manager’s designee per the City Council’s Fund Balance Reserve Policy.

Constitutional Appropriations Limit
As described further under the caption “CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS—Article XIIIB of the State Constitution” in this Official Statement, the City is subject to the constitutional appropriations limit, also known as the “Gann Appropriations Limit.” Under Article XIIIB of the State Constitution, the appropriations limit of each government entity applies to “proceeds of taxes,” which consist of tax revenues and the investment proceeds thereof, State subventions and certain other funds, including proceeds from regulatory licenses, user charges or other fees to the extent that such proceeds exceed “the cost reasonably borne by such entity in providing the regulation, product or service.” “Proceeds of taxes” excludes tax refunds and some benefit payments such as unemployment insurance. No limit is imposed on the appropriation of funds which are not “proceeds of taxes,” such as reasonable user charges or fees, and certain other non-tax funds. Article XIIIB also does not limit appropriation of local revenues to pay debt service on bonds existing or authorized as of October 1, 1979, or subsequently authorized by the voters, appropriations required to comply with mandates of courts or the federal government, appropriations for qualified capital outlay projects, and appropriation by the State of revenues derived from any increase in gasoline taxes and motor vehicle weight fees above January 1, 1990 levels.

The State and each local government entity has its own appropriations limit. Each year, the limit is adjusted to allow for changes, if any, in the cost of living, the population of the jurisdiction, and any transfer to or from another government entity of financial responsibility for providing services. Proposition 111 requires that each local government’s actual appropriations be tested against its limit every two years. If the aggregate “proceeds of taxes” for the preceding two-year period exceeds the aggregate limit, the excess must be returned to the agency’s taxpayers through tax rate or fee reductions over the following two years.

The voters of the City at the first municipal election held on November 6, 2012 established a permanent appropriation limit of $15,518,412, which was established without the VLF revenues, which were rescinded by the State earlier in 2012 and before the appropriations limit was adopted, and as a result the VLF revenues were not included in the appropriations limit calculation. The VLF revenues were reinstated in fiscal year 2017-18, which caused the City’s revenues to increasingly approach the appropriations limit each subsequent fiscal year.

On March 2, 2021, the voters of the City passed a measure to temporarily increase the City’s appropriations limit for a period of four years to $33,000,000 as of March 3, 2021. As the temporary limit is only valid for a period of four years, the City continues to calculate the City’s previous appropriations limit; once the temporary limit expires the previous limit will be re-enacted at the adjusted level unless another measure is passed by the City’s voters to again temporarily increase the limit.

Effective July 2021 and September 2021, government code 7902.2.2 was updated via AB 137 and AB 163. The code update allows cities and counties to calculate the appropriations limit with consideration taken to the amount of sales and vehicle license fee revenue generated through the Local Revenue Fund (LRF). The update allows cities and counties exceeding the appropriations limit due to specific LRF revenues to increase the appropriations limit for a given fiscal year by notifying the State’s Director of Finance and subsequently requesting the State to reduce the State appropriations limit by the same amount. The City has utilized this section of the government code to recalculate the appropriations limit and notify the State of the overages since fiscal year 2023-24.

Largely due to the recent increase in sales tax received by the City described under the caption “—Sales Taxes,” the City has recently exceeded is constitutional appropriations limit and a significant portion of the new sales tax revenue has therefore been restricted to various capital improvements. The City calculated an appropriations limit of $42,562,311 for fiscal year 2024-25. The City’s appropriations that are subject to the limit are $48,555,657. Total general fund appropriations for fiscal year 2024-25 are 162.5% of the limit. 2151

Sales Taxes
General. During fiscal year 2023-24, sales and use tax (“sales tax”) receipts of approximately $58.3 million provided the largest tax revenue source for the City, contributing approximately 75% of total General Fund revenues. [General Fund sales tax revenues of approximately $50.1 million are budgeted to be received during fiscal year 2024-25.] A sales tax is imposed on retail sales or consumption of personal property. The basic sales tax rate is established by the State Legislature, and local overrides may be approved by voters. The current total sales tax rate in the City is 7.75%, which includes the 7.00% sales tax rate established by the State Legislature, a 0.5% sales tax rate for the County’s Measure A (passed in 1988) and 0.25% for the Riverside County Transportation Authority’s voter-approved sales tax rate. County Measure A and Riverside County Transportation Authority sales taxes are restricted to specific transportation related uses.

Concentration of Sales Tax Revenues. A local business changed its business structure during fiscal year 2020-21, which lead to a significant increase in sales tax revenues to the City. The business, referred to herein as the “Largest Taxpayer,” changed from an out-of-state corporation to an in-state corporation. The business structure change shifted the sales tax allocation from a statewide allocation through the County sales tax pool, where the tax was distributed pro-rata throughout the State, to a local sales tax allocation based upon the businesses’ point-of-sale or fulfillment of the sale. The change caused an increase in sales tax received by the City of approximately 225%, or approximately $30.0 million, over the City’s regular recurring sales tax revenues. It is unknown if the business will continue to operate as an in-state corporation. Additionally, the business is located at a leased 2.0 million square foot facility under a lease that the City has been informed has a remaining term of approximately 6 years. The Largest Taxpayer recently opened another 4.0 million square foot facility approximately 4.0 miles from the Eastvale location. The Largest Taxpayer has also opened other facilities within the last year located within a ten-mile radius of the City.

There have been legislative attempts to redistribute e-commerce sales tax revenues among all California cities, and, therefore, there can be no assurances that such increased sales tax revenues will continue to be allocated to the City in the future. The League of California Cities’ legislative office and a working group have recommended several proposals for online sales tax distribution, including a proposal for a 50/50 split between fulfillment center host cities and the County sales tax pools and a proposal for a 60/40 split, with either 60% or 40% of sales tax remaining with host cities and the remainder returning to the County pools. No finalized plans have been made to recommend legislation to the League of California Cities General Assembly. A redistribution of e-commerce sales tax within the City would affect and reduce revenues from several businesses located within the City, including sales taxes paid by the Largest Taxpayer, but would also bring new sales tax to the City for online transactions made by residents and businesses. The California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) estimated a 50% sales tax reduction for Eastvale resulting from the 50/50 split proposal, but highlighted that the department does not have adequate access to data to make a reasonable projection. Similarly, no data is available for the 60/40 split proposals described above. The League of California Cities working group also recommended a phased implementation over five years, but no specific legislation has been drafted.

Accordingly (and also to address the City’s constitutional appropriations limit described under the caption “— Constitutional Appropriations Limit”), the City is currently using up to 60% of these additional revenues for operating costs, future and current, and the remaining 40% for one-time capital improvement projects including for the Project. See the captions “—Constitutional Appropriations Limit” in this Appendix A and “RISK FACTORS— Dependence on State for Certain Revenues.” Also see “THE PROJECT.” 2153

4926-7169-6913v12/201004-0002
Sales Tax Abatement Agreements. In accordance with the Eastvale Municipal Code, the City provides sales tax rebates to a local sales tax generator based on sales tax generated at a site developed within the City.

The City entered into a 20-year economic development agreement on March 22, 2023 for sales tax rebates with Rivian, LLC, in order to establish a significant tax-generating business, jobs, and occupancy of property within City boundaries. The rebates are calculated based on the total taxes generated by the business. The City will pay 65% of local sales taxes paid by Rivian for the first 20 quarters and the percentage drops to 50% for the remainder of the agreement term. For fiscal year 2023-24, the City abated local sales tax totaling $98,697.

The City is not negotiating or currently planning for any other sales tax abatement agreements.

Property Taxes
During fiscal year 2023-24, property tax receipts of approximately $13.2 million provided the second largest tax revenue source of the City, contributing approximately 17% of total General Fund revenues. [General Fund property tax revenues of approximately $13.3 million are budgeted to be received during fiscal year 2024-

25.] Such amounts do not include property taxes in lieu of VLF, as described under the caption “— Intergovernmental Revenues.”
In California, property which is subject to ad valorem taxes is classified as “secured” or “unsecured.” The secured classification includes property on which any property tax levied by a county becomes a lien on that property. A tax levied on unsecured property does not become a lien against the taxed unsecured property, but may become a lien on certain other property owned by the taxpayer. Every tax which becomes a lien on secured property has priority over all other liens, arising pursuant to State Law, on the secured property, regardless of the time of the creation of other liens. The valuation of property is determined as of January 1 each year, and installments of taxes levied upon secured property are due November 1 and February 1 and become delinquent on the following December 10 and April 10, respectively. Taxes on unsecured property are due July 1, and become delinquent August 31.

Secured and unsecured properties are entered separately on the assessment roll maintained by the county assessor. The method of collecting delinquent taxes is substantially different for the two classifications of property. The exclusive means of enforcing the payment of delinquent taxes with respect to property on the secured roll is the sale of the property securing the taxes of the State for the amount of taxes that are delinquent.

The taxing authority has four methods of collecting unsecured personal property taxes: (1) a civil action against the taxpayer; (2) filing a certificate in the office of the county clerk specifying certain facts in order to obtain a judgment lien on certain property of the taxpayer; (3) filing a certificate of delinquency for record in the County Recorder’s Office in order to obtain a lien on certain property of the taxpayer, and (4) seizure and sale of personal property, improvement or possessory interest belonging or taxable to the assessee.

A ten percent penalty is added to delinquent taxes which have been levied with respect to property on the secured roll. In addition, beginning on the July 1 following a delinquency, interest begins accruing at the rate of 1 1/2% per month on the amount delinquent. Such property may thereafter be redeemed by the payment of the delinquent taxes and the ten percent penalty, plus interest at the rate of 1 1/2% per month to the time of redemption. If taxes are unpaid for a period of five years or more, the property is deeded to the State and then is subject to sale by the county tax collector. A ten percent penalty also applies to the delinquent taxes or property on the unsecured roll, and further, an additional penalty of 1 1/2% per month accrues with respect to such taxes beginning on the varying dates related to the tax billing date.

Legislation enacted in 1984 (Section 75 et seq. of the Revenue and Taxation Code of the State of California), provides for the supplemental assignment and taxation of property as of the occurrence of a change in ownership or completion of new construction. Previously, statutes enabled the assessment of such changes only as of the next tax lien date following the change and thus delayed the realization of increased property taxes from the new assessment for up to 14 months. Collection of taxes based on supplemental assessments occurs throughout the year. Taxes due are prorated according to the amount of time remaining in the tax year, with the 2154
A-22
4926-7169-6913v12/201004-0002
exception of tax bills dated January 1 through May 31, which are calculated on the basis of the remainder of the current fiscal year and the full 12 months of the next fiscal year.

In the past, the State Legislature has shifted property taxes from cities, counties and special districts to the Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund. The term “ERAF” is often used as a shorthand reference for this shift of property taxes. In 1992-93 and 1993-94, in response to serious budgetary shortfalls, the State Legislature and administration permanently redirected over $3 billion of property taxes from cities, counties, and special districts to schools and community college districts. The 2004-05 State budget included an additional $1.3 billion shift of property taxes from certain local agencies, including the City, to occur in fiscal years 2004-05 and 2005-06. See “CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS—Proposition 1A” and “—Proposition 22” for a description of certain limitations on the State’s authority over local government revenue sources.

The table below sets forth the secured and unsecured assessed valuations for property in the City for the fiscal years 2014-15 through 2024-25.

The County operates under a statutory program entitled Alternate Method of Distribution of Tax Levies and Collections and of Tax Sale Proceeds (the “Teeter Plan”). Under the Teeter Plan local taxing entities receive 100% of their tax levies net of delinquencies, but do not receive interest or penalties on delinquent taxes collected by the County. The City’s share of the ad valorem property tax levy is included in the County’s Teeter Plan.

As a result, the City currently receives 100% of such levy and is not impacted by delinquencies in payment.

However, the County may choose to discontinue the Teeter Plan at any time.

The 10 largest property taxpayers in the City for fiscal year 2023-24 based on total assessed valuation, the land use and the percentage of the City’s total assessed value attributable to each are shown in the below table.

Intergovernmental Revenues
General. During fiscal year 2023-24, intergovernmental revenues of approximately $6.7 million (consisting of approximately $6.3 million of property taxes in lieu of VLF, as described further below) contributed approximately 7.0% of total General Fund revenues. [General Fund intergovernmental revenues of approximately $6.5 million (consisting of approximately $6.4 million of property taxes in lieu of VLF) are budgeted to be received during fiscal year 2024-25.]
Property Taxes In Lieu of VLF. The City’s intergovernmental revenues consist primarily of property taxes in lieu of Vehicle License Fees (“VLF”). VLF revenue was a subvention collected by the State and allocated to cities and counties based on a statutory formula. Several years ago, VLF were reduced by approximately two-thirds. However, the State continued to remit to cities and counties the same amount that those local agencies would have received if the VLF had not been reduced, known as the “VLF backfill.” The State VLF backfill was phased out, and as of fiscal year 2011-12, all of the VLF is now received through an inlieu payment from State property tax revenues referred to as Property Taxes in lieu of VLF. Calculations are now based on property valuations; therefore, as property valuations within the City grow so does the City’s VLF allocation. See the caption “—Property Taxes” above.

Other. The City also receives other General Fund revenue from other government agencies, principally from the State and Federal governments. These revenues include monies called subventions, as well as grants for specific projects, and reimbursements related to State mandated activities or disaster/emergency declarations.

These revenues can fluctuate from year-to-year for on-going programs and activities.

Historically, intergovernmental revenues also include maintenance reimbursement costs received from Jurupa Community Services District because certain streetlights purchased by the City from Southern California 2156
A-24
4926-7169-6913v12/201004-0002
Edison were located within assessment districts established by Jurupa Community Services District. However, the City has taken over administration of such assessment districts; accordingly, in fiscal year 2022-23 the City moved these revenues into special revenue funds to properly account for such revenues.

Franchise Fees
The City imposes fees on gas, electric, and cable television companies operating within the City. The City also imposes a franchise fee for refuse services. The fees range from 1% to 8% of gross receipts derived from business activities conducted within the City.

During fiscal year 2023-24, franchise fee receipts of approximately $2.7 million contributed approximately 4.2% of total General Fund Revenues. [General Fund franchise fee revenues of approximately $2.6 million are budgeted to be received during fiscal year 2024-25.] Franchise fees relating to recycling and solid waste collection have been the subject of recent litigation.

In the case of Robert Zolly et al. v. City of Oakland, two franchises awarded by the City of Oakland for recycling and municipal waste services were subject to challenge under Proposition 26. The City of Oakland argued that the franchise fees fell within the exception of Proposition 26 described under (d) above (“a charge for entrance to or use of local government property, or the purchase, rental, or lease of local government property”). In its ruling issued on August 11, 2022, in Robert Zolly et al. v. City of Oakland, the California Supreme Court found that the City of Oakland had failed to demonstrate that the right to use city streets for travel (i.e., to haul recyclable and municipal waste), as others use them, is a property right for which a fee can be imposed. The City’s current solid waste franchise fees generate approximately $1.6 million annually, and are budgeted to produce $1.65 million in fiscal year 2025-26. The City’s solid waste franchise fee has not been challenged and the City is evaluating the potential risk to this revenue stream. See “CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS—Proposition 26.” Licenses, Permits and Fees
The City collects both fixed fee and deposit-based permits for planning, building and safety, and engineering services for residential and commercial development. In February 2024, the City adopted a new user fee study that substantially reduced the number of administrative deposits the City collects in favor of fixed fees. The fees are based on the type of development activity and were adopted by resolution resulting from a Citywide comprehensive user fee and rate study.

During fiscal year 2023-24, revenues from licenses, permits and fees of approximately $3.9 million contributed approximately 4.2% of total General Fund revenues. [General Fund revenues from licenses and permits of approximately $5.5 million are budgeted to be received during fiscal year 2024-25.] Other Revenue Sources

Transient Occupancy Tax
General. When the City was incorporated, it adopted the County’s transient occupancy tax rate of 10%; however, the City has not historically received any transient occupancy tax revenues because until recently there have not been any hotels located within the City. The first hotel within the City opened in July 2024. The City currently estimates the new hotel will generate approximately $250,000 in transient occupancy tax revenues for fiscal year 2024-25, with the first full year of collections expected to be fiscal year 2025-26.

The City entered into a transient occupancy tax sharing and settlement agreement with the hotel operator on November 13, 2024. The City will rebate to the operator 80% of the transient occupancy tax generated by the hotel for ten years or until the operator is paid $6.0 million, whichever occurs first. In total, the City has paid $59,184 for two months of collected transient occupancy tax.

Long-Term Liabilities
Long-Term Debt. The City’s long-term obligations payable from the General Fund currently consist of various real property and equipment leases, as well as subscriptions with an aggregate total liability as of June 30, 2024 of approximately $1.3 million and compensated absences for employees.

For additional information with respect to the City’s outstanding long-term obligations, see Notes 7 and 8 to the audited financial statements for fiscal year 2023-24 attached to the Official Statement as Appendix B.

Short-Term Debt. The City currently has no short-term debt outstanding.

Retirement System
This caption contains certain information relating to the California Public Employees Retirement System (“CalPERS”). The information is primarily derived from information produced by CalPERS, its independent accountants and actuaries. The City has not independently verified the information provided by CalPERS and makes no representations nor expresses any opinion as to the accuracy of the information provided by CalPERS.

The annual comprehensive financial reports of CalPERS are available on its Internet website at www.calpers.ca.gov. The CalPERS website also contains CalPERS’ most recent actuarial valuation reports and other information concerning benefits and other matters. Such information is not incorporated by reference herein. The City cannot guarantee the accuracy of such information. Actuarial assessments are “forwardlooking” statements that reflect the judgment of the fiduciaries of the pension plans, and are based upon a variety of assumptions, one or more of which may not materialize or be changed in the future. Actuarial assessments will change with the future experience of the pension plans.

Plan Description. All qualified permanent and probationary employees are eligible to participate in the Public Agency Cost-Sharing Multiple-Employer Defined Benefit Pension Plan (“Plan”) administered by CalPERS. The Plan consists of a miscellaneous pool and a safety pool (also referred to as “risk pools”), which are comprised of individual employer miscellaneous and safety rate plans, respectively. Plan assets may be used to pay benefits for any employer rate plan of the safety and miscellaneous pools. Accordingly, rate plans within the safety or miscellaneous pools are not separate plans under generally accepted accounting principles.

Individual employers may sponsor more than one rate plan in the miscellaneous or safety risk pools. The City participates in one miscellaneous rate plan. Benefit provisions under the Plan are established by State statute and City resolution. CalPERS issues publicly available reports that include a full description of the pension plan regarding benefit provisions, assumptions and membership information that can be found on the CalPERS’ website, at www.calpers.ca.go.

Benefits Provided. CalPERS provides service retirement and disability benefits, annual cost of living adjustments and death benefits to plan members, who must be public employees and beneficiaries. Benefits are based on years of credited service, equal to one year of full time employment. Members with five years of total service are eligible to retire at age 50 with statutorily reduced benefits. All members are eligible for non-duty disability benefits after 10 years of service. The death benefit is one of the following: the Basic Death Benefit, the 1957 Survivor Benefit, or the Optional Settlement 2W Death Benefit. The cost of living adjustments for each plan are applied as specified by the Public Employees’ Retirement Law.

The Plan operates under the provisions of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law (“PERL”), the California Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act of 2013 (“PEPRA”), and the regulations, procedures and policies adopted by the CalPERS Board of Administration. The Plan’s authority to establish and amend the benefit terms are set by the PERL and PEPRA, and may be amended by the California state legislature and in some cases require approval by the CalPERS Board.

The Plan’s provisions and benefits in effect at June 30, 2024, are summarized as follows:

Miscellaneous Plan
Hire date Prior to January 1, 2013 On or after January 1, 2013 Benefit formula 2.0% @ 60 2.0% @ 62
Benefit vesting schedule 5 years of service 5 years of service Benefit payments Monthly for life Monthly for life
Minimum retirement age 50 52
Monthly benefits, as a % of eligible compensation 1.092% to 2.418% 1.0% to 2.5% Required employee contribution rates 7.00% 7.75%
Required employer contribution rates(1) 10.19% 7.96%

(1) As described under “—Contributions” below, CalPERS no longer collects required contributions for the unfunded portion of pension liability based on a percentage of payroll.

Employees Covered. As of the June 30, 2023 actuarial valuation date, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms of the Plan:

Description
Inactive employees or beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 10 Inactive employees entitled to but not yet receiving benefits 43 Active employees 49
Total 102

Contributions. Section 20814(c) of PERL requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. The total plan contributions are determined through CalPERS’ annual actuarial valuation process. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The employer is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees. Employer contribution rates may change if plan contracts are amended. Payments made by the employer to satisfy contribution requirements that are identified by the pension plan terms as plan member contributions requirements are classified as plan member contributions.

The required employer contribution is comprised of a Normal Cost component and a component equal to an amortized amount of the unfunded liability or Annual Unfunded Accrued Liability (“UAL”) Payment. The “Normal Cost” is the annual cost of service earned by active employees for the upcoming fiscal year, which is expressed as a percentage of payroll. The Annual UAL Payment is the amortized dollar amount needed to fund 2159
A-27
4926-7169-6913v12/201004-0002
past service credit earned (or accrued) for members who are currently receiving benefits, active members, and for members entitled to deferred benefits, as of the valuation date. The UAL Payment is a fixed dollar annual payment, billed monthly.

Beginning with fiscal year 2017-18, CalPERS began collecting employer contributions toward the Plan’s unfunded liability as dollar amounts instead of the prior method of a contribution rate. According to CalPERS, this change was to address potential funding issues that could arise from a declining payroll or reduction in the number of active members in the Plan. Funding the unfunded liability as a percentage of payroll could lead to the underfunding of the Plan. Due to stakeholder feedback regarding internal needs for total contributions expressed as an estimated percentage of payroll, the CalPERS reports include such results in the contribution projection set forth in the tables below. CalPERS indicates that these results are provided for information purposes only and contributions toward the unfunded liability will continue to be collected as set dollar amounts.

Employer contributions by the City to the Plan for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 were $452,959.

The actual employer payments of $451,400 made to CalPERS by the City during the measurement period ended June 30, 2023 differed from the City’s proportionate share of the employer’s contributions of $145,045 by $306,355, which is being amortized over the expected average remaining service lifetime in the Public Agency Cost-Sharing Multiple Employer Plan.

The tables below are derived from the City of Eastvale Annual Valuation Reports with valuation dates as of June 30, 2023 and delivered in July 2024 (the “2024 Reports”) and show the required and projected employer contributions for the next six fiscal years. Projected results reflect the adopted changes to the discount rates described in the 2024 Reports. Such projections also assume that all actuarial assumptions will be realized and that no further changes to assumptions, contributions, benefits, or funding will occur during the projection period. The projected Normal Cost percentages in the projections below does not reflect that the Normal Cost will decline over the time as new employees are hired into PEPRA or other lower cost benefit tiers.

The foregoing projections assumed the investment return for fiscal year 2023-24 would be 6.80% and beyond. CalPERS announced a preliminary net investment return of 9.3% for fiscal year 2023-24. As a result, the actual contribution requirements for fiscal year 2025-26 and the following years shown below can be expected to differ from such projections. No assurance can be provided that the City’s CalPERS plan expenses will not increase significantly in the future.

Total Pension Liability. The City’s total pension liability for the Plan is measured as the total pension liability, less the pension plan’s fiduciary net position. The total pension liability of the Plan is measured as of June 30, 2023, using an annual actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2022 rolled forward to June 30, 2023 using standard update procedures. A summary of principal assumptions and methods used to determine the total pension liability is as follows:

Valuation Date June 20, 2022
Measurement Date June 30, 2023
Actuarial Cost Method Entry Age Actuarial Cost Method
Asset Valuation Method Fair Value of Assets
Actuarial Assumptions
Discount Rate 6.90%
Inflation 2.50%
Salary Increases Varies by Entry Age and Service
Mortality Rate Table(1) Derived using CalPERS’ membership data for all funds Post Retirement Benefit Increase The lesser of contract COLA up to 2.30% until Purchasing Power Protection Allowance Floor on Purchasing Power applies, 2.30% thereafter

(1) The mortality table used was developed based on CalPERS-specific data. The probabilities of mortality are based on the 2021 CalPERS Experience Study for the period from 2001 to 2019. Pre-retirement and Post-retirement mortality rates include generational mortality improvement using 80% of Scale MP- 2020 published by the Society of Actuaries. For more details on this table, please refer to the CalPERS Experience Study and Review of Actuarial Assumptions report from November 2021 that can be found on the CalPERS website.

Pension Plan Fiduciary Net Position. Information about the Plan’s assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources, and fiduciary net position are presented in CalPERS’ audited financial statements, which are publicly available reports that can be obtained at CalPERS’ website, at www.calpers.ca.gov. The Plan’s fiduciary net position and additions to/deductions from the Plan’s fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis used by the pension plan, which is the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Benefits and refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the terms of the plan. Investments are reported at fair value.

The City maintains a Pension Obligation reserve, which is not included in the Plan assets but is available to pay the City’s pension liabilities. See the caption “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Management Discussion and Analysis—Pension and OPEB” and “—Financial Policies.” Proportionate Share of Total Pension Liability.

Pension Expenses and Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources Related to Pensions. On June 25, 2012, the Governmental Accounting Standards Board approved GASB Statement No. 68 (“GASB 68”) with respect to pension accounting and financial reporting standards for state and local governments and pension plans. GASB 68 states that, for pensions within the scope of the statement, a cost-sharing employer that does not have a special funding situation is required to recognize a net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources, deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense based on its proportionate share of the net pension liability for benefits provided through the pension plan. While the accounting standard changed financial statement reporting requirements, they do not impact funding policies of the pension systems.

The audited financial statements of the City for fiscal year 2023-24 attached hereto as Appendix B reflect the application of the GASB 68.

As of the start of the measurement period (July 1, 2022), the City’s total pension liability was $53,679.

For the measurement period ending June 30, 2023 (the measurement date), the City incurred a pension expense of $447,618.

At June 30, 2024, the City reported deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions as follows:

Deferred
Outflows of
Resources
Deferred
Inflows of
Resources
Pension contributions subsequent to measurement date $ 452,959 -- Changes in proportion 129,006 --
Differences in actual contributions vs. proportionate share of contributions 364,276 $ --
Difference between expected and actual experience 15,364 (2,383) Differences between projected and actual earnings on plan investments 48,693 --
Changes in assumptions 18,157 --
Totals $ 1,028,455 $ (1,770,950)
The amounts above are net of outflows and inflows recognized in the fiscal year 2022-23 measurement period expense. Contributions subsequent to the measurement date of $452,959 reported with deferred outflows of resources will be recognized as a reduction of the total pension liability in the upcoming fiscal year. Other amounts reported as deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions will be recognized in future pension expense as follows:

GASB Statement No. 75. In June 2015, GASB issued Statement No. 75, which became effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2017. The primary objective of Statement No. 75 is to improve accounting and financial reporting by state and local governments for postemployment benefits other than pensions (i.e., OPEB). Statement No. 75 is also intended to improve information provided by state and local governmental employers about financial support for OPEB that is provided by other entities. Statement No. 75 results from a comprehensive review of the effectiveness of existing standards of accounting and financial reporting for all postemployment benefits (pensions and OPEB) with regard to providing decision-useful information, supporting assessments of accountability and inter-period equity, and creating additional transparency.

More specifically, Statement No. 75 requires the liability of employers to be measured as the portion of the present value of projected benefit payments to be provided to current active and inactive employees that is attributed to those employees’ past periods of service (total OPEB liability), less the amount of the OPEB plan’s 2165

PROPOSED FORM OF BOND COUNSEL OPINION
___________, 2025
Eastvale Public Financing Authority
Eastvale, California
Re: $__________ Eastvale Public Financing Authority Lease Revenue Bonds, Series 2025A (Civic Center Project)
Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as bond counsel to the Eastvale Public Financing Authority (the “Authority”) in connection with the issuance by the Authority of $__________ Eastvale Public Financing Authority Lease Revenue Bonds, Series 2025A (Civic Center Project) (the “Bonds”), pursuant to the provisions of Article 4 (commencing with Section 6584) of Chapter 5 of Division 7 of Title 1 of the California Government Code (the “Bond Law”), and pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of July 1, 2025 (the “Indenture”), by and among the Authority, the City of Eastvale (the “City”) and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as Trustee.

The Bonds will be principally secured by base rental payments to be made by the City pursuant to a Lease Agreement, dated as of July 1, 2025 (the “Lease”), by and between the Authority and the City. We have examined the law and such certified proceedings and other documents, agreements, opinions and matters as we deem necessary to render this opinion. This opinion is based on current statutory and constitutional law and published court decisions as of the date hereof. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture.

As to questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied upon representations of the Authority contained in the Indenture and in the certified proceedings and certifications of public officials and others furnished to us, without undertaking to verify the same by independent investigation.

We have assumed the genuineness of all documents and signatures presented to us, the authenticity of documents submitted as originals and the conformity to originals of documents submitted as copies. We have not undertaken to verify independently, and have assumed, the accuracy of the factual matters represented, warranted or certified in the documents, and of the legal conclusions contained in the opinions referred to in the preceding paragraphs of this opinion. Furthermore, we have assumed compliance with all covenants and agreements contained in the Indenture, the Lease and the Ground Lease. We call attention to the fact that the rights and obligations under the Bonds, the Indenture, the Lease, the Ground Lease, the Assignment Agreement and the Tax Certificate may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium and other laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights, by the application of equitable principles and the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases and by the limitations on legal remedies against cities and public agencies in the State of California.

We express no opinion herein with respect to any indemnification, contribution, choice of law, choice of forum, penalty or waiver provisions contained in the Bonds, the Indenture, the Lease, the Ground Lease or the Assignment Agreement; nor do we express any opinion with respect to the state or quality of title to any of the real or personal property described in the Indenture, the Lease or the Ground Lease, or the accuracy or sufficiency of the description contained therein, or the remedies available to enforce liens on, any such property contained therein. [Additionally, we express no opinion with respect to the municipal bond insurance policy relating to the Insured Bonds.]
Based upon the foregoing we are of the opinion, under existing law, as follows:
2172
D-2
4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002

1. The Authority is a joint exercise of powers authority duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of California with the full power to enter into the Indenture and the Lease, to perform the agreements on its part contained therein and to issue the Bonds.

2. The Indenture and the Lease have each been duly authorized and approved by the Authority and the Indenture and the Lease constitute the valid and binding obligations of the Authority enforceable against the Authority in accordance with their respective terms. The Indenture creates a valid pledge of the Base Rental Payments and other moneys pledged under the Indenture, subject to the provisions of the Indenture.

3. The Indenture and the Lease have each been duly authorized and approved by the City and the Indenture and the Lease constitute the valid and binding obligations of the City enforceable against the City in accordance with their respective terms.

4. The Bonds have been duly and validly authorized by the Authority and are legal, valid and binding limited obligations of the Authority, enforceable in accordance with their terms and the terms of the Indenture. The Bonds are limited obligations of the Authority payable solely from the Base Rental Payments and other moneys pledged under the Indenture as provided in the Indenture, but are not a debt of the City, the State of California or any other political subdivision thereof within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory limitation, and, neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the City, the State of California, or any of its political subdivisions is pledged for the payment thereof. The Authority has no taxing power.

5. Under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions, and assuming the accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain covenants and requirements described herein, interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of calculating the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals; however, it should be noted that with respect to applicable corporations as defined in Section 59(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), interest (and original issue discount) with respect to the Bonds might be taken into account in determining adjusted financial statement income for purposes of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on such corporations.

6. Interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds is exempt from personal income taxes imposed in the State of California.

7. The difference between the issue price of a Bond (the first price at which a substantial amount of the Bonds of a maturity is to be sold to the public) and the stated redemption price at maturity with respect to such Bond constitutes original issue discount. Original issue discount accrues under a constant yield method, and original issue discount will accrue to a Bond Owner before receipt of cash attributable to such excludable income. The amount of original issue discount deemed received by a Bond Owner will increase the Bond Owner’s basis in the applicable Bond. Original issue discount that accrues to the Bond Owner is excluded from the gross income of such owner for federal income tax purposes, is not an item of tax preference for purposes of calculating the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals (as described in paragraph (5) above) and is exempt from State of California personal income tax.

8. The amount by which a Bond Owner’s original basis for determining loss on sale or exchange in the applicable Bond (generally the purchase price) exceeds the amount payable on maturity (or on an earlier call date) constitutes amortizable Bond premium which must be amortized under Section 171 of the Code; such amortizable Bond premium reduces the Bond Owner’s basis in the applicable Bond (and the amount of tax-exempt interest received), and is not deductible for federal income tax purposes. The basis reduction as a result of the amortization of Bond premium may result in a Bond Owner realizing a taxable gain when a Bond is sold by the owner for an amount equal to or less (under certain circumstances) than the original cost of the Bond to the owner. Purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors as to the treatment, computation and collateral consequences of amortizable bond premium. 2173
D-3
4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002
The opinions expressed in paragraphs (5) and (7) above as to the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds are based upon certain representations of fact and certifications made by the District and others and are subject to the condition that the Authority and the City comply with all requirements of the Code, that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds to assure that such interest (and original issue discount) will not become includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes. Failure to comply with such requirements of the Code might cause interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance of the Bonds. The Authority and the City have covenanted to comply with all such requirements. Except as set forth in paragraphs (5), (6), (7) and (8) above, we express no opinion as to any tax consequences related to the Bonds.

Certain requirements and procedures contained or referred to in the Indenture, the Lease and Tax Certificate may be changed, and certain actions may be taken, under the circumstances and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Lease and Tax Certificate, upon the advice or with the approving opinion of counsel nationally recognized in the area of tax-exempt obligations. We express no opinion as to the effect on the exclusion of interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes on and after the date on which any such change occurs or action is taken upon the advice or approval of counsel other than Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth LLP.

Our opinion is limited to matters governed by the laws of the State of California and federal law. We assume no responsibility with respect to the applicability or the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

The opinions expressed herein are based upon an analysis of existing statutes, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions and cover certain matters not directly addressed by such authorities. We call attention to the fact that the foregoing opinions may be affected by actions taken (or not taken) or events occurring (or not occurring) after the date hereof. We have not undertaken to determine, or to inform any person, whether such actions or events are taken (or not taken) or do occur (or do not occur). Our engagement with respect to the Bonds terminates upon their issuance, and we disclaim any obligation to update the matters set forth herein.

We express no opinion herein as to the accuracy, completeness or sufficiency of the Official Statement or other offering material relating to the Bonds. We expressly disclaim any duty to advise the owners of the Bonds with respect to the matters contained in the Official Statement and any other offering material relating to the Bonds.

Respectfully submitted,

APPENDIX F

BOOK-ENTRY ONLY SYSTEM
The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry only system has been obtained from sources that the Authority believes to be reliable, but the Authority takes no responsibility for the completeness or accuracy thereof. The following description of the procedures and record keeping with respect to beneficial ownership interests in the Series 2025A Bonds, payment of principal, premium, if any, accreted value and interest on the Series 2025A Bonds to DTC Participants or Beneficial Owners, confirmation and transfers of beneficial ownership interests in the Series 2025A Bonds and other related transactions by and between DTC, the DTC Participants and the Beneficial Owners is based solely on information provided by DTC.

1. The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), New York, NY, will act as securities depository for the Series 2025A Bonds (the “Securities”). The Securities will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered Security certificate will be issued for each maturity of the Securities in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity, and will be deposited with DTC. If, however, the aggregate principal amount of any issue exceeds $500 million, one certificate will be issued with respect to each $500 million of principal amount, and an additional certificate will be issued with respect to any remaining principal amount of such issue.

2. DTC, the world’s largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC’s participants (“Direct Participants”) deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly (“Indirect Participants”). DTC has an S&P Global Ratings highest rating: “AA+.” The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com. The information set forth on such website is not incorporated herein by reference.

3. Purchases of Securities under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Securities on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Security (“Beneficial Owner”) is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants’ records.

Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in Securities, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Securities is discontinued.
2183
F-2
4902-7503-5430v7/201004-0002

4. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Securities deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not affect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Securities; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Securities are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.

5. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Securities, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the Security documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Securities for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners.

In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them.

6. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Securities within a maturity are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such maturity to be redeemed.

7. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to Securities unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC’s MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the Authority as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts Securities are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).

8. Principal, redemption price and interest payments on the Securities will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit Direct Participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the Authority or the Paying Agent, on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC’s records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name,” and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, the Paying Agent, or the Authority, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal, redemption price and interest payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Authority or the Paying Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.

9. If applicable, a Beneficial Owner shall give notice to elect to have its Securities purchased or tendered, through its Participant, to tender/remarketing agent, and shall effect delivery of such Securities by causing the Direct Participant to transfer the Participant’s interest in the Securities, on DTC’s records, to tender/remarketing agent. The requirement for physical delivery of Securities in connection with an optional tender or a mandatory purchase will be deemed satisfied when the ownership rights in the Securities are transferred by Direct Participants on DTC’s records and followed by a book-entry credit of tendered Securities to tender/remarketing agent’s DTC account.

10. DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Securities at any time by giving reasonable notice to the Authority or the Paying Agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor depository is not obtained, Security certificates are required to be printed and delivered.

11. The Authority may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, Security certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC. 2184

Bids were received from five (5) of the prequalified general contractors. Upon review, City staff determined that Clark Construc$on Group (Clark) submi#ed the lowest responsive and responsible bid, with a total base bid of $135,151,000. Clark holds valid Class A and B Contractor’s Licenses in the State of California with no enforcement actions.

Clark Construc$on has an extensive track record of successfully delivering complex, ground-up public facili$es throughout California. Over the past 30 years, Clark has partnered with clients to deliver over $3 billion in civic and public safety projects. Notably, Clark recently completed the Long Beach Civic Center and is currently construc$ng the Garden Grove Civic Center—both highly relevant to the City’s project.

Assuming $mely execu$on of the construc$on contract, work is expected to commence in August 2025. The contract allows for 730 calendar days to complete the project. City staff will coordinate with the City's Communica$ons Division to ensure that the public receives regular construc$on updates throughout the duration of the project.

Background
Project Description
The Eastvale Civic Center project has been one of the City’s highest priority capital projects. This comprehensive development is designed to create a centralized civic campus that includes a new City Hall (Capital Improvement Project No. 95011), public library (CIP No. 95012), police sta$on (CIP No. 95014), and associated site improvements (CIP No. 95023). These Civic Center projects reflect the City’s long-term vision for improved public service delivery and community engagement. A rendering illustra$ng the project vision is included in A#achment 1, and project highlights are listed below:

City Hall: a three-story building that includes public counter spaces, an outdoor amphitheater, a council chamber that could be converted into a stage for performances, conference rooms, and office spaces. it is approximately 52,340 SF.
12363 Limonite Avenue | Suite 910 | Eastvale, CA 91752
951.361.0900 | eastvaleca.gov
2192
Library: a two-story building featuring book collec$on areas for all ages, group study rooms, activity spaces, offices, and an occupiable terrace. it is approximately 25,599 SF.

Police Sta$on: a two-story building with one level below grade secured parking. it is approximately 22, 021 SF.

Site Improvement: An approximately 2.8 acre Civic Park with an amphitheater and a central hardscape Civic Plaza and associated site work around the three buildings: City Hall, library, and police station.

Project Delivery
The City is using the design-bid-build project delivery method to design and construc$on the Eastvale Civic Center project. This approach requires the City to select an architectural firm to design the building, then select a general contractor to construct the building, through a compe$$ve process. State law requires that public works projects such as the design and construc$on of the Civic Center follow certain procedures to help achieve transparency and cost effec$veness. One requirement is that the City must accept the bid (proposal) of the general contractor that provides the lowest cost responsive, responsible bid to construct the building. A responsive bid is one that fully complies with all of the bid requirements, and a responsible bidder is one whose past performance, reputation, and financial capability is deemed acceptable.

To ensure the successful comple$on on of this large-scale project, it was determined that using a prequalifica$on process would be valuable for selec$ng the most qualified general contractor while s$ll awarding the project to the contractor that provides the most compe$$ve pricing. At its April 9, 2025 mee$ng, City Council adopted the list of prequalified contractors to bid on the Eastvale Civic Center project that is comprised of six (6) general contractors listed below, in alphabetical order:

1. Benards Bros, Inc.

2. Clark Construction Group

3. McCarthy Bulding Companies, Inc.

4. PCL Construction Services, Inc.

5. Swinerton Builders

6. Whiting-Turner Contracting Company
Gensler serves as the architect of record and has provided comprehensive architectural, engineering, and interior design services for the project. The construc$on documents were completed and delivered on March 27, 2025, and subsequently used to adver$se the project for construc$on bidding. The plans and specifica$ons for the project are on file at the City's Public Works Department and are available upon request.

A resolu$on has been prepared which, if adopted would, approve of the plans and specifica$ons for the Eastvale Civic Center project, and award the contract to Clark Construction Group – California LP.

Adop$ng a resolu$on for this project is recommended to create a record that the City’s legisla$ve body approved the plans and specifica$ons in advance of construc$on, for the purposes of design immunity under Government Code section 830.6.

Geotechnical Observation and Testing Services
Geocon West, Inc. (Geocon) will be providing geotechnical observa$on and tes$ng services for the project. The scope of services includes full-time observation and testing during site grading activities, founda$on (foo$ng) inspec$ons, responses to RFIs and issuance of pad cer$fica$on le#ers. Geocon 12363 Limonite Avenue | Suite 910 | Eastvale, CA 91752
951.361.0900 | eastvaleca.gov
2193
will also provide observa$on and tes$ng during backfill of both wet and dry u$li$es, as well as for offsite improvements. A final report will be prepared upon completion of the work.

Water and Sewer Capacity Charges to Jurupa Community Services District (JCSD) JCSD (Jurupa Community Services District) is a u$lity service provider for the City of Eastvale.

Services provided by JCSD include water, sewer, wastewater, parks and recrea$on, graffi$ abatement, and more. The Civic Center project requires new water and sewer connec$ons. As such, water and sewer capacity charges are due to JCSD. A statement outlining these charges has been provided by JCSD, based on the rates and fees detailed in their Customer Guide (see A#achment

5.2). These capacity charges are used by JCSD to fund the infrastructure necessary to deliver water and sewer services to new developments.

The Water Capacity Charge, also known as the water connec$on charge, is calculated based on the size of the water meter, which determines the flow capacity available to the customer. The Sewer Capacity Charge is based on Equivalent Dwelling Units (EDUs), a standardized unit used to es$mate the amount of sewage generated by various types of buildings or land uses.

Environmental
The environment impacts associated with the development of the Civic Center site were assessed in the Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) prepared for the Leal Master Plan, and the Addendum to that PEIR prepared for the Amendment to the Leal Master Plan which was adopted by the City Council on May 11, 2022.

Strategic Plan Action - Priority Level: 1 | Target #: 5 | Goal #: 1 The proposed contract contribute to the development of Downtown Eastvale, which can significantly a#ract businesses and retailers to establish their presence in the City and create a “Destination Eastvale” with high-quality and unique businesses.

Fiscal Impact
The total fiscal impact for the construc$on contract is $148,666,100. The project is inclusive of four CIP projects, City Hall (95011), Library (95012), Police Sta$on (95014), and Civic Center Site Improvement (95023). During the Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget process, budget was iden$fied for the Civic Center Project and broken down by the specific components of the project (buildings and site features). The budget was based on the original conserva$ve cost es$mate received by the city's cost es$mator consultant and as a result the total budget is higher than necessary and relies on more bond proceeds than will be necessary. Once the contracts and bonds are finalized, staff will adjust the budget to reflect the new cost es$mates and sources of funding. The proposed Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget is included for approval by City Council on the same agenda as this item and specific amounts for each component of the Civic Center Project are listed below.

City in any manner, nor to incur any obligation, debt or liability of any kind on behalf of or against City, whether by contract or otherwise.

Where there is a conflict between a general and a specific standard of performance or performance criteria, the specific standard or criteria shall prevail over the general.

City’s review of software, systems, networks, drawings, designs, specifications, reports, opinions, recommendations and incidental consulting work or materials furnished under this Agreement will not in any way relieve Contractor of responsibility for the professional and/or technical adequacy of its work. Neither City’s review, acceptance of, nor payment for, any of the services will be construed to operate as a waiver of any rights under this Agreement or of any cause of action arising out of the performance of this Agreement.

Contractor agrees to cooperate fully with City and to provide City with the opportunity to review any response to discovery requests provided by Contractor. However, this right to review any such response does not imply or mean the right by City to control, direct, or rewrite said response. Contractor shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law or for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.

SECTION 16. INDEMNIFICATION; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
(a) Indemnification for Professional Liability. Where the law establishes a professional standard of care for Contractor’s services, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless City and any and all of its officials, employees and agents (“Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all liability (including liability for claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses or costs of any kind, whether actual, alleged or threatened, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, court costs, interest, defense costs, and expert witness fees) to the extent caused by, in whole or in part, any negligent act, error or omission or willful misconduct of Contractor, or by any individual or entity for which Contractor is legally liable, including but not limited to officers, agents, employees or subcontractors of Contractor, in the performance of professional services under this Agreement.
(b) Indemnification for Other than Professional Liability. Other than in the performance of professional services and to the full extent permitted by law, Contractor shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless City, and any and all of its employees, officials and agents from and against any liability (including liability for claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses or costs of any kind, whether actual, alleged or threatened, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, court costs, interest, defense costs, and expert witness fees), where the same arise out of, are a consequence of, or are in any way attributable to, in whole or in part, the performance of this Agreement by Contractor, or by any individual or entity for which Contractor is legally liable, including but not limited to officers, agents, employees or subcontractors of Contractor. 2247

4923-1828-1806 v5
(c) Indemnification from Subcontractors. Contractor agrees to obtain executed indemnity agreements with provisions identical to those set forth in this section from each and every subcontractor or any other person or entity involved by, for, with or on behalf of Contractor in the performance of this Agreement naming the Indemnified Parties as additional indemnitees. In the event Contractor fails to obtain such indemnity obligations from others as required herein, Contractor agrees to be fully responsible according to the terms of this section. Failure of City to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on City and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder. This obligation to indemnify and defend City as set forth herein is binding on the successors, assigns or heirs of Contractor and shall survive the termination of this Agreement or this section.
(d) Indemnification from Design Professionals. Contractors meeting the definition of a design professional, per California Civil Code § 2782.8(c), shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless City, and any and all of its officials, employees and agents, from and against any and all claims, demands, costs, or liability that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Contractor.

To the extent Civil Code section 2782.8 is applicable to Contractor’s scope of services set forth herein, in no event shall the cost to defend charged to Contractor exceed Contractor’s proportionate share of fault. However, notwithstanding the previous sentence, in the event one or more defendants is unable to pay its share of defense costs due to bankruptcy or dissolution of the business, the design professional shall meet and confer with other parties regarding unpaid defense costs. (e) Intellectual Property Indemnification. City does not authorize the impermissible use of any patent or the reproduction of any copyrighted material by Contractor which exceeds “fair use” in the performance of this Agreement. Contractor is solely responsible for any such infringement. Contractor shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless City from any and all losses, damage, costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees suffered or incurred as a result of or in connection with any claims or actions based upon infringement or alleged infringement of any patent, copyright, or trade secret, and arising out of the use of the equipment or materials utilized to perform under this Agreement or specified by or procured by Contractor, or out of the processes or actions employed by, or on behalf of, Contractor in connection with the performance of this Agreement.
(f) City’s Negligence. The provisions of paragraphs (a) to (e) of this Section 16 do not apply to claims occurring as a result of City’s sole negligence. The provisions of this section shall not release City from liability arising from negligence or willful acts or omissions of City or any and all of its officials, employees and agents. (g) Insurance. Submission of insurance certificates or submission of other proof of compliance with the insurance requirements does not relieve Contractor from liability under this Section. The obligations of this Section shall apply whether or not such insurance policies shall have been determined to be applicable to any of such damages or claims for damages.
(h) Limitation of Liability.
2248
- 11 -
4923-1828-1806 v5
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, City's obligations under this Agreement shall be limited to the payment of the compensation provided for in Section 4 of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no event shall either party be liable, regardless of whether any claim is based on contract, tort or otherwise, for any special, consequential, indirect or incidental damages, lost profits or revenue, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, or the Services described in Exhibit A.

City shall not be responsible for any damage to persons or property as a result of the use, misuse or failure of any equipment used by Contractor, or by any of its employees, even though such equipment be furnished, rented or loaned to Contractor by City. The acceptance or use of such equipment by Contractor or any of its employees shall be construed to mean that Contractor accepts full responsibility for and shall exonerate, indemnify, defend and save harmless City from and against any and all claims for any damage or injury of any type, including attorneys' fees, arising from the use, misuse or failure of such equipment, whether such damage be to Contractor, its employees, City employees or third parties, or to property belonging to any of the above.

Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute a waiver or limitation of any right or remedy, whether in equity or at law, which City or Contractor may have under this Agreement or any applicable law. All rights and remedies of City or Contractor, whether under this Agreement or other applicable law, shall be cumulative.

SECTION 17. INSURANCE.

Contractor agrees to obtain and maintain in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement the insurance policies set forth in Exhibit “C” “Insurance” and made a part of this Agreement. All insurance policies shall be subject to approval by City as to form and content. These requirements are subject to amendment or waiver if so approved in writing by the City Manager. Contractor agrees to provide City with copies of required policies upon request.

SECTION 18. ASSIGNMENT.

The expertise and experience of Contractor are material considerations for this Agreement. City has an interest in the qualifications and capability of the persons and entities who will fulfill the duties and obligations imposed upon Contractor under this Agreement. In recognition of that interest, Contractor shall not assign or transfer this Agreement or any portion of this Agreement or the performance of any of Contractor’s duties or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the City.

Any attempted assignment shall be ineffective, null and void, and shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement entitling City to any and all remedies at law or in equity, including termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 20 “Termination of Agreement.” City acknowledges, however, that Contractor, in the performance of its duties pursuant to this Agreement, may utilize subcontractors. 2249

Background
The Mello-Roos Community Facili!es Act of 1982 (the "Mello-Roos Act") provides local jurisdic!ons with an alterna!ve method of financing public capital facili!es and services. Special tax districts formed pursuant to the Mello-Roos Act are referred to as Community Facilities Districts, or CFDs.

The City has received pe!!ons from landowners represen!ng more than 10 percent of the area of land proposed to be included within the community facili!es district and not proposed to be exempt from the special tax reques!ng that the City conduct proceedings to consider the approval of the formation of CFD No. 2025-01, to fund ongoing public and maintenance services within the CFD.

The CFD will fund the long-term maintenance/services in perpetuity by levying an annual special tax which will be collected on the property tax bill. The funds collected will be transferred to the City, which the City will use to perform the maintenance/services.

Environmental
Establishing a CFD is not a project subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act.

Strategic Plan Action - Priority Level: 3 | Target #: C | Goal #: H Ensure that City revenues align with expenditures.

Fiscal Impact
There is no current fiscal-year impact to the General Fund as a result of this ac!on. All CFD forma!on costs are borne by the applicant. Once the CFD is formed, ongoing maintenance and district administration will be funded by the special tax levy.

Prior City Council/Commission Action
City Council adopted a Resolu!on of Inten!on form Community Facili!es District No. 2025-01 (Limonite) on February 12, 2025. The Resolu!on of Inten!on set a public hearing, which was held on March 26, 2025.
