ORDINANCE NO. 111 Page 13 of 30 E. Supplemental Capital Outlay Fund Payments
On July 15, and January 15, of any fiscal year IEUA may require payment by each SCA from its Capital Capacity Reimbursement Account of Supplemental Capital Outlay Funds for the planning, design and construction of Regional Sewerage System capital improvement projects in the amount, if any, set forth for the SCA in the semiannual report due from IEUA on such date. Upon receiving such a demand from IEUA, each SCA shall pay the amount demanded to IEUA within 45 days of receipt of such demand. The amount of each SCA ’s proportionate share of the total amount of Supplemental Capital Outlay Funds demanded by IEUA from all SCAs shall be determined based on the percentage which the amount of Supplemental Capital Outlay Funds demanded by IEUA from all SCAs is to the total amount of the current Capital Capacity Reimbursement Account reserves of all SCAs set forth in the semiannual report upon which the demand is based. The amount demanded by IEUA from each SCA on any such date shall be an amount determined by applying the percentage thus obtained to the balance of the reserves, not including interest, in the SCA’s Capital Capacity Reimbursement Account set forth in the semiannual report upon which the demand is based. All amounts received by IEUA from the SCAs as Supplemental Capital Outlay Funds shall be deposited in or credited to the Regional Wastewater Capital Improvement Fund. All such amounts together with all interest earned thereon shall be available and utilized by IEUA solely for the purpose of financing the acquisition, improvement and expansion of the Regional Sewerage System.
F. Allocation of Supplemental Capital Outlay Fund Shortages If at the time of any demand by for Supplemental Capital Outlay Funds, pursuant to subpart E of this Section, there are not sufficient funds deposited or credited to the Capital Capacity Reimbursement Accounts of all SCAs to pay the full amount of the demand, each SCA which has a Demand Deficit shall pay the full balance then deposited or credited to its Capital Capacity Reimbursement Account plus an amount determined based on the percentage which the amount of its Demand Deficit is of the total Demand Deficit for all SCAs. The amount to be paid by each such SCA shall be determined by multiplying the difference between, the Supplemental Capital Outlay Fund demand and the total amount of the Capital Ca pacity Reimbursement Account balances of all SCAs by the percentage thus determined. 217
ORDINANCE NO. 111 Page 14 of 30 G. Audit Process

RECOMMENDATION:

COUNCIL GOALS:
· To invest in the City’s infrastructure (streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by maintaining and improving the City's existing infrastructure.
· To invest in the City’s infrastructure (streets, sewers, parks, etc.) by providing for the development of new infrastructure.
DISCUSSION:
On June 2nd, 2020, the City of Fontana Planning Commission approved Tentative Parcel Map No. 19712 (TPM No. 16-002) and Design Review No. 16-003 to consolidate twelve parcels into two parcels and a remainder parcel, totaling approximately 83 acres for the development of a new commerce building totaling approximately 1,171,788 square feet. The subdivider, I-15 Logistics, has complied with the Conditions of Approval and dedicated the required streets and easements as a part of the project. The Parcel Map has been reviewed by the City Engineer and found to be substantially correct.
As a part of this Parcel Map, portions of excess road right-of-way on Coyote Canyon Road and Lytle Creek Road are no longer needed and will be abandoned. Pursuant to Section 66434(g) of the California Government Code and Section 66499.20.2 of the Subdivision Map Act, the City Clerk must certify the abandonment of those certain portions of street right-of-way. The filing of this Parcel Map shall constitute an abandonment of those portions of the easements granted to the City of Fontana for street and public utility purposes. In accordance with the Subdivision Map Act, the Parcel Map is now being brought to the City Council for final approval.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This action will only approve the Parcel Map for recordation and authorize permits for the construction of the development, therefore there is no fiscal impact to City resources at this time City of Fontana Printed on 4/17/2024Page 1 of 2

BOUNDARY ESTABLISHMENT NARRATIVE:OUR INVESTIGATION INTO THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE EXISTING BOUNDARY OF THE PROPERTY SUBDIVIDED BY THIS MAP, AND THE ADJACENT LYTLE CREEK ROAD ALIGNMENT LED TO A MONTHS-LONG INVESTIGATION INTO THE HISTORY OF THE SURVEYING AND BOUNDARY LINES IN THE AREA, IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THE MOST LIKELY LOCATION OF THE LINE BETWEEN LOTS 19 AND 20 OF "MAP SHOWING SUBDIVSION OF LANDS BELONGING TO THE SEMI-TROPIC LAND AND WATERCOMPANY" SURVEYED IN AUGUST 1887, RECORDED IN MAP BOOK 6, PAGE 12, RECORDS OF SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY. THIS INVESTIGATION RESULTED IN RESEARCH INTO SOURCES NOT NORMALLY AVAILABLE TO OR ACCESSED BY PRIVATESURVEYORS. THESE INCLUDED INTERNAL LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND POWER FIELD NOTES, SOUTHERNCALIFORNIA EDISON INTERNAL MAPPING, AND SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY SURVEY RECORDS NOT AVAILABLE ON THE RESEARCH WEBSITE.DURING THE COURSE OF THIS INVESTIGATION, IT BECAME CLEAR THAT WHILE THE MAP DEPICTS THE SOUTHWESTERLY LINE OF THE SUBDIVISION TO BE COINCIDENT WITH THE SOUTHWESTERLY LINE OF THE RANCHO MUSCUPIABE, IN ACTUALITY THE PORTION OF THE SUBDIVISION LINE IN THE VICINITY OF THIS MAP WAS MONUMENTED ALONG A LINE ROUGHLY 35' NORTHEASTERLY OF THE RANCHO LINE. SINCE THE LINE AS MONUMENTED FALLS INSIDE THE RANCHO, A GAP WAS THEREBY INADVERTENTLY CREATED.ACCORDING TO PENCIL NOTES ON COUNTY SURVEYOR MAP C.S. 1350, IN 1932 EDGAR T. HAM, LS 730, RETRACED A PORTIONOF RIVERSIDE AVENUE AND THE SOUTHWESTERLY LOT LINES IN THIS AREA, FINDING VARIOUS MONUMENTS OF CURRENTLYUNKNOWN ORIGIN, BUT APPARENTLY ACCEPTED AS DEFINING THE LINES AND CORNERS OF THE SUBDIVISION AT THE TIME.DURING HIS CAREER MR. HAM PERFORMED SURVEYS IN BOTH PRIVATE PRACTICE AND AS SAN BERNARDINO COUNTYSURVEYOR. IT APPEARS HE PERFORMED THE WORK RELEVANT TO THIS MAP AFTER HIS TERM AS COUNTY SURVEYOR HAD ENDED. THE PENCIL NOTES ON C.S. 1350 INDICATE THAT HE FOUND MONUMENTS AT THE SOUTHERLY CORNERS OF LOTS33/35, 23/25, 22/23 AND 21/22. HE THEN EXTENDED THE LINE FORMED BY THESE MONUMENTS NORTHWESTERLY BEYOND A STONE MOUND FOUND AT THE COMMON CORNER OF LOTS 21 AND 22, USING RECORD DISTANCES PER THE MAP, AND SET AN AXLE AT THE CENTERLINE OF THE 60' RIGHT OF WAY BETWEEN LOTS 19 AND 20, AS WELL AS AT THE WESTERLY CORNER OF LOT 19. (ACCORDING TO THE PENCIL NOTATIONS, THERE APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN A MISCALCULATION OF EXACTLY ONE LINK IN THE RECORD DISTANCE ALONG THE SOUTHWESTERLY LINE OF LOT 19: 629.64' = 9.54 CHAINS, VS. 9.55 CHAINS PER THE MAP.)THE PENCIL NOTES ALSO INDICATE THAT MR. HAM SIMULTANEOUSLY TIED INTO MONUMENTS SET BY GOVERNMENTSURVEYOR LEWIS H. CUTTING IN 1896 TO MARK THE RANCHO CORNER AND THE CLOSING CORNER OF THE LINE BETWEENSECTIONS 7 AND 18 ON THE RANCHO LINE. THE RANCHO CORNER IS DESIGNATED "M-42" ON VARIOUS GOVERNMENTSURVEYS PERFORMED IN THE LATE 1800'S AS WELL AS ON M.B. 6/12. IN 1896 MR. CUTTING PERFORMED A SURVEY OF THE SAN BERNARDINO FOREST RESERVE UNDER CONTRACT WITH THE UNITED STATES GOVERNNMENT. DURING THE COURSEOF HIS SURVEY HE FOUND AND REPLACED THE ORIGINAL M-42 CORNER MARKER WITH A 4X4 CAST IRON MONUMENT FILLEDWITH CONCRETE AND PRE-STAMPED WITH APPROPRIATE MARKINGS. HE ALSO SIMILARLY FOUND AND REPLACED THE CLOSING CORNER MONUMENT OF THE LINE BETWEEN SECTIONS 7 AND 18 WITH THE RANCHO LINE, ORIGINALLY SET BY GOVERNMENT SURVEYOR JOHN GOLDSWORTHY IN 1874. THE NEW MONUMENTS WERE MARKED AND REFERRED TO AS SBFR-61 AND SBFR-62, RESPECTIVELY.THE PENCIL NOTES ON C.S. 1350 SHOW THESE MONUMENTS WESTERLY OF THE SUBDIVISION LINE AS DEFINED BY THE FOUND MONUMENTS PREVIOUSLY DESCRIBED, AND AS PROJECTED NORTHWESTERLY BY MR. HAM. HOWEVER IN 1929 MR. HAM HAD ALSO PERFORMED A SURVEY OF LOTS 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 11 AND 19 OF THE SUBDIVISION (R.S. 2/20) IN WHICH HE FOUNDAND ACCEPTED THE 4X4 IRON MONUMENTS AS REPRESENTING THE CORNER OF LOT 19 AND A POINT ALONG ITS SOUTHERLYLINE. COUNTY SURVEYOR MAPS CS-319 (1922) AND CS-406 (1925) ALSO SHOW THESE MONUMENTS AS REPRESENTING THESELOCATIONS. IT IS NOT CLEAR WHY MR. HAM DID NOT ACCEPT THE ORIGINAL GOVERNMENT MONUMENTS IN 1932 WHEN HE HAD ACCEPTED THEM THREE YEARS EARLIER, EXCEPT PERHAPS FOR THE SOMEWHAT DISTASTEFUL PROSPECT OF ANGLINGTHE SUBDIVISION LINE. BUT BY EXTENDING THE LINE PAST SURVEY MONUMENTS INSTEAD OF WORKING BETWEEN THEM,THE AXLES HE SET TO REPRESENT THE CORNER OF LOTS 19 AND 20, AS WELL AS THE WESTERLY CORNER OF LOT 19, WERENOT SET IN ACCORDANCE WITH STANDARD SURVEY PRACTICE.BECAUSE OF THE CONFUSION CREATED BY THE TWO SETS OF MONUMENTS, AND BECAUSE THE 4X4 IRON POSTS WERELATER DESTROYED AND THE LINE DEFINED BY THE AXLES PERPETUATED, PROBLEMS ARISE WITH INTERPRETING DEEDDESCRIPTIONS THAT WERE WRITTEN BASED ON THE ORIGINAL GOVERNMENT CORNERS, INCLUDING THE VESTING DEEDSFOR THE PROPERTIES EACH SIDE OF THE LINE BETWEEN LOTS 19 AND 20, AS WELL AS THE DESCRIPTIONS OF LYTLE CREEKROAD. THIS RESULTED IN AN APPARENT OVERLAP CREATED BY THE DEEDS FOR THE PROPERTIES EITHER SIDE OF THE LINE BETWEEN LOTS 19 AND 20 OF M.B. 6/12. FURTHER CONTRIBUTING TO THE CONFUSION WAS THE WORDING IN THESE DEEDS,WHICH REFER TO "THE EASTERLY LINE OF LOT 19." IT APPEARS THIS WAS VARIOUSLY INTERPRETED TO REFER TO THE NORTHWESTERLY RIGHT OF WAY LINE OF THE 60' RIGHT OF WAY, AND TO THE CENTERLINE OF THAT RIGHT OF WAY. FROM A CLOSE INSPECTION OF THE DISTANCES SHOWN ON M.B. 6/12, IT BECOMES CLEAR THAT THE DISTANCES THEREON ARE TO THE STREET CENTERLINES, NOT TO THE RIGHT OF WAY LINES, AS WOULD TODAY BE SHOWN. IN PERFORMING THIS SURVEY,WE HAVE ACCEPTED THE INTERPRETATION OF DEED CALLS TO THE LOT LINES TO BE TO THE CENTERLINE OF THE 60-FOOTRIGHT OF WAY, AND NOT TO ITS SIDELINES.IN FORMULATING MY FINAL OPINION AS TO THE LOCATION OF THE BOUNDARY LINE BETWEEN LOTS 19 AND 20, AND HENCETHE CENTERLINE OF THE 60' RIGHT OF WAY WHOSE CENTERLINE IS REPRESENTED BY THAT LINE, I HAVE PROPOSED THATTHE SUBDIVISION LINE AS PERPETUATED BY VARIOUS SURVEYS IN THE AREA IS NOT THE SAME LINE AS THE RANCHO LINE,AND THAT THERE IS A GAP BETWEEN THE TWO IN THIS AREA. THE EFFECT OF THIS DIFFERENCE IN LOCATION BETWEEN THESUBDIVISION AND RANCHO LINES ON OTHER PROPERTIES SOUTHEASTERLY ALONG THE RANCHO LINE FROM THE SUBJECTPROPERTY OF THIS MAP, AND ANY ATTEMPTED RESOLUTION OF THAT DIFFERENCE, IS BEYOND THE SCOPE OF THIS SURVEY.BECAUSE THE LINE BETWEEN MONUMENTS SBFR-61 AND -62 WAS ACCEPTED AS THE SOUTHWESTERLY LINE OF LOT 19BEFORE MR. HAM'S SURVEY WORK IN 1932 WITH NUMEROUS DEED DESCRIPTIONS HAVING BEEN WRITTEN BASED ON THISASSUMPTION (INCLUDING R5 & R7), I HAVE ACCEPTED THE RANCHO LINE AS DEFINING THE SOUTHWESTERLY LINE OF LOT 19.ALSO, SINCE MONUMENT SBFR-62 WAS NEVER PROVEN TO FALL ON THE RANCHO LINE AFTER ITS INITIAL PLACEMENT, ANDSINCE IT ACTUALLY APPEARS TO HAVE FALLEN SOUTHWESTERLY OF THE RANCHO LINE, I HAVE USED ITS POSITION ONLY ASA POINT OF REFERENCE TO DETERMINE THE BEGINNING POINTS OF DEED DESCRIPTIONS FOR THE PROPERTIES EACH SIDEOF THE LINE SEPARATING LOTS 19 AND 20, AS WELL AS FOR THOSE DEED DESCRIPTIONS CREATING THE LYTLE CREEK ROADRIGHT OF WAY. I ALSO USED ITS POSITION TO CALCULATE THE LOCATION OF THE COMMON QUARTER CORNER OF SECTIONS7 AND 18.BECAUSE THE SBFR-61 AND -62 MONUMENTS NO LONGER EXIST, FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS SURVEY I DETERMINED THEIRPREVIOUS LOCATIONS BY USE OF SURVEY FIELD NOTES PERFORMED IN 1934 BY THE LOS ANGELES BUREAU OF POWER AND LIGHT (NOW THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND POWER), ORIENTED TO THIS CURRENT SURVEY BY USE OF REFERENCES TO CORNERS COMMON TO BOTH.

COUNCIL GOALS:

SUBJECT:
Fontana Auto Center - Pylon Sign Refurbishment
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Authorize City Manager to complete upgrades to the Fontana Auto Center pylon signage in the amount of $127,710.
COUNCIL GOALS:
· To operate in a business-like manner by improving services through the effective use of technology.
DISCUSSION:
The Fontana Auto Center represents a significant economic engine for the City of Fontana, fostering a concentration of automotive businesses that contribute substantially to the local economy. Recent weather conditions and normal wear have caused significant damage to the existing pylon sign, hindering its functionality and aesthetic appeal.
Additionally, the current sign configuration only allows spacing for up to six auto dealerships. Due to dealership expansion at the Fontana Auto Center, the pylon signage now requires spacing for up to twelve. The limited space restricts the ability to effectively showcase each dealership and its offerings.
The City of Fontana has an existing agreement with Electra Media Inc (EMI) to maintain the pylon signage.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funding is available in the current fiscal year; upon approval, funds will be drawn from 60110500- 8030 for refurbishment expenditures. Under the current contract obligation with EMI refurbishment, the expenditures will total $127,710.00.
MOTION:
Request to approve staff recommendation.

EXHIBIT A
GOOD FAITH ESTIMATES
The good faith estimates set forth herein are provided with respect to the Series 2024 Bonds in accordance with Section 5852.1 of the California Government Code. Such good faith estimates have been provided to the Community Facilities District by the Municipa l Advisor, which the Municipal Advisor has prepared in consultation with the Underwriter.
Principal Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the Community Facilities District that, based on the Community Facilities District’s financing plan and current m arket conditions, its good faith estimate of the aggregate principal amount of the Series 2024 Bonds to be issued and sold is $ 7,665,000 (the “Estimated Principal Amount”), plus approximately $131,000 of net premium estimated to be generated based on current market conditions. Net premium is generated when, on a net aggregate basis for a single issuance of bonds, the price paid for such bonds is higher than the face value of such bonds. Such Estimated Principal Amount plus such estimated net premium amount would produce approximately $7,796,000 of gross proceeds.
True Interest Cost of the Series 2024 Bonds. The Municipal Advisor has informed the Community Facilities District that, a ssuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Series 2024 Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the true interest cost of the Series 2024 Bonds, which means the rate necessary to discount the amounts payable on the respective principal and interest payment dates to the purchase price received for the Series 2024 Bonds, is 4.94%.
Finance Charge of the Series 2024 Bonds. The Municipal Advisor has informed the Community Facilities District that, a ssuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Series 2024 Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevaili ng at the time of preparation of such estimate , its good faith estimate of the finance charge for the Series 2024 Bonds, which means the sum of all fees and charges paid to third parties (or costs associated with the Series 2024 Bonds), is $381,000.
Amount of Proceeds to be Received. The Municipal Advisor has informed the Community Facilities District that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Series 2024 Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of p reparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the amount of proceeds expected to be received by the Community Facilities District for sale of the Series 2024 Bonds, less the finance charge of the Series 2024 Bonds, as estimated above, and any reserves or capitalized interest paid or funded with proceeds of the Series 2024 Bonds, is $6,910,453.
Total Payment Amount . The Municipal Advisor has informed the Community Facilities District that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Series 2024 Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the total payment amount, which means the sum total of all payments the Community Facilities District will make to pay debt service on the Series 2024 Bonds, plus the finance charge for the Series 2024 Bonds, as described above, not paid with the proceeds of the Series 2024 Bonds, calculated to the final maturity of the Series 2024 Bonds, is $14,900,000, 320
A-2
4163-0675-3613.4
which excludes any reserves or capitalized interest funded or paid with proceeds of the Series 2024 Bonds (which may offset such total payment amount).
The foregoing estimates constitute good faith estimates only and are based on market conditions prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimates . The actual principal amount of the Series 2024 Bonds issued and sold, the true interest cost thereof, the finance charges thereof, the amount of proceeds received therefrom and total payment amount with respect thereto may differ from such good faith estimates due to (a) the actual date of the sale of the Series 2024 Bonds being different than the date assumed for purposes of such estimates , (b) the actual principal amount of Series 2024 Bonds issued and sold being different from the Estimated Principal Amount, (c) the actual amortization of the Series 2024 Bonds being different than the amortization assumed for purposes of such estimates, (d) the actual market interest rates at the time of sale of the Series 2024 Bonds being different than those estimated for purposes of such estimates, (e) other market conditions, or (f) alterations in the Community Facilities District’s financing plan, or a combination of such factors. The actual date of sale of the Series 2024 Bonds and the actual principal amount of Series 2024 Bonds issued and sold will be determined by the Community Facilities District based on the timing of the need for proceeds of the Series 2024 Bonds and other factors. The actual intere st rates borne by the Series 2024 Bonds will depend on market interest rates at the time of sale thereof. The actual amortization of the Series 2024 Bonds will also depend, in part, on market interest rates at the time of sale thereof. Market interest rate s are affected by economic and other factors beyond the control of the Community Facilities District. 321

PRELIMINARY OFFICIAL STATEMENT DATED _____, 2024
NEW ISSUE – BOOK-ENTRY-ONLY NO RATING
In the opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Bond Counsel to the District, based upon an analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions, and assuming, among other matters, the accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain covenants, interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Cod e of 1986 and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes. In the further opinion of Bond Counsel, interest on the Bonds is not a specific preference item for purposes of the federal individual alternative minimum tax. Bond Counsel observes that interest on the Bonds included in adjusted financial statement income of certain corporations is not excluded from the federal corporate alternative minimum tax. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any other tax consequences related to the ow nership or disposition of, or the amount, accrual or receipt of interest on, the Bonds.

The District
The District includes approximately 20.57 gross acres and is located in the northwestern portion of the City of Fontana (the “City”). The District is located along the east side of Citrus Avenue at Fontus Way, just north of Duncan Canyon Road. The District is being developed into a gated residential community known as “Monterado” by Lennar Homes of California, LLC, a California limited liability company (“Lennar Homes” or the “Developer”), and is expected to consist of a total of 1 98 detached condominium residential units in two product lines known as “Rivello at Monterado” (“Rivello”) and “Salerno at Monterado” (“Salerno”). Rivello is proposed for 89 single family detached alley load residential units and Salerno is proposed for 109 single family detached cluster residential units. The District is located in Tract Map No. 20224, recorded on March 24, 2022.
Lennar Homes acquired the property within the District in October 202 0 and home closings began in November 2022. As of February 15, 2024, 149 residential units had been completed and conveyed to individual homeowners, Lennar Homes owned six completed model units (none of which were in escrow), nine homes over 95% complete (all of which were in escrow), 21 residential units under construction and less than 95% complete (14 of which were in escrow), and 13 finished lots (none of which were in escrow). As of April 1, 2024, within 331
2 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
the District, 159 residential units had been completed and conveyed to individual homeowners, Lennar Homes owned six completed model units (one of which was in escrow), seven homes over 95% complete (all of which were in escrow), 13 residential units under construction and less than 95% complete ( all of which were in escrow), and 13 finished lots (none of which were in escrow). Sales contracts are subject to cancelation and, therefore, homes currently in escrow may not result in closed escrows with the prospective homebuyers. Within the District, building permits had been obtained for all 198 planned residential units within the District as of February 15, 2024 ; accordingly, all 198 parcels will be classified as Developed Property for the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy. See “PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT.” The District was formed to finance certain public facilities and services and costs with respect thereto related to the development within the District. The Act was enacted by the California legislature to provide an alternative method of financing certain public capital facilities an d services, especially in developing areas of the State of California (the “State”). Any local agency (as defined in the Act) may establish a community facilities district to provide for and finance the cost of eligible public facilities and services. The legislative body of the local agency which forms a community facilities district acts on behalf of such district as its legislative body. Subject to approval by two-thirds of the votes cast at an election and compliance with the other provisions of the Act, a legislative body of a local agency may issue bonds for a community facilities district and may levy and collect a special tax within such district to repay such indebtedness.
Pursuant to the Act, the City Council adopted the necessary resolutions stating its intent to establish the District, to authorize the levy of special taxes on taxable property within the boundaries of the District, and to have the District incur bonded indebtedness for the purpose of financing authorized facilities (the “Facilities”).
Following public hearings conducted pursuant to the provisions of the Act, the City Council adopted resolutions establishing the District and calling a special election to submit the levy of the special taxes and the incurring of bonded indebtedness to the qualified voters of the District. On September 13, 2022, at an election held pursuant to the Act, the then sole landowner who comprised the qualified voters of the District, Lennar Homes, authorized the District to incur bonded indebtedness in t he aggregate principal amount of not to exceed $8,000,000 to be secured by the levy of Special Taxes (as defined below) on taxable property within the District for the purpose of financing the Facilities, and approved the rate and method of apportionment of the special taxes for the District (the “Rate and Method”). See the caption “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS—Ballot Initiatives; Initiative 1935” for a discussion of an initiative that has qualified for the November 2024 Statewide general election which may affect the September 13, 2022 election held within the District.
The Rate and Method provides for a Facilities Special Tax (as defined in the Rate and Method) (the “Facilities Special Tax”) to be levied for the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities (as defined in the Rate and Method) and a Services Special Tax (as defined in the Rate and Method) (the “Services Special Tax”) to be levied for services described in the Rate and Method. As used in this Official Statement, the terms “Special Tax” or “Special Taxes” refer only to the Facilities Special Tax and does not include the Services Special Tax.
The Services Special Tax is not pledged under the Indenture nor is the Services Special Tax available to pay debt service on the Bonds. The Special Tax will be levied against certain property within the District pursuant to the Act, the Ordinance approving the levy of the Special Tax and the Indenture and in accordance with the Rate and Method. The lien of the Special Tax will be co-equal with the lien of the Services Special Tax.
Security and Sources of Payment for the Bonds
Under the Indenture, the City has pledged to repay the Bonds and any additional bonds issued under the Indenture (the “Additional Bonds”) from Net Special Tax Revenues and any other amounts held in the Special Tax Fund, the Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund. Proceeds of any Additional Bonds may only be applied to refund the Bonds or any Additional Bonds previously issued under the Indenture. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS — No Additional Bonds Except for Refunding Bonds.” The Indenture defines “Net Special Tax Revenues” to mean Special Tax Revenues less amounts required to pay Administrative Expenses. The term “Special Tax Revenues” is defined in the Indenture to mean the procee ds of the Special Tax received by or on behalf of the District, including any prepayments thereof, interest and 332
3 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
penalties thereon and proceeds of the redemption or sale of property sold as a result of foreclosure of the lien of the Special Tax, which will be limited to the amount of said lien and interest and penalties thereon. “Administrative Expenses” is defined in the Indenture to mean costs directly related to the administration of the District, including, but not limited to: the costs of computing the Special Tax and preparing the annual Special Tax collection schedules and the costs of collecting the Special Tax, the costs of remitting the Special Tax to the Trustee, the fees and costs of the Trustee (including its legal counsel) in the discharge of the duties required of it under the Indenture, the costs incurred by the District in complying with the disclosure provisions of any continuing disclosure undertaking and the Indenture, including those related to public inquiries regarding the Special Tax and disclosures to Owners, the costs of the District related to an appeal of the Special Tax, any amounts required to be rebated to the federal government in order for the District to comply with the tax covenants in the Indenture, an allocable share of the salaries of the City staff providing services on behalf of the District directly related to the foregoing and a proportionate amount of City general administrative overhead related thereto, and the costs of foreclosure of any delinquent Special Tax.
Net Special Tax Revenues are the primary security for the repayment of the Bonds and any Additional Bonds. In the event that Net Special Tax Revenues are not paid when due, the only sources of funds available to pay the debt service on the Bonds and any Additional Bonds will be the amounts held by the Trustee for such purpose in the Special Tax Fund, the Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS” herein.
NEITHER THE FAITH AND CREDIT NOR THE TAXING POWER OF THE DISTRICT (EXCEPT TO THE LIMITED EXTENT SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE), THE CITY OR THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA, OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF, IS PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS OR ADDITIONAL BONDS. EXCEPT FOR THE NET SPECIAL TAX
REVENUES, NO OTHER TAXES ARE PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS OR ADDITIONAL BONDS. THE BONDS AND ANY ADDITIONAL BONDS ARE NOT GENERAL OR
SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE CITY BUT ARE SPECIAL, LIMITED OBLIGATIONS OF THE
DISTRICT PAYABLE SOLELY FROM NET SPECIAL TAX REVENUES AND THE OTHER ASSETS PLEDGED THEREFOR UNDER THE INDENTURE AS MORE FULLY DESCRIBED HEREIN.
Description of the Bonds
The Bonds will be issued and delivered as fully registered bonds, registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York (“DTC”), and will be available to actual purchasers of the Bonds (the “Beneficial Owners”) in the denominations of $5,000 and any integral multiples thereof under the book -entry system maintained by DTC, only through brokers and dealers who are or act through DTC Participants as described herein. Beneficial Owners will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of the Bonds. In the event that the book-entry only system described herein is no longer used with respect to the Bonds, the Bonds wi ll be registered and transferred in accordance with the Indenture. See Appendix H — “INFORMATION CONCERNING THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY AND ITS BOOK -ENTRY SYSTEM” herein.
Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds is payable by the Trustee to DTC. Disbursement of such payments to DTC Participants is the responsibility of DTC and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners is the responsibility of DTC Participants. In the event that the book-entry only system is no longer used with respect to the Bonds, the Beneficial Owners will become the registered owners of the Bonds and will be paid principal and interest by the Trustee, all as described herein. See Appendix H — “INFORMATION CONCERNING THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY AND ITS BO OK-ENTRY SYSTEM” herein.

The Bonds are subject to optional redemption, mandatory redemption from Special Tax prepayments and mandatory sinking fund redemption as described herein. For a more complete description of the Bonds and the basic documentation pu rsuant to which they are being sold and delivered, see “THE BONDS” and Appendix F — “SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE INDENTURE” herein.
Appraisal Report
The District has obtained an appraisal of the Taxable Property (as defined herein) included in the District dated March 28, 2024, with a date of value as of February 15, 2024 (the “Appraisal”). The Appraisal was prepared for the District by Kitty Siino & Associates, Inc., Tustin, California (the “Appraiser”). Subject to the limitations set forth in the Appraisal, the Appraiser is of the opinion that, as of February 15, 2024 the minimum market value of the Taxable Property within the District was not less than $91,640,445 (the “Appraised Value”).
See “THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT — Property Value s” and “THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT — Value-to-Lien Ratios.” A copy of the Appraisal is included as Appendix B to this Official Statement. It is a condition precedent to the issuance of the Bonds that the Appraiser deliver a certificate stating that nothing has come to the attention of the Appraiser subsequent to the date of the Appraisal that would lead the Appraiser to believe that the value of the Taxable Property (as defined in the Rate and Method) in the District is less than the minimum market value of such property reported in the Appraisal. However, the Appraiser has not performed any procedures since the date of value to obtain knowledge of such events or occurrences nor is it obligated to do so in the future.
Price Point Study
In connection with the formation of the District, the City hired Empire Economics, Inc., Capistrano Beach, California (the “Price Point Consultant”) to prepare a price point study of the prices of the homes planned within the District, dated June 23, 2022 (the “Original Price Point Study”). The Special Tax rates set forth in the Rate and Method were based in part on the prices set forth in the Original Price Point Study. In connection with and in preparation for the issuance of the Bonds, the City hired the Price Poi nt Consultant to conduct an update to the Original Price Point Study within the District, dated March 4, 2024 (the “Updated Price Point Study”). Pursuant to Section C of the Rate and Method, prior to the issuance of Bonds, the City is required to amend the Assigned Facilities Special Tax (as defined in the Rate and Method) to the extent necessary to cause the total effective tax burden for residential property in the District to not exceed 1.95% of the minimum sales prices set forth in the Updated Price Po int Study. A copy of the Updated Price Point Study is included as Appendix C to this Official Statement. Based on the conclusions of the Updated Price Point Study, the Facilities Special Tax, the Services Special Tax and all direct and overlapping proper ty taxes, special assessments and other special taxes, the City does not expect to amend the Assigned Facilities Special Tax because effective tax rates are not projected to exceed 1.95% for any parcel. See “THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT — Direct and Overlapping Debt — Table 3” — Projected Total Effective Tax Rate for Individually Owned Residential Property.” See also “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS — Rate and Method of Apportionment.”

Selection of Bonds for Redemption. Whenever provision is made in the Indenture for the redemption of less than all of the Bonds and Additional Bonds, the Trustee will select the Bonds and Additional Bonds to be redeemed from all Bonds and Additional Bonds not previously called for redemption (a) with respect to any optional redemption of Bonds and Additional Bonds of a Series, among maturities of the Bonds and Additional Bonds of such Series as directed in a Written Request of the District (b) with respect to any mandatory redemption of Bonds or Additional Bonds from prepayments of the Special Tax, among maturities of all Series of Bonds and any Additional Bonds on a pro rata basis as nearly as practicable, and (c) with respect to any other redemption of Additional Bonds, among maturities as provided in the Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which such Additional Bonds are issued. The Trustee shall select for redemption the Bonds and any Additional Bonds of the same Series with the same maturity by lot in any manner that the Trustee, in its sole discretion, shall deem appropriate. For purposes of such selection, all Bonds and Additional Bonds shall be deemed to be comprised 339
10 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
of the greatest number of separate denominations that would result in each such denomination being an Authorized Denomination and each such separate denomination shall be treated as a separate Bond or Additional Bond that may be separately redeemed.
Notice of Redemption. If the Bonds are held in book-entry form, notice of redemption will be mailed to DTC and not to the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds under the DTC book-entry system. Neither the District nor the Trustee is responsible for giving notice of redemption to the Beneficial Owners . See Appendix H — “INFORMATION CONCERNING THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY AND ITS BOOK -ENTRY SYSTEM” herein.
The Indenture provides that the Trustee on behalf and at the expense of the District will give notice of any redemption by first class mail to the r espective Owners of any Bonds designated for redemption at their respective addresses appearing on the Registration Books and to the Original Purchaser, at least 30 but not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. Such notice of redemption will state the date of the notice, the redemption date, the redemption place and the Redemption Price and shall designate the CUSIP numbers, if any, the Bond numbers and the maturity or maturities of the Bonds to be redeemed (except in the event of redemption of all of the Bonds of such maturity or maturities in whole). The notice of redemption will require that the Bonds to be redeemed be surrendered at the Office of the Trustee for redemption at the Redemption Price, and give notice that further intere st on such Bonds will not accrue from and after the date fixed for redemption. Neither the failure to receive any notice so mailed, nor any defect in such notice, will affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of the Bonds or the cessation of accrual of interest thereon from and after the date fixed for redemption.
With respect to any notice of any optional redemption of Bonds, unless at the time such notice is given the Bonds to be redeemed shall be deemed to have been paid within the meaning of the Indenture, such notice will state that such redemption is conditional upon receipt by the Trustee, on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption, of moneys that, together with other available amounts held by the Trustee, are sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest on, the Bonds to be redeemed, and that if such moneys shall not have been so received said notice shall be of no force and effect and the District will not be required to redeem such Bonds. In the event a notice of redemption of Bonds contains such a condition and such moneys are not so received, the redemption of Bonds as described in the conditional notice of redemption will not be made and the Trustee will, within a reasonable time after the date on which such redemption was to occur, give notice to the Persons and in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such moneys were not so received and that there shall be no redemption of Bonds pursuant to such notice of redemption.
Effect of Notice of Redemption. If, on said date fixed for redemption, moneys for the Redemption Price of all the Bonds to be redeemed, together with interest to said date, is held by the Trustee so as to be available therefor on such date, and, if notice of redemption thereof will have been mailed as aforesaid and not canceled, then, from and after said date, interest on said Bonds will cease to accrue and become payable. All moneys held by or on behalf of the Trustee for the redemption of Bonds will be held in trust for the account of the Owners of the Bonds so to be redeemed without liability to such Owners for interest thereon. 340

SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS
General
The Bonds are special, limited obligations of the District, and, except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, they are payable solely from Net Special Tax Revenues. The Indenture defines “Net Special Tax Revenues” to mean Special Tax Revenues less amounts required to pay Administrative Expenses. The term “Special Tax Revenues” is defined in the Indenture to mean the proc eeds of the Special Tax received by or on behalf of the District, including any prepayments thereof, interest and penalties thereon and proceeds of the redemption or sale of property sold as a result of foreclosure of the lien of the Special Tax (which shall be limited to the amount of said lien and interest and penalties thereon). The Indenture defines the term “Special Tax” as the special tax described and defined in the Rate and Method as the “ Facilities Special Tax” approved by the qualified electors of the District. “Administrative Expenses” is defined in the Indenture to mean costs directly 341
12 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
related to the administration of the District, including, but not limited to: the costs of computing the Special Tax and preparing the annual Special Tax collection schedules and the costs of collecting the Special Tax, the costs of remitting the Special Tax to the Trustee, the fees and costs of the Trustee (including its legal counsel) in the discharge of the duties required of it under the Indenture, the costs i ncurred by the District in complying with the disclosure provisions of any continuing disclosure undertaking and the Indenture, including those related to public inquiries regarding the Special Tax and disclosures to Owners, the costs of the District related to an appeal of the Special Tax, any amounts required to be rebated to the federal government in order for the District to comply with the tax covenants in the Indenture, an allocable share of the salaries of the City staff providing services on behalf of the District directly related to the foregoing and a proportionate amount of City general administrative overhead related thereto, and the costs of foreclosure of any delinquent Special Tax.
Under the Rate and Method, parcels of Taxable Property, exclus ive of Taxable Public Property and Taxable Property Owner Association Property, are classified as Developed Property if a building permit has been obtained for such parcel by May 1 of the fiscal year preceding the Special Tax levy. For the projected Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy, based on the development status within the District as of February 15, 2024, all 198 parcels of Taxable Property within the District will be classified as Developed Property. See “PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT.” Under no circumstances may the amount of Special Tax levied by the District in any year exceed the maximum rates approved by the qualified electors within the District, as set forth in the Rate and Method. A copy of the Rate and Method is attached to this Official Statement as Appendix A.
In addition to the Net Special Tax Revenues, any other amounts held by the Trustee in the Special Tax Fund, the Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund are pledged pursuant to the Indenture to secure the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds and any Additional Bonds in accordance with their respective terms, the Indenture and the Act. However, those amounts are pledged subject to the provisions of the Indenture permitting the application thereof for the purposes set forth in the Indenture. Amounts on deposit in the Improvement Fund, the Costs of Issuance Fund, the Redemption Fund, the Administrative Expense Fund and the Rebate Fund are not pledged to the payment of any of the Bonds or any Additional Bonds.
NEITHER THE FAITH AND CREDIT NOR THE TAXING POWER OF THE DISTRICT (EXCEPT TO THE LIMITED EXTENT SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE), THE CITY OR THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA, OR ANY POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF, IS PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS OR ADDI TIONAL BONDS. EXCEPT FOR THE NET SPECIAL TAX
REVENUES, NO OTHER TAXES ARE PLEDGED TO THE PAYMENT OF THE BONDS OR ADDITIONAL BONDS. THE BONDS AND ANY ADDITIONAL BONDS ARE NOT GENERAL OR
SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS OF THE CITY BUT ARE SPECIAL, LIMITED OBLIGATIONS OF THE
DISTRICT PAYABLE SOLELY FROM NET SPECIAL TAX REVENUES AND THE OTHER ASSETS PLEDGED THEREFOR UNDER THE INDENTURE AS MORE FULLY DESCRIBED HEREIN.
Special Tax
Pursuant to the Act, the City Council adopted a resolution on July 26, 2022 stating its inten tion to establish the District and to levy a special tax within the District. In accordance with the provisions of the Act, the City Council established the District on September 13, 2022 for the purpose of, among other things, financing certain public in frastructure improvements necessary for the proposed development within the District. At a special election held on September 13, 2022, the then sole landowner of the property within the District, Lennar Homes, authorized the District to incur indebtedness in an amount not to exceed $8,000,000 and approved the Rate and Method. The Rate and Method is set forth in Appendix A hereto. See the caption “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS—Ballot Initiatives; Initiative 1935” for a discussion of an initiative that has qualifi ed for the November 2024 Statewide general election which may affect the September 13, 2022 election held within the District.

Pursuant to Section C of the Rate and Method, prior to the issuance of the Bonds, if necessary, the City is required to amend the Assigned Facilities Special Tax (as defined in the Rate and Method) to the extent necessary to cause the Total Tax Burden (as defined in the Rate and Method) for one or more land use classes of residential property in the District to not exceed 1.95% of t he Minimum Sale Prices (as defined in the Rate and Method) set forth in the Updated Price Point Study. A copy of the Updated Price Point Study is included as Appendix C to this Official Statement. Based on the conclusions of the Updated Price Point Study, the Facilities Special Tax, the Services Special Tax and all direct and overlapping property taxes, special assessments and other special taxes, the City does not expect to amend the Assigned Facilities Special Tax. See “ — Rate and Method of Apportionme nt” below. See also “THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT — Direct and Overlapping Debt — Table 3 — Projected Total Effective Tax Rate for Individually Owned Residential Property.”
Pursuant to the Indenture, the District has covenanted that it will fix and levy the Special Tax within the District in each Fiscal Year in accordance with the Rate and Method in an amount sufficient (subject to the limitations contained in the Rate and Method as to the maximum Special Tax that may be levied on each parcel) to yield Special Tax Revenues in the amount required for (i) the payment of principal of and interest on any Outstanding Bonds and any Additional Bonds becoming due and payable during the Corresponding Bond Year, (ii) any necessary replenishment of the Reserve Fu nd, and (iii) the payment of Administrative Expenses estimated to be paid from such Special Tax Revenues, taking into account the balances in the funds and accounts established under the Indenture. See Appendix F — “SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE INDENTURE — Certain Covenants Under the Indenture.” Notwithstanding this covenant, the amount of Special Tax actually collected each year may be less than the amount described for a variety of different reasons.
See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Levy of the Special Tax.”
The Bonds have been structured so that, beginning in Fiscal Year 2024-25, the Assigned Facilities Special Tax rates set forth in the Rate and Method that may be levied within the District, based on the expected buildout of the District, are at le ast 110% of debt service on the Bonds in each Bond Year net of estimated Administrative Expenses of $40,000 escalating 2% each fiscal year beginning July 1, 2025. The Special Tax levied in any fiscal year may not exceed the maximum rates authorized pursua nt to the Rate and Method. See Appendix A ⎯ “RATE AND METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAX.” There is no assurance that the Special Tax proceeds will, in all circumstances, be adequate to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds when due. Pursuant to the Act, the Special Tax levied in any Fiscal Year against any parcel of residential property in the District may not be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owners of any other parcels within the District by more than 10% above the amount that would have been levied in that Fiscal Year had there never been any such delinquencies or defaults. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS ⎯ Levy of the Special Tax” and “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS ⎯ Exempt Properties.” Rate and Method of Apportionment
General. The Rate and Method is to be applied by the District each year for the purpose of determining the amount of the Special Tax to be levied against each Assessor’s Parcel of Taxable Property within the District.
For purposes of the discussion of the Rate and Method only, terms with initial capital letters that are not otherwise defined in this Official Statement shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Rate and Method, a copy of which appears in Appendix A.
Under the terms of the Inde nture, prior to August 1 of each year, the District will ascertain from the County of San Bernardino Assessor the relevant parcels on which the Special Tax are to be levied, taking into account any parcel splits during the preceding and then current year. The District will levy the Special Tax by August 10 of each Fiscal Year that the Bonds are Outstanding, or otherwise such that the computation of the levy is complete before the final date on which the auditor (the “Auditor”) of the County of San Bernardino (the “County”) will accept the transmission of the Special Tax amounts for the parcels within the District for inclusion on the next real property tax roll. Upon the completion of the computation of the amounts of the levy, the District 343
14 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
will prepare, o r cause to be prepared, and shall transmit to the Auditor, such data as the Auditor requires to include the levy of the Special Tax on the next real property tax roll.
The Special Tax levied in any Fiscal Year may not exceed the maximum rates authorized pu rsuant to the Rate and Method. See Appendix A — “RATE AND METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAX” hereto. Although the Bonds have been structured so that, beginning in Fiscal Year 2024-25, the Assigned Facilities Special Tax rates set forth in the Rate and Method that may be levied based on expected build out of the District are at least 110% of debt service on the Bonds net of estimated Administrative Expenses of $40,000 escalating 2% each fiscal year beginning July 1, 2025, there is no assurance that the proceeds of the Special Tax will, in all circumstances, be adequate to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds when due. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Levy of the Special Tax” herein.
Rate and Method of Appo rtionment of Special Tax . The District is legally authorized and has covenanted to cause the levy of the Special Taxes in an amount determined according to a methodology, i.e., the Rate and Method, which the City Council and the qualified electors within the District have approved. The Rate and Method apportions the total amount of the Facilities Special Tax and Services Special Tax to be collected among the Taxable Property in the District as more particularly described below. The Facilities Special Tax is referred to herein as the “Special Tax” or the “Special Taxes.” The Services Special Tax is not pledged to the repayment of the Bonds and is not available to pay debt service on the Bonds.
The following is a synopsis of the provisions of the Rate and Method, which should be read in conjunction with the complete text of the Rate and Method which is attached as Appendix A — “RATE AND METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAX.” The meaning of the defined terms used in this section are as set forth in Appendix A. This section provides only a summary of the Rate and Method, and is qualified by more complete and detailed information contained in the Rate and Method attached as Appendix A. As used in the Rate and Method, “Bonds” means the Bonds and any Additional Bonds. “CFD Administrator” means an official of the City, or designee thereof, responsible for determining the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities and the Special Tax Requirement for Services, providing for the levy and collection of the Special Taxes, and performing other duties as set forth in the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax.
“Developed Property” means, for each Fiscal Year, (i) with respect to the Facilities Special Tax, all Taxable Property, exclusive of Taxable Public Property and Taxable Property Owner Association Property, for which a building permit for new construction, other than the construction of a garage, parking lot, or parking structure, was issued after January 1, 2022 and on or before May 1 of the Fiscal Year preceding the Fiscal Year for which the Facilities Special Taxes are being levied, and (ii) with respect to the Services Special Tax, all Taxable Property, exclusive of Taxable Public Property and Taxable Property Owner Association Property, (a) for which the Final Residential Subdivision was recorded prior to the Fiscal Year for which the Services Special Taxes are being levied, or (b) for which a building permit has been issued with respect to Non-Residential Property on or before May 1 of the Fiscal Year preceding the Fiscal Year for which the Services Special Taxes are being levied.
“Facilities Special Tax ” means the special tax authorized to be levied in each Fiscal Year on each Assessor’s Parcel of Taxable Property within the District to fund the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities as set forth in the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax. “Lower Income Households Welfare Exemption Property” means, for each Fiscal Year, an Assessor’s Parcel within the boundaries of the District that is entitled to a welfare exemption under subdivision (g) of Section 214 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code (or any successor statute), as indicated in the County’s assessment roll finalized as of the last preceding January 1. 344
15 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
“Residential Floor Area” means a ll of the square footage of living area within the perimeter of a residential structure, not including any carport, walkway, garage, overhang, patio, enclosed patio, or similar area.
The determination of Residential Floor Area for an Assessor’s Parcel shall be as set forth in the building permit(s) issued for such Assessor’s Parcel and/or as set forth in the appropriate records kept by the Building and Safety Department of the City, or other applicable City department, as determined by the CFD Administrator. “Residential Property” means all Assessor’s Parcels of Developed Property for which a building permit(s) has been issued by the City permitting the construction thereon of one or more residential dwelling units.
“Services Special Tax ” means the special tax authorized to be levied in each Fiscal Year on each Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property within the District to fund the Special Tax Requirement for Services as set forth in the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax. The Services Special Tax is not pledged to the repayment of the Bonds and is not available to pay debt service on the Bonds. “Special Tax Requirement for Facilities” means, for any Fiscal Year, that amount required, after taking into account available amounts held in the funds and accounts under the Indenture, for the following items:
(i) debt service on all Outstanding Bonds due in the calendar year commencing in such Fiscal Year; (ii) periodic costs with respect to the Bonds, including but not limited to, costs of credit enh ancement and federal rebate payments due in the calendar year commencing in such Fiscal Year; (iii) pay all or a portion of Administrative Expenses; (iv) any amounts required to establish or replenish any reserve funds for all Outstanding Bonds; (v) without duplicating any amounts described in clause (iv) above, reasonably anticipated Facilities Special Tax delinquencies based on the delinquency rate for the Facilities Special Tax in the previous Fiscal Year, as said levy for delinquencies shall be limited by the Act; and (vi) pay directly for the acquisition or construction of Authorized Facilities, provided that the inclusion of such amount does not cause an increase in the Facilities Special Tax levy on Undeveloped Property.
“Taxable Property” means all of the Assessor’s Parcels within the boundaries of the District which are not exempt from the Special Tax pursuant to law or described below under the subheading “ — Exempt Property.” Each Fiscal Year, all Taxable Property within the District will be classified as Developed Property, Undeveloped Property, Taxable Property Owner Association Property, or Taxable Public Property, and will be subject to Special Taxes in accordance with the Rate and Method described below under the subheading “Maximum Special Tax, Assigned Special Tax and Backup Special Tax.” “Taxable Property Owner Association Property ” means all Assessor’s Parcels of Property Owner Association Property that are not exempt from the Special Tax described below under the subheading “— Exempt Proper ty,” and further described in Section E of the Rate and Method attached hereto as Appendix A.
“Taxable Public Property” means all Assessor’s Parcels of Public Property that are not exempt from the Special Tax described below under the subheading “— Exempt Property,” and further described in Section E of the Rate and Method attached hereto as Appendix A.
“Undeveloped Property” means, for each Fiscal Year, all Taxable Property not classified as Developed Property, Taxable Public Property or Taxable Property Owner Association Property.
Exempt Property. No Facilities Special Tax will be levied on up to 9.0 Acres of Public Property and/or Property Owner Association Property in the District. Tax -exempt status will be assigned by the CFD Administrator in chronological order in which property in the District becomes Public Property or Property Owner Association Property. However, should an Assessor’s Parcel no longer be classified as Public Property or Property Owner Association Property, it will, from that point forward, be subject to the Facilities Special Tax. 345
16 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
Notwithstanding the above, an Assessor’s Parcel in the District that is transferred to a public agency or property owner’s association prior to the issuance of the first series of bonds that causes the Acreage of Public Property and Property Owner Association Property to exceed the 9.0 Acreage limit that can be designated by the CFD Administrator under the Rate and Method will also be exempted from the Special Tax.
Public Property or Property Owner Association Property that is not exempt from the Facilities Special Tax as described above will be subject to the levy of the Facilities Special Tax and will be taxed Proportionately as part of the fourth step described under the heading “ Method of Apportionment of Special Tax ” below. The District will not levy a Services Special Tax on Undeveloped Property, Taxable Public Prope rty, Taxable Property Owner Association Property or Public Property and Property Owner Association Property described below under the subheading “— Exempt Property,” and further described in Section E of the Rate and Method attached hereto as Appendix A.
Under the Rate and Method, no Special Tax shall be levied on Lower Income Household Welfare Exemption Property; provided that if, in any Fiscal Year, applicable law does not require that an Assessor’s Parcel that is Lower Income Households Welfare Exemption Property be exempt from the Facilities Special Tax, then the Facilities Special Tax shall be levied on such Assessor’s Parcel in accordance with the Rate and Method as if such Assessor’s Parcel were not classified as Lower Income Households Welfare Exempt ion Property.
Senate Bill 1473, the “Local Government Omnibus Act of 2020,” amended Government Code Section 53340(c) to provide that in a community facilities district in which the levy of a special tax is authorized by an ordinance adopted on or after Ja nuary 1, 2020, a property receiving a welfare exemption under subdivision (g) of Section 214 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code shall be exempt from the special tax unless debt is outstanding and the property was subject to the special tax prior t o receiving the exemption, in which case the property shall remain subject to the special tax and the special tax shall be enforceable against the property.
Therefore, pursuant to the Rate and Method and California law, and given that no property is subje ct to the welfare exemption as of the date hereof, the Special Tax will be applicable to Lower Income Household Welfare Exemption Property so long as the Bonds are outstanding.
Maximum Special Tax, Assigned Special Tax and Backup Special Tax. The Maximum Special Tax, Assigned Special Tax and Backup Special Tax for the Facilities Special Tax provided for in the Rate and Method are as follows:
Facilities Special Tax.
Developed Property. The Maximum Facilities Special Tax for each Assessor’s Parcel classifie d as Developed Property will be the greater of (i) the amount derived by application of the Assigned Facilities Special Tax or (ii) the amount derived by application of the Backup Facilities Special Tax.
Assigned Facilities Special Tax. Residential Property will be assigned to Land Use Classes 1 through 5, as identified in Table 1 in Section C of the Rate and Method based on the Residential Floor Area for each residential dwelling unit. Non-Residential Property will be assigned to Land Use Class 6. The Assigned Facilities Special Tax applicable to an Assessor’s Parcel classified as Residential Property ranges from $3,258 per taxable unit with a Residential Floor Area of 2,250 square feet or greater to $2,907 per taxable unit with a Residential Floor Area of less than 1,650 square feet. The Assigned Facilities Special Tax applicable to an Assessor’s Parcel classified as Non-Residential Property is $51,640 per acre. Based on the Updated Price Point Study provided by the Price Point Consultant, the City does not expect the Assigned Facilities Special Tax rates set forth in Section C of the Rate and Method to be reduced, as the total effective tax burden applicable to each land use class of residential property to be constructed within the District will not exceed 1.95% of the minimum sale prices set forth in the Updated Price Point Study. A copy of the Updated Price Point Study is included as Appendix C to this Official Statement.
Backup Facilities Special Tax. The Backup Facilities Special Tax for an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property upon adoption of the Rate and Method equaled the lesser of (a) $60,750 per Acre, or (b) in connection 346
17 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
with any reduction in the Assigned Facilities Special Tax as set forth in Section C.1 of the Rate and Method, the reduced amount per Acre calculated pursuant to Section C.1.a.(3) of the Rate and Method. Pursuant to the Updated Price Point Study provided by the Price Point Consultant, no reduction of th e Assigned Facilities Special Tax will be required under the Rate and Method; accordingly, no reduction of the Backup Facilities Special Tax will be required.
The Assigned Facilities Special Tax and Backup Facilities Special Tax are not subject to escalation.
Multiple Land Use Classes. In some instances an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property may contain both Developed and Undeveloped Property. In such cases, the Acreage of the Assessor’s Parcel will be allocated between Developed Property and Undeveloped Property based on the portion of the Assessor’s Parcel for which building permits had been issued prior to May 1 of the prior Fiscal Year and the portion of the Assessor’s Parcel for which building permits had not been issued prior to May 1 of the prior Fiscal Year. Furthermore, Developed Property may contain more than one Land Use Class. In such cases, the Acreage that is considered Developed Property will be allocated between Residential Property and Non -Residential Property based on the amount of Acreage designated for each land use as determined by reference to the site plan approved for such Assessor’s Parcel. The Maximum Facilities Special Tax that can be levied on such Assessor’s Parcel will be the sum of the Maximum Facilities Special Tax that can be levied on each type of property located on that Assessor’s Parcel.
The CFD Administrator’s allocation to each type of property will be final.
Undeveloped Property, Taxable Public Property and Taxable Property Owner Association Property .
The Maxim um Facilities Special Tax for each Assessor’s Parcel of Undeveloped Property, Taxable Public Property and Taxable Property Owner Association Property is $ 60,750 per Acre. The Maximum Facilities Special Tax rates for Undeveloped Property, Taxable Public Property and Taxable Property Owner Association Property are not subject to escalation.
Method of Apportionment of Special Tax . Commencing with Fiscal Year 202 2-23, and for each following Fiscal Year, the CFD Administrator will determine the Special Tax Req uirement for Facilities and, subject to the Maximum Facilities Special Tax rates described above, will provide for the levy the Facilities Special Tax as follows:
First: The Facilities Special Tax shall be levied on each Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property in an amount equal to 100% of the applicable Assigned Facilities Special Tax; Second: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after the first step has been completed, the Facilities Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each Assessor’s Parcel of Undeveloped Property at up to 100% of the Maximum Facilities Special Tax for Undeveloped Property;
Third: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after the first two steps have been completed, then the levy of the Facilities Special Tax on each Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property for which the Maximum Facilities Special Tax is determined through the application of the Backup Facilities Special Tax shall be increased in equal percentages from the Assigned Facilities Special Tax up to the Maximum Facilities Special Tax for each such Assessor’s Parcel;
Fourth: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after the first three steps have been completed, then the Facilities Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each Assessor’s Parcel of Taxable Public Property and Taxable Property Owner Association Property at up to 100% of the Maximum Facilities Special Tax for Taxable Public Property and Taxable Property Owner Association Property, as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities. 347
18 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
Notwithstanding the above, the CFD Administrator will, in any Fiscal Year, calculate a levy Proportionately less than 100% of the Assigned Facilities Special Tax in step one above, when (i) the CFD Administrator is no longer required to provide for the levy of the Facilities Special Tax pursuant to steps two through four above in order to meet the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities; and (ii) all authorized Bonds for the District have already been issued or the City Council has covenanted that it will not issue any additional District bonds (except refunding bonds) to be supported by the Facilities Special Tax. The Dis trict has covenanted in the Indenture not to issue any Additional Bonds except to refund the Bonds or outstanding Additional Bonds. See “— No Additional Bonds Except For Refunding Bonds” below.
Further, notwithstanding the above, under no circumstances sh all the Facilities Special Tax levied in any Fiscal Year against any Assessor’s Parcel of Residential Property for which an occupancy permit for private residential use has been issued (in accordance with Section 53321(d)(3) of the California Government Code), be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owner of any other Assessor’s Parcel within the District by more than 10% above the amount that would have been levied in that Fiscal Year had there never been any such delinquencies or defaults. To the extent that the levy of the Facilities Special Tax on Residential Property is limited by the provision in the previous sentence, the levy of the Facilities Special Tax on each Assessor’s Parcel of Non-Residential Property shall continue in equal percentages up to 100% of the applicable Maximum Facilities Special Tax.
Prepayment of Special Taxes . The Facilities Special Tax obligation for an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property or Undeveloped Property for which a building permit has been i ssued, may be prepaid in full, or in part, and only if there are no delinquent Special Taxes with respect to such Assessor’s Parcel at the time of prepayment, provided that the terms set forth under Section H of the Rate and Method are satisfied. The Prepayment Amount is calculated based on the Bond Redemption Amount plus Redemption Premium plus the Future Facilities Amount plus the Defeasance Amount plus the Administrative Fees and Expenses, less a credit for the resulting reduction in the Reserve Require ment for the Bonds (if any) and less an allocable share of capitalized interest (if any), all as specified in Appendix A — “RATE AND METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAX — Section H.”
Mandatory redemption of Bonds from Special Tax prepayments may result in the reduction in the otherwise expected yield on such Bonds if the Bonds were purchased at a price greater than par. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Potential Early Redemption of Bonds from Special Tax Prepayments.” Term of Special Taxes. Pursuant to the Rate and Method, the Facilities Special Tax levy is authorized to be levied for a period not to exceed fifty years commencing with Fiscal Year 2022-23.
Estimated Debt Service Coverage . Based on the expected buildout of the District, Assigned Special Tax rates set forth in the Rate and Method are at least 110% of debt service on the Bonds in each Bond Year plus estimated Administrative Expenses of $40,000 escalating 2% each fiscal year beginning July 1, 2025. The District may levy up to the Maximum Special Tax rates on Taxable Property within the District. See “— Rate and Method of Apportionment — Maximum Special Tax, Assigned Special Tax and Backup Special Tax ” and “— Rate and Method of Apportionment — Exempt Property.” Pursuant to the Rate and Method, the status of Developed Property is based on building permits issued as of May 1 of the Fiscal Year preceding the Fiscal Year for which the Special Tax is levied. As of February 15, 2024 , building permits had been issued for all 198 anticipated residential parcels within the District; accordingly, all 198 parcels of Taxable Property within the District will be classified as Developed Property for the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy. See “PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT.” Collection and Application of the Special Tax
The Special Tax is levied and collected by the Treasurer-Tax Collector of the County in the same manner and at the same time as ad valorem property taxes; provided, however, that the District may directly bill the 348
19 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
Special Tax, may collect the Special Tax a t a different time or in a different manner if necessary to meet its financial obligations, and may covenant to foreclose and may actually foreclose on delinquent Assessor’s Parcels as permitted by the Act.
The District has made certain covenants in the In denture for the purpose of ensuring that the current maximum rates and method of collection of the Special Tax are not altered in a manner that would impair the District’s ability to collect a sufficient amount of the Special Tax to pay debt service on the Bonds and Administrative Expenses when due. First, the District has covenanted that, to the extent it is legally permitted to do so, it will not initiate proceedings under the Act to modify the Rate and Method if such modification would adversely affect the security for the Bonds and any Additional Bonds and if an initiative is adopted that purports to modify the Rate and Method in a manner that would adversely affect the security for the Bonds and any Additional Bonds, the District shall, to the extent p ermitted by law, commence and pursue reasonable legal actions to prevent the modification of the Rate and Method in a manner that would adversely affect the security for the Bonds and any Additional Bonds. Second, the District has covenanted not to authorize owners of taxable parcels within the District to satisfy Special Tax obligations by the tender of Bonds and any Additional Bonds unless the District shall have first obtained a report of an Independent Consultant certifying that doing so would not result in the District having insufficient Special Tax Revenues to pay the principal of and interest on all Outstanding Bonds and any Additional Bonds when due.
Although the Special Tax constitutes a lien on Taxable Property within the District, it does not constitute a personal indebtedness of the owners of such property within the District. Moreover, other overlapping general obligation debt already exists on the property located within the District and other future special tax and assessment liens and overl apping general obligation debt could come into existence in the future in certain situations without the consent or knowledge of the City or the landowners therein. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Parity Taxes and Special Assessments” herein. There is no assurance that property owners will be financially able to pay the annual Special Tax or that they will pay such taxes even if financially able to do so, all as more fully described in the section of this Official Statement entitled “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS.” Under the terms of the Indenture, the Trustee shall establish and maintain a separate fund designated the “Special Tax Fund.” As soon as practicable after the receipt by the District of any Special Tax Revenues, but in any event no later than the date ten B usiness Days prior to the Interest Payment Date after such receipt, the District shall transfer such Special Tax Revenues to the Trustee for deposit in the Special Tax Fund; provided, however, that any portion of any such Special Tax Revenues that represen ts Special Tax prepayments that are to be applied to the payment of the redemption price of Bonds and any Additional Bonds in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture shall be identified to the Trustee as such by the District and shall be deposited in the Redemption Fund. See “— Special Tax Fund” below, “THE BONDS — Redemption — Mandatory Redemption from Special Tax Prepayments ” and Appendix F — “SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE INDENTURE.”
Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure
Pursuant to Section 53356.1 of the Act, the District has covenanted in the Indenture that it will determine or cause to be determined, no later than September 15 of each year, whether or not any owners of property within the District are delinquent in the payment of the Special Tax levied thereon and that, if such delinquencies exist, the District will order and cause to be commenced no later than November 1, and thereafter diligently prosecute, an action in the superior court to foreclose the lien of the Special Tax or installment thereof not paid when due.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the District is not required under the Indenture to order the commencement of foreclosure proceedings if (a) the total Special Tax delinquency in the District for such Fiscal Year is les s than 5% of the total amount of the Special Tax levied in such Fiscal Year, and (b) the amount then on deposit in the Reserve Fund is equal to the Reserve Requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the District determines that any single parcel is delinquent in excess of $5,000 in the payment of the Special Tax, then the District will diligently institute, prosecute and pursue foreclosure proceedings against such parcel. 349
20 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
The mere commencement of foreclosure proceedings will not assure a prompt and favorable resolution of Special Tax delinquencies. The ability of the District to foreclose the lien of delinquent unpaid Special Tax may be limited. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Bankruptcy and Legal Delays” and “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — FDIC/Federal Government Interests in Properties.” Moreover, even if a judgment of foreclosure and order of sale is obtained, the District must cause a notice of levy to be issued. Under current law, the property owner has 120 days from the date of service of the notice of levy in which to redeem the subject property. If the property owner fails to redeem the property and it is sold, the property owner’s only remedy is an action to set aside the sale, which action must be brought within 90 days of the date of sale. If such an action results in the setting aside of the foreclosure sale, the judgment is revived, and the District would be entitled to receive interest on the revived judgment as if the sale had not been made. Under former law a property owner had a period of one year within which to redeem property to be sold, and the constitutionality of the legislation that eliminated the one year redemption period has not been tested.
There can be no assurance that, even if the subject property is sold, the proceeds from such sale will be sufficient to pay the delinquent installments of the Special Tax. The Act does not require the District or any other governmental agency to purchase or otherwise acquire any Assessor’s Parcel being sold if there is no other purchaser at such sale. The Act does require that property being sold pursuant to foreclosure under the Act must be sold for not less than the judgment amount (which must include reasonable attorneys’ fees, together with interest, penalties, and other authorized charges and costs) plus post judgment interest and authorized costs, unless a lower bid price is authorized by the Owners of not less than 75% by value of the Bonds and any Additional Bonds Outstanding.
Special Tax Fund
The Indenture provides that the Trustee will est ablish and maintain a separate fund designated the “Special Tax Fund.” The Indenture requires that the District transfer Special Tax Revenues (other than Special Tax prepayments) to the Trustee for deposit into the Special Tax Fund as soon as practicable after the District’s receipt thereof, but in any event no later than ten Business Days prior to the Interest Payment Date after such receipt. No later than the Business Day immediately preceding each Interest Payment Date, after having made any requested transfers to the Administrative Expense Fund, as requested by the District, to have sufficient amounts available therein to pay Administrative Expenses, the Trustee is required by the Indenture to make transfers from the Special Tax Fund to the Interest Account in the Bond Fund, the Principal Account in the Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund in the amounts and in the priority specified in the Indenture. See Appendix F — “SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE INDENTURE.”
As soon as practicable after the District’s receipt of Special Tax prepayments, but in any event no later than ten Business Days prior to the Interest Payment Date after such receipt, the District is required to transfer any Special Tax prepayment to the Trustee and, in connection therewith, subm it to the Trustee a Written Certificate identifying such amounts as Special Tax prepayment, identifying the portion of such Special Tax prepayments so transferred that is to be applied to the Redemption Price of the Bonds and any Additional Bonds and identifying the portion of such Special Tax prepayment that is to be applied to the payment of interest on the Bonds and any Additional Bonds to be so redeemed. The portion of such Special Tax prepayment that is to be applied to the Redemption Price will be deposited by the Trustee in the Redemption Fund and will be applied to the redemption of the Bonds and any Additional Bonds pursuant to the Indenture. The portion of such Special Tax prepayment that is to be applied to the payment of interest on the Bonds and any Additional Bonds to be so redeemed will be deposited by the Trustee in the Interest Account and will be applied to the payment of such interest.
Reserve Fund
The Indenture provides that the Trustee will establish and maintain a separate fund designated the “Reserve Fund.” On the Closing Date, the Trustee will deposit in the Reserve Fund the amount specified under the Indenture. See “ESTIMATED SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS.” The Trustee is also required, not later 350
21 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
than the Business Day immediately preceding each Interest Payment Date, to transfer from the Special Tax Fund (after the requisite transfers to the Administrative Expense Fund, the Interest Account and the Principal Account) the amount, if any, necessary to cause the amount on deposit in the R eserve Fund to be equal to the Reserve Requirement. The Indenture defines “Reserve Requirement” to mean, as of the date of any calculation, the least of (i) “10% of the proceeds of the issue,” within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code (excluding Bonds and any Additional Bonds refunded with the proceeds of subsequently issued Additional Bonds secured by the Special Tax on a parity with such Bonds and Additional Bonds), (ii) Maximum Annual Debt Service and (iii) 125% of Average Annual Debt Service.
Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, all amounts deposited in the Reserve Fund are to be used and withdrawn by the Trustee solely for the purpose of (i) making transfers to the Interest Account in accordance with the Indenture in the event that, on th e Business Day prior to an Interest Payment Date, amounts in the Interest Account are insufficient to pay the interest on the Bonds and any Additional Bonds due and payable on such Interest Payment Date, (ii) making transfers to the Principal Account in ac cordance with the Indenture in the event that, on the Business Day prior to a September 1 on which principal of the Bonds and any Additional Bonds is due and payable (including principal due and payable by reason of mandatory sinking fund redemption of the Bonds and any Additional Bonds), amounts in the Principal Account are insufficient to pay such principal, and (iii) redeeming Bonds and any Additional Bonds in accordance with the Indenture as described in the following paragraph.
Whenever Bonds or any Additional Bonds are to be optionally redeemed or redeemed from Special Tax prepayments, a proportionate share (determined as provided below) of the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund will, on the date on which amounts to redeem such Bonds and any Additional Bonds are deposited in the Redemption Fund or otherwise deposited with the Trustee, be transferred by the Trustee from the Reserve Fund to the Redemption Fund or to such deposit held by the Trustee and will be applied to the redemption of said Bonds and any Additional Bonds; provided that, such amount will be so transferred only if and to the extent that the amount remaining on deposit in the Reserve Fund will be at least equal to the Reserve Requirement (excluding from the calculation thereof said Bond s and any Additional Bonds to be redeemed). Such proportionate share will be equal to the largest integral multiple of the minimum Authorized Denomination for said Bonds and any Additional Bonds that is not larger than the amount equal to the product of ( i) the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund on the date of such transfer, times (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the principal amount of Bonds and any Additional Bonds to be so redeemed and the denominator of which is the principal amount of Bonds and any Additional Bonds to be Outstanding on the day prior to the date on which such Bonds and any Additional Bonds are to be so redeemed.
Whenever the balance in the Reserve Fund exceeds the amount required to redeem or pay Outstanding Bonds and any Additional Bonds, including interest accrued to the date of payment or redemption and premium, if any, due upon redemption, the Trustee will, upon receipt of a Written Request of the District, transfer the amount in the Reserve Fund to the Interest Account, Principal Account and/or Redemption Fund, as applicable, to be applied, on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the payment and redemption of all of the Outstanding Bonds and any Additional Bonds. If, as a result of the scheduled payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds and any Additional Bonds, the Reserve Requirement is reduced, the Trustee will transfer an amount equal to the amount of such reduction to the Interest Account.
Investment of Moneys
All moneys held by the Trustee in any of the funds or accounts established pursuant to the Indenture are required to be invested by the Trustee solely in Permitted Investments, as directed in writing by the District. As used in the Indenture, the phrase “Permitted Investments” includes a variety of investments, some of which may not be rated by a national rating service. See Appendix F — “SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE INDENTURE — Definitions.”
351
22 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
No Additional Bonds Except for Refunding Bonds
So long as any of the Bonds and any Additional Bo nds remain Outstanding, the District will not issue any obligations payable from Net Special Tax Revenues senior to the Bonds. The District may issue Additional Bonds or obligations payable on a parity with the Bonds and any Additional Bonds, if, among ot her things:
(i) upon the issuance of such Additional Bonds, no Event of Default will occur or be continuing under the Indenture; (ii) the proceeds of the Additional Bonds will be applied to refund the Bonds or any Additional Bonds previously issued under the Indenture, pay Costs of Issuance incurred in connection with the issuance of such Additional Bonds, and/or make any requisite deposit to the Reserve Fund; and (iii) the Annual Debt Service in each Bond Year, calculated for all Bonds and any Additional Bonds that will be Outstanding after the issuance of such Additional Bonds, will be less than or equal to Annual Debt Service in such Bond Year, calculated for all Bonds and any Additional Bonds that are Outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of suc h Additional Bonds.
The District may issue obligations payable from Net Special Tax Revenues on a basis subordinate to the Bonds and any Additional Bonds.
THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT
General Information Regarding the District
The District was organiz ed by the City Council under the Act to provide for the financing of public improvements to meet the needs of new development related to the District. The qualified electors within the boundaries of the District, being the then owners of all property in t he District, authorized the District to incur bonded indebtedness to finance certain public facilities to meet the needs of new development within the District and approved the Rate and Method for and authorized the levy of the Special Tax.
The District includes approximately 20.57 gross acres and is located in the northwestern portion of the City. The District is located along the east side of Citrus Avenue at Fontus Way, just north of Duncan Canyon Road. The District is being developed into a gated resi dential community known as “Monterado” by Lennar Homes, and is expected to consist of a total of 198 detached condominium residential units in two product lines known as “Rivello” and “Salerno.” Rivello is proposed for 89 single family detached alley load residential units and Salerno is proposed for 109 single family detached cluster residential units. The District is located in Tract Map No. 20224, recorded on March 24, 2022.
Lennar Homes acquired the property within the District in October 202 0 and home closings began in November 2022. As of February 15, 2024, 149 residential units had been completed and conveyed to individual homeowners, Lennar Homes owned six completed model units (none of which were in escrow), nine homes over 95% complete (all of which were in escrow), 21 residential units under construction and less than 95% complete (14 of which were in escrow), and 13 finished lots (none of which were in escrow). As of April 1, 2024, within the District, 159 residential units had been completed and conveyed to individual homeowners, Lennar Homes owned six completed model units (one of which was in escrow), seven homes over 95% complete (all of which were in escrow), 13 residential units under construction and less than 95% complete (all of which were in escrow), and 13 finished lots (none of which were in escrow) . Sales contracts are subject to cancelation and, therefore, homes currently in escrow may not result in closed escrows with the prospective homebuyers. Within the District, bu ilding permits had been obtained for all 198 planned residential units within the District as of February 15, 2024; accordingly, all 198 parcels will be classified as Developed Property for the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy. See “PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT.” The District is zoned RMU (or Regional Mixed Use) on the City’s General Plan Land Use Map which allows for residential land use with a density of 12-24 dwelling units per acre. Tract Map No. 20224, recorded March 24, 2022, subdivided the District into a single lot along with condominium maps which divide the property into 198 single family units, along with a community center and pool/spa, tot lot, gazebo area, outdoor exercise 352
23 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
area, covered eating areas, setback areas and internal streets . The approved condominium maps results in a density of approximately 9.62 dwelling units per acre, which is within the approved designation.
Water service to the property within the District will be supplied by the Fontana Water Company and sewer service to the property within the District will be supplied by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency.
Electricity will be supplied by Southern California Edison Company, gas by the Southern California Gas Company and schools by the Fontana Unified School District.
Like all of Southern California, the land within the District is subject to seismic activity. The Distri ct is not located in a County Designated Fault Zone or an Earthquake Fault Zone Boundary. However, faults that have the potential to generate the strongest ground shaking in the Fontana area include the Cucamonga (thrust fault), the San Jacinto (strike -slip fault), and the San Andreas (strike -slip) fault. The Cucamonga fault is an active fault that crosses the northern portion of the City, trending northwest along the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains. The Lytle Creek Branch of the San Jacinto Fault is an active fault that crosses the extreme northeast portion of the City in a southeastern direction. There are several other faults that border the Lytle Creek alluvial basin, including the Chino, San Andreas and San Jacinto faults.
In recent years, wildfires have caused extensive damage throughout the State. The last major wildfire in the vicinity of the City was the Grand Prix Fire in October 2003. There have been smaller fires, such as the 147-acre Sierra Fire that burned in November 2018 and the 277-acre Karen Fire in July 2020. While the District is not aware of any particular risk of wildfire within the District, there can be no assurances that wildfires won’t occur within the District. See “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS — Geologic, Topographic and Climatic Conditions.”
The Federal Emergency Management Agency has determined that the District is located in a Zone “X” flood area (an area determined to be outside of the 0.2 percent annual chance floodplain), and flood insurance will not be required.
An aerial photo showing the taxable property within the District and a map showing the general location of the District and the surrounding area appears on the pages before page 1. More detailed information about the property therein is contained in Appendix B — “APPRAISAL REPORT,” and information about the ownership of such property is set forth under the caption “PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT.” General information about the City is set forth in Appendix E. 353

Direct and Overlapping Debt
The District is included within the boundaries of numerous overlapping local agencies providing governmental services. Some of these local agencies have outstanding bonds, and/or the authority to issue bonds, payable from taxes or assessments. The existing indebtedness payable from taxes and assessments that may be levied upon the property within the District is shown in Tab le 2 below. In addition to current debt, new community facilities districts and/or special assessment districts could be formed in the future encompassing all or a portion of the property within the District; and such districts or the agencies that formed them could issue more bonds and levy additional special taxes or assessments. 354

Property Values
Appraisal. In order to provide information with respect to the value of the land within the District, the District engaged Kitty Siino & Associates, Inc. to prepare the Appraisal. The principal of the Appraiser, who was actively involved in the preparation of the Appraisal, has an “MAI” designation from the Appraisal Institute and has prepared numerous appraisals for the sale of land secured municipal bonds. The Appraiser was selected by the District and has no material relationships with the City, the District or the owners of the land within the District other than the relationship represented by the engagement to prepare the Appraisal and other similar engagements for the City. The City instructed the Appraiser to prepare its analysis and report in conformity with 357
28 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
City-approved guidelines and the Appraisal Standar ds for Land Secured Financings published in 1994 and revised in 2004 by the commission now known as California Debt and Investment Advisory Commission. A copy of the Appraisal is included as Appendix B to this Official Statement.
The purpose of the Appraisal was to estimate the minimum market value of the fee simple estate, subject to special tax and special assessment liens, of the property within the District in its current condition. As of February 15, 2024 , within the District, 149 residential units had been completed and conveyed to individual homeowners, Lennar Homes owned six completed model units (none of which were in escrow), nine homes over 95% complete (all of which were in escrow), 21 residential units under construction and less than 95% complete (14 of which were in escrow), and 13 finished lots (none of which were in escrow).
Subject to the contingencies, assumptions and limiting conditions set forth in the Appraisal, the Appraiser concluded that, as of February 15, 2024, the minimum market value of the Taxable Property within the District was not less than $ 91,640,445, consisting of $78,139,585 for the 149 completed units conveyed to individual homeowners, $13,500,860 for the 15 completed or near completed homes and 34 finished lots and homes under construction owned by Lennar Homes. See Appendix B — “APPRAISAL REPORT.” Reference is made to Appendix B for a complete list and full discussion of the applicable contingencies, assumptions and limiting conditions and the methodology employed by the Appraiser. In the event that any of the contingencies, assumptions and limiting conditions are not actually realized, the value of the property within the District may be less than the amount reported in the Appraisal. In any case, there can be no assurance that any portion of the property within the District would actually sell for the amount indicated by the Appraisal.
The Appraisal merely indicates the Appraiser’s opinion as to the minimum market value of the property referred to therein as of the date and under the conditions specified therein. The Appraiser’s opinion reflects conditions prevailing in the applicable market as of the date of value. The Appraiser’s opinion does not predict the future value of the subject property, and there can be no assurance that market conditions will not adversely change in the future.
The Appraiser has specifically consented to the inclusion of the Appraisal in this Official Statement.
Nevertheless, the Appraisal contains the following statement:
The acceptance of and/or use of this appraisal report by the client or any third party constitutes acceptance of the following conditions:
The liability of Kitty Siino &Associates, Inc. and the appraisers responsible for this report is limited to the client only and to the fee actually received by the appraisers. Further, there is no accountability, obligation or liability to any third -party. If the appraisal report is placed in the hands of anyone other than the client for whom this report was prepared, the client shall make such party and/or parties aware of all limiting conditions and assumptions of this assignment and related discussions. Any party who uses or relies upon any information in this report, without the preparer’s written consent, does so at his own risk.
If the client or any third party brings legal action against Kitty Siino &Associates, Inc. or the signer of the Appraisal and the appraisers prevail, the party initiating such legal action shall reimburse Kitty Siino &Associates, Inc. and/or the appraisers for any and all costs of any nature, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in their defense.
It is a condition precedent to the issuance of the Bonds that the Appraiser deliver to the District a certification to the effect that nothing has come to the attention of the Appraiser subsequent to the date of value of the Appraisal that would cause the Appraiser to believe that the value of property in the District is less than the minimum value reported in the Appraisal. However, the Appraiser has not performed any procedures since the date of value to obtain knowledge of such events or occurrences nor is it obligated to do so in the future. 358

Value-to-Lien Ratios
The value of the property within the District is significant because, in the event of a delinquency in the payment of the Special Tax, the District may foreclose only against delinquent parcels. Likewise, the ratio of the value of a parcel to its “share” of the Bonds is important because it provides an indication o f the extent of the relative burden imposed on each parcel by the applicable Special Tax. As indicated above, the minimum market value of the property within the District is not less than $ 91,640,445. The ratio of that value to the $7,665,000* total principal amount of the Bonds is approximately 11.96*-to-1. This ratio does not include other overlapping general obligation debt within the District. At this time there is no other overlapping land secured special tax or assessment debt within the District. See “ — Direct and Overlapping Debt.” Taking the $7,665,000* principal amount of the Bonds and $420,290 in other overlapping general obligation debt within the District into account, the ratio of the minimum market value to the total amount of direct and overlapping bonded debt for the District of $ 8,085,290* is approximately 1 1.33*-to-1. Table 4 sets forth the minimum market value-to-lien ratios of all the taxable property within the District by development status as of February 15, 2024 based on the projected Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy.
Each of the aforesaid value -to-lien ratios is for the entire District, however, the ratios of the value of individual lots within the District to their respective shares of the principal amount of the Bonds can be expected to vary substantially depending upon the selling price thereof. The following Table 5 sets forth the value-to-lien ratios within the District by land use class under the Rate and Method using the principal amount of the Bonds allocated based on the projected Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy.
Additionally, the following Table 6 sets forth the stratification of value-to-liens of the parcels within the District, based on the appraised value of such parcels set forth in the Appraisal and such parcels’ respective shares of the principal amount of the Bonds (allocated to each parcel based upon its respective share of the total projected Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy) and the ratio of the appraised value to its share of the Bonds.
Taxable property within the District will be classified as “Developed Property” for purposes of the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy if a building permit for such property is obtained by May 1, 2024. Based on the development status within the Distri ct as of February 15, 2024 , building permits had been issued for all 198 residential parcels of Taxable Property within the District; accordingly, all 198 residential parcels within the District will be classified as Developed Property for purposes of the projected Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy.

PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT
Representatives of Lennar Homes have provided the information in this section regarding Lennar Homes and its development in the District. Neither the Underwriter nor the City has in dependently confirmed or verified the information in this section of the Official Statement nor does any such party make any representation as to accuracy or adequacy of this information. Further, there may be material adverse changes in this information after the date of this Official Statement.
The information in this section of the Official Statement regarding ownership of certain taxable property in the District has been included because it is considered relevant to an informed evaluation of the Bonds. The inclusion in this Official Statement of information related to Lennar Homes should not be construed to suggest that the Bonds, or the Special Tax that will be used to pay the Bonds, are recourse obligations of Lennar Homes, or any other property owner in the District. A property owner may sell or otherwise dispose of land within the District or a development or any interest therein at any time.
No assurance can be given that the proposed development within the District will occur as described below. As the proposed land development progresses and parcels are sold, it is expected that the ownership of the land within the District will become more diversified. No assurance can be given that development of the land within the District will occur in a timely manner or in the configuration or intensity described herein, or that any landowner described herein will obtain or retain ownership of any of the land within the District.
The Bonds and the Special Tax are not personal obligations of Lennar Homes or any other current or subsequent property owners and, in the event that Lennar Homes or any other current or subsequent property owner defaults in the payment of the Special Tax, the City may proceed with judicial foreclosure but has no direct recourse to the assets of Lennar Homes or any other current or subsequent property owner. As a result, other than as provided in the Official Statement, no financial statements or information is, or will be, provided about Lennar Homes or any other current or subsequent property owner. The Bonds are secured solely by the Net Special Tax Revenues and other amounts pledged under the Indenture. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS” and “SPECIAL RISK FACTORS.”

Development Plan
General. Lennar Homes plans to construct a total of 198 residential units in the District in a community known as Monterado. Monterado is a gated community consisting of two product lines known as “ Rivello at Monterado,” which is planned to be comprised of 8 9 single family detached alley -load residential units, and “Salerno at Monterado,” which is planned for 109 cluster detached condominiums. For each of the Rivello and Salerno products, Monterado features two story floorplans with three exterior architectural styles: Traditional, Spanish, and Craftsman. Home exteriors feature dual glazed low-E windows, insulated roll-up sectional garage doors, Boral cool -roof tiles and drought tolerant front yard landscaping. Monterado homes include tankless water heaters, media enclosures and a Honeywell smart thermostat. Interiors include bullnose corners, panel interior doors, LED downlights, white-rocker light switches and ceramic tile at entry. Kitchens include granite slab countertops and thermofoil flat panel cabinets, stainless teel sink and GE stainless steel appliances. Master suites include undermount sinks with Moen faucets, semi-frameless clad enclosures and walk-in closets.
The District is located in Tract Map No. 20224, recorded on March 24, 2022. Lennar Homes acquired the property within the District in October 2020 and home closings began in November 2022. As of February 15, 2024, 149 residential units had been completed and conveyed to individual homeowners, Lennar Homes owned six completed model units (none of which were in escrow), nine homes over 95% complete (all of which were in escrow), 21 residential units under construction and less than 95% complete (1 4 of which were in escrow), and 1 3 finished lots (none of which were in escrow). As of April 1, 2024, within the District, 159 residential units had been completed and conveyed to individual homeowner s, Lennar Homes owned six completed model units (one of which was in escrow), seven homes over 95% complete (all of which were in escrow), 13 residential units under construction and less than 95% complete (all of which were in escrow), and 13 finished lots (none of which were in escrow). Sales contracts are subject to cancelation and, therefore, homes currently in escrow may not result in closed escrows with the prospective homebuyers. Within the District, 198 building permits had been obtained as of Feb ruary 15, 2024. Accordingly, all 198 parcels within the District will be classified as Developed Property for the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levy.
The following table describes the development and ownership status as of February 15, 2024 by floor plan within the development.

The first residential units within Salerno were conveyed to individual homeowners in November 2022 and Lennar Homes expects that construction will be complete within Salerno by October 2024.
Required Infrastructure. All backbone infrastructure required to build-out all 198 residential units has been completed.
Entitlement Status. Other than certain permits required in the normal course of home construction, all discretionary entitlements required to complete the development and sales of homes in the District have been received. All environmental approvals have been secured in order to complete the development in the District.
Conditions of Approval . None of the remaining infrastructure improvements are required to be completed as a condition of receiving building or occupancy permits.
Except as described in th is Official Statement and except for those consents, permits, authorizations, certifications and approvals of governmental entities required in the ordinary course of development, Lennar Homes has no actual knowledge of any impediment to construction or ob taining land use entitlements which could be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on its ability to complete the planned development of its property within the District as described in the Official Statement.
While the information set forth in this Official Statement reflects Lennar Homes’ current development expectations, no assurance can be given that final home construction and conveyance to individual home buyers will be carried out as described in this Official Statement.
Financing Plan
To date, Lennar Homes has financed its land acquisition and various site development and home construction costs related to its property in the District through internally generated funds (which may include home sales revenues and funding from its parent company Lennar Corporation). As of April 1, 2024, Lennar Homes had expended approximately $ ___________ on land acquisition, land development, homebuilding, marketing and sales costs. As of such date, Lennar Homes expected to incur approximately $___________ on remaining land acquisition and development costs and approximately $__________ on remaining homebuilding, marketing, and sales costs for its property in the District.
Lennar Homes expects to use internally generated funding (which may include home sales revenues and funding from its parent company Lennar Corporation) to complete its land acquisition and development in the District. Lennar Homes believes that it will have sufficient funds available to complete its planned land acquisition and development in the District i n accordance with the development schedule described in this Official Statement.
Notwithstanding the belief of Lennar Homes that it will have sufficient funds to complete its planned land acquisition and development in the District, no assurance can be giv en that sources of financing available to Lennar Homes will be sufficient to complete the land acquisition, development and home construction as currently anticipated. While Lennar Homes has made such internal financing available in the past, there can be no assurance whatsoever of its willingness or ability to do so in the future. Neither 366
37 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
Lennar Homes nor any of its affiliates has any legal obligation of any kind to make any such funds available or to obtain loans. Other than pointing out the willingness of Lennar Homes to provide internal financing in the past, Lennar Homes has not represented in any way that it will do so in the future. If and to the extent that internal financing and home sales revenues are inadequate to pay the costs to complete Lennar Homes’ planned land acquisition, development and home construction in the District as currently anticipated and other financing by Lennar Homes is not put into place, there could be a shortfall in the funds required to complete the proposed land acquisition, development and home construction by Lennar Homes and portions of the project may not be developed.
SPECIAL RISK FACTORS
The principal source of payment of debt service on the Bonds will be payments of the Special Tax made with respect to the Taxable Property. As discussed under “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS — Special Tax,” the Special Tax is to be levied annually against all such Taxable Property either at the maximum rate authorized by the Rate and Method or at such lower rates as are determined by the District Administrator to raise sufficient funds to comply with the agreements, conditions, covenants and terms contained in the Indenture, and in accordance with the Act. The Special Tax is to be collected on the tax roll of the District at the same time and in the same manner as general ad valorem real property taxes are collected. The Special Tax cannot be levied at a tax rate higher than the maximum tax rate even if the maximum tax rate will not produce sufficient Net Special Tax Revenues to pay the principal and interest then payable with respect to the Bonds. See discussions below under “— Levy of the Special Tax” and “— Collection of the Special Tax.” Payment of the Special Tax levied on a parcel is secured by a continuing lien against such parcel. In the event an installment of the Special Tax included in the tax bill for a parcel of Taxable Property is not paid when due, the District has covenanted to institute foreclosure proceedings in court to cause the parcel to be sold in order to attempt to recover the delinquent amount from the sale proceeds. Foreclosure and sale may not always result in the recovery of the full amount of delinquent installments of the Special Tax. See “— Collection of the Special Tax.” The sufficiency of the foreclosure sale proceeds to cover the delinquent amount depends in part upon the market for and the value of the parcel at the time o f the sale. Sufficiency of the foreclosure sale proceeds to cover a delinquency may also depend upon the value of prior or parity liens and similar claims. Further, other governmental claims, such as hazardous substance claims, may affect the realizable value even though such claims may not rise to the status of liens. See “— Hazardous Substances.” Timely foreclosure and sale proceedings with respect to a parcel of Taxable Property may be forestalled or delayed by a stay in the event the owner of the par cel becomes the subject of bankruptcy proceedings. Not only may foreclosure and sale proceedings be forestalled or delayed, but the sale of a parcel may also be similarly affected by a bankruptcy stay. Further, should the stay not be lifted, payment of t he Special Tax may be subordinated to bankruptcy law priorities. See “— Bankruptcy and Legal Delays.” Although bankruptcy proceedings may forestall or delay a foreclosure and sale or a tax sale of a delinquent parcel of Taxable Property, the Special Tax is secured by a lien which, assuming proper procedures are followed, may be enforced against the parcel. There may not be any recourse against a bankrupt property owner since the owner is not personally obligated to pay the Special Tax. Further, if proper disclosure of the authorization of the Special Tax is not made to the owner, the willingness or ability of an owner to pay the Special Tax may be adversely affected. See “— Payment of the Special Tax is Not a Personal Obligation of the Owners.”
The District is not obligated to advance funds to pay such debt service except from moneys on deposit in the Reserve Fund. See “— Bonds Are Limited Obligations.” Even if debt service is timely paid, interest on the Bonds may have to be included in the gross income of the owner of the Bonds by reason of some circumstance occurring subsequent to issuance of the Bonds, thereby reducing the after-tax yield. See “— Loss of Tax Exemption.” 367

Risks of Real Estate Secured Investments Generally – Declines in Value Purchasers of the Bonds will be subject to the risks generally incident to an investment secured by real estate, including, without limitation, (i) adverse changes in local market conditions, such as changes in the market value of real property in the vicinity of the District, the supply of or demand for competitive properties in such area, and the market value of property in the event of sale or foreclosure; (ii) changes in real estate tax rates and other operating expenses, governmental rules and fiscal policies; and (iii) natural disasters (including, without limitation, earthquakes, wildfires and floods), which may result in uninsured losses. See the caption “— Increasing Mortgage Interest Rates” below.
No assurance can be given that the individual property owner s within the District will pay the Special Tax in the future or that they will be able to pay the Special Tax on a timely basis. See the caption “— Bankruptcy and Legal Delays” for a discussion of certain limitations on the District’s ability to pursue judicial proceedings with respect to delinquent parcels within the District.
Levy of the Special Tax
The principal source of money with which to pay debt service on the Bonds is the proceeds derived from the annual levy and collection of the Special Tax appl icable to the Taxable Property in the District. The amount of the Special Tax that can be levied is limited to the maximum tax rates authorized pursuant to the Rate and Method. Additionally, pursuant to Section 53321(d) of the Government Code, the Special Tax levied against any Assessor’s parcel for which an occupancy permit for private residential use has been issued shall not be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owner of any other Assessor’s parcel within the District by more t han ten percent above the amount that would have been levied in that fiscal year had there never been any such delinquencies or defaults. As a result, it is possible that the District may not be able to increase the tax levy to the Assigned Special Tax on residential parcels in all years. The levies cannot be made at higher rates even if the failure to do so would result in insufficient Net Special Tax Revenues to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds as the same become due and payable.
The levy of the Special Tax will rarely, if ever, result in a uniform relationship between the value of a particular parcel and the amount of the levy of the Special Tax against such parcel. Thus, there will rarely, if ever, be a uniform relationship between the value of a parcel and its proportionate share of the debt service on the Bonds. The Special Tax levied in any particular Fiscal Year on a parcel is based upon the revenue needs of the District and the application of the Rate and Method. The application of the Rate and Method will, in turn, be dependent upon certain development factors with respect to each parcel by comparison with similar development factors with respect to the other parcels in the District. Thus, in addition to annual variations in the revenue needs of the District that must be met from the Special Tax, the following are some of the factors which might cause the levy of the Special Tax on any particular parcel to vary from the Special Tax that might otherwise be expected:
Reduction in the number of parcels of Taxable Property, for reasons such as acquisition of such parcels by a governmental entity and failure of the governmental entity to pay the Special Tax based upon a claim of exemption or, in the case of the federal government or an a gency thereof, immunity from taxation, thereby resulting in an increased tax burden on the remaining parcels of Taxable Property; and Failure of the owners of certain parcels of Taxable Property to pay the applicable Special Tax and delays in the collection of or inability to collect such Special Tax by tax sale or foreclosure and sale of the delinquent parcels, thereby resulting in an increased tax burden on the remaining parcels of Taxable Property.
Collection of the Special Tax
The timely payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds is ultimately dependent upon the timely payment of all of the Special Tax. Any money on deposit in the Reserve Fund can be used to make such payment 368
39 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
in the event of delinquencies, but the replenishment of the Reserve Fund will be dependent on the recovery of such delinquencies. The Indenture provides that the Special Tax is to be collected in the same manner and at the same time and in the same installment as the general taxes on real property are payable (or in such other manner as the City Council shall determine, including direct billing of the affected property owners) and, except as provided in the special covenant for foreclosure described under the caption “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS — Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure” and in the Act, is to be subject to the same proportionate penalties and the same procedure, sale and lien priority in case of delinquency as is provided for ad valorem taxes on real property.
Pursuant to the Act, in the event of any delinquency in the payment of the Special Tax, the District may order the institution of a superior court action to foreclose the lien therefor within specified time limits. In such an action, the real property subject to the unpaid amount may be sold at judicial foreclosure sale. Such judicial foreclosure action is not mandatory. However, the District has covenanted for the benefit of the owners of the Bonds that it will institute foreclosure proceedings as authorized by the Act in order to enforce the lien of the delinquent installments of the Special Tax under certain circumstances. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS — Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure.” In the event that foreclosure proceedings are commenced, such foreclosure proceedings could be stayed by the commencement of bankruptcy proceedings by or against the owner of the property being foreclosed. In the event that sales or foreclosures of property are necessary, there could be a delay in payments to Owners of the Bonds pending such sales or the prosecution of foreclosure proceedings and receipt by the District of the proceeds of sale if the Reserve Fund is depleted.
The District may be unable to make full or timely payment of debt service on the Bonds if pr operty owners in the District fail to pay installments of the Special Tax when due, if the Reserve Fund is depleted, or if the District is unable to sell foreclosed parcels for amounts sufficient to cover the delinquent installments of the Special Tax.
Failure to Develop Properties
Development of property within the District may be subject to unexpected delays, disruptions and changes which may affect the willingness and ability of Lennar Homes, or any other property owner to pay the Special Tax prior to de linquency. Land development is subject to comprehensive federal, State and local regulations. Approval is required from various agencies in connection with the layout and design of developments, the nature and extent of improvements, construction activity, land use, zoning, school and health requirements, as well as numerous other matters. There is always the possibility that such approvals will not be obtained or, if obtained, will not be obtained on a timely basis. Failure to obtain any such agency ap proval or satisfy such governmental requirements would adversely affect planned land development. Development of land in the District is also subject to the availability of water. Finally, development of land is subject to economic considerations.
As of February 15, 2024, within the District, 149 residential units had been completed and conveyed to individual homeowners, Lennar Homes owned six completed model units (none of which were in escrow), nine homes over 95% complete (all of which were in escrow), 21 residential units under construction and less than 95% complete (14 of which were in escrow), and 13 finished lots (none of which were in escrow). As of April 1 , 202 4, within the District, 159 residential units had been completed and conveyed to indiv idual homeowners, Lennar Homes owned six completed model units (all of which were in escrow), seven homes over 95% complete (all of which were in escrow), 13 residential units under construction and less than 95% complete (all of which were in escrow), and 13 finished lots (none of which were in escrow). Sales contracts are subject to cancelation and, therefore, homes currently in escrow may not result in closed escrows with the prospective homebuyers. Within the District, building permits had been obtained for all 198 residential parcels within the District as of February 15, 2024; accordingly, all 198 residential parcels will be classified as Developed Property for the Fiscal Year 2024 -25 Special Tax levy. See “THE COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT” a nd “PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT.” However, no assurance can be given that the 369
40 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
remaining proposed residential development will be partially or fully completed; and for purposes of evaluating the investment quality of the Bonds, prospective purchasers should consider the possibility that such parcels will remain vacant and unimproved.
Undeveloped or partially developed land is inherently less valuable than developed land and provides less security to the Bond Owners should it be necessary for the District to foreclose on the property due to the nonpayment of the Special Tax. The failure to complete development in the District as planned, or substantial delays in the completion of the development may reduce the value of the property within the District and increase the length of time during which the Special Tax will be payable from undeveloped property, and may affect the willingness and ability of the owners of property within the District to pay the Special Tax prior to delinquency.
There can be no assurance that land development operations within the District will not be adversely affected by a future deterioration of the real estate market and economic conditions or future local, State and federal governmental policies relating to real estate de velopment, an increase in mortgage interest rates, the income tax treatment of real property ownership, or the national economy. A slowdown of the development process and the absorption rate could adversely affect land values and reduce the ability or desire of the property owners to pay the annual Special Tax. In that event, there could be a default in the payment of principal of, and interest on, the Bonds when due.
Bond Owners should assume that any event that significantly impacts the ability to develop land in the District would cause the property values within the District to decrease substantially from those estimated by the Appraiser and could affect the willingness and ability of the owners of land within the District to pay the Special Tax prior to delinquency.
Concentration of Property Ownership
Based on the development and ownership status as of February 15, 2024, Lennar Homes is expected to be responsible for approximately 24.95% of the projected Fiscal Year 2024 -25 Special Tax levied within the District. Lennar Homes reports that since such date, additional development and certain sales contracts for residential units have closed escrow to individual homeowners. Based on the development and ownership status as of April 1, 2024, Lennar Homes is expected to be responsible for approximately 19.86% of the projected Fiscal Year 2024-25 Special Tax levied within the District.
While the District includes 159 completed residential units owned by individual homeowners as of April 1, 2024, the inability or refusal of Lennar Homes to pay the Special Tax applicable to its property when due could result in the depletion of the Reserve Fund prior to reimbursement thereof from sale or foreclosu re proceedings, and/or insufficient money with which to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds as the same became due. Additionally, pursuant to the Act, the Special Tax levied in any fiscal year against any parcel of residential property in the District may not be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owners of any other parcels within the District by more than 10% above the amount that would have been levied in that fiscal year had there never been any such delinquencies or default. As a result, while the Maximum Special Tax pursuant to the Rate and Method may be higher, the Maximum Special Tax on parcels of residential parcels cannot be greater than 110% of the projected actual Special Tax levy on such parcels.
Exempt Properties
Certain properties are exempt from the Special Tax in accordance with the Rate and Method. In addition, the Act provides that properties or entities of the state, federal or local government are exempt from the Special Tax; provided, however, that property in the District acquired by a public entity through a negotiated transaction or by gift or devise, which is not otherwise exempt from the Special Tax, will continue to be subject to the Special Tax. In addition, the Act provides that if property s ubject to the Special Tax is acquired by a public entity through eminent domain proceedings, the obligation to pay the Special Tax with respect to that 370
41 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
property is to be treated as if it were a special assessment. The constitutionality and operation of these provisions of the Act have not been tested.
In particular, insofar as the Act requires payment of the Special Tax by a federal entity acquiring property in the District, it may be unconstitutional. If for any reason property in the District becomes ex empt from taxation by reason of ownership by a nontaxable entity such as the federal government or another public agency, subject to the limitation of the maximum authorized rates, the Special Tax will be reallocated to the remaining Taxable Properties in the District. This would result in the owners of such property paying a greater amount of the Special Tax and could have an adverse impact upon the timely payment of the Special Tax.
Moreover, if a substantial portion of property in the District becomes exempt from the Special Tax because of public ownership, or otherwise, the Maximum Annual Special Tax which could be levied upon the remaining acreage might not be sufficient to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds when due and a default would occur with respect to the payment of such principal and interest.
Constitutional Limitations on Taxation and Appropriations Articles XIIIA and XIIIB of the California Constitution. On June 6, 1978, California voters approved an amendment to the California Constitution, commonly known as Proposition 13 (the Jarvis/Gann Initiative), which added Article XIIIA to the California Constitution. The effect of Article XIIIA is to significantly limit the imposition of new ad valorem taxes, special taxes, transaction taxes, and sales taxes. On November 7, 1978, California voters approved Proposition 8, which made certain clarifications to Article XIIIA.
Article XIIIA of the California Constitution limits the amount of ad valorem taxes on real property to 1% of “full cash value” as determined by the county assessor. 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.” The “full cash value” is subject to annual adjustment to reflect increases, not to exceed 2% per year, or decrea ses in the consumer price index or comparable local data, or to reflect reductions in property value caused by damage, destruction or other factors.
Article XIIIA exempts from the 1% tax limitation any taxes to repay indebtedness approved by the voters pri or to July 1, 1978, and allows local governments to raise their property tax rates above the constitutionally mandated 1% ceiling for the purpose of paying off certain new general obligation debt issued for the acquisition or improvement of real property and approved by two-thirds of the votes cast by the qualified electorate. Article XIIIA requires a vote of two-thirds of the qualified electorate to impose special taxes on real property, while otherwise generally precluding the imposition of any additional ad valorem taxes, special taxes, transaction taxes, and sales taxes. In addition, Article XIIIA requires the approval of two-thirds of all members of the California Legislature to change any State laws resulting in increased tax revenues.
Enactment of Article XIIIA has reduced the amount of general property tax revenues received by the City. This reduction in such revenues makes it less likely that the City or the District will have surplus funds, other than the Reserve Fund for the Bonds, with which to advance funds to make any payments or to cure any deficiency in the Interest Account or Principal Account of the Special Tax Fund, should the City or the District, as applicable, in the exercise of its discretion, choose to do so. If there are additional delinquencies after exhaustion of funds in the Reserve Fund for the Bonds, none of the City or the District has any obligation to transfer into the Interest Account or Principal Account of the Special Tax Fund the amount of any such delinquencies out of any surplus moneys of the City.
On July 2, 1979, the Fifth District Court of Appeal rendered a 3 -0 decision in the case of County of Fresno v. Malmstrom (94 Cal.App.3d 974), that determined that special assessments are not subject to the limitations of Arti cle XIIIA (Proposition 13). The Court held the one percent tax limitation imposed by California Constitution Article XIIIA on ad valorem taxes does not apply to special assessments levied pursuant to the Improvement Act of 1911 (Streets and Highways Code, Section 5000 et seq., the relevant portions of 371
42 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
which are incorporated in the 1915 Act) and the 1913 Act. The Court further held that because special assessments pursuant to such acts are not within the definition of “special taxes” in Article XIIIA, the Constitution does not require the levy of assessments and the issuance of bonds to be approved by a two-thirds vote of the qualified electors in an assessment district. On September 12, 1979, the California Supreme Court refused to hear an appeal of the lower court’s decision.
At the November 6, 1979, general election, Proposition 4 (the Gann Initiative) was approved by the voters of California. Such proposition added Article XIIIB to the California Constitution.
Article XIIIB of the California Constitution limits the annual appropriations of the State and of any city, county, school district, authority, or other political subdivision of the State to the level of appropriations of the particular governmental entity for the prior fiscal year, as adjusted for changes in the cost of living, population and services rendered by the governmental entity. The “base year” for establishing such appropriation limit is the fiscal year 1978-79 and the limit is to be adjusted annually to reflect changes in population, consumer prices and certain increases in the cost of services provided by these public agencies.
Appropriations subject to Article XIIIB generally include the proceeds of taxes levied by the State or other entity of local government, exclusive of certain State subventions, refunds of taxes, benefit payments from retirement, unemployment insurance, and disability insurance funds. “Proceeds of taxes” include, but are not limited to, all tax revenues and the proceeds to an entity of government from (i) regulatory licenses, user charges, and user fees (but only to the extent such proceeds exceed the cost of providing the service or regulation), and (ii) the investment of tax revenues. Article XIIIB includes a requirement that if an entity’s revenues in any year exceed the amounts permitted to be spent, the excess would have to be allocated to fund schools or be returned by revising tax rates or fee schedules over the subsequent two years.
On December 17, 1980, the Third District Court of Appeal rendered a 3 -0 decision in the case County of Placer v. Corin (113 Cal. App. 3d 443) that determined that special assessments are not subject to the limitation of Article XIIIB (Proposition 4). The Court held that the definition of “proceeds of taxes” imposed by California Constitution Article XIIIB does not apply to special assessments and improvement bonds issued pursuant to the 1915 Act and the 1913 Act. The decision of the Court was not appealed.
The enactment of Article XIIIA of the California Constitution (Propositi on 13) and subsequent legislative enactments effectively repeal the otherwise mandatory duty on the part of the City, under the 1915 Act, to levy and collect a special tax (in an amount necessary to meet delinquencies, but not to exceed ten cents on each $100 of assessable property within the City in any one year) if other funds are not available to cover delinquencies.
In early 1990, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down as a violation of equal protection certain property tax assessment practices in West Virg inia, which had resulted in vastly different assessments of similar properties. Since Article XIIIA provides that property may only be assessed up to 2%, per year, except upon change of ownership or new construction, recent purchasers may pay substantiall y higher property taxes than long-time owners of comparable property in a community. The Supreme Court in the West Virginia case expressly declined to comment in any way on the constitutionality of Article XIIIA.
Based on this decision, however, property owners in California brought three suits challenging the acquisition value assessment provisions of Article XIIIA. Two cases involve residential property and one case involves commercial property. In all three cases, State trial and appellate courts have upheld the constitutionality of Article XIIIA’s assessment rules and concluded that the West Virginia case did not apply to California’s laws.
On June 3, 1991, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear the appeal in the challenge relating to commercial property, but the plaintiff subsequently decided to drop the case.
On October 7, 1991, the U.S. Supreme Court granted the plaintiff’s petition for a writ of certiorari and agreed to hear the Nordlinger v. Lynch case. On June 18, 1992, the U.S. Supreme Court affirmed the Nordlinger 372
43 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
decision (112 U.S. 2326) of the California Court of Appeal, Second Appellate District, which previously held that Article XIIIA does not violate the U.S. Constitution.
The City cannot predict whether any other pending or future challenges to the State’s present system of property tax assessment will be successful, when the ultimate resolution of any challenge will occur, or the ultimate effect any decision regarding the State’s present system of property tax assessment will have on the City’s revenues or on the State’s financial obligations to local governments.
Articles XIIIC and XIIID of the California Constitution . Proposition 218, a state ballot initiative known as the “Right to Vote on Taxes Act,” was approved by California voters on November 6, 1996.
Proposition 218 added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the State Constitution, and, with the exception of certain provisions, Articles XIIIC and XIIID became effective on November 6, 1996.
Among other things, Proposition 218 imposed certain voting requirements and other limitations on the imposition of new or increased taxes, assessments, and property-related fees and charges. Under Proposition 218 (i) all taxes imposed by local governments are deemed to be either general taxes, or specia l taxes, (ii) no local government may impose, extend, or increase any general tax unless and until such tax is submitted to the electorate and approved by a majority vote, and (iii) no local government may impose, extend, or increase any special tax unless and until such tax is submitted to the electorate and approved by a two -thirds vote. Special purpose districts, including community facilities districts and assessment districts, have no power to levy general taxes. The City believes that the issuance of the Bonds does not require the conduct of further proceedings under the Refunding Act, the 1915 Act, the 1913 Act, the Mello -Roos Act, or Proposition 218, as applicable, other than as described herein.
Proposition 218 provides that the initiative power shall “not be prohibited or otherwise limited in matters reducing or repealing any local tax, assessment, fee or charge...” Thus, Proposition 218 removes limitations on the initiative power in matters of, among other things, the Special Tax. Consequently, it is conceivable that the voters of the City or the District could, by future initiative, repeal, reduce, or prohibit the future imposition or increase of any Special Tax, subject to overriding federal constitutional principles relating to impairment of contracts.
Although the provisions of Article XIIIC have not been interpreted by the courts, the City believes that the initiative power cannot be used to reduce or repeal the unpaid Special Tax that are pledged as security for payment of the Bonds or to o therwise interfere with the mandatory, statutory duty of the City and the County Auditor with respect to the unpaid Special Tax that are pledged as security for payment of the Bonds.
The Appellate District, Division One, issued its opinion in 2014 in City of San Diego v. Melvin Shapiro, et al. (228 Cal. App. 4th 756) (the “San Diego Decision”). The case involved a Convention Center Facilities District (the “CCFD”) established by the City of San Diego. The CCFD is a financing district much like a community facilities district established under the provisions of the Act. The CCFD is comprised of all of the real property in the entire City of San Diego. However, the special tax to be levied within the CCFD was to be levied only on hotel properties located within the CCFD.
The election authorizing the special tax was limited to owners of hotel properties and lessees of real property owned by a governmental entity on which a hotel is located. Thus, the election was not a registered voter election. Such appro ach to determining who would constitute the qualified electors of the CCFD was modeled after Section 53326(c) of the Act, which generally provides that, if a special tax will not be apportioned in any tax year on residential property, the legislative body may provide that the vote shall be by the landowners of the proposed district whose property would be subject to the special tax. The Court held that the CCFD special tax election was invalid under the California Constitution because Article XIIIA, Section 4 thereof and Article XIIIC, Section 2 thereof require that the electors in such an election be the registered voters within the district.
373
44 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
The facts of the San Diego Decision show that there were hundreds of thousands of registered voters within the CCFD (viz., all of the registered voters in the City of San Diego). There were no registered voters in the District at the time of formation. In the San Diego Decision, the Court expressly stated that it was not addressing the validity of landowner voting to impose special taxes pursuant to the Act in situations where there are fewer than 12 registered voters. Thus, by its terms, the Court’s holding does not apply to the Special Tax elections in the District. Moreover, Section 53341 of the Act provides that any “action or proceeding to attack, review, set aside, void or annul the levy of a special tax…shall be commenced within 30 days after the special tax is approved by the voters.” Similarly, Section 53359 of the Act provides that any action to determine the validity of bonds issued pursuant to the Act be brought within 30 days of the voters approving the issuance of such bonds. Voters in the District approved the Special Tax and the issuance of bonds on September 13, 2022.
Based on Sections 53341 and 53 359 of the Act and analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions, the City believes the Special Tax is being levied in accordance with the Rate and Method and the Act.
The interpretation and application of Proposition 218 will ultimately be determined by the courts with respect to a number of the matters discussed above, and it is not possible at this time to predict with certainty the outcome of such determination.
Ballot Initiatives; Initiative 1935
General. Under the Califor nia Constitution, the power of initiative is reserved to the voters for the purpose of enacting statutes and constitutional amendments. Articles XIII A, XIII B, XIII C, and XIII D of the California Constitution were adopted pursuant to measures qualified for the ballot pursuant to the State’s constitutional initiative process , including through Proposition 13 in 1978, Proposition 218 in 1996 and Proposition 26 in 2010. From time to time, other initiative measures could be adopted by California voters. The adoption of any such initiative might place limitations on the ability of the State, the City, or other local agencies to increase revenues or to increase appropriations.
As described above, Proposition 218 was approved by California voters in 1996 and a dded Article XIII C to the California Constitution. On November 2, 2010, the voters of the State approved Proposition 26, known as the “Supermajority Vote to Pass New Taxes and Fees Act” (“Proposition 26”). Proposition 26, among other things, amends Article XIIIC to the California Constitution principally to define what constitutes a “tax” under the limitations and requirements of that provision. Article XIIIC imposes limitations on local governments when imposing certain taxes, including a requirement t hat the local government submit certain taxes to the electorate for its approval. Before Proposition 26, Article XIIIC did not define the term “tax.” Proposition 26 broadly defines a tax under Article XIIIC to include “any levy, charge, or exaction of any kind imposed by a local government.” Proposition 26 lists several exceptions to the definition of “tax,” which include (a) a charge for a specific benefit or privilege, which does not exceed the reasonable costs of providing the benefit or privilege, (b) a charge for a government service or product, which does not exceed the reasonable costs of providing the service or product, (c) a charge for the reasonable regulatory costs of issuing licenses and permits, performing investigations, inspections, and audi ts, and the administrative enforcement thereof, (d) a charge 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 as a result of a violati on 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.
Initiative 1935. From time to time constitutional initiatives or other initiative measures may be adopted by California voters. The adoption of any such initiative might place limitations on the ability of the State or any political subdivision thereof, including the City, to increase revenues or to increase appropriations, or might affect the ability of the District to collect the Special Tax.
One such proposed voter initiative, titled “The Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act” (“Initiative 1935”) has been determined to be eligible for the November 2024 Statewid e general election and, unless withdrawn by its proponent prior to June 27, 2024, will be certified as qualified for the ballot in such 374
45 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
election. Initiative 1935 would, among other things, amend the State Constitution to impose additional requirements for the imposition of taxes by State and local governments, such as requirements that the title and summary and ballot label or question for each tax measure identify the type, amount or rate, duration, and use of revenue of the tax (the “Initiative 1935 Ball ot Label Requirements”). Additionally, Initiative 1935 would provide that any tax imposed after January 1, 2022, not in compliance with its requirements is void 12 months after the effective date of Initiative 1935 unless subsequently reenacted in accordance therewith. If adopted, the scope and impact of Initiative 1935 would be subject to future judicial interpretation. The District is unable to predict how Initiative 1935, if adopted, might be interpreted by the courts, and there can be no assurance tha t any such interpretation would not have an adverse impact on the District’s ability to levy and collect the Special Tax.
At the request of the Governor of California and the State Legislature, the California Supreme Court has agreed to consider whether In itiative 1935 should be barred from appearing on the ballot as an unlawful revision of the State Constitution, given its potential wide -ranging impact on the ability of the State and local governments to fund their operations. The Governor and the State Legislature have requested a decision by the California Supreme Court by late June 2024, prior to the ballot certification date. Neither the City nor the District can predict the outcome of the pending litigation.
As described in this Official Statement, at the election held on September 13, 2022, the qualified electors within the District, consisting solely of the landowner that at the time owned all of the property within the boundaries of the District not exempt from the Special Tax, voted to approve the measure to levy the Special Tax. In connection with such election, such landowner, as the sole qualified elector, waived all requirements as to the form of the ballot for such election, any requirement pertaining to the conduct of such election, including any requirements as to form or content of election materials and any and all defects in procedure in any proceedings to levy the Special Tax or in the conduct of such election, whether known or unknown (other than, in the case of the election, the right t o have ballots accurately counted). In its Affirmation of Waiver, dated March 6, 2024, such elector acknowledged, confirmed and agreed that each such waiver by such elector was a knowing, intelligent and voluntary waiver and that such waivers by such elect or encompass, and constitute, a waiver of the Initiative 1935 Ballot Label Requirements and the landowner affirmed therein that it had waived the Initiative 1935 Ballot Label Requirements. Furthermore, in any event, the District believes the materials provided to the qualified electors for the September 13, 2022 election within the District substantially complied with the Initiative 1935 Ballot Label Requirements, which is the standard a court would likely apply to any judicial review of the election held within the District on September 13, 2022.
Maximum Special Tax
Within the limits of the Special Tax, the District may adjust the Special Tax levied on all property in the District to provide an amount required to pay interest on and principal of the Bonds, and the amount, if any, necessary to cure delinquencies and replenish the Reserve Fund to an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement for the respective Bonds and to pay Administrative Expenses. However, the amount of the Special Tax that may be levied against any property in the District is subject to the Maximum Special Tax applicable to it. There is no assurance that the Maximum Special Tax on the property in the District will be sufficient to pay the amounts required to be paid by the Indenture at all times. Additionally, pursuant to the Act, the Special Tax levied in any fiscal year against any parcel of residential property in the District may not be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owners of any other parcels within the District by more than 10% above the amount that would have been levied in that fiscal year had there never been any such delinquencies or defaults. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS — Special Tax.” Payment of the Special Tax is Not a Personal Obligation of the Owners An owner of a parcel of Taxable Property is not personally obligated to pay the Special Tax. Rather, the Special Tax is an obligation only against the parcel of Taxable Property. If the value of a parcel is not 375
46 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
sufficient, taking into account other obligations also payable thereby, to fully secure the Special Tax, the District has no recourse against the owner.
Disclosures to Future Purchasers
The District has recorded a notice of the Special Tax Lien in the Office of the County Recorder. While title companies normally refer to such notices in title reports, there can be no guarantee that such reference will be made or, if made, that a prospective purchaser or lender will consider such Special Tax obligation in the purchase of a parcel of land, a home or a commercial or industrial facility in the District or the lending of money thereon. The Act requires the subdivider (or its agent or representative) of a subdivision to notify a prospective purchaser or long-term lessor of any lot, parcel, or unit subject to a Mello–Roos special tax of the existence and maximum amount of such special tax using a statutorily prescribed form. California Civil Code Section 1102.6b requires that in the case of transfers other than those covered by the above requirement, the seller must at least make a good faith effort to notify the prospective purchaser of the special tax lien in a format prescribed by statute. Failure by an owner of the property to comply with the above requirements, or failure by a purchaser or lessor to consider or understand the nature and existence of the Special Tax, could adversely affect the willingness and ability of the purchaser or lessor to pay the Special Tax when due.
Parity Taxes and Special Assessments
The ability or willingness of a property owner in the District to pay the Special Tax could be affected by the existence of other taxes and assessments imposed upon the property. The Special Tax and any penalties thereon will constitute a lien against the lots and parcels of land on which they will be annually imposed until they are paid. Such lien is on a parity with all special tax and special assessments levied by other agencies and is co-equal to and independent of the lien for general property taxes, othe r special taxes, and certain special assessments regardless of when they are imposed upon the same property. The Special Tax has priority over all existing and future private liens imposed on the property. In addition, other public agencies whose boundar ies overlap those of the District could, with or in some circumstances without the consent of the owners of the land in the District, impose additional taxes or assessment liens on the property in the District in order to finance public improvements to be located inside or outside of the District.
The District has no control over the ability of other entities and districts to issue indebtedness secured by special tax or assessments payable from all or a portion of the property in the District. In addition, the City is not prohibited itself from establishing assessment districts, community facilities districts or other districts which might impose assessments or taxes against property in the District. In the event any additional improvements are financed pursuant to the establishment of an assessment district, community facilities district or other district, any taxes or assessments levied to finance such improvements will have a lien on a parity with the lien of the Special Tax. The imposition of additional liens on a parity with the Special Tax could reduce the ability or willingness of the property owners to pay the Special Tax and increase the possibility that foreclosure proceeds will not be adequate to pay delinquent Special Tax or the principal of and interest on the Bonds when due.
Depletion of Reserve Fund
The Reserve Fund is to be maintained at an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement. Money in said fund may be used to pay debt service on the Bonds in the event the proceeds of the levy and collec tion of the Special Tax against property in the District are insufficient. If funds in the Reserve Fund are used to pay debt service on the Bonds, the funds can be replenished from the proceeds of the levy and collection of the Special Tax that are in excess of the amount required to pay all amounts to be paid pursuant to the Indenture. However, no replenishment from the proceeds of a levy of the Special Tax can occur as long as the proceeds that are collected from the levy of the Special Tax at the maximum tax rates, together with other available funds, remain insufficient to pay all such amounts. Thus, it is possible that the Reserve Fund will be depleted by its use to pay such amounts and will not be replenished by the levy of the Special Tax. There is no assurance that the amount 376
47 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
in the Reserve Fund will, at any particular time, be sufficient to pay all such amounts or that any amounts of the Reserve Requirement used for debt service on the Bonds will be fully replenished from the proceeds of the levy and collection of the Special Tax.
Bankruptcy and Legal Delays
The payment of the Special Tax and the ability of the District to foreclose the lien of a delinquent unpaid tax, as discussed in “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS,” may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws generally affecting creditors’ rights or by the laws of the State of California relating to judicial foreclosure. In addition, the prosecution of a foreclosure action could be delayed due to crowded local court cal endars or delays in the legal process. The various legal opinions to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of the Bonds (including Bond Counsel’s approving legal opinion) will be qualified as to the enforceability of the various legal instruments by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights, by the application of equitable principles and by the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases.
Although bankruptcy proceedings would not ca use the obligation to pay the Special Tax to become extinguished, the bankruptcy of a property owner could result in a delay in prosecuting superior court foreclosure proceedings because federal bankruptcy laws may provide for an automatic stay of foreclos ure and sale of tax sale proceedings. Any such delays could increase the likelihood of a delay or default in payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds and the possibility of delinquent tax installments not being paid in full. Moreover, if the value of the subject property is less than the lien of the Special Tax, such excess could be treated as an unsecured claim by the bankruptcy court. Further, should remedies be exercised under the federal bankruptcy laws against Taxable Property, payment of the Special Tax may be subordinated to bankruptcy law priorities.
Thus, certain claims may have priority over the Special Tax in a bankruptcy proceeding even though they would not outside of a bankruptcy proceeding.
FDIC/Federal Government Interests In Properties
The ability of the District to collect interest and penalties specified by the Act and to foreclose the lien of delinquent Special Tax may be limited in certain respects with regard to parcels in which the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”), or other federal government entities such as Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, has or obtains an interest.
In the case of the FDIC, in the event that any financial institution making a loan which is secured by parcels is taken over by the FDIC and the applicable Special Tax is not paid, the remedies available to the District may be constrained. The FDIC’s policy statement regarding the payment of state and local real property taxes (the “Policy Statement”) provides that taxes other than ad valorem taxes which are secured by a valid lien in effect before the FDIC acquired an interest in a property will be paid unless the FDIC determines that abandonment of its interests is appropriate. The Policy Statement provides that the FDIC generally will not pay installments of non-ad valorem taxes which are levied after the time the FDIC acquires its fee interest, nor will the FDIC recognize the validity of any lien to secure payment except in certain cases where the Resolution Trust Corporation had an interest in property on or prior to December 31, 1995. Moreover, the Policy Statement provides that, with respect to parcels on which the FDIC holds a mortgage lien, the FDIC will not permit its lien to be foreclosed out by a taxing authority without its specific consent, nor will the FDIC pay or recognize liens for any penalties, fines or similar claims imposed for the non-payment of taxes.
The FDIC has taken a position similar to that expressed in the Policy Statement in legal proceedings brought against Orange County, California, in United States Bankruptcy Court and in Federal District Court.
The Bankruptcy Court issued a ruling in favor of the FDIC on certain of such claims. Orange County appealed that ruling, and the FDIC cross -appealed. On August 28, 2001, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a ruling favorable to the FDIC except with respect to the payment of pre-receivership liens based upon delinquent property tax.
377
48 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
The District is unable to predict what effect the application of the Policy Statement would have in the event of a delinquency with respect to parcels in which the FDIC has or obtains an interest, although prohibiting the lien of the FDIC to be foreclosed out at a judicial foreclosure sale would prevent or delay the foreclosure sale.
In the case of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, in the event a parcel of Taxable Property is owned by a federal government entity or federal government sponsored entity, such as Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, or in the event a private deed of trust secured by a parcel of Taxable Property is owned by a federal government entity or federal government sponsored entity, such as Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, the ability to foreclose on the parcel or to collect delinquent Special Tax may be limited. Federal courts have held that, based on the supremacy clause of the United States Constitution, in the absence of Congressional intent to the contrary, a state or local agency cannot foreclose to collect delinquent taxes or assessments if foreclosure would impair the federal government interest. This means that, unless Congress has otherwise provided, if a federal government entity owns a parcel of Taxable Property but does not pay taxes and assessments levied on the parcel (including the Special Tax), the applicable state and local governments cannot foreclose on the parcel to collect the delinquent taxes and assessments.
Moreover, unless Congress has otherwise provided, if the federal government has a mortgage interest in the parcel and the District wishes to foreclose on the parcel as a result of delinquent Special Tax, the property cannot be sold at a foreclosure sale unless it can be sold for an amount sufficient to pay delinquent taxes and assessments on a parity with the Special Tax and preserve the federal government’s mortgage interest.
The District’s remedies may also be limited in the case of delinquent Special Tax with respect to parcels in which other federal agencies (such as the Internal Revenue Service and the Drug Enforcement Administration) have or obtain an interest.
Geologic, Topographic and Climatic Conditions
The District, like all California communities, may be subject to unpredictable seismic activity, fires, flood, or other natural disasters. Southern California is a seismically active area. Seismic activity represents a potential risk for damage to buildings, roads, bridges and property within the District. In addition, land susceptible to seismic activity may be subject to liquefaction during the occurrence of such event.
Like all of Southern California, the land within the District is subject to seismic activity. The District is not located in a County Designated Fault Zone or an Earthquake Fault Zone Boundary. However, faults that have the potential to generate the strongest ground shaking in the F ontana area include the Cucamonga (thrust fault), the San Jacinto (strike -slip fault), and the San Andreas (strike -slip) fault. The Cucamonga fault is an active fault that crosses the northern portion of the City, trending northwest along the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains. The Lytle Creek Branch of the San Jacinto Fault is an active fault that crosses the extreme northeast portion of the City in a southeastern direction. There are several other faults that border the Lytle Creek alluvial basin, including the Chino, San Andreas and San Jacinto faults.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency has determined that the District is located in a Zone “X” flood area (an area determined to be outside of the 0.2 percent annual chance floodplain), and flood insura nce will not be required.
In recent years, wildfires have caused extensive damage throughout the State. In some instances, entire neighborhoods have been destroyed. Several of the fires that occurred in recent years damaged or destroyed property in areas that were not previously considered to be at risk from such events. The last major wildfire in the vicinity of the City was the Grand Prix Fire in October 2003. There have been smaller fires, such as the 147- acre Sierra Fire that burned in November 2018 and the 277-acre Karen Fire in July 2020. Per the City’s General Plan and Zoning Map, the District is located within a local responsibility area that is contiguous to a very high fire hazard area.
378
49 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
Some commentators believe that climate change will lead t o even more frequent and more damaging wildfires in the future. Property damage due to wildfire could result in a significant decrease in the market value of property in the District and in the ability or willingness of property owners to pay the Special Tax.
In the event of a severe earthquake, fire, flood or other natural disaster, there may be significant damage to both property and infrastructure in the District. As a result, a substantial portion of the property owners may be unable or unwilling to pay the Special Tax when due. In addition, the value of land in the District could be diminished in the aftermath of one or more of such events, reducing the resulting proceeds of foreclosure sales in the event of delinquencies in the payment of the Special Tax.
Hazardous Substances
While governmental taxes, assessments, and charges are a common claim against the value of a parcel of Taxable Property, other less common claims may be relevant. One example is a claim with regard to a hazardous substance.
In general, the owners and operators of a parcel of Taxable Property may be required by law to remedy conditions of the parcel 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 l aws, the owner (or operator) is obligated to remedy a hazardous substance condition of property whether or not the owner (or operator) has anything to do with creating or handling the hazardous substance. The effect, therefore, should any of the Taxable Property be affected by a hazardous substance is to reduce the marketability and value of the parcel by the costs of remedying the condition, because the purchaser, upon becoming owner, will become obligated to remedy the condition just as is the seller. F urther, 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 affect the value of the property that is realizable upon a delinquency and foreclosure.
While the District is not aware that the owner (or operator) of any of Taxable Property has such a current liability with respect to any of the Taxable Property, it is possible that such liabilities do currently exist and that the District is not aware of them. Lennar Homes has also represented to the District that it is not aware of any substances currently classified as hazardous by the federal government or the State located on its property within the District.
Further, it is possible that liabilities may arise in the future with respect to any of the Taxable Property resulting from the existence, currently, on the parcel of a substance presently classified as hazardous but which has not been released or the release of which is not presently threatened, or may arise in the future resulting from the existence, currently, on the parcel of a substance not presently classified as hazardous but which may in the future be so classified. 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 affect the value of a parcel of Taxable Property that is realizable upon a delinquency.
No Acceleration Provision
The Indenture does not contain a provision allowing for the acceleration of the Bonds in the event of a payment default or other default under the terms of the Bonds or the Indenture.
Bonds Are Limited Obligations
Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the District (except to the limited extent set forth in the Indenture), the City, the State or any political subdivision thereof is pledged to the payment of the Bonds or any Additional Bonds. The Bonds are limited obligations of the District; and, except as provided in the 379
50 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
Indenture, they are payable solely from Net Special Tax Revenues and the other assets pledged therefore under the Indenture. Net Special Tax Revenues could be insufficient to pay debt service on the Bonds as a result of delinquencies in the payment of the Spe cial Tax or the insufficiency of proceeds derived from the sale of land within the District following a delinquency in the payment of the applicable Special Tax. The District has no obligation to pay debt service on the Bonds in the event of insufficient Net Special Tax Revenues, except to the extent that money is available for such purpose in the Reserve Fund. The District’s only obligation with respect to delinquent Special Tax is to pursue judicial foreclosure proceedings under the circumstances described in the Indenture. See “SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS — Covenant for Superior Court Foreclosure.”
Loss of Tax Exemption
As discussed under “TAX MATTERS,” interest on the Bonds could become includable in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation retroactive to the date of issuance, as a result of acts or omissions of the District subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds in violation of the District’s covenants with respect to the Bonds.
Should interest become includable in gross income, the Bonds are not subject to redemption by reason thereof and will remain outstanding until maturity or unless earlier redeemed pursuant to optional or mandatory redemption or redemption upon prepayment of the Special Tax.
Potential Early Redemption of Bonds from Special Tax Prepayments Property owners within the District are permitted to prepay their Special Tax at any time. Such payments will result in a mandatory redemption of Bonds from Special Tax prepayments on the Interest Payment Date for which timely notice may be given under the Indenture following the receipt of such Special Tax prepayment. The resulting redemption of Bonds purchased at a price greater than par could reduce the otherwise expected yield on such Bonds. See “THE BONDS — Redemption — Mandatory Redemption from Special Tax Prepayments.”
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 t o gain unauthorized access to the City’s digital systems for the purposes of misappropriating assets or information or causing operational disruption and damage. To date, the City has not experienced an attack on its computer operating systems which resul ted in a breach of its cybersecurity systems that are in place. 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.
In May 2021, a public facing web server of the City that was responsible for building permit and inspection scheduling was compromised. The system contained vendor and database account credentials that were promptly changed. An investigation revealed that the credentials had not been used since the compromise and that changing the credentials prevented any further unauthorized access. All traces of the compromise were removed. Mitigation measures, including a web application firewall and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) decryption, were put into place to prevent future compromises and additional prevention measures have been implemented.
No data was lost and no damage to any systems, financial or otherwise, occurred. There were no costs associated with remediation.
Impact of Economic Conditions on the Development in the District Certain events and factors which negatively affect the regional, State and national economies could have an adverse effect on the pace at which Lennar Homes is able to complete and sell homes and demand by and the 380
51 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
ability of individuals to purchase homes within the District. Such events and factors could include rising inflation and interest rates, persistent supply chain issues, further impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and global market instability caused by the war in Ukraine. Any adverse impact of the foregoing and other economic factors on the projects in the District and the real estate market in general cannot be predicted.
Amid an unexpected run on deposits, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) announced on March 10, 2023 that it h ad been appointed as receiver for Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”), a large California bank and the 16th largest bank in the United States, and was liquidating SVB as a going concern.
Additionally, on March 12, 2023, the FDIC announced that it had been appointed as receiver for Signature Bank, another large regional bank. However, the United States Treasury Department, the Federal Reserve and the FDIC issued a joint statement that all deposits at both institutions would be honored, regardless of dollar amount.
On March 26, 2023, First Citizens BancShares announced that it would acquire SVB. On May 1, 2023, the FDIC announced that it had been appointed as receiver for First Republic Bank and reached a purchase and assumption agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, to assume all of the deposits and substantially all of the assets of First Republic Bank. Due to the failures of SVB, Signature Bank, and First Republic Bank, there has been uncertainty and concern in the financial markets that there may be additional bank liquidity issues.
Lennar Homes expects to use internally generated funds (which may include home sales proceeds and funding from its parent company, Lennar Homes Homes) to complete its development in the District. However, the uncertainty in the financial markets may affect homebuyers’ willingness or ability to obtain financing for the purchase of new homes within the District, which, in turn, could impact Lennar Homes’ ability or determination to complete its development in the D istrict in the budget and timeframe described herein. See “PROPERTY OWNERSHIP AND THE DEVELOPMENT.”
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
Pursuant to a Continuing Disclosure Agreement (the “District Continuing Disclosure Agreement”) with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, in its capacity as Trustee and in its capacity as dissemination agent, the District has agreed to provide, or cause to be provided, to the Electronic Municipal Market Access System of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board, which can be fo und on the Internet at www.emma.msrb.org (“EMMA”), on an annual basis certain financial information and operating data concerning the District. The District has further agreed to provide notice to EMMA of certain listed events. The District’s covenants have been made in order to assist the Underwriter in complying with the Rule.
The District has not previously entered into any undertaking with respect to the Rule. However, the City, as well as the Fontana Public Financing Authority (the “Authority”), the Fontana Public Facilities Financing Authority (the “Facilities Authority”), the Successor Agency to the Fontana Redevelopment Agency (the “Successor Agency”) and various community facilities districts within the City (each, a “CFD”), all of which are entities with the City Council as the legislative body, have entered into numerous continuing disclosure undertakings.
Except as described below, within the last five years, the City and its related entities have complied in all material respects with its unde rtakings under the Rule: (i) t he Authority and the Facilities Authority with respect to their respective bond issues and 12 CFDs with respect to each such CFD’s bond issue(s) filed the City’s Fiscal Year 2019-20 audited financial statements late and failed to file unaudited financial statements on or before the deadlines therefore; (ii) 12 CFDs with respect to each such CFDs’ bond issue(s) and the Facilities Authority with respect to its bond issues filed unaudited financial statements for Fiscal Year 2020-21 but did so after the deadline for meeting those continuing disclosure obligations; the audited financial statement s were subsequently filed to EMMA when they became available; (iii) the Successor Agency with respect to its bonds filed unaudited financial statements for Fiscal Year 2020-21 prior to the deadline therefore and posted audited financial statements when such document became available; (iv) the Successor Agency with respect to its bonds filed its Fiscal Year 2022 audited financial statements late and failed to file unaudited financial statements on or 381
52 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
before the deadline therefore; (v) with respect to its Fiscal Year 2021-22 disclosure, the Facilities Authority filed unaudited financial information when its audited financial statements were not available, but such filing excluded certain required information typically included in audited financial statements; the Fiscal Year 2021-22 audited financial statements were subsequently posted to EMMA when they became available; (vi) a CFD failed to file one annual report for one issue of bonds for which the official statement relating to such bonds contained all of the information required to be contained in such report ; (vii) the Facilities Authority with respect to two bond issues filed the City’s Fiscal Year 2022-23 audited financial statements six days late and failed to file unaudited financial statements on or before the deadlines therefor; and (viii) the District is aware that not all of the required information was included with respect to a number of annual report filings by the City, the Authority, the Successor Agency and several CFDs, including required tabular information; The City has since made filings on behalf of itself and its related entities to correct material omissions with respect to the filings that were required to have been made within the past five years and has adopted written procedures to ensure future compliance with the City’s disclosure undertakings and those of its related entities.
Except as disclosed in this Official Statement, within the last five years, the City, the Successor Agency, the Facilities Authority and the Authority have not failed to timely comply with their respective prior continuing disclosure obligations under the Rule in all material respects. The full text of the form of the District Continuing Disclosure Agreement is set forth in Appendix G.
TAX MATTERS
In the opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Bond Counsel to the District (“Bond Counsel”), based upon an analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions, and assuming, among other matters, the accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain covenants, interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes. Bond Counsel is of the further opinion that interest on the Bond s is not a specific preference item for purposes of the federal individual alternative minimum tax. Bond Counsel observes that interest on the Bonds included in adjusted financial statement income of certain corporations is not excluded from the federal c orporate alternative minimum tax.
Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any other tax consequences related to the ownership or disposition of, or the amount, accrual or receipt of interest on, the Bonds. A complete copy of the proposed form of opinion of Bond Counsel is set forth in APPENDIX D hereto.
To the extent the issue price of any maturity of the Bonds is less than the amount to be paid at maturity of such Bonds (excluding amounts stated to be interest and payable at least annually over the t erm of such Bonds), the difference constitutes “original issue discount,” the accrual of which, to the extent properly allocable to each Beneficial Owner thereof, is treated as interest on the Bonds which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and exempt from State of California personal income taxes. For this purpose, the issue price of a particular maturity of the Bonds is the first price at which a substantial amount of such maturity of the Bonds is sold to the public (excluding bond houses, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers). The original issue discount with respect to any maturity of the Bonds accrues daily over the term to maturity of such Bonds on the basis of a constant interest rate compounded semiannually (with straight -line interpolations between compounding dates). The accruing original issue discount is added to the adjusted basis of such Bonds to determine taxable gain or loss upon trade or business disposition (including sale, redemption, or payment on maturity) of such Bonds. Beneficial Owners of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of ownership of Bonds with original issue discount, including the treatment of Beneficial Owners who do not purchase such Bonds in the original offering to the public at the first price at which a substantial amount of such Bonds is sold to the public.
Bonds purchased, whether at original issuance or otherwise, for an amount higher than their principal amount payable at maturity (or, in some cases, at their earlier call date) (“Premium Bonds”) will be treated as 382
53 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
having amortizable bond premium. No deduction is allowable for the amortizable bond premium in the case of bonds, like the Premium Bonds, the interest on which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. However, the amount of tax-exempt interest received, and a Beneficial Owner’s basis in a Premium Bond, will be reduced by the amount of amortizable bond premium properly allocable to such Beneficial Owner.
Beneficial Owners of Premium Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the proper treatment of amortizable bond premium in their particular circumstances.
The Code imposes various restrictions, conditions and requirements relating to the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on obligations such as the Bonds. The District has made certain representations and covenanted to comply with certain restrictions, conditions and requirements designed to ensure that interest on the Bonds will not be included in federal gross income. Inaccuracy of these representations or failure to comply with these covenants may result in interest on the Bonds being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes, possibly from the date of original issuance of the Bonds. The opinion of Bond Counsel assumes the accuracy of these representations and compliance with these covenants.
Bond Counsel has no t undertaken to determine (or to inform any person) whether any actions taken (or not taken), or events occurring (or not occurring), or any other matters coming to Bond Counsel’s attention after the date of issuance of the Bonds may adversely affect the v alue of, or the tax status of interest on, the Bonds.
Accordingly, the opinion of Bond Counsel is not intended to, and may not, be relied upon in connection with any such actions, events or matters.
Although Bond Counsel is of the opinion that interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes, the ownership or disposition of, or the accrual or receipt of amounts treated as interest on, the Bonds may otherwise aff ect a Beneficial Owner’s federal, state or local tax liability. The nature and extent of these other tax consequences depends upon the particular tax status of the Beneficial Owner or the Beneficial Owner’s other items of income or deduction. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any such other tax consequences.
Current and future legislative proposals, if enacted into law, clarification of the Code or court decisions may cause interest on the Bonds to be subject, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, to federal income taxation or to be subject to or exempted from state income taxation, or otherwise prevent Beneficial Owners from realizing the full current benefit of the tax status of such interest. The introduction or enactment of any such legislative proposals or clarification of the Code or court decisions may also affect, perhaps significantly, the market price for, or marketability of, the Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding the pote ntial impact of any pending or proposed federal or state tax legislation, regulations or litigation, as to which Bond Counsel expresses no opinion.
The opinion of Bond Counsel is based on current legal authority, covers certain matters not directly addressed by such authorities, and represents Bond Counsel’s judgment as to the proper treatment of the Bonds for federal income tax purposes. It is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or the courts.
Furthermore, Bond Counsel cannot give and has not given any opinion or assurance about the future activities of the District, or about the effect of future changes in the Code, the applicable regulations, the interpretation thereof or the enforcement thereof by the IRS. The District has covenanted, however, to comply with the requirements of the Code.
Bond Counsel’s engagement with respect to the Bonds ends with the issuance of the Bonds, and, unless separately engaged, Bond Counsel is not obligated to defend the District or the Beneficial Owners regarding the tax-exempt status of the Bonds in the event of an audit examination by the IRS. Under current procedures, Beneficial Owners would have little, if any, right to participate in the audit examination process. Moreover, because achieving judicial review in connection with an audit examination of tax -exempt bonds is difficult, obtaining an independent review of IRS positions with which the District legitimately disagrees, may not be practicable. Any action of the IRS, including but not limited to selection of the Bonds for audit, or the course or result of such audit, or an audit of bonds presenting similar tax issues may affect the market price for, or the marketability of, the Bonds, and may cause the District or the Beneficial Owners to incur significant expense. 383
54 4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
Payments on the Bonds generally will be subject to U.S. information reporting and possibly to “backup withholding.” Under Section 3406 of the Code and applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations issued thereunder, a non-corporate Beneficial Own er of Bonds may be subject to backup withholding with respect to “reportable payments,” which include interest paid on the Bonds and the gross proceeds of a sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other disposition of the Bonds. The payor will be required to deduct and withhold the prescribed amounts if (i) the payee fails to furnish a U.S. taxpayer identification number (“TIN”) to the payor in the manner required, (ii) the IRS notifies the payor that the TIN furnished by the payee is incorrect, (iii) there has been a “notified payee underreporting” described in Section 3406(c) of the Code or (iv) the payee fails to certify under penalty of perjury that the payee is not subject to withholding under Section 3406(a)(1)(C) of the Code. Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be refunded or credited against a Beneficial Owner’s federal income tax liability, if any, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. Certain Beneficial Owners (including among others, corporations and certain tax-exempt organizations) are not subject to backup withholding.

Commencing with Fiscal Year 2022 -2023, and for each following Fiscal Year, the CFD Administrator shall determine the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities and shall provide for the levy of the Facilities Special Tax each Fiscal Year as follows:
First: The Facilities Special Tax shall be levied on each Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property in an amount equal to 100% of the applicable Assigned Facilities Special Tax; Second: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after the first step has been completed, the Facilities Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each Assessor’s Parcel of Undeveloped Property at up to 100% of the Maximum Facilities Special Tax for Undeveloped Property; Third: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after the first two steps have been completed, then the levy of the Facilities Special Tax on each Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property for which the Maximum Facilities Special Tax is determined through the application of the Backup Facilities Special Tax shall be increased in equal percentages from the Assigned Facilities Special Tax up to the Maximum Facilities Special Tax for each such Assessor’s Parcel; Fourth: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities after the first three steps have been completed, then the Facilities Special Tax shall be levied Propo rtionately on each Assessor’s Parcel of Taxable Public Property and Taxable Property Owner Association Property at up to 100% of the Maximum Facilities Special Tax for Taxable Public Property and Taxable Property Owner Association Property, as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities.
Notwithstanding the above, the CFD Administrator shall, in any Fiscal Year, calculate a levy Proportionately less than 100% of the Assigned Facilities Special Tax in step one (above), when (i) the CFD Administrator is no longer required to provide for the levy of the Facilities Special Tax pursuant to steps two through four above in order to meet the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities; and (ii) all authorized CFD No. 111 Bonds have already been issued or the Council has covenanted that it shall not issue any additional CFD No. 111 Bonds (except refunding bonds) to be supported by the Facilities Special Tax.
Further notwithstanding the above, under no circumstances shall the Facilities Special Tax levied in any Fiscal Year against any Assessor’s Parcel of Residential Property for which an occupancy permit for private residential use has been issued (in accordance with Section 53321(d)(3) of the California Government Code), be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owner of any other Assessor’s Parcel within CFD No. 111 by more than ten percent above the amount that would have been levied in that Fiscal Year had there never been any such delinquencies or defaults. To the extent that the levy of the Facilities Special Tax on Residential Property is limited by the provision in the previous sentence, the levy of the Facilities Special Tax on each Assessor’s Parcel of Non-Residential Property shall continue in equal percentages up to 100% of the applicable Maximum Facilities Special Tax.
2. Services Special Tax
Commencing with Fiscal Year 2022 -2023 and for each following Fiscal Year, the CFD Administrator shall determine the Special Tax Requirement for Services and shall provide for the levy o f the Services Special Tax 396

until the total Services Special Tax levy equals the Special Tax Requirement for Services. The Services Special Tax shall be levied each Fiscal Year as follows:
First: The Services Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately ea ch Fiscal Year on each Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property at up to 100% of the applicable Assigned Services Special Tax as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Services;
Second: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Services after the first step has been completed, then the levy of the Services Special Tax on each Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property shall be increased in equal percentages from the Assigned Services Special Tax up to the Maximum Ser vices Special Tax for each such Assessor’s Parcel.
E. EXEMPTIONS
1. Facilities Special Tax
No Facilities Special Tax shall be levied on up to 9.0 Acres of Public Property and/or Property Owner Association Property in CFD No. 111. Tax-exempt status shall b e assigned by the CFD Administrator in the chronological order in which property in CFD No. 111 becomes Public Property or Property Owner Association Property. However, should an Assessor’s Parcel no longer be classified as Public Property or Property Own er Association Property, it shall, from that point forward, be subject to the Facilities Special Tax.
Notwithstanding the above, an Assessor’s Parcel in CFD No. 111 that is transferred to a public agency or property owner’s association prior to the issuanc e of the first series of CFD No. 111 Bonds that causes the Acreage of Public Property and Property Owner Association Property to exceed the 9.0 Acreage limit that can be designated by the CFD Administrator under this Section E.1 shall also be exempted from paying the Special Tax.
Public Property or Property Owner Association Property that is not exempt from the Facilities Special Tax under this Section E.1 shall be subject to the levy of the Facilities Special Tax and shall be taxed Proportionately as part of the fourth step in Section D.1 herein, at up to 100% of the applicable Maximum Facilities Special Tax for Taxable Public Property and Property Owner Association Property.
In addition, no Facilities Special Tax shall be levied on Lower Income Households Welfare Exemption Property, provided that if, in any Fiscal Year, applicable law does not require that an Assessor’s Parcel that is Lower Income Households Welfare Exemption Property be exempt from the Facilities Special Tax, then the Facilities Special Tax shall be levied on such Assessor’s Parcel in accordance with this Rate and Method of Apportionment as if such Assessor’s Parcel were not classified as Lower Income Households Welfare Exemption Property.
2. Services Special Tax
No Services Special Tax shall be levied on Undeveloped Property, Taxable Public Property, Taxable Property Owner Association Property, Public Property, or Property Owner Association Property.
In addition, no Services Special Tax shall be levied on Lower Income Households Welfare Exemption Property, provided that if, in any Fiscal Year, applicable law does not require that an Assessor’s Parcel that is Lower Income Households Welfare Exemption Property be exempt from the Services Special Tax, then the Services Special Tax shall be levied on such Assessor’s Parcel in accordance with this Rate and Method of Apportionment as if such Assessor’s Parcel were not classified as Lower Income Households Welfare Exemption Property. 397

4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041
F. MANNER OF COLLECTION
The Special Tax shall be collected in the same manner and at the same time as ordinary ad valorem property taxes; provided, however, that CFD No. 111 may directly bill the Special Tax, and/or may collect Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to me et financial obligations, and, to the extent of the Facilities Special Tax, may covenant to foreclose and may actually foreclose on delinquent Assessor’s Parcels.
G. APPEALS AND INTERPRETATIONS
Any landowner or resident who feels that the amount of the Spe cial Tax levied on his/her Assessor’s Parcel is in error may submit a written appeal to the CFD Administrator, provided that the appellant is current in his/her payment of Special Taxes. During the pendency of an appeal, all Special Taxes previously levied must be paid on or before the payment date established when the levy was made. The CFD Administrator shall review the appeal, meet with the appellant if the CFD Administrator deems necessary, and advise the appellant of its determination. If the CFD Administrator agrees with the appellant, a cash refund shall not be made (except for the last year of levy), but the amount of the Special Tax levied shall be appropriately modified through an adjustment to the Special Tax levy in the following Fiscal Year. If the CFD Administrator disagrees with the appellant and the appellant is dissatisfied with the determination, the appellant then has 30 days in which to appeal to the Council by filing a written notice of appeal with the City Clerk, provided that the ap pellant is current in his/her payment of Special Taxes. This second appeal must specify the reasons for its disagreement with the CFD Administrator’s determination.
The CFD Administrator shall interpret this Rate and Method of Apportionment for purposes o f clarifying any ambiguity and make determinations relative to the annual administration of the Special Tax and any landowner or resident appeals. Any decision of the CFD Administrator shall be subject to appeal to the Council whose decision shall be final and binding as to all persons.
H. PREPAYMENT OF FACILITIES SPECIAL TAX
Under this Rate and Method of Apportionment, an Assessor’s Parcel within CFD No. 111 is permitted to prepay the Facilities Special Tax. The obligation of the Assessor’s Parcel to pay the Facilities Special Tax may be fully or partially prepaid and permanently satisfied as described herein, provided that a prepayment may be made only for Assessor’s Parcels of Developed Property, or for an Assessor’s Parcel of Undeveloped Property for which a building permit has been issued after January 1, 2022, and only if there are no delinquent Special Taxes with respect to such Assessor’s Parcel at the time of prepayment. An owner of an Assessor’s Parcel intending to prepay the Facilities Special Tax obligation shall provide the CFD Administrator with written notice of intent to prepay. Within 30 days of receipt of such written notice, the CFD Administrator shall notify such owner of the prepayment amount for such Assessor’s Parcel. The CFD Admini strator may charge such owner a reasonable fee for providing this service.

Bond Redemption Amount
plus Redemption Premium
plus Future Facilities Amount
plus Defeasance Amount
plus Administrative Fees and Expenses
less Reserve Fund Credit
less Capitalized Interest Credit
Equals Facilities Special Tax Prepayment Amount
As of the proposed date of prepayment, the Facilities Special Tax Prepayment Amount shall be calculated according to the following paragraphs:
1. Confirm that no Special Tax delinquencies apply to such Assessor’s Parcel.
2. For Assessor’s Parcels of Developed Property, compute the Assigned Facilities Special Tax and Backup Facilities Special Tax for the Assessor’s Parcel to be prepaid. For Assessor’s Parcels of Undeveloped Property for which a building permit has been issued after January 1, 2022, compute the Assigned Facilities Special Tax and Backup Facilities Special Tax for that Assessor’s Parcel as though it was already designated as Developed Property, based upon the building permit which has already been issued for such Assessor’s Parcel.
3. (a) Divide the Assigned Facilities Special Tax computed pursuant to paragraph 2 by the total estimated Assigned Facilities Special Tax levy for CFD No. 111 based on the Assigned Facilities Special Taxes for Developed Proper ty which could be levied on all expected development assuming Buildout of CFD No. 111, excluding any Assessor’s Parcels for which the Facilities Special Tax has been prepaid, and
(b) Divide the Backup Facilities Special Tax computed pursuant to paragraph 2 by the total estimated Backup Facilities Special Taxes at Buildout for the entire CFD No. 111, excluding any Assessor’s Parcels for which the Facilities Special Tax has been prepaid. 399
A-14
4866-7424-2209v4/022777-0041

5. Multiply the Bond Redemption Amount computed pursuant to paragraph 4 by the applicable redemption premium (e.g., the redemption price minus 100%), if any, on the Previously Issued Bonds to be redeemed (the “Redemption Premium”).
6. Compute the current Future Facilities Costs.
7. Multiply the larger quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 3(a) or 3(b) by the amount determined pursuant to paragraph 6 to compute the amount of Future Facilities Costs to be prepaid (the “Future Facilities Amount”).
8. Compute the amount needed to pay interest on the Bond Redemption Amount from the first bond interest and/or principal payment date following the current Fiscal Year until the redemption date for the Previously Issued Bonds specified in the report of the Facilities Special Tax Prepayment Amount.
9. Determine the Facilities Special Tax levied on the Assessor’s Parcel in the current Fiscal Year which has not yet been paid.
10. Compute the minimum amount the CFD Administrator reasonably expects to derive from the reinvestment of the Facilities Special Tax Prepayment Amount, less any interest earnings attributed to the Future Facilities Amo unt, and less any interest earnings attributed to the Administrative Fees and Expenses (defined below) from the date of prepayment until the redemption date for the Previously Issued Bonds to be redeemed with the prepayment.
11. Add the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 8 and 9 and subtract the amount computed pursuant to paragraph 10 (the “Defeasance Amount”).
12. The administrative fees and expenses of CFD No. 111 are as calculated by the CFD Administrator and include the costs of computation of the prepayment, the costs to invest the prepayment proceeds, the costs of redeeming CFD No. 111 Bonds, and the costs of recording any notices to evidence the prepayment and the redemption (the “Administrative Fees and Expenses”).
13. The reserve fund credit (the “Reserve Fund Credit”) shall equal the lesser of: (a) the expected reduction in the reserve requirement (as defined in the Indenture), if any, associated with the redemption of Previously Issued Bonds as a result of the prepayment, or (b) the amount derived by subtracting the new reserve requirement (as defined in the Indenture) in effect after the redemption of Previously Issued Bonds as a result of the prepayment from the balance in the reserve fund on the prepayment date, but in no event shall such amount be less than zero. No Reserve Fund Credit shall be granted if the amount then on deposit in the reserve fund for the Previously Issued Bonds is below 100% of the reserve requirement (as defined in the Indenture).
14. If any capitalized interest for the Previously Issued Bonds will not have been expended as of the date immediately following the first interest and/or principal payment following the current Fiscal Year, a capitalized interest credit shall be calculated by multiplying the larger quotien t computed pursuant to paragraph 3(a) or 3(b) by the expected balance in the capitalized interest fund or account under the Indenture after such first interest and/or principal payment date (the “Capitalized Interest Credit”).

GENERAL INFORMATION CONCERNING
THE CITY OF FONTANA
This appendix sets forth general information about the City of Fontana (“Fontana”) including information with respect to its finances. The following information concerning Fontana, the County of San Bernardino (the “County”) and the State of California (the “State”) are included only for general background purposes. The Bonds are not o bligations of the City, County or State or any political subdivision thereof and neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the City, County or the State, or any political subdivision thereof, is pledged to the payment of the Bonds or any Additional Bonds.
General
The City of Fontana encompasses approximately 42.4 square miles of land and has an estimated population in 2023 of approximately 213,851. The City is located 50 miles east of Los Angeles, and approximately 10 miles west of the cities of Riverside and San Bernardino. Founded in 1913, Fontana is the second largest city in San Bernardino County, and the 20th largest in the State. The Riverside-San Bernardino area is often referred to as Southern California’s “Inland Empire.” As one of th e cities in the Inland Empire, Fontana is part of a region whose population base exceeds 4.4 million people.
The earliest recorded landowner in the Fontana area was Don Antonio Maria Lugo, who received a land grant in 1813. A second grant, in 1842, secured the land known as Rancho de San Bernardino for his sons. The Lugo sons sold a portion of their land, which included part of what is now Fontana, to a group of Mormon settlers in 1851. The Mormon settlers eventually returned to Salt Lake City, and the S emi-Tropical Land & Water Company gained control of the Rancho. Active development of the area, however, did not begin until the early 1900’s when the Fontana Development Company acquired the acreage and began a community called Rosena - a name that was changed to Fontana in 1913.
Fontana quickly became a diversified agricultural area, with citrus, grain, grapes, poultry, and swine being the leading agricultural commodities. The community faced a transition beginning in 1942 when the Fontana area was selected as the site for a steel mill. Fontana incorporated in 1952 and the area became Southern California’s leading producer of steel and steel related products.
The steel industry dominated the City’s economy from the time the mill was built until the mid-1980’s.
In the late 1970’s, however, Kaiser Steel began to cut down on production and manpower, and the steel mill closed in 1984. The mill site, located outside of City limits, is in the process of being developed into an integrated community of transportation-related industrial, commercial and business park uses to take advantage of the site’s excellent highway and rail access. The plate steel and rolling mill plant was acquired by California Steel Industries, which continues to produce steel products. In addition, railroad and trucking operations and a number of industrial facilities and warehousing/distribution centers are located in Fontana because of its convenient geographical location and excellent transportation network.
City Government
The City was incorporated as a general law city in 1952 and is governed by a Mayor and four council members elected by geographical district to serve four -year terms. The City operates under the Council - Manager form of government. Effective July 1, 2008, the F ontana City Council established the Fontana Fire Protection District, which is governed by the same members who comprise the City Council, and which provides fire and related services to the City and certain adjacent unincorporated areas by means of contract with the San Bernardino County Fire Department. The City Council appoints the City Manager who is responsible for the day-to-day administration of City business and the coordination of all departments of the City. 407
