Receive and File the 2024 Indio Police Department Annual Military Equipm... Page 82 of 252 4 On September 30, 2021, the Governor of California approved Assembly Bill 481, requiring law enforcement agencies to obtain approval from the applicable governing body (Mayor and City Council), by adopting a military equipment use policy. The Indio Police Department is required to seek City Council approval of their Military Equipment Use Policy at a regular open meeting prior to taking certain actions relating to the funding, acquisition, and use of military equipment.

It is important to note that “military equipment” is now a defined term under state law, and it does not necessarily mean that IPD acquired or purchased its equipment from the military.

Nor does it mean that the equipment we have is of the type used by the military. None of the equipment listed in the inventory was obtained from the military but rather was purchased from law enforcement vendors. For example, military equipment as defined by state law includes IPD foundational equipment such as patrol rifles, and some of our less lethal tools. Rifles, for example, allow peace officers to address lethal threats from a greater distance and with greater precision.

Other items that are now considered “military equipment” include, but are not limited to, unmanned aerial or ground vehicles, armored vehicles, command and control vehicles, pepper balls, less lethal 40mm projectile launchers, and flashbangs. This equipment, now deemed to be “military equipment” by AB 481, is used as a component of overall best practices for law enforcement agencies throughout the country, including IPD, to specifically reduce risk to community members. These items provide peace officers with the ability to safely resolve volatile situations which otherwise might rise to the level of a lethal force encounter. These tools have been tested in the field and are used to enhance citizen safety and officer safety. The loss of these items would jeopardize the welfare of citizens and peace officers within the City of Indio.

Assembly Bill 481 requires the governing body to approve the funding, acquisition, and use of military equipment within its jurisdiction, only if it determines that the military equipment meets specified standards. The Military Equipment Use Policy is subject to City Council review to determine whether the standards set forth in Assembly Bill 481 have been met, based upon an Annual Military Equipment Use Report.

Assembly Bill 481 requires publication of the Military Equipment Use Policy and the Annual Military Equipment Use Report on the Department’s website.

Assembly Bill 481
California Government Code Section 7072 states the following:

A. A law enforcement agency that receives approval for a military equipment use policy pursuant to Section 7071 shall submit to the governing body an annual military equipment report for each type of military equipment approved by the governing body within one year of approval, and annually thereafter for as long as the military equipment is available for use. The law enforcement agency shall also make each annual military equipment report required by this section publicly available on its internet website for as long as the military equipment is available for use. The annual military equipment report shall, at a minimum, include the following information for the immediately preceding calendar year for each type of military equipment:

1. A summary of how the military equipment was used and the purpose of its use.

2. A summary of any complaints or concerns received concerning the military equipment.

3. The results of any internal audits, any information about violations of the military equipment use policy, and any actions taken in response.

4. The total annual cost for each type of military equipment, including acquisition, personnel, training, transportation, maintenance, storage, upgrade, and other ongoing costs, and from what source funds will be provided for the military equipment in the calendar year following submission of the annual military equipment report.

5. The quantity possessed for each type of military equipment.

6. If the law enforcement agency intents to acquire additional military equipment in the next year, the quantity sought for each type of military equipment.

B. Within 30 days of submitting and publicly releasing an annual military equipment report pursuant to this section, the law enforcement agency shall hold at least one well publicized and conveniently located community engagement meeting, at which the general public may discuss and ask questions regarding the annual military equipment report and the law enforcement agency’s funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment.

Receive and File the 2024 Indio Police Department Annual Military Equipm... Page 84 of 252 6 The Indio Police Department and Desert Regional SWAT Team possess and employ a wide variety of equipment to assist in safely achieving the furtherance of its mission. While the inventory of military equipment varies, the mere possession of the equipment does not warrant its use for every incident.

The Indio Police Department recognizes that critical incidents are unpredictable and can be very dynamic in nature. A variety of equipment options can greatly assist incident commanders, officers, and specific units in bringing those incidents to a swift resolution, in a safe manner. The use of military equipment is restricted to certain instances and in some cases only by certain units. The use of the Department’s military equipment is continuously evaluated and the use of such equipment by department personnel is influenced by the totality of the circumstances, public safety, officer safety, civil rights, state law, and information available at the time of use.

This Annual Military Equipment Use Report outlines a summary of our military equipment usage guidelines, inventory, fiscal impact, complaints, and reported concerns for calendar year 2024.

2. The Department' s inventory of military equipment is varied and the mere possession of the equipment does not warrant its use for every incident.

There may be instances wherein unpredictable critical incidents demand the need for incident commanders to authorize military equipment to be used in a manner not outlined within this procedure. In scrutinizing those particular instances, the judgment of the incident commander, influenced by the totality of the circumstances, public safety, officer safety, civil rights, and information available at the time, will be used.

It is incumbent upon incident commanders, supervisors, individual officers, and specific units to recognize the particular circumstances wherein military equipment should be employed to enhance the safety of the public and officers, and to bring a critical incident to a safe resolution. 708. 7 OVERSIGHT REGARDING DEPARTMENT COMPLIANCE
The Department SWAT TEAM Lieutenant ( designated military equipment coordinator) will ensure that all Department members comply with this policy and any individual Department policies as applicable.

STAFF REPORT

To: City Council
From: Bryan H. Montgomery, City Manager
Prepared by: Jonathan Nicks, Assistant City Manager
Subject: Draft Sustainability Plan and Work Plan 2025

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council approve the draft Sustainability Plan and Work Plan 2025

SUMMARY:

In 2020, the City Council formally charged the Sustainability Commission with developing a Sustainability through sustainability promotes and water current unifies that Plan initiatives conservation, renewable energy, waste reduction, climate action, and public education. The draft 2025 Sustainability Plan and Work Plan includes new sections on Local Risks and two additional focus areas: Outreach and Resiliency & Mitigation. Each chapter includes objectives, project ideas, achievements, and work plan elements. The Plan also highlights efforts that facilitate sustainability and includes an emphasis on community education reflecting the Commission’s commitment to engagement.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

The City of Indio’s Sustainability Commission was established in 2014 and held the first meeting in January 2015. In 2020, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1750, which formally outlined the duties of the Commission under §32.11 of the Indio Municipal Code. Among these responsibilities is the development and recommendation of a Sustainability Plan for adoption by the City Council. This Plan is intended to unify the City’s existing sustainability efforts, establish goals, and provide a long- term vision for promoting sustainability through water conservation, renewable resource use, climate action strategies, waste diversion, and community education.

The proposed 2025 Sustainability Plan and Work Plan features a newly expanded “Local Risks” section that integrates data and findings from the City’s 2024 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan.

Additionally, the Plan introduces a broader framework with two new focus areas: Outreach and Resiliency & Mitigation. Each chapter of the Plan outlines specific objectives, potential projects, work efforts sustainability incorporate to meant and It accomplishments. elements, plan is throughout the entire organization and highlights current initiatives that facilitate sustainability such as the Shop Local Program, Indio Lindo Beautification, and water conservation.

The Work Plan is meant to cover multiple years and includes ongoing and new projects. A central emphasis of the Plan is on community education and communication, reflecting the Sustainability Commission’s continued commitment to public engagement and awareness.

The City Council created the Sustainability C ommission in 2014, and the C ommission held the first meeting on February 23, 2015. Shortly after , the Commission created the following mission statement:

The Indio Sustainability Commission is dedicated to contributing to a clean and healthy environment, preserving cultural and historic resources , promoting community engagement and creating a thriving economy.

In 2020, The City Council approved Ordinance 1750 which included § 32.12 Sustainability Commission Establishment and Duties that specifically tasked the commission to develop and recommend for adoption by the City Council a Sustainability Plan. The Commissioners understood that sustainability is a vast and complex target, and that learning from experts is an important part of building sustainability programs and plans.

With that understanding there have been many distinguished speakers from different organizations throughout the course of the Commission meetings including the Coachella Valley Association of Governments, Electrify America, Global Green, students from Indio High School, SoCalGas, GRID Alternatives and CalRecycle.

The C ommission actively considers projects, grants, partnerships and policy recommendations that advance sustainability goals.

Draft Sustainability Plan and Work Plan 2025 (Sara Toyoda, Environmental... Page 161 of 252 2 Community and Sustainable Cities
This plan update underscores the commission’s commitment to communication as a fundamental principle of sustainability. Sustainability commissioners recognize that education and outreach are essential for strengthening the partnership between municipal programs and residents. Clear guidance, accessible resources, and effective education ensure that residents are aware of available programs and can fully participate. At the same time, residents play a vital role in driving changes through recycling, conservi ng energy and water, reducing waste, and supporting green initiatives.

City governments are uniquely positioned to advance sustainability by directly influencing key areas such as green spaces, tree canopies, waste management, and water conservation. Through supportive policies and infrastructure, including water -saving incentives, the Shop Local initiative, and the Indio Lindo beautification program, the city makes sustainable choices more accessible and impactful.

Sustainability is driven by small, everyday choices—turning off lights, reducing single-use plastics, conserving water, or shopping locally. While these actions may seem minor on their own, their collective impact is powerful. When individuals make sustainable choices, they drive demand for greener products, influence policy changes, and inspire others to do the same. Over time, these efforts add up, reducing carbon footprints, improving air quality, and preserving natural resources.

Education is central to this collaboration and should be a two-way dialogue. City outreach should include opportunity for resident feedback used to refine sustainability programs, ensuring they remain effective and relevant. Resident feedback is essential in prioritizing sustainability efforts, ensuring that initiatives align with the real needs and concerns of the community. Engaging directly with residents allows for a deeper understanding of local environmental challenges and helps shape more effective, equitable solutions.

Commissioners have advised that this year, the Plan should include a stronger focus on resident input and to more fully integrate this into future work plans. Without structured mechanisms to incorporate community perspectives, sustainability efforts risk overlooking key priorities or missing opportunities for greater impact. Moving forward, it is crucial to create meaningful pathways for resident voices to guide decision- making, ensuring that sustainability initiatives truly serve those they aim to benefit.

Lasting change depends on collective action. By working together, the city and its residents can reduce carbon footprints, improve air quality, and build a healthier, more resilient environment.

Draft Sustainability Plan and Work Plan 2025 (Sara Toyoda, Environmental... Page 162 of 252 3 Process
The commission began the process of developing a Sustainability Plan by considering other plans that have been developed for the City including the General Pl an 2040, Climate Action Plan and Complete Streets. These plans have been through robust public engagement and contain multiple actions that affect sustainability in Indio either directly or indirectly. The first Sustainability Plan was approved by City Council on October 5, 2023.

This plan lists possible projects to move toward sustainability and these projects are a mix of actions taken from these previous city plans and ideas discussed in the commission. Where actions are taken directly from previous plans that have been adopted by the city, a reference to that plan is included using the following notations:

CAP Climate Action Plan
GPU General Plan 2040
CS Complete Streets
TCC Transformative Climate Communities Plan
LHMP Local Hazard Mitigation Plan

New regulations that mandate food waste diversion, renewable energy standards and water conservation goals were also considered. Although these measures are mandated, they advance the city toward sustainability and require strategy, time and investment.

The Sustainability Commission recognizes that partnerships with other organizations working on similar initiatives enhances city efforts. This Plan is meant to compile sustainability efforts as well as provide goals and visions for a sustainable city.

Incorporating parallel efforts toward sustainability from outside entities is essential in understanding and incorporating new science and innovative solutions for sustainability .

The Commission follows and considers the work of many organizations including:

AB617 addresses air pollution impacts in environmental justice communities including the Eastern Coachella Valley (ECV). The ECV community produced the Community Emissions Reduction Plan in 2021.

Clean Cities Coachella Valley hosted by SunLine Transit Agency

C40 Cities provide information and showcase solutions that cities are implementing to limit climate change.

SB375 prompts California regions to work together to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from cars and light trucks.

Extreme Heat
Indio has been experiencing a progressive increase in the number of extreme heat days per year, with temperatures on those days often exceeding the local extreme heat threshold of 112.1°F. The heat, especially when combined with other aspects of Indio’s desert environment, pose significant risks to health, safety and infrastructure. The Local Hazard Mitigation Plan provides more in -depth information on extreme heat. “With temperatures soaring to sweltering levels for more than half of the year, Indio's residents must cope with the health risks posed by prolonged exposure to high heat. Furthermore, the limited precipitation throughout the year puts the city at risk of drought, potentially impacting water availability for essential needs. Additionally, the prevalence of high winds, particularly during certain months, poses a threat to the stability of structures and outdoor activities.” (Visyak, 202 3) Indio and surrounding areas comprise a unique urbanized desert area where increased heat is a critical local risk.

Page 9 of 31 ends

Draft Sustainability Plan and Work Plan 2025 (Sara Toyoda, Environmental... Page 166 of 252 7 Drought
Water resources are an important consideration, especially in a desert region. As climate change alters precipitation patterns, sustainable water becomes more and more critical.

This Plan includes a chapter on water resources however, more in depth water resource management can be found in the 2022 Indio Subbasin Water Management Plan Update and the 2018 Coachella Valley Integrated Regional Water Management and Stormwater Resource Plan. In Indio, water is a vital risk factor for sustainability.

Flood
Rain in the desert is always appreciated; however, local flood risks are a reality that requires consideration. The City of Indio experiences flooding challenges due to specific problem areas within its urban environment. These issues stem from the complex interaction between roadways, flood control channels, and stormwater drains, which complicates the management of runoff during heavy rainfall . (Visyak, 2023 ) As climate change affects weather patterns, heavy rain fall and periods of drought become less predictable and arrive more frequently. Air Quality Indio is located within the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) which is the agency responsible for improving air quality in parts of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency sets national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for some air pollutants and air quality districts must meet the standards or execute an approved plan to meet the standards within specific time frames.

Air Quality
The Coachella Valley meets most NAAQS however, this area Valley is in extreme nonattainment for the 1997 8- hour O zone standard of 0.08 ppm despite significant improvements over the years. Gas and diesel powered vehicles emit nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that mix with heat and sunlight to produce Ozone. Reducing vehicle emissions is an effective way to lower Ozone pollution, however, t he primary source of the ozone pollution detected in the Coachella Valley emanates from the South Coast Air Basin and is blown into the Valley by prevailing winds. (South Coast AQMD, 2020)

Draft Sustainability Plan and Work Plan 2025 (Sara Toyoda, Environmental... Page 167 of 252 8 Limitations of the Plan

Sustainability touches nearly every aspect of city operations and extends well beyond municipal boundaries. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) outline 17 interconnected global objectives, including ending poverty, ensuring quality education, and achieving zero hunger and this reflects the broad scope of sustainability.

Throughout the development of this Plan, Commissioners have explored a wide range of issues, including the unequal impacts of climate change, affordable housing, and the wellbeing of both wild and domesticated animals. While these are critical components of sustainability, this Plan remains intentionally focused to align with the Commission’s scope and priorities. As such, it does not provide recommendations for every sustainability-related issue.

However, this narrower focus does not constrain the City’s broader sustainability efforts.

Many of the topics raised by the Commission are being addressed through the City’s General Plan Update and other planning efforts. All City departments share both the opportunity and responsibility to pursue initiatives that advance sustainability across the community.

The commission considered outlines and information from several other sustainability and climate actions plans including the Los Angeles Green New Deal, Palm S prings Sustainability Plan and the Michigan Climate Action Plan A2Zero.

After careful consideration, the commission agreed on an outline that is very close to the Indio Climate Action Plan with five primary goals that organize the Plan, however, many of the projects can achieve more than one goal. Through the years, the commission identified an increasing importance in outreach and resiliency, and these are added to the goals in this update. The seven goals are:

1. Clean Energy

2. Low Greenhouse Gas Environment

3. Zero Waste

4. Water Resources

5. Sustainable Environment, Land Use and Transportation

6. Outreach

7. Resiliency and Mitigation
For each main goal, the Plan includes a chapter with information about objectives and projects. Accomplishments that the city has already made toward those goals are also included. Sustainability cannot be achieved through city efforts alone and there are many Indio residents who are involved in sustainability efforts . To increase these efforts, the plan also includes information on what residents can do to support the seven goals.

Objectives:

Promote water use efficiency and conservation efforts through outreach and incentives.

Work with regional water agency agencies for consistent conservation messaging throughout the Coachella Valley.

Mandates:

Making Conservation a California Way of Life Regulation

Effective January 1, 2025, t hese regulations apply to urban water suppliers such as the Indio Water Authority and aim to increase water efficiency and reduce the need for emergency water restrictions during droughts. It requires urban water suppliers to annually calculate and comply with urban water use objectives, carry out commercial, industrial and institutional performance measures and provide progress reports. The regulation is expected to reduce inefficient water use in the urban sector.

SB 555

Senate Bill 555 was adopted during a
drought in 2015 and requires urban retail
water suppliers like the Indio Water
Authority to complete water loss audits
that estimate how much water is lost from
the system through leaks or breaks.

Water suppliers can increase water
supply by reducing water loss. Individual
water loss standards have been
developed for each urban retailer and
those standards must be met by 2028.

Non-Functional Turf Bill AB1572

The bill was passed to reduce water
waste and promote water conservation.

This California law prohibits drinking
water from being used to irrigate non-

Draft Sustainability Plan and Work Plan 2025 (Sara Toyoda, Environmental... Page 180 of 252 21 The most direct connection between cities and sustainability can be seen through natural resources, such as water. The Indio Water Authority has the responsibility to provide clean, reliable and safe water as the city expands and maintain long term water supply. It is an especially complex task in a desert region. IWA does this through robust conservation programs and cooperation with other local water providers. The Indio Subbasin Annual Report highlights some of the planning that IWA and other regional water providers do in cooperation to ensure a long-term reliable water supply.

STAFF REPORT

To: Indio Electric Finance Authority
From: Bryan Montgomery, Executive Director
Prepared by: Miguel Ramirez-Cornejo, Dir. of Economic Development Subject: Financing Electric Indio the confirming No. Resolution Adopt 2025-03 Authority’s participation in the Statewide Community Infrastructure Program (SCIP) of the California Statewide Communities Development Authority.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the Board of Directors of the Indio Electric Financing Authority adopt Resolution Indio Authority’s Electric the Financing and amending 2025-03, No. restating participation in the Statewide Community Infrastructure Program (SCIP), thereby authorizing financing of IEFA Power Capacity Fees and related public capital improvements.

SUMMARY:

The Statewide Community Infrastructure Program (SCIP), administered by the California Statewide Communities property mechanism financing a for (CSCDA), Authority Development provides owners to fund required development fees and public infrastructure improvements through tax- exempt bonds. The City of Indio has participated in SCIP since 2017, most recently with SCIP Series 2023C-1 for the Northgate Crossings project ($1,625,000). The proposed Amended and Restated Resolution extends participation through the Indio Electric Financing Authority (IEFA), specifically enabling financing of IEFA Power Capacity Fees. This action reaffirms and expands the City’s improving financing, long-term low-cost, to with developers provide to ability access competitiveness and supporting new development.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

The California Statewide Communities Development Authority (CSCDA) is a joint powers authority sponsored by the League of California Cities and the California State Association of Counties. Over 530 cities, counties, and special districts are members. CSCDA created SCIP in 2002 to allow property owners to finance development impact fees and public improvements through pooled assessment district financing. SCIP has since expanded to include community facilities districts (CFDs) and public services financing. Since inception, over $1 billion in land-secured bonds have been issued. Indio joined SCIP in 2017. While the City is already a SCIP participant, the proposed resolution provides a financing pathway specifically for IEFA Power Capacity Fees. This ensures developers can finance significant upfront costs related to energy infrastructure while the IEFA and City continue to receive fee revenue. Participation is voluntary for property owners. If approved, CSCDA will handle district formation, bond issuance, and administration. Neither the City nor IEFA is financially liable for the repayment of SCIP bonds.

IEFA Resolution No. 2025-03, confirming the Indio Electric Financing Aut... Page 194 of 252 Section 7. The Authority has adopted Local Goals and Policies as required by Section 53312.7 of the Mello-Roos Act. The Agency approves the use of those Local Goals and Policies in connection with the formation of CFDs. The Agency hereby agrees that the Authority may act in lieu of the Agency under those Local Goals and Policies in forming and administering the CFDs.

Section 8. The Authority has prepared and will update from time to time the “SCIP Manual of Procedures” (the “Manual”), and the Agency will handle Fee revenues and funds for Improvements for properties participating in SCIP in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Manual.

Section 9. Pursuant to the Mello-Roos Act and this resolution, the Authority may conduct proceedings under the Mello-Roos Act to form the CFDs and to have such CFDs authorize the financing of (i) any or all of the facilities and Fees set forth on Exhibit C, attached hereto and (ii) any or all the Services set forth on Exhibit D, attached hereto. All of the facilities, whether to be financed directly or through Fees, shall be facilities that have an expected useful life of five years or longer and are facilities that the Agency or other local public agencies, as the case may be, are authorized by law to construct, own or operate, or to which they may contribute revenue. The appropriate officials and staff of the Agency are hereby authorized and directed to cooperate with the Authority and the Authority’s special tax consultant and other consultants to calculate the appropriate level of the special tax to fund the Services for each CFD in connection with initial formation and in connection with the annual levy. Exhibit C and Exhibit D may be modified from time to time by written agreement between an authorized representative of the Authority and of the Agency. The facilities are referred to herein as the “Improvements,” and the Improvements to be owned by the Agency are referred to as the “Agency Improvements.” The Fees paid or to be paid to the Agency are referred to as the “Agency Fees”. The Services funded are referred to as the “Agency Services”.

Section 10. For Improvements, Fees or Services to be owned, used or provided by another local agency (a “Third Party Local Agency”), the Authority will separately identify them in its proceedings and will enter into a joint community facilities agreement with such Third Party Local Agency as required by the Mello-Roos Act. Each joint community facilities agreement with each Third Party Local Agency will contain a provision that the Third Party Local Agency will provide indemnification to the Agency to the same extent that the Agency provides indemnification to the Third Party Local Agency under the terms of this resolution.

Section 11. The Agency acknowledges that Improvements and Fees will be funded through a CFD only if they are necessary to meet increased demands placed upon the Agency as a result of development occurring or expected to occur within the proposed CFD and Services will be funded through a CFD only if they are in addition to those provided in the territory of the CFD before the CFD was created and will not supplant existing services. In connection with the formation of each CFD, as may be required by the Authority’s procedures, the Agency shall certify that such requirements are satisfied in form and substance satisfactory to the Authority.

Section 12. The Authority shall promptly transfer special tax collections for Agency Services, after payment of its own reasonable administrative costs incurred in the administration of the CFDs, to the Agency. The Authority will apply the other special tax collections initially

Page 7 of 34 ends

IEFA Resolution No. 2025-03, confirming the Indio Electric Financing Aut... Page 195 of 252 as required by the documents under which any Local Obligations are issued; and thereafter, to the extent not provided in the Local Obligations documents, may pay its own reasonable administrative costs. The Authority will remit any special tax revenues from any particular CFD remaining after the final retirement of all related Local Obligations to the Agency and to the other local agencies in the proportions specified in the Authority’s proceedings. The Agency will apply any such special tax revenues it receives for authorized Agency Improvements, Agency Fees and/or Agency Services, as applicable, and its own administrative costs only as permitted by respective CFD proceedings and by the Mello-Roos Act. The joint community facilities agreements with each Third Party Local Agency must require the Third Party Local Agency to apply the special tax revenues they receive for their authorized Improvements, Fees and/or Services under the CFDs and for their own related administrative costs only as permitted by the Mello-Roos Act.

Section 13. The Authority will administer the CFDs, including employing and paying all consultants, annually levying the special tax and all aspects of paying and administering the Local Obligations, and complying with all State and Federal requirements appertaining to the proceedings, including the requirements of the United States Internal Revenue Code. The Agency will cooperate fully with the Authority in respect of the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and to the extent information is required of the Agency to enable the Authority to perform its disclosure and continuing disclosure obligations with respect to the Local Obligations and any revenue bonds, although the Agency will not participate in nor be considered to be a participant in the proceedings respecting the CFDs (other than as a party to the agreement embodied by this resolution) nor will the Agency be or be considered to be an issuer of the Local Obligations nor any revenue bonds. The Authority is required to obtain a provision equivalent to this paragraph in all joint community facilities agreements with each Third Party Local Agency.

Section 14. In the event the Authority completes issuance and sale of Local Obligations, and Local Obligation proceeds become available to finance the Improvements, the Authority shall establish and maintain a special fund for each development project (the “Acquisition and Construction Fund”). The portion of Local Obligation proceeds which is intended to be utilized to finance the Improvements and Fees shall be deposited in the Acquisition and Construction Fund. The Acquisition and Construction Fund will be available both for Agency Improvements and Agency Fees and for the Improvements and Fees pertaining to each Third Party Local Agency. Subaccounts shall be created as necessary.

Section 15. As respects the Authority and each Third Party Local Agency, the Agency agrees to fully administer, and to take full governmental responsibility for, the construction or acquisition of the Agency Improvements and for the administration and expenditure of the Agency Fees, as applicable, including but not limited to environmental review, approval of plans and specifications, bid requirements, performance and payment bond requirements, insurance requirements, contract and construction administration, staking, inspection, acquisition of necessary property interests in real or personal property, the holding back and administration of retention payments, punch list administration, and the Authority and each Third Party Local Agency shall have no responsibility in that regard. The Agency reserves the right, as respects each Participating Developer, to require the Participating Developer to contract with the Agency to assume any portion or all of this responsibility. The Authority is required to obtain provisions

Page 8 of 34 ends

IEFA Resolution No. 2025-03, confirming the Indio Electric Financing Aut... Page 196 of 252 equivalent to this paragraph in the joint community facilities agreement with each Third Party Local Agency.

Section 16. The Agency agrees to indemnify and to hold the Authority, its other members, and its other members’ officers, agents and employees, and each Third Party Local Agency and their officers, agents and employees (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) harmless from any and all claims, suits and damages (including costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of the design, engineering, construction and installation of the Agency Improvements and the improvements to be financed or acquired with the Agency Fees. The Agency reserves the right, as respects each Participating Developer, to require the Participating Developer to assume by contract with the Agency any portion or all of this responsibility. The Authority is required to obtain a provision equivalent to this paragraph in all joint community facilities agreements with each Third Party Local Agency naming the Agency and its officers, agents and employees as Indemnified Parties with respect to each Third Party Local Agency’s respective Improvements and the improvements to be constructed or acquired with each Third Party Local Agency’s Fees.

Section 17. As respects the Authority and each Third Party Local Agency, the Agency agrees – once the Agency Improvements are constructed according to the approved plans and specifications, and the Agency and the Participating Developer have put in place their agreed arrangements for the funding of maintenance of the Agency Improvements – to accept ownership of the Agency Improvements, to take maintenance responsibility for the Agency Improvements, and to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties to the extent provided in the preceding paragraph from any and all claims, etc., arising out of the use and maintenance of the Agency Improvements. The Agency reserves the right, as respects the Participating Developer, to require the Participating Developer by contract with the Agency to assume any portion or all of this responsibility. The Authority is required to obtain a provision equivalent to this paragraph in all joint community facilities agreements with each Third Party Local Agency naming the Agency and its officers, agents and employees as Indemnified Parties.

Section 18. The Agency acknowledges the requirement of the Mello-Roos Act that if the Agency Improvements are not completed prior to the adoption by the Commission of the Authority of the Resolution of Formation of the CFD for each respective development project, the Agency Improvements must be constructed as if they had been constructed under the direction and supervision, or under the authority of, the Agency. The Agency acknowledges that this means all Agency Improvements must be constructed under contracts that require the payment of prevailing wages as required by Section 1720 and following of the Labor Code of the State of California. The Authority makes no representation that this requirement is the only applicable legal requirement in this regard. The Agency reserves the right, as respects the Participating Developer, to assign appropriate responsibility for compliance with this paragraph to the Participating Developer.

Section 19. The form of the Acquisition Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B is hereby approved, and the Chair, Vice Chair, Executive Director, Secretary, Treasurer, or any other officer of the Agency (each, an “Authorized Officer”) is authorized to execute, and deliver to the Participating Developer, the Acquisition Agreement on behalf of the Agency in substantially that form, with such changes as shall be approved by the Authorized Officer after

Section 21. The Agency hereby consents to the formation of the CFDs in accordance with this resolution and consents to the assumption of jurisdiction by the Authority for the proceedings respecting the CFDs with the understanding that the Authority will hereafter take each and every step required for or suitable for consummation of the proceedings, the levy, collection and enforcement of the special tax, and the issuance, sale, delivery and administration of the Local Obligations, all at no cost to the Agency and without binding or obligating the Agency’s general fund or taxing authority.

Section 22. The terms of the Agreement embodied by this resolution may be amended by a writing duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Agency and the Authority, except that no amendment may be made after the issuance of the Local Obligations by the Authority that would be detrimental to the interests of the bondholders without complying with all of the bondholder consent provisions for the amendment of the bond resolutions, bond indentures or like instruments governing the issuance, delivery and administration of all outstanding Local Obligations.

Section 23. Except to the extent of the indemnifications extended to each Third Party Local Agency in the Agreement embodied by this resolution, and the Agency’s agreement to take responsibility for and ownership of the Agency Improvements, no person or entity, including the Participating Developer, shall be deemed to be a third party beneficiary of this resolution, and nothing in this resolution (either express or implied) is intended to confer upon any person or entity other than the Authority and the Agency (and their respective successors and assigns) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this resolution.

Upon completion of all of the Acquisition Improvements and the payment of all costs thereof, any remaining funds in the Acquisition and Construction Fund (less any amount determined by the Local Agency as necessary to reserve for claims against the account) (i) shall be applied to pay the costs of any additional Acquisition Improvements eligible for acquisition with respect to the Project as approved by the Authority and, to the extent not so used, (ii) shall be applied by the Authority [to call Bonds or to reduce Special Taxes as the Authority shall determine][as provided in Section 10427.1 of the Code to pay a portion of the assessments levied on the Project property in the District].

Section I.04. No Local Agency Liability; Local Agency Discretion; No Effect on Other Agreements. In no event shall any actual or alleged act by the Local Agency or any actual or alleged omission or failure to act by the Local Agency with respect to SCIP subject the Local Agency to monetary liability therefor. Further, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as affecting the Developer’s or the Local Agency’s duty to perform their respective obligations under any other agreements, public improvement standards, land use regulations or subdivision requirements related to the Project, which obligations are and shall remain independent of the Developer’s and the Local Agency’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

ARTICLE II

DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION AND ACQUISITION OF ACQUISITION IMPROVEMENTS Section II.01. Letting and Administering Design Contracts. The parties presently anticipate that the Developer has awarded and administered or will award and administer engineering design contracts for the Acquisition Improvements to be acquired from Developer. All eligible expenditures of the Developer for design engineering and related costs in connection with the Acquisition Improvements (whether as an advance to the Local Agency or directly to the design consultant) shall be reimbursed at the time of acquisition of such Acquisition Improvements. The Developer shall be entitled to reimbursement for any design costs of the Acquisition Improvements only out of the Acquisition Price as provided in Section

2.03 and shall not be entitled to any payment for design costs independent of or prior to the acquisition of Acquisition Improvements.

Section II.02. Letting and Administration of Construction Contracts; Indemnification. State law requires that all Acquisition Improvements not completed prior to the formation of the District shall be constructed as if they were constructed under the direction and supervision, or under the authority, of the Local Agency. In order to assure compliance with those provisions, except for any contracts entered into prior to the date hereof, Developer agrees to comply with any applicable requirements of the Local Agency with respect to the bidding and contracting for the construction of the Acquisition Improvements. The Developer agrees that all the contracts shall call for payment of prevailing wages as required by the Labor Code of the

IEFA Resolution No. 2025-03, confirming the Indio Electric Financing Aut... Page 210 of 252 State of California. The Developer’s indemnification obligation set forth in Section 3.01 of this Agreement shall also apply to any alleged failure to comply with the requirements of this Section, and/or applicable State laws regarding public contracting and prevailing wages.

Section II.03. Sale of Acquisition Improvements. The Developer agrees to sell to the Local Agency each Acquisition Improvement to be constructed by Developer (including any rights-of-way or other easements necessary for the Acquisition Improvements, to the extent not already publicly owned), when the Acquisition Improvement has been constructed and is complete to the satisfaction of the Local Agency for an amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) the Available Amount or (ii) the Actual Cost of the Acquisition Improvement. Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein, contains a list of the Acquisition Improvements. Portions of an Acquisition Improvement eligible for Installment Payments prior to completion of the entire Acquisition Improvement are described as eligible, discrete and usable portions in Exhibit A (each, an “Eligible Portion”). At the time of completion of each Acquisition Improvement, or Eligible Portion thereof, the Developer shall deliver to the Local Agency Engineer a written request for acquisition, accompanied by an Actual Cost Certificate, and by executed Title Documents for the transfer of the Acquisition Improvement where necessary. In the event that the Local Agency Engineer finds that the supporting paperwork submitted by the Developer fails to demonstrate the required relationship between the subject Actual Cost and eligible work, the Local Agency Engineer shall advise the Developer that the determination of the Actual Cost (or the ineligible portion thereof) has been disallowed and shall request further documentation from the Developer. If the further documentation is still not adequate, the Local Agency Engineer may revise the Actual Cost Certificate to delete any disallowed items and the determination shall be final and conclusive.

Certain soft costs for the Acquisition Improvements, such as civil engineering, may have been incurred pursuant to single contracts that include work relating also to the private portions of the Project. In those instances, the total costs under such contracts will be allocated to each Acquisition Improvement as approved by the Local Agency Engineer. Where a specific contract has been awarded for design or engineering work relating solely to an Acquisition Improvement, one hundred percent (100%) of the costs under the contract will be allocated to that Acquisition Improvement. Amounts allocated to an Acquisition Improvement will be further allocated among the Eligible Portions of that Acquisition Improvement, if any, in the same proportion as the amount to be reimbursed for hard costs for each Eligible Portion bears to the amount to be reimbursed for hard costs for the entire Acquisition Improvement. Costs will be allocated to each Acquisition Improvement as approved by the Local Agency Engineer. The costs of certain environmental mitigation required to mitigate impacts of the public and private portions of the Project will be allocated to each Acquisition Improvement as approved by the Local Agency Engineer.

In the event that the Actual Cost is in excess of the Available Amount, the Local Agency shall withdraw the Available Amount from the Acquisition and Construction Fund and transfer said amount to the Developer. In the event that the Actual Cost is less than the Available Amount, the Local Agency shall withdraw an amount from the Acquisition and Construction Fund equal to the Actual Cost, and shall transfer said amount to the Developer. Any amounts then remaining in the Acquisition and Construction Fund shall be applied as provided in Section 1.03.

Section II.04. Conditions Precedent to Payment of Acquisition Price. Payment to the Developer or its designee of the Acquisition Price for an Acquisition Improvement from the Acquisition and Construction Fund shall in every case be conditioned first upon the determination of the Local Agency Engineer, pursuant to Section 2.03, that the Acquisition Improvement satisfies all Local Agency regulations and ordinances and is otherwise complete and ready for acceptance by the Local Agency, and shall be further conditioned upon satisfaction of the following additional conditions precedent:
(a) The Developer shall have provided the Local Agency with lien releases or other similar documentation satisfactory to the Local Agency Engineer as evidence that none of the property (including any rights-of-way or other easements necessary for the operation and maintenance of the Acquisition Improvement, to the extent not already publicly owned) comprising the Acquisition Improvement, and the property which is subject to the [assessments/Special Taxes] of the District, is not subject to any prospective mechanics lien claim respecting the Acquisition Improvements.
(b) All due and payable property taxes, and installments of [assessments/Special Taxes] shall be current on property owned by the Developer or under option to the Developer that is subject to the lien of the District. (c) The Developer shall certify that it is not in default with respect to any loan secured by any interest in the Project.
(d) The Developer shall have provided the Local Agency with Title Documents needed to provide the Local Agency with title to the site, right-of-way, or easement upon which the subject Acquisition Improvements are situated. All such Title Documents shall be in a form acceptable to the Local Agency (or applicable governmental agency) and shall convey Acceptable Title. The Developer shall provide a policy of title insurance as of the date of transfer in a form acceptable to the Local Agency Engineer insuring the Local Agency as to the interests acquired in connection with the acquisition of any interest for which such a policy of title insurance is not required by another agreement between the Local Agency and the Developer. Each title insurance policy required hereunder shall be in the amount equal to or greater than the Acquisition Price.

Section II.05. SCIP Requisition. Upon a determination by the Local Agency Engineer to pay the Acquisition Price of the Acquisition Improvements pursuant to Section 2.04, the Local Agency Engineer shall cause a SCIP Requisition to be submitted to the Program Administrator. The Program Administrator will review the SCIP Requisition and forward it with instructions to the Authority Trustee and the Authority Trustee shall make payment directly to the Developer of such amount pursuant to the Authority Trust Agreement. The Local Agency and the Developer acknowledge and agree that the Authority Trustee shall make payment strictly in accordance with the SCIP Requisition and shall not be required to determine whether or not the Acquisition Improvements have been completed or what the Actual Costs may be with
