X. FINANCING DISTRICT REPORT REQUIREMENTS
A. GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT FINANCING DISTRICTS
1. FINANCING DISTRICTS SET-UP BY THE CITY OF LIVERMORE
The City of Livermore has set-up and administered several assessment districts to fund both the construction of capital improvements and the maintenance and replacement of these public facilities after they are constructed. Resolution 2009-005 approved City of Livermore Goals and Policies for Land Secured Financings and on October 12, 2015 the City Council authorized the use of Community Facility Districts to fund the maintenance of public infrastructure within or directly serving new residential and /or commercial development. Each type of district is governed by certain laws and must be set-up, maintained and annexed into following a certain procedure. Since laws frequently change it is important to always consult the City Attorney’s Office to determine the current laws to follow. Financing Districts are expensive to set-up and to administer so it is also important to determine if the staffing effort and cost is justified and the cost for both is recovered. The Planning Manager, City Engineer, Community Development Director, Finance Director, City Attorney, and City Manager may need to assist staff during the entitlement process in determining which financing district if any is an option.
2. STATEWIDE COMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTURE PROGRAM
The Statewide Community Infrastructure Program (SCIP) is a program administered by the California Statewide Communities Development Authority (CSCDA) that enables developers to fund impact fees and public infrastructure costs through the sale of municipal bonds. SCIP currently sells these bonds typically three times a year. If developers use this program, they work with both the CSCDA and the City of Livermore. The CSCDA sets-up the assessment districts and administers the program at no cost to the City of Livermore. Since the effort to apply to this program is relatively small this option is usually available to all developers. More information is available on the CSCDA website: CSCDA.org. SCIP provides financing for the Pre-Funding of Impact Fees Program, Reimbursement of Impact Fees Program and the Infrastructure Acquisition Program as described below.
a. Pre-Funding of Impact Fees Program
This program pre-funds the SCIP eligible development impact fees prior to the issuance of a building permit. Not all impact fees are SCIP eligible. The only development impact fees that will be eligible for prepayment under this program are:
City Storm Drain - On-site
City Storm Drain - Roadway
EXHIBIT A
295
City Sewer
City Water
Park Facilities
TIF - Transportation Impact Fee
TVTDF - Tri-Valley Transportation Development Fee
The remaining development fees that are not SCIP eligible must still be paid to the City prior to the issuance of the building permit.
b. Reimbursement of Impact Fees Program
This program will reimburse the developer for the SCIP eligible development impact fees after the building permit fees have been paid and the bonds have been sold. Bonds sold for the purpose of reimbursing impact fees need to be taxable bonds. Not all impact fees are SCIP eligible. The only development impact fees that will be eligible for reimbursement under this program are listed above in the pre-funding program.
c. Infrastructure Acquisition Program
This program will reimburse the developer for the construction of public improvements only, such as utilities, grading, paving, sidewalks, curbs, gutters, medians and landscape that will be public located in the public right- of-way. Reimbursements will not be available to the developer for these improvements until bonds are sold and the City accepts the improvements for permanent maintenance. Acceptance of improvements is a City Council action that takes place about two months after the City Inspector has notified Development Engineering in writing that all improvements are ready for acceptance. This program also requires an acquisition agreement between the CSCDA and the City for the public improvements. This agreement must be approved by City Council prior to the filing of the final map. It is imperative that developers keep good records of their construction expenses because they may need to provide supporting documentation to CSCDA to request reimbursements after the bond sale.
B. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING FINANCING DISTRICTS
Landscape and Lighting Act
The Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 authorizes assessments to install, construct, and maintain landscaping, lighting and park and recreation facilities. On November 5, 1996, the California voters enacted Proposition 218, titled the Right to Vote on Taxes Act, to amend the California Constitution and require public agencies to comply with new procedural and substantive requirements for the imposition of new or increased taxes. Proposition 218 applies to landscape maintenance district assessments.
EXHIBIT A
296
Since the Landscaping and Lighting Act was enacted prior to Proposition 218, and new and increased assessments must comply with Proposition 218, it is important to reconcile both statutory schemes, however the notice, hearing and protest provisions of the Omnibus Implementation Act supersede those requirements in existence on July 1, 1997.
The Proposition 218 Omnibus Implementation Act (“Omnibus Implementation Act”) which is set forth in Government Code Section 53750 et. seq. restates and supplements the procedural requirements of Proposition 218.
Special versus General Benefits
Landscape maintenance district assessments are authorized for certain improvements that provide special benefit to the assessed properties. Proposition 218 includes detailed procedures for the imposition of benefit assessments on real property. A benefit assessment or “special assessment” is a charge imposed on particular real property for a local public improvement of direct benefit to that property, such as a street improvement or lighting improvement. The rationale of a special assessment is that the assessed property has received a special benefit over and above that received by the general public. The general public should not be required to pay for special benefits for the few, and the few specially benefitted should not be subsidized by the general public.
An assessment in a defined area is known as an assessment district. Each assessment district must include all properties (or businesses) that will specially benefit from the improvements or services to be funded by the assessment.
Virtually, all assessments are levied against real property. Generally, they are collected on the property tax roll, secured by a lien against the assessed property, and subject to the requirements of Proposition 218.
Prop 218 Requirements
There are four basic requirements of Proposition 218:
a. Identify all benefitted parcels. All parcels that will have a special benefit
conferred upon them and upon which an assessment will be imposed must be identified in the engineer’s report and included in the assessment district. Government owned parcels cannot be excluded absent clear and convincing evidence which demonstrates that the parcel receives no special benefit.
b. Distinguish general from special benefit. The general benefits must be distinguished from the special benefits conferred on the parcels. c. Proportionality. The proportionate special benefi t derived by each parcel
EXHIBIT A
297
must be determined in relationship to the entirety of the capital cost of the public improvement, the maintenance and operation expenses of a public improvement, or the cost of the property related service being provided. d. Reasonable cost. The assessment must be apportioned so that the amount assessed to a parcel does not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on that parcel and does not include any costs attributable to general benefits. The portion of a project cost associated with general benefit must be funded from non-assessment revenues, and a city which lacks other funds will not be able to use assessment financing, since few cases sustain a conclusion that a project has no general benefit.
Community Facilities
District Act of 1982
The Community Facilities District (CFD) Act of 1982, also known as the Mello-Roos Act, was enacted by the Legislature in response to the passage of Proposition 13 (which limits taxes based on the assessed value of real property). A Mellow-Roos tax is an alternative revenue method available to the City. Current law (California Proposition 218 (1996)) constitutionally requires two-thirds (2/3) voter approval to approve the formation of a Mello- Roos District. Once approved, a Mell o-Roos Community Facilities District is formed. Once formed, a special tax (which is different from regular property tax) is imposed on all property within the community facilities district. The Mello-Roos special tax is in addition to the regular ad valorem property tax on the property. The Mello-Roos special tax is based on a formula that is specific to that district, that was approved in proceedings. The formula can be based on a variety of factors but cannot be based on the value of the property.
Mello-Roos community facilities districts commonly base the special tax on formulas, such as the square footage of the improvements, or the proximity to a specific improvement, or based on the acreage of a lot.
C. PROCEDURES FOR FORMATION OF NEW FINANCING DISTRICTS AND
PREPARATION OF REPORTS
(Str. & Hwy Code Sections 22500-22679 and Gov’t Code Section 53750 et. seq.)
There are several different kinds of maintenance districts. Landscape Maintenance Districts were the first financing districts formed to finance maintenance costs in the City of Livermore. The City administers LMD’s by keeping track of expenses, identifying assessments needed for the next year and preparing an annual Engineer’s Report for approval by City Council. An annual public hearing is held and assessments for all LMD’s in the City are sent to the County assessor office to send to property owners by August 10 th of each year.
In 2009, new stormwater requirement s became effective requiring the construction and maintenance of basins and other stormwater quality improvements that cannot be included in a Landscape Maintenance District (LMD), so the City decided a Community Facilities District (CFD) would be the
EXHIBIT A
298
appropriate mechanism to use to finance the maintenance of these additional facilities.
The City has formed CFD’s for many years to fund infrastructure. The City began forming maintenance CF D’s in 2012 to fund the maintenance of landscape, stormwater treatment devices, walls, trails, and a wide variety of other improvements. The city also administers CFD’s by keeping track of expenses, identifying the tax needed for the next year, preparing a special notice of tax lien and recording it each year. The special notice of tax lien is sent to the county assessor’s office by August 10th of each year also. The special notice of tax lien is prepared by calculating the amount of tax to be assessed on each parcel according to the rate and method established with the formation of the CFD. No annual public hearing is needed nor is an engineer’s report is needed.
Since there are existing assessment districts, LMD’s and CFD’s throughout the City of Livermore for funding maintenance and capital improvements to provide funding to repair damages due to natural disasters in the future, it is important to understand the structure of the existing financing districts in and near a proposed development to determine the most appropriate maintenance funding mechanism to use. The City typically conditions a project to provide a funding mechanism for maintenance. The Developer chooses the mechanism along with input from the City during the plan review process.
The general steps for formation of maintenance assessment districts are as follows:
Step 1 – Adoption of a Resolution Initiating Proceedings Step 2 – Preparation of an Engineer’s Report for LMD’s (Must be prepared by a registered Civil Engineer in the State of California) or Rate and Method for CFD’s
Step 3 – Adoption of a Resolution of Intension
Step 4 – Preparation and Mailing of the Notice
Step 5 - Handling of Ballots
Step 6 – Holding a Public Hearing
Step 7 – Record Keeping
In early 2018, the ongoing administration of assessment districts was transferred from the Engineering Division to the Public Works Maintenance Division. A memo was sent from the City Attorney’s O ffice to the Public Works Department , dated April 12, 2018, outlining the legal requirements to form and administer maintenance assessment districts.

D. PROJECT COORDINATION PROCEDURES FOR FORMING A FINANCING
DISTRICT OR ANNEXING AN AREA INTO AN EXISTING DISTRICT DURING
THE FINAL MAP FILING PROCESS
Before the City can approve a final map, it must be assured that an appropriate funding mechanism is in place for the costs of landscape, stormwater quality, walls, trails and the maintenance and operation of other public improvements .
When given the option of forming or annexing the area to be developed into an assessment district the developer must choose one of the following options to provide maintenance funding.
1. Option 1 - Formation of a new L andscape Maintenance District (LMD) or Community Facilities District (CFD) or annexation into an existing LMD or CFD prior to the City approving the Final Map (the descriptions below are current as of March 31, 2025. Please contact the City Attorney’s Office to confirm these are the latest procedures and the documents referenced are current).
Formation of a New Landscape Maintenance District. The City Council must adopt a resolution of intention to create a new landscape maintenance district and then mail out ballots at least 45 days before holding a public hearing on the district formation. All landowners within the district will be given a ballot to vote on forming a new maintenance district. In order to minimize the delay in approving the final map, the developer should obtain City approval of the project's Engineer's Report for creation of a landscape maintenance district at the earliest opportunity (ideally no later than the end of the second plan check), so that the public hearing process can begin. The final map cannot be approved by the City Council until the City has received a positive vote for formation of a landscape maintenance district and the public hearing for that district formation has been held by the City Council. Due to the limitations of what can be included in an LMD the City no longer creates new LMDs.
Formation of a new Community Facilities District.
The City Council must adopt a
resolution of intention to form a new Community Facilities District and then mail out ballots a certain amount of days before holding a public hearing on the district formation, please check in with the Bond Counsel and the Special Tax Consultant for mail out dates before holding a public hearing on the district formation. All landowners within the district will be given a ballot to vote on forming a new maintenance district.
Annexation into an Existing Landscape Maintenance District. Development areas to be annexed into existing Landscape Maintenance District’s (LMD) that foresaw the annexation of this future area need only to amend the original assessment diagram and Engineer’s report but do not need to vote on the inclusion of the area or hold a public hearing. If the existing LMD did not foresee the area to be added in the future, then the original assessment diagram and Engineer’s report must be amended, and a vote and a public hearing must be held.
EXHIBIT A
300
Annexation into an Existing Community Facilities District. Requires same procedures for the formation of a new CFD.
Annexation into an Existing Community Facilities District with Unanimous Approval provisions. The City of Livermore has established two CFDs with Unanimous Approval provisions. The first is the City-wide CFD 2021-1 and the second is the Isabel Neighborhood Specific Plan CFD 2023-1. The procedures set forth for annexation are described in Section H.
2. Option 2 - Submit funds for the per petual maintenance of landscape and or other public improvements.
The developer will submit a principal payment to guarantee maintenance of landscaping in perpetuity. The City has determined that the developer must make a principal payment in an amount equal to 30 times the current annual maintenance costs in order to ensure perpetual funding. With these funds in hand, formation of a landscape maintenance district would not be necessary, and approval of the final map wouldn't be delayed. This method offers the developer the advantage of being able to market lots that are free of all landscape district assessments.
3. Option 3 - Submit funds for the perpetual maintenance of landscaping and/or other improvements pending formation of a 1) new landscaping and lighting maintenance district, or the 2) annexation of the development into an existing landscape maintenance district or the 3) annexation of the development into an existing community facilities district.
The developer will make a cash deposit with the City of Livermore in the above amount to be place into a non-interest-bearing account, which would be refunded upon the successful conclusion of district formation proceedings and public hearing. This option also wouldn't involve a delay in approval of the final map. If the formation is unsuccessful then this cash deposit will be used to guarantee perpetual maintenance funding as discussed in 2 above. This option will be included as a special condition in the subdivision improvement agreement. The resolution of intention for the public hearing would be approved concurrently with the final map.
The developer should let the City plan check coordinator know at the earliest possible opportunity which option he or she wishes to pursue to fund the maintenance and operation of landscaping improvements.
E. DOCUMENTS FOR FORMATION OF A NEW LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE
DISTRICT AND ANNEXATION INTO AN EXISTING DISTRICT
Procedure for preparing an Engineer's Report for formation of a new landscape maintenance district.
a. An Engineer's Report is prepared by the developer's engineer and submitted with the first plan check of the improvement plans for the project. This submittal
EXHIBIT A
301
must follow Design Review/Planning Commission Approval of the landscaping, walls, decorative paving, and/or special amenities that will be publicly maintained. The City will not accept a draft Engineer's Report which does not reflect Design Review/Planning Commission approval of landscaping and other amenities that will be publicly maintained.
b. Prior to placing a council item initiating proceedings for the formation of a new maintenance district, the Engineer's Report must be in a final form acceptable to the City. The following must be received at least 32 days prior to Council adoption of a resolution of intention:
i. One copy of Engineer's Report, with reduced 8-1/2" x 1 1" copy of assessment diagram attached.
ii. One signed and notarized copies of the "Landowner Petition For Consent to Formation of Maintenance District" form. All landowners within the proposed district must sign the form.

EXHIBIT A
302
The seven individual parts of the Engineer's Report are to be prepared as follows:
1. LANDOWNER PETITION AND CONSENT FORM
A landowner consent form must be provided concurrently with the Engineer's Report.
This form is in a Word file labeled "newconsent2003.doc". a. Enter the district number, tract name (if any) and tract or parcel number in the header.
b. Enter the district number in the subject line and in Items 3 and 5. c. Enter the tract number in the subject line.

f. Attach Part "A" of the Engineer's Report as described in item 3 above. This description must be identical to the description in the Engineer's Report.
2. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MULTI-PHASE PROJECTS
For a multi-phase project, the developer or the developer's engineer shall consult with the Engineering Division to discuss the formation of a maintenance assessment district. At the City's discretion, one of the following methods shall be employed for multi-phase projects:
a. All phases of the project form a single maintenance district. In this case a single master plan for all phases of landscaping shall be approved by the Design Review/Planning Commission, and this master plan shall be reflected in the Engineer's Report maintenance quantities.
b. Each phase of the project shall form its own maintenance district.
3. REQUIREMENTS FOR INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIAL PROJECTS Unless otherwise pre-approved by the Engineering Division, the method of spread for industrial and commercial parcels shall be on a lot square footage basis, rather than on a per lot basis as is done for residential lots. This will require a modification of the standard Engineer's Report boilerplate.
EXHIBIT A
303
F. DOCUMENTS FOR FORMATION OF A NEW COMMUNITY FACILITIES
DISTRICT
There is an 8-step process that is required to form a viable bonded Community Facilities District (CFD).
1. Step 1 – Initiation of CFD: It begins with an initiation process where a property owner or government entity begins the process of establishing a CFD.
a. Developer requests City to form a CFD. If the City determines that the request is beneficial to the City the Developer provides a signed petition requesting the formation of a CFD.
b. City works with Developer on a list of services to be financed. c. When list is agreed upon. The engineering coordinator works with the City Attorney’s Office to ask the City’s Bond Counsel to prepare the required documents for initiation of the CFD. Engineering Coordinator works with Special Tax Consultant to begin preparing the CFD Report and RMA. d. Engineering Coordinator places the Resolution of Intention to form a CFD on the next City Council Agenda and follows the City procedures (prepares a staff report) for City Council to formally receive the landowner petition and initiate the CFD process. Bond Counsel will prepare the Resolution of Intention.
2. Step 2 Establishment of Rate of Apportionment (RMA) Following the laws for California, the Rate and Method of Apportionment must be developed and determined. The Rate and Method of Apportionment (RMA) outlines how a tax will be levied or charged, on which property, under what conditions, for how long and at what rate.
a. Bond Counsel prepares the resolution of intention.
b. The special tax consultant prepares the Rate and Method of Apportionment (RMA).
3. Step 3 – Public Hearing:
a. Engineering coordinator follows the City procedures to schedule a public hearing, prepare a staff report and resolutions with the help of the Bond Counsel and Special Tax Consultant. The documents include: 1) Resolution of Formation, 2) Resolution to incur debt, 3) etc. 4) Presentation to City Council and a script for the Mayor, Notice of Public Hearing b. A public hearing is held and if there are no majority objections by the participants, then the CFD formation process continues.
EXHIBIT A
304
4. Step 4 – Election: An election is held amongst the property owners. In order to establish a CFD, a two-thirds affirmative vote of property owners is required if there are no more than 12 registered voters living within the proposed district.
However, if more than 12 registered voters are living in the district, a two-thirds vote of registered voters is required.
5. Step 5 – Resolution of Formation/Resolution to Incur Debt: This step is when the district is approved to be formed, and the issuance of debt is authorized for bonded districts.
6. Step 6 – Second Reading of Ordinance: Engineering Coordinator follows the City procedures to schedule and prepare a staff report for the second reading of the ordinance for CFD formation at the meeting following the Public Hearing.
7. Step 7 – Recordation of Special Tax Lien: Engineering Coordinator works with City Clerk to arranged for the recordation of Special Tax Lien.
8. Step 8 – Issue Debt: The last step in the formation process is to issue any debt necessary such as land-secured municipal bonds or bank loans.
Engineering Coordinator shall work with Finance, Bond Counsel and the Special Tax Consultant to complete this step.
Once the formation process is complete, a special tax is imposed on all property within the Community Facilities District. This tax is not an ad valorem property tax. It is in addition to the standard property tax that exists in that region.
G. DOCUMENTS FOR ANNEXATION INTO AN EXISTING COMMUNITY
FACILITIES DISTRICT
In general the procedure for a property to annex into an existing CFD follows the same basic procedure and documentation as for the formation of a new CFD. Consult with City Attorney, Bond Counsel and Special Tax Consultant for any modifications to the process as they pertain to the project.
H. DOCUMENTS FOR ANNEXATION INTO AN EXISTING COMMUNITY
FACILITIES DISTRICT WITH UNANIMOUS APPROVAL PROVISIONS
1. The City of Livermore has established two CFDs with provisions to simplify the annexation process to one Council meeting. These CFDs were created with a Unanimous Approval provision. The two CFDs with Unanimous Approval at this time are CFD 2021-1 City-wide District with the provision to annex additional areas into the District City-wide and CFD 2023-1 Isabel Neighborhood Specific Plan.
EXHIBIT A
305
Properties that annex into CFD 2021-1 will need to establish the maintenance items and maintenance costs to be included in the annexation.
Properties that annex into CFD 2023-1 will need to utilize the established rate for maintenance per acre in the RMA and follow the procedure as outlined below except for the establishment of maintenance items and estimate as they were already established at district formation.
a. Below is the procedure for preparing the documents for Annexation into CFD 2021-1 the existing City-wide district.
i. Establish maintenance items and request draft “Description of Services to be Financed” and estimate of maintenance costs from Developer.
ii. Work with Maintenance to review and comment on the drafts and provide redlines to Developer with plan check comments for the project.
iii. Once drafts go through 2-3 plan review rounds, share with Senior Development Engineer for comments along with the plans. Incorporate any comments and recalculate as necessary.
iv. Request the developer to provide a recent preliminary title report.
b. Preparation of Rate and Method of Assessment (RMA).
i. Once maintenance costs are close to their final form provide the following to Bond Counsel and the Special Tax Consultant :
1. Description of services
2. Estimate of Maintenance Costs
3. Preliminary Tract or Parcel Map
4. Preliminary Title Report
5. Signature block for entity signing the ballot, and evidence of authority for signor.
2. Provide NBS with the target to return RMA, Revised Tax Zone Map, the Council date and the deadline for final documents to make this date. Please copy Senior Development Engineer, and Attorney’s Office.
i. The City’s consultant (NBS) prepares the draft Rate and Method of Assessment (RMA) and provides to City Staff. If necessary, staff redlines RMA and returns to consultant for corrections.
ii. Consultant provides written confirmation from the County that there are no registered voters on the parcel/annexing parcel.
EXHIBIT A
306
iii. When RMA is in final form Project Coordinator prepares the Draft Unanimous Approval complete with all Exhibits.
iv. Provide draft Unanimous Approval with all exhibits to Bond Counsel and Special Tax Consultant for review together with items as noted above.
Let them know the deadline to make the target date for City Council.
v. Revise draft Unanimous Approval if necessary.
vi. Provide the final Unanimous Approval to the Developer with all final Exhibits with deadline to make the target City Council date.
vii. Bond Counsel prepares the annexation resolution and amendment to the Notice of Special Tax Lien.
3. City Council Approval
Upon receipt of executed Unanimous Approval, Project Coordinator prepares staff report for Annexation on the consent calendar. Following Council approval Special Tax Consultant records the amendment to the Notice of Special Tax Lien. Project Coordinator will provide the Clerk with contact information to record the Notice of Special Tax Lien.
After receiving all executed documents, Project Coordinator to record annexation date in the Annexation List.
4. The City has established a City-wide Community Facilities District and an Isabel Community Facilities District. Both CFD’s have established a shorter annexation process when there is unanimous approval of the annexation. This process is described in this section.
This process is as follows:

XI. CITY ENGINEERING DESIGN CRITERIA
FLEXIBLE AND SEMI-RIGID PIPE DESIGN GUIDELINES
This document has been prepared to outline some of the basic principles of semi -rigid and flexible pipe design focusing mainly on the pipe deflection caused by soil loading in trench conditions. The methodology presented herein does not address surcharge loading (e.g. buildings), embankment conditions, buckling (e.g. vacuum or hydrostatic pressure), railroad or airport loads. The information presented herein is intended to assist in the design of the following semi-rigid and flexible pipe types:
Pipe Type Specification Sect
ion
1. Corrugated Polyethylene Non-pressure Pipe 02631
2. Ductile Iron Pipe 05060
3. PVC Composite Sewer Pipe 02533
4. ABS Composite Sewer Pipe 02533
5. ABS Non-pressure Pipe 02534
6. Small PVC Non-pressure Pipe 02534
EXTERNAL LOADS - DEFLECTION DESIGN
When a trench load of sufficient magnitude is applied, semi- rigid and flexible pipe will deflect until sufficient passive resistance from the sidefill soil is developed, thereby transmitting part of the trench load to the sidefill soil. Thus, the load- carrying capacity of semi -rigid and flexible pipe is a function of the soil stiffness and the pipe stiffness.
The original formula for the design of flexible pipe was developed by Spangler later modified by Watkins and Spangler or otherwise referred to as the Modified Iowa Formula. Semi -rigid pipe types steel and ductile iron also use the same or similar formula to determine deflection as described in AWWA M11 and M41. The general form of any deflection formula includes the load on the pipe as the numerator, with the sum of pipe and soil stiffness terms as the denominator. The Modified Iowa Formula is used herein and shown below. An explanation of the terms used in the formula follows:
The Modified Iowa Formula
∆𝑋𝑋 =
[𝐷𝐷
𝐿𝐿 ∗ 𝐾𝐾𝐵𝐵 ∗ �𝑊𝑊𝐸𝐸 + 𝑊𝑊𝐿𝐿
𝐷𝐷𝐿𝐿
� ∗ 𝑟𝑟3]
𝐸𝐸𝐸𝐸 + 0.061𝐸𝐸𝑟𝑟3
Where ∆𝑋𝑋 = The predicted horizontal deflection or change in diameter (in.).
DL = The deflection lag factor, which adjusts initial deflection to consider consolidation of the soil load and the soil modulus over time. When
EXHIBIT A
308
the soil prism load is used, D L = 1.0, since the maximum load on the pipe after full soil consolidation is the prism load. When the soil prism load is not used a design value between 1.25 to 1.50 should be used.
KB = The Bedding constant which accounts for variability of haunch compaction is dependent upon the angle subtended by the pipe bedding.
WE = Earth load on pipe (pounds per linear inch).
WL = Live load on pipe (pounds per linear inch).
r = Mean radius of the pipe (in.).
E = Modulus of elasticity of the pipe material (psi).
I = Moment of inertia of the pipe wall per unit length (t3/12) (in3). t = Pipe wall thickness (in.).
E’ = Modulus of soil reaction. This is the long-term effective stiffness of the soil and embedment in resistance to deformation (psi).
Many plastic pipe types (e.g. PVC, HDPE, and ABS) incorporate the design parameter pipe stiffness (PS) into the Modified Iowa formula. PS is measured, according to ASTM D 2412, "Standard Test Method for External Loading Properties of Plastic Pipe by Parallel-Plate Loading, "
at a datum of 5 percent deflection. Incorporating PS into the Modified Iowa formula shown above the following equation results:
∆%
𝐷𝐷 = 𝐷𝐷𝐿𝐿 ∗ 𝐾𝐾𝐵𝐵 ∗ [𝑊𝑊𝐸𝐸 + 𝑊𝑊𝐿𝐿] ∗ 100
0.149𝑃𝑃𝑃𝑃 + 0.061𝐸𝐸′
Where: WE = The soil prism load, in psi, equal to the weight of soil over the pipe. The Value is equal to the unit weight of soil (pcf) times the depth of cover (ft), divided by 144 in 2/ft2.
W L = Live loads, in psi.
EXHIBIT A
309
PS = Pipe stiffness, in psi. Minimum pipe stiffness is Measured in accordance with ASTM standards, determined by the parallel plate loading test at 5% deflection (ASTM D 2412), or calculated from manufacturer’s data.
∆%/D = Percent Deflection
D = Outside pipe diameter (in.)
DESIGN TABLES
The attached design for various semi-rigid and flexible pipe types are to be used for general design purposes only. The consider deflection criteria only (except for DP which also considers bending stress). Vacuum and internal pressures are not evaluated in these but should be considered in determining the pipe wall thickness of pressure pipe. Internal pressure and vacuum design criteria for DIP and steel pipe can be found in AWWA C150 and M41 for DIP and AWWA C200 and M11 for steel pipe.
It should also be noted that the design tables do not include surcharge loads such as building foundations, embankments, adjacent railroads, airport loads and high groundwater. HS-20 live loads due to traffic loading are considered for depths of cover less than 10 feet. Generally, live loads tend to be insignificant in the overall pipe wall thickness design when depth of cover is greater than 10 feet.
Design parameters unique to each pipe material are shown on each pipe design table worksheet and discussed as appropriate in footnote.

RIGID PIPE DESIGN
GUIDELINES
This document has been prepared to outline some of the basic principles of rigid pipe design focusing on pipe strength and • soil loading in trench conditions. The methodology presented herein does not address surcharge loading (e.g. buildings, embankment conditions, railroad or airport loads). The information presented herein is intended to assist in the design of the following rigid pipe types:
Pipe Type Specification Section
I . Vitrified Clay Pipe 02536
2. Reinforced Concrete Pipe 02632
DESIGN TABLES
The attached design tables for vitrified clay and reinforced concrete pipe are to be used for general design purposes only.
It should also be noted that the design tables do not include surcharge loads such as building foundations, embankments, adjacent railroads, airport loads and high groundwater. HS-20 live Loads due to traffic loading are considered for depths of cover less than 10 feet. The earth load determination is calculated using the Marston Equation which is defined with its parameters in the pipe design tables.
PIPE STRENGTH DETERMINATION
The pipe strength determination for vitrified clay pipe (VCP) is determined by calculating the computed Three-Edge-Bearing Strength as defined by •the extra strength pipe design criteria for extra strength VCP and ASTM C12 and C700. The pipe strength deter mination for reinforced concrete' pipe (RCP) is determined by calculating the computed D -Load as defined by the attached pipe design criteria for reinforced concrete pipe and ASTM C76.

The Modified Iowa Formula
∆𝑋𝑋 =
[𝐷𝐷𝐿𝐿 ∗ 𝐾𝐾𝐵𝐵 ∗ �𝑊𝑊𝐸𝐸 + 𝑊𝑊𝐿𝐿
𝐷𝐷𝐿𝐿
� ∗ 𝑟𝑟3]
𝐸𝐸𝐸𝐸 + 0.061𝐸𝐸𝑟𝑟3
Where ∆𝑋𝑋 = The predicted horizontal deflection or change in diameter (in.).
DL = The deflection lag factor, which adjusts initial deflection to consider consolidation of the soil load and the soil modulus over time. When the soil prism load is used, DL=1.0, since the maximum load on the pipe after full soil consolidation is the prism load. When the soil prism load is not used a design value between 1.25 to 1.50 should be used.
KB = The Bedding constant which accounts for variability of haunch compaction is dependent upon the angle subtended by the pipe bedding.
WE = Earth load on pipe (pounds per linear inch)
WL = Live load on pipe (pounds per linear inch)
r = Mean radius of the pipe (in.)
E = Modulus of elasticity of the pipe material (psi) I = Moment of inertia of the pipe wall per unit length (t3/12) (in3) t = Pipe wall thickness (in.)
E’ = Modulus of soil reaction. This is the long-term effective stiffness of the soil and embedment in resistance to deformation (psi)
Many plastic pipe types (e.g. PVC, HDPE, and ABS) incorporate the design parameter pipe stiffness (PS) into the Modified Iowa formula. PS is measured, according to ASTM D 2412, "Standard Test Method for External Loading Properties of Plastic Pipe by Parallel-Plate Loading, " at a datum of 5 percent deflection. Incorporating PS into the Modif ied Iowa formula shown above the following equation results:
∆%
𝐷𝐷 = 𝐷𝐷𝐿𝐿 ∗ 𝐾𝐾𝐵𝐵 ∗ [𝑊𝑊𝐸𝐸 + 𝑊𝑊𝐿𝐿] ∗ 100
0.149𝑃𝑃𝑃𝑃 + 0.061𝐸𝐸′
EXHIBIT A
324
Where: WE = The soil prism load, in psi, equal to the weight of soil over the pipe. The Value is equal to the unit weight of soil (pcf) times the depth of cover (ft), divided by 144 in2/ft2.
W L = Live loads, in psi.
PS = Pipe stiffness, in psi. Minimum pipe stiffness is Measured in accordance with ASTM standards, determined by the parallel plate loading test at 5% deflection (ASTM D 2412) or calculated from manufacturer’s data.
∆%/D = Percent Deflection
D = Outside pipe diameter (in.)
DESIGN TABLES
The attached design for various semi-rigid and flexible pipe types are to be used for general design purposes only. The consider deflection criteria only (except for DP which also considers bending stress). Vacuum and internal pressures are not evaluated in these but should be considered in determining the pipe wall thickness of pressure pipe. Internal pressure and vacuum design criteria for DIP and steel pipe can be found in AWWA C150 and M41 for DIP and AWWA C200 and M11 for steel pipe.
It should also be noted that the design tables do not include surcharge loads such as building foundations, embankments, adjacent railroads, airport loads and high groundwater. HS-20 live loads due to traffic loading are considered for depths of cover less than 10 feet. Generally, live loads tend to be insignificant in the overall pipe wall thickness design when depth of cover is greater than 10 feet.
Design parameters unique to each pipe material are shown on each pipe design table worksheet and discussed as appropriate in footnote

RIGID PIPE DESIGN
GUIDELINES
This document has been prepared to outline some of the basic principles of rigid pipe design focusing on pipe strength and • soil loading in trench conditions. The methodology presented herein does not address surcharge loading (e.g. buildings, embankment conditions, railroad or airport loads). The information presented herein is intended to assist in the design of the following rigid pipe types:
Pipe Type Specification Section
I . Vitrified Clay Pipe 02536
2. Reinforced Concrete Pipe 02632
DESIGN TABLES
The attached design tables for vitrified clay and reinforced concrete pipe are to be used for general design purposes only.
It should also be noted that the design tables do not include surcharge loads such as building foundations, embankments, adjacent railroads, airport loads and high groundwater. HS-20 live Loads due to traffic loading are considered for depths of cover less than 10 feet. The earth load determination is calculated using the Marston Equation which is defined with its parameters in the pipe design tables.
PIPE STRENGTH DETERMINATION
The pipe strength determination for vitrified clay pipe (VCP) is determined by calculating the computed Three-Edge-Bearing Strength as defined by •the extra strength pipe design criteria for extra strength VCP and ASTM C12 and C700. The pipe strength deter mination for reinforced concrete' pipe (RCP) is determined by calculating the computed D -Load as defined by the attached pipe design criteria for reinforced concrete pipe and ASTM C76.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 5.4
DATE:
March 24, 2025
TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Brent Smith, Community Development Director
SUBJECT:
Resolution approving exceptions to the Livermore Municipal Code bidding requirements, authorizing issuance of a purchase order in an amount not-to-exceed $813,345 for Contech Engineered Solutions, LLC, and authorizing issuance of a purchase order in an amount not-to-exceed $653,136 for StormTrap, LLC for full trash capture devices as part of the Storm Drain Trash Capture Project 2024-25.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution:
1 .
Approving an exception to the bidding requirement contained in Livermore Municipal Code Section
2.68.360.C2 because there is a compelling and justifiable reason, such as product standardization, to procure the required goods or services from a particular consultant, contractor, or vendor; 2 .
Approving an exception to the bidding requirement contained in Livermore Municipal Code Section
2.68.360.C1 because the supplies and equipment can only be obtained from one consultant, contractor, or vendor due to the proprietary, specialized, or unique character of the required goods or services;
3 .
Authorizing the City Manager to execute a purchase order in an amount not-to exceed $813,345 for Contech Engineered Solutions, LLC for full trash capture devices as part of the Storm Drain Trash Capture Project 2024-25; and
4 .
Authorizing the City Manager to execute a purchase order in an amount not-to exceed $653,136 for StormTrap, LLC for full trash capture devices as part of the Storm Drain Trash Capture Project 2024-25.
SUMMARY
To complete the Storm Drain Trash Capture Project 2024-25, the City of Livermore (City) will need to purchase and install large full trash capture devices at various locations throughout the city. Staff recommends that the City Council approve the sole source purchase of three custom DSBB and one DSBB 8-16 trash capture devices from Contech Engineered Solutions, LLC (Contech), and three TrashTrap Fixed Basket Custom Vaults from StormTrap, LLC (StormTrap).
338
Contech provided the large-scale trash capture devices that were installed in past capital improvement projects in this series. This familiarity has allowed City maintenance staff to become proficient in the operation and maintenance of these devices, which will save the City money on additional training and tools for device maintenance.
The TrashTrap device from StormTrap is uniquely designed and is the only device that staff determined can fit the site constraints for two of the locations identified for the installation of large-scale trash capture devices.
DISCUSSION
To comply with the Regional Water Quality Control Board’s Regional Stormwater Permit requirement of 100% trash reduction by the June 30, 2025 deadline, the City must install eight large-scale trash capture devices as part of the Storm Drain Trash Capture Project 2024-25.
During the design development, City staff and the design consultant, both with extensive experience in trash capture projects, identified the need for specific large-scale devices. They selected DSBB devices from Contech and TrashTrap Fixed Basket devices from StormTrap.
In previous capital improvement projects, Contech supplied the large-scale trash capture devices that were integrated into the City's storm drain system. These devices have performed well and the maintenance team is already familiar with their operation and upkeep. This familiarity will save the City money on additional training and tools needed for maintenance that would be required if a different supplier were chosen.
The City's design consultant, experienced in trash capture projects, and City staff received a quote from a supplier offering a similar product. They found that the Contech devices were more cost-effective than comparable devices from the other supplier, and the price quoted was fair and reasonable.
Section 2.68.360.C2 of the Livermore Municipal Code provides exceptions to the bidding procedure for procurements available from multiple sources if there is a compelling and justifiable reason, such as product standardization, to procure the required goods or services from a specific consultant, contractor, or vendor.
One installation site on Southfront Road was chosen due to its unique location, allowing the City to capture and treat a portion of Caltrans’ stormwater runoff along with a significant portion of the City’s runoff. This led to a Cooperative Implementation Agreement (CIA) with Caltrans, resulting in approximately $1.4 million in reimbursement funding for installing a device in this area. The TrashTrap Fixed Basket Custom Vault was identified as the only device that can correctly fit this location. Two TrashTrap devices will be installed at this location directly next to each other.
A second proposed location along Portola Avenue was selected, where existing City utilities necessitated choosing a device that can fit the space. The TrashTrap Fixed Basket Custom Vault was again found to be the only suitable option.
The City's design consultant, experienced in trash capture projects, and City staff reviewed the quote provided by StormTrap, compared it to recent prices for similar devices, and deemed it a fair and reasonable price for a large-scale full trash capture device. 339
Section 2.68.360.C1 of the Livermore Municipal Code allows exceptions to the bidding procedure if procurements can only be obtained from one consultant, contractor, or vendor due to the proprietary, specialized, or unique character of the required goods or services.
Contech and StormTrap will not be doing any installation or construction. Construction and installation will be performed by a competitively bid contactor.
FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS
The Storm Drain Trash Capture Project 2024-25 is funded in the 2023-2028 Capital Improvement Plan with Storm Water and Storm Drain Fees. The current budget covers this purchase.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 5.5
DATE:
March 24, 2025
TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Judy Erlandson, Acting Public Works Director
SUBJECT:
Resolution authorizing the approval of Altamont Settlement Agreement Education Advisory Board's $628,665 Expenditure Plan for FY 2025-26
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution approving the Altamont Settlement Agreement Education Advisory Board's $628,665 Expenditure Plan for FY 2025-26.
SUMMARY
In 1999, the Settlement Agreement between and among the County of Alameda, the City of Livermore, the City of Pleasanton, Sierra Club, Northern California Recycling Association (NCRA), Altamont Landowners Against Rural Mismanagement and Waste Management of Alameda County, Inc. (Altamont Settlement Agreement) was ratified by the named parties.
The Altamont Settlement Agreement provides for the collection of a per-ton fee from the Altamont Landfill and Resource Recovery Facility (ALRRF) for impacts on the communities due to expansion of the landfill. The Altamont Settlement Agreement also created the Altamont Settlement Agreement Education Advisory Board (EAB) to oversee funds generated by the surcharge. The EAB solicits competitive grants from applicants that plan to implement recycling and environmental awareness programs.
The proposed FY 2025-26 Expenditure Plan in Exhibit A to the resolution outlines the EAB's recommended grant awards and expenditures. City Council approval of the Expenditure Plan totaling $628,665 is required per the terms of the Altamont Settlement Agreement.
DISCUSSION
In 1999, the County of Alameda, the cities of Livermore and Pleasanton, the Sierra Club, NCRA, and Altamont Landowners Against Rural Mismanagement entered into an agreement with Waste Management of Alameda County, Inc. This agreement, known as the Altamont Settlement Agreement, created the Altamont Settlement Agreement Education Advisory Board, or EAB. The EAB convenes monthly and has five voting members. Two members are appointed by the Northern California Recycling Association, one member is the Environmental Education appointee on the Alameda County Source 344
Reduction and Recycling Board, and the Livermore City Council and the Pleasanton City Council each appoint one member. The Livermore City Council appointed Fenna Gatty, a science teacher at Altamont Creek Elementary School, as the Livermore representative on the EAB. The Pleasanton City Council position is currently vacant.
The Altamont Settlement Agreement stipulates that a surcharge be collected to create an Education Account to support recycling education programs and job training in the field of waste prevention and recycling and to mitigate the impacts of the landfill operations on the affected community. The $0.47 per ton surcharge on incoming waste at both Waste Management's Altamont landfill and the $0.46 per ton surcharge from Republic's Vasco Road landfill generates approximately $600,000 per year and has an account balance of approximately $1,000,000 as of December 31, 2024. Funds are collected from the landfills by the Alameda County Treasurer. The Alameda County Treasurer then transfers the annual allocation to the City of Livermore and will continue to do so indefinitely. The EAB recognizes the City of Livermore for its efforts and administrative support consistent with section 7.6.2 of the Settlement Agreement by providing up to 2% of the annual receipts to the City for administrative costs. The EAB also works with an independent contractor to provide administrative support and process dispersal of funds to grant recipients.
The EAB creates an Annual Report to detail the prior year grant funded programs and also compiles an annual Expenditure Plan by April 1 each year. Per the terms of the Altamont Settlement Agreement, the Expenditure Plan must be approved by each voting member agency's governing body. Therefore, the Livermore City Council must approve the Expenditure Plan prior to disbursement of the FY 2025-26 grant funds. Approval will also be sought from the Pleasanton City Council, The Northern California Association Board of Directors, and the Alameda County Board of Supervisors.
On January 7, 2025 the EAB unanimously approved the proposed FY 2025-26 Expenditure. The proposed Expenditure Plan outlines the funding needs and objectives, the EAB initiated projects, and administration costs paid to the City of Livermore. The proposed Expenditure Plan also notes that unexpended funds from previous years will be carried over and, if necessary, applied to the FY 2025-26 grant year. The current unexpended fund balance is approximately $25,000.
For FY 2025-26 the EAB is proposing the following schedule for disbursement of funds, totaling $625,665:
$5,000 for EAB communications, website
$135,000 in mini-grants
$286,000 in project grants
$50,000 in EAB Board initiated projects
$110,040 in multi-year grants
$0 for landfill mitigation projects
$30,000 for staff support
$12,625 for Livermore financial management and administrative support.
Staff is recommending that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the $628,665 Expenditure Plan for FY 2025-26, as required per the Altamont Settlement Agreement. The 2024 Annual Report that outlines the previous years grant awards can be found in Attachment 1.

Background
In 1999, the cities of Livermore and Pleasanton, the Sierra Club and the Northern California Recycling Association (NCRA) entered into a settlement agreement with Alameda County and Altamont Landfill. The Altamont Landfill Settlement Agreement created the Altamont Education Advisory Board to propose allocation of funds in the Education Account for recycling education programs, job training in the field of waste prevention and recycling and mitigating the impacts of the landfill operations in the affected community. Funds generated from the $0.47 and $0.46 per ton surcharge amount to approximately $600,000 annually.
There are five voting members on the Education Advisory Board: one appointed by the Livermore City Council; one appointed by the Pleasanton City Council; two appointed by NCRA; and the Alameda County Recycling Board’s Environmental Educator.
The role of the Education Advisory Board is to annually propose the allocation of funds from the Education Account by submitting an Expenditure Plan by April 1 of each year. Concurrence of Alameda County, the cities of Livermore and Pleasanton, and NCRA on the Expenditure Plan is necessary before funds are allocated.
Funds are collected from the Altamont Landfill by the Alameda County Treasurer. The County then remits the annual allocation to the agency administering the funds (07-08 City of Pleasanton, 08-13 and out years, City of Livermore) for disbursal to grant recipients.
2024 Activities
The 2024 Expenditure Plan was approved by each of the parties in the spring of 2024. The Expenditure Plan proposed the following allocations:

The EAB consists of five voting members—two members chosen by the NCRA, one member chosen by the City of Livermore, one member chosen by the City of Pleasanton, and one member chosen by the Alameda County Recycling Board’s environmental educator.
Each year, the EAB proposes the allocation of funds in the Education Account, which shall be approved by the County, City of Pleasanton, City of Livermore, and NCRA.
Pursuant to Section 7.6.2 of the Settlement Agreement, the EAB may allocate funds for diversion education programs, job training in the field of waste diversion and recycling, and mitigating the impacts of the ALRRF operations on the affected neighboring community. The EAB also recognizes the City of Livermore for its efforts to share in the cost in support of the mission of the EAB by agreeing to provide fiscal and administrative support consistent with Section 7.6.2 of the Settlement Agreement, which is in the public interest and allows for up to 2% of the annual receipts to be spent on administrative costs.
The FY 2025-26 Expenditure Plan, attached hereto as Exhibit A, outlines the EAB’s proposed plan, summary, and funding allocations for FY 2025-26.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Livermore, that it:

Plan Summary
The Altamont Landfill Settlement Agreement created the
Altamont Education Advisory Board to propose allocation of funds in the Education Account for diversion education
programs, job training in the field of waste diversion and recycling and mitigating the impacts of the landfill operations on the affected neighboring community. Funds generated from the approximate $0.47 per ton surcharge originating from the Altamont Landfill and approximate $0.46 originating from the Vasco Road Landfill, which are expected to amount to
approximately $600,000 annually. This per ton surcharge fee will be increased based on the consumer price index effective January 1, 2025.
The Need
The Altamont Landfill and Vasco Road Landfill accept
material for disposal from Alameda County jurisdictions, and from the city of San Ramon. Funding programs in diversion education and job training in waste diversion and recycling throughout the landfill service area will preserve the life of the landfill and save resources.
Target Sectors
• Environmental education programs that serve schools
• Non-formal environmental education programs,
serving students K-12
• Community-based environmental education programs
• Job training programs in the field of waste diversion and recycling
• Support to institutions and communities required to
conform to new state laws, such as SB 1383
Funding Goals
• Allocate $500,000 per year for education and job
training programs in waste prevention, source
reduction, reuse, recycling, composting, and
procurement of recycled content products.
• Report measurable results to the Northern California
Recycling Association (NCRA), Alameda County
Board of Supervisors and cities of Livermore and
Pleasanton on an annual basis.
• Provide up to two cents ($0.02) of every forty-five
cents ($0.45) of the Education Account to Alameda

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 5.6
DATE:
March 24, 2025
TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Jeramy Young, Police Chief
SUBJECT:
Resolution receiving the 2024 Annual Review of Military Equipment Report, determining that the equipment identified in the report complies with applicable standards, and authorizing the City of Livermore Military Equipment Ordinance 2.36.200 to be renewed and remain in effect.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends City Council adopt a resolution:
1 .
Accepting the 2024 Annual Military Equipment Report;
2 .
Determining that the equipment identified in the report complies with the City’s policy and the statutory requirements; and
3 .
Determining that the policy set forth in Livermore Municipal Code section 2.36.200 Military Equipment Policy should be renewed and remain in effect.
SUMMARY
The Livermore Police Department (LPD) regularly utilizes a wide range of equipment to provide effective public safety service to the community. This variety of equipment provides a multitude of options to help address and de-escalate situations that are often tense, uncertain, and rapidly evolving. Having the availability of different equipment options minimizes the potential for harm to the public, the suspect, and the police department staff.
In 2022, a new state law (AB 481) required City Councils to adopt, by ordinance, a policy pertaining to the finding, acquisition, and use of certain types of equipment utilized by local police departments. The law also mandated other considerations related to public engagement and annual reporting. The first report was prepared on April 11, 2022, and this report serves as our annual report for 2024.
DISCUSSION
On September 30, 2021, Governor Newsom signed into law Assembly Bill 481, related to law enforcement’s funding, acquisition, and use of certain types of equipment, which AB 481 identified as “military equipment.” This designation of military equipment is not necessarily synonymous with items 356
regularly utilized by the United States military or surplus items provided to law enforcement agencies through federal programs such as the 1033 Program. None of the designated items by the Livermore Police Department were obtained from the federal government through the 1033 Program.
Many of the items identified in this legislation have been in local use for years, while others have never been used by the Livermore Police Department. Many of the designated items, such as bean bag launchers, are commonly used as alternatives to higher levels of force, while others are not directly related to the use of force by law enforcement (i.e. Command post vehicles and non-weaponized robots/drones).
Assembly Bill 481 was codified in Government Code Sections 7070 through 7075. The bill required law enforcement agencies to obtain City Council approval of an equipment policy via ordinance, at a regular meeting held pursuant to open meeting laws, prior to taking certain actions relating to the funding, acquisition, or use of certain equipment identified in the Government Code. All California law enforcement agencies wishing to continue their use of this equipment were required to commence the authorization process by May 1, 2022. The Livermore City Council complied with this requirement on April 11, 2022. On April 25, 2022, Ordinance No. 2134 was adopted by adding section 2.36.200 Military
Equipment Policy
to the Livermore Municipal Code.
Government Code 7070 designates certain equipment as “military equipment.” Included in that definition are the following items possessed and/or used by the Livermore Police Department within the normal scope of operations (please refer to Attachment 1 for specific quantities and additional information):
• Unmanned, remotely piloted, powered aerial or ground vehicles (note: these items are used for observation purposes only, and do not possess weapons capabilities). • Armored personnel carriers.
• Wheeled vehicles that have an attached breaching or entry apparatus. • Command and control vehicles built or modified to facilitate the operational control and direction or public safety units.
• Battering rams, slugs, breaching apparatuses that are explosive in nature (this does not include handheld, one-person rams).
• Specialized firearms and ammunition of less than .50 caliber, including firearms and accessories identified as assault weapons in Penal Code Section 30510 and Penal Code Section 30515, except for standard-issue weapons.
• Noise-flash diversionary devices and explosive breaching tools. • Munitions containing tear gas or OC (pepper spray), excluding standard, service-issues handheld pepper spray.
• Kinetic energy weapons and munitions.
Livermore Police Department policies and case law dictate when and how certain types of equipment may be used. Departmental equipment, especially any item that could be used as a force option, is expected to be used in a manner consistent with all applicable laws and policies. Department policies also require officers to utilize de-escalation and crisis intervention techniques, as well as other alternatives to force when feasible.
In addition to the equipment owned by the City of Livermore, use of allied agency equipment is also subject to the requirements of the policy. The use of equipment from allied agencies augments the department’s inventory for command and control, scene safety, intelligence gathering, lethal force 357
applications, and less-lethal force applications to meet the vast array of potential circumstances that might require law enforcement action. Many of those allied agency options may never actually be needed but are important tools to have available when facing uncertain and uncommon circumstances.
Government Code Section 7071(e)(2) allows the governing body of a city to approve the funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment, or other equipment as determined by the governing body to require additional oversight, within its jurisdiction only if it makes specified determinations, which include the following:
1. Equipment is necessary because there are no reasonable alternatives that can achieve the same objectives of officer and civilian.
2. The Livermore Police Department Military Equipment Policy (#709) will safeguard the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties.
3. The equipment is reasonably cost effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objectives of officers and civilians.
4. The policy is approved.
In addition to the initial requirements of the legislation, law enforcement agencies must also complete the following:
Designate a member of the department to act as the coordinator for the listed military equipment.
Compliance: The department has complied with this requirement by designating the Force Options Unit Lieutenant as the Coordinator. Additional staff will support the Force Options Unit Lieutenant in meeting all requirements.
Identify department equipment that qualifies as military equipment (as defined by Government Code Section 7070) in the current possession of the Livermore Police Department, or the equipment the Livermore Police Department intends to acquire that requires approval by the governing body.
Compliance: The department has complied with this requirement by conducting a related inventory of current equipment (attached hereto and incorporated by reference) and by identifying future acquisitions as part of the budget.
Conduct an inventory of all listed equipment.
Compliance: The department has completed the current inventory and has added the inventory as an attachment.
Collaborate with any allied agency that may use listed equipment within the jurisdiction of the Livermore Police Department.
Compliance: The department has collaborated with allied agencies and included allied agency assets in the “Allied Agency Equipment” section of the attached equipment inventory. This collaboration includes the department’s partnership with the Pleasanton Police Department to form a joint Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team, known as the East County Tactical Team. Additional forms of listed equipment should not be used in this jurisdiction, except in exigent circumstances with approval of the Chief of Police or his/her designee. Any such exigent use shall be reported to the public on the department’s website within 30 days of use unless it is deemed to be confidential under the law. Applicable reporting shall include a description of the item used, the general reason for its use, and any reasonably known fiscal impact resulting from the equipment use.
Prepare for, schedule, and coordinate an annual community engagement meeting to include publicizing the details of the meeting and preparing for public questions regarding the department’s funding, acquisition, and use of listed equipment. 358
Compliance: The Force Options Unit Lieutenant has been designated to complete this requirement, which commenced in 2023. A community meeting was held on March 17, 2025, at the Livermore Police Department.
Prepare an annual report for submission to the Chief of Police and ensure that the report is made available on the department website.
Compliance: The Force Options Unit Lieutenant was assigned to complete this task on an annual basis. Refer to the attached 2024 Annual Military Equipment Report.
Establish a procedure for a person to register a complaint of concern, or how that person may submit a question about the use of a type of equipment listed by Government Code Section 7070 and how the department will respond in a timely manner.
Compliance: The Professional Standards Unit Sergeant has been assigned to meet this requirement by adding an applicable section and email link of the Livermore Police Department website contains an AB 481 section under the Transparency and Information page. The webpage contains all applicable sections and an email link for complaints or concerns. No complaints or concerns were received in 2024.
Staff worked diligently to comply with all requirements of this legislation. Additionally, staff plans to include future acquisition authorizations through the regular budget approval process.
FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS:
The legislation is not expected to have any significant fiscal or administrative impacts beyond the labor required to meet the annual inventory and transparency related requirements for the 2024 Annual Review of Military Equipment Report.
COMMUNITY PILLAR:
1: A Safe Community that Thrives
GOAL:
3: Implement processes that ensure a high degree of public trust and community support.

Livermore Police Department 2024 Military Equipment Inventory Description
A 36" mechanical breaching device designed to be used in any space. This tool employs the best of physics in the form of a self-contained, jack-hammer style impact ram driven by a powder-actuated cartridge. This allows a large amount of energy to be precisely directed into locking mechanisms, hinges, or braces while minimizing the chances of collateral projectiles. This device can be used by officers of all sizes. There is no swinging motion required and can significantly reduce injuries of properly trained officers.
Quantity 3 devices
Capabilities 8 shots capable of breaching steel security doors.
Expected lifespan 10+ years
Manufacturer's description
A mechanical breaching tool that bridges the gap between traditional mechanical breaching, shotgun breaching, and explosive entry. The KBT utilizes a proprietary .45 Caliber handgun blank to deliver up to 850 ft/lb. of force through a hardened steel ram. Unlike explosive or shotgun breaching, however, all of the force is mechanically driven through a ram. This means that no projectile or explosive energy leaves the device except for the force of the ram which is permanently captured in the device. The ramming surface is narrow enough to focus on a single hinge, yet powerful enough to breach steel security doors.
Purpose and authorized uses
To provide immediate entry into secure structures to protect life, property, or evidence as necessary and authorized by law.
Fiscal impact $10,628 initial cost; $2,400 annually for training and operational ammunition.
Legal and procedural rules
It is the policy of LPD to utilize the KBT only for official law enforcement purposes pursuant to State and Federal law. Refer to policies 321.

IN THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LIVERMORE, CALIFORNIA A RESOLUTION RECEIVING THE LIVERMORE POLICE DEPARTMENT’S 2024 ANNUAL MILITARY EQUIPMENT REPORT, AND DETERMINING THAT THE
EQUIPMENT IDENTIFIED IN THE REPORT COMPLIES WITH THE APPLICABLE
STANDARDS, AND DETERMINING THAT LIVERMORE MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 2.36.200 MILITARY EQUIPMENT POLICY SHOULD BE RENEWED AND
REMAIN IN EFFECT
On September 30, 2021, Governor Gavin Newsom signed into law Assembly Bill 481 (enacting Government Code section 7070, et seq.), for the use of military equipment by California law enforcement agencies.
The statutes enacted by AB 481 seek to provide transparency, oversight, and an opportunity for meaningful public input on decisions regarding whether and how military equipment is funded, acquired, or used by local police department. The Livermore Police Department is in possession of and acquires certain items of equipment that qualify as “military equipment” as defined by the applicable statutes.
On April 11, 2022, the City Council conducted a public hearing to receive input and comments on the City’s proposed military equipment policy, and thereafter introduced, and on April 25, 2022, adopted Ordinance No. 2134 adding section 2.36.200 Military Equipment Policy to the Livermore Municipal Code.
Consistent with the statutes enacted by AB 481, the Livermore Police Department prepared the 2024 Annual Military Report , attached hereto as Exhibit A, and it held a community engagement meeting on March 17, 2025, for public questions regarding the funding, acquisition, and use of the listed equipment.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Livermore, that it hereby receives the Livermore Police Department’s 2024 Annual Military Equipment Report , attached hereto as Exhibit A, and based upon that report and the information presented in the staff report for this resolution hereby determines alternatives that:
1. The equipment is necessary because there are no reasonable alternatives that can achieve the same objectives of officer and civilian safety;
2. The equipment policy (Policy 709) will safeguard the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties;
3. The equipment is reasonably cost-effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety; and,
4. The use of the equipment complies with the policy that was in effect at the time. 383
2 RESOLUTION NO. ________
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Livermore that it hereby determines that the policy set forth in Livermore Municipal Code section 2.36.200 Military Equipment Policy should be renewed and remain in effect.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 5.7
DATE:
March 24, 2025
TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Judy Erlandson, Acting Public Works Director
SUBJECT:
Resolution authorizing a supplemental appropriation to the Fleet Fund 730 in the amount of $3,113,239 to complete the planned purchase of vehicles for FY 2024-25
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends City Council adopt a resolution authorizing a supplemental appropriation to the Fleet Fund 730 in the amount of $3,113,239 to the FY 2024-25 to fund the planned purchase of the vehicles identified in the 25-year Fleet Replacement Plan.
SUMMARY
An additional $3,113,239 is required to fund the replacement of 14 planned vehicle purchases through the end of FY 2024-25. Staff is requesting supplemental appropriation from two sources; $1,873,038 of unspent funds from FYs 2022-23 and 2023-24 Fleet Fund that were not appropriated to FY 2024-25 and $1,240,201 from the Fleet Replacement Reserve Fund.
DISCUSSION
The City owns vehicles that are operated across all departments to provide essential public services.
Fleet staff purchase new vehicles guided by both the City’s Fleet Policy and the 25-year Fleet Replacement Plan. The Fleet Policy recommends vehicle replacement based on number of years in service, odometer readings, annual maintenance and operational costs, and overall condition of the vehicle. The 25-year Fleet Replacement Plan helps staff track the 400+ vehicles' purchase information, replacement parameters and budgeting, and informs the scheduled vehicle purchases each fiscal year.
The replacement of these vehicles will increase the fleet reliability Citywide, lower operating costs, and reduce the need for preventive maintenance.
A supplemental appropriation is needed to purchase the remaining 14 vehicles scheduled for replacement. The replacement vehicles include those scheduled for purchase in FY 2024-25 and those backlogged from the prior two fiscal years. The backlog of vehicles were budgeted in the prior years, but staff were not able to complete the purchases.
395
The purchases were not completed in part because of pandemic-related supply chain disruptions which caused a shortage of components and vehicles and market volatility in the fleet industry making it difficult to secure vehicles. Some vehicles ordered by staff were cancelled by manufacturers months later due to lack of inventory. Staff minimized the shortages and cancellations by pushing out purchases to extend the life of the fleet and sharing vehicles with other departments to meet short-term needs.
FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS
The funding for the supplemental appropriation is from two sources: $1,873,038 from unspent funds from FYs 2022-23 and 2023-24 Fleet Fund that were not appropriated to FY 2024-25 and $1,240,201 from the Fleet Replacement Reserve Fund. A supplemental appropriation is required to complete the purchase of vehicles scheduled through FY 2024-25.

SUMMARY
399
On September 16, 2021, the City, Satellite Affordable Housing Associates (SAHA), and Interfaith Housing (IFH) executed the Disposition, Development and Loan Agreement (DDLA) to memorialize the plan for SAHA, as lead developer of the project, to design, entitle and obtain financing for 140-units of affordable rental housing for Seniors, the "Pacific Avenue Senior Apartments", on City land located near 3800 Pacific Avenue. Since then, SAHA has assembled a variety of Federal, State and local funding sources to finance the first 79-unit phase of the project and is ready to close escrow on all financing and issue a notice to proceed to their contractor by April 1st, with construction to begin thereafter. Staff recommends City Council approve the Ground Lease, Loan and Regulatory Agreements with SAHA’s limited partnership, Pac Avenue, L.P. which will lease the site and own the project. Staff further recommends Council approve a total appropriation of $6,500,000 in State Local Housing Trust and City Affordable Housing Trust Funds for a loan to develop the project. The City's Regulatory Agreement will restrict the units to occupancy by very low-income Seniors at affordable rents for a period of 55-years.
Staff recommends approval of the City agreements and subordination and use agreements with the other lenders on the project to enable the development to proceed.
DISCUSSION
Background
In April 2018, the City of Livermore solicited proposals from qualified developers for the vacant, 3-acre +/- site located adjacent to the LARPD skate park at 3800 Pacific Avenue for development into affordable rental housing for Seniors (age 62 and older). On July 23, 2018, City Council approved execution of an Exclusive Negotiating Rights Agreement (ENRA) with Satellite Affordable Housing Associates (SAHA) and Interfaith Housing (IFH) to develop a concept and negotiate a Disposition, Development and Loan Agreement (DDLA) for the site. The ENA was executed on July 24, 2018, and further extended on July 24, 2019. On June 15, 2020, the Livermore City Council approved a General Plan Amendment and land use designation for the property to allow for housing development.
On September 16, 2021, the City, Satellite Affordable Housing Associates (SAHA), and Interfaith Housing (IFH) executed the Disposition, Development and Loan Agreement (DDLA) to memorialize the plan for SAHA, as lead developer of the project, to design, entitle and obtain financing for 140-units of affordable, senior housing, the Pacific Avenue Senior Apartments. On November 16, 2021, the City’s Planning Commission approved SAHA’s entitlements to develop senior apartments on the property, including a 79-unit building (Phase 1) and 61-unit building (Phase 2).
The DDLA was amended on December 13, 2022. Under the terms of the DDLA, the City agreed to convey the property through two, 99-year ground leases for each of the project phases. The DDLA also provided $657,000 in predevelopment loan funding to assist with costs to design and entitle the project and committed future funding to assist with development of the housing, requiring a City regulatory agreement to ensure long-term rent affordability and compliance with property management standards.
The DDLA provided the forms of future City agreements to be executed with the limited partnerships, established and controlled by SAHA, to own each project phase, in accordance with tax credit program requirements. The limited partnership established by SAHA entering into these documents and referred to as "Developer", "Owner", "Borrower", or "Lessee" is Pac Avenue, L.P.
Project Funding
SAHA will fund the first 79-unit project phase through a variety of sources including the $6,500,000 City development loan, low-income housing tax credits through the State of California, an Affordable Housing 400
Program (AHP) Loan through the Federal Home Loan Bank, Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), No Place Like Home funding from the State of California, Alameda County Measure A1 Bond Affordable Rental Housing Funds, and 20 Project Based Section 8 Vouchers from the Livermore Housing Authority. These permanent sources will fund the $52,966,260 development cost, which includes operating reserves for services and expenses related to the most deeply affordable units in the project.
On August 1, 2024, the City applied to the State of California Housing and Community Development Department’s (HCD) Local Housing Trust Fund Program (LHTF) and was awarded $5,000,000. The State’s LHTF award was matched through the value of the City’s contribution of land for the Pacific Senior Apartment project. As proposed, an additional $1,500,000 in City Affordable Housing Trust Funds would be added to the LHTF to make the total $6,500,000 development loan.

City Loan & Regulatory Agreement
The Affordable Housing Loan Agreement describes the terms under which the City will provide development loan assistance for Phase 1. City funds will be drawn during construction and will remain in the project as permanent financing for a term of 55 years. The loan will accrue interest at a three percent (3%), simple, annual rate which is the City’s standard rate for similar affordable housing projects. The City’s $657,000 predevelopment loan, previously provided through the DDLA, will be documented through an amended and restated promissory note to match interest and payment terms with a new promissory note documenting the $6,500,000 development loan, together secured through a single leasehold deed of trust totaling $7,157,000.
City subsidy on a per unit basis is $90,594, which is reasonable for the project size and type based on other City-supported affordable housing developments. Payments on the City loan would be variable and based on the availability of “residual receipts” or remaining cash after all operating expenses are paid and distributions are made to the project partners. Residual receipts payments are common “soft debt” terms provided by County and City lenders. Flexible payment loans enable project developers to keep private, fixed-debt payments low, so that deeply affordable rental properties with limited tenant rent revenues can pay for operations.
As a condition of receiving City loan assistance, the project owner will enter into a City Regulatory 401
Agreement, which describes use, affordability requirements, and property management standards.
Occupancy in the project will be restricted to extremely low and very low-income seniors earning between 30% of Area Median Income and 50% of Area Median Income (AMI), and rents will be restricted to be affordable at those income levels. For example, current fair market rent established by the Livermore Housing Authority for a one-bedroom apartment in Livermore is $2,421, whereas project rents for a one bedroom will range from approximately $935 to $1560. Income and rent restrictions will be in place for 55 years from the end of construction. The City will monitor compliance with the agreement annually. The City’s restrictions will also require the project offer local resident and Veteran’s application preferences, subject to conformance with fair housing law and the leasing requirements of other approved lenders.
Under the proposed HUD-City subordination agreement, the City’s Deed of Trust would be subordinate to the HUD loan and regulatory documents, including the HUD deed of trust, regulatory agreement, use agreement, and UCC financing statement for the Capital Advance Mixed Financing Program.
The project also received an award of $6,234,012 in Alameda County A1 Bond funds from the City base allocation and East County rental housing development funding pools. The County will secure its loan through a deed of trust and regulatory agreement that will be recorded to memorialize the County’s affordability restrictions. Under the proposed City-County subordination agreement, the City’s Regulatory Agreement would be subordinate only to the County’s regulatory agreement, while the City’s Deed of Trust would be superior to the County’s deed of trust. Subordination to the County’s regulatory agreement does not limit the City’s ability to enforce its regulatory agreement. Through the County’s regulatory agreement, 24 units will be reserved for formerly homeless Seniors. The County’s funding will be layered with State No Place Like Home funding to provide supportive services for those units.
The project has received a commitment of $30,605,014 for a construction funding loan to be provided by First Citizen’s Bank and Trust (the “Bank”). This private loan requires subordination of the City’s Deed of Trust to the Bank deed of trust, however the City’s Regulatory Agreement will not be subordinated. The Bank loan will be carried only during the construction period and then repaid at the close of escrow on permanent financing with some of the other sources previously described.
City Ground Lease
The proposed 99-year Ground Lease for Phase 1 will allow the project owner with the long-term leasehold interest necessary to obtain financing to construct the 79-unit building and associated improvements on the City’s property. The long-term ground lease extends the maximum possible term to the developer and provides lenders with the security of a long-term interest in financing the improvements. The City’s loan interests in the buildings also are secured through the leasehold interest provided to the developer. The extended lease term also allowed the City to use the value of land as required matching funds for the $5,000,000 LHTF Grant.
Nominal annual ground lease payments of $1 per year are required so long as the property complies with the affordability requirements to restrict 100% of the units for affordable Senior housing for the 55- year affordability term, as previously described. Following the 55-year term, the property will be required to reserve at least 49% of units at rents affordable to Seniors with incomes no greater than 60% of Area Median Income. It is anticipated that during the 99-year period, the building and improvements will be refinanced and renovated thus extending the opportunity to continue offering the site as 100% affordable Senior housing.
402
Attached to the Ground Lease is a lease addendum, required by HUD, as a condition of receiving the Section 202 Capital Advance. As previously noted, the project received a competitive award of funding from the U.S. Department of Urban Development (HUD) Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program (“HUD 202”). This program will provide an interest free capital advance for construction and ongoing project rental assistance to fund the difference between owner operating costs and tenant rent contributions, thus enabling the project to keep rents affordable for extremely low-income Seniors.
Participation by HUD is further conditioned upon the City signing onto a program use agreement between HUD and the Pac Avenue L.P., in substantially the form attached to the Resolution as Exhibit G, which will ensure that the project will be used as affordable housing for seniors for a term of 55 years.
The City Manager would have authority to sign other agreements under her authority to consent as described in the Lease and to carry out activities described in the Lease including executing any addenda, amendments and additional agreements so long as they do not substantially affect the City’s rights and obligations described in the Lease. Any substantive modifications to the lease in the future would need approval by the City, Lessee, and other lenders who have approved loans on the property.
If approved by City Council, SAHA will close escrow on construction financing and will issue a notice to proceed to their contractor by April 1, 2025, with construction to start thereafter. Construction of Phase 1 is expected to complete within 24 months of commencement.
FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS
No general funds will be allocated to this project. If approved, the City’s $6,500,000 development loan will be funded through an appropriation of $5,000,000 in State Local Housing Trust Funds (LHTF), and $1,500,000 in City Affordable Housing Trust Funds. Annual monitoring costs for the loan and regulatory agreement will be paid for by the borrower in accordance with what is set forth in the City’s master fee schedule. The Ground Lease will generate a nominal amount of $1.00 per year. All fees and costs associated with the improvements and operation of the development, including any fees or assessments, will be the responsibility of the lessee.

IN THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LIVERMORE, CALIFORNIA
A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF AN AFFORDABLE HOUSING
LOAN AGREEMENT, AN AFFORDABLE HOUSING REGULATORY AGREEMENT, AND A GROUND LEASE WITH PAC AVENUE, L.P. FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PACIFIC AVENUE SENIOR APARTMENTS PHASE 1, AND APPROPRIATING $5,000,000 IN STATE LOCAL HOUSING TRUST FUNDS (LHTF) AND $1,500,000 IN
CITY AFFORDABLE HOUSING TRUST FUNDS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT LOAN Satellite Affordable Housing Associates (“SAHA”) is a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide quality affordable homes and services that empower people and strengthen neighborhoods.
In January 2018, the City Council directed staff to take the necessary steps to identify a developer for an approximately 3.6 acre site on Pacific Avenue (the “Property”) to develop an affordable senior housing project with a preference for veterans (the “Project”).
In April 2018, the City issued a request for qualifications seeking capable developers who could meet the stated project goals of providing an innovative development plan for the site that includes 100-140 units of affordable senior housing (including a preference for veterans, and services for seniors with disabilities and special needs).
On July 23, 2018, the competitive process concluded with the City Council’s selection of SAHA and Interfaith Housing (IFH) as the developer for the Project. The City then entered into an Exclusive Negotiating Rights Agreement (ENRA) that allowed for the predevelopment site analysis, project scoping, and determination of a preliminary site plan.
On September 13, 2021, the City Council authorized the execution of a Disposition Development and Loan Agreement (DDLA) with SAHA and IFH to award a 99-year lease to develop the site to construct up to 140 units of senior, multi-family rental housing over two phases of development, which will be affordable for households with incomes no greater than 60% of Area Median Income for Alameda County, and at least 49% of all units restricted for seniors earning up to 50% of Area median income. The DDLA set forth the terms and conditions the City Council determined to be best suited for the provision of the Project and its affordable housing as required by California Government Code Section 37364.
On November 16, 2021, the City approved land use entitlements for the Project for a Phase 1 development of 79-units and a Phase 2 development consisting of 61-units.
SAHA has assembled a variety of Federal, State and local funding sources to finance the first 79-unit phase of the project and is ready to close escrow on all financing and start construction, so now the City and SAHA’s limited partnership which will lease 405
2 RESOLUTION NO. ________
the site and own the project, Pac Avenue, L.P, wish to enter into the Ground Lease, Loan and Regulatory Agreements and approve and execute subordination and use agreements with the other project lenders to enable the development to proceed.
The proposed loan and ground lease are for the Phase 1 development of 79-units and are conditioned upon the execution of the City Regulatory Agreement, that describes use, affordability requirements, and property management standards. The Regulatory Agreement requires occupancy in the project to be restricted to extremely low and very low-income seniors earning between 30% of Area Median Income and 50% of Area Median Income (AMI), and rents will be restricted to be affordable at those income levels.
Income and rent restrictions will be in place for 55 years from the end of construction. The City will monitor compliance with the agreement annually. The City’s restrictions will also require the project offer local resident and Veteran’s application preferences, subject to conformance with fair housing law and the leasing requirements of other approved lenders. Following the 55-year term, the property will be required to reserve at least 49% of units at rents affordable to Seniors with incomes no greater than 60% of Area Median Income. It is anticipated that during the 99-year period, the building and improvements will be refinanced and renovated thus extending the opportunity to continue offering the site as 100% affordable.
The City also desires to appropriate $6,500,000 in State Local Housing Trust and City Affordable Housing Trust Funds to fund the loan to SAHA to develop the Project.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Livermore that:
1. The City Manager, or her designee, is authorized to execute an Affordable Housing Loan Agreement and an Affordable Housing Regulatory Agreement on behalf of the City with Pac Avenue, L.P. in substantially the same form as the agreements attached to this resolution as Exhibits A and B, respectively, for the development of the Pacific Avenue Senior Apartments Phase 1, subject to the City Attorney’s approval as to form.

Upon the occurrence of any such Event of Default, City may terminate such license without notice to or demand upon Borrower and without regard to the adequacy of any security for the indebtedness hereby secured, and may either in person, by agent, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court, enter upon and take possession of the Property or any part thereof, and sue for or otherwise collect such rents, issues, and profits, including those past due and unpaid, and apply the same, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to any indebtedness secured hereby, and in such order as City may determine. City’s right to the rents, royalties, issues, profits, revenue, income and proceeds of the Property does not depend upon whether or not City takes possession of the Property. The entering upon and taking possession of the Property, the collection of such rents, issues, and profits, and the application thereof as aforesaid, shall not cure or waive any default or notice of default hereunder or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice. If an Event of Default occurs while City is in possession of all or part of the Property and/or is collecting and applying Rents as permitted under this Deed of Trust, City, Trustee and any receiver shall nevertheless be entitled to exercise and invoke every right and remedy afforded any of them under this Deed of Trust and at law or in equity, including the right to exercise the power of sale granted hereunder. Regardless of whether or not City, in person or by agent, takes actual possession of the Land or the Improvements, City shall not be deemed to be a “mortgagee in possession,” shall not be responsible for performing any obligation of Borrower under any Lease, shall not be liable in any manner for the Property, or the use, occupancy, enjoyment or operation of any part of it, and shall not be responsible for any waste committed by Borrower, lessees or any third parties, or for dangerous or defective condition of the Property or any negligence in the management, repair or control of the Property. Absent City’s written consent, Borrower shall not accept prepayment of Rents for any rental period exceeding one month.
4. Security Agreement. Borrower intends this Deed of Trust to create a lien on the Property, and an absolute assignment of the Rents and Leases, all in favor of City. To the extent that any Property may be or be determined to be personal property, Borrower
EXHIBIT A
473
5 as debtor hereby grants to City as secured party a security interest in all such Property to secure payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. This Deed of Trust constitutes a security agreement under the California Uniform Commercial Code, as amended or recodified from time to time (the “UCC”), covering all such Property. To the extent such Property is not real property encumbered by the lien granted above, and is not absolutely assigned by the assignment set forth above, Borrower intends that such Property shall constitute "proceeds, products, offspring, rents, or profits" (as defined in and for the purposes of Section 552(b) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, as such section may be modified or supplemented) of the Land and Improvements.
5. Financing Statements. Pursuant to the UCC, Borrower, as debtor, hereby authorizes City, as secured party, to file such financing statements and amendments thereof and such continuation statements with respect thereto as City may deem appropriate to perfect and preserve City's security interest in the Property and Rents, without requiring any signature or further authorization by Borrower. If requested by City, Borrower shall pay all fees and costs that City may incur in filing such documents in public offices and in obtaining such record searches as City may reasonably require.
If any financing statement or other document is filed in the records normally pertaining to personal property, that filing shall not be construed as in any way derogating from or impairing this Deed of Trust or the rights or obligations of the parties under it.
Everything used in connection with the Property and/or adapted for use therein and/or which is described or reflected in this Deed of Trust is, and at all times and for all purposes and in all proceedings both legal or equitable shall be regarded as part of the estate encumbered by this Deed of Trust irrespective of whether (i) any such item is physically attached to the Improvements, (ii) serial numbers are used for the better identification of certain equipment items capable of being thus identified in a recital contained herein or in any list filed with City, or (iii) any such item is referred to or reflected in any such financing statement so filed at any time. Similarly, the mention in any such financing statement of (1) rights in or to the proceeds of any fire and/or hazard insurance policy, or (2) any award in eminent domain proceedings for a taking or for lessening of value, or (3) Borrower's interest as lessor in any present or future lease or rights to income growing out of the use and/or occupancy of the property conveyed hereby, whether pursuant to lease or otherwise, shall not be construed as in any way altering any of the rights of City as determined by this instrument or impugning the priority of City’s lien granted hereby or by any other recorded document. Such mention in any financing statement is declared to be solely for the protection of City in the event any court or judge shall at any time hold, with respect to the matters set forth in the foregoing clauses (1), (2), and (3), that notice of City's priority of interest is required in order to be effective against a particular class of persons, including but not limited to the federal government and any subdivisions or entity of the federal government.
6. Fixture Filing. This Deed of Trust is intended to be and constitutes a fixture filing pursuant to the provisions of the UCC with respect to all of the Property constituting fixtures, is being recorded as a fixture financing statement and filing under the UCC, and covers property, goods and equipment which are or are to become fixtures related to the Land and the Improvements. Borrower covenants and agrees that this Deed of
EXHIBIT A
474
6 Trust is to be filed in the real estate records of Alameda County and shall also operate from the date of such filing as a fixture filing in accordance with Section 9502 and other applicable provisions of the UCC. This Deed of Trust shall also be effective as a financing statement covering minerals or the like (including oil and gas) and accounts subject to the UCC, as amended. Borrower shall be deemed to be the "debtor" and City shall be deemed to be the "secured party" for all purposes under the UCC.

EXHIBIT A
478

If any Hazardous Material is discharged, released, dumped, or spilled in, on, under, or about the Land and results in any contamination of the Land or adjacent property, or otherwise results in the release or discharge of Hazardous Materials in, on, under or from the Land, Borrower shall promptly take all actions at its sole expense as are necessary to comply with all Environmental Laws (as defined below).
To the greatest extent permitted by law, Borrower shall indemnify, defend, and hold City and its elected and appointed officials, officers, agents and employees (collectively, “Indemnitees”) harmless from and against any and all loss, claim, liability, damage, demand, judgment, order, penalty, fine, injunctive or other relief, cost, expense (including reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys, expert witnesses, and other professionals advising or assisting City), action, or cause of action (all of the foregoing, hereafter individually “Claim” and collectively “Claims”) arising in connection with the breach of Borrower’s covenants and obligations set forth in this Section 7.11 or otherwise arising in connection with the presence or release of Hazardous Materials in, on, under, or from the Property,
provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to
indemnification under this Section for matters caused by such Indemnitee's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The foregoing indemnity includes, without limitation, all costs of investigation, assessment, containment, removal, remediation of any kind, and disposal of Hazardous Materials, all costs of determining whether the Land is in compliance with Environmental Laws, all costs associated with bringing the Land into compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, and all costs associated with claims for damages or injury to persons, property, or natural resources.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower shall, at Borrower’s own cost and expense, do all of the following:
a. pay or satisfy any judgment or decree that may be entered against any Indemnitee or Indemnitees in any legal or administrative proceeding incident to any matters against which Indemnitees are entitled to be indemnified under this Deed of Trust;
b. reimburse Indemnitees for any expenses paid or incurred in connection with any matters against which Indemnitees are entitled to be indemnified under this Deed of Trust; and
c. reimburse Indemnitees for any and all expenses, including without limitation out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable fees of attorneys and expert witnesses, paid or incurred in connection with the enforcement by Indemnitees of their rights under this Deed of Trust, or in monitoring and participating in any legal or administrative proceeding.
EXHIBIT A
479
11 Borrower’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnitees shall not be limited or impaired by any of the following or by any failure of Borrower to receive notice of or consideration for any of the following: (i) any amendment or modification of any City Document; (ii) any extensions of time for performance required by any City Document; (iii) any provision in any of the City Documents limiting City's recourse to property securing the Secured Obligations, or limiting the personal liability of Borrower, or any other party for payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations; (iv) the accuracy or inaccuracy of any representation and warranty made by Borrower under this Deed of Trust or by Borrower or any other party under any City Document, (v) the release of Borrower or any other person, by City or by operation of law, from performance of any obligation under any City Document; (vi) the release or substitution in whole or in part of any security for the Secured Obligations; and (vii) City’s failure to properly perfect any lien or security interest given as security for the Secured Obligations.
The provisions of this Section 7.11 shall be in addition to any and all other obligations and liabilities that Borrower may have under applicable law, and each Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section without regard to whether City or that Indemnitee has exercised any rights against the Property or any other security, pursued any rights against any guarantor or other party, or pursued any other rights available under any City Document or applicable law. The obligations of Borrower to indemnify the Indemnitees under this Section shall survive any repayment or discharge of the Secured Obligations, any foreclosure proceeding, any foreclosure sale, any delivery of any deed in lieu of foreclosure, and any release of record of the lien of this Deed of Trust.
Without limiting any of the remedies provided in this Deed of Trust, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that each of the provisions in this Section 7.11 is an environmental provision (as defined in Section 736(f)(2) of the California Code of Civil Procedure) made by Borrower relating to real property security (the “Environmental Provisions”), and that Borrower's failure to comply with any of the Environmental Provisions will be a breach of contract that will entitle City to pursue the remedies provided by Section 736 of the California Code of Civil Procedure (“Section 736”) for the recovery of damages and for the enforcement of the Environmental Provisions.
Pursuant to Section 736, City's action for recovery of damages or enforcement of the Environmental Provisions shall not constitute an action within the meaning of Section 726(a) of the California Code of Civil Procedure or constitute a money judgment for a deficiency or a deficiency judgment within the meaning of Sections 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726(b) of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

8.2 Remedies. Subject to the applicable notice and cure provisions set forth herein, at any time after an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, City and Trustee shall be entitled to invoke any and all of the rights and remedies described below, and may exercise any one or more or all, of the remedies set forth in any City Document, and any other remedy existing at law or in equity or by statute. All of City’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative, and the exercise of any one or more of them shall not constitute an election of remedies.

If City so requests, Borrower
EXHIBIT A
486
18 shall assemble all of the Property that has been removed from the Land and make all of it available to City at the site of the Land. Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints City as Borrower's attorney-in-fact to perform such acts and execute such documents as City in its sole discretion may consider to be appropriate in connection with taking these measures, including endorsement of Borrower's name on any instruments.
d. UCC Remedies. City may exercise any or all of the remedies granted to a secured party under the UCC.
e. Judicial Action. City may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to foreclose this Deed of Trust in the manner provided by law for foreclosure of mortgages on real property and/or to obtain specific enforcement of any of the covenants or agreements of this Deed of Trust. f. Power of Sale. Under the power of sale hereby granted, City shall have the discretionary right to cause some or all of the Property, including any Property which constitutes personal property, to be sold or otherwise disposed of in any combination and in any manner permitted by applicable law.
8.3 Power of Sale. If City elects to invoke the power of sale hereby granted, City shall execute or cause the Trustee to execute a written notice of such default and of its election to cause the Property to be sold to satisfy the obligations hereof, and shall cause such notice to be recorded in the office of the Recorder of each County wherein the Property or some part thereof is situated as required by law and this Deed of Trust.
Prior to publication of the notice of sale, City shall deliver to Trustee this Deed of Trust and the Note or other evidence of indebtedness which is secured hereby, together with a written request for the Trustee to proceed with a sale of the Property, pursuant to the provisions of law and this Deed of Trust.
Notice of sale having been given as then required by law, and not less than the time then required by law having elapsed after recordation of such notice of default, Trustee, without demand on Borrower, shall sell the Property at the time and place fixed by it in the notice of sale, either as a whole or in separate parcels and in such order as it may determine, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash in lawful money of the United States, payable at time of sale. Trustee may, and at City’s request shall, postpone sale of all or any portion of the Property by public announcement at such time and place of sale, and from time to time thereafter may postpone such sale by public announcement at the time and place fixed by the preceding postponement. Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser its deed conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in such deed of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, including Borrower, Trustee, or City, may purchase at such sale.
After deducting all costs, fees, and expenses of Trustee and of the trust hereby created, including reasonable attorneys’ fees in connection with sale, Trustee shall apply the
EXHIBIT A
487
19 proceeds of sale to payment of all sums advanced or expended by City or Trustee under the terms hereof and all outstanding sums then secured hereby, and the remainder, if any, to the person or persons legally entitled thereto.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that regardless of whether or not a default has occurred hereunder, if an Event of Default has occurred under the City Documents, and if in connection with such Event of Default City exercises its right to foreclose on the Property, then: (i) City shall be entitled to declare all amounts due under the Note immediately due and payable, and (ii) the proceeds of any sale of the Property in connection with such foreclosure shall be used to pay all Secured Obligations, including without limitation, the outstanding principal balance and all other amounts due under the Note.
At any foreclosure sale, any person, including Borrower, Trustee or City, may bid for and acquire the Property or any part of it to the extent permitted by then applicable law.
Instead of paying cash for such property, City may settle for the purchase price by crediting the sales price of the property against the following obligations:
a. First, the portion of the Secured Obligations attributable to the expenses of sale, costs of any action and any other sums for which Borrower is obligated to pay or reimburse City or Trustee under Section 7.12(c); and b. Second, the remaining balance of all other Secured Obligations in any order and proportions as City in its sole discretion may choose.
8.4 Borrower’s Right to Reinstate. Notwithstanding City’s acceleration of the sums secured by this Deed of Trust, Borrower shall have the right to have any proceedings begun by City to enforce this Deed of Trust discontinued at any time prior to five days before sale of the Property pursuant to the power of sale contained in this Deed of Trust or at any time prior to entry of a judgment enforcing this Deed of Trust if:
(a) Borrower pays City all sums which would be then due under the City Documents if the Secured Obligations had no acceleration provision; (b) Borrower cures all breaches of any other covenants or agreements of Borrower contained in this Deed of Trust; (c) Borrower pays all reasonable expenses incurred by City and Trustee in enforcing the covenants and agreements of Borrower contained in this Deed of Trust, and in enforcing City’s and Trustee’s remedies as provided herein, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees; and (d) Borrower takes such action as City may reasonably require to assure that the lien of this Deed of Trust, City’s interest in the Property and Borrower’s obligation to pay the sums secured by this Deed of Trust shall continue unimpaired. Upon such payment and cure by Borrower, this Deed of Trust and the obligations secured hereby shall remain in full force and effect as if no acceleration had occurred.
9. Borrower's Waivers. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower waives: (a) all statutes of limitations as a defense to any action or proceeding brought against Borrower by City; (b) the benefit of all laws now existing or which may hereafter be enacted providing for any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, redemption or

10.6 Governing Law; Severability; Interpretation. This Deed of Trust shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to principles of conflicts of laws. Borrower agrees that any controversy arising under or in relation to this Deed of Trust shall be litigated exclusively in the jurisdiction where the Land is located (the “Property Jurisdiction”). The state and federal courts and authorities with jurisdiction in the Property Jurisdiction shall have exclusive jurisdiction over all controversies which shall arise under or in relation to the City Documents. Borrower irrevocably consents to service, jurisdiction, and venue of such courts for any such litigation, and waives any other venue to which it might be entitled by virtue of domicile, habitual residence or otherwise. If any provision of this Deed of Trust is held unenforceable or void, that provision shall be deemed severable from the remaining provisions, and shall in no way affect the validity of this Deed of Trust. The captions used in this Deed of Trust are for convenience only and are not intended to affect the interpretation or construction of the provisions herein contained. In this Deed of Trust, whenever the context so requires, the singular number includes the plural.
10.7 Waiver, Modification and Amendment. Any waiver by City of any obligation of Borrower hereunder must be in writing, and no waiver shall be construed as a continuing waiver. No waiver shall be implied from any delay or failure by City or Trustee to take action on account of any default of Borrower.

No amendment to or modification of this Deed of Trust shall be effective unless and until such amendment or modification is in writing, executed by Borrower and City. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, City’s acceptance of payment of any sum secured hereby after its due date shall not constitute a waiver by City of its right either to require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured or to declare default for failure so to pay.
10.8 Action by City. Except as may be otherwise specifically provided herein, whenever any approval, notice, direction, or consent by the City is required or permitted under this Agreement, such action shall be in writing, and such action may be given, made or taken by City’s City Manager or by any person who shall have been designated by City’s City Manager, without further approval by the governing board of City.

In the event of a foreclosure of City’s interest under this Deed of Trust or delivery by the Borrower of a deed in lieu thereof (collectively, a “Foreclosure”), the following rule shall apply:

The lien of this Deed of Trust shall encumber all of Borrower's rights and interests under and in connection with the Ground Lease, including without limitation renewal and extension rights and purchase options (if any), all of which rights shall be collectively referred to herein as the "Leasehold".
11.1 Intentionally omitted.

Any acquisition of the landlord's interest in the Ground Lease by Borrower or any affiliate of Borrower shall be accomplished in such a manner as to avoid a merger of the interests of landlord and tenant unless City consents to such merger in writing.
11.5 If Borrower acquires fee title to any portion of the real property subject to the Ground Lease, this Deed of Trust shall automatically be a lien on such fee title.
11.6 Except as permitted by the City Documents, Borrower shall not subordinate the Ground Lease or Leasehold to any deed of trust or other encumbrance of, or lien on, any interest in the real property subject to such Leasehold without the prior written consent of City.

2 This Affordable Housing Regulatory Agreement and Declaration of Restrictive Covenants (this “Agreement”) is entered into effective as of _________________, 2025 (“Effective Date”) by and between the City of Livermore, a municipal corporation (“City”) and Pac Avenue, L.P., a California limited partnership (“Borrower”). The City and the Borrower are collectively referred to herein as the “Parties.”
R E C I T A L S
A. Borrower owns a leasehold interest in that certain real property located adjacent to Sunken Gardens Park (3800 Pacific Avenue) at the eastern terminus of Pacific Avenue in Livermore, California, Alameda County Assessor Parcel No. 10858, in the Official Records of Alameda County, Book 360, Pages 87- 89 of Map, subdividing the real property two parcels, Parcels 2 & 4. The Borrower intends to lease Parcel 2 for Phase 1 of Project, and more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Property”). For purposes of clarity this Agreement shall only encumber Borrower’s leasehold interest in the Property and not the City’s fee interest in the land underlying the Property.
B. City and Borrower have entered into an Affordable Housing Loan Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) dated ___________________ and a Ground Lease dated ________________ concurrently herewith. Borrower will develop, own, and operate a 79 -unit affordable housing development for seniors on the Property (“ Phase 1” or the “Project”). Phase 1 is part of a two - phased project to be known as the “Pacific Avenue Project”. The second phase of the Pacific Avenue Project is anticipated to be a 61-unit affordable housing development for seniors (“Phase 2”). This Agreement only encumbers Phase 1. Capitalized terms used without definition herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement.
C. The Loan Agreement provides that the Restricted Units to be developed on the Property will be required to be available to Eligible Households at Affordable Rents in accordance with this Agreement for a period of not less than the term of fifty-five (55) years.
D. The City recognizes there is a shortage of affordable housing and, in particular, low-income Seniors face barriers that inhibit equal access to housing. Therefore, reserving affordable units for Seniors and providing services that allow them to live independently is needed to offer equal access to housing.
E. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Loan Agreement, City has agreed to provide a development loan in an amount not to exceed Seven Million One Hundred Fifty - Seven Thousand Dollars ( $7,157,000.00), (the “Loan” or “City Loan”, which financing was apportioned as (i) Six Hundred Fifty- Seven Thousand Dollars ($657,000) in predevelopment financing and (ii) Six Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($6,500,000) in permanent development financing. As a condition precedent to the funding of the Loan, City requires the Project to be subject to the terms, conditions, and restrictions set forth herein.
F. P
ursuant to the Loan Agreement , Borrower has executed and deliver ed to City Secured Promissory Notes (the “ A&R Predevelopment Note” and “ Development Note ” or “Notes”) to evidence Borrower’s obligation to repay the Loan. The Notes are secured by a Leasehold Deed of Trust, Assignment of Rents, Security Agreement and Fixture Filing executed

2. Use and Affordability Restrictions. Borrower hereby covenants and agrees, for itself and its successors and assigns, that the Property shall be used solely for the operation of a multifamily rental housing development for Seniors in compliance with the Loan Agreement , and the requirements set forth herein. Borrower represents and warrants that it has not entered into any agreement that would restrict or compromise its ability to comply with the occupancy and affordability restrictions set forth in this Agreement, and Borrower covenants that it shall not enter into any agreement that is inconsistent with such restrictions without the express written consent of City. The Borrower agrees to comply with affordability restrictions as published annually by the California Department of Housing and Community Development and not just the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development exclusively.
2.1 Affordability and Occupancy Requirements of the City Restricted Units .
Throughout the term of this Agreement (as defined in Section 4.1 below) Borrower agrees that: (i) not less than 16 of the residential units shall be both Rent Restricted and occupied (or if vacant, available for occupancy) by Eligible Households whose gross household income is no greater than twenty percent (20 %) of AMI, (ii) not less than 9 of the residential units shall be both Rent Restricted and occupied (or if vacant, available for occupancy) by Eligible Households whose gross household income is no greater than thirty percent (30%) of AMI; (iii) 43 of the residential units shall be both Rent Restricted and occupied (or if vacant, available for occupancy) by Eligible Households whose gross household income is no greater than fifty percent (50%) of AMI, for a total of 68 of the residential units in the Project restricted to extremely low and very low income households; (iv) 10 of the residential units shall be both Rent Restricted and occupied (or if vacant, available for occupancy) by Eligible Households whose gross household income is no greater than sixty percent (60%) of AMI (“Restrictive Units); and (v) all other units, except for one (1) of the residential units in the Project which shall be a manager’s unit for which rent will not be restricted, will be restricted by the TCAC restrictive covenant to be recorded when the units are placed-in- service by TCAC’s definition (“ TCAC Units”). The Restricted Units shall generally reflect the unit bedroom mix of all of the units in the Project. Maximum unit occupancy standards shall be established according to TCAC regulations or in the absence of such regulations shall be two persons per bedroom plus one additional person. A total of 78 units will be allocated to the Local Housing Trust Fund (LHTF).

City
has applied for and received an award of State LHTF to be used for the Development Loan for the Projec t and as a requirement of that program at least 30% of LHTF program funds and City’s matching funds (demonstrated through the City’s application to the State) must be allocated towards ELI Households (30% AMI or less); no more than 20% of program funds and matching funds may be allocated towards Moderate Income Households (Between 80% and 120% AMI), the remainder of program funds and matching funds may be alloc ated toward Lower Income Households (Between 30% to 80% AMI) The City’s affordability restrictions described herein are intended to conform to the LHTF program requirements.
In the event that recertification of tenant incomes indicates that the number of Restricted Units actually occupied by Eligible Households falls below the number reserved for each income group as specified in this Section 2.1, Borrower shall rectify the condition by renting the next available dwelling unit(s) in the Project to Eligible Household(s) until the required income mix is achieved. A dwelling unit shall qualify as “ Rent Restricted ” if the gross rent charged for such unit does not exceed the Affordable Rent for the applicable household income category as set forth in Section [2.2].
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if other Project lenders, Project investors, or regulatory agencies restrict a greater number of units than restricted by this Agreement or require stricter household income eligibility or affordability requirements than those imposed hereby, the requirements of such other lenders, investors or regulatory agencies shall prevail, including without limitation, the rent and occupancy requirements imposed in connection with the use of project based vouchers or other rent subsidies.
2.1.1. P roject Based Section 8 Units. To the extent allowed under the rules and regulations applicable to such program, Borrower agrees that Project Based Section 8 assistance received for the Project shall be prioritized to those Restricted Units serving the lowest income tenants in the Project. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, for units that are subsidized with Section 8 project-based vouchers, the rules and regulations applicable to such program shall prevail with respect to the setting of rents, implementation of occupancy requirements, and determination of gross household income.
2.1.3 Disabled Persons Occupancy.
a) Borrower shall cause the Project to be operated at all times in compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local disabled persons accessibility requirements including, but not limited to the applicable provisions of: (i) the Unruh Act, (ii) the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, (iii) Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, (iv) the United States Fair
EXHIBIT A

7 Housing Act, as amended, (v) the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990, and (vi) Chapters 11A and 11B of Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations, which relate to disabled persons access (collectively, the "Accessibility Requirements"). b) Borrower shall indemnify, protect, hold harmless and defend the City , and its board members, officers and employees, from all suits, actions, claims, causes of action, costs, demands, judgments and liens arising out of Borrower's failure to comply with the Accessibility Requirements. This obligation to indemnify survives termination of this Agreement, repayment of the City Loan and the reconveyance of the Deed of Trust.
2.1.4 Loss of Subsidy.
It is anticipated that certain Units in the Project (the "Subsidy Units") will receive Project-Based Section 8 or other rental subsidies (the "Rental Subsidy") throughout the Term, as reflected in the Financing Plan for the Project. If any change in federal law occurs, or any action (or inaction) by Congress or any federal or state agency occurs, which results in a material reduction, termination or nonrenewal of the Rental Subsidy through no fault of the Borrower, such that the Rental Subsidy shown on the Finance Plan for the Project approved by the City is no longer available, Borrower shall, in anticipation of such loss in Rental Subsidy, use good faith
efforts for a period of ninety (90) days, to identify and obtain alternative sources of rental subsidies and shall provide the City progress reports on Borrower's efforts to identify and obtain alternative sources of rental subsidies. If at the end of such ninety (90) day period Borrower is unable to secure an alternate source of rental subsidy, notwithstanding Section 2.2, Borrower may increase the rent on one or more of the City Restricted Units that overlap with a Subsidy Unit, up to sixty percent (60%) of AMI (“TCAC Maximum Rent Limit”), subject to the following requirements:
a) Any such rent increase must be pursuant to a transition plan approved by the City showing how the rent increase will be implemented, and which Restricted Units will be subject to the increase, and, if applicable, be consistent with remedial measures set forth in California Code of Regulations Title 4, Division 17, Chapter 1, Section 10337(a)(3) or successor regulation applicable to California's Federal and State Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program;
b) At the time Borrower requests an increase in the Restricted Unit rent, Borrower shall provide the City with a copy of the proposed Annual Operating Budget showing the impact of the loss or reduction of the Rental Subsidy; c) Any subsequent rent increases remain subject to Section [2.2] above; and, d) The
number of Restricted Units subject to the rent increase and the level of rent increase may not be greater than the amount required to ensure that the Project generates sufficient income to cover its operating costs and debt service as shown on the Annual Operating Budget, and as is necessary to maintain the financial stability of the Development.

8 e) Upon r
eceipt of any alternative rental subsidies, Borrower shall reduce the rents on the Restricted Units back to the Affordable Rents set out in Section
2.1, to the extent that the alternative rental subsidies provide sufficient income to cover the operating costs and debt service of the Development as shown on the Annual Operating Budget.
2.1.5 Rent Increases on Foreclosure.
Notwithstanding this Section 2.1, in the event that a Senior Lender (as defined in the Loan Agreement) foreclosures on the Project (or receives a deed in lieu of foreclosure), the Rents on one or more of the Restricted Units may be increased up to the TCAC Maximum Rent Limit to maintain the financial feasibility of the Project, subject to the following requirements:
a) Any such rent increase must be pursuant to a transition plan approved by the City showing: (i) how the rent increase will be phased-in; (ii) which Restricted Units will be subject to the increase; and (iii) the operating income and expenses for the Project comparing the current rent structure to the proposed rent structure;
b) The number of Restricted Units subject to the rent increase and the level of rent increase may not be greater than the amount required to ensure that the Project generates sufficient income to cover its operating costs and debt service, and as is necessary to maintain the financial stability of the Development; and
c) The rent increase may occur only at the time of renewal of the term of the lease of an existing Tenant or the time of leasing a Restricted Unit to a new tenant. Any subsequent rent increases remain subject to Section 2.1 above.
2.2 Rents for Restricted Units; Unit Sizes. For all Restricted Units rents shall be limited to Affordable Rents for households of the applicable income limit and presumed household size in accordance with Section 2.1. In the event that TCAC no longer publishes the income and rent information that this Agreement contemplates that TCAC will publish, respectively, the City shall provide Borrower with other income and rent determinations which are reasonably similar with respect to methods of calculation to those previously published by TCAC, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no tenant qualifying for a Restricted Unit shall be denied continued occupancy of a unit in the Project because, after admission, such tenant's household income increases to exceed the qualifying limit for such Restricted Unit. A household which at initial occupancy qualifies in a particular income category shall be treated as continuing to be of such income category so long as the household’s gross income does not exceed one hundred forty percent (140%) of the applicable income limit. In the event the gross household income of a household that qualified at the applicable income limit at initial occupancy exceeds the applicable income limit for a unit, that unit will continue to be considered as satisfying the applicable income limit if the unit remains Rent-Restricted. In the event a tenant’s household income exceeds the limits specified in this Section, Borrower shall apply the rules applicable to the Project pursuant to Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and the
EXHIBIT A
505
135.054/633510
6017309
9 federal Regulations applicable thereto. In the event of inconsistency between the provisions of this Section [2.2] and the rules applicable to the Project in connection with low-income housing tax credits, the rules applicable pursuant to such financing source shall prevail. a) For the purpose of determining whether a household is an Eligible Household, gross household income shall be determined in accordance with TCAC regulations and federal regulations applicable to low-income housing tax credits. b) Subject to Section 2.3(a), if, upon recertification of the income of a Tenant of a City-Assisted Unit, Borrower determines that a Tenant of a City-Assisted Unit has an Adjusted Income exceeding the maximum qualifying income for a 50% AMI Household, such Tenant shall be permitted to continue occupying the City- Assisted Unit and upon sixty (60) days written notice, t he Rent may be increased to one-twelfth (1/12th) of thirty percent (30%) of the actual Adjusted Income of the Tenant, and Borrower shall rent the next available Unit of the appropriate size to a 20% AMI Household, a 30% AMI Household, a 40% AMI Household, or a 50% AMI Household, as applicable, at a Rent not exceeding the maximum Rent specified in Section 2.2, or designate another Unit in the Development with a 20% AMI Household as a 20% Unit, a 30% AMI Household as a 30% Unit, a 40% AMI Household as a 40% Unit, or a 50% AMI Household as a 50% Unit, as applicable, at a Rent not exceeding the maximum Rent specified in Section [2.2(a)].
c) Initial Rents are subject to City approval. Rents may not be increased more often than once every twelve (12) months and by no more than five percent (5%) per year.
Borrower shall provide each Tenant with at least sixty (60) days written notice of any increase in Rent applicable to such Tenant.
2.3 Manager’s Unit. One (1) dwelling unit in the Project may be used as resident manager’s unit and shall be exempt from the occupancy and rent restrictions set forth in this Agreement.
2.4 No Condominium Conversion. Borrower shall not convert the Project to condominium or cooperative Borrowership or sell condominium or cooperative rights to the Project or any part thereof during the term of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a conflict between this provision and the provisions of Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the provisions of such Section 42 shall control. Lessee shall develop marketing policies or other rental policies and procedures approved by the City, as may be amended from time to time, to ensure that residents and people who qualify for the P roject are provided adequate notice and opportunity to rent units in the Project.
