Additional Direct and Indirect Impact Information
Direct Impact Description: Describe the nature and extent of temporary and permanent impacts to waters of the state. Attach map(s) that clearly depict the anticipated area of direct impact.
As detailed in the Project Description, the proposed project would replace the existing low-flow crossing (i.e., Bradley Road) at Salt Creek with an all-weather bridge and include improvements to Bradley Road to the north and south of the proposed bridge. Additionally, the proposed project would relocate the existing Southern California Gas Company natural gas line, install two aggregate-base access ramps, remove existing fencing within Salt Creek by hand using hand tools, and reconstruct portions of the Salt Creek Trail (outside of RWQCB jurisdiction).
As shown in Figure 6, the proposed work outlined above would result in permanent impacts to approximately 0.21 acre of ephemeral, non-wetland waters of the United States and state due to the construction of the aggregate-base access ramps, bridge abutments, and rock slope protection needed to support and stabilize the bridge. Additionally, the proposed project would result in temporary impacts to approximately 0.80 acre of ephemeral, non-wetland waters of the United States and state in order to allow construction-related access within Salt Creek and the relocation of the existing natural gas utility line. Grading would require approximately 3,500 cubic yards of cut and 8,000 cubic yards of fill. Figure 5 shows the aquatic resource impact area in detail. Further information regarding the aquatic resource delineation conducted for the proposed project is detailed in the Natural Environmental Study (Minimal Impacts) for Bradley Road Bridge (NESMI).
Indirect Impact Description: Indirect impacts could be those that are reasonably foreseeable outside of the direct impact area, or that occur later in time, that may have an adverse effect on water quality. Examples of indirect impacts could include fluctuating or disturbed water levels, climate change adaptation, and disturbed habitat connectivity corridors.
Describe potential impacts to water quality from the project discharge. For example, describe increased turbidity, settleable matter, or other pollutants that may affect beneficial uses associated with the proposed project area. Attach map(s) that clearly depict the anticipated area of indirect impact, as feasible.
Construction of the proposed project would involve ground-disturbing activities for grading and excavation that could result in sediment discharge in stormwater runoff. Additionally, construction would involve the use of oil, lubricants, and other chemicals that could be discharged from leaks or accidental spills. These potential sediment and chemical discharges during construction would have the potential to impact water quality in receiving water bodies. Operation of the proposed project over the long-term would not directly produce water or wastewater discharge. Sediment, oils, and other debris from vehicles may collect on the proposed bridge and be discharged during rain events. Such potential indirect discharges would not be substantially different when compared to the existing condition.
Per USGS NHD, Salt Creek within the project site continues west and drains into Canyon Lake.
Flows from Canyon Lake continue into the San Jacinto River which drains into the Santa Ana River and eventually flows into Lake Elsinore (USGS 2023). The Santa Ana RWQCB Basin Plan identifies intermittent beneficial uses of Salt Creek for water contact recreation (REC1), non-contact water recreation (REC2), warm water ecosystem (WARM), and wildlife habitat (WILD).
Potential indirect impacts to the intermittent beneficial uses outlined above will be minimized with the implementation of appropriate Best Management Practices (BMPs), as outlined below in Section 8 and the Natural Environmental Study (Minimal Impacts) for Bradley Road Bridge (NESMI, Item Title: 10.15
Clean Water Act Permit Application Fees - Bradley Road Bridge over Salt Creek Project Item Page Number: 20
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 313 of 1858
Dudek 2022; Attachment D). Furthermore, per the Addendum No. 1 to the Final Bradley Road Bridge Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND, Dudek 2022; Attachment E), implementation of BMPs identified in the project’s Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) would further minimize adverse effects to water quality and erosion.
Cumulative Impacts: Provide a brief list/description, including estimated adverse impacts, of any projects implemented by the applicant within the last five years or planned for implementation by the applicant within the next five years that are in any way related to the proposed activity or that may impact the same receiving water body(ies) as the proposed activity. For purposes of this item, the water body extends to a named source or stream segment identified in the relevant Basin Plan. (CCR § 3856(h)(8).)
The Applicant has not implemented/constructed any projects within the past 5 years that impacted Salt Creek or its tributaries. However, the Applicant does intend on replacing another low-flow, at grade road crossing where Murrieta Road crosses Salt Creek. The proposed Murrieta Road Bridge project is located along Murrieta Road between Park City Avenue and Camino Del Sol Norte. The project will consist of roadway widening and a new bridge spanning the length of Salt Creek for a length of approximately 470 feet. The bridge will consist of a 4-lane bridge with pedestrian sidewalks and a signalized trail crossing. This project will investigate the horizontal and vertical alignment to meet 100-year flood limits, scouring analysis, etc. The proposed bridge will follow current Caltrans Standards and Specifications for design and construction. However, the Murrieta Road Bridge Project is in its infancy and it’s not at the stage where a project application has been filed, or where environmental review has been commenced to implement the proposal as a “project”. Further, this project is not under active environmental review for development, approved for construction, under construction, or completed. In addition, this project is not funded, such that it is “ready” to be submitted as a project application; therefore, this proposal is not “ready” to be the subject of environmental review at this time. Furthermore, this project does not have any set design or construction plans in place for study purposes; as a result, there is uncertainty as to design, location, configuration, timing, impacts, and other factors. It is presumed that, similar to the proposed project, direct, permanent impacts to Salt Creek resulting from the Murrieta Road Bridge Project would be less than 0.5 acre.
Depending on the quantity of new or replaced impervious surface area resulting from the project, a post-construction stormwater control plan and/or an operations and maintenance plan may be required to mitigate potential post-construction stormwater impacts. The plan may include drainage maps, detailed designs for Low Impact Development or other post-construction stormwater treatment and control measures, and design calculations. Contact Water Board staff for specific criteria.
Does the proposed project create or replace impervious surface? Yes No If yes, provide the total impervious surface area created or replaced in square feet:
104,544 square feet

Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 315 of 1858
Direct Impact Avoidance and Minimization:
The measures outlined below would be implemented during the proposed project construction activities to avoid and minimize direct impacts on water quality and RWQCB-jurisdictional aquatic resources.
As outlined and detailed in the Natural Environmental Study (Minimal Impacts) for Bradley Road Bridge (NESMI, Dudek 2022) provided in Attachment D, BIO-1 will ensure that (1) vehicles and equipment will not be operated in ponded or flowing water except as described in the permits; (2) water containing mud, silt, or other pollutants from grading (i.e., raw cement/concrete or washings thereof, asphalt, paint or other coating material, oil or other petroleum products) or other activities such as soil sites do not enter jurisdictional waters or be placed in locations that may be subject to high storm flows; and (3) no equipment maintenance occur within jurisdictional water and no petroleum products or other pollutants from the equipment enter these areas or any off-site watercourse under any flow. Additionally, a qualified biologist will conduct a training session for project personnel prior to construction. The training shall include a discussion of the general provisions of applicable environmental regulations, the need to adhere to the provisions of the regulations, the penalties associated with violating the provisions of the regulations and the access routes to and project site boundaries within which the project activities must be accomplished (see BIO-3 of the NESMI). Lastly, a qualified biologist shall monitor clearing and grubbing, grading, excavation, and soil movement activities during construction to ensure that all practicable measures are being employed to avoid incidental disturbance of habitat outside the project footprint (see BIO-2 of the NESMI).
Per the Addendum No. 1 to the Final Bradley Road Bridge Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND, Dudek 2022), provided in Attachment E, implementation of BMPs identified in the project’s Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) would further minimize adverse effects to water quality and erosion, ensure that water quality standards are met, and that stormwater runoff from the construction work areas do not cause degradation of water quality in receiving water bodies. Some of the SWPPP BMPs include use of silt screening or fiber filtration rolls, appropriate handling and disposal of contaminants, pesticide application restrictions, litter control and pickup, and vehicle and equipment repair and maintenance in designated areas.

Not applicable.
Excavations to construct the proposed bridge will be completed above the regional groundwater table. As such, the Applicant anticipates dewatering, if it is needed, will be limited to preventing surface water from entering excavations and limited dewatering of seasonally perched groundwater. The Applicant does not anticipate needing to acquire a dewatering permit at this time as they intend to either phase construction to occur during the dry season or low flow by means of diking/diversion of surface water and use of dewatering trenches, ditches, and/or sumps.
Section Nine: Ecological Restoration and Enhancement Projects (EREPs) Is this application for a project that meets the definition of an Ecological Restoration and Enhancement Project (Procedures section V)?
Yes No
Applications for Ecological Restoration and Enhancement Projects require an assessment plan with the following information (Procedures section IV.A.2.e):
Project objectives
Description of performance standards used to evaluate attainment of objectives Protocols for condition assessment
The timeframe and responsible party for performing condition assessment Assessment schedule
A draft restoration plan for restoring temporarily impacted areas to pre-project conditions, if a draft restoration plan is not provided as part of a binding stream or wetland enhancement or restoration agreement
Section Ten: Restoration of Temporary Impacts
If temporary impacts are proposed, applicants are required to submit a draft restoration plan for a complete application. Temporary impact restoration includes activities that are undertaken to restore the temporarily impacted area to pre-project conditions. A draft restoration plan should outline design, implementation, assessment, and maintenance activities. When active restoration is proposed, components of a draft restoration plan should include project objectives, plans for grading impacted areas to pre-project contours, a planting palette with plant species native to the area, seed collection locations, an invasive species management plan. Maintenance and assessment components of a draft restoration plan often includes performance measures, performance standard descriptions, attainment objectives, and timing proposed to reach attainment objectives. When passive restoration is proposed, a draft restoration plan should include an explanation of how passive restoration will restore the area to pre-project conditions, assessment components, and an estimated date for expected restoration.
If the draft restoration plan is part of a larger document, identify the specific section and page number where the requested information may be found in the attached document in the text box provided. If restoration of temporary impacts will occur through natural ecological processes, provide that information in the text box below.

Restoration Plan
Is a restoration plan attached? Yes No
Describe the restoration plan and/or indicate where information is located within an attachment:
The Applicant proposes to restore all temporarily impacted streambed to pre-construction contours and conditions at a 1:1 mitigation ratio by removing all temporary structures and any supportive material as soon as reasonably possible, by completely removing temporary fills, such as diversion structures, upon work completion, and by recontouring the streambed, as needed. Temporary impacts to vegetated areas would be restored with erosion control methods, such as hydroseeding, hand-seeding, and replanting native plant species with some combination thereof to best mimic the pre-construction baseline environmental conditions. The Applicant will develop a native hydroseed mix that shall be applied to the temporarily disturbed areas following construction and monitored for a 24-month period to confirm germination to the satisfaction of the City of Menifee Community Development Department. Additionally, the project was designed to avoid and minimize adverse effects to RWQCB-jurisdictional aquatic resources, as further detailed in Section Eight (Avoidance and Minimization Measures) further above. The Natural Environmental Study (Minimal Impacts) for Bradley Road Bridge (NESMI, Dudek 2022) will be implemented to avoid and minimize potential adverse environmental effects that may be caused by the proposed project.
Section Eleven: Compensatory Mitigation
Compensatory mitigation means the restoration, establishment, enhancement, and/or in certain circumstances preservation of aquatic resources for the purposes of offsetting unavoidable adverse impacts which remain after all appropriate and practicable avoidance and minimization has been achieved (Procedures Appendix A, Subpart J § 230.92). When compensatory mitigation is required, a draft compensatory mitigation plan is required for a complete application.

Draft Compensatory Mitigation Plan
Using a watershed approach, a draft compensatory mitigation plan should be provided and be consistent with the requirements listed in Procedures Appendix A, Subpart J, and contain the items listed in section IV.A.2.b of the Procedures.
For mitigation bank or in-lieu fee program proposals, only the first three items below are required (i, ii, and iii). For permittee responsible mitigation, items one through seven are required. Item eight (climate change assessment) is required on a case-by-case basis; you may contact Water Board staff to determine if a climate change assessment will be required for your proposed mitigation project.
Indicate the attached document name and page number where each draft compensatory mitigation plan item may be found:
i. A watershed profile for the project evaluation area for both the project activity and the proposed compensatory mitigation location (section IV.A.2.b.i).
The Applicant proposes to mitigate for direct, permanent impacts to 0.21 acre of ephemeral, non-wetland waters of the state through the purchase of 0.63 acre of non-wetland waters of the U.S. ephemeral or intermittent stream enhancement credits at a 3:1 mitigation ratio from the Soquel Canyon Mitigation Bank. The Soquel Canyon Mitigation Bank (Bank) is located within Soquel Canyon Creek and unnamed tributaries to Soquel Canyon Creek, all tributary to the Santa Ana River, within the City limits of Chino Hills, in the southwestern corner of San Bernardino County, and in unincorporated Orange County, California. The majority of the Bank occurs within San Bernardino County (306 acres) while 7 acres occurs within unincorporated Orange County. The Bank encompasses the following assessor's parcel numbers (APNs) within San Bernardino County: 1033-021-07, 1033-131-03, 1033-131-04, 1033-011-02, 1033-011-03, 1033-011-04, 1033-021-02, and 1033-021-03; and within Orange County: 312-051-02. Its southern boundary is the Chino Hills State Park, a premier natural open space area near the junction of San Bernardino, Orange, Riverside and Los Angeles Counties. The State Park is a critical link in the Puente-Chino Hills biological corridor, encompassing over 14,000 acres of oaks, sycamores, and rolling grassy hills stretching nearly 31 miles from the Santa Ana Mountains to the Whittier Hills. The Bank drains into the San Gabriel, Lower Los Angeles and Santa Ana River watersheds, resulting in a large service area that includes portions of Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside, and Los Angeles Counties. The proposed Bradley Road Bridge project appears to lie within the tertiary service area of the Soquel Canyon Mitigation Bank.
Item Title: 10.15
Clean Water Act Permit Application Fees - Bradley Road Bridge over Salt Creek Project Item Page Number: 28
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 321 of 1858
Enhancement activities associated with the Bank included installation and maintenance of fencing and signage to protect and conserve the Bank; removal of nonnative vegetation; removal of trash, and debris; and installation of best management practices (e.g., silt fencing, straw wattles) for sediment erosion control, where necessary. Restoration activities included those listed for enhancement and also included the installation of native plant species.
Vegetation removal was be performed using hand tools, mechanical cutters and shredders, and herbicides. No earth-moving and/or grading activities to establish the Bank was proposed.
The Bank generates waters of the United States stream enhancement credits by converting non-native vegetative communities to native types, reducing/eliminating invasive seed sources and, enhancing habitats for protected species. These activities repair and ultimately improve habitat for federally listed species, including least Bell’s vireo and California coastal gnatcatcher. Enhancement is also achieved by excluding cattle and managing invasive species in existing natural communities.
These activities will serve to improve hydrologic conditions, restore connectivity between adjacent areas of preserved land and natural habitats, and restore and improve wildlife movement corridors, which would result in a net gain in functions and services of aquatic resources within the watershed.
The Riverpark Mitigation Bank continues to be a mitigation option for the preferred project; however, given the fact that the community demand for credits has exceeded supply for the current phase release (i.e., Phase C), the timing of future credit releases will not likely align with the construction schedule for the proposed project. On April 19, 2023, the Bank Sponsor informed the Applicant that future credit releases are likely expected to occur in 2024; however, the credit release is based on achieving habitat restoration success criteria as established by the resource agencies. Therefore, the Riverpark Mitigation Bank staff are unable to estimate a reliable schedule at this time.
ii. An assessment of the overall condition of aquatic resources proposed to be impacted by the project and their likely stressors, using an assessment method approved by the Water Boards (section IV.A.2.b.ii).
The existing Bradley Road alignment crosses Salt Creek, a wide, shallow, east–west trending flood control channel that directly discharges into Canyon Lake, an artificial freshwater lake located in the community of Canyon Lake located off site and downstream of the proposed project. Additionally, Salt Creek is a blue-line stream that has been designed with steep, engineered channel banks and, in many areas, is a maintained and managed floodplain. Salt Creek was originally channelized and engineered to retain flows up to a 100-year storm event and reduce flooding, although, due to the lack of periodic maintenance and continuous sediment transport over the years, there are some areas along the length of the creek that are no longer capable of maintaining 100-year flows within the banks. Bradley Road crosses Salt Creek in a north-to-south direction, generally at an equal elevation to Salt Creek. Within the project area, Salt Creek is routinely mowed by District staff for flood control management and is characterized as a disturbed, ruderal floodplain dominated largely by non-native herbs, grasses, and forbs. Salt Creek within the project area contains an active lowflow channel, defined by incised channel banks, ranges in width from 3 feet to 5 feet and is mapped as open channel with a sandy bottom intermixed with small river cobble. The active floodplain boundary, where water overtops the main, active low-flow channel during larger rain events, is approximately 500 feet wide, on average, and extends from the toe of the southern levee to the toe of the north levee. The main, active low-flow channel supported clearly discernible channel morphology (i.e., clear bed and bank) with evidence of channel incision, shelving, drainage patterns, and drift lines. Salt Creek was originally channelized and engineered to retain flows up to a 100-year storm event and reduce flooding, although, due to the lack of periodic maintenance and continuous sediment transport over the years, there are some areas along the creek that are no longer capable of maintaining 100-year flows within the banks. As shown on Figure 5, Bradley Item Title: 10.15
Clean Water Act Permit Application Fees - Bradley Road Bridge over Salt Creek Project Item Page Number: 29
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 322 of 1858
Road crosses Salt Creek in a north-to-south direction, generally at an equal elevation to Salt Creek.
Due to this design characterization, the present Bradley Road is a stressor to Salt Creek and is prone to flooding during rain events, creating unstable, erosive conditions along the road shoulder. iii. A description of how the project impacts and compensatory mitigation would not cause a net loss of the overall abundance, diversity, and condition of aquatic resources, based on the watershed profile. If the compensatory mitigation is located in the same watershed as the project, no net loss will be determined on a watershed basis. If the compensatory mitigation and project impacts are located in multiple watersheds, no net loss will be determined considering all affected watershed collectively. The level of detail in the plan shall be sufficient to accurately evaluate whether compensatory mitigation offsets the adverse impacts attributed to the project (section IV.A.2.b.iii).
The intent of the Soquel Canyon Mitigation Bank is to improve and restore wetland hydrology to Soquel Canyon Creek and complete associated habitat restoration and enhancement activities, resulting in the creation of a largescale mitigation bank on parcels totaling 313 acres. Overall, the Soquel Canyon Mitigation Bank is designed as a restoration and enhancement project to improve natural floodplain/riverine habitats within the watershed. Goals of the mitigation bank include reestablishing native habitat in areas that have experienced severe degradation due to prolonged cattle grazing and agricultural uses as well as removing non-native invasive species and restoring native vegetation. This serves to improve hydrologic conditions, significantly reduce the upstream invasive species seed sources, preserve connectivity between adjacent areas of preserved land and natural habitats, and preserve wildlife movement corridors, and would result in a net gain in functions and services following restoration activities. In comparison, the aquatic resources in the project site are unvegetated, ephemeral in nature, and highly disturbed by persistent anthropogenic influences including routine vegetation management and a considerable amount of trash deposition and pedestrian uses. The mitigation proposed is anticipated to fully compensate for proposed permanent impacts to waters of the state.

Item Title: 10.15
Clean Water Act Permit Application Fees - Bradley Road Bridge over Salt Creek Project Item Page Number: 36
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 329 of 1858 Step 1 Determine the Fee Category for your project:
Fee Based on Fill or Excavation Discharge Size Within the Waterbody (A) Do your project activities add fill material (soil, rocks, concrete, culverts(s), pier pilings, etc.) or excavate soil or other materials within a waterbody? Fill refers to replacing any portion of a water with dry land, or to changing the bottom elevation or grade of any portion of a water. Fill material includes rock, sand, clay, plastics, construction debris, wood chips, overburden from mining, or other construction activities, and materials used to create any structure or infrastructure within waters (culverts, pilings, etc.).
Excavation refers to removing sediment or soil in shallow waters or under no-flow conditions where impacts to beneficial uses are best described by the area of the excavation. It typically is done for purposes other than navigation. Examples include earth-moving work such as trenching for utility lines; channel reconstruction; embankment construction; removing sediment to increase channel capacity; and other flood control and drainage maintenance activities (e.g. debris removal, vegetation management and removal, detention basin maintenance and erosion control of slopes along open channels and other drainage facilities).
Fees Based on Discharge of Dredged Material
(B) Is your project deep water dredging? (except Sand Mining - see (C) below) Dredging generally refers to removing sediment in deeper water to increase depth and typically occur to facilitate navigation. The impacts to beneficial uses are best described by the volume of the discharge removed. Dredge volumes are expressed in cubic yards.
Fee Based on Flat Fee Categories
Does your project qualify for one of the following flat fee categories? To qualify for a flat fee category, the entirety of all project activities must be included within a single flat fee category, i.e., the project cannot include other components involving activities not included within the flat fee category. (C) Sand Mining, In-Stream Gravel Mining and Beach Nourishment Discharges Aggregate extraction in surface waters where source material is free of pollutants and the dredging operation will not violate any basin plan provisions and beach nourishment projects. (D) Ecological Restoration and Enhancement Projects
The project meets the definition of an “Ecological Restoration and Enhancement Project” set forth in the State Wetland Definition and Procedures for Discharges of Dredged or Fill Materials to Waters of the State, adopted by the State Water Board on April 2, 2019:
Ecological Restoration and Enhancement Project means the project is voluntarily undertaken for the purpose of assisting or controlling the recovery of an aquatic ecosystem that has been degraded, damaged or destroyed to restore some measure of its natural condition and to enhance the beneficial uses, including potential beneficial uses of water. Such projects are undertaken:
1) in accordance with the terms and conditions of a binding stream or wetland enhancement or restoration agreement, or a wetland establishment agreement, between the real property interest owner or the entity conducting the habitat restoration or enhancement work and:
a. a federal or state resource agency, including, but not limited to, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Natural Resources Conservation Service, Farm Service Agency, National Marine Fisheries Service, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Forest Service, U.S. Bureau of Land Management, California Department of Fish and Wildlife, California Wildlife Conservation Board, California Coastal Conservancy or the Delta Conservancy;
b. a local agency with the primary function of managing land or water for wetland habitat purposes; or c. a non-governmental conservation organization; or
2) by a state or federal agency that is statutorily tasked with natural resource management. These projects do not include the conversion of a stream or natural wetland to uplands or stream channelization.
It is recognized that Ecological Restoration and Enhancement Projects may require ongoing maintenance or management to maximize fish, wildlife, habitat, or other ecological benefits, or filling gullied stream channels and similar rehabilitative activities to re-establish stream and meadow hydrology. Changes in wetland plant communities that occur when wetland hydrology is more fully restored during rehabilitation activities are not considered a conversion to another aquatic habitat type. These projects also do not include actions required under a Water Board Order for mitigation, actions to service required mitigation, or actions undertaken for the primary purpose of land development. (E) Low Impact Discharges
Projects may be classified as low impact discharges if they meet all of the following criteria:
1. The discharge size is less than all of the following: (a) for fill, 0.1 acre, AND 300 linear feet, and (b) for dredging, 25 cubic yards.
2. The discharger demonstrates that: (a) all practicable measures will be taken to avoid impacts; (b) where unavoidable temporary impacts take place, waters and vegetation will be restored to pre-project conditions as quickly as practicable; and (c) where unavoidable permanent impacts take place, there will be no net loss of wetland, riparian area, or headwater functions, including onsite habitat, habitat connectivity, floodwater retention, and pollutant removal.
3. The discharge will not do any of the following: (a) directly or indirectly destabilize a bed of a receiving water; (b) contribute to significant cumulative effects; (c) cause pollution, contamination, or nuisance; (d) adversely affect candidate, threatened, or endangered species; (e) degrade water quality or beneficial uses; (f) be toxic; or (g) include “hazardous” or “designated” material. (F) Emergency Projects Authorized by a Water Board General Order RGP 8 Corps' Sacramento District
RGP 5 Corps' San Francisco District
RGP 63 Corps' Los Angeles District
(G) Amended Orders (go to Step 4)
(H) Wildfire Mitigation by Electrical Corporations, Electric Utilities, and Electrical Cooperatives Dredge or fill activities conducted by electrical corporations, electric utilities, and electrical cooperatives pursuant to a wildfire mitigation plan prepared in accordance with Public Utilities Code, section 8386(b) or section 8387(b)(1). This annual fee covers all dredge or fill activities conducted by the electrical corporations, electric utilities, and electrical cooperatives pursuant to a wildfire mitigation plan, and is in lieu of the project-specific dredge or fill fees in section 2200(a)(3)(A)-(G) for dredge or fill activities conducted pursuant to a wildfire mitigation plan. Annual fee is assessed as $40.00 per mile of overhead electrical lines identified as high risk or high threat in the wildfire mitigation plan.
General instructions
Terms defining the measurement of a "discharge":
Discharge of "dredged material" is measured by the volume of material removed in deep water dredging activities; Discharge of "fill material" is measured by the physical area of placement of fill material into a waterbody; Discharge of "excavation material" is measured by the physical area within a waterbody where earth-moving activities occur.
Generally, fees are determined by the size or volume of discharge to a water body. Fees for fill and/or excavation projects are based on discharge area in acres. Fees for deep water dredging are based on the volume of dredged material removed in cubic yards. For further explanation, see (A) and (B) below. However, your project may qualify for a flat fee category. If so, the project fee will be based on the fee for that category instead of size or volume (see (C) through (G) below). Amended orders may or may not be subject to fees depending on the complexity of analysis required. Follow the steps below to determine the fee associated with your project. Please contact Water Boards staff with further questions regarding how to use the calculator, click here for a link to the staff directory.

Clean Water Act Permit Application Fees - Bradley Road Bridge over Salt Creek Project Item Page Number: 37
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 330 of 1858 Step 6
Fee Types & Due Dates
Projects are subject to fees at three separate times throughout the life of a project. Application and Project Fees are determined according to the fee schedule in effect on the date of application submittal. Annual fees are determined according to the fee schedule in effect on the date of billing:
1) Application Fee: Amount due with the initial application. 2) Project Fee: Amount due prior to certification (applies to Category A only). 3) The Annual Fee amount is invoiced annually: All projects are subject to an Annual Fee each fiscal year or portion of a fiscal year that the certification is active (from the effective date of the order until the regional board or state board issues a Notice of Project Complete Letter to the discharger). The Water Boards fiscal year begins on July 1 and ends on June 30. Dischargers will be invoiced their first Annual Fee beginning in November/December of the year following the Effective Date of certification. Dischargers will be invoiced for an Annual Fee each year until the project is completed. The annual fee for category (A) fill and excavation discharges will be $2,297 for the first five fiscal years following the effective date of the order, then $365 beginning with the sixth fiscal year until the Notice of Completion is issued to the discharger. The annual fee for category (B) dredging discharges will be invoiced after the annual dredge volume has been determined.
Step 2
If you have determined that your project qualifies for a flat fee category (C through H) check the applicable box to calculate fees.
Step 5
See Total Fees for a breakdown of fees owed.
Step 4
Are you requesting an amendment to a previously issued water quality certification or WDR? Fees for amended orders are based on the increased quantity of discharge and the level of technical analysis required evaluate project changes, therefore Water Board staff will determine which category your amendment is subject. Water Board staff will determine the fee for amendments based on the fee schedule and will request the applicant to submit the appropriate fee.
Fees based on amendments are categorized as follows:
(1) All Category (D) Ecological and Restoration and Enhancement Projects, regardless of amendment type. No fee required (2) Administrative amendments including, but not limited to, ownership changes, typographic edits, or time extensions that do not result in a temporal loss of resource function. Amendments in this category require no technical analysis or additional compensatory mitigation. No fee required (3) Amendment results in change(s) in impact character, location, or volume of the discharge; or a time extension that results in temporal loss of resource function, according to the following criteria:
-Amendment increases the active certification's impact quantity by less than 50 percent, and -Amendment does not require a change to the mitigated aquatic resource type.
Additional standard fee assessed per increased amount of discharge(s). The minimum fee is $2,734. For category A or B projects, enter discharge quantities for increased impacts quantities. For flat fee categories, select the appropriate category. (4) Amendment requires a supplemental CEQA analysis, or Amendment results in change(s) in impact character, location, or volume of the discharge, or a time extension that results in a temporal loss of resource function, according to the following criteria:
-Amendment increases the active certification's impact quantity by more than 50 percent, or -Amendment requires a change to the mitigated aquatic resource type.
Additional standard fee assessed per total amount of discharge(s). The minimum fee is $2,734. For category A or B projects, enter discharge quantities for all project impacts, including quantities previously certified. For flat fee categories, select the appropriate category.
Dischargers that have met the project fee cap will be assessed the minimum fee for each amendment of previously-issued WDR or water quality certification.
Step 3
A. Is your project a fill/excavation project?
If your project is a fill/excavation project, calculate your fee based on the size of the discharge area in acres. For projects with multiple impact sites, sum the individual discharge quantities and enter the total in the calculator. For projects impacting multiple water features sum discharge quantities for all features. In addition, fees are based on the sum of both permanent and temporary impacts. The size of the discharge area shall be rounded to two decimal places (0.01 acre = 436 square feet). Category A discharges are subject to the sum of the Application fee and Project fee; the Application fee is due at the time of application and the project fee is due prior to issuance of the certification; additional annual fees are assessed from the date of certification until project completion.
B. Is your project a dredging project? Your dredging fee will be based on the actual amount of material dredged from the waterbody. Therefore, annual active discharge invoices are sent for the previous fiscal year's dredging amount. Invoice amounts will be based on the fee schedule current for that fiscal year. Please submit your application fee amount as shown in the calculator above. You may estimate your upcoming annual active discharge fee using the current fee calculator. However, this will only be an estimate because fees are subject to change annually as approved by the State Water Board.
Combination fill/excavation and dredging Projects (A and B) Does your dredging project also include a discharge of fill material? These projects typically include dredging material from one part of a waterbody and depositing the dredged material into a different location in the waterbody. These projects are subject to both Category A and Category B fees.

DISCUSSION
Each fiscal year, the City of Menifee places charges on the tax roll for multiple Community Facilities Districts (CFDs) located within the City. The CFDs and expected charges for Fiscal Year (FY) 2023/2024 are summarized in the attached Preliminary Summary of Fixed Charges. The special taxes collected from each of these CFDs pays for the ongoing maintenance costs authorized under the “Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982,” Government Code section 53311 et seq. (Act).
The services that may be funded with proceeds of the special tax, as provided by Section 53313 of the Act, include without limitation all costs attributable to maintaining, servicing, cleaning, repairing and/or replacing landscaped areas in public street rights-of-way, public landscaping, parks, open spaces and other similar landscaped areas officially dedicated for public use, street sweeping and pavement management, street lighting and traffic signal maintenance, graffiti removal and abatement, flood and storm protection services and the operation of storm drainage systems.
In addition to the costs of the foregoing services, proceeds of the special tax may be expended to pay administrative expenses and for the collection of reserve funds.
The City is required by the County of Riverside to provide a certified Ordinance to the Auditor/Controller’s office each year to confirm the special tax levies within each CFD for the annual property tax roll.
Included with each amendment is a provision specifying that special taxes for these CFDs may be levied by resolution, beginning with FY 2024/2025. The use of a resolution for this purpose is authorized by Government Code section 53340. Switching from ordinance amendment to resolution will allow for a more streamlined and efficient process.
A Public Hearing Notice was published on May 28, 2023, pursuant to Government Code Section 6066. As of the date of this Staff Report, no comments were received from the public regarding this matter.

Pursuant to Section 53340 of the Government Code, such special taxes shall be collected in the same manner as ordinary ad valorem property taxes are collected and shall be subject to the same penalties and the same procedure, sale, and lien priority in case of delinquency as is provided for ad valorem taxes. Pursuant to Section 53340 of the Government Code, beginning with the Fiscal Year 2024/2025, special taxes on all parcels of real property within CFD No. 2015-2 which are subject to taxation may be levied by resolution at the same rate or lower rate than the rate provided by this Ordinance.
Section 5. Future Annexations. The annexation of additional territory into the CFD No. 2015-2 was contemplated as part of the adoption of Resolution No. 15-440. The boundaries of the territory within which any property may annex to the CFD No. 2015-2 are more particularly described and shown on that certain map entitled “Boundaries – Potential Annexation Area Community Facilities District No. 2015-2 (Maintenance Services) of the City of Menifee, County of Riverside, State of California,” as recorded on April 21, 2015 in Book 78 of Maps of Assessment and Community Facilities District, at Page 25, and as Document No. 2015-0159793 in the official records of the County of Riverside. Following a public hearing and the adoption of resolutions required by the Act for any additional annexations of property within said potential annexation area, Revised Exhibit B of Ordinance No. 2015-173 shall be further amended to include any additional territory annexed to the CFD No. 2015-2. The City Council hereby authorizes and directs the officers, employees, and agents of the City to take all actions and do all things which they, or any of them, may deem necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 5 of this Ordinance to further amend Revised Exhibit B of Ordinance No. 2015-173.

The City Clerk shall immediately following adoption of this ordinance transmit a copy hereof to the Board of Supervisors and County Auditor of the County of Riverside together with a request that the special taxes as levied hereby be collected on the tax bills for the parcels identified in Revised Exhibit B hereto, along with the ordinary ad valorem property taxes to be levied on and collected from the owners of said parcels.
Section 7. Severability. If for any reason any portion of this Ordinance is found to be invalid, or if the special taxes found inapplicable to any particular parcel within the CFD No. 2015-2, by a court of competent jurisdiction, the balance of this Ordinance and the application of the special tax to the remaining parcels within the CFD No. 2015-2 shall not be affected.
Section 8. Authorization to Publish Ordinance. The Mayor shall sign this Ordinance and the City Clerk shall attest thereto and shall, within fifteen (15) days of its adoption, cause it or a summary of it to be published at least once in a newspaper of general circulation published and circulated in the City and in the CFD No. 2015-2.

Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 451 of 1858 City of Menifee Staff Report
Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 (Rockport Ranch) June 7, 2023
AG EHC II (LEN) CA 1, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Land Bank”) and Lennar Homes of California, LLC, a California limited liability company (the “Developer”) each own a portion of the property in CFD No. 2023-1. Lennar intends to continue to acquire additional property in CFD No. 2023-1 from the Land Bank as development therein progresses. The proposed development in CFD No. 2023-1 is for 305 homes on approximately 80 gross acres.
The Land Bank has requested that the City form CFD No. 2023-1 in accordance with the MelloRoos Community Facilities Act of 1982, as amended (the “Mello-Roos Act”), to finance the costs of certain public improvements through the levy of a special tax and the issuance of bonds in an amount not-to-exceed $23,000,000.
The Land Bank and Lennar have requested that the boundaries of CFD No. 2023-1 include the area described in “Attachment A” of the Resolution of Intention and that special taxes be levied within the boundaries of CFD No. 2023-1 in accordance with the Rate and Method of Apportionment (the “RMA”) as described in Attachment C to the Resolution of Intention, which is included as an appendix to the attached Public Hearing Report.
The Resolution of Intention called for a public hearing to be held on June 7, 2023, for the City Council to formally consider the approval of the formation of CFD No. 2023-1 and the approval of the levy of the special taxes within CFD No. 2023-1. Notice of the public hearing was published in the Press Enterprise and mailed to Lennar and the Land Bank in accordance with the MelloRoos Act.
In connection with the public hearing, Spicer Consulting Group has prepared a Public Hearing Report that describes and analyzes the facilities to be financed by the CFD and the estimated costs of such facilities. Following the close of the public hearing, the City Council will be asked to adopt the Resolution of Formation and the Resolution Determining the Necessity to Incur Debt which, together, approve the formation of the CFD and the levy of the special taxes within the CFD in accordance with the RMA and determines the necessity for the CFD to issue bonds in an amount not-to-exceed $23,000,000. Such Resolutions call for an election to submit to the qualified voters in the CFD, ballot measures on the approval of the special taxes, the issuance of the bonds and an appropriations limit for the CFD.
In addition, the Resolution of Formation, approves the execution and delivery of the following agreements in the forms presented to the City Council: (i) the Acquisition, Construction and Funding Agreement with Lennar (the “Funding Agreement”); and (ii) the Joint Community Facilities Agreement with Lennar and Eastern Municipal Water District (“Joint Community Facilities Agreement”). The Funding Agreement sets forth the terms, among others, pursuant to which the CFD will finance improvements to be constructed by Lennar. In accordance with the Mello-Roos Act, the approval and execution of the Joint Community Facilities Agreement allows for the CFD to finance improvements to be owned and operated by Eastern Municipal Water District, which benefit the development within the CFD.
On file with the City Clerk is a Certificate of the Registrar of Voters of Riverside County certifying that there are no registered voters residing within the boundaries of the CFD. Accordingly, under the Mello-Roos Act, only landowners in the CFD are eligible to vote at the election with each Item Title: 11.2

owner having one vote for each acre (or portion thereof) that they own within the CFD. Lennar and the Land Bank, as the landowners in the CFD, have each executed a consent and waiver of certain election procedures for the election within the CFD, including certain timing requirements with respect to the election in accordance with the Mello-Roos Act. Accordingly, if the City Council approves the Resolution of Formation and the Resolution Determining the Necessity to Incur Debt, the City Clerk will conduct the election. The City Clerk will announce the election results and the City Council will be asked to adopt the Resolution Certifying the Election Results. Based on the certification that two-thirds of the votes cast are in-favor of the propositions voted upon, the Resolution Certifying the Election Results directs the City Clerk to record a notice of special tax lien on the property within the CFD. The City Council will then be asked to introduce the Ordinance authorizing the levy of the special tax within the CFD in accordance with the applicable RMA.
STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVE
Regular City Business
FISCAL IMPACT
The CFD will be required to annually levy special taxes on all of the taxable property within the CFD in order to pay for the costs of facilities, debt service on bonds and administration of the CFD. Any bonds issued by the CFD are not the obligations of the City and will be secured solely by the special taxes levied in the CFD. Lennar has made a deposit to pay for the costs of forming the CFD. The Resolution of Intention, Section 13 approved a form of a Reimbursement Agreement to reimburse Lennar for these costs if and when bonds are issued for CFD.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Menifee, California:
Section 1. Each of the above recitals is true and correct.
Section 2. A community facilities district to be designated “Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 (Rockport Ranch) of the City of Menifee” is hereby established pursuant to the Act. The City Council hereby finds and determines that all prior proceedings taken with respect to the establishment of the District were valid and in conformity with the requirements of law, including the Act. This finding is made in accordance with the provisions of Section 53325.1(b) of the Act.
Section 3. The boundaries of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 are established as shown on the map designated “Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 (Rockport Ranch) City of Menifee, County of Riverside, State of California”, which map is on file in the office of the City Clerk and was recorded pursuant to Sections 3111 and 3113 of the Streets and Highways Code in the County Book of Maps of Assessment and Community Facilities Districts in the Assessor-County ClerkRecorder’s office of the County of Riverside in Book No. 91, Page No. 15 on May 9, 2023 as Instrument No. 2023-0132701.

The City is authorized by the Act to contribute revenue to, or to construct or acquire the Facilities, all in accordance with the Act. The City Council finds and determines that the proposed Facilities are necessary to meet the increased demand that will be placed upon local agencies and public infrastructure as a result of new development within the District and that the Facilities to be financed, including those to be financed pursuant the JCFA to be entered into with the Water District and the Developer, benefit residents of the City and the future residents of the District.
Section 5. Except where funds are otherwise available, it is the intention of this City Council, subject to the approval of the eligible voters of the District, to levy annually a Special Tax at the rates set forth in the Rate and Method on all non-exempt property within the District sufficient to pay for (i) the Facilities, (ii) the principal and interest and other periodic costs on the bonds proposed to be issued to finance the Facilities and Incidental Expenses, including the establishment and replenishment of reserve funds, any remarketing, credit enhancement and liquidity facility fees and other expenses of the type permitted by Section 53345.3 of the Act; and (iii) the Incidental Expenses. The District expects to incur, and in certain cases has already incurred, Incidental Expenses in connection with the creation of the District, the issuance of bonds, the levying and collecting of the Special Tax, the completion and inspection of the Facilities and the annual administration of the bonds and the District. The Rate and Method is described in detail in Attachment C to Resolution No. 23-1315 and incorporated herein by this reference, and the City Council hereby finds that the Rate and Method contains sufficient detail to allow each landowner within the District to estimate the maximum amount that may be levied against each parcel. As described in greater detail in the Engineer’s Report, which is incorporated by reference herein, the Special Tax is based on the expected demand that each parcel of real property within Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 will place on the Facilities and on the benefit that each parcel will derive from the right to access the Facilities and, accordingly, is hereby determined to be reasonable. The Special Tax shall be levied on each assessor’s parcel in accordance with the Rate and Method provided, however, that the Special Tax shall not be levied after Fiscal Year 2065-
66. The Special Tax is apportioned to each parcel on the foregoing bases pursuant to Section 53325.3 of the Act and such Special Tax is not on or based upon the ownership of real property or the assessed value of real property.
If Special Taxes of the District are levied against any parcel used for private residential purposes, (i) the maximum Special Tax rate shall be specified as a dollar amount which shall be calculated and established not later than the date on which the parcel is first subject to the Special Tax because of its use for private residential purposes and shall not be increased over time except as authorized under the Rate and Method, (ii) the Special Tax shall not be levied after Fiscal Year 2065-66, and (iii) under no circumstances will the Special Tax levied against any such parcel used for private residential uses be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owner or owners of any other parcel or parcels within the District by more than ten percent (10%) above the amount that would have been levied in that fiscal year had there never been any such delinquencies or defaults.

The City Manager of the City of Menifee, or his or her designee, will be responsible for preparing annually, or authorizing a designee to prepare, a current roll of special tax levy obligations by assessor’s parcel number and will be responsible for estimating future special tax levies pursuant to Section 53340.2 of the Act.
Section 6. In the event that a portion of the property within Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 shall become for any reason exempt, wholly or partially, from the levy of the Special Tax specified in the Rate and Method, or in the event of delinquencies in the payment of Special Taxes levied, the City Council shall, on behalf of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, increase the levy to the extent necessary and permitted by law and these proceedings upon the remaining property within Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 which is not exempt or delinquent in order to yield the required debt service payments on any outstanding bonds of the District, or to prevent the District from defaulting on any of its other obligations or liabilities; provided, however, under no circumstances will the Special Tax levied against any parcel used for private residential uses be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owner or owners of any other parcel or parcels within the District by more than ten percent above the amount that would have been levied in that fiscal year had there never been any such delinquencies or defaults. The amount of the Special Tax will be set in accordance with the Rate and Method. The obligation to pay Special Taxes may be prepaid only as set forth in Section G of the Rate and Method.
Section 7. Upon recordation of a notice of special tax lien pursuant to Section 3114.5 of the Streets and Highways Code, a continuing lien to secure each levy of the Special Tax shall attach to all non-exempt real property in the District and this lien shall continue in force and effect until the Special Tax obligation is prepaid and permanently satisfied and the lien canceled in accordance with law or until collection of the Special Tax by the District ceases.
Section 8. Consistent with Section 53325.6 of the Act, the City Council finds and determines that the land within Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, if any, devoted primarily to agricultural, timber or livestock uses and being used for the commercial production of agricultural, timber or livestock products is contiguous to other land within Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 and will be benefited by the Facilities proposed to be provided within Community Facilities District No. 2023-1.
Section 9. It is hereby further determined that there is no ad valorem property tax currently being levied on property within proposed Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 for the exclusive purpose of paying the principal of or interest on bonds or other indebtedness incurred to finance the construction of capital facilities which provide the same services to the territory of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 as are proposed to be provided by the Facilities to be financed by Community Facilities District No. 2023-1.
Section 10. Written protests against the establishment of the District have not been filed by one-half or more of the registered voters within the boundaries of the District or by the property owners of one-half (1/2) or more of the area of land within the District.

The City Council hereby finds that the proposed Special Tax has not been precluded by a majority protest pursuant to Section 53324 of the Act.
Section 11. An election is hereby called for Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 on the propositions of levying the Special Tax on the property within Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 and establishing an appropriations limit for the District pursuant to Section 53325.7 of the Act and shall be consolidated with the election on the proposition of incurring bonded indebtedness, pursuant to Sections 53351 and 53353.5 of the Act.

Section 12. The date of the election for Community Facilities District No. 2023-1 on the propositions of incurring the bonded indebtedness, authorizing the levy of the Special Tax and establishing an appropriations limit for the District shall be June 7, 2023, or such later date as is consented to by the City Clerk or Acting City Clerk (referred to herein as the “City Clerk”) of the City of Menifee; provided that, if the election is to take place sooner than 90 days after June 7, 2023, then the unanimous written consent of each qualified elector within the District to such election date must be obtained. The polls shall be open for said election immediately following the close of the public hearing on June 7, 2023. The election shall be conducted by the City Clerk. Except as otherwise provided by the Act, the election shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of law regulating elections of the City of Menifee insofar as such provisions are determined by the City Clerk to be applicable.

Pursuant to Section 53326 of the Act, the ballots for the special election shall be distributed in person, or by mail with return postage prepaid, to the qualified electors within Community Facilities District No. 2023-1. The City Clerk has secured a certificate from the Registrar of Voters of the County of Riverside certifying that there were no registered voters within the District as of April 18, 2023. Accordingly, since there were fewer than 12 registered voters within the District for each of the 90 days preceding June 7, 2023, the qualified electors shall be the landowners within the District and each landowner, or the authorized representative thereof, shall have one vote for each acre or portion thereof that such landowner owns within Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, as provided in Section 53326 of the Act. The landowners within the District have each executed and delivered a waiver of certain election law requirements and consenting to the holding of the election on June 7, 2023, which waivers are on file with the City Clerk.
Section 13. The preparation of the Engineer’s Report is hereby ratified.

The Rate and Method of Apportionment allows each property owner within CFD No. 2023-1 to estimate the annual Special Tax amount that would be required for payment. The Rate and Method of Apportionment of the Special Tax established pursuant to these proceedings, is attached hereto as Appendix A (the “Rate and Method”). The Special Tax will be collected in the same manner and at the same time as ordinary ad valorem property taxes and shall be subject to the same penalties, the same procedure, sale and lien priority in the case of delinquency; provided, however, that the CFD Administrator may directly bill the Special Taxes, may collect Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to meet the financial obligations of CFD No. 2023-1, and provided further that CFD No. 2023-1 may covenant to foreclose and may actually foreclose on parcels having delinquent Special Taxes as permitted by the Act.
All of the property located within CFD No. 2023-1, unless exempted by law or by the Rate and Method proposed for CFD No. 2023-1, shall be taxed for the purpose of providing necessary facilities to serve the District. The Boundary Map for CFD No. 2023-1 is attached hereto as Appendix B. Pursuant to Section 53325.3 of the Act, the tax imposed “is a Special Tax and not a special assessment, and there is no requirement that the tax be apportioned on the basis of benefit to any property.” The Special Tax may be based on the benefit received by property, the cost of making facilities or authorized services available or other reasonable basis as determined by the City, although the Special Tax may not be apportioned on an ad valorem basis pursuant to Article XIIIA of the California Constitution. A property owner within the District may choose to prepay in whole or in part the Special Tax. The available method for so doing is described in Section G of the Rate and Method (“Prepayment of Special Tax”).
For each year that any Bonds are outstanding the Special Tax shall be levied on all parcels subject to the Special Tax. If any delinquent Special Taxes remain uncollected prior to or after all Bonds are retired, the Special Tax may be levied to the extent necessary to reimburse CFD No. 2023-1 for uncollected Special Taxes associated with the levy of such Special Taxes, but the Special Tax shall not be levied after 2065-66 Fiscal Year.

COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 2023-1 (ROCKPORT RANCH)
OF THE CITY OF MENIFEE
ACQUISITION, CONSTRUCTION AND FUNDING AGREEMENT
THIS ACQUISITION, CONSTRUCTION AND FUNDING AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between CITY OF MENIFEE (the “City”), acting for and on behalf of itself and COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 2023-1 (ROCKPORT RANCH) OF THE CITY OF MENIFEE (the “Community Facilities District” or “CFD”) and LENNAR HOMES OF CALIFORNIA, LLC, a California limited liability company (the “Developer”), each individually a “Party” and collectively the “Parties.” WHEREAS, AG EHC II (LEN) CA 1, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “AG Land Bank”), as the landowner within the CFD, has requested that the City consider the formation of the CFD pursuant to the provisions of the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, as amended (the “Act”), and undertake proceedings for the authorization of special taxes and issuance of bonded indebtedness for the payment of the construction and/or acquisition of certain improvements to be owned, operated or maintained by the City, Eastern Municipal Water District (the “Water District”) and Menifee Union School District (the “Menifee Union School District”), as well as overhead utility undergrounding improvements required by the City as a condition of development (the “Utility Undergrounding”), and incidental expenses in accordance with the Act; and WHEREAS, Lennar Homes of California, Inc. (the predecessor to the Developer) entered into an Option Agreement (Rockport Ranch, California) dated December 28, 2021 with the AG Land Bank (the “Option Agreement”). The Developer is the successor-in-interest by converstion to Lennar Homes of California, Inc. and is, by virtue of that conversion, a party to the Option Agreement. Under the Option Agreement, the Developer has the option to acquire various lots of the Property (as defined below) according to a takedown schedule. As of the date hereof, the Developer has acquired 74 of the 305 lots comprising the Property; and
WHEREAS, in order to proceed in a timely way with development of the property within the CFD which is described in the attached Exhibit “A” (the “Property”), Developer desires to fund through the Community Facilities District (i) the City’s acquisition or construction of certain improvements that are to be owned, operated and maintained by the City or are otherwise required to be constructed by the City (i.e., the Utility Undergrounding) (“City Improvements”), as more particularly set forth and described in the Description of Cost Estimates attached hereto as Exhibit “B,” (ii) improvements included in the City’s fee programs (the “City Fee Facility Improvements”), as more particularly set forth and described in Exhibit “B,” and (iii) the improvements of the Water District and the Menifee Union School District described in Exhibit “C” hereto (the “Miscellaneous Improvements” and together with the City Improvements and the City Fee Facilities Improvements, collectively the “Improvements”); and WHEREAS, the City is authorized by the Act to form the CFD and to issue bonds secured by Special Taxes (as defined in Section 2.2) of the CFD (the “Bonds”) to fund the Improvements; and WHEREAS, the City Council has adopted the City’s policies and procedures concerning the use of special district financing programs to finance the Improvements (the “Policy”); and Item Title: 11.2
Proposed Formation of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, Rockport Ranch Item Page Number: 78
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 528 of 1858 2 4879-5200-2131v6/200299-0015
WHEREAS, the purpose of this Agreement is to constitute a formal understanding between Developer and the City (pursuant to the requirements of Government Code Section 53313.51 and other provisions of the Act and the Policy) concerning financial and other obligations and responsibilities related to the formation of the Community Facilities District and the Improvements to be financed by the Community Facilities District, when and if formed, to the extent funds are available, and to set forth the conditions upon which (1) the Community Facilities District will reimburse Developer or its designee for the cost of the City Improvements constructed by or on behalf of the Developer and (2) the Community Facilities District will fund the City Fee Facility Improvements thereby satisfying corresponding City fees; and (3) the Community Facilities District will also fund the Miscellaneous Improvements described in Exhibit “C.”
NOW, THEREFORE, it is mutually agreed between the respective Parties as follows:
1. Feasibility Study. The City has retained, at the Developer’s expense, the necessary consultants to analyze the proposed formation of the CFD, including an engineer, special tax consultant, financial advisor, bond counsel, market absorption consultant, appraiser and other consultants deemed necessary by the City. The Developer has advanced to the City a sum of money for such costs, all or a part of which may be eligible for reimbursement from the CFD in accordance with the Reimbursement Agreement dated as of May 1, 2023 (the “Reimbursement Agreement”) between the Developer and the City.
2. Sale of Bonds.
2.1 City Policies. The City Council has adopted the Policy, setting forth the City’s policies and procedures concerning the use of special district financing programs to finance the Improvements. Pursuant to the Policy, the total annual amount of the special taxes to be collected with respect to a parcel within the CFD and all other taxes and assessments which will be collected with respect to such parcel from the secured tax roll must not exceed two percent (2%) of the Fair Market Value (as defined in the Policy) of such parcel at the time of CFD formation.
The Parties hereby agree that, unless waived by the City, at the time of issuance of the Bonds, the ratio of the value of all parcels of property for which the Bonds are being issued to the amount of outstanding community facilities district or assessment district bonds attributable to such parcels (the “Value-to-Lien Ratio”) may not be less than four-to-one (4:1). Unless waived by the City, the Fair Market Value of the property within the Community Facilities District for purposes of determining the foregoing ratio will be determined based on the appraised value of the property based on the appraisal made by an appraiser selected by the City with a valuation date within three (3) months of the issuance of the Bonds, or, with respect to developed projects (as determined in the sole discretion of the City) or issuance of refunding bonds, the assessed value of the property, or some combination thereof.
Subject to satisfaction of the Policy and the requirements of this Agreement, the City shall use reasonable efforts to issue and sell the Bonds in one or more series in an amount sufficient to fund the Improvements in accordance with the schedule for development of the Property. The ultimate decision as to issuance and sizing lies in the sole legislative discretion of the City.
2.2 Security for Payment of Special Taxes.
(a) Concurrently with the issuance and sale of each series of the Bonds, the owner of any land within the Community Facilities District (or for land owned by the AG Land Bank during the term of the Option Agreement, the Developer) which the City has determined, in its sole discretion, Item Title: 11.2
Proposed Formation of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, Rockport Ranch Item Page Number: 79
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 529 of 1858 3 4879-5200-2131v6/200299-0015
to use in the sizing of such series of Bonds (the “Sizing Property”), together with any Sizing Property owned by any affiliate (collectively, an “Account Party”), for which the Maximum Special Taxes for the then-current fiscal year (as defined in the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax for the Community Facilities District (the “Rate and Method”) and such Special Tax referred to herein as the “Special Tax” or “Special Taxes”), are equal to or exceed 20% of the aggregate Maximum Special Taxes authorized to be levied on the Sizing Property in such fiscal year, shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the City either (i) a renewable irrevocable instrument of credit from a financial institution (rated “A” or better) and approved by the City, or (ii) cash in-lieu thereof (a “Security”). The Security shall be in an amount equal to 200% of the product of the maximum annual debt service on the Bonds proposed to be issued times a fraction the numerator of which is the aggregate Maximum Special Taxes on the Sizing Property in the then current fiscal year applicable to the land owned by the Account Party (or owned by the AG Land Bank during the term of the Option Agreement if the Account Party is the Developer) and the denominator of which is the total Maximum Special Taxes applicable to all of the Sizing Property in such fiscal year (the “Stated Amount”). The Security shall be maintained by the Account Party in each fiscal year until terminated in accordance with Section 2.2(c) below. While the Security is still required, the Stated Amount of such Security shall be reduced as set forth in a Certificate of Reduction or Termination (as defined in Section 2.2(c) below).
The Security shall name the Fiscal Agent as a beneficiary and shall provide that the Fiscal Agent may draw an amount equal to any delinquencies in payment of semiannual installments of the Special Taxes levied on property owned by the Account Party (or owned by the AG Land Bank during the term of the Option Agreement if the Account Party is the Developer) in the Community Facilities District. The total amount to be drawn under the Security shall not exceed an amount equal to the Special Taxes owed by the Account Party with respect to property within the Community Facilities District that is delinquent at the time the draw is made. The amount drawn on the Security shall be applied in the same manner and for the same purposes as the delinquent Special Taxes would have been applied; provided, however the payment of a draw under the Security will not be deemed to cure the delinquency in payment of the Special Taxes.
If, subsequent to a draw on the Security and prior to the satisfaction of any reimbursements due to the institution providing the Security (the “Security Provider”) pursuant to this Agreement, the City receives payment of all or a portion of the delinquent Special Taxes or the proceeds of a sale of delinquent real property pursuant to foreclosure proceedings (“Delinquency Proceeds”) for a parcel for which the Security has been drawn, the Security Provider (or its designee, which may be the Developer) shall be reimbursed for such draws to the extent of Delinquency Proceeds net of the City’s costs of collection. The Security Provider is intended by the Parties to be a third party beneficiary of this Section 2.2.
(b) The Security shall be renewed, or a substitute Security reasonably satisfactory to the City (a “Substitute Security”) provided, not less than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the expiration of the Security or Substitute Security then in effect. If the Account Party provides a Substitute Security to the City, then the Fiscal Agent shall return any existing Security on the effective date of the Substitute Security to the Security Provider.
If the Security is not renewed within thirty (30) days prior to its expiration date and the requirements for release or termination of the Security as set forth in Section 2.2(c) below have not then been met, the full amount of the Security may be drawn by the Fiscal Agent and deposited in an account established under the Indenture (as hereinafter defined) or in such account established with a financial institution selected by the City. Thereafter, amounts in such account shall be held as security, Item Title: 11.2
Proposed Formation of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, Rockport Ranch Item Page Number: 80
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 530 of 1858 4 4879-5200-2131v6/200299-0015
and if Special Taxes owed by the Account Party with respect to property within the Community Facilities District are not paid prior to delinquency, then such amounts in such account may be applied by the City to pay the delinquent Special Taxes owed by the Account Party with respect to such property on the same terms and conditions applicable hereunder to draws on the Security.
At such time as the Security is renewed, or a Substitute Security is accepted by the Fiscal Agent, or the requirement for the Security has been terminated pursuant to this section, the City or its designee, shall release all amounts in the Security account to the Security Provider (or its designee, which may be the Developer) within ten (10) calendar days from the date of renewal or acceptance. (c) Following the sale or transfer by the Account Party of any property to a person other than the Account Party, or upon the prepayment of the Special Tax obligation for a parcel owned by the Account Party (or owned by the AG Land Bank during the term of the Option Agreement if the Account Party is the Developer), the Account Party shall notify the Community Facilities District of such event, in writing, and, if requested by the Account Party, the Stated Amount of the Security shall be reduced and be recalculated in accordance with this Section 2.2; provided, however, that any costs associated with the recalculation and reduction shall be borne by the Account Party. Subject to Section 2.2(d) below, the Stated Amount may be reduced to an amount equal to 200% of the product of the maximum annual debt service on the outstanding Bonds times a fraction the numerator of which is the aggregate Maximum Special Taxes applicable to the Sizing Property owned by, or under option to, the Account Party and the denominator of which is the total Maximum Special Taxes to all of the Sizing Property as of the date of calculation. The Security shall be terminated when the Account Party has paid (or cause to be paid) all Special Taxes in the current fiscal year and the Sizing Property owned by, or under option to, the Account Party is expected to be responsible for less than 20% of the Maximum Special Taxes in the next fiscal year.
Reduction or termination of a Security shall occur automatically upon submission to the Security Provider by the Fiscal Agent of a “Certificate of Reduction or Termination” upon valuation of the Certificate of Reduction or Termination by the City. The City shall direct that the Fiscal Agent deliver to the Security Provider such Certificate of Reduction or Termination promptly upon receiving from the Account Party a certification which shall be made under penalty of perjury and which shall indicate (i) the legal description of all Sizing Property owned by, or under option to, the Account Party, and either (ii) a recalculation of the new Stated Amount that the Account Party proposes be applicable to the Security or (iii) if termination of the Security is requested, a statement that one of the requirements set forth in the preceding paragraph for termination of the Security has been satisfied.
The Account Party shall notify the City of any events that will result in a reduction of the Stated Amount of the Security and shall provide the City with verification of said events. The Account Party may provide the Fiscal Agent with a Substitute Security in the reduced amount, and the Fiscal Agent shall release and return to the Security Provider the Security then in effect. The Parties expressly acknowledge that the Account Party’s failure to so notify the City or to reduce the Security at the times prescribed herein shall in no way effect or invalidate sale or transfer of property, or recordation of maps on property.
(d) If the Sizing Property is sold or transferred by an Account Party with the result that the Sizing Property owned by the transferee or any of its affiliates (“Transferee”) is responsible for 20% or more of the aggregate Maximum Special Taxes of all Sizing Property, a Security on the same terms specified in Section 2.2(a) above will be furnished by Transferee with respect to all land owned by such Transferee with respect to the Sizing Property. Any applicable purchase and sale Item Title: 11.2
Proposed Formation of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, Rockport Ranch Item Page Number: 81
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 531 of 1858 5 4879-5200-2131v6/200299-0015
agreement and/or escrow instructions shall notify the Transferee of this Security requirement and obligate the Transferee to provide such Security, if applicable. The Security of the Account Party will not be reduced to reflect the sale or transfer of such Sizing Property until a Security is furnished by the Transferee and accepted by the Fiscal Agent. The issuing financial institution and the form and terms of said Security will be subject to reasonable prior approval by the City. All terms provided in this Section 2.2 are applicable to the Transferee by replacing the term “Account Party” at each place where it occurs in each section with the term “Transferee.” Each provider of a Security for a Transferee shall be an express third party beneficiary of the provisions of this Section 2.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Developer shall not be considered a Transferee upon the sale of property to the Developer pursuant to the Option Agreement if the Developer is the Account Party for the property owned by the AG Land Bank.
Any costs related to the holding or maintaining the Security, including any fees of a fiscal agent, trustee or other depository shall be borne by the Account Party.
2.3 Major Landowner Initial and Continuing Disclosure. An owner of land which is responsible for twenty percent (20%) or more of the Maximum Special Taxes applicable to the Sizing Property in the fiscal year in which the Bonds are issued or in the fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the Bonds are issued (a “Major Landowner”) will be required to provide, or cause to be provided, all information regarding the development of its property, including the financing plan for such development, which is necessary to ensure that the official statement for such Bonds complies with the requirements of Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Rule”) and all other applicable federal and state securities laws. Additionally, Developer acknowledges that, if it is a Major Landowner at the time of issuance of the Bonds, it will be necessary that Developer enter into a continuing disclosure agreement to provide such continuing disclosure pertaining to the development of the land owned by, or under option to, Developer within the CFD to assist in the marketing of the Bonds. During the term of the Option Agreement, the Developer may enter into a continuing disclosure agreement to provide information on the property owned by, or under option to, the Developer, and, in such case, the AG Land Bank will not be required to enter into any continuing disclosure agreement pursuant to this Section 2.3.
2.4 Bond Issuance Parameters. The terms and conditions upon which each series of the Bonds shall be issued and sold, the method of sale of the Bonds and the pricing of the Bonds shall be determined solely by the City in its legislative discretion in conformance with the Act, the Policy, and this Agreement. Each series of Bonds shall be issued with a term not to exceed 35 years from the date of issuance of the Bonds. The proceeds of the Bonds shall be used in the following priority to (1) fund a reserve fund for the payment of principal and interest with respect to the Bonds in an amount equal to the least of (i) ten percent (10%) of the total bond issue, (ii) maximum annual debt service on Bonds, or (iii) 125% of average annual debt service; (2) fund capitalized interest through the interest payment date on the Bonds for which Special Taxes are not available for payment of debt service on the Bonds or such longer period as requested by the Developer and approved by the City, subject to the Act; (3) reimburse the Developer or its designee pursuant to Section 1 hereof for CFD formation costs advanced by the Developer pursuant to the Reimbursement Agreement which have not already been reimbursed to the Developer from collected Special Tax; (4) pay for costs of issuance of the Bonds including, without limitation, underwriter’s discount, bond counsel and disclosure counsel fees, appraisal and special tax consultant fees, printing, fiscal agent fees, and reasonable Developer legal and financial consultant costs; (5) pay for the costs of forming the Community Facilities District; and (6) pay for the actual costs of the Improvements. The Community Facilities District shall maintain records relating to the disbursements of proceeds of the sale of the Item Title: 11.2
Proposed Formation of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, Rockport Ranch Item Page Number: 82
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 532 of 1858 6 4879-5200-2131v6/200299-0015
Bonds. The Indenture or Resolution or Fiscal Agent Agreement (hereinafter “Indenture”) for the Bonds shall establish an acquisition and construction fund or improvement fund (herein, the “Improvement Fund”) to be held by the fiscal agent (“Fiscal Agent”) into which shall be deposited initially the proceeds of the Bonds net of the amount of proceeds required to fund items (1) through (5) in the second preceding sentence. The Indenture shall also establish separate accounts of the Improvement Fund designated the “City Improvements Account,” “City Fee Facility Improvements Account,” and any Miscellaneous Improvement Account(s) for the Miscellaneous Improvements described in Exhibit “C,” into which shall be deposited such portions of the Improvement Fund as agreed by the Parties and directed by the City in writing at or subsequent to the closing of the sale of the Bonds consistent with the following:
(a) An amount to be agreed upon between Developer and the CFD sufficient to fund the reasonable, current estimated cost of the City Fee Facility Improvements anticipated to be funded out of the Bonds being issued shall be deposited in the City Fee Facility Improvements Account (any Special Taxes levied in the CFD and collected by the CFD remaining after the payment of administrative expenses of the CFD and the reimbursement of the Developer for CFD formation costs pursuant to Section 1 hereof shall be deposited into the City Fee Facility Improvements Account at the time of Bond issuance, unless otherwise directed in writing by the Developer); (b) If applicable, an amount to be agreed upon between Developer and the CFD prior to the issuance of Bonds sufficient to fund the reasonable, current estimated costs of the City Improvements (including the Utility Undergrounding) shall be deposited, or later transferred, to the City Improvements Account; and
(c) If applicable, an amount to be agreed upon between Developer and the CFD prior to the issuance of Bonds sufficient to fund the reasonable, current estimated cost of the Miscellaneous Improvements described in Exhibit “C” hereto, anticipated to be funded out of the Bonds being issued shall be deposited, or later transferred, to the applicable Miscellaneous Improvement Account(s).
Interest earned on moneys deposited in each of the City Fee Facility Improvements Account, the City Improvements Account and the Miscellaneous Improvement Account(s) shall remain in such accounts until such time as all of the Improvements have been funded. Additionally, the Developer may direct the CFD to transfer excess moneys in any of the City Fee Facility Improvements Account, the City Improvements Account or the Miscellaneous Improvement Account(s) to another Account.
The Indenture shall provide that amounts remaining in the Improvement Fund after funding all proposed Improvements (such completion of funding to be agreed by the City and the Developer) shall be deposited in the special tax fund or bond service fund and be applied to pay debt service on the Bonds and/or to call Bonds in advance of maturity.
3. Allocation of Special Taxes. Prior to the issuance of the last series of Bonds, the City Council of the City, acting as the legislative body of the Community Facilities District, shall levy Special Taxes on all parcels classified as Developed Property pursuant to the Rate and Method. Prior to the issuance of the first series of Bonds, such Special Taxes collected by the City shall first be applied to fund annual administrative expenses of the Community Facilities District and then to fund Improvements in the same manner as the proceeds of Bonds as set forth herein. Upon sale and delivery of the Bonds, such Special Taxes collected by the City shall be applied as provided for in documents pursuant to which the Bonds were issued. Following the issuance of the last series of Bonds, the City Item Title: 11.2
Proposed Formation of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, Rockport Ranch Item Page Number: 83
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 533 of 1858 7 4879-5200-2131v6/200299-0015
shall have no obligation to levy Special Taxes on Developed Property to reimburse the Developer for the costs of any Improvements not paid for from Bond proceeds.
4. Notice of Special Tax. Developer shall provide written notice to all potential initial purchasers of lots from the Developer advising of the special tax obligation applicable to the Property in the form required by Section 53341.5 of the Government Code.
5. Design Plans and Specifications. The requirements of this Section shall not apply to any City Improvement that was complete (as determined by the City Council) prior to the adoption by the City Council of the resolution forming the CFD, but they shall apply to all other City Improvements.
All plans, specifications and bid documents for the City Improvements (“Plans”) constructed or to be constructed by the Developer shall be prepared by the Developer at the Developer’s initial expense, subject to approval by the applicable public agency. Costs for preparation of the Plans will be eligible for reimbursement, conditioned upon the final approval of the applicable public agency and the availability of funds. Reimbursement of costs for plan revisions will be considered on a case by case basis. All facilities which were not complete prior to the formation of the District, as determined by the City, shall be bid in accordance with “public works” requirements of Section 7 to be eligible for reimbursement.
6. Construction of Improvements. The requirements of this Section shall not apply to any City Improvement that was complete (as determined by the City Council) prior to the adoption by the City Council of the resolution forming the CFD, but they shall apply to all other City Improvements.
6.1 Acquisition of City Improvements. Upon the approval of Plans for a City Improvement, the Developer will provide for construction of such City Improvement in accordance with Sections 6.2 and 7 of this Agreement. Sections 6.2 and 7 specify the requirements for construction of the City Improvements that the City believes are necessary to ensure that such City Improvements are constructed as if they had been constructed under the direction and supervision, or under the authority of the City.
6.2 Acquisition. With respect to City Improvements, a qualified engineering firm (the “Field Engineer”) shall be employed by the Developer to provide all field engineering surveys determined to be necessary by the City’s inspection personnel. Field Engineer shall promptly furnish to City a complete set of grade sheets listing all locations, offsets, etc., in accordance with good engineering practices, and attendant data and reports resulting from Field Engineer’s engineering surveys and/or proposed facility design changes. City shall have the right, but not the obligation, to review, evaluate and analyze whether such results comply with applicable specifications.
As necessary as determined by City, a full-time soil-testing firm, approved by City, shall be employed by the Developer to conduct soil compaction testing and certification. The Developer shall promptly furnish results of all such compaction testing to the City for its review, evaluation and decision as to compliance with applicable specifications. In the event the compaction is not in compliance with applicable specifications, the Developer shall be fully liable and responsible for the costs of achieving compliance. A final report certifying all required compaction in accordance with the specifications shall be a condition of final approval of facilities.
The costs of all surveying, testing and reports associated with the City Improvements furnished and constructed by the Developer’s contractor(s) shall be eligible to be paid from funds in the City Improvements Account.

The City shall not be responsible for conducting any environmental, archaeological, biological, or cultural studies or any mitigation requirements that may be requested by appropriate Federal, State, and/or local agencies. Any such work shall be paid for and conducted by the Developer and reimbursed out of the City Improvements Account.
Should the Developer notify the City in writing that the Developer is unable to complete such City Improvement, the City shall have the right but not the obligation to require the Developer to make an irrevocable offer of dedication to the City of the land owned by the Developer for the City Improvement identified in the notice and to assume responsibility for the work to be performed thereunder. In the event the City elects to assume the responsibility for any work on a previously awarded contract as described in the preceding sentence, the following will occur: (i) the Developer will make an irrevocable offer of dedication to the City of the land owned by the Developer for such City Improvement identified in the notice; (ii) to the extent permitted by law and the applicable contract, the Developer will assign all of the contracts for the work performed to date on the City Improvement identified in the notice to the City, if requested to do so by the City Manager; the City will use its best efforts to complete the City Improvement within a reasonable time frame; and upon completion of the City Improvement, to the extent there are Special Taxes or proceeds of the Bonds available following payment to the City for the costs of completing such City Improvement, the Developer will be reimbursed for the lesser of the cost or value of the previously unreimbursed satisfactory work performed or paid for by the Developer. The cost of such work will be determined by taking the unreimbursed amounts expended by the Developer under the contract(s) taken over by the City and deducting any incremental cost incurred by the City to complete the work under the contracts in question. Incremental cost shall be costs in excess of the sum of the original contract cost plus change orders approved by the City.
7. Public Works Requirements.
City Requirements. The requirements of this Section shall not apply to any City Improvement that was complete (as determined by the City Council) prior to the adoption by the City Council of the resolution forming the CFD, but they shall apply to all other City Improvements.

Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 535 of 1858 9 4879-5200-2131v6/200299-0015
to whom the Developer proposes to award the contracts for such construction, which shall be the lowest responsible bidder.
(c) For any City Improvements bid after the effective date of this Agreement, the following provisions apply: the City Representative shall attend the bid opening for such City Improvements. If unable to attend the bid opening, the City Representative shall approve or disapprove of a contractor or contractors, in writing, within five (5) business days after receipt from the Developer of the name or names of such contractor or contractors recommended by the Developer. If the City Representative disapproves of any such contractor, the Developer shall select the next lowest responsible bidder from the competitive bids received who is acceptable to the City Representative. (d) The specifications and bid and contract documents shall require all such contractors to pay prevailing wages and to otherwise comply with applicable provisions of the Labor Code, the Government Code and the Public Contract Code relating to public works projects constructed by private parties and as required by the procedures and standards of the City with respect to the construction of its public works projects.
(e) The Developer shall submit faithful performance and payment bonds in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the City with respect to the City Improvements. (f) The Developer and its contractor and subcontractors shall be required to provide proof of insurance coverage throughout the term of the construction of the City Improvements, which they will construct in conformance with the City’s standard procedures and requirements.

In accordance with Section 7, the Developer shall be deemed the awarding body and shall be solely responsible for compliance and enforcement of the provisions of the Labor Code, Government Code, and Public Contract Code. (h) A “Change Order” is an order from the Developer to a contractor authorizing a change in the work to be performed and a “Significant Change Order” is an order from the Developer to a contractor authorizing a change in the work to be performed where such Change Order is larger than 10% of the contract amount for such City Improvement. After the effective date of this Agreement, the Developer shall receive comments from the City Representative prior to the Developer’s approval of any Significant Change Order. The City Representative shall comment on or deny the Significant Change Order request within fifteen (15) business days of receipt of all necessary information. The City’s comments to a Significant Change Order shall not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld. The Developer shall not be entitled to be compensated for costs associated with a Significant Change Order that has not been approved by the City Representative.
Developer shall provide proof to the City, at such intervals and in such form as the City may reasonably require, that the foregoing requirements have been satisfied as to all of the City Improvements which are funded through Bond proceeds or Special Taxes.

8. Inspection; Completion of Construction. The requirements of this Section shall not apply to any City Improvement that was complete (as determined by the City Council) prior to the adoption by the City Council of the resolution forming the CFD, but they shall apply to all other City Improvements.
The City shall have primary responsibility for inspecting the City Improvements to assure that the work is being accomplished in accordance with the Plans. Such inspection does not include inspection for compliance with safety requirements by the Developer’s contractor(s). The City’s personnel shall be granted access to each construction site at all reasonable times for the purpose of accomplishing such inspection. Upon satisfaction of the City’s inspectors, the Developer shall notify the City in writing that a City Improvement has been completed in accordance with the Plans. Any actual costs reasonably incurred by the City for inspection not previously paid by the Developer shall be reimbursed from funds in the City Improvements Account.
Within three (3) business days of receipt of written notification from City inspectors that a City Improvement has been completed in accordance with the Plans, the City Representative shall notify the Developer in writing that such City Improvement has been satisfactorily completed. Upon receiving such notification, the Developer shall file a Notice of Completion with the County of Riverside Recorders Office, pursuant to the provisions of Section 3093 of the Civil Code. The Developer shall furnish to the City a duplicate copy of each such Notice of Completion showing thereon the date of filing with the County of Riverside (the “County”). City will in turn file a notice with the County for acceptance.
9. Liens. With respect to any City Improvement that was complete (as determined by the City Council) prior to the adoption by the City Council of the resolution forming the CFD, prior to any payment by the CFD to the Developer for such City Improvement, the Developer shall provide to the City such evidence or proof as the City shall require that all persons, firms and corporations supplying work, labor, materials, supplies and equipment for the construction of the City Improvements have been paid, and that no claims of liens have been recorded by or on behalf of any such person, firm or corporation. With respect to City Improvements, upon the earlier of (i) receipt of all applicable lien releases, or (ii) expiration of the time for the recording of claim of liens as prescribed by Sections 3115 and 3116 of the Civil Code the Developer shall provide to the City such evidence or proof as the City shall require that all persons, firms and corporations supplying work, labor, materials, supplies and equipment for the construction of the City Improvements have been paid, and that no claims of liens have been recorded by or on behalf of any such person, firm or corporation.
10. Acquisition; Acquisition Price; Source of Funds. The acquisition price of a City Improvement that was complete (as determined by the City Council) prior to the adoption by the City Council of the resolution forming the CFD shall be its fair market value, as determined by the City’s Assistant General Manager or his or her designee, as of the date of acquisition. The City shall consider input and data provided by the Developer prior to determining the final fair market value. The Actual Cost (as defined below) of the City Improvement shall be presumed to be its fair market value unless there is reasonable evidence that a lower amount is the fair market value.
The costs eligible to be included in the acquisition price of a City Improvement that is not described in the preceding paragraph shall be the actual costs incurred by the Developer for such City Improvement (the “Actual Costs”) which shall include, but not be limited to, all of the following:
Item Title: 11.2
Proposed Formation of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, Rockport Ranch Item Page Number: 87
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 537 of 1858 11 4879-5200-2131v6/200299-0015
(i) The actual hard costs for the construction of such City Improvement as established by the City-approved construction contracts, Change Orders, and approved Significant Change Orders, including costs of payment, performance and maintenance bonds and insurance costs, pursuant to this Agreement;
(ii) The design and engineering costs of such City Improvement including, without limitation, the costs incurred in preparing the Plans; (iii) The costs of environmental evaluations and public agency permits and approvals attributable to the City Improvement;
(iv) Costs incurred by the Developer for construction management and supervision of such City Improvement, not to exceed five percent (5%) of the actual construction cost; (v) Professional costs associated with the City Improvement such as engineering, inspection, construction staking, materials, testing and similar professional services; and (vi) Costs approved by the City in accordance with the Act of acquiring any real property or interests therein required for the City Improvement including, without limitation, temporary construction easements, temporary by-pass road and maintenance easements.
Provided the Developer has complied with the requirements of this Agreement, the City agrees to pay the acquisition price of a completed City Improvement to the Developer or its designee within thirty (30) days after the Developer’s satisfaction of the preconditions to such payment stated herein, but only to the extent there are sufficient funds available in the City Improvements Account. Except in the case of a City Improvement described in the first paragraph of this Section, the acquisition price to be paid from Bond proceeds or Special Taxes for the acquisition of a City Improvement by the City shall be the least of (1) the value of the City Improvement; or (2) the total of the Actual Costs of the City Improvement (“Acquisition Price”). The Actual Cost of the City Improvement shall be presumed to be its Acquisition Price unless there is reasonable evidence that a lower amount is the actual value, subject, however, to the Developer’s right to appeal to the City Council. Any Acquisition Price that is not paid in full by the then-available Bond proceeds and Special Taxes shall be paid upon receipt by the City of additional available Bond proceeds and Special Taxes, if any.
As a condition to the payment of the Acquisition Price, the ownership of the completed City Improvement shall be transferred to the City by grant deed, bill of sale or such other documentation as such public agency may require free and clear of all taxes, liens, encumbrances, and assessments, but subject to any exceptions determined by the City to not interfere with the actual or intended use of the land or interest therein (including the lien of a community facilities district so long as the subject property is exempt from taxation or is otherwise not taxable by such community facilities district).
Upon the transfer of ownership of City Improvements or any portion thereof to the City, the City shall be responsible for the maintenance of such City Improvements or the portion transferred.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Acquisition Price of a City Improvement may be paid prior to transfer of ownership and acceptance of the City Improvement if it is substantially completed at the time of payment. The City Improvement shall be considered “substantially complete” when it has been reasonably determined by the City to be usable, subject to final completion of such items as the final lift or any other items not essential to the primary use or operation of the City Improvement.
Item Title: 11.2
Proposed Formation of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, Rockport Ranch Item Page Number: 88
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 538 of 1858 12 4879-5200-2131v6/200299-0015
Upon completion of the construction of a City Improvement, the Developer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the City a Disbursement Request Form in substantially the form of Exhibit “D,” attached hereto, copies of the contract(s) with the contractor(s) who have constructed the City Improvement and other relevant documentation with regard to the payments made to such contractor(s) and each of them for the construction of the City Improvement, documentation evidencing payment of prevailing wages, and shall also provide to the City invoices and purchase orders with respect to all equipment, materials and labor purchased for the construction of the City Improvements. The City shall require the Engineer to complete its determination of the value of the City Improvements as promptly as is reasonably possible.
Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section, the source of funds for the acquisition of the City Improvements or any portion thereof shall be funds in the City Improvements Account. If for any reason beyond the City’s control the Bonds are not sold, the City shall not be required to acquire the City Improvements from the Developer, except to the extent of funds from the collection of Special Taxes. In such event, the Developer shall design and construct those City Improvements that are required by the conditions of development for the Property, but need not construct any portion of the City Improvements which it is not so required to construct.
Reimbursement for these facilities would be made from the collection of Special Taxes over time.
In addition to the foregoing, the City shall have the right to withhold payment for acquisition of a City Improvement, if:
(a) the Developer or any of its affiliates is delinquent in the payment of any Special Taxes levied by the Community Facilities District on properties then owned by, or under option to, the Developer or any of its affiliates within the CFD, or
(b) the Developer is not then in substantial compliance with a condition or obligation imposed upon the Property owned by, or under option to, the Developer by the City, including but not limited to, payment of all applicable fees, dedication of all applicable rights-of-way or other property and construction requirements.
The City shall immediately provide written notice to the Developer of the decision to withhold any such payment and shall specify the reason for such decision. If the payment is withheld as a result of the delinquency in the payment of Special Taxes, the notice shall identify the delinquent parcels and the amount of such delinquency. If the payment is withheld as a result of substantial non-compliance with a condition or obligation, the notice shall specify such condition or obligation and what action will be necessary by the Developer to substantially comply with such condition or obligation. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the City that the Developer has paid the delinquent Special Taxes or complied with the subject condition or obligation, the City shall forthwith make all payments which have been withheld pursuant to the provisions of this Section.
11. Easements and/or Fee Title Ownership Deeds. Without limiting the Developer’s rights to reimbursement for such grants pursuant to Section 10 above, the Developer shall, at the time the City acquires the City Improvements as provided in Section 10 hereof, grant or cause to be granted to the City, by appropriate instruments prescribed by the City, all easements across private property and/or fee title ownership deeds which may be reasonably necessary for the proper operation and maintenance of such City Improvements, or any part thereof, but only to the extent located within the Property.

12. Permits. The Developer shall be responsible for obtaining all necessary construction permits from the City and/or the County (as appropriate) covering construction and installation of the City Improvement.
13. Maintenance. Prior to the transfer of ownership of a City Improvement by the Developer to the City, as provided in Section 10 hereof, the Developer shall be responsible for the maintenance thereof and shall require its contractor(s) to repair all facilities damaged by any party other than the City, prior to acceptance by the City and/or make corrections determined to be necessary by the City’s inspection personnel. The City shall not be permitted to place any City Improvement in service prior to acceptance of the same, unless the Developer otherwise consents in writing.
14. Inspection of Records. The City shall have the right to review all books and records of the Developer pertaining to the costs and expenses incurred by the Developer for the design and construction of the City Improvements during normal business hours by making arrangements with the Developer. The Developer shall have the right to review all books and records of the City pertaining to costs and expenses incurred by the City for services of the Engineer by making arrangements with the City.
15. Ownership of Improvements. Notwithstanding the fact that some or all of the City Improvements may be constructed in dedicated street rights-of-way or on property which has been or will be dedicated to the City, each City Improvement shall be and remain the property of the Developer until acquired by the City as provided in this Agreement. The foregoing shall not apply to the Utility Undergrounding.
16. Materials and Workmanship Warranty. The requirements of this Section shall not apply to any City Improvement that was complete (as determined by the City Council) prior to the adoption by the City Council of the resolution forming the CFD, but they shall apply to all other City Improvements.
Upon the completion of the acquisition of a City Improvement by the City, the performance bond related to such individual City Improvement provided by the Developer pursuant to Section 7.1(e) hereof, shall be reduced by 90%, and the remaining 10% shall serve as a maintenance bond to guarantee that such City Improvement will be free from defects due to faulty workmanship or materials for a period of one year.
17. City Fee Facility Improvements. The Developer may be required pursuant to the conditions of development or the fee ordinance to pay certain City fees (the “City Fees”) relating to the City Fee Facility Improvements prior to the availability of proceeds of the Bonds to pay for such City Fee Facility Improvements. In the event such City Fees are paid prior to the availability of Bond proceeds or Special Taxes, the amounts paid to the City shall be deemed to be deposits (each a “Deposit”) that are subject to refund by the City to the Developer in accordance with this Agreement.
The City shall place each Deposit in a capital facilities account(s). If the Developer has made any Deposits to the City, then following deposit of Bond proceeds or Special Taxes in the City Fee Facility Improvements Account, the City shall return to the Developer, from the capital account in which the Deposits were deposited the Deposits not previously returned, without interest or other earnings thereon. The City shall be so obligated to return such Deposits only to the extent that an equivalent amount of the Deposits to be returned is deposited in the City Fee Facility Improvements Account from Bond proceeds or Special Tax collections.
Item Title: 11.2

Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 540 of 1858 14 4879-5200-2131v6/200299-0015
Bond proceeds and Special Taxes used to finance City Fee Facility Improvements which relate to the City Fees shall be allocated first for return of all Deposits prior to being allocated to the payment of City Fees not previously deposited by the Developer. For any City Fees that are prepaid (i.e., no Deposits were previously made for such City Fees) by Bond proceeds or Special Taxes, the owner of the property for which the City Fees were prepaid shall be provided a credit against the payment of such City Fees when those City Fees would otherwise be due.
Any Deposits that have not been returned to the Developer at the time it is determined that there will be no further Special Taxes or Bond proceeds available (i.e. the final series of Bonds to finance the Improvements have been issued) shall be retained by the City and may be used for the purposes for which the City Fee was required, and the unrefunded Deposits shall constitute full and final payment for such City Fees, without any increase of any kind.
18. Miscellaneous Improvements. Improvements unrelated to the City Improvements and the City Fee Facility Improvements are described in Exhibit “C” attached hereto. The amounts deposited in the applicable Miscellaneous Improvement Account(s), if any, will be disbursed for the acquisition or construction of Miscellaneous Improvements in accordance with the provisions in the applicable Joint Community Facilities Agreement. Any amounts in the applicable Miscellaneous Improvement Account(s) shall be disbursed at the written direction of the City upon Developer’s submittal of a payment request which will be based upon applicable entity’s payment request form as provided for in the applicable Joint Community Facilities Agreement. Upon receipt of such payment request, the City shall submit a written requisition for payment of the requested amount to the Fiscal Agent for the Bonds, who shall directly pay the amount requested to the applicable entity.
19. Independent Contractor. In performing this Agreement, Developer is an independent contractor and not the agent of the City. The City shall not have any responsibility for payment to any contractor or supplier of Developer. It is not intended by the Parties that this Agreement create a partnership or joint venture among them and this Agreement shall not otherwise be construed.
20. Indemnification. Developer shall assume the defense of, indemnify and save harmless, the City, its officers, employees and agents, and the Community Facilities District, its officers, employees and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against all actions, damages, claims, losses or expenses of every type and description to which they may be subject or put, by reason of, or resulting from such person’s or entity’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the construction of the City Improvements and the Miscellaneous Improvements, the failure of the Developer to provide notice of the Special Tax to be levied by the Community Facilities District pursuant to Section 53341.5 of the Act (but only if the Developer is required by law to provide such notice), or arising out of any alleged misstatements of fact or alleged omission of a material fact made by the Developer, its officers, directors, employees or agents to the City, the Community Facilities District, the underwriter of the Bonds and its counsel, the appraiser, the special tax consultant, the market absorption consultant or bond counsel regarding the Developer, its proposed developments, its property ownership, and any contractual arrangement it may enter into in a disclosure document describing the Community Facilities District and the risks relating to the Bonds. No provision of this Agreement shall in any way limit the extent of Developer’s responsibility for payment of damages resulting from the operations of Developer and its contractors; provided, however that Developer shall not be required to assume the defense or indemnify and save harmless any Indemnified Party as to actions, damages, claims, losses or expenses resulting from the breach of this Agreement, the negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party or their officers, agents, consultants or employees.

21. Insurance Requirements. For City Improvements bid after the effective date of this Agreement, neither the Developer nor its contractor shall commence work on such City Improvement under this Agreement prior to obtaining insurance with a company or companies acceptable to the City, nor shall the Developer’s contractor allow any subcontractor to commence work on its subcontract until all insurance required of the subcontractor has been obtained.
The Developer shall during the life of this Agreement, notify the City in writing of any incident giving rise to any potential bodily injury or property damage claim and any resultant settlements, whether in conjunction with this or any other project which may affect the limits of the required coverage, as soon as is reasonable and practical.
22. Conflict With Other Agreements. Except as specifically provided herein, nothing contained herein shall be construed as releasing Developer from any condition of development or requirement imposed by any other agreement with City. In the event of a conflicting provision, such other agreement shall prevail unless such conflicting provision is specifically waived or modified in writing by City.
23. Notices. Any notice, payment or instrument required or permitted by this Agreement to be given or delivered to either Party shall be deemed to have been received when personally delivered or seventy-two (72) hours following deposit of the same in any United States Post Office in California, registered or certified, postage prepaid.

(d) If the City accepts City Improvements before a Disbursement Request is paid in full, the unpaid balance of the Disbursement Request will be paid from time to time, in any number of installments and irrespective of the length of time payment is deferred, as funds from the proceeds of Bonds or Special Taxes become available.
(e) The Developer’s conveyance or dedication of City Improvements to the City before the availability of funds from the proceeds of Bonds and Special Taxes to acquire the City Improvements is not and shall not be deemed, a gift or a waiver of the Developer’s right to payment of the purchase price of such City Improvements pursuant to this Agreement.

Failure by a Party to insist upon the strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the other Parties hereto, or the failure by a Party to exercise its rights upon the default of another Party, shall not constitute a waiver of such Party’s right to insist and demand strict compliance by such other Parties with the terms of this Agreement thereafter.

directions from EMWD relating to EMWD Facilities), the Developer shall be deemed to have satisfied the applicable EMWD Fees with respect to the number of dwelling units or lots for which the EMWD Fees would otherwise have been required in an amount equal to such disbursement. (c) EMWD agrees that prior to submitting a Disbursement Request requesting payment from the CFD it shall review and approve all costs included in its request and will have already paid or incurred such costs of EMWD Facilities from its own funds (which may include Advances from the Developer) subsequent to the date of this Agreement, or will disburse such amounts to pay the costs of EMWD Facilities following receipt of funds from the CFD. In the event that EMWD does not disburse any Bond Proceeds (or equivalent amount of Advances repaid pursuant to the second to the last sentence of the first paragraph of Section 5(a) above) received by it to third parties within five banking days of receipt, it will trace and report to the CFD all earnings, if any, earned by EMWD, from the date of receipt of such Bond Proceeds by EMWD (or the date of disbursement pursuant to the second to the last sentence of the first paragraph of Section 5(a) above) to the date of expenditure by EMWD for capital costs of the EMWD Facilities. Such report shall be delivered at least semiannually until all Bond Proceeds are expended by EMWD. EMWD agrees that in processing the above disbursements it will comply with all legal requirements for the expenditure of Bond Proceeds under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and any amendments thereto. (d) EMWD agrees to maintain adequate internal controls over its payment function and to maintain accounting records in accordance with generally accepted accounting procedures.
EMWD will, upon request, provide the City and/or the Developer with access to EMWD’s records related to the EMWD Facilities and expenditure of Advances and will provide to the City its annual financial report certified by an independent certified public accountant for purposes of assisting the City in calculating the arbitrage rebate obligation of the CFD, if any. (e) The City or the CFD agrees to maintain full and accurate records of all amounts, and investment earnings, if any, expended from the Other Facilities Account of the Improvement Fund and expenditure of Advances. The City or the CFD will, upon request, provide EMWD and/or Developer with access to the City’s or the CFD’s records related to the Other Facilities Account of the Improvement Fund.
(f) The City acknowledges that it is in receipt of and has reviewed the EMWD Comprehensive Debt Policy (“Debt Policy”).

However, City and EMWD acknowledge that the City has the ultimate responsibility for issuance of the Bonds, the administration of the CFD, and the tax-exempt status of any Bonds issued by the CFD.

(d) Inspection; Completion of Construction. EMWD shall have primary responsibility for inspecting the Acquisition Facility to assure that the work is being accomplished in accordance with the Plans. Such inspection does not include inspection for compliance with safety requirements by the Developer’s contractor(s). EMWD’s personnel shall be granted access to each construction site at all reasonable times for the purpose of accomplishing such inspection. Upon satisfaction of EMWD’s inspectors, the Developer shall notify EMWD in writing that an Acquisition Facility has been completed in accordance with the Plans.
Within three (3) business days of receipt of written notification from EMWD inspectors that an Acquisition Facility has been completed in accordance with the Plans, the EMWD Representative shall notify the Developer in writing that such Acquisition Facility has been satisfactorily completed. Upon receiving such notification, the Developer shall file a Notice of Completion with the County of Riverside Recorder’s Office, pursuant to the provisions of Section 3093 of the Civil Code. The Developer shall furnish to EMWD a duplicate copy of each such Notice of Completion showing thereon the date of filing with the County of Riverside (the “County”). EMWD will in turn file a notice with the County for acceptance. (e) Liens. With respect to the Acquisition Facility, upon the earlier of (i) receipt of all applicable lien releases, or (ii) expiration of the time for the recording of claim of liens as prescribed by Sections 3115 and 3116 of the Civil Code, the Developer shall provide to EMWD such evidence or proof as EMWD shall require that all persons, firms and corporations supplying work, labor, materials, supplies and equipment for the construction of the Acquisition Facility have been paid, and that no claims of liens have been recorded by or on behalf of any such person, firm or corporation.
(f) Acquisition; Acquisition Price; Source of Funds. The costs eligible to be included in the acquisition price of the Acquisition Facility (the “Actual Costs”) shall include:
(i) The actual hard costs for the construction of such Acquisition Facility as established by EMWD-approved construction contracts and approved Change Orders, including costs of payment, performance and maintenance bonds and insurance costs, pursuant to this Agreement;
(ii) The design and engineering costs of such Acquisition Facility including, without limitation, the costs incurred in preparing the Plans. Costs for plan revisions will be considered on a case by case basis;
(iii) The costs of environmental evaluations and public agency permits and approvals attributable to the Acquisition Facility;
(iv) Costs incurred by the Developer for construction management and supervision of such Acquisition Facility, not to exceed five percent (5%) of the actual hard costs of construction, subject to prior approval by EMWD of any construction management or supervision contract with respect to the Acquisition Facility;
(v) Professional costs associated with the Acquisition Facility such as engineering, inspection, construction staking, materials, testing and similar professional services; and Item Title: 11.2
Proposed Formation of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, Rockport Ranch Item Page Number: 110
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 560 of 1858 9 4879-0857-0965/200299-0015
(vi) Costs approved by EMWD of acquiring from an unrelated third party any real property or interests therein required for the Acquisition Facility including, without limitation, temporary construction easements, temporary by-pass road and maintenance easements.
Provided the Developer has complied with the requirements of this Agreement, EMWD agrees to execute and submit to the City a Payment Request for payment of the acquisition price of the completed Acquisition Facility to the Developer or its designee within thirty (30) days after the Developer’s satisfaction of the preconditions to such payment stated herein.
As a condition to EMWD’s execution of the Payment Request for the acquisition price, the property ownership of the completed Acquisition Facility shall be transferred to EMWD by grant deed, bill of sale or such other documentation as EMWD may require free and clear of all taxes, liens, encumbrances, and assessments, but subject to any exceptions determined by EMWD to not interfere with the actual or intended use of the land or interest therein (including the lien of a community facilities district so long as the subject property is exempt from taxation or is otherwise not taxable by such community facilities district). Upon the transfer of property ownership of the Acquisition Facility or any portion thereof to EMWD, EMWD shall be responsible for the maintenance of such Acquisition Facility or the portion transferred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the acquisition price of an Acquisition Facility may be paid prior to transfer of property ownership and acceptance of the Acquisition Facility if it is substantially completed at the time of payment. The Acquisition Facility shall be considered “substantially complete” when it has been reasonably determined by EMWD to be usable, subject to final completion of such items as the final lift or any other items not essential to the primary use or operation of the Acquisition Facility.
For purposes of determining the acquisition price to be paid by the CFD for the acquisition of each Acquisition Facility by EMWD, the value of such Acquisition Facility shall include the construction costs specified in EMWD-approved contracts and EMWD-approved change orders conforming to this Section 7, as hereinbefore specified. EMWD approval is a condition prior to initiation of contract work. However, if EMWD reasonably determines that the additional Actual Costs are excessive and that the value of the Acquisition Facility is less than the total amount of such Actual Costs and such construction costs, the price to be paid for the acquisition of the Acquisition Facility shall be the value thereof as determined by the EMWD Engineer Representative, subject, however, to the Developer’s right to appeal to EMWD’s Board of Directors.
Upon completion of the construction of an Acquisition Facility, the Developer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to EMWD a Payment Request in substantially the form of Exhibit E, attached hereto, copies of the contract(s) with the contractor(s) who have constructed the Acquisition Facility and other relevant documentation with regard to the payments made to such contractor(s) and each of them for the construction of the Acquisition Facility, documentation evidencing payment of prevailing wages, and shall also provide to EMWD invoices and purchase orders with respect to all equipment, materials and labor purchased for the construction of the Acquisition Facility. EMWD shall require the EMWD Engineer Representative to complete its determination of the acquisition price of the Acquisition Facility as promptly as is reasonably possible.
Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section, the source of funds for the acquisition of the Acquisition Facility or any portion thereof shall be funds on deposit in the Other Facilities Account of the Improvement Fund. If no such funds are available, EMWD shall not be required to acquire the Acquisition Facility from the Developer. In such event, the Developer shall complete the design and construction and offer to EMWD property ownership of such portions of the Item Title: 11.2
Proposed Formation of Community Facilities District No. 2023-1, Rockport Ranch Item Page Number: 111
Menifee Mayor and City Council June 7, 2023 Page 561 of 1858 10 4879-0857-0965/200299-0015
Acquisition Facility as are required to be constructed by the Developer as a condition to recordation of subdivision maps for the Property, but need not construct any portion of the Acquisition Facility which it is not so required to construct. Reimbursement for these facilities would be made pursuant to the “Standard Water and/or Sewer Facilities and Service Agreement(s)” by and between EMWD and the Developer.
(g) Easements and/or Fee Title Property Ownership Deeds. The Developer shall, at the time EMWD acquires the Acquisition Facility as provided in Section 7(f) hereof, grant or cause to be granted to EMWD, by appropriate instruments prescribed by EMWD, all easements across private property and/or fee title property ownership deeds which may be reasonably necessary for the proper operation and maintenance of such Acquisition Facility, or any part thereof. (h) Permits. The Developer shall be responsible for obtaining all necessary construction permits from the City covering construction and installation of the Acquisition Facility.
EMWD will request the City to issue an “operate and maintain permit” to EMWD, which will become effective upon the completion of the Acquisition Facility and acceptance of property ownership therewith by EMWD.
(i) Maintenance. Prior to the transfer of property ownership of an Acquisition Facility by the Developer to EMWD, as provided in Section 7(f) hereof, the Developer shall be responsible for the maintenance thereof and shall require its contractor(s) to repair all facilities damaged by any party, prior to acceptance by EMWD and/or make corrections determined to be necessary by EMWD’s inspection personnel.
(j) Inspection of Records. EMWD shall have the right to review all books and records of the Developer pertaining to the costs and expenses incurred by the Developer for the design and construction of the Acquisition Facility during normal business hours by making arrangements with the Developer. The Developer shall have the right to review all books and records of EMWD pertaining to costs and expenses incurred by EMWD for services of the EMWD Engineer Representative by making arrangements with EMWD.
(k) Property Ownership of Improvements. Notwithstanding the fact that some or all of the Acquisition Facility may be constructed in dedicated street rights-of-way or on property which has been or will be dedicated to EMWD, each Acquisition Facility shall be and remain the property of the Developer until acquired by EMWD as provided in this Agreement. (l) Materials and Workmanship Warranty. Upon the completion of the acquisition of an Acquisition Facility by EMWD, the performance bond related to such individual Acquisition Facility provided by the Developer pursuant to Section 7(c)(v) hereof, shall be reduced by 90%, and the remaining 10% shall serve as a maintenance bond to guarantee that such Acquisition Facility will be free from defects due to faulty workmanship or materials for a period of one year. Release of performance and payment bonds is addressed in the Standard Water and/or Sewer Facilities and Service Agreement, by and between EMWD and the Developer. (m) Independent Contractor. In performing this Agreement with respect to the Acquisition Facilities, the Developer is an independent contractor and not the agent of EMWD.
EMWD shall not have any responsibility for payment to any contractor, subcontractor or supplier of the Developer. It is not intended by the Parties that this Agreement create a partnership or joint venture among them and this Agreement shall not otherwise be construed.

(n) Insurance Requirements. Neither the Developer nor its contractor shall commence work on an Acquisition Facility under this Agreement prior to obtaining all insurance required hereunder with a company or companies acceptable to EMWD, nor shall the Developer’s contractor allow any subcontractor to commence work on its subcontract until all insurance required of the subcontractor has been obtained.
