CITY OF MENIFEE
SUBJECT: Agreement Amendment with Parsons Transportation Group, Inc. for Traffic Engineering Review
MEETING DATE: June 4, 2025
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Mandy Stephens, Management Analyst
REVIEWED BY: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director
APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RECOMMENDED ACTION

1. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 to the Master Agreement with Parsons Transportation Group, Inc., for Traffic Engineering Services, increasing the compensation by $150,000, for a three-year total agreement amount not-to- exceed $450,000.

DISCUSSION
On June 21, 2023, the City Council approved various Master Agreements for professional on-call services with firms previously established on an approved on-call shortlist for Engineering.

Parsons Transportation Group, Inc. (Parsons) is one of the Shortlist firms initially designated to provide on-call traffic engineering reviews for Engineering.

A Master Agreement for on-call traffic engineering services (“Agreement”) was initially established with Parsons for a three-year contract term from July 1, 2023, through June 30, 2026, and for a total agreement not-to-exceed amount of $150,000. Due to the continued, and increasing volume of development activities requiring traffic related plans, traffic impact studies, and traffic signal timing reviews, and given the limited responsiveness of other firms, staff has relied heavily on Parsons for the performance of technical traffic engineering support over the last fiscal year. The need for continued support is compounded by the challenges the City has faced in its efforts to successfully fill the vacant Principal Engineer position in the City’s Traffic Engineering Division.

Traffic engineering services are a critical element of maintaining public safety on roadways while playing a key role in adequately addressing future transportation needs of the City well ahead of planned growth. While there are multiple firms approved as shortlist service providers, Parsons has consistently been very responsive for traffic engineering support needs. The proposed Amendment No. 2 (Amendment) would increase the Parsons Agreement by $150,000, to a total not-to-exceed limit of $450,000 through June 2026. If approved, the Amendment would provide Item Title: 10.13

staff the opportunity to maintain continuity on development projects that are already being supported by Parsons’ services and would ensure capacity for assigning additional technical traffic related reviews to the firm in the future. All other terms of the Agreement would remain unchanged, as outlined in Table 1 below.

STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVE
Safe and Vibrant Community

FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact of the proposed amendment is not-to-exceed $150,000 through the contract term of fiscal year (FY) 2025/2026, bringing the total agreement to a not-to-exceed amount of $450,000. Funding for a portion of the proposed amendment is available within the FY 2024/2025 budget, under professional services reimbursable for Public Works Traffic Engineering division within the General Fund (1100-PWD-TREN-652825). Funding in FY 2025/2026 would be budgeted accordingly.

It is important to note that traffic engineering review services are recoverable and would be offset by developer fees and deposits collected for the services. Purchase orders for these services would only be issued following confirmation of budget availability and only for amounts within the approved not-to-exceed agreement compensation amounts.

On December 29, 2021, the City issued Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 2022-10 for citywide janitorial services. At the conclusion of the RFP process, Aztec Janitorial Services (Aztec) was selected as the most responsive and qualified bidder. A Contract Service Agreement was approved by the Council on April 20, 2022, with services beginning Fiscal Year (FY) 2021/22.

The initial performance period of the agreement included the following:
•Year 1 (FY 2021/22): March 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022
•Year 2 (FY 2022/23): July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023
•Year 3 (FY 2023/24): July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024
•Year 4 (FY 2024/25): July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025
At the end of the initial performance period, the City reserved the right to renew the agreement at its sole discretion for an additional three one-year extension terms by mutual written agreement of the parties, pending satisfactory performance under the original contract. The extension periods are as follows.
•Year 5 (FY 2025/26): July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2026
•Year 6 (FY 2026/27): July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027
•Year 7 (FY 2027/28): July 1, 2027 to June 30, 2028
In the first three years of performance, staff have been satisfied with the delivery of services provided by Aztec and is recommending the execution of three additional one-year amendments for annual services covering the period of July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2028. In accordance with the pre-negotiated terms and conditions of the original agreement, annual contract renewals are eligible for a cost adjustment beginning year four based on the California Consumer Price Index (CPI), All Urban Consumers, as published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics for the Los Angeles-Ontario-Riverside Statistical Area (CPI-U); provided however, that those adjustments in rates be based solely on the change in CPI but not to exceed five percent. Amendment No. 3 has been updated to reflect an annual CPI increase.

In order to maintain each facility to City standards, Amendment No. 3 also includes deep cleaning services which would take place annually. Over the last two years, additional services have been requested from Aztec to include tasks beyond the scope of regular maintenance. These tasks include items such as ceiling vent cleaning, restroom floor and wall scrubbing, high dusting, and Item Title: 10.14

CITY OF MENIFEE
SUBJECT: Contract Change Order with Copp Contracting, Inc. for the Menifee Road Resurfacing – Aldergate Drive to McCall
Boulevard Project
MEETING DATE: June 4, 2025
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Diego Guillen, Senior Engineer
REVIEWED BY: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director
APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RECOMMENDED ACTION

1. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute Contract Change Order No. 2 with Copp Contracting, Inc. for construction services for Menifee Road Resurfacing – Aldergate Drive to McCall Boulevard Project, Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Project No. 24-21, in the amount of $281,061.96, increasing the contract value to a total not-to-exceed amount of $1,725,560.26.

DISCUSSION
The Menifee Road Resurfacing – Aldergate Drive to McCall Boulevard Project, CIP Project No. 24-21 (“Project”), consisted of resurfacing the existing pavement from McCall Boulevard to 600 feet north of Aldergate Drive. The Project included the removal and replacement of striping over the entire project area, the addition of dedicated bike lanes where the existing pavement width allowed, and installation of signage.

On August 7, 2024, the City Council awarded a construction services contract (“Contract”) to Copp Contracting, Inc. (“Contractor”) in the amount of $1,430,470.92. Construction work for the Project began in August 2024 and is now substantially completed. Although staff make every effort to carefully study and anticipate the extent of the scope of work required to achieve project goals, unforeseen needs and unknown site conditions discovered during construction activities are often encountered as a project progresses and can result in additional work outside of the original scope and contract amount. Such changes are addressed in the form of a Contract Change Order (CCO). Two change orders were required throughout the duration of the construction phase for Item Title: 10.15

the Project. The first CCO was required to address overages in original bid quantities and was previously approved under City Manager authority.

The proposed CCO No. 2 was a result of an unanticipated utility conflict with Southern California Gas Company (SCGC). Despite staff providing ample and numerous notifications of the Project’s scope during monthly utility coordination meetings to all utility companies, SCGC shut down construction activities on September 27, 2024 stating they had no previous knowledge of the Project. Along Menifee Road, there are two large existing SCGC main transmission lines that require special assessment and approval anytime construction equipment is being used along the roadway. Because as-builts were unavailable for the existing large transmission lines, SCGC required potholing to determine their exact horizontal and vertical location. Identified within the potholing report is existing pavement section information which SCGC utilized to determine whether the proposed Project improvements section would negatively impact the existing transmission lines. Construction activities were placed on hold to allow SCGC to conduct their special assessment. This resulted in timeline delays and additional costs associated with overhead and re-mobilization efforts.

Additional delays to the Project timeline were a result of unexpected lead time on materials. The Project proposed to use a material called Asphalt Rubber Aggregate Membrane (ARAM), which is the latest in pavement management practices due to its durability, longevity, and cost effectiveness. There is currently just one plant that manufactures ARAM, resulting in limited product availability. In anticipation of the limited availability, the ARAM materials were reserved well in advance for this project and prices locked in. However, due to the Project being placed on hold by SCGC staff were unable to retrieve the ARAM materials during the reserved window of availability. The next available window to receive the ARAM materials would have required one to two months of additional lead time which would result in significant delays and time related overhead costs to the Project, in addition to re-mobilization and additional material costs of the ARAM material. To minimize further impacts to the Project’s schedule and budget, staff decided to utilize an Asphalt Concrete leveling course, which is readily available, to replace the ARAM materials and continue the project to stay within schedule. The Asphalt Concrete leveling course material is more expensive than the ARAM, resulting in additional Project costs.

The SCGC required 13 days to assess and evaluate the Project area and provided the City with approval to resume construction activities on October 17, 2024. Included in CCO No. 2 are costs associated with the SCGC time delay, resulting in additional overhead, re-mobilization of equipment, and increased material costs to replace the ARAM. Staff will pursue financial compensation from SCGC, in coordination with City Attorney and the Finance Department, for the costs associated with the delays included in CCO No. 2. The contract activity is summarized in Table 1 on the following page.

CITY OF MENIFEE
SUBJECT: First Reading and Introduction of an Ordinance for the Proposed Formation of Community Facilities District 2025-1, Menifee Vista
MEETING DATE: June 4, 2025
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Lauri Lockwood, Financial Analyst
REVIEWED BY: Travis Hickey, Chief Financial Officer
APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RECOMMENDED ACTION

1. Adopt a resolution establishing Community Facilities District 2025-1, Menifee Vista, of the City of Menifee (“CFD 2025-1” or “CFD”), located north of Rouse Road between Valley Boulevard and Byers Road, and calling an election; and

2. Adopt a resolution determining the necessity to incur bonded indebtedness for CFD 2025-1 and calling an election; and

3. Adopt a resolution certifying election results for CFD 2025-1; and

4. Introduce an ordinance authorizing the levy of special taxes within CFD 2025-1.

DISCUSSION
On February 19, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 25-1537 (the “Resolution of Intention”), declaring its intent to commence the formation of CFD No. 2025-1. The next step in the proceedings is to hold a public hearing relating to the formation of the CFD, to conduct an election in CFD 2025-1 and to declare the results of the election.

The property in the CFD is planned to be developed into 96 homes on approximately 28 acres. The previous owner of the property in the CFD requested that the City form CFD 2025-1 in accordance with the Mello-Roos 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 $11,000,000.

The boundaries of CFD 2025-1 include the area described in Exhibit A of the Resolution of Item Title: 11.1

Intention and the proposed special taxes to be levied within the boundaries of CFD 2025-1 are set forth in the Rate and Method of Apportionment (the “RMA”) as described in Exhibit C to the Resolution of Intention.

The Resolution of Intention called for a public hearing to be held on April 2, 2025, for the City Council to formally consider the approval of the formation of CFD 2025-1 and the approval of the levy of the special taxes within CFD 2025-1. Due to the expected change in ownership of the property in the CFD, the public hearing was continued to the June 4, 2025, City Council meeting.

The property in the CFD has been transferred to Richmond American Homes of Maryland, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Developer”). Notice of the public hearing was published in the Press- Enterprise and mailed to the property owner in accordance with the Mello-Roos 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 $11,000,000. 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 the Developer (the “Funding Agreement”); and (ii) the Joint Community Facilities Agreement with the Developer and Eastern Municipal Water District (“Water District JCFA”). The Funding Agreement sets forth the terms, among others, pursuant to which the CFD will finance improvements to be constructed by the Developer. In accordance with the Mello-Roos Act, the approval and execution of the Water District JCFA allows for the CFD to finance improvements to be owned and operated by Eastern Municipal Water District that 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 owner having one vote for each acre (or portion thereof) that they own within the CFD. The Developer, as the landowner in the CFD, has 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 elections. The City Clerk will announce the elections results and the City Council will be asked to adopt the Resolution Certifying the Election Results. Based upon 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.

FISCAL IMPACT
The CFD will be required to annually levy special taxes on all 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 obligations of the City and will be secured solely by the special taxes levied in the CFD. The Developer has made a deposit to pay for the costs of forming the CFD. The Funding Agreement includes a provision for reimbursement of these costs to the Developer if and when bonds are issued for CFD.

the JCFA to be entered into with the Water District, 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 Exhibit C to Resolution No. 25-1537 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. 2025-1 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 2070-71. 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 2070-71, 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 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. 2025-1 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. 2025-1, increase the levy to the extent necessary and permitted by law and these proceedings upon the remaining property within Community Facilities District No. 2025-1 which is not exempt or delinquent in order to yield the required debt service payments on Item Title: 11.1

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. 2025-1, 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. 2025-1 and will be benefited by the Facilities proposed to be provided within Community Facilities District No. 2025-1.

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. 2025-1 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. 2025-1 as are proposed to be provided by the Facilities to be financed by Community Facilities District No. 2025-1.

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. 2025-1 on the propositions of levying the Special Tax on the property within Community Facilities District No. 2025-1 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.

The language of the propositions to be placed on the ballot is attached hereto as Exhibit B.

Section 12.The date of the election for Community Facilities District No. 2025-1 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 4, 2025, or such later date as is consented to by the City Clerk or Deputy 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 4, 2025, 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 4, Item Title: 11.1

5 Rate and Method of Apportionment Page | 5
The Rate and Method of Apportionment allows each property owner within CFD No. 2025-1 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. 2025-1, and provided further that CFD No. 2025-1 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. 2025-1, unless exempted by law or by the Rate and Method proposed for CFD No. 2025-1, shall be taxed for the purpose of providing necessary facilities to serve the District. The Boundary Map for CFD No. 2025-1 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. 2025-1 for uncollected Special Taxes associated with the levy of such Special Taxes, but the Special Tax shall not be levied after 2070-71 Fiscal Year.

The Prepayment Amount shall be determined as of the proposed prepayment date as follows:

1. Confirm that no Special Tax delinquencies apply to such Assessor’s Parcel.

2. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property, compute the Maximum Special Tax for the Assessor’s Parcel. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Approved Property or Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has been issued, compute the Maximum Special Tax for the Assessor’s Parcel as though it was already designated as Developed Property, based upon the Building Permit which has been issued for the Assessor’s Parcel. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Approved Property or Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has not been issued, or Provisional Undeveloped Property, compute the Maximum Special Tax for the Assessor’s Parcel.

3. Divide the Maximum Special Tax derived pursuant to paragraph 2 by the total amount of Maximum Special Taxes that could be levied assuming build out of all Assessor’s Parcels of Taxable Property based on the applicable Maximum Special Tax for Assessor’s Parcels of Developed Property not including any Assessor’s Parcels for which the Special Tax obligation has been previously prepaid.

4. Multiply the quotient derived pursuant to paragraph 3 by the principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds to determine the amount of Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed with the Prepayment Amount (the “Bond Redemption Amount”).

11. Add the amounts derived pursuant to paragraphs 8 and 9 and subtract the amount derived pursuant to paragraph 10 (the “Defeasance Amount”).

12. Verify the administrative fees and expenses of the CFD, the cost to invest the Prepayment Amount, the cost of redeeming the Outstanding Bonds, and the cost of recording notices to evidence the prepayment of the Special Tax obligation for the Assessor’s Parcel and the redemption of Outstanding Bonds (the “Administrative Fees and Expenses”).

13. The reserve fund credit (the “Reserve Fund Credit”) shall equal the lesser of: (a) the expected reduction in the reserve requirement (as defined in the Indenture), if any, associated with the redemption of Outstanding Bonds as a result of the prepayment, or (b) the amount derived by subtracting the new reserve requirement (as defined in the Indenture) in effect after the redemption of Outstanding Bonds as a result of the prepayment from the balance in the reserve fund on the prepayment date, but in no event shall such amount be less than zero.

14. The Prepayment Amount is equal to the sum of the Bond Redemption Amount, the Redemption Premium, the Future Facilities Amount, the Defeasance Amount and the Administrative Fees and Expenses, less the Reserve Fund Credit.

15. From the Prepayment Amount, the Bond Redemption Amount, the Redemption Premium, and Defeasance Amount shall be deposited into the appropriate fund as established under the Indenture and be used to redeem Outstanding Bonds or make debt service payments. The Future Facilities Amount shall be deposited into the Construction Fund. The Administrative Fees and Expenses shall be retained by the CFD.

The Prepayment Amount may be sufficient to redeem other than a $5,000 increment of Bonds. In such event, the increment above $5,000 or an integral multiple thereof will be retained in the appropriate fund established under the Indenture to be used with the next redemption from other Special Tax prepayments of Outstanding Bonds or to make debt service payments.

As a result of the payment of the current Fiscal Year’s Special Tax levy as determined pursuant to paragraph 9 above, the CFD Administrator shall remove the current Fiscal Year’s Special Tax levy for the Assessor’s Parcel from the County tax roll. With respect to any Assessor’s Parcel for which the Special Tax obligation is prepaid, the City Council shall cause a suitable notice to be recorded in compliance with the Act, to indicate the prepayment of Special Tax obligation and the release of the Special Tax lien for the Assessor’s Parcel, and the obligation to pay the Special Tax for such Assessor’s Parcel shall cease.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Special Tax prepayment shall be allowed unless the amount of Maximum Special Tax that may be levied on all Assessor’s Parcels of Taxable Property after the proposed prepayment will be at least 1.1 times maximum annual debt service on the Bonds that will remain outstanding after the prepayment plus the estimated annual Administrative Expenses.

Tenders of Bonds in prepayment of the Special Tax obligation may be accepted upon the terms and conditions established by the City Council pursuant to the Act. However, the use of Bond tenders shall only be allowed on a case‐by‐case basis as specifically approved by the City Council.

The Special Tax shall be collected in the same manner and at the same time as ordinary ad valorem property taxes, provided, however, that CFD No. 2025‐1 may collect Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to meet its financial obligations, and may covenant to foreclose and may actually foreclose on delinquent Assessor’s Parcels as permitted by the Act.

J. APPEALS OF SPECIAL TAXES
Any taxpayer may file a written appeal of the Special Taxes levied on his/her Assessor’s Parcel(s) with the CFD Administrator, provided that the appellant is current in his/her payments of Special Taxes. During pendency of an appeal, all Special Taxes previously levied must be paid on or before the payment date established when the levy was made. The appeal must specify the reasons why the appellant claims the Special Tax is in error.

The City shall classify as Exempt Property, in the following order of priority, (i) Assessor’s Parcels which are owned by, irrevocably offered for dedication, encumbered by or restricted in use by the State of California, Federal or other local governments, including school districts, (ii) Assessor’s Parcels which are used as places of worship and are exempt from ad valorem property taxes because they are owned by a religious organization, (iii) Assessor’s Parcels which are owned by, irrevocably offered for dedication, encumbered by or restricted in use by a homeowners' association, (iv) Assessor’s Parcels with public or utility easements making impractical their utilization for other than the purposes set forth in the easement, (v) Assessor’s Parcels which are privately owned and are encumbered by or restricted solely for public uses, (vi) Assessor’s Parcels which are classified as Non-Residential Property or (vii) Assessor’s Parcels restricted to other types of public uses determined by the City Council, provided that no such classification would reduce the sum of all Taxable Property to less than 16.84 Acres.

Notwithstanding the above, the City Council shall not classify an Assessor’s Parcel as Exempt Property if such classification would reduce the sum of all Taxable Property to less than 16.84 Acres. Assessor's Parcels which cannot be classified as Exempt Property because such classification would reduce the Acreage of all Taxable Property to less than 16.84 Acres will be classified as Provisional Undeveloped Property, and will be subject to Special Tax pursuant to Step Five in Section E.

G. PREPAYMENT OF SPECIAL TAX
The following additional definitions apply to this Section G:
“CFD Facilities” means $8,000,000 expressed in 2025 dollars, which shall increase by the Construction Inflation Index on July 1, 2026, and on each July 1 thereafter, or such lower amount (i) determined by the City Council as sufficient to provide the facilities under the authorized bonding program for CFD No. 2025-1, or (ii) determined by the City Council concurrently with a covenant that it will not issue any more Bonds to finance additional facilities to be supported by Special Tax levied under this Rate and Method of Apportionment. “Construction Fund” means an account specifically identified in the Indenture or functionally equivalent to hold funds, which are available for expenditure to acquire or construct facilities eligible to be financed by CFD No. 2025-1.
“Construction Inflation Index” means the greater of (i) 2% and (ii) the annual percentage change in the Engineering News-Record Building Cost Index for the city of Los Angeles, measured as of the Calendar Year which ends in the previous Fiscal Year. In the event this index ceases to be published, the Construction Inflation Index shall be another index as determined by the City that is reasonably comparable to the Engineering News-Record Building Cost Index for the City of Los Angeles.
“Future Facilities Costs” means the CFD Facilities minus (i) amounts deposited in the Construction Fund, (ii) amounts deposited in any escrow accounts funded by the Outstanding Bonds and anticipated to fund public facilities costs, and (iii) public facility costs funded by interest earnings on the Construction Fund actually earned prior to the date of prepayment, but in no event shall such amount be less than zero.
“Outstanding Bonds” means all previously issued Bonds issued and secured by the levy of Special Tax which will remain outstanding after the first interest and/or principal payment date following the current Fiscal Year, excluding Bonds to be redeemed at a later date with the proceeds of prior prepayments of Special Tax.

1. Prepayment in Full
The Special Tax obligation may be prepaid and permanently satisfied for (i) Assessor’s Parcels of Developed Property, (ii) Assessor’s Parcels of Approved Property or Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has been issued, (iii) Assessor’s Parcels of Approved Property or Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has not been issued and (iv) Assessor’s Parcels of Provisional Undeveloped Property. The Special Tax obligation applicable to an Assessor’s Parcel may be fully prepaid and the obligation to pay the Special Tax for such Assessor’s Parcel permanently satisfied as described herein; provided that a prepayment may be made only if there are no delinquent Special Taxes with respect to such Assessor’s Parcel at the time of prepayment. An owner of an Assessor’s Parcel intending to prepay the Special Tax obligation for such Assessor’s Parcel shall provide the CFD Administrator with written notice of intent to prepay, and within 5 business days of receipt of such notice, the CFD Administrator shall notify such owner of the amount of the non-refundable deposit determined to cover the cost to be incurred by the CFD in calculating the Prepayment Amount (as defined below) for the Assessor’s Parcel.

Prepayment must be made not less than 60 days prior to the redemption date for any Bonds to be redeemed with the proceeds of such prepaid Special Taxes.

The Prepayment Amount shall be calculated as follows (some capitalized terms are defined below):

Bond Redemption Amount
plus
plus
plus
plus
less
Redemption Premium
Future Facilities Amount
Defeasance Amount
Administrative Fees and Expenses
Reserve Fund Credit
Equals: Prepayment Amount
The Prepayment Amount shall be determined as of the proposed prepayment date as follows:

1. Confirm that no Special Tax delinquencies apply to such Assessor’s Parcel.

2. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property, compute the Maximum Special Tax for the Assessor’s Parcel. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Approved Property or Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has been issued, compute the Maximum Special Tax for the Assessor’s Parcel as though it was already designated as Developed Property, based upon the Building Permit which has been issued for the Assessor’s Parcel.

For an Assessor’s Parcel of Approved Property or Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has not been issued, or Provisional Undeveloped Property, compute the Maximum Special Tax for the Assessor’s Parcel.

3. Divide the Maximum Special Tax derived pursuant to paragraph 2 by the total amount of Maximum Special Taxes that could be levied assuming build out of all Assessor’s Parcels of Taxable Property based on the applicable Maximum Special Tax for Assessor’s Parcels of Developed Property not including any Assessor’s Parcels for which the Special Tax obligation has been previously prepaid.

4. Multiply the quotient derived pursuant to paragraph 3 by the principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds to determine the amount of Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed with the Prepayment Amount (the “Bond Redemption Amount”).

5. Multiply the Bond Redemption Amount by the applicable redemption premium, if any, on the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed (the “Redemption Premium”).

6. Determine the Future Facilities Costs.

7. Multiply the quotient derived pursuant to paragraph 3 by the amount determined pursuant to paragraph 6 to determine the amount of Future Facilities Costs for the Assessor’s Parcel (the “Future Facilities Amount”).

8. Determine the amount needed to pay interest on the Bond Redemption Amount from the first bond interest and/or principal payment date following the current Fiscal Year C-10

until the earliest redemption date for the Outstanding Bonds on which Bonds can be redeemed from Special Tax prepayments.

9. Determine the Special Taxes levied on the Assessor’s Parcel in the current Fiscal Year which have not yet been paid.

10. Determine the amount the CFD Administrator reasonably expects to derive from the investment of the Bond Redemption Amount and the Redemption Premium from the date of prepayment until the redemption date for the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed with the Prepayment Amount.

11. Add the amounts derived pursuant to paragraphs 8 and 9 and subtract the amount derived pursuant to paragraph 10 (the “Defeasance Amount”).

12. Verify the administrative fees and expenses of the CFD, the cost to invest the Prepayment Amount, the cost of redeeming the Outstanding Bonds, and the cost of recording notices to evidence the prepayment of the Special Tax obligation for the Assessor’s Parcel and the redemption of Outstanding Bonds (the “Administrative Fees and Expenses”).

13. The reserve fund credit (the “Reserve Fund Credit”) shall equal the lesser of: (a) the expected reduction in the reserve requirement (as defined in the Indenture), if any, associated with the redemption of Outstanding Bonds as a result of the prepayment, or (b) the amount derived by subtracting the new reserve requirement (as defined in the Indenture) in effect after the redemption of Outstanding Bonds as a result of the prepayment from the balance in the reserve fund on the prepayment date, but in no event shall such amount be less than zero.

14. The Prepayment Amount is equal to the sum of the Bond Redemption Amount, the Redemption Premium, the Future Facilities Amount, the Defeasance Amount and the Administrative Fees and Expenses, less the Reserve Fund Credit.

15. From the Prepayment Amount, the Bond Redemption Amount, the Redemption Premium, and Defeasance Amount shall be deposited into the appropriate fund as established under the Indenture and be used to redeem Outstanding Bonds or make debt service payments. The Future Facilities Amount shall be deposited into the Construction Fund. The Administrative Fees and Expenses shall be retained by the CFD.

The Prepayment Amount may be sufficient to redeem other than a $5,000 increment of Bonds. In such event, the increment above $5,000 or an integral multiple thereof will be retained in the appropriate fund established under the Indenture to be used with the next redemption from other Special Tax prepayments of Outstanding Bonds or to make debt service payments.

As a result of the payment of the current Fiscal Year’s Special Tax levy as determined pursuant to paragraph 9 above, the CFD Administrator shall remove the current Fiscal Year’s Special Tax levy for the Assessor’s Parcel from the County tax roll. With respect to any Assessor’s Parcel for which the Special Tax obligation is prepaid, the City Council shall cause a suitable notice to be recorded in compliance with the Act, to indicate the prepayment of Special Tax obligation and the release of the Special Tax lien for the Assessor’s Parcel, and the obligation to pay the Special Tax for such Assessor’s Parcel shall cease.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Special Tax prepayment shall be allowed unless the amount of Maximum Special Tax that may be levied on all Assessor’s Parcels of Taxable Property after the proposed prepayment will be at least 1.1 times maximum annual debt service on the Bonds that will remain outstanding after the prepayment plus the estimated annual Administrative Expenses.

Tenders of Bonds in prepayment of the Special Tax obligation may be accepted upon the terms and conditions established by the City Council pursuant to the Act. However, the use of Bond tenders shall only be allowed on a case-by-case basis as specifically approved by the City Council.

2. Prepayment in Part
The Special Tax obligation for an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property, Approved Property, Undeveloped Property, or Provisional Undeveloped Property may be partially prepaid. For purposes of determining the Partial Prepayment Amount, the provisions of Section G.1 shall be modified as provided by the following formula:

PP = ((PE – A) x F) + A
These terms have the following meaning:

PP = Partial Prepayment Amount
PE = the Prepayment Amount calculated according to Section G.1 F = the percent by which the owner of the Assessor’s Parcel(s) is partially prepaying the Special Tax obligation
A = the Administrative Fees and Expenses determined pursuant to Section G.1 The owner of an Assessor’s Parcel who desires to partially prepay the Special Tax obligation for the Assessor’s Parcel shall notify the CFD Administrator of (i) such owner’s intent to partially prepay the Special Tax obligation, (ii) the percentage of the Special Tax obligation such owner wishes to prepay, and (iii) the company or agency that will be acting as the escrow agent, if any. Within 5 days of receipt of such notice, the CFD Administrator shall notify such property owner of the amount of the non-refundable deposit determined to cover the cost to be incurred by the CFD in calculating the Partial Prepayment Amount. Within 15 business days of receipt of such non-refundable deposit, the CFD Administrator shall notify such owner of the amount of the Partial Prepayment Amount for the Assessor’s Parcel. A Partial Prepayment Amount must be made not less than 60 days prior to the redemption date for the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed with the proceeds of the Partial Prepayment Amount.

With respect to any Assessor’s Parcel for which the Special Tax obligation is partially prepaid, the CFD Administrator shall (i) distribute the Partial Prepayment Amount as provided in Paragraph 15 of Section G.1, and (ii) indicate in the records of the CFD that there has been a partial prepayment for the Assessor’s Parcel and that a portion of the Special Tax obligation equal to the remaining percentage (1.00 - F) of the applicable Special Tax will continue to be levied on the Assessor’s Parcel pursuant to Section E.

H. TERMINATION OF SPECIAL TAX
For each Fiscal Year that any Bonds are outstanding the Special Tax shall be levied on all Assessor’s Parcels subject to the Special Tax pursuant to Section E. The Special Tax shall cease not later than the 2070-2071 Fiscal Year, however, Special Taxes will cease to be levied C-12

in an earlier Fiscal Year if the CFD Administrator has determined (i) that all the required interest and principal payments on the CFD No. 2025-1 Bonds have been paid; (ii) all authorized facilities of CFD No. 2025-1 have been acquired and all reimbursements to the developer have been paid, (iii) no delinquent Special Taxes remain uncollected and (iv) all other obligations of CFD No. 2025-1 have been satisfied.

I. MANNER OF COLLECTION
The Special Tax shall be collected in the same manner and at the same time as ordinary ad valorem property taxes, provided, however, that CFD No. 2025-1 may collect Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to meet its financial obligations, and may covenant to foreclose and may actually foreclose on delinquent Assessor’s Parcels as permitted by the Act.

J. APPEALS OF SPECIAL TAXES
Any taxpayer may file a written appeal of the Special Taxes levied on his/her Assessor’s Parcel(s) with the CFD Administrator, provided that the appellant is current in his/her payments of Special Taxes. During pendency of an appeal, all Special Taxes previously levied must be paid on or before the payment date established when the levy was made. The appeal must specify the reasons why the appellant claims the Special Tax is in error. The CFD Administrator shall review the appeal, meet with the appellant if the CFD Administrator deems necessary, and advise the appellant of its determination. If the CFD Administrator agrees with the appellant, the CFD Administrator shall grant a credit to eliminate or reduce future Special Taxes on the appellant’s Assessor’s Parcel(s). No refunds of previously paid Special Taxes shall be made unless approved by the CFD Administrator.

The CFD Administrator shall interpret this Rate and Method of Apportionment and make determinations relative to the annual levy and administration of the Special Taxes and any taxpayer who appeals, as herein specified.

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. 2025-1 (MENIFEE VISTA) OF THE CITY OF MENIFEE (the “Community Facilities District” or “CFD”) and RICHMOND AMERICAN HOMES OF MARYLAND, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Developer”), each individually a “Party” and collectively the “Parties.” WHEREAS, Developer 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 and Eastern Municipal Water District (the “Water District”), and incidental expenses in accordance with the Act; 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 “Developer 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 (“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 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

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 to finance the Improvements, including a special tax consultant, bond counsel, and other consultants deemed necessary by the City. The Developer has advanced to the City a sum of money for such costs. From time to time, Developer will make additional advances, within 10 business days following receipt from the City of a request for an additional advance, to cover the costs of the formation proceedings and any change proceedings under the Act requested by the Developer. The City will provide to Developer on request a summary of how the advances have been spent and the unexpended balance remaining.

The amounts advanced by the Developer, other than $5,000 (which is non reimbursable) and, to the extent determined reasonable and appropriate by the City, expenses incurred by the Developer for legal and other consultant costs in connection with the formation proceedings, any change proceedings and the issuance of Bonds, will be reimbursable to the Developer, without interest, from the proceeds of Bonds. In the event that Bonds are not issued to provide a source of reimbursement to Developer, the City shall not have any liability to Developer to reimburse it for any of the amounts previously advanced by Developer and expended by the City.

Prior to the issuance of the Bonds, the City will request a final advance for any unpaid expenses incurred during preparatory technical, financial and legal work; and following payment of such expenses, the City shall promptly release the balance, if any, of the advance to the Developer.

Should the City’s expenses exceed the remaining balance, the City will bill the Developer for the difference, which the Developer agrees to pay within 10 days following receipt of such billing, subject to the conditions of paragraph one of this section.

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 within the CFD 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 CFD for purposes of determining the foregoing ratio will be determined based on the appraised value of the property determined by 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 completed homes (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 Developer 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 CFD which the City has determined, in its sole discretion, 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 CFD (“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 to the City either (i) a renewable irrevocable instrument of credit from a financial institution (rated “A” or better, or otherwise approved by the City) and approved by the City, or (ii) cash in-lieu thereof (a “Security”). The Security shall be in an amount calculated by multiplying the Special Tax Requirement (as defined in the Rate and Method) for the then current and following fiscal year, by the percentage of the Maximum Special Taxes for the current fiscal year allocable to the Developer Property owned by the Account Party (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. The total amount to be drawn under the Security shall not exceed an amount equal to the Special Taxes owed by the Account Party 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.

shall be held as security, and if Special Taxes owed by the Account Party 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, 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 determined by the method of calculation set forth in Section 2.2(a) hereof. The Security shall be terminated upon the earlier of (i) when the Sizing Property owned by, or under option to, the Account Party is responsible for less than 20% of the Maximum Special Taxes applicable to all of the Sizing Property or (ii) when the Account Party has paid (or cause to be paid) all Special Taxes owed by the Account Party 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 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 any Sizing Property is sold or transferred by an Account Party with the result that the Sizing Property owned by the transferee together with 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 Sizing Property owned by such Transferee.

and sale 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.

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 Special Tax levy 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 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 and Rule 10b-5 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 Developer to assist in the marketing of the Bonds.

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 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. At the request of the Developer, the City, in consultation with the underwriter of the Bonds, may consider providing for surety or bond insurance in lieu of all or a portion of the reserve fund in order to generate additional proceeds to fund Improvements. The Community Facilities District shall maintain records relating to the disbursements of proceeds of the sale of the 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 Item Title: 11.1

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 priorities:
(a) An amount 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 collected by the CFD remaining after the payment of administrative expenses of the CFD and the reimbursement of the Developer for CFD formation costs and Improvements pursuant to Section 3 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) An amount equal to 20% of the amount funded in (a) shall be deposited in the City Fee Facility Improvements Account; (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 costs of the City Improvements shall be deposited, or later transferred, to the City Improvements Account; and
(d) 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 Improvements 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 Improvements 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 Bonds, the City Council of the City, acting as the legislative body of the Community Facilities District, may levy Special Taxes on all parcels classified as Developed Property pursuant to the Rate and Method. 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, the City shall annually levy the Special Tax as provided for in documents pursuant to which the Bonds were issued. Following the issuance of the Item Title: 11.1

last series of Bonds, the City shall have no obligation to levy Special Taxes 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 advising of the special tax obligation applicable to the Developer Property in the form required by Section 53341.5 of the Government Code.

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 for which the Acquisition Price is paid. 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 for which the Acquisition Price is paid.

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 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.

7.1 City Requirements. In order that the City Improvements for which the Acquisition Price is paid may be properly and readily acquired by the City, the Developer shall comply with all of the requirements in this Section 7.1 with respect to any such City Improvements to be acquired with funds in the City Improvements Account and the Developer shall provide such proof to the City as the City may reasonably require and at such intervals and in such form as the City may reasonably require, that the requirements under this Section 7.1 have been satisfied as to all such City Improvements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, City Improvements shall only be eligible for financing by the CFD if the City determines that the conditions under Section 53313.5 have been satisfied with respect to such City Improvements.
(a) The Developer shall prepare a bid package for review, comment and approval by the City Manager or his or her designee (the “City Representative”) for any City Improvements bid after the effective date of this Agreement.

bids were solicited, a listing of all responsive bids and their amounts, and the name or names of the contractor or contractors 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 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. The City’s insurance requirements are set out in Section 21 herein. (g) The Developer and all such contractors shall comply with such other requirements relating to the construction of the City Improvements which the City may impose by written notification delivered to the Developer and each such contractor at the time either prior to the receipt of bids by the Developer for the construction of such City Improvements or, to the extent required as a result of changes in applicable laws, during the progress of construction thereof; provided that such other requirements shall only be imposed to the extent the City reasonably determines they are required in order to comply with applicable law. 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 ten (10) calendar days of receipt of all necessary information. The City’s comments to a Significant Change Order shall not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld. After the effective date of this Agreement, field verification that the work was performed in accordance with a Change Order or a Significant Change Order shall be required, which verification shall be demonstrated by the signature of a City Representative on the Change Order or Significant Change Order.

associated with a Change Order or a Significant Change Order that has not been approved or if the work has not been verified, as applicable, by the City Representative in accordance with this Section 7(h).

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.

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 for which the Acquisition Price is paid.

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 Manager or his or her designee, as of the date of acquisition.

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 (the “Actual Costs”) shall include:
(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 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.

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 Item Title: 11.1

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.

For purposes of determining the Acquisition Price to be paid by the Community Facilities District for the acquisition of the City Improvements by the City (other than City Improvements described in the first paragraph of this Section), the value of such City Improvements shall include the construction costs specified in the City-approved contracts (subject to the next sentence), Change Orders, and City-approved Significant Change Orders conforming to Section 6, as hereinbefore specified. City approval is a condition prior to initiation of contract work for City Improvements bid after the effective date of this Agreement. However, if the City reasonably determines that the additional Actual Costs are excessive and that the value of the City Improvements is less than the total amount of such Actual Costs and such construction costs, the price to be paid for the acquisition of the City Improvements shall be the value thereof as determined by the Engineer, subject, however, to the Developer’s right to appeal to the City Council.

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.

The payment of the Acquisition Price of any City Improvement that is included in the City’s fee program shall not preclude the grant of City fee credits to the Developer for such City Improvements.

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 complete the design and construction and offer to the City ownership of such portions of the City Improvements as are required to be constructed by the Developer as a condition to recordation of subdivision maps for the Developer Property (but only at such times as required by such condition), 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 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 Developer Property 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 Developer 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.

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 Item Title: 11.1

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, 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 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 prior to the issuance of Bonds.

Bond proceeds 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. Any Deposits that have not been returned to the Developer at the time it is determined that there will be no further 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 Improvements 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 Improvements 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.

The Bonds shall be issued only if, in its sole discretion, the City Council determines that all requirements of State and federal law and all City policies have been satisfied or have been waived by the City. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon EMWD or any owner of the Property, including Property Owner, a right to compel the issuance of the Bonds or the disbursement of Bond Proceeds to fund EMWD Facilities and/or Acquisition Facilities except in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

If and when the CFD determines to issue Bonds, the CFD shall take such actions necessary in its reasonable discretion to ensure the total effective tax rate within the CFD does not exceed two percent (2%) at the time of Bond sale. The total effective tax rate shall be based on a method of determination of property values reasonably acceptable to the City. CFD shall not include EMWD’s name on property owners’ special tax bills within the CFD.

By entering into this Agreement and requisitioning Bond Proceeds as described herein, EMWD is not passing upon, determining or assuming the tax-exempt status of the Bonds for federal or California state income tax purposes.

5. Disbursements for EMWD Facilities.
(a) Upon the funding of the Other Facilities Account of the Improvement Fund with funds reserved to fund EMWD Facilities, the Property Owner shall notify EMWD of the amount of Bond Proceeds reserved to fund EMWD Facilities and the Property Owner and EMWD may execute and submit a Disbursement Request for payment to the City or the CFD requesting disbursement of an amount equal to all or a portion of Advances from the Other Facilities Account of the Improvement Fund to the extent that Bond Proceeds are available in the Other Facilities Account of the Improvement Fund for such purpose. Upon EMWD’s receipt of funds pursuant to such Disbursement Request, the Property Owner shall receive reimbursement of the Advances from EMWD. To facilitate EMWD’s bookkeeping, EMWD may direct in a Disbursement Request, that all or a portion of a payment be made directly from the Other Facilities Account to the Property Owner as reimbursement for Advances made by the Property Owner. In the event of a reimbursement to the Property Owner pursuant to the preceding sentence, EMWD shall account for an equivalent amount of Advances previously received from the Property Owner in accordance with Section 5(c) below.

To the extent that EMWD expends all or a portion of an Advance pending the deposit of Bond Proceeds in the Other Facilities Account of the Improvement Fund, for purposes of Treasury Regulations regarding investment and expenditure of Bond Proceeds and State law provisions regarding financing of public capital facilities, the Advance shall be a considered an interest free loan by the Property Owner, which EMWD only agrees to repay to the extent of the deposit, if any, of Bond Proceeds in the Other Facilities Account of the Improvement Fund and EMWD’s written direction as described below to pay all or a portion of such deposit to the Property Owner as repayment of an Advance.
(b) From time to time following the funding of the Other Facilities Account of the Improvement Fund, the Property Owner may notify EMWD in writing and the Property Owner and EMWD may jointly request a disbursement from the Other Facilities Account of the Improvement Fund to fund EMWD Facilities by executing and submitting a Disbursement Request. Upon receipt of such Disbursement Request completed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the CFD shall wire transfer or otherwise pay to EMWD (or upon EMWD’s written direction pay to the Property Owner or an EMWD contractor) such requested funds to the extent that Bond Proceeds are available Item Title: 11.1

in the Other Facilities Account of the Improvement Fund for such purpose. Upon such notice and EMWD’s receipt of such disbursement (or upon payment to the Property Owner or an EMWD contractor in accordance with directions from EMWD relating to EMWD Facilities), the Property Owner 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 Property Owner) 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. As a condition to receiving any Bond Proceeds, EMWD agrees that it shall provide to the CFD, a certificate to the effect that EMWD confirms the representations contained in Section 5 hereof, EMWD agrees to comply with the provisions of the tax certificate delivered by the CFD in connection with the Bonds, and such other matters as the CFD may reasonably request upon which the CFD and its bond counsel may rely in connection with the issuance of such Bonds and their conclusion that interest on such Bonds is not included in gross income for federal income tax purposes. (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 Property Owner 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 Property Owner 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”). At the time of formation of the CFD, the City and the CFD are in conformance with Section 3.1 of the Debt Policy and it is expected that the City and CFD will remain in conformance with Section 3.1 at the time of any Bond sale. 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. Accordingly, the City Council shall have ultimate responsibility for making all decisions with respect to the issuance of any CFD Bonds and the levy of CFD Special Taxes.

Field Engineer shall promptly furnish to EMWD 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. EMWD shall have the right, but not the obligation, to review, evaluate and analyze whether such results comply with applicable specifications.

A full-time soil testing firm, approved by EMWD, shall be employed by the Property Owner to conduct soil compaction testing and certification. The Property Owner shall promptly furnish results of all such compaction testing to EMWD 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 Property Owner 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 acceptance of the Acquisition Facility.

The costs of all surveying, testing and reports associated with the Acquisition Facility furnished and constructed by the Property Owner’s contractor(s) shall be included in the acquisition price.

EMWD 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 with respect to the Acquisition Facility. Any such work shall be paid for and conducted by the Property Owner and included in the acquisition price of the Acquisition Facility.

(vii) The Property Owner and all such contractors shall comply with such other requirements relating to the construction of the Acquisition Facility which EMWD may impose by written notification delivered to the Property Owner and each such contractor at the time either prior to the receipt of bids by the Property Owner for the construction of such Acquisition Facility or, to the extent required as a result of changes in applicable laws, during the progress of construction thereof.

In accordance with Section 7(f), the Property Owner 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.
(viii) A “Change Order” is an order from the Property Owner to a contractor authorizing a change in the work to be performed. The Property Owner shall receive comments from the EMWD Representative prior to the Property Owner’s approval of any Change Order. The EMWD Representative shall comment on or deny the Change Order request within five (5) business days of receipt of all necessary information. EMWD’s comments to a Change Order shall not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld. The Property Owner shall not be entitled to include in the acquisition price costs associated with a Change Order that have not been approved by the EMWD Representative. (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 Property Owner’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 Property Owner 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 Property Owner in writing that such Acquisition Facility has been satisfactorily completed. Upon receiving such notification, the Property Owner 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 Property Owner 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 Property Owner 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:

(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 Property Owner 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 (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 Property Owner 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 Property Owner or its designee within thirty (30) days after the Property Owner’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 Property Owner’s right to appeal to EMWD’s Board of Directors.

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 Property Owner. In such event, the Property Owner shall complete the design and construction and offer to EMWD property ownership of such portions of the Acquisition Facility as are required to be constructed by the Property Owner 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 Property Owner.
(g) Easements and/or Fee Title Property Ownership Deeds. The Property Owner 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 Property Owner 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 Property Owner to EMWD, as provided in Section 7(f) hereof, the Property Owner 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 Property Owner pertaining to the costs and expenses incurred by the Property Owner for the design and construction of the Acquisition Facility during normal business hours by making arrangements with the Property Owner. The Property Owner 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.

which has been or will be dedicated to EMWD, each Acquisition Facility shall be and remain the property of the Property Owner 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 Property Owner 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 Property Owner. (m) Independent Contractor. In performing this Agreement with respect to the Acquisition Facilities, the Property Owner 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 Property Owner. 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 Property Owner 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 Property Owner’s contractor allow any subcontractor to commence work on its subcontract until all insurance required of the subcontractor has been obtained.

The Property Owner shall, during the life of this Agreement, notify EMWD 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.

Both the Property Owner and its contractor shall conform in every respect to the requirements set forth in the Standard Water and/or Sewer Facilities and Service Agreement, by and between EMWD and the Property Owner.

SUBJECT: First Reading and Ordinance Introduction for Annexation No. 26, Menifee Vista, into Community Facilities District 2017-1, Maintenance Services
MEETING DATE: June 4, 2025
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Kristen Jensen, Financial Analyst
REVIEWED BY: Nick Fidler, Public Works Director
APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RECOMMENDED ACTION

1. Adopt a resolution calling an election to annex territory, including Assessor’s Parcel No. 330- 230-023, associated with Tentative Tract Map 38128, Menifee Vista, located north of Rouse Road between Valley Boulevard and Byers Road, into City of Menifee Community Facilities District (CFD) No. 2017-1 (Maintenance Services) and to levy a special tax on that land; and

2. Hold a special landowner election and canvass the election; and

3. Adopt a resolution declaring results of special landowner election; and

4. Introduce an ordinance, amending the Ordinance No. 2017-231 and levying and apportioning the special tax in CFD 2017-1.

DISCUSSION
On February 19, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 25-1541, declaring its intent to annex territory to CFD No. 2017-1 and commence the annexation proceedings for the territory to be annexed, also known as Annexation No. 26. A public hearing date was initially set for April 2, 2025, to conduct an election for the landowners and to declare the results of that election. Due to an expected change in ownership of the property in the CFD, the public hearing was ultimately continued to the June 4, 2025, City Council meeting. The property in the CFD has now been transferred to Richmond American Homes of Maryland, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Owner”).

Notice of the public hearing was published in the Press Enterprise and mailed to the property owner in accordance with the Mello-Roos Act.
