SUBJECT: Proposed Parity Bond Issuance for Community Facilities District No. 2023-2 Improvement Area 1
MEETING DATE: March 16, 2026
TO: Finance Committee
PREPARED BY: Lauri Lockwood, Financial Analyst
REVIEWED BY: Travis Hickey, Chief Financial Officer
APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RECOMMENDED ACTION

1. Review the proposed parity bond issuance request for Community Facilities District (“CFD”) No. 2023-2 Improvement Area 1, Cimarron Ridge, by Pulte Home Co., LLC, to finance the costs of certain public improvements in connection with the development of 424 homes in a community located south of Rouse Road and west of Byers Road within the City of Menifee (the “City”); and

2. Recommend the Finance Department proceed with the preparation of the Official Statement and other legal documents related to the transaction for presentation to the City Council.

DISCUSSION
Pulte Home Co., LLC, (the “Developer”) owns a residential tract approved for 756 homes within the City. The development is divided into two Improvement Areas, known as Improvement Area 1 (“IA1”), with 424 homes, and Improvement Area 2 (“IA2”), with 332 homes.

This development is unique in that Invitation Homes, a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”), owns 127 of the 424 homes in IA1. The REIT intends to maintain ownership and rent out the homes. Spicer Consulting Group, the city’s tax consultant, conducted an analysis and determined those homes are responsible for less than 20% of the annual tax levy.

In May 2025, the first series of bonds was issued in connection with the initial 288 homes in IA1.

Earlier this month, the Developer requested that the City proceed with issuing parity bonds for the remaining homes in IA1 of Cimarron Ridge (the “Development”) to finance eligible public facilities.

As of early February, building permits have been issued for 412 homes. Of these, 407 homes have closed escrow, and two homes were sold and in escrow. The proposed parity bond issuance for CFD No. 2024-1 is based on all 424 homes in IA1. According to Spicer Consulting Group, approximately $2.2 million in bonds could be issued.

A preliminary bond analysis prepared by Spicer Consulting reviewed valuation, delinquency history and effective tax rate to assess the viability of the issuance. The Development demonstrates a strong value-to-lien ratio of 18.16:1 -- which is substantially higher than the City’s policy threshold of 4:1 -- and an estimated average tax rate of 1.87%, which is less than the City’s 2% limit. As of March 11, 2026, there was a delinquency rate of 0.46% for the development, which is below the 5% limit established in bond covenants.

Based on current interest rates, the parity bond issuance is expected to finance approximately $1.7 million in eligible City facilities and fees. This will be the final bond issuance for IA1. The intention is to engage Ramirez & Co., who was the underwriter for the first issuance, for this parity issuance.

Public Hearing Report
The Rate and Method of Apportionment allows each property owner within CFD No. 2023-2 Improvement Area 1 and Improvement Area 2 are to estimate the annual Special Tax amount that would be required for payment. The Rate and Method of Apportionment of the Special Taxes established pursuant to these proceedings, is attached hereto as Appendix A and Appendix B (the “Rate and Methods”). The Special Tax will be collected in the same manner and at the same time as ordinary ad valorem property taxes and shall be subject to the same penalties, the same procedure, sale and lien priority in the case of delinquency; provided, however, that the CFD Administrator may directly bill the Special Taxes, may collect Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to meet the financial obligations of CFD No. 2023-2, and provided further that CFD No. 2023-2 may covenant to foreclose and may actually foreclose on parcels having delinquent Special Taxes as permitted by the Act.

All of the property located within CFD No. 2023-2, unless exempted by law or by the Rate and Methods proposed for CFD No. 2023-2, shall be taxed for the purpose of providing necessary facilities to serve the District. The Boundary Map for CFD No. 2023-2 is attached hereto as Appendix C. 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 co st 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 Articl e 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 Methods (“Prepayment of Special Tax”).

For each year that any Bonds are outstanding the Special Tax shall be levied on all parcels subject to the Special Tax. If any delinquent Special Taxes remain uncollected prior to or after all Bonds are retired, the Special Tax may be levied to the extent necessary to reimburse CFD No. 2023-2 for uncollected Special Taxes associated with the levy of such Special Taxes, but the Special Tax shall not be levied after 2069-70 Fiscal Year.

E. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF THE SPECIAL TAX

Commencing Fiscal Year 2023‐2024 and for each subsequent Fiscal Year, the City Council shall levy Special Taxes on all Taxable Property in accordance with the following steps:

Step One: The Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property at
up to 100% of the applicable Assigned Special Tax rate to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement.

Step Two: If additional moneys are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement after the first step has been completed, the Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each Assessor’s Parcel of Approved Property
at up to 100% of the Maximum Special Tax applicable to each such Assessor’s Parcel as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement.

Step Three: If additional moneys are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement after the first two steps have been completed, the Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each Assessor’s Parcel of Undeveloped Property up to 100% of the Maximum Special Tax applicable to each such Assessor’s Parcel as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement.

Step Four: If additional moneys are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement after the first three steps have been completed, then the Special Tax levy on each Assessor's Parcel of Developed Property for which the Maximum Special Tax is the Backup Special Tax shall be increased Proportionately from the Assigned Special Tax up to 100% of the Backup Special Tax as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement.

The Maximum 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) Approved Property or Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has not been issued and (iv) Assessor’s Parcels of Public Property or Provisional Undeveloped Property that are not Exempt Property pursuant to Section F. The Maximum 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 Maximum 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.

Bond Redemption Amount
plus Redemption Premium
plus Future Facilities Amount
plus Defeasance Amount
plus Administrative Fees and Expenses
less 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 Item: 6.1
Item Page Number: 34
Menifee Finance Committee March 16, 2026 Page 40 of 137

City of Menifee
Community Facilities District No. 2023‐2 (Cimarron Ridge) Page 12

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, Public Property, 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 Special Taxes that could be levied at the Maximum Special Tax at 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 until the earliest redemption date for the Outstanding Bonds on which Outstanding 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, including the cost of computation of the Prepayment Amount, 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 Maximum Special Tax obligation for the Assessor’s Parcel and the redemption of Outstanding Bonds (the “Administrative Fees and Expenses”).

City of Menifee
Community Facilities District No. 2023‐2 (Cimarron Ridge) Page 13

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 CFD No. 2023‐2 IA 1.

The Prepayment Amount may be sufficient to redeem other than a $5,000 increment of Outstanding 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 Maximum 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 Maximum 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 each Fiscal Year on all Assessor’s Parcels of Taxable Property after the proposed prepayment will be at least 1.1 times annual debt service for such Fiscal Year on the Outstanding Bonds that will remain outstanding after the prepayment plus the estimated annual Administrative Expenses.

Tenders of Outstanding Bonds in prepayment of the
Maximum 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 Maximum
Special Tax obligation for an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property, Approved Property or 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 Item: 6.1
Item Page Number: 36
Menifee Finance Committee March 16, 2026 Page 42 of 137

City of Menifee
Community Facilities District No. 2023‐2 (Cimarron Ridge) Page 14

F = the percent by which the owner of the Assessor’s Parcel(s) is partially prepaying the Maximum 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 Maximum Special Tax obligation for the Assessor’s Parcel shall notify the CFD Administrator of (i) such owner’s intent to partially prepay the Maximum Special Tax obligation, (ii) the percentage of the Maximum 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 amount of a partial prepayment. 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 Maximum 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 Maximum Special Tax obligation equal to the remaining percentage (1.00 ‐ F) of the Maximum Special Tax obligation 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 CFD No. 2023‐2 IA 1 Bonds are outstanding the Special Tax shall be levied on all Assessor’s Parcels subject to the Special Tax. The Special Tax shall cease not later than the 2069‐2070 Fiscal Year, however, Special Tax will cease to be levied in an earlier Fiscal Year if the CFD Administrator has determined (i) that all the required interest and principal payments on the CFD No. 2023‐2 IA 1 Bonds have been paid; (ii) all authorized facilities of CFD No. 2023‐2 IA 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. 2023‐2 IA 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. 2023‐2 IA 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 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 Item: 6.1
