For each Fiscal Year, commencing Fiscal Year 2022 -23, the CFD Administrator shall levy the Special Tax A on all Taxable Property in accordance with the following steps:
Step 1 : The Special Tax B shall be levied Proportionately on each Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property up to 100% of the applicable Maximum Special Tax B.
Step 2 : If additional monies are neede d to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Services after Step 1 has been completed, the Special Tax B shall be levied

In the event Building Permits have been issued prior to May 1st of the previous Fiscal Year for one or more Residential Units on a single Assessor’s Parcel, causing such Assessor’s Parcels to be classified as Developed Property, and the County has not yet assigned final Assessor’s Parcel Number(s) to such Residential Unit(s) in accordance with the Final Map applicable to such Assessor’s Parcel, the amount of the Special Tax B levy on such As sessor’s Parcel shall be determined as follows: (1) the CFD Administrator shall first determine an amount of the Maximum Special Tax B for such Assessor’s Parcel, based on the classification of such Assessor’s Parcel as Approved Property or Undeveloped Pro perty; (2) the CFD Administrator shall then determine the amount of the Special Tax B levy for the Residential Units on such Assessor’s Parcel for which Building Permits have been issued shall be determined based on the Developed Property Assigned Special Tax B rates, and such amount shall be levied as Developed Property in accordance with Step 1 above; and (3) the amount of the Special Tax B on the Taxable Property in such Assessor’s Parcel not subject to the Special Tax B levy in clause (2) shall be equal to: (A) the percentage of the Maximum Special Tax B rate levied on all other Approved Property or Undeveloped Property pursuant to Step 2 or 3 above, as applicable, multiplied by the total of the amount determined in clause (1), less (B) the amount determined in clause (2) of this paragraph.
E. COLLECTION OF SPECIAL TAXES
Collection of the Special Taxes shall be made by the County in the same manner as ordinary ad valorem property taxes are collected and the Special Taxes shall be subject to the same penalties and the same lien priority in the case of delinquency as ad valorem taxes; provided, however, that the Council may provide for (i) other means of collecting the Special Taxes, including direct billings thereof to the property owners; and (ii) jud icial foreclosure of delinquent Special Taxes.

The Special Tax A Obligation applicable t o an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property, Approved Property, or Undeveloped Property that has been included in a Final Map may be prepaid and the obligation to pay the Special Tax A for such Assessor’s Parcel permanently satisfied as described herein, provided that a prepayment may be made with respect to a particular Assessor’s Parcel 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 eligible to prepay the Sp ecial Tax A Obligation shall provide the CFD Administrator with written notice of intent to prepay and designate or identify the company or agency that will be acting as the escrow agent, if any. The CFD Administrator shall provide the owner with a statement of the Prepayment Amount for such Assessor’s Parcel within thirty (30) days of the request and may charge a reasonable fee for providing this service. Prepayment must be made at least 60 days prior to any redemption date for Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed with the proceeds of such prepaid Special Taxes, unless a shorter period is acceptable to the Trustee and the City.
01337.0021/775248.1
34 The Prepayment Amount shall be calculated for each applicable Assessor’s Parcel or group of Assessor’s Parcels as follows (capitalized terms are defined below):
Bond Redemption Amount
plus Redemption Premium
plus Future Facilities Amount
plus Defeasance Amount
plus Administrative Fees and Expenses
less Reserve Fund Credit
less Capitalized Interest 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 Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property, compute the Maximum S pecial Tax A for the Assessor’s Parcel as though all Assessor’s Parcels of Taxable Property within CFD No. 2022-1 IA 1 have been built out. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Approved Property or Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has been issued, compute the Maximum Special Tax A 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 Undevelo ped Property for which a Building Permit has not been issued, compute the Maximum Special Tax A for the Assessor’s Parcel.
3. Divide the Maximum Special Tax A derived pursuant to paragraph 2 by the estimated total amount of Special Tax A that could be lev ied at build out of all Assessor’s Parcels of Taxable Property based on the applicable Maximum Special Tax A for all such Assessor’s Parcels of Taxable Property not including any Parcels for which the Special Tax A 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 Redemptio n 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 portion of the Future Facilities Costs applicable to 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 Bonds can be redeemed from Special Tax A prepayments.
01337.0021/775248.1
35 9. Determine the Special Tax A amount levied on the Assessor’s Parcel in t he 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 d ate 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 associated with the prepayment, including 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 A Obligation for the Assessor’s Parce l 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 th e prepayment from the balance in the reserve fund on the prepayment date, but in no event shall such amount be less than zero.
14. If any capitalized interest for the Outstanding Bonds will not have been expended at the time of the first interest and/or pr incipal payment following the current Fiscal Year, a capitalized interest credit shall be calculated by multiplying the quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 3 by the expected balance in the capitalized interest fund after such first interest and/or principal payment (the “Capitalized Interest Credit”).
15. The amount to prepay the Special Tax A Obligation 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 and the Capitalized Interest Credit.
16. 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. 2022-1 IA 1.
The Prepayment Amount may be sufficient to redeem an amount other than a $5,000 increment of Outstanding Bonds. In such cases, the increment above $5,000 or integral multiple thereof will be retained in the appropriate fund established under the Indenture to redeem Outstanding Bonds to be used with the next prepayment of Outstanding Bonds.
The CFD Administrator will confirm that all previously levied Special Taxes have been paid in full. With respect to any Assessor’s Parcel for which the Special Tax A Obligation is prep aid
01337.0021/775248.1
36 in full, once the CFD Administrator has confirmed that all previously levied Special Taxes have been paid, the Council shall cause a suitable notice to be recorded in compliance with the Act, to indicate the prepayment of the Special Tax A and the rele ase of the Special Tax A lien on such Assessor’s Parcel, and the obligation of the owner of such Assessor’s Parcel to pay the Special Tax A shall cease.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Special Tax A prepayment shall be allowed unless the aggregate amount of Maximum Special Tax A less Administrative Expenses that may be levied on Taxable Property, respectively, after the proposed prepayment is at least 1.1 times the Debt Service on all Outstanding Bonds in each Fiscal Year.
2. Partial Prepayment
The Special Tax on an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property, Approved Property, or Undeveloped Property may be partially prepaid. The amount of the prepayment shall be calculated as in SectionF.1; except that a “Partial Prepayment Amount” shall be calculated according to the following formula:
𝐏𝐏 = (𝐏𝐄 − 𝐀) × 𝐅 + 𝐀
The terms above have the following meanings:
PP = The Partial Prepayment Amount
PE = The Prepayment Amount calculated according to Section F.1 F = The percentage of the Special Tax A Obligation that the owner of the Assessor’s Parcel(s) is partially prepaying
A = The Prepayment Administrative Fees and Expenses from Section F.1 The owner of any Assessor’s Parcel who desires such partial prepayment shall notify the CFD Administrator of (i) such owner’s intent to partially prepay the Special Tax A Obligation, (ii) the percentage by which the Special Tax A Obligation shall be prepaid, and (iii) the company or agency that will be acting as the escrow agent, if any. The CFD Administrator shall pro vide the owner with a statement of the amount required for the partial prepayment of the Special Tax A Obligation for an Assessor’s Parcel within sixty (60) days of the request and may charge a reasonable fee for providing this service.
With respect to any Assessor’s Parcel that is partially prepaid, the City shall (i) distribute the funds remitted to it according to SectionF.1, and (ii) indicate in the records of CFD No. 2022 - 1 IA1 that there has been a partial prepayment of the Special Tax A Obligation an d that a portion of the Special Tax with respect to such Assessor’s Parcel, equal to the outstanding percentage (1.00 - F) of the Maximum Special Tax A, shall continue to be levied on such Assessor’s Parcel.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no partial prepay ment shall be allowed unless the aggregate amount of Maximum Special Tax A less Administrative Expenses that may be levied on Taxable Property, respectively, after the proposed partial prepayment is at least

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 associated with the prepayment, includin g 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 A 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.

The Special Tax A Obligation applicable to an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property, Approved Property, or Undeveloped Property that has been included in a Final Map may b e prepaid and the obligation to pay the Special Tax A for such Assessor’s Parcel permanently satisfied as described herein, provided that a prepayment may be made with respect to a particular Assessor’s Parcel 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 eligible to prepay the Special Tax A Obligation shall provide the CFD Administrator with written notice of intent to prepay and designate or identify the com pany or agency that will be acting as the escrow agent, if any. The CFD Administrator shall provide the owner with a statement of the Prepayment Amount for such Assessor’s Parcel within thirty (30) days of the request and may charge a reasonable fee for pr oviding this service. Prepayment must
01337.0021/775248.1

Bond Redemption Amount
plus Redemption Premium
plus Future Facilities Amount
plus Defeasance Amount
plus Administrative Fees and Expenses
less Reserve Fund Credit
less Capitalized Interest 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 Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property, compute the Maximum Special Tax A for the Assessor’s Parcel as though all Assessor’s Parcels of Taxable Property within CFD No. 2022-1 IA 3 have been built out. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Approved Property or Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has been issued, compute the Maximum Special Tax A for the Assessor’s Parcel as though it was already designated as Developed Property, based upon the Buildi ng 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, compute the Maximum Special Tax A for the Assessor’s Parcel.
3. Divide the Ma ximum Special Tax A derived pursuant to paragraph 2 by the estimated total amount of Special Tax A that could be levied at build out of all Assessor’s Parcels of Taxable Property based on the applicable Maximum Special Tax A for all such Assessor’s Parcels of Taxable Property not including any Parcels for which the Special Tax A 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 Outsta nding 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 portion of the Future Facilities Costs applicable to the Assessor’s Parcel (the “Future Facilities Amount”).
01337.0021/775248.1
81 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 Bonds can be redeemed from Special Tax A prepayments.
9. Determine the Special Tax A amount 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 sub tract the amount derived pursuant to paragraph 10 (the “Defeasance Amount”).
12. Verify the administrative fees and expenses associated with the prepayment, including 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 A 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 res erve 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. If any capitalized interest for the Outstanding Bonds will not have been expended at the time of the first interest and/or principal payment following the current Fiscal Year, a capitalized interest credit shall be calculated by multiplying the quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 3 by the expected balance in the capitalized interest fund after such first interest and/or principal payment (the “Capitalized Interest Credit”).
15. The amount to prepay the Special Tax A Obligation 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 and the Capitalized Interest Credit.
16. From the Prepayment Amount, the Bond Redemption Am ount, 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. 2022-1 IA 3.
The Prepayment Amount may be sufficient to redeem an amount other than a $5,000 increment of Outstanding Bonds. In such cases, the increment above $5,000 or integral
01337.0021/775248.1
82 multiple thereof will be retained in the appropriate fund established under the Indenture to redeem Outstanding Bonds to be used with the next prepayment of Outstanding Bonds.
The CFD Administrator will confirm that all previously levied Special Taxes have been paid in full. With respect to any Assessor’s Parcel for which the Special Tax A Obligation is prepaid in full, once the CFD Administrator has confirmed that all previously levied Special Taxes have been paid, the Council shall cause a sui table notice to be recorded in compliance with the Act, to indicate the prepayment of the Special Tax A and the release of the Special Tax A lien on such Assessor’s Parcel, and the obligation of the owner of such Assessor’s Parcel to pay the Special Tax A shall cease.

Prior to the issua nce of the first series of Bonds for CFD No. 2022 -1 IA 3, the following steps shall be taken for each Land Use Class of for-sale Residential Property in CFD No. 2022-1 IA 3 for evaluating the Special Tax A:
1. At least 30 days prior to the issuance of the fi rst series of Bonds for CFD No. 2022-1 IA 3, a Price Point Study shall be completed and delivered to the CFD Administrator.
2. The CFD Administrator shall determine the Total Tax Burden and Total Effective Tax Rate for each Plan Type in CFD No. 2022-1 IA 3.
3. Separately, for each Land Use Class of for -sale Residential Property in CFD No. 2022-1 IA 3, the CFD Administrator shall determine whether or not the Total Effective Tax Rate for all Plan Types in a Land Use Class is less than or equal to the Total Effect ive Tax Rate Limit.
a. If the Total Effective Tax Rate for all Plan Types in a Land Use Class is less than or equal to the Total Effective Tax Rate Limit, then there shall be no change in Special Tax A rate for such Land Use Class in CFD No. 2022-1 IA 3. b. If the Total Effective Tax Rate for any Plan Type in a Land Use Class is greater than the Total Effective Tax Rate Limit, the CFD Administrator shall calculate a revised Assigned Special Tax A rate that does not cause the Total Effective Tax Rate for any Pla n Type in such Land Use Class to exceed the Total Effective Tax Rate Limit and assign the revised Assigned Special Tax A rate to the Land Use Class.
4. If the Assigned Special Tax A for any Land Use Class is revised pursuant to Step 3b above, the CFD Adminis trator shall calculate a revised Backup Special Tax A rate for each applicable Final Map within CFD No. 2022 -1 IA 3. The revised Backup Special Tax A for each applicable Final Map shall be an amount (rounded to the nearest whole dollar) calculated pursuant to the formula below:
𝐑𝐁𝐒𝐓 = 𝐁𝐒𝐓 × (𝟏 + 𝐑𝐀𝐒𝐓 − 𝐀𝐒𝐓
𝐀𝐒𝐓 )
The terms above have the following meanings:
RBST = Revised Backup Special Tax A
BST = The Backup Special Tax A for the Final Map, as set forth in Section C.2.
RAST = The total estimated Assigned Special Tax A levy for all Land Use Classes of Developed Property in the Final Map, assuming buildout of CFD No. 2022 -1 IA 3, including any reduced Assigned Special Tax A amounts resulting from the calculations in Step 3b above.
AST = The total estimated Assigned Special Tax A levy for all Land Use Classes of Developed Property in the Final Map, assuming buildout of CFD NO. 2022 -1 IA 3 based on the Assigned Special Tax A rates in effect prior to the reduction, pursuant to steps 3a and 3b.
01337.0021/775248.1
85 5. If the Assigned Special Tax A for any Land Use Class is revised pursuant to Step 3b above, the CFD Administrator shall also prepare and execute a Certificate to Amend the Special Tax substantially in the form of Exhibit “A” hereto and shall de liver such Certificate to Amend the Special Tax for CFD No. 2022-1 IA 3. The Certificate to Amend the Special Tax shall be completed for all Land Use Classes and shall set forth, as applicable, either (i) the reduced Assigned Special Tax A for a Land Use C lass as calculated pursuant to step 3b, or (ii) the Assigned Special Tax A as identified in Table 1 of Section C for a Land Use Class that was not revised as determined pursuant to step 3a; as well as either (i) the revised Backup Special Tax A as calculat ed pursuant to Step 4, or (ii) the Backup Special Tax A as identified in Section C.2 that was not revised as determined pursuant to step 4 above.
6. If the anticipated date of issuance for the first series of Bonds is within 180 days of the date of receipt o f the Price Point Study by the CFD Administrator, CFD No. 2022 -1 IA 3 shall execute the acknowledgement on such Certificate to Amend the Special Tax dated as of the closing date of such Bonds, and upon the closing of such first series of Bonds, the Assigned Special Tax A for each Land Use Class and the Backup Special Tax shall be as set forth in such Certificate to Amend the Special Tax. If the date of issuance of the first series of Bonds is not within 180 days of the date of receipt of the Price Point Stu dy by the CFD Administrator, such Certificate to Amend the Special Tax shall not be acknowledged by CFD No. 2022 -1 IA 3 and shall, as of such date, be void and of no further force and effect. In such case, if subsequently a first series of Bonds is expecte d to be issued, at least 30 days prior to that expected date, steps 1 through 5 of this section shall be performed based on a new Price Point Study.
7. After the execution by CFD No. 2022 -1 IA 3 of the acknowledgment on the Certificate to Amend the Special Tax, CFD No. 2022-1 IA 3 shall cause to be recorded in the records of the County Recorder an Amended Notice of Special Tax Lien for CFD No. 2022 -1 IA 3 reflecting the Assigned Special Tax A and the Backup Special Tax A for CFD No. 2022 -1 IA 3 set forth in such Certificate to Amend the Special Tax.
8. If the Assigned Special Tax A is not required to be changed for any Land Use Class based on the calculations performed under Step 3 above, there shall be no reduction in the Assigned Special Tax A or Backup Speci al Tax A, and no Certificate to Amend the Special Tax shall be required.
H. TERM OF SPECIAL TAX
The Special Tax A shall be levied as long as necessary to meet the Special Tax Requirement for Facilities for a period not to exceed sixty (60) Fiscal Years commencing with Fiscal Year 2022-23, provided however that the Special Tax may cease to be levied in an earlier Fiscal Year if the CFD Administrator has determined that all required interest and principal payments on all Outstanding Bonds have been paid.
The Special Tax B shall be levied in perpetuity as necessary to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement for Services.
01337.0021/775248.1
86 I. EXEMPTIONS
The CFD Administrator shall classify as Exempt Property (i) Assessor’s Parcels of Public Property, (ii) Assessor’s Parcels of Property Owner Association Property, or (iii) 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, and (iv) Assessor’s Parcels with pu blic or utility easements making impractical their utilization for other than the purposes set forth in the easement as determined reasonably by the CFD Administrator, provided that no such classification in (i) through (iv), inclusive, would reduce the su m of all Taxable Property in CFD No. 2022 -1 IA 3 to less than 9.48 Acres. Assessor’s Parcels which cannot be classified as Exempt Property because such classification would reduce the sum of all Taxable Property in CFD No. 2022 -1 IA 3 to less than 9.48 Acres shall be classified as Provisional Property and will continue to be subject to the CFD No. 2022 -1 IA 3 Special Taxes accordingly. Tax exempt status for the purpose of this paragraph will be assigned by the CFD Administrator in the chronological order in which property becomes eligible for classification as Exempt Property.
If the use of an Assessor’s Parcel of Exempt Property changes so that such Assessor’s Parcel is no longer classified as one of the uses set forth in the first paragraph of Section I ab ove that would make such Assessor’s Parcel eligible to be classified as Exempt Property, such Assessor’s Parcel shall cease to be classified as Exempt Property and shall be deemed to be Taxable Property.
J. APPEALS
Any landowner who pays the Special Tax an d claims the amount of the Special Tax levied on his or her Assessor’s Parcel is in error shall first consult with the CFD Administrator regarding such error not later than thirty -six (36) months after first having paid the first installment of the Special Tax that is disputed. If following such consultation, the CFD Administrator determines that an error has occurred, then the CFD Administrator shall take any of the following actions, in order of priority, in order to correct the error:
(i) Amend the Special Tax levy on the landowner’s Assessor’s Parcel(s) for the current Fiscal Year prior to the payment date,
(ii) Require the CFD to reimburse the landowner for the amount of the overpayment to the extent of available CFD funds, or
(iii) Grant a credit again st, eliminate or reduce the future Special Taxes on the landowner’s Assessor’s Parcel(s) in the amount of the overpayment.
If following such consultation and action by the CFD Administrator the landowner believes such error still exists, such person may fi le a written notice of appeal with the Council. Upon the receipt of such notice, the Council or designee may establish such procedures as deemed necessary to undertake the review of any such appeal. If the Council or designee determines an error still exists, the CFD Administrator shall take any of the actions described as (i), (ii) and (iii) above, in order of priority, in order to correct the error.
