E. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF THE SPECIAL TAX
Commencing Fiscal Year 2022-2023 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 rates in Table 1 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 Annual 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 on each Assessor's Parcel of Developed Property whose Maximum Special Tax is the Backup Special Tax shall be increased in equal percentages from the Assigned Special Tax up to 100% of the Backup Special Tax as needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement.
Step Five: If additional moneys are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement after the first four steps have been completed, the Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each Assessor’s Parcel of Provisional 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.
Notwithstanding the above, under no circumstances will the Special Taxes levied in any Fiscal Year against any Assessor’s Parcel of Residential Property for which an occupancy permit for a private residential use has been issued as a result of a delinquency in the payment of the Special Tax applicable to any other Assessor’s Parcel be increased by more than ten percent (10%) Packet Pg. 1633
A-9
above the amount that would have been levied in that Fiscal Year had there never been any such delinquency or default.
F. EXEMPTIONS
The City shall classify as Exempt Property, in the chronological order in which the property becomes exempt, (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, or (vi) 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 6.46 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 6.46 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 6.46 Acres will be classified as Provisional Undeveloped Property, and will be subject to Special Tax pursuant to Step Five in Section E.
Welfare Exempt Property shall be exempt from the payment of the Special Tax so long as the property qualifies as a Welfare Exempt Property.
G. PREPAYMENT OF SPECIAL TAX
The following additional definitions apply to this Section G:
“CFD Public Facilities” means $4,000,000 expressed in 2022 dollars, which shall increase by the Construction Inflation Index on July 1, 2023, and on each July 1 thereafter, or such lower amount (i) determined by the City Council as sufficient to provide the public facilities under the authorized bonding program for CFD No. 2022-1, or (ii) determined by the City Council concurrently with a covenant that it will not issue any more Bonds 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 currently available for expenditure to acquire or construct public facilities eligible under CFD No. 2022-1.
“Construction Inflation Index” means the annual percentage change in the Engineering NewsRecord 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 Packet Pg. 1634
A-10
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 Public Facilities minus public facility costs available to be funded, or that were funded, through existing construction or escrow accounts or funded by the Outstanding Bonds or Special Taxes, and minus public facility costs funded by interest earnings on the Construction Fund actually earned prior to the date of prepayment. “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 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 or Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has not been issued, and (iv) Assessor’s Parcels of Provisional Undeveloped Property. 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. Within 15 days of receipt of such non-refundable deposit, the CFD Administrator shall notify such owner of the Prepayment Amount 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 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.
Packet Pg. 1635
A-11
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 to be prepaid, 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 the Maximum Special Tax 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 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 Packet Pg. 1636
A-12
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”).
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 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 on all non-delinquent 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 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.
Packet Pg. 1637
A-13
2. Prepayment in Part
The Maximum 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 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 Amount for the Assessor’s Parcel and that a portion of the Special Tax obligation equal to the remaining percentage (1.00 - F) of Special Tax obligation will continue 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. The Special Tax shall cease not later than the 2064-2065 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. 2022-1 Bonds have been paid; (ii) all authorized facilities of CFD No. 2022-1 have been acquired and all reimbursements to the developer have been paid, (iii) no delinquent Special Tax remain uncollected and (iv) all other obligations of CFD No. 2022-1 have been satisfied.
Packet Pg. 1638
A-14
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. 2022-1 may collect Special Tax 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 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.
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.

Subject: Initiation of Proceedings to Form Proposed
Community Facilities District No. 2022-2
(Palm)
Recommendation:
The Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California:
1. Adopt Resolution No. 2022-143 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, Declaring Intention to Establish Proposed Community Facilities District No. 2022-2 (Palm) of the City of San Bernardino;
2. Adopt Resolution No. 2022-144 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, Declaring Necessity to Incur a Bonded Indebtedness of Proposed Community Facilities District No. 2022-2 (Palm) of the City of San Bernardino
Background:
The City has received petitions from Pacific West Company, the owner of APN Nos. 0285- 211-21-00000, 0285-211-23-0000, and 0285-211-22-0000, and Hanhsing Li, Chenmei Cheng, and Ann C. Lau, the owners of APN Nos. 0285-211-05-0000 and 0285-211-25-0000, (the “Property”) requesting the formation of the proposed community facilities district, encompassing the Property, to finance:
(a) Acquisition, design, construction of local and regional circulation systems, storm drain improvements, and parkland and open space (the “Facilities”); and (b) The incidental expenses proposed to be incurred are: (i) the cost of planning and designing the public facilities and the cost of environmental evaluations thereof, (ii) all costs associated with the formation of the proposed community facilities district, the issuance of the bonds thereof, the determination of the amount of and collection of special taxes, the payment of special taxes, and costs otherwise incurred in order to carry out the authorized purposes of the proposed community facilities district, and (iii) any other expenses incidental to the construction, completion, and inspection of the public Facilities (the “Incidental Expenses”).
The proposed development includes approximately 15.51 gross acres of zoned residential property to include 133 detached single-family residential lots. The Property is located at the Packet Pg. 1645
northwest intersection of E Highland Ave. and N Palm Ave.
Discussion:
Approval of the resolutions described above is the first step to establish the proposed community facilities district for the Property. The resolutions:
approve the boundaries of the proposed community facilities district; specify the Facilities to be financed;
specify that special taxes will be levied on all parcels of taxable property in the proposed community facilities district to pay principal of and interest on the bonds of the district which will be issued to finance the Facilities, declare the necessity to incur bonded indebtedness; and schedule public hearings regarding the formation of the community facilities district and the necessity to incur bonded indebtedness.
The final steps for the formation of the proposed community facilities district will occur at the Mayor and City Council’s meeting on September 7, 2022. The Mayor and the City Council will conduct a public hearing on such day and following the public hearing may adopt resolutions to form the proposed community facilities district, determine the necessity to incur bonded indebtedness and call a special election of the qualified voters to approve the levy of special taxes and incur bonded indebtedness, conduct a special election and declare election results.
Should you have any questions, someone from our office will be present at the meeting for your convenience.
2021-2025 Key Strategic Targets and Goals:
This project is consistent with Key Target No 1. Improved Operational & Financial Capacity and Key Target No. 4: Economic Growth & Development. This project will contribute to ensure that the City is clean and attractive and provide infrastructure designed for long term economic growth.
Fiscal Impact:
No fiscal impact to the City as the costs for formation of Community Facilities District No. 2022- 2 is paid through a deposit provided by the developer and on-going administrative costs are paid through the levy of special taxes within Community Facilities District No. 2022-2.
Conclusion:
The Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California:
1. Adopt Resolution No. 2022-143 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, Declaring Intention to Establish Proposed Community Facilities District No. 2022-2 (Palm) of the City of San Bernardino;

Packet Pg. 1662
A-10
“Future Facilities Costs” means the CFD Public Facilities minus public facility costs available to be funded, or that were funded, through existing construction or escrow accounts or funded by the Outstanding Bonds or Special Taxes, and minus public facility costs funded by interest earnings on the Construction Fund actually earned prior to the date of prepayment. “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 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 or Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has not been issued, and (iv) Assessor’s Parcels of Provisional Undeveloped Property. 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.
Within 15 days of receipt of such non-refundable deposit, the CFD Administrator shall notify such owner of the Prepayment Amount 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 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 Assessor’s Parcel. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Approved Property or Undeveloped Property Packet Pg. 1663
A-11
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 to be prepaid, 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 the Maximum Special Tax 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 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 Maximum 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 Packet Pg. 1664
A-12
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 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 on all non-delinquent 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 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, 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:
Packet Pg. 1665
A-13
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 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 Amount for the Assessor’s Parcel and that a portion of the Special Tax obligation equal to the remaining percentage (1.00 - F) of Special Tax obligation will continue 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. The Special Tax shall cease not later than the 2064- 2065 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. 2022-2 Bonds have been paid; (ii) all authorized facilities of CFD No. 2022-2 have been acquired and all reimbursements to the developer have been paid, (iii) no delinquent Special Tax remain uncollected and (iv) all other obligations of CFD No. 2022-2 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. 2022-2 may collect Special Tax 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.
Packet Pg. 1666
A-14
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 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.
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.

Services.
Department: Finance
Subject: Resolution Declaring Intent to Annex Territory:
Community Facilities District No. 2018-1 (Safety
Services) Annexation No. 6, (TR 20494)
Recommendation:
Adopt Resolution No. 2022-145 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, declaring its intention to annex territory into Community Facilities District No. 2018-1 (Safety Services) of the City of San Bernardino, adopting a map of the area to be proposed (Annexation No. 6) and authorizing the levy of special taxes therein.
Background:
On September 19, 2018, the Mayor and City Council approved Resolution No. 2018-264 establishing Community Facilities District No. 2018-1 (Safety Services), of the City of San Bernardino, (the "CFD No. 2018-1" or "District") for the purpose of levying special taxes on parcels of taxable property to provide certain services which are necessary to meet increased demands placed upon the City.
Discussion:
Development projects are subject to conditions of approval that require projects to form/annex a services district. These districts apply an annual fee or special tax upon properties within the District which provide the revenue to offset the cost of public safety necessary to serve the development. PI Properties, LLC (the “Owner”) has agreed to initiate and conduct the CFD annexation proceedings pursuant to the Act. To that end, the Owner has submitted a "Consent and Waiver" form, which is on file in the City Clerk's office that authorizes the City to (1) hold the election and declare election results; (2) shorten election time requirements; (3) waive analysis and arguments; (4) waive all notice requirements relating to the conduct of the election immediately following the public hearing.
The public services proposed to be financed within and for the benefit of the territory to be annexed to the District are the following:
1. Police protection services (including but not limited to criminal justice services) and paramedic services; and
Packet Pg. 1674
2. City and County costs associated with the setting, levying and collection of the special tax, and in the administration of the District including the contract administration and for the collection of reserve funds.
The proposed development includes approximately 10.10 gross acres of zoned residential property to include 95 detached single-family residential lots. The property is located south of W. Highland Ave. west of Medical Center Dr. This development will be Annexation No. 6 within CFD No. 2018-1, as shown in the boundary map and included in the Resolution of Intention as Exhibit “D”. In order to annex into CFD No. 2018-1, a Resolution of Intention to annex property must be approved to identify the services and establish the maximum special tax for this annexation. The Resolution of Intention shall also set the date and time for the public hearing.
The rate and method of apportionment of the special tax for Annexation No. 6, is included as Exhibit “C” to the Resolution of Intention. The maximum annual special tax for this development has been calculated to be $385 per residential unit for FY 2022/23. If the maximum allowable annual fee were levied, the revenue generated would be $36,575 per year.
In order to annex property to CFD No. 2018-1 pursuant to the provisions of California Government Code Section 53311 et seq., the City must adopt a series of three statutorily required Resolutions and an Ordinance which are summarized below. Resolution declaring City intent to annex territory to Community Facilities District No. 2018-1 including the boundary of the area to be annexed and the rate and method of apportionment of special taxes within the annexation area (the special tax applies only to properties within the annexation area).
Resolution calling an election to submit to the qualified electors the question of levying a special tax within the area proposed to be annexed to the District. Resolution declaring the results of the election and directing the recording of the notice of special tax lien.
Amend the Ordinance and order the levy and collection of special taxes in the District.
With the adoption of the Resolution of Intention, the Public Hearing would be scheduled for September 7, 2022.
2021-2025 Key Strategic Targets and Goals:
This project is consistent with Key Target No 1. Improved Operational & Financial Capacity and Key Target No. 4: Economic Growth & Development. This project will contribute to ensure that the City is clean and attractive and provide infrastructure designed for long term economic growth.
Financial Impact:
The individual property owners in the CFD will be responsible for annual payments of special taxes. Upon full completion of the development, it is estimated that there will be an annual collection of special tax revenues of approximately $36,575 to be used to pay for safety services. The Maximum Special Tax rate is proposed to escalate each year after July 1, 2024 by four percent (4.0%).
All costs associated with annexation into the CFD have been borne by the Developer.
Packet Pg. 1675
Conclusion:
Adopt Resolution No. 2022-145 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, declaring its intention to annex territory into Community Facilities District No. 2018-1 (Safety Services) of the City of San Bernardino, adopting a map of the area to be proposed (Annexation No. 6) and authorizing the levy of special taxes therein.

Subject: Resolution Declaring Intent to Annex
Territory: Community Facilities District No.
2018-1 (Safety Services) Annexation No. 7,
(TR 20495) (Ward 4)
Recommendation:
Adopt Resolution No. 2022-146 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, declaring its intention to consider annexing territory to Community Facilities District No. 2018-1 (Safety Services) of the City of San Bernardino, adopting a map of the area to be proposed (Annexation No. 7) and authorizing the levy of special taxes therein.
Background:
On September 19, 2018, the Mayor and City Council approved Resolution No. 2018-264 establishing Community Facilities District No. 2018-1 (Safety Services) of the City of San Bernardino (the "CFD No. 2018-1" or "District") for the purpose of levying special taxes on parcels of taxable property to provide certain services which are necessary to meet increased demands placed upon the City.
Discussion:
Development projects are subject to conditions of approval that require projects to form/annex a services district. These districts apply an annual fee or special tax upon properties within the District which provide the revenue to offset the cost of public safety necessary to serve the development. Pacific West Company, et al. (the “Owners”) have agreed to initiate and conduct the CFD annexation proceedings pursuant to the Act. To that end, the Owner has submitted a "Consent and Waiver" form, which is on file in the City Clerk's office that authorizes the City to (1) hold the election and declare election results; (2) shorten election time requirements; (3) waive analysis and arguments; (4) waive all notice requirements relating to the conduct of the election immediately following the public hearing.
The public services proposed to be financed within and for the benefit of the territory to be annexed to the District are the following:
1. Police protection services (including but not limited to criminal justice services) and paramedic services; and Packet Pg. 1699
2. City and County costs associated with the setting, levying and collection of the special tax, and in the administration of the District including the contract administration and for the collection of reserve funds.
The proposed development includes approximately 15.51 gross acres of zoned residential property to include 133 detached single-family residential lots. The property is located at the northwest intersection of E Highland Ave. and N Palm Ave. This development will be Annexation No. 7 within CFD No. 2018-1, as shown in the boundary map and included in the Resolution of Intention as Exhibit “D”. In order to annex into CFD No. 2018-1, a Resolution of Intention to annex property must be approved to identify the services and establish the maximum special tax for this annexation. The Resolution of Intention shall also set the date and time for the public hearing.
The rate and method of apportionment of the special tax for Annexation No. 7, is included as Exhibit “C” to the Resolution of Intention. The maximum annual special tax for this development has been calculated to be $385 per residential unit for FY 2022/23. If the maximum allowable annual fee were levied, the revenue generated would be $51,205 per year.
In order to annex property to CFD No. 2018-1 pursuant to the provisions of California Government Code Section 53311 et seq., the City must adopt a series of three statutorily required Resolutions and an Ordinance which are summarized below. Resolution declaring City intent to annex territory to Community Facilities District No. 2018-1 including the boundary of the area to be annexed and the rate and method of apportionment of special taxes within the annexation area (the special tax applies only to properties within the annexation area).
Resolution calling an election to submit to the qualified electors the question of levying a special tax within the area proposed to be annexed to the District. Resolution declaring the results of the election and directing the recording of the notice of special tax lien.
Amend the Ordinance and order the levy and collection of special taxes in the District.
With the adoption of the Resolution of Intention, the Public Hearing would be scheduled for September 7, 2022.
2021-2025 Key Strategic Targets and Goals:
This project is consistent with Key Target No 1. Improved Operational & Financial Capacity and Key Target No. 4: Economic Growth & Development. This project will contribute to ensure that the City is clean and attractive and provide infrastructure designed for long term economic growth.
Financial Impact:
The individual property owners in the CFD will be responsible for annual payments of special taxes. Upon full completion of the development, it is estimated that there will be an annual collection of special tax revenues of approximately $51,205 to be used to pay for safety services. The Maximum Special Tax rate is proposed to escalate each year after July 1, 2024 Packet Pg. 1700
by four percent (4.0%). All costs associated with annexation into the CFD have been borne by the Developer.
Conclusion:
Adopt Resolution No. 2022-146 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, declaring its intention to consider annexing territory to Community Facilities District No. 2018-1 (Safety Services) of the City of San Bernardino, adopting a map of the area to be proposed (Annexation No. 7) and authorizing the levy of special taxes therein.

CONSENT CALENDAR
City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date: July 20, 2022
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Robert D. Field, City Manager;
Darren Goodman, Chief of Police
Department: Police
Subject: Authorize the City Manager to Execute a Police Services Agreement with Dignity Health Corporation
Recommendation
Authorize the City Manager to execute the Proposed Fifth Amendment to the Agreement with Dignity Health Corporation for Police services at two locations.
Background
On December 20, 2017, Mayor and City Council adopted Resolution No. 2017-214, authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with Dignity Health Corporation and the City of San Bernardino Police Department, to provide police services to Community Hospital and St. Bernardine’s Hospital. The agreement stipulated Dignity Health would fund two full-time sworn Police Officer or Police Detective overtime positions, assigning a Police Officer in each emergency room, two days per week. A renewed agreement spanning January 1, 2019, to December 31, 2021, was executed on February 19, 2019, under Resolution No. 2018-245, and signed by then City Manager Andrea Miller. This agreement provided Dignity Health would fund two fulltime sworn Police Officer positions, one at Community Hospital and one at St.
Bernardine’s Hospital, Thursday through Sunday, 1400-2400 hours. This agreement expired on December 31, 2021; however, extensions (see attached amendments) were agreed upon until June 30, 2022. During the span of these contracts, officers have handled hundreds of incidents that would have traditionally required a police patrol response. The location of these officers has proven valuable to the San Packet Pg. 1887
Bernardino Police Department, providing for more Police Officers to remain available for incidents throughout the City.
Discussion
Dignity Health is desirous of continuing a Policing Services Agreement until December 31, 2024, agreeing to continue funding the fully burdened rate of two full-time sworn Police Officer positions. Dignity Health funding will comprehensively include salary, benefit costs, and overtime costs. For FY 21/22, the expense to Dignity Health is $341,782 and increases to $365,490 by December 31, 2024. The proposed Fifth Amendment will accomplish these changes and will also clarify the City’s rights to assign personnel to these duties.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
The funding of these positions by Dignity Health is aligned with Key Target No.1:
Financial Stability. The ability to “Secure a long-term revenue source,” aligns with this Agreement. Dignity Health will fund the positions for a period of 3 years, causing no fiscal impact to the City. This creates two Police Officer positions for police services.
The request to renew an agreement with Dignity Health is aligned with Key Target No. 3: Improved Quality of Life. The constant evaluation of public safety services and the vessel for which it is provided, synthesizes to this agreement. Police Officers assigned to the emergency rooms, during peak hours, provides immediate police presence, for incidents traditionally requiring a police patrol response. These positions mitigate the necessity for a patrol officer to respond to an emergency room for policing service.
Fiscal Impact
Dignity Health is funding the fully burdened rate of the positions. There is no fiscal impact to the City.
Conclusion
Authorize the City Manager to execute the Proposed Fifth Amendment to the Agreement with Dignity Health Corporation for Police services at two locations.

Synopsis of Previous Council Actions:
February 19, 2019 The Mayor and City Council adopted Resolution No. 2019-8, to amend the adopted FY 2018/2019 Budget, to transfer funds to increase personnel and the authorization for then City Manager Andrea Miller, to sign an Agreement with Dignity Health Corporation.
December 20, 2017 The Mayor and City Council adopted Resolution No. 2017-245, approving the authorization of the City Manager to execute an Agreement between Dignity Health and the City of San

Adopt Resolution No. 2022-147 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, authorizing the acceptance of the 2020 and 2021 Edward Byrne Justice Assistance Grants and increasing the FY2022/23 Adopted Budget grant revenue and expenditures $379,025.
Background
The San Bernardino Police Department receives formulary grant funds from the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) as a sub-recipient of the County of San Bernardino. The last grant received was the 2016 award in the amount of $154,574. In 2017 the federal government-imposed conditions on federal grant funds awarded to local law enforcement requiring immigration enforcement. In August 2017 the Attorney General challenged this ruling. City and county agencies delayed acceptance of their annual awards until the lawsuits concluded which did not occur until 2019. Annual grant applications were submitted, and allocations determined by the Department of Justice, but all federal funding was delayed for 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, and 2021. In 2022 the grant funds became available for spending.
Grant funding is allocated on a formula that includes population and a three-year average of reported violent crime for each jurisdiction. The City of San Bernardino has been designated as a disparate jurisdiction, which is defined as a city receiving oneand-one half the County allocation.

The County of San Bernardino serves as the grant administrator and fiscal agent for the JAG program funds and charges each jurisdiction a 5% administrative fee. Below is a table illustrating the City’s allocation and award amounts, as well as the County’s 5% Administrative fees and grant periods. JAG grants are cash grants paid in advance and there are no matching funds required by this grant.

Discussion
The San Bernardino Police Department submitted projects for both the 2020 and 2021 JAG grants and those projects involved the purchase of additional patrol vehicles. Due to the delay in the release of 2020 and 2021 JAG funds for spending, the Police Department funded the purchase of vehicles through other sources, freeing the grant allocation for 2020 and 2021 to be used for the purchase of equipment and services that will better serve the current needs of the department. 2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
