SIGNIF'ICANT CAI,I,S SERVICE (Dec.2O21l
On January 6, at approximately 7:30pm, Officers responded to the 800 Block of Holt Ave. for a report of a vehicle struck by a bullet. Officers arrived on the scene and an investigation was conducted. Based on the impact marks on the driver's side window, it was determined that the shot more than likely was fired from the county area east of the residence. Additionally, a projectile was recovered from the vehicle and later booked into evidence. No injuries were reported.

On January72, at approximately 3pm, officers responded to a verbal disturbance in the 600 block of Edgar. Upon arrival they contacted all parties and determined that one subject threatened to kill another ofthe subjects living at the residence.

The suspect also had a two prong, metal, meat cleaver object, that she attempted to stab the subject with. The victim said he feared he would be killed, which is why he ran out of the residence. The suspect was placed in custody, booked, and transported to FCJ.

Greg Tarascou, Fire Chief
February 8,2022
To: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
Tim Chapa, City Manager
From: Greg Tarascou, Fire Chief
RE: FIRE DEPARTMENT REPORT FOR JANUARY
Starting the new year, the Fire Department continued to remain busy both with the Fire Division and EMS Division. ln January there were 351 calls for service for ambulance services within our area and within surrounding areas. On January 18th we were alerted to a record 25 calls within 2[-hour period. Last year in January ambulances were requested 361 times.

January and February tend to be busy months for medical-aid services.

Crews were also dispatched to 82 requests for services for fire calls, including house fires, grass fires, building fires, vehicle fires and unintentional or false alarm calls. This total equates to 433 calls for service in January, or almost 14 calls per day. Last year in January crews responded to 64 calls for service for the month.

Chute times are measured from the time the station is notified of an alarm to the time the unit goes enroute. For the month of January our chute time remained at 56 seconds, well under our benchmark of 90 seconds. Our travel time is measured from the time the unit is enroute to the time that we arrive on scene. For January our enroute time was 6 minutes, 34 seconds within the City. This is just over our benchmark of 6 minutes.

Staff has continued to meet with Central Valley hospitals regarding the impacts of hospital bed delays on our EMS delivery system. Staff contacted Supervisor Mendes and the County Administrative Officer Paul Neuland to discuss how current policies are affecting the delivery of patients to either waiting rooms or directly into the emergency room and have made recommendations to changes in policy. During the month of January, the EMS Agency reimplemented Policy 57L, Assess and Refer where Paramedics would properly evaluate a patient and based on a set list of parameters would not transport the patient to the hospital 1740 7th Street, Sanger, CA 93657

45 but offer alternative recommendations. This is in an effort to the increasing volumes of pre- hospital calls for service, over capacity at our local hospitals and increases in hospital bed delays. ln January we assessed and referred approximately 20 patients to alternative resources instead of to the emergency room for care.

Administratively the Fire Department continues to be very active in the discussions relating to the COVID-L9 virus. Staff has participated in bimonthly conference calls with Fresno County Department of Public Health as well as other local fire and emergency medical service agencies from the Central Valley. As the Omnicom variant of the COVID-19 virus continues the staff have continued to be diligent in the response and protection of the communityand our allied partners. As of today, we are maintaining a level of protection and prevention as recommended by the FCDPH, the CDC and Ca|/OSHA.

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council approves the out of State travel and training for the Fire Department Administrative Secretary to attend the National Conference on Ambulance Revenue Cycle, Management and Compliance (abc360) in Las Vegas, Nevada from March 8 - 10, 2022.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The abc360 Conference is the Nation's largest and most comprehensive educational event for ambulance industry billing, coding and compliance and administrative professionals. This is the west coast event that is the closest to Sanger. As the City has returned to ambulance billing in-house, the information obtained from these classes will be invaluable in ensuring that our staff have the most up to date knowledge on the intricacies of ambulance coding and billing.

BACKGROUND:

In the summer of 2018 the responsibility of ambulance billing was returned to the City after several decades of contracting out this service. The process of ambulance billing and working with Federal, State and private insurance companies for proper and responsible billing of patients is dynamic, with laws and statutes changing frequently, especially in the areas of compliance and patient privacy.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The Patrick Leahy Bulletproof Vest Partnership (BVP), created by the Bulletproof Vest Partnership Grant Act of 1998 is a unique U.S. Department of Justice initiative designed to provide a critical resource to state and local law enforcement.

This grant covers half the cost of each new vest purchased by the agency. The vests our officers wear must be replaced every 5 years per manufacturer recommendations. That cost is significant (approximately $985 per vest). We applied for the grant in April of 2021 and received notice of the award in October 2021.

Following two years of declining law enforcement officer line-of-duty deaths, the country realized a dramatic 37 percent increase in officer deaths in 2010. Fifty-nine of the 160 officers killed in 2010 were shot during violent encounters; a20 percent increase over 2009 numbers. The U.S. Department of Justice is committed to improving officer safety and has undertaken research to review and analyze violent encounters and law enforcement officer deaths and injuries. Due to the increase in the number of law enforcement officer deaths, coupled with our renewed efforts to improve officer safety, beginning with FY 2011, in order to receive BVP funds, jurisdictions must certifi', during the application process, that all law enforcement agencies benefitting from the BVP Program have a written "mandatory wear" policy in effect. This policy must be in place for at least all uniformed officers before any FY 2011 funding can be used by the agency. There are no requirements regarding the nature of the policy other than it being a mandatory wear policy for all uniformed officers while on duty. BJA strongly encourages agencies to consult the Intemational Association of Chiefs of Police's Model Policy on Body Armor and to strongly consider all recommendations within that policy. This policy change was announced in October 2010 by Attomey General Holder after consulting with and receiving input from the law enforcement community.

The Sanger Police Departrnent is in compliance with this requirement. The Police Departrnent has put in for and received this grant 10 times over the last 21 years and has been approved for a total of $62, 421.86 during that time.

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:

This US Department of Justice Grant will offset the costs associated with the purchase and replacement of the vests.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The cost of supplying the vests falls to the Police Dept. This grant will split that cost in half. The city will save approximately $5953 over the course of the grant cycle which expires 8131123.

ALTERNATIVES:

That the Council not accept the grant and the Police Dept. fully funds the cost for new and expired vests. That projected cost is $11,820 this year.

ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:

Purchases of vests will be split between the generat fund and the grant. \\nas l\shared\Forms & Templates

State Water Resource Control Board - California Water and Wastewater Arrearage Payment Program
1) Resolution No. 2022- | '

CONFLICT OF INTEREST:

None known.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council approve Resolution No. 2022- ly , approving a budget adjustment to the Fiscal Year 2021-2022 budget to record the receipt and appropriation of $136,063.82 from the State Water Resource Control Board (SWRCB) for the California Water and Wastewater Arrearage Payment Program (CWWAPP) for drinking water arrearages.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The SWRCB is administering the CWWAPP to provide community water systems with financial relief for unpaid water bill debt from their residential and commercial customers. The program utilizes funds from the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021to make direct payments to community water systems to cover customer arrearages, or past due bills, brought on during the COVID-I9 pandemic. City staff submitted a funding request to SWRCB for the first allocation of CWWAPP funds that covers the unpaid water debt of customer utility bills during the specified period of March 4,2020 through June 15, 202I.

The SWRCB has recently launched the application for the second allocation of program funding that will cover the unpaid wastewater debt of customer utility bills for the same specified period. City staff is working on compiling data for the second allocation of program funding for wastewater arrearages.

90 BACKGROUND:

The State legislature allocated $985 million in federal funding to provide relief to community water and wastewater systems for unpaid utility bills related to the pandemic. The funds are being administered by the State Water Resource Control Board (SWRCB) through the California Water and Wastewater Arrearage Payment Program (CWWAPP). The CWAPP will provide one-time funding to assist with water and wastewater revenue losses due to unpaid utility bills. The program initially prioritizes customer water arrearages and will extend to wastewater arrearages with remaining funding.

The SWRCB conducted a state-wide survey in September202I to determine the total amount of drinking water debt accumulated in the state between March 4,2020,and June 15,202L City staff compiled the data for submission of the survey. Subsequently, the SWRCB launched the application for the first allocation of program funding for water affearages to all community water systems that completed the survey and reported arrearages.

The City provided information in the application request to the SWRCB for the specified period. At the time of application, 808 residential and commercial customer accounts had eligible unpaid water bill debt in the amount of $132,100.80. In addition, the SWRCB allowed community water systems to request up to 3Yo of the eligible arrearage amount, 53,963.02, for use towards administrative costs. The grand total requested was $ 1 36,0 63.82.

Important points about the first allocation of the CWWAPP:
o At the time the City receives program funding, the funds will only cover the unpaid water portion of the customer's unpaid balance for the specified period of March 4,2020 through June 15,202I o There is no income qualification for the program and customers do not need to apply. . The City will credit eligible residential and commercial customer accounts within 60 days of receiving funds and in consistency with the program guidelines. o Customers will remain liable for any portion of their water debt not covered by the program. o The City will offer payment plans to customers for remaining utility bill balances.

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:

Many Sanger residents and businesses have been negatively impacted by COVID-I9 and were unable to pay their utility bills due to job loss and other hardships.

F'ISCAI, IMPACT:

Funds received will provide financial relief for unpaid water bills and reduce the City's water fund anearages.

ALTERNATIVES:

Do not approve the resolution, forfeit the funds, customers will not receive credits for the unpaid water portion of their utility bill and will remain liable for all remaining utility bill balance.

ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:

City staff will record the budget amendment and will continue to apply credits to the eligible accounts 91 ATTACHMENT 1

I move to approve Resolution 2022-_a Resolution Authorizing the Execution and Delivery by the City of a Ground Lease, Lease Agreement, Indenture and Term Sheet in Connection with the Issuance of Sanger Financing Authority Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2}22{,Approving the Issuance of such Bonds in an Aggregate Principal Amount of not to exceed $1,500,000, and Authorizing the Execution of Necessary Documents and Certihcates and Related Actions.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Issuance of the 2022 Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds ("2022 Bonds") by the Sanger Financing Authority will benefit the City as follows:

The City assets that are being used as the subject of the related Lease Agreement for the current outstanding 2013 Bonds include City Hall, the Fire Station, and the City Annex, which have a combined estimated value of over $7.6 million. With the issuance of the 2022Bonds, the Police Station will be substituted as the pledged City asset, which is closer in value (est. $1.8 million) to the estimated S1,426,000 par amount ofthe 2022Bonds.

By issuing the2022 Bonds to refund the outstanding2}I3 Bonds, the City will save approximately $165,000 in total interest costs over the remaining life of the Bonds (final term date will remain as 611512043). All costs of bond issuance will be paid from the2022Bond proceeds, and the estimated total interest cost savings is net ofsuch issuance costs. o
BACKGROUND:

In November of 2013, the City (through its Financing Authority) issued Lease Revenue Bonds in the amount of $1,320,000. Currently outstanding in the amount of $1,255,000, the 2013 Lease Revenue issue has interest rates ranging from 3.00% to 5.00%. The repayment of the 2013 Lease Revenue bond issue is from lease payments made by the City to the Financing Authority, per the terms of a Lease Agreement.

The Lease Agreement is secured by pledged City assets, including the City Hall, Fire Station, and City Annex.

Based on the latest insurance valuations, the combined pledged City assets subject to the 2013 Lease Agreement total approximately $7.6 million in valuation, or over six times the outstanding amount of 2013 Bonds. The issuance of the 2022 Bonds will result in a substitution of the City's Police Station as the pledged asset subject to a new Lease Agreement, which will free up the current pledged assets. Those assets can then be available for future potential lease revenue financings to provide firnding as necessary for public improvement projects.

The2022 Bonds will be structured as a o'private placement" issue, with one bank (First Foundation) acting as the bond purchaser. The Bank has provided two interest rates: a taxable interest rate of 3.25% which will be in effect until approximately 90 days prior to the June 15,2023 first available call date of the 2013 Bonds, and a subsequent tax-exempt rate of 2.65% which will be in effect after the 2022 Bonds are converted to a tax-exempt issue in March of 2023. These interest rates have been locked in until the expected closing date (March 3,2022) of the 2022Bonds.
97 FISCAL IMPACT:

All costs of issuing the bonds will come from the proceeds of the bonds, so there is no immediate fiscal impact. By issuing the 2022 Bonds at lower interest rates, a total interest cost savings of approximately $165,000 will be generated over the remaining life of the bonds, net of issuance costs. Pursuant to the requirements of SB 450, good faith estimates with respect to the 2022Bonds are set forttr in the table below.

ALTERNATIVES:

N/A
ACTIONS F'OI,I APPROVAL:

Bond Counsel will prepare closing documents, for a bond closing on March 3,2022. In March of 2023, the2022 Bonds taxable interest rate of 3.25% will be converted to a tax-exempt rcte of 2.65%. On June 15 ,2023, the outstanding 20 I 3 Bonds will be called in full from the amount in the Escrow Fund of the 2022 Bonds.

Section 3.01 Base Rental Payments.
(a) Subject to the provisions hereof relating to a revision of the Base Rental Payment Schedule pursuant to subsection (b) or subsection (c) of this Section, the City shall pay to the Authority, as Base Rental Payments (subject to the provisions of Section 3.06 and Article VII hereof) the amount at the times specified in the Base Rental Payment Schedule, a portion of which Base Rental Payments shall constitute principal, and a portion of which shall constitute interest. Rental Payments, including Base Rental Payments, shall be paid by the City to the Authority for and in consideration of the right to use and occupy the Property and in consideration of the continued right to the quiet use and enjoyment thereof during each Rental Period for which such Rental Payments are to be paid.

The Authority and the City understand and intend that the obligation of the City to pay Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments hereunder shall constitute a current expense of the City and shall not in any way be construed to be a debt of the City in contravention of any applicable constitutional or statutory limitation or requirement concerning th e creation of indebtedness by the City, nor shall anything contained herein constitute a pledge of the general tax revenues, funds or moneys of the City. Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments due hereunder shall be payable only from current funds which are budgeted and appropriated or otherwise legally available for the purpose of paying Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments or other payments due hereunder as consideration for the use of the Demised Premises and Facilities. The City has not pledged the full faith and credit of the City, the State or any agency or department thereof to the payment of the Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments or any other payments due hereunder.
(b) If the term of this Lease Agreement sh all have been extended pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof, the obligation of the City to pay Rental Payments shall continue to and including the Base Rental Deposit Date preceding the Termination Date (as so extended pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof). Upon such extension, the Base Rental Payments shall be established so that they will be sufficient to pay all extended and unpaid Base Rental Payments; provided, however, that the Rental Payments payable in any Rental Period shall not exceed the annual fair rental value of the Property. 121

(c) On the Tax -Exempt Reissuance Date, the City shall deliver to the Authority, the Trustee and the Owner of the Bonds, a revised Base Rental Payment schedule in the form of Exhibit B. Such updated Base Rental Payment schedule shall reflect the then unpaid Base Rental Payments calculated based on the Tax-Exempt Rate, which updated schedule shall be subject to written approval by the Owner of the Bonds. Upon the delivery of the revised Exhibit B as required by this subsection (c), such revised Exhibit B shall automatically supersede the Exhibit B then in effect without any further actions being required on the part of the City or the Authority.

Section 3.02 Additional Rental Payments. The City shall also pay, as Additional Rental Payments, such amounts as shall be required for the payment of the following:
(a) all taxes and assessments of any type or nature charged to the Authority or the City or affecting the Property or the respective interests or estates of the Authority or the City therein; (b) all reasonable administrative costs of the Authority relating to the Property including, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, salaries, wages, fees and expenses, compensation and indemnification of the Trustee payable by the Authority und er the Indenture, fees of auditors, accountants, attorneys or engineers, and all other necessary and reasonable administrative costs of the Authority or the Trustee, or charges required to be paid by it in order to maintain its existence or to comply with the terms of the Indenture or the Lease Agreement or to defend the Authority and its members, officers, agents and employees; (c) insurance premiums for all insurance required pursuant to Article V hereof; (d) any amounts with respect to the Lease Agreement or the Bonds required to be rebated to the federal government in accordance with Section 148(f) of the Code; and (e) all other payments required to be paid by the City under the provisions of this Lease Agreement or the Indenture.

Amounts constituting Additional Rental Payments payable hereunder shall be paid by the City directly to the person or persons to whom such amounts shall be payable. The City shall pay all such amounts when due or at such later time as such amounts may be paid without penalty or, in any oth er case, within 60 days after notice in writing from the Trustee to the City stating the amount of Additional Rental Payments then due and payable and the purpose thereof.

Section 3.03 Fair Rental Value . The parties hereto have agreed and determined that the annual fair rental value of the Property is not less than the maximum annual Rental Payments due in any year. In making such determination of fair rental value, consideration has been given to the uses and purposes that may be served by the Property and the benefi ts therefrom which will accrue to the City and the general public. Payments of the Rental Payments for the Property during each Rental Period shall constitute the total rental for said Rental Period and shall be paid by the City in each Rental Period for and in consideration of the right of use and occupancy of the Property during each such period for which said rental is to be paid.

Section 3.04 Payment Provisions . Each installment of Base Rental Payments payable hereunder shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America to or upon the order of the Authority at the principal office of the Trustee in Los Angeles, California, or such other place or entity as the Authority shall designate. Each Base Rental Payment shall be deposited with the Trustee no 122

7 4887-1385-1915v3/022765-0007
later than the Base Rental Deposit Date preceding the Interest Payment Date on which such Base Rental Payment is due. In the event the Owner of the Bonds exercises its option to increase the interest rate on the Bond to the Default Rate upon the occurrence and continuation of an event of default pursuant to Section 2.02(b) of the Indenture, the interest component of the Base Rental Payments shall accrue at the Default Rate so that the interest component of the Base Rental Payments matches the interest accruing on the Bonds; provided, however, from and after the Date of Taxability following a Determination of Taxability, the interest component of the Base Rental Payments shall accrue at the Taxable Rate so that the interest component of the Base Rental Payments matches the interest accruing on the Bonds.

Notwithstanding any dispute between the Authority and the City, the City shall make all Rental Payments when due without deduction or offset of any kind and shall not withhold any Rental Payments pending the fina l resolution of such dispute. In the event of a determination that the City was not liable for said Rental Payments or any portion thereof, said payments or excess of payments, as the case may be, shall be credited against subsequent Rental Payments due h ereunder or refunded at the time of such determination. Amounts required to be deposited by the City with the Trustee pursuant to this Section on any date shall be reduced to the extent of available amounts on deposit in the Base Rental Payment Fund, the Interest Fund or the Principal Fund.

Section 3.05 Appropriations Covenant. The City covenants to take such action as may be necessary to include all Rental Payments due hereunder as a separate line item in its annual budgets and to make necessary annual appropriations for all such Rental Payments. The City will deliver to the Authority and the Trustee a Certificate of the City stating that its final annual budget includes all Base Rental Payments due in such fiscal year within ten days after the filing or adoption thereof. The covenants on the part of the City herein contained shall be deemed to be and shall be construed to be duties imposed by law and it shall be the duty of each and every public official of the City to take such action and do such things as are required by law in the performance of the official duty of such officials to enable the City to carry out and perform the covenants and agreements in this Lease Agreement agreed to be carried out and performed by the City.

Section 3.06 Rental Abatement. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Section, during any period in which, by reason of material damage to, or destruction or condemnation of, the Property, or any defect in title to the Property, there is substantial interference with the City’s right to use and occupy any portion of the Property, Rental Payments shall be abated proportionately, and the City waives the benefits of Civil Code Sections 1932(1), 1932(2) and 1933(4) and any and all other rights to terminate the Lease Agreement by virtue of any such interference, and the Lease Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. The amount of such abatement shall be agreed upon by the City and the Authority; provided, however, that the Rental Payments due for any Rental Period shall not exceed the annual fair rental value of that portion of the Property available for use and occupancy by the City during such Rental Period. The City and the Authority shall calculate such abatement and shall provide the Trustee with a certificate setting forth such calcu lation and the basis therefor. Such abatement shall continue for the period commencing with the date of interference resulting from such damage, destruction, condemnation or title defect and, with respect to damage to or destruction of the Property, ending with the substantial completion of the work of repair or replacement of the Property, or the portion thereof so damaged or destroyed; and the term of this Lease Agreement shall be extended as provided in Section 2.02 hereof, except that the term shall in no event be extended beyond the Maximum Lease Term.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that moneys are available for the payment of Rental Payments in any of the funds and accounts established under the Indenture, Rental Payments shall not be abated as provided above but, rather, shall be payable by the City as a special obligation payable solely from said funds and accounts
Section 3.07 Use of Proceeds. The parties hereto agree that the proceeds from the sale of the Bonds will be used to refund the 2013 Bonds and for such other purposes as may be set forth in a Written Order of the Authority.

(c) In addition to the other remedies set forth in this Section, upon the occurrence of an event of default, the Authority and its assignee shall be entitled to proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in the Authority and its assignee by the Lease Agreement or by law.

Each and all of the remedies given to the Authority hereunder or by any law now or hereafter enacted ar e cumulative and the single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall not impair the right of the Authority to the further exercise thereof or the exercise of 129

any or all other rights, powers or privileges.

In the event the Authority shall prevail in any action brought to enforce any of the terms and provisions of this Lease Agreement, the City agrees to pay a reasonable amount as and for attorney’s fees incurred by the Authority in attempting to enforce any of the remedies available to the Authority hereunder.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease Agreement, the Authority shall have no right upon a default hereunder by the City to accelerate Rental Payments. (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease Agreement, the termination of this Lease Agreement by the Authority and its assignees on account of a default by the City under this Section shall not effect or result in a termination of the Ground Lease.

Section 6.02 Waiver. Failure of the Authority to take advantage of any default on the part of the City shall not be, or be construed as, a waiver thereof, nor shall any custom or practice which may grow up between the parties in the course of administering this instrument be construed to waive or to lessen the right of the Authority to insist upon performance by the City of any term, covenant or condition hereof, or to exercise any rights given the Authority on account of such default. A waiver of a particular default shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other default or of the same default subsequently occurring.

Re: $__________ Sanger Financing Authority Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2022A
Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have examined the Constitution and the laws of the State of California, a certified record of the proceedings of the Sanger Financing Authority (the “Authority”) and the City of Sanger (the “City”) taken in connection with the conversion of t he interest rate payable with respect to Sanger Financing Authority Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2022A in the aggregate principal amount of $__________ (the “Bonds”) to the tax -exempt rate and such other information and documents as we consider necessary to render this opinion. In rendering this opinion, we have relied upon certain representations of fact and certifications made by the Authority, the City, the purchaser of the Bonds and others. We have not undertaken to verify through independent investigation the accuracy of the representations and certifications relied upon by us.

The Bonds have been issued pursuant to Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 43600) of Division 4 of Title 4 of the Government Code of the State of California and the Indenture dated as of __________ 1, 2022 by and among the Authority, the City and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (collectively, the “Indenture”). Capitalized terms used herein and not defined shall have the meanings given such terms in the Indenture.

Based upon our examination of the foregoing, and in reliance thereon and on all matters of fact as we deem relevant under the circumstances, and upon consideration of applicable laws, we are of the opinion that:

1. Under existing statutes, regulat ions, rulings and judicial decisions, and assuming the accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain covenants and requirements described herein, interest (and original issue discount) on the Bonds on and after the date hereof is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of calculating the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals.

2. Interest on the Bonds is exempt from State of California personal income tax.

The opinions expressed herein as to the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds are based upon certain representations of fact and certifications made by the Authority and the City and are subject to the condition that the Authority and the City comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) that must be satisfied subsequent to the reissuance of the Bonds to assure that such interest on the Bonds will not become includable in gross 196

C-2
4884-1271-3227v3/022765-0007
income for federal income tax purposes. Failure to comply with such requirements of the Code might cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of reissuance of the Bonds. The Authority and the City have covenanted to comply with all such requirements.

The opinions expressed herein may be affected by actions taken (or not taken) or events occurring (or not occurring) after the date hereof. We have not undertaken to determine, or to inform any person, whether any such actions or events are taken or do occur. The Indenture and the Tax Certificate relating to the Bonds permit certain actions to be taken or to be omitted if a favorable opinion of Bond Counsel is provided with respect thereto. No opinion is expressed herein as to the effect on the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds for federal income tax purposes with respect to any Bond if any such action is taken or omitted based upon the opinion or advice of counsel other than ourselves. Other than expressly stated herein, we express no other opinion regarding tax consequences with respect to the Bonds.

The opinions expressed herein are based upon our analysis and interpretation of existing laws, regulations, rulings and judic ial decisions and cover certain matters not directly addressed by such authorities. We call attention to the fact that the rights and obligations under the Indenture, the Tax Certificate and the Bonds are subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights, to the application of equitable principles if equitable remedies are sought, to the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases and to limitations on legal remedies against public agencies in the State of California.

Our opinion is limited to matters governed by the laws of the State of California and federal tax law. We assume no responsibility with respect to the applicability or the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

Respectfully submitted,

I move to approve Resolution 22-_ a Resolution Authorizing the Execution and Delivery by the Authority of a Ground Lease, Lease Agreement, an Indenture, an Assignment Agreement, an Escrow Agreement and a Term Sheet in Connection with the Issuance of Sanger Financing Authority Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2022A, Authorizing the Issuance of such Bonds in an Aggregate Principal Amount of not to exceed $ 1,500,000, and Authorizing the Execution of Necessary Documents and Certificates and Related Actions.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The Issuance of the 2022 Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds (*2022 Bonds") by the Sanger Financing Authority will benefitthe City as follows:

The City assets that are being used as the subject of the related Lease Agreement for the current outstanding 2013 Bonds include City Hall, the Fire Station, and the City Annex, which have a combined estimated value of over $7.6 million. With the issuance of the 2022Bonds, the Police Station will be substituted as the pledged City asset, which is closer in value (est. $1.8 million) to the estimated $1,426,000 par amount of the 2022Bonds.
a
a By issuing the2022 Bonds to refundthe outstanding 2013 Bonds, the City will save approximately $165,000 in total interest costs over the remaining life of the Bonds (final term date will remain as 611512043). All costs of bond issuance will be paid from the2022Bond proceeds, and the estimated total interest cost savings is net ofsuch issuance costs.

BACKGROUND:

In November of 2013, the City (through its Financing Authority) issued Lease Revenue Bonds in the amount of $1,320,000. Currently outstanding in the amount of $1,255,000, the 2013 Lease Revenue issue has interest rates ranging from 3.00% to 5.00%. The repayment of the 2013 Lease Revenue bond issue is from lease payments made by the City to the Financing Authority, per the terms of a Lease Agreement.

The Lease Agreement is secured by pledged City assets, including the City Hall, Fire Station, and City Annex.

Based on the latest insurance valuations, the combined pledged City assets subject to the 2013 Lease Agreement total approximately $7.6 million in valuation, or over six times the outstanding amount of 2013 Bonds. The issuance of the 2022Bonds will result in a substitution of the City's Police Station as the pledged asset subject to a new Lease Agreement, which will free up the current pledged assets. Those assets can then be available for future potential lease revenue financings to provide frnding as necessary for public improvement projects.

The2022 Bonds will be structured as a "private placement" issue, with one bank (First Foundation) acting as the bond purchaser. The Bank has provided two interest rates: a taxable interest rate of 3.25% which will be in effect until approximately 90 days prior to the June 15, 2023 first available call date of the 201 3 Bonds, and a subsequent tax-exempt rate of 2.65% which will be in effect after the 2022 Bonds are converted to a tax-exempt issue in March of 2023. These interest rates have been locked in until the expected closing date (March 3,2022) of the 2022Bonds.
222
FISCAL IMPACT:

All costs of issuing the bonds will come from the proceeds of the bonds, so there is no immediate fiscal impact. By issuing the 2022 Bonds at lower interest rates, a total interest cost savings of approximately $165,000 will be generated over the remaining life of the bonds, net of issuance costs. Pursuant to the requirements of SB 450, good faith estimates with respect to the 2l22Bondsare set forth in the table below.

ALTERNATIVES:

N/A
ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:

Bond Counsel will prepare closing documents, for a bond closing on March 3,2022. In March of 2023, the 2022 Bonds taxable interest rate of 3.25%o will be converted to a tax-exempt rate of 2.65%. On June 15,2023,the outstanding2}l3 Bonds will be called in full from the amount in the Escrow Fund of the 2022 Bonds.

The Authority and the City understand and intend that the obligation of the City to pay Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments hereunder shall constitute a current expense of the City and shall not in any way be construed to be a debt of the City in contravention of any applicable constitutional or statutory limitation or requirement concerning th e creation of indebtedness by the City, nor shall anything contained herein constitute a pledge of the general tax revenues, funds or moneys of the City.

Section 3.03 Fair Rental Value . The parties hereto have agreed and determined that the annual fair rental value of the Property is not less than the maximum annual Rental Payments due in any year. In making such determination of fair rental value, consideration has been given to the uses and purposes that may be served by the Property and the benefi ts therefrom which will accrue to the City and the general public. Payments of the Rental Payments for the Property during each Rental Period shall constitute the total rental for said Rental Period and shall be paid by the City in each Rental Period for and in consideration of the right of use and occupancy of the Property during each such period for which said rental is to be paid.

Section 3.04 Payment Provisions . Each installment of Base Rental Payments payable hereunder shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America to or upon the order of the Authority at the principal office of the Trustee in Los Angeles, California, or such other place or entity as the Authority shall designate.

Notwithstanding any dispute between the Authority and the City, the City shall make all Rental Payments when due without deduction or offset of any kind and shall not withhold any Rental Payments pending the fina l resolution of such dispute. In the event of a determination that the City was not liable for said Rental Payments or any portion thereof, said payments or excess of payments, as the case may be, shall be credited against subsequent Rental Payments due h ereunder or refunded at the time of such determination. Amounts required to be deposited by the City with the Trustee pursuant to this Section on any date shall be reduced to the extent of available amounts on deposit in the Base Rental Payment Fund, the Interest Fund or the Principal Fund.

Section 3.05 Appropriations Covenant. The City covenants to take such action as may be necessary to include all Rental Payments due hereunder as a separate line item in its annual budgets and to make necessary annual appropriations for all such Rental Payments. The City will deliver to the Authority and the Trustee a Certificate of the City stating that its final annual budget includes all Base Rental Payments due in such fiscal year within ten days after the filing or adoption thereof. The covenants on the part of the City herein contained shall be deemed to be and shall be construed to be duties imposed by law and it shall be the duty of each and every public official of the City to take such action and do such things as are required by law in the performance of the official duty of such officials to enable the City to carry out and perform the covenants and agreements in this Lease Agreement agreed to be carried out and performed by the City.

The amount of such abatement shall be agreed upon by the City and the Authority; provided, however, that the Rental Payments due for any Rental Period shall not exceed the annual fair rental value of that portion of the Property available for use and occupancy by the City during such Rental Period. The City and the Authority shall calculate such abatement and shall provide the Trustee with a certificate setting forth such calcu lation and the basis therefor. Such abatement shall continue for the period commencing with the date of interference resulting from such damage, destruction, condemnation or title defect and, with respect to damage to or destruction of the Property, ending with the substantial completion of the work of repair or replacement of the Property, or the portion thereof so damaged or destroyed; and the term of this Lease Agreement shall be extended as provided in Section 2.02 hereof, except that the term shall in no event be extended beyond the Maximum Lease Term.
