[a] Fee is determined based on the size of the water service meter as applied to the sewer rates. Fee is determined based on the new or net upsized water service meter connection and is also applied to the sewer rates. Sewer rates are calculated using the value of the existing system that is not subject to replacement through the existing Capital Improvement Project (CIP) program and the total annual water use by sewer system customers in billing units. Beginning July 1, 2002 and every July 1st thereafter, the fee will may automatically increase by an amount calculated using the following formula – multiply the most recent fee in effect by the percentage increase over the previous 12 months immediately preceding the most recent publication of the Engineering News Record of Construction Cost Index existing on July 1st of the year of the increase. The previous ENR Construction Cost Index was 8293. The ENR Construction Cost Index for June 2009 is 8578.

Fees shall not decrease below the level of rates existing on July 1, 2002. [b] For services that have never been connected or paid into the system, fees are calculated using the value of the existing system that is not subject to replacement through an existing Capital Improvement Project (CIP) program and the total annual water use by system customers in billing units.

Statement of Investment Policy
SECTION 1 – POLICY
This Statement of Investment Policy is intended to identify the policies for prudent investment of temporarily idle funds of the City of Seal Beach (the “City”) by providing guidelines for suitable investments while maximizing the efficiency of the City’s Cash Management Program.

The City’s Cash Management Program is designed to accurately monitor and forecast expenditures and revenues, thus enabling the investment of funds to the fullest extent possible.

The investment policies and practices of the City of Seal Beach are based upon state law and prudent money management. All funds will be invested in accordance with California Government Code Sections 53601 et seq. and the City’s Investment Policy.

SECTION 2 – SCOPE
The Investment Policy applies to all funds and investment activities of the City except the investment of bond proceeds, which are governed by the appropriate bond documents, and any pension or other post-employment benefit funds held in a trust.

SECTION 3 – PRUDENCE
The standard of prudence to be used by investment officials will be the “prudent investor” standard, which states that, “when investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling, or managing public funds, a trustee shall act with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the agency, that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims, to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the agency.” 2 SECTION 4 – OBJECTIVES
The primary objectives, in priority order, of the investment activities of the City are:

1. SAFETY – Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the City of Seal Beach.

2. LIQUIDITY – The City’s portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet its cash flow requirements. It is important that the portfolio contain investments which provide the ability of being easily sold at any time with minimal risk of loss of principal or interest.

3. YIELD – The City’s portfolio will be designed to attain a market rate of return through economic cycles consistent with the constraints imposed by its safety objective and cash flow considerations.

SECTION 5 – DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY
Pursuant to California Government Code Section 53607, the City Council has delegated its investment authority and the management responsibility for the investment program to the Director of Finance/City Treasurer for a period of one year concurrently with the City Council’s adoption of this Investment Policy. This delegation of investment authority is subject to review and annual renewal by the City Council in its discretion, which annual renewal may be made by the City Council in connection with its annual budget adoption or an amendment to this Investment Policy, or at such other time as appropriate and convenient. The Director of Finance/City Treasurer will monitor and review all investments for consistency with this Investment Policy. The Director of Finance/City Treasurer may grant investment decision making and execution authority to an investment advisor, provided that the Director of Finance/City Treasurer exercises prudence in the selection of the investment advisor, imposes suitable safeguards to prevent abuse in the exercise of discretion by the investment advisor, and remains responsible for any investment decisions made by the investment advisor. The advisor will follow the Investment Policy and such other written instructions as are provided.

SECTION 6 – INVESTMENT PROCEDURES
The Director of Finance/City Treasurer will establish investment procedures for the operation of the City’s investment program.

This will be done annually by having the financial institutions:

1. Provide written notification that they have read, and will abide by, the City’s Investment Policy.

2. Submit their most recent audited Financial Statement within 120 days of the institution’s fiscal year end.

If the City has an investment advisor, the investment advisor may use its own list of authorized broker/dealers to conduct transactions on behalf of the City, provided that the broker/dealer meets the requirements of the second paragraph, above, in this Section 8.

Purchase and sale of securities will be made on the basis of competitive bids and offers with a minimum of three quotes being obtained.

9 Glossary
Asset-Backed Securities (ABS) are securities whose income payments and hence value is derived from and collateralized (or "backed") by a specified pool of underlying assets which are receivables. Pooling the assets into financial instruments allows them to be sold to general investors, a process called securitization, and allows the risk of investing in the underlying assets to be diversified because each security will represent a fraction of the total value of the diverse pool of underlying assets. The pools of underlying assets can comprise common payments credit cards, auto loans, mortgage loans, and other types of assets. Interest and principal is paid to investors from borrowers who are paying down their debt.

Bankers’ Acceptances are short-term credit arrangements to enable businesses to obtain funds to finance commercial transactions. They are time drafts drawn on a bank by an exporter or importer to obtain funds to pay for specific merchandise. By its acceptance, the bank becomes primarily liable for the payment of the draft at maturity.

An acceptance is a high-grade negotiable instrument.

Broker-Dealer is a person or a firm who can act as a broker or a dealer depending on the transaction. A broker brings buyers and sellers together for a commission. They do not take a position. A dealer acts as a principal in all transactions, buying and selling for his own account.

Certificates Of Deposit

1. Negotiable Certificates of Deposit are large-denomination CDs. They are issued at face value and typically pay interest at maturity, if maturing in less than 12 months. CDs that mature beyond this range pay interest semi-annually.

Negotiable CDs are issued by U.S. banks (domestic CDs), U.S. branches of foreign banks (Yankee CDs), and thrifts. There is an active secondary market for negotiable domestic and Yankee CDs. However, the negotiable thrift CD secondary market is limited. Yields on CDs exceed those on U.S. treasuries and agencies of similar maturities. This higher yield compensates the investor for accepting the risk of reduced liquidity and the risk that the issuing bank might fail.

State law does not require the collateralization of negotiable CDs.

2. Non-negotiable Certificates of Deposit are time deposits with financial institutions that earn interest at a specified rate for a specified term. Liquidation of the CD prior to maturity incurs a penalty. There is no secondary market for these instruments, therefore, they are not liquid. They are classified as public deposits, and financial institutions are required to collateralize them. Collateral may be waived for the portion of the deposits that are covered by FDIC insurance. 10 Collateral refers to securities, evidence of deposits, or other property that a borrower pledges to secure repayment of a loan. It also refers to securities pledged by a bank to secure deposits. In California, repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase agreements, and public deposits must be collateralized.

Commercial Paper is a short term, unsecured, promissory note issued by a corporation to raise working capital.

Federal Agency Obligations are issued by U.S. Government Agencies or Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSE). Although they were created or sponsored by the U.S.

Government, most Agencies and GSEs are not guaranteed by the United States Government. Examples of these securities are notes, bonds, bills and discount notes issued by Fannie Mae (FNMA), Freddie Mac (FHLMC), the Federal Home Loan Bank system (FHLB), and Federal Farm Credit Bank (FFCB). The Agency market is a very large and liquid market, with billions traded every day.

Issuer means any corporation, governmental unit, or financial institution that borrows money through the sale of securities.

Liquidity refers to the ease and speed with which an asset can be converted into cash without loss of value. In the money market, a security is said to be liquid if the difference between the bid and asked prices is narrow and reasonably sized trades can be done at those quotes.

Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) is a special fund in the State Treasury that local agencies may use to deposit funds for investment. There is no minimum investment period and the minimum transaction is $5,000, in multiples of $1,000 above that, with a maximum of $65 million for any California public agency. It offers high liquidity because deposits can be converted to cash in twenty-four hours and no interest is lost. All interest is distributed to those agencies participating on a proportionate share determined by the amounts deposited and the length of time they are deposited.

Interest is paid quarterly via direct deposit to the agency’s LAIF account. The State keeps an amount for reasonable costs of making the investments, not to exceed onequarter of one per cent of the earnings.

Market Value is the price at which a security is trading and could presumably be purchased or sold.

Maturity is the date upon which the principal or stated value of an investment becomes due and payable.

Medium-Term Notes are debt obligations issued by corporations and banks, usually in the form of unsecured promissory notes. These are negotiable instruments that can be bought and sold in a large and active secondary market. For the purposes of California Government Code, the term “Medium Term” refers to a maximum remaining maturity of five years or less. They can be issued with fixed or floating-rate coupons, and with or 11 without early call features, although the vast majority are fixed-rate and non-callable.

Corporate notes have greater risk than Treasuries or Agencies because they rely on the ability of the issuer to make payment of principal and interest.

Money Market Fund is a type of investment comprising a variety of short-term securities with high quality and high liquidity. The fund provides interest to shareholders. Prior to amendments to the money market fund regulations adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in 2014, all money market funds were required to strive to maintain a stable net asset value (NAV) of $1 per share. Following the 2014 money market fund reform, certain money market funds are required to sell and redeem shares based on the current market-based value of the securities in their underlying portfolios rounded to the fourth decimal place (i.e., transact at a floating or fluctuating net asset value (NAV)). Accordingly, money market funds available today may be either a floating NAV money market fund or a stable NAV money market fund.

Principal describes the original cost of a security. It represents the amount of capital or money that the investor pays for the investment.

Repurchase Agreements are short-term investment transactions. Banks buy temporarily idle funds from a customer by selling him U.S. Government or other securities with a contractual agreement to repurchase the same securities on a future date at an agreed upon interest rate. Repurchase Agreements are typically for one to ten days in maturity. The customer receives interest from the bank. The interest rate reflects both the prevailing demand for Federal Funds and the maturity of the Repo.

Repurchase Agreements must be collateralized.

Supranationals are securities issued or unconditionally guaranteed by multi-lateral international financial institutions whose member nations contribute capital and participate in management.

U.S. Treasury Issues are direct obligations of the United States Government. They are highly liquid and are considered the safest investment security. U.S. Treasury issues include:

1. Treasury Bills which are non-interest-bearing discount securities issued by the U.S. Treasury to finance the national debt. Bills are currently issued in 4-week, 8- week, 13-week, 26-week, and 52-week maturities.

2. Treasury Notes that have original maturities of one to ten years.

3. Treasury Bonds that have original maturities of greater than 10 years.

Yield to Maturity is the rate of income return on an investment, minus any premium above par or plus any discount with the adjustment spread over the period from the date of the purchase to the date of maturity of the bond.

Re: 2024 Investment Policy Review
March 6, 2024
PFM Asset Management LLC completed our review of the City of Seal Beach’s Investment Policy (the “Policy”) as part of the City’s annual review process. The current Policy is comprehensive and is consistent with California Government Code (“Code”) statutes regulating the investment of public funds.

We are, however, recommending a couple of Policy changes for the City’s consideration. First, we recommend that the City update the language in Section 9.12. Shares of Beneficial Interest Issued by a Joint Powers Authority to allow the City to invest in the California Asset Management Program’s (“CAMP”) Term Pool. As a complement to CAMP’s floating rate, short-term liquidity pool; CAMP recently created a new pool program, CAMP Term, that offers fixed-rate, fixed-term investments. Using CAMP Term, local agencies can buy investments with maturities ranging from 60 days to one year. While CAMP Term seeks to maintain a stable net asset value at maturity, its share price prior to maturity can vary. CAMP Term is rated AAAf by Fitch. Additional information on CAMP Term is available at www.camponline.com.

Second, we recommend that the City update the language in Section 9.13. Asset Backed Securities (ABS) to incorporate a recent Code change that took effect January 1, 2024. Senate Bill 882, Local Government Omnibus Act of 2023, made various minor edits to state statues, including a change to Code Section 53601(o). The Bill clarified that mortgage-backed securities issued by federal agencies are excluded from the Code’s requirements described in Section 53601(o) for privately issued asset- and mortgage-backed securities. The change does not otherwise modify the Code’s or the Policy’s requirements for the purchase of asset-backed securities.

We have attached a marked up copy of the Policy to illustrate our recommended changes.

Please let us know if you have any questions or if you would like to discuss further. 1 FISCAL YEAR

AGENDA STAFF REPORT
DATE: June 24, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
THRU: Jill R. Ingram, City Manager
FROM: Barbara Arenado, Director of Finance
SUBJECT: Approving Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Annual Special Taxes for Community Facilities District No. 2002-01 (Heron Pointe) ________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY OF REQUEST:

That the City Council adopt Resolution 7541 approving Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Annual Special Taxes for Community Facilities District No. 2002-01 (Heron Pointe).

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:

On September 23, 2002, the City of Seal Beach (“City”) approved the establishment of Community Facilities District (“CFD”) 2002-01 known as Heron Pointe (“the District”) and approved Ordinance No. 1490 authorizing the levy of special taxes within the District. However, the development was faced with various delays related to the discovery of a Native American burial site within the District’s boundaries. As a result, final California Coastal Commission approval was not received until July 2005. Immediately upon receipt of final approval, the City issued $3,985,000 of CFD Bonds to fund the cost of various improvements within the District. Per the Official Statement dated June 5, 2015, the City issued $3,480,000 Special Tax Refunding Bonds, Series 2015 and scheduled the outstanding amount of the CFD Bonds issued in 2005 to be redeemed in full.

The City contracted with Willdan Financial Services to calculate special taxes for the District for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-2025. The special taxes collected are considered special revenue. Special revenue sources are legally restricted to specific purposes. As a result, this special tax is not included in the General Fund revenues.

The special taxes will satisfy debt service on the Bonds. The method of assessment for the special taxes is described in the Amended Rate and Method of Apportionment section of the CFD Report prepared by contractor Taussig and Associates and was submitted to Council on January 12, 2004. The method of assessment defines two primary categories of property: Developed Property and Undeveloped Property. The category of Developed Property is further divided into

five (5) separate special tax classifications that vary with land use (e.g., residential and non-residential) and floor area (in square feet). The FY 2024-2025 maximum and actual special taxes per unit/acre are listed as follows:

3 Residential 3,500 – 3,749 SF $5,973.07 $3,915.40
4 Residential < 3,500 SF $5,570.80 $0.00
5 Non-Residential NA $51,169.73 $0.00
N/A Undeveloped NA $57,345.15 $0.00
Exhibit A of the Resolution shows the FY 2024-2025 special tax levy for each parcel being taxed.

Total expenditures for FY 2024-2025 are estimated at $261,551.07. This estimate includes debt service payments of $249,668.76 and administrative expenses of $11,882.31. Total revenues from the special tax are estimated at $261,550.54 for FY 2024-2025. There is a small variance of $0.53 in total expenditures to total revenue due to a County submittal requirement that charges must be even and divisible by two (2). No credit will be applied to the levy this fiscal year.

________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY OF REQUEST:

That the City Council adopt Resolution 7542 approving Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Annual Special Tax Levy For Community Facilities District No. 2005-01 (Pacific Gateway Business Center).

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:

In January 2006, the City of Seal Beach (“City”) approved the establishment of Community Facilities District (“CFD”) No. 2005-01 known as the Pacific Gateway Business Center (“the District”). On February 13, 2006, the City Council approved Ordinance 1542 levying the special taxes within the District. Subsequently, in May 2006 the City issued $8,800,000 of CFD Bonds to fund the costs of various improvements within the District. Per the Official Statement dated January 6, 2016, the City issued $8,450,000 Special Tax Refunding Bonds, Series 2016 and scheduled the outstanding amount of the CFD Bonds issued in 2006 to be redeemed in full.

The City contracted with Willdan Financial Services to calculate the special taxes for the District for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-2025. The special taxes collected are considered special revenue. Special revenue sources are legally restricted to specific purposes. As a result, this special tax is not included in the General Fund revenues.

Special taxes were segregated into two (2) groups: A and B. Special Tax A will satisfy debt service on the Bonds (“Debt Service”) and Special Tax B will satisfy costs related to the maintenance of parks, parkways and open space within the District (“Landscape Maintenance”). Exhibit “A” of the resolution shows the FY 2024-2025 special tax levy for each parcel being taxed.

The method of assessment for Special Taxes A & B is described in the Rate and Method of Apportionment section of the Official Statement. The method of assessment defines two primary categories of property: Developed Property and Undeveloped Property. Special Tax A allows for a maximum assessment rate of $21,419.49 per Acre on Developed Property within the District. This rate is to be increased by an amount equal to two percent (2%) annually. The FY 2024-2025 maximum and actual Special Tax A per Acre is listed as follows:

Developed Property $21,419.49 $12,846.12

Total expenditures for FY 2024-2025 are estimated at $577,176.35. This estimate includes debt service payments of $558,950.00 and administrative expenses of $18,226.35. Total revenues from Special Tax A are estimated at $577,176.22 for FY 2024-2025. There is a small variance of $0.13 in total expenditures to total revenue due to a County submittal requirement that charges must be even and divisible by two. No credit will be applied to the levy this fiscal year.

The maximum Landscape Maintenance special tax rate for FY 2024-2025 is $3,384.17 per Acre within the District. This rate is to be increased by an amount equal to two percent (2%) annually. The FY 2024-2025 maximum and actual Special Tax B per Acre are listed as follows:

SUBJECT: Approving Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Annual Special Taxes for Community Facilities District No. 2002-02 (Seal Beach
Blvd./Lampson Ave. Landscape Maintenance District)
________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY OF REQUEST:

That the City Council adopt Resolution 7543 approving Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Annual Special Tax Levy for Community Facilities District No. 2002-02 (Seal Beach Blvd./Lampson Ave. Landscape Maintenance District).

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:

In July 2003, the City Council authorized a special tax to be levied within the Communities Facilities District No. 2002-02 known as Seal Beach Boulevard/Lampson Avenue Landscape Maintenance (“the District”). The special tax is levied against parcels on the east side of Seal Beach Boulevard to Lampson Avenue beginning north of the I-405 Freeway off-ramp and ending at the City limits.

The Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-2025 annual special tax is being increased from the prior fiscal year by the annual change in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers in the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County area, as measured between March of the second fiscal year prior to that fiscal year and March of the fiscal year immediately preceding that fiscal year. Only parcels located within the established District are charged this special tax for landscape maintenance. The special tax is calculated per gross land acreage multiplied by the land area of the parcel. The special tax rates for each area of the District are illustrated as follows:

The special taxes collected are considered special revenue. Special revenue sources are legally restricted to specific purposes, in this case, the landscape maintenance of public properties within the District boundaries; and therefore, are not included in the General Fund revenues. Total revenues from the special tax are estimated at $120,215.32 for FY 2024-2025.
