Certificates of Participation (2007 Community Projects). The 2015 Bonds were issued in the amount of $96,120,000 and were issued with a final maturity date of May 1, 2037. After the May 1, 2025 payment, the 2015 Bonds will be outstanding in the amount of $74,400,000.
S
avings & Bond Structure:
In the current market, the 2015 Bonds can be refinanced, and the City can take advantage of lower interest rates to generate significant savings to the general fund by lowering the annual debt service.
The f
ollowing table presents a side-by-side analysis of the City’s 2015 Bonds, the estimated debt service on the 2025 Bonds and the estimated savings. Staff analyzed two different structuring scenarios. The first assumes that the 2025 Bonds are structured to provide level annual savings. This means that the 2025 Bonds debt service payments escalate over time to mirror the 2015 Bonds debt service payments. The second scenario assumes that the 2025 Bonds are structured to provide level annual debt service. Under this structure, annual savings are lower in the early years and higher in the later years.
U
nder each scenario, the 2025 Bonds are expected to have the same payment dates with the same final maturity of the 2015 Bonds of May 1, 2037. The following table provides a summary of Financing Statistics comparing the 2015 Bonds to the two refunding scenarios detailed later in the report.

ollowing table compares the 12-year debt service schedules of the 2015 Bonds and the two refunding scenarios.

Staff is recommending Scenario 2 as it:
1. P rovides a lower interest rate and higher savings than Scenario 1,
2. A ccelerates the paydown of the principal quicker than Scenario 1, and
3. P rovides for a more level and sustainable annual debt payment that is more conducive to absorbing other rising General Fund costs over time, such as pensions.
With annual costs on the City’s CalPERS pension debt rising year over year, escalating payments on the 2025 Lease Refunding Bonds (Scenario 1) would not provide as much relief on budgetary pressures. While both scenarios provide significant budgetary savings to the General Fund, the level debt service is recommended for the reasons above.
As shown in the table above, and based on current interest rates in the municipal market, the financing team estimates that the refunding will generate $11.26 million of cumulative cash flow savings through FY 2037, with average annual savings of $938,555 per year. On a present value basis, this equates to $8.46 million, or 11.37%, of the refunded par amount. All financing costs are paid from bond proceeds and have been incorporated into the refunding savings analysis. Estimated financing costs are $580,263 and include underwriting discount, fees associated with bond counsel, disclosure counsel, municipal advisory services, rating costs, trustee and other miscellaneous fees. All fees are contingent upon the successful closing of the financing except rating fees, estimated to be approximately $60 ,000 of the total financing costs. The rating fees were appropriated by Council in January 2025. As with the 2015 Bonds, the 2025 Bonds will be a lease revenue bond structure. Under such structure, the City’s General Fund revenues provide repayment for the financing and a physical asset is required to serve as the “Leased Asset” to further provide security for the financing. The Leased Asset will initially consist of the City’s City Hall Complex, Fire Station No. 1, and Brengle Terrace Park (exclusive of a 15-acre botanical garden therein). While the 2015 Bonds are secured by the General Fund annual pledge to appropriate from all available sources, the City originally issued, and plans to refinance, the 2015 Bonds by using the City’s Measure L revenues as a source of repayment.
Financing Documents:
Being presented for approval are the following documents:
Authorizing Resolutions: A
uthorize the Authority to issue bonds in a principal amount not to exceed $73,000,000 to refund the 2015 Bonds and authorize City and Authority staff to execute the legal documents for the 2025 Bonds, approve certain professionals and direct staff to take other actions necessary to complete financing.
Ground Lease: This is an agreement between the City and the Authority whereby t he City leases the Leased
Asset to the Authority, providing the mechanism from which the Authority may then lease the Leased Asset back to the City pursuant to the Lease Agreement.
Lease Agreement: Agreement between the Authority as lessor and the City as lessee, under which the Authority leases the Leased Asset back to the City and the City agrees to pay semiannual lease payments to provide revenues with which to pay principal and interest on the 2025 Bonds when due. The City’s General Fund will make the lease payments over the term of the Lease Agreement. The lease payments 04/08/2025

are payable by the City from any legally available source of funds; however, the City originally issued, and plans to refinance, the 2015 Bonds by using the City’s Measure L revenues.
Assignment Agreement: P
rovides the terms and conditions under which the Authority assigns the City’s lease payments to the Trustee, for ultimate payment to Bondholders.
Termination Agreement: The Termination Agreement terminates and discharges the 2015 Ground Lease, the 2015 Lease and the 2015 Assignment Agreement related to the 2015 Bonds that the City is redeeming.
Escrow Agreement: Provides the terms and conditions for the E scrow Agent to facilitate payment and
redemption of the 2015 Bonds.
Indenture of Trust: P rovides for issuance of the 2025 Bonds and lays out the covenants and specifics of the 2025 Bonds, as well as the prepayment options, Trustee’s duties, repayment mechanisms, default and remedies provisions, and Bondholder’s associated rights and remedies.
Bond Purchase Agreement: P ursuant to the Bond Purchase Agreement (BPA), the Underwriter will agree to buy the 2025 Bonds at specified prices and interest rates, subject to satisfaction of certain requirements, such as the City’s execution and delivery of the indentures and delivery of closing certificates and opinions.
The BPA will be presented to the authorized officers of the City for approval and execution on the pricing date after the Underwriter has completed the offering to the investors and the pricing of the 2025 Bonds.
Preliminary Official Statement: D isclosure Counsel prepares a Preliminary Official Statement with input from the financing team including tables relating to the City’s finances. The Preliminary Official Statement is the “offering document” for the 2025 Bonds. Under federal securities laws, the City has an obligation to ensure that the Preliminary Official Statement includes all information that would be material to a prospective investor’s decision whether to purchase the 2025 Bonds.
Following City Council
authorization, the preliminary Official Statement will be distributed by the Underwriter and used as the primary marketing document to prospective bond purchasers. The agenda packet includes a draft of the preliminary Official Statement. A final Official Statement will be made available shortly after the 2025 Bonds are sold; it will be identical to the preliminary Official Statement except that it will reflect the final bond sale pricing information. The preliminary Official Statement and the Official Statement constitute securities disclosures for the benefit of the buyers of the 2025 Bonds and are governed by federal securities laws.
Continuing Disclosure Agreement – Certificate of the City to provide annual reporting and ongoing significant events reporting.

Next Steps:
If City Council and Authority Board elect to approve the two resolutions, City staff will work with the financing team to immediately prepare the 2025 Bond transaction for a public sale. Below is a summary of the financing schedule:

Mid to Late April Release Preliminary Official Statement to Underwriter to begin marketing of 2025 Bonds to Investors
Early May, 2025
2025 Bond Order Period, Verbal Award and Execution of Bond Purchase Agreement
Mid-May, 2025 Close Financing
The City Council resolution sets forth certain parameters upon any sale of the 2025 Bonds. These parameters are: (1) the par amount of the 2025 Bonds cannot exceed $73 million, (2) the underwriter’s discount cannot exceed 0.375% of the par amount of the 2025 Bonds , and (3) the all -in true interest cost applicable to the 2025 Bonds shall not exceed 4.15%. NHA Advisors, the City’s municipal advisor , has provided good faith estimates of the cost of the 2025 Bonds, as required by California Government Code Section 5852.1. These estimates are based on current market rates and are included in Exhibit A of both the City Resolution and Authority Resolution.
Conclusion:
The City can take advantage of lower interest rates to generate significant savings for the City by lowering the annual debt service on its existing obligation through 2037.
FISCAL IMPACT: This item has no direct impact on current revenues and expenditures. Approval of this item does provide direction to staff and the City’s financing team to move the refunding of the 2015 bonds forward with an estimated closing date in mid- May 2025. Upon successful closing, given current market conditions, and Council selection of Scenario 2, total debt service savings is estimated at $11. 26 million over the next 12 fiscal years which will be reflected in subsequent Operating Budgets.

GOOD FAITH ESTIMATES
The good faith estimates set forth herein are provided with respect to the Bonds in accordance with California Government Code Section 5852.1. Such good faith estimates have been provided to the Authority by the Authority’s Municipal Advisor, NHA Advisors, LLC, in consultation with Oppenheimer & Co., Inc., the Underwriter of the Bonds.
Principal Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, based on the City’s financing plan and current market conditions, its good faith estimate of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds to be issued and sold is $68,070,000 (the “Estimated Principal Amount”), which excludes approximately $7,243,744 of net premium estimated to be generated based on current market conditions. Net premium is generated when, on a net aggregate basis for a single issuance of bonds, the price paid for such bonds is higher than the face value of such bonds. The Estimated Principal Amount plus the net premium represent the total estimated proceeds available in the aggregate amount of $75,313,744.
True Interest Cost of the Bonds . The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the true interest cost of the Bonds, which means the rate necessary to discount the amounts payable on the respective principal and interest payment dates to the purchase price received for the Bonds, is 3.30%.
Finance Charge of the Bonds. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate and expectation to purchase bond insurance at a net beneficial cost to the City (meaning the cost of the insurance premium will be less than the reduced interest cost to the City), its good faith estimate of the finance charge for the Bonds, which means the sum of all fees and charges paid to third parties (or costs associated with the Bonds), is $580,263.
Amount of Proceeds to be Received . The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the amount of proceeds expected to be received by the City for sale of the Bonds, less the finance charge of the Bonds, as estimated above, and any reserves or capitalized interest paid or funded with proceeds of the Bonds, is $74,733,481.
Total Payment Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the City that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the total payment amount, which means the sum total of all payments the City will make to pay debt service on the Bonds, plus the finance charge for the Bonds, as described above, not paid with the proceeds of the Bonds, calculated to the final maturity of the Bonds, is $91,916,167, which excludes any reserves or capitalized interest paid or funded with proceeds of the Bonds (which may offset such total payment amount).
The foregoing estimates constitute good faith estimates only and are based on market conditions prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimates. The actual principal amount of 04/08/2025

2 the Bonds issued and sold, the true interest cost thereof, the finance charges thereof, the amount of proceeds received therefrom and total payment amount with respect thereto may differ from such good faith estimates due to (a) the actual date of the sale of the Bonds being different than the date assumed for purposes of such estimates, (b) the actual principal amount of Bonds issued and sold being different from the Estimated Principal Amount, (c) the actual amortization of the Bonds being different than the amortization assumed for purposes of such estimates, (d) the actual market interest rates at the time of sale of the Bonds being different than those estimated for purposes of such estimates, (e) other market conditions, (f) alterations to the City’s financing plan, or a combination of such factors.

GOOD FAITH ESTIMATES
The good faith estimates set forth herein are provided with respect to the Bonds in accordance with California Government Code Section 5852.1. Such good faith estimates have been provided to the Authority by the Authority’s Municipal Advisor, NHA Advisors, LLC, in consultation with Oppenheimer & Co., Inc., the Underwriter of the Bonds.
Principal Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the Authority that, based on the Authority’s financing plan and current market conditions, its good faith estimate of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds to be issued and sold is $68,070,000 (the “Estimated Principal Amount”), which excludes approximately $7,243,744 of net premium estimated to be generated based on current market conditions. Net premium is generated when, on a net aggregate basis for a single issuance of bonds, the price paid for such bonds is higher than the face value of such bonds. The Estimated Principal Amount plus the net premium represent the total estimated proceeds available in the aggregate amount of $75,313,744.
True Interest Cost of the Bonds . The Municipal Advisor has informed the Authority that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the true interest cost of the Bonds, which means the rate necessary to discount the amounts payable on the respective principal and interest payment dates to the purchase price received for the Bonds, is 3.30%.
Finance Charge of the Bonds . The Municipal Advisor has informed the Authority that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate and expectation to purchase bond insurance at a net beneficial cost to the Authority (meaning the cost of the insurance premium will be less than the reduced interest cost to the Authority), its good faith estimate of the finance charge for the Bonds, which means the sum of all fees and charges paid to third parties (or costs associated with the Bonds), is $580,263.
Amount of Proceeds to be Received . The Municipal Advisor has informed the Authority that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the amount of proceeds expected to be received by the Authority for sale of the Bonds, less the finance charge of the Bonds, as estimated above, and any reserves or capitalized interest paid or funded with proceeds of the Bonds, is $74,733,481.
Total Payment Amount. The Municipal Advisor has informed the Authority that, assuming that the Estimated Principal Amount of the Bonds is issued and sold, and based on market interest rates prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimate, its good faith estimate of the total payment amount, which means the sum total of all payments the Authority will make to pay debt service on the Bonds, plus the finance charge for the Bonds, as described above, not paid with the proceeds of the Bonds, calculated to the final maturity of the Bonds, is $91,916,167, which excludes any reserves or capitalized interest paid or funded with proceeds of the Bonds (which may offset such total payment amount).
The foregoing estimates constitute good faith estimates only and are based on market conditions prevailing at the time of preparation of such estimates. The actual principal amount of 04/08/2025

2 the Bonds issued and sold, the true interest cost thereof, the finance charges thereof, the amount of proceeds received therefrom and total payment amount with respect thereto may differ from such good faith estimates due to (a) the actual date of the sale of the Bonds being different than the date assumed for purposes of such estimates, (b) the actual principal amount of Bonds issued and sold being different from the Estimated Principal Amount, (c) the actual amortization of the Bonds being different than the amortization assumed for purposes of such estimates, (d) the actual market interest rates at the time of sale of the Bonds being different than those estimated for purposes of such estimates, (e) other market conditions, (f) alterations to the Authority’s financing plan, or a combination of such factors. 04/08/2025

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 final 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 hereunder or refunded at the time of such determination.

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 calculation 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 described in said Section.

If the Authority fails to identify another qualified successor securities depository for such Series of Bonds to replace the incumbent securities depository, then the Bonds of such Series shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the Registration Books in the name of the incumbent securities depository or its nominee, but shall be registered in whatever name or names the incumbent securities depository for such Series of Bonds, or its nominee, shall designate. In such event the Authority shall execute, and deliver to the Trustee, a sufficient quantity of Bonds of such Series to carry out the transfers and exchanges provided in Sections 2.04, 2.08 and 2.09 hereof. All such Bonds of such Series shall be in fully registered form in Authorized Denominations.

The Bonds shall be dated their date of delivery, and shall have the maturities, bear interest at the rates, have reoffering yields, and be subject to redemption as shown on Exhibit A hereto.
It shall be a condition to the Authority’s obligation to sell and to deliver the Bonds to the Underwriter and to the obligation of the Underwriter to purchase, to accept delivery of and to pay for the Bonds that the entire $________________ principal amount of the Bonds as authorized by the Indenture shall be sold and delivered by the Authority and accepted and paid for by the Underwriter at the Closing.

The Bonds may be offered and sold to certain dealers at prices lower than such initial public offering prices .

The Authority and the City hereby authorizes the Underwriter to use and distribute the Ground Lease, the Lease Agreement, the Assignment Agreement, the Indenture, the Escrow Agreement and the Preliminary Official Statement, and the information contained in such documents in connection with the public offering and sale of the Bonds. The Authority and the City have authorized the use of the Preliminary Official Statement in connection with the public offering of the Bonds by the Underwriter prior to the date hereof.

The Underwriter also reserves the right to over -allot or effect transactions that stabilize or maintain the market price of the Bonds at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market and to discontinue such stabilizing, if commenced, at any time. None of such activities shall affect the principal amounts, maturity dates, interest rates, redemption or other provision of the Bonds or the amount to be paid by the Underwriter to the Authority for the Bonds.
3. Establishment of Issue Price.

All actions to be taken by the Authority under this Section to establish the issue price of the Bonds may be taken on behalf of the Authority by the Authority’s municipal advisor identified herein and any notice or report to be provided to the Authority may be provided to the Authority’s municipal advisor. (b) [Except as otherwise set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto,] [T]the Authority will treat the first price at which 10% of each maturity of the Bonds (the “10% test”) is sold to the public as the issue price of that maturity . At or promptly after the execution of this Bond Purchase Agreement, the Underwriter shall report to the Authority the price or prices at which it has sold to the public each maturity of Bonds. [ If at that time the 10% test has not been satisfied as to any maturity of the Bonds, the Underwriter agrees to promptly report to the Authority the prices at which it sells the unsold Bonds of that maturity to the public . That reporting obligation shall continue, whether or not the Closing Date has occurred, until either (i) the Underwriter has sold all Bonds of that maturity or (ii) the 10% test has been satisfied as to the Bonds of that maturity, provided that, the Underwriter’s reporting obligation after the Closing Date may be at reasonable periodic intervals or otherwise upon request of the Authority or Bond Counsel .] For purposes of this Section 3, if Bonds mature on the same date but have different interest rates, each separate CUSIP number within that maturity will be treated as a separate maturity of the Bonds.

(A) (1) to report the prices at which it sells to the public the unsold Bonds of each maturity allocated to it, whether or not the Closing Date has occurred, until either all Bonds of that maturity allocated to it have been sold or it is notified by the Underwriter that the 10% test has been satisfied as to the Bonds of that maturity, provided that, the reporting obligation after the Closing Date may be at reasonable periodic intervals or otherwise upon request of the Underwriter and (2) to comply with the hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable, if and for so long as directed by the Underwriter,
(B) to promptly notify the Underwriter of any sales of Bonds that, to its knowledge, are made to a purchaser who is a related party to an underwriter participating in the initial sale of the Bonds to the public (each such term being used as defined below), and
(C) to acknowledge that, unless otherwise advised by the dealer or broker-dealer, the Underwriter shall assume that each order submitted by the dealer or broker-dealer is a sale to the public.
