AGENDA REPORT MEETING DATE: May 24, 2011 Council Item (X ) CRA Item (X) Public Financing Authority (X ) .TITLE: Authorization to Issue Redevelopment Tax Allocation Bonds PRESENTED BY: Joyce Powers, Community and Economic Development Director RECOMMENDATION: Public Financing. Authority: Adopt the attached Resolutions establishing regular .annual meetings of the Authority and approving documents relating to the issuance of Redevelopment Tax Allocation Bonds. City Council: Adopt the attached Resolution authorizing the issuance of not to exceed $22,000,000 tax exempt (Issue 2011 A) and $7,000,000 taxable (Issue 2011 B), tax allocation bonds by the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Grand Terrace r Redevelopment Agency to finance projects. Agency: Adopt the attached Resolution authorizing the issuance and sale of not to exceed $22,000,000 tax exempt (Issue 2011 A) and $7,000,000 taxable (Issue 2011 B); tax allocation bonds by the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Grand Terrace Redevelopment Agency to finance projects. BACKGROUND: The Agency has been engaged in an ongoing review of its financial resources and opportunities to finance infrastructure construction and other redevelopment activities (non- housing). On May 10, 2011, the Agency's financing team reviewed options. with the Board and was directed to proceed with the issuance and sale of tax allocation bonds under an option that would provide the Agency with approximately $20 million in proceeds to expedite projects, while leaving approximately $850,000 in annual revenues to finance programs and operations after paying the debt service. Included in those discussions were proposed uses of the funds and whether both tax-exempt and taxable bonds should be issued. PFA/CC/CRA Item: A, B & C 1 Tax allocation bonds are the most commonly utilized financing mechanism for redevelopment agencies to fund redevelopment activities, particularly public improvements. With tax allocation bonds, future redevelopment tax increment revenue is pledged to pay the principal and interest on the Agency bonds; tax allocation bonds do not create new or increased property taxes. The risk and obligation to pay is solely with the Agency, not the City or its taxpayers, even assuming the unlikely event that the Agency defaults on the bond payments. The Agency has issued bonds in the past to raise revenues to immediately fund projects and programs, rather than to wait many years to accumulate sufficient funds for such purposes. The interest portion of the payments on tax-exempt bond proceeds is exempt from State and Federal taxes and would be used for public infrastructure improvements; taxable bond proceeds may be used for a broader range of activities including property acquisition and other programs. For example, if the Agency purchases property with the intent to resell it for public-private partnership development rather than to retain it for public facilities, this activity would be an appropriate use of taxable bond proceeds, but would not be suitable for the use of tax-exempt bonds. The public infrastructure improvements which have been discussed include: • The southwest area of the City east of 1-215, between De Berry and Pico Streets; • Michigan Street between Barton Road and Main Street; • Storm drain and street rehabilitation on Van Buren; Pico, and Main Streets; and • Stabilization of the Mt. Vernon slope. Staff anticipates completing these projects within approximately three years, including community meetings to discuss recommendations from the City's residents. DISCUSSION: Grand Terrace Public Financing Authority: On December 13, 1990, the City Council and Agency formed a Public Financing Authority, which is authorized to purchase bonds issued by the City or Agency and to sell the bonds to public or private purchasers. When the Financing Authority was established, a regular meeting schedule was not set. Under Senate Bill 99/Chapter 557 (Statutes of 2009), a Financing Authority must establish regular annual meeting dates and may only authorize any issuance of bonds during a regular meeting of the Authority. The Agency's Special Counsel has prepared the attached Resolution of the Public Financing Authority (Attachment 1) establishing regular annual meetings to be held at 6:00 p.m. the fourth Tuesday of May of each year, beginning with May 24, 2011. Staff is recommending approval of this Resolution as the first business item related to the approval to issue the tax allocation bonds. A second Resolution of the Authority (Attachment 2), if adopted, approves the documents necessary for the issuance of Redevelopment Tax Allocation Bonds as follows: • Issue 2011 A, tax-exempt bonds not to exceed $22,000,000; and • Issue 2011 B, taxable bonds not to exceed $7,000,000. Due to the fluid conditions within financial markets, the final structuring of a bond may be subject to modification based on conditions on the date of closing, including interest rates. The amounts listed above would, be the maximum authorized, and the actual. amount of bonds issued may be less or equal to the amount authorized. The amount issued will not exceed the amounts for which Agency approval is requested without further specific action by the Agency. The financing team anticipates a coverage ratio of up to 1.48, allowing $850,000 in available funds per year above the Agency's obligations. A coverage ratio of 1.48 would mean that the Agency's projected annual tax increment revenue would be at least 1.48 times the annual debt service (payments) on the bond amount actually issued. Based on market conditions when this report was written, this coverage ratio allows for the following: • Issue 2011A (tax-exempt for infrastructure) would be for approximately $15,000,000, with net proceeds of approximately $13,300,000 after reserves are established and costs of issuance are paid. • Issue 2011 B (taxable) would be for approximately $5,600,000, with net proceeds of approximately$5,000,000. It is anticipated that bonds would be issued by the Agency, sold to the Grand Terrace Public Financing Authority and immediately resold to the underwriter, Wedbush Securities, which would, in turn, handle the marketing and sale of the bonds on a public basis. By utilizing this structure, the Agency would be in a position to respond quickly to market conditions by i- closing the sale to the Public Financing Authority at the most preferred interest rate, and would immediately receive the proceeds. City Council Action: Attachment 3 is a Resolution of the City Council approving the issuance of the tax allocation bonds described above by the Agency. It also authorizes the City Manager to execute such documents and certificates necessary to issue the bonds. The City Council would also approve a technical amendment to the Joint Powers Agreement designating the City Clerk at Secretary of the Authority. The 1990 Agreement designated the Deputy City Clerk as the Secretary. Agency action: Attachment 4 is a Resolution of the Agency approving the documents and their execution relating to the issuance and sale of the 2011 tax allocation bonds. The Agency would also approve a technical amendment to the Joint Powers Agreement designating the City Clerk at Secretary of the Authority. The 1990 Agreement designated the Deputy City Clerk as the Secretary. FISCAL IMPACT: The fiscal impact would be in the amount of approximately $31 to $45 million in future Agency tax increment revenues to secure immediate funds in the amount of approximately $18-$22 million (net proceeds). Future debt payments of approximately of $1.6 to $2 million would be appropriated from the Agency's Debt Service Fund between the fiscal years 2011-12 and 2033-34, based on the debt service schedule included in the official statement. Based on the financial projections that have been prepared by Agency consultants, the Agency will receive sufficient tax increment revenues to meet all existing obligations and make debt payments. Without the additional debt, not only would the Agency, not collect the additional projected property tax revenue, the community would not receive funds necessary to complete the local projects.

OPTIONS FOR REDEVELOPMENT FINANCING CRA AGENDA ITEM NO. Community Redevelopment Agency Minutes May 10,2011 Page 2 Sylvia Robles,23008 Orangewood Court,feels that she as a taxpayer doesn't want City Staff to lie to her or the public. When they say there is not an increase to the tax payer,yes there is. There is only one stream of property tax revenue that runs through the State and when that sets the valuations being diverted and it doesn't go to pay for schools,police or fire any longer it creates a gap and that is where the State is struggling right now. There is a gap in financing that can not be closed. She stated that we are all paying higher taxes that the State Legislature is fighting amongst themselves whether to increase or not. When the Finance Director says that the State is robbing the City, she stated that they aren't robbing the City, they allowed local government to have money that use to go to schools so that we could be more solvent. When they took it away it was because they could not meet that debt themselves. 630 million dollars in assessed valuation goes into RDA. She is concerned that there will be junk bonds that will be floated and that the City is not waiting appropriately to see what the State Legislature is going to do. She questioned why the City didn't look at 1911 Act or 1913 Act as a method of financing streets and highways and also assessment districts for infrastructure. She feels that the business can come and if they want to build capital they can do it. Walgreen's is being done by private investment. The most concern that she has is transparency. There are things like Michigan and the South West Corridor and she feels that the tax payers deserve a right to know in detail what it is that the City is going to spend taxpayer money on. Also the lack of underwriting is very problematic to her because if you are going to get an insurance policy and it's not going to be underwritten then you are skirting bond counsel and what the market is going to bear. From what she has heard the market does not want to finance RDA funds. She feels that the City needs to tred very cautiously. She feels that the most important thing is transparency to the citizens on how money is going to be expended and to proceed with caution. RDA is going to be reformed then the citizens get to vote on what we go into debt for. This is what the country was founded on taxation with representation. Mark Huebsche,bond Counsel,feels that Mrs.Robles' statement is of political philosophy. He feels that there is clearly a large benefit to the community at approximately 3 times the share of property taxes if Redevelopment is implemented. CRA-2011-30 MOTION BY AGENCY MEMBER MCNABOE, SECOND BY AGENCY MEMBER SANDOVAL,CARRIED 5-0,to approve scenario number one which is as follows: The First Scenario assumes that the Agency will deposit funds on hand(i.e.,available cash balance of$1.6 million) and the existing 2004 reserve fund held by the bond fiscal agent (approximately $1.3 million) to retire the outstanding 2004 bonds maturing September 1, 2012. The scenario would result in a bond issue of approximately $23 million. After issuance costs and reserve requirements, the Agency would have net proceeds of approximately $20 million. The bonds would have a debt service coverage factor of 1.40, meaning that the Agency's annual tax Community Redevelopment Agency Minutes May 10,2011 Page 3 increment is projected to be 1.40 times larger than the amount of the annual debt service payments.

Agency 1. Adopt the attached Agency Resolution approving the x, Sale of 12569 Michigan Street to Habitat for Humanity San Bernardino Area, Inc. for $1.00 to construct two affordable residences. 2. Approve the attached Purchase and Sale Agreement, and Grant Deed and Affordability Covenant for signature by the Chairman. BACKGROUND: The Agency's Low- to Moderate-Income Housing Fund purchased the 0.5 acre (approximately 22,000 square feet) parcel at 12569 Michigan Street from the City on March 8, 2011, to develop affordable housing. The parcel is within a residential zoning district and requires a minimum lot size of 7,000 square feet for each residence. After receiving the Agency Board's direction, staff has been working with Habitat for Humanity San Bernardino Area Inc. to determine their interest in developing two or three homes under their self-help housing program. They are very interested in a Grand Terrace project for 2012, and are reviewing the related documents attached to this report. Habitat's Board of Directors will have met on May 19, 2011 to discuss CRA/CC Item: 2 approval of the Grand Terrace project. A board member will attend the Agency meeting to address the Agency Board. DISCUSSION: The sale or lease of real property owned by the Agency requires a public hearing be held. If the property has been purchased with tax increment funds, action by the City Council is also required. According to Health and Safety Code Section 33433, a,report determining that the sales price is not less than the estimated fair market value is not required if the City Council adopts a resolution exempting small housing projects. Construction of affordable housing is exempt from prevailing wage requirements, which is a requirement for other project types if the real property is sold for less than the fair market value. The City Attorney has prepared a Resolution of the City Council (Attachment 1) finding that this project is exempt from Section 33433. Health and Safety Code Section 33013 defines a small housing project and requires that the units (not more than four) be conveyed to persons or families of low and moderate income or to private parties to develop low to moderate residential structure(s) subject to affordable deed restrictions. An Agency Resolution (Attachment 2) has also been prepared for Agency review. The the sale of the roe to Habitat for Humanity through a Resolution approvesp p property ty g Purchase and Sale Agreement (Exhibit "A" to the Agency. Resolution) and a Grant Deed and Affordability Covenant (Exhibit "B" to the Agency Resolution). The documents state that the sale is subject to the following terms: 1. One residence constructed on the property must be sold to and occupied by a very low income person or family for a period of 45 years; 2. One residence constructed on the property shall be sold to and occupied by either a low or very low income person or family for a period of 45 years; 3. Breach of the affordability covenant will result in an automatic reversion of ownership to the Agency; 4. Habitat shall construct two residences on the property on or before June 30, 2014, or property ownership shall revert to the Agency; and, 5. Section 2.4 of the.Purchase and Sale Agreement states that Habitat shall give , preference to qualified buyers who are residents of the City of Grand Terrace. The Grand Deed and Affordability Covenant will be recorded by the County.recorder and will run with the land. Any future change of ownership when the homes are completed would not release the covenant. The homes are built by volunteers and Habitat requires a minimum of 500 volunteer hours from the selected families for their "sweat equity" down payment. The sales price of $1.00 keeps development costs down, and Habitat will be seeking contributions for I materials as well as volunteer labor. Staff recommends that the City and Agency approve the attached recommended documents and partner with Habitat for Humanity San Bernardino, Inc. to complete this .project. The two residences will assist the City and Agency in meeting their affordable housing requirements. According to the State's Regional Housing Needs Assessment, the City must accommodate 27 additional affordable units by 2014. FISCAL IMPACT: Costs incurred by the Agency include staff and City Attorney time, and the purchase of the property with $132,000 from the Agency's Low to Moderate Income Housing Fund. This amount will not be recovered and is considered a contribution to the project. Respectfully submitted: Aoyc6 Powers Community and Economic Development Director Manager Approval: Betsy .

BACKGROUND: The California Identification System (CAL-ID) is the automated system maintained by the Department of Justice for retaining fingerprint files and identifying latent fingerprints. The San Bernardino CAL-ID Consortium was formed in 1986 in partnership with the County of Riverside under the Penal Code 11112.1-11112.7. Currently the Riverside/San Bernardino CAL-ID regional system is one of the largest in the state. Its function is to manage the processing of all fingerprint transactions generated from county booking facilities and-. police departments. It is also responsible for the management of the Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) used county wide. Grand Terrace joined the Cal-ID Consortium in May 1986. DISCUSSION: The CAL-ID system provides DNA and AFIS (Automated Fingerprint Identification System) services. This is conducted by the contracted County Sheriffs through latent fingerprint identification, ten print identification and DNA casework. The cost for service will be billed annually based on the fees established by the Remote Access Network Board. In San Bernardino County the cost of the service is allocated on the basis of population ($1.05 per capita). FISCAL IMPACT: The annual cost incurred for CAL-ID services will be $13,500 and is included in the Fiscal Year 2011-12 budget under the account number 10-400-258.

Adams, City Manager RECOMMENDATION: Receive presentation on the General Fund Financial Sustainability Model and discuss implications for Fiscal Year 2011-12 operating budget. BACKGROUND: On April 12, 2011,.as a result of the Governor's proposed elimination of redevelopment agencies, the City and Agency retained the services of Rosenow Spevacek Group, Inc. (RSG) to prepare a General Fund Financial Sustainability Model which includes a forecast of revenues and expenditures. The focus of the 20-year forecast is the City's ability to meet ongoing General Fund operational costs, coupled with the.potential loss of economic development tools if redevelopment agencies are eliminated. RSG has completed the model and will present this forecast to the City. DISCUSSION: RSG's forecast for the first year, Fiscal Year (FY) 2011-12, is consistent with the proposed operating budget projection of a General Fund revenue shortfall of approximately 10 percent (roughly $500,000). The forecast for subsequent years worsens and for this reason the General Fund Financial Sustainability Model is being presented in advance of the proposed operating budget for FY 2011-12, which will presented at the June 14,Council Meeting. RSG projects that the General Fund revenue shortfall will grow, and significantly over time, for the following reasons 1. General Fund has a structural deficit, meaning that General Fund expenses exceed revenues each and every year. 2. General Fund expenditures are projected to grow at a higher rate than revenues. The cost of contract law enforcement services is the specific challenge as it represents the single largest General Fund expenditure with annual costs projected COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO.BA 1 GF Financial 5ustainability Model Page 2 to grow by 6 percent compared to General Fund revenues estimated to grow 2 to 3 percent annually. 3. General Fund structural deficit will grow larger each year. In FY 2015-16, the City could face a fiscal crisis once all cash reserves are depleted and the annual General Fund deficit exceeds $1 million, unless changes are made. 4. Governor's proposal to eliminate redevelopment, if it comes to fruition, would compound the fiscal challenges of the General Fund in two ways. Several positions are partially funded by the Agency in order to implement redevelopment projects. Without redevelopment, the General Fund would have to assume some of these salary expenditures. Further, some activities funded by the Agency could not be maintained by the General Fund, such as road improvement projects. The history of Grand Terrace's incorporation on the City's website indicates that a County Supervisor, at the time, voiced concern on whether the community would have a sufficient tax base to support services. Less than a year after the City incorporated, it established a redevelopment agency and ultimately expanded the project area to encompass the entire City limits. While the Agency brings in more than 2 '/2 times the amount of property taxes into Grand Terrace than what the City would otherwise collect, the fact that the City has relied on redevelopment funds to assist in the operation of the City (now amounting to one-fifth of the total General Fund) indicates that the City's structural deficit problems have been evident for decades but masked by the use of redevelopment funds to cover the shortfalls that have been present. The City provides a number of services for the community which are discretionary and which the General Fund is no longer able to fiscally sustain. The cost of mandatory services provided by the General Fund amount to approximately $3.0 million today, with contract law enforcement services comprising approximately 70 percent of the cost. Discretionary costs include items such as community events, non-patrol law enforcement, and many other services and programs. Expenditure reductions alone will not solve the General Fund's long-term fiscal challenges. At some point in the future, service levels could be reduced so low that they could be below what unincorporated communities receive from the County. The City needs to examine now how to generate additional revenues, especially once redevelopment ends (either naturally as planned in 2034, or as soon as this year if eliminated by the Governor). Grand Terrace's fiscal challenges are similar to those faced by many cities in California. Fortunately,the City's small staff size does not create the pension challenges discussed in the press, nor is the City saddled with insurmountable debts that have caused some cities to consider vacating new city halls to reduce costs. Instead, Grand Terrace is a city which has tried for decades to be a full-service city, providing a number of discretionary programs and services despite the fact it does not have sufficient revenues to support these, even with redevelopment. The Council needs to begin addressing these fiscal challenges through a comprehensive effort involving budget GF Financial Sustainability Model Page 3 reductions, organizational realignment to ensure efficient and effective delivery of services the City continues to provide, and revenue enhancements through economic development and potentially a tax measure, or the City may be headed towards insolvency. FISCAL IMPACT: The proposed FY 2011-12 operating budget will be presented to Council on June 14. It will include recommendations to avoid a General Fund deficit in the upcoming fiscal year including significant reductions in discretionary services and service levels in general. Reductions alone may not be sufficient to address the totality of the growing General Fund in subsequent years. As a result, the Council may need to consider reducing discretionary services further. The cost to prepare the General Fund Financial Sustainability Model was $25,000 which was appropriated on April 12, 2011 from the CRA Debt Service Fund (33) to account number 33-140-250.

CALIFORNIA AGENDA REPORT MEETING DATE: May 24, 2011 Council Item (X) CRA Item ( ) TITLE: Approval of Sewer User Billing System Review and Potential � Ordinance Revisions. PRESENTED BY: Richard Shields, Director of Building and Safety/Public Works RECOMMENDATION: 1. Approve the attached Professional Service Agreement between the City and Black&Veatch Management Consulting. 2. Approve appropriation of$31,920 from the available equity in the Wastewater Disposal Fund (21) to Professional Services, Account No. 21-175-255. BACKGROUND: On or about September 26, 1980 the City entered into a Settlement Agreement and an amendment to the original Service Agreement with the City of Colton granting the City the right to deliver 1.6 million gallons per day (MGD) of wastewater through the sanitary sewer system to Colton's treatment plant. The City is responsible for maintenance, upgrades and any new regulations mandated by the Federal and State laws relating to the sanitary sewer system. The City has four (4) main sanitary wastewater connections to Colton's wastewater lines that transfer flows to Colton's treatment plant. On February 26, 2004 City Council approved Ordinance No. 209, establishing the latest sewer user charges for all building types. DISCUSSION: Over the years new and infill development has increased, the wastewater flows to Colton's treatment plant. In a recent study performed by the City, wastewater was monitored for one week to determine flows to Colton's treatment plant. The average daily flow is approximately 1.54 MGD and a weekend flow of approximately 1.52 MGD. With future developrment on the horizon, the City needs to negotiate additional capacity in Colton's treatment plant. COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. 1 Similar to other small sewer agencies, the City is a collection only system with treatment performed by the City of Colton. The City of Colton has contacted Staff regarding our maximum wastewater flows to the treatment plant and the possibility of a future rate increase. On March 24, 2011 a Request for Proposal (RFP) was advertised and titled, °Sewer User Billing System Review and Ordinance Revision" On April 28, 2011 there were three (3) RFP's submitted for review. On May 10th and 11th, Staff conducted interviews with the firms. The interview panel was made up of two City Staff and a consultant who currently manages the City of Colton Treatment Plant, G and G Environmental. The RFP requested research in the following areas of the City's Wastewater facility. 1. Review the City's existing sewer user billing models and develop recommendations for the functional costs components. 2. Review the City's historic revenues and expenses for major discrepancies and perform a detailed review of the collection and treatment charges for the City. 3. Present revisions to the City's Municipal Code Chapter 4 and 13 based on the City of Colton's adopted Wastewater Collection and Treatment System Ordinance. 4. Coordinate with City Staff any proposed sewer user rate increase consistent with P<<_ Ir!j r"rop 26. 5. Act as -ity's project manager providing administrative and technical support on sewer collection and treatment studies and activities. Wastewater . a specialized field that needs expert analysis. The City wastewater system must be studied to determine future maintenance needs, capital improvement needs ar!J depreciation of the system. The cost of wastewater treatment must be revie rued to da-tirmine if charges to the City are reasonable and in line with current rate practices. The City received three (3) RFP's from: • Raftelis Financial Consultant, Incorporated, $40,338 • Black &Veatch Management Consulting, $31,920 • Lynn Merrill, Consulting to Municipal Governments, $12,500 After careful consideration, the review panel chose Black & Veatch Management Consulting because of its extensive experience and knowledge of municipal utility operations, specifically water and wastewater rate structuring and its experience with treatment plant operations. The low bid from Lynn Merrill, who is currently providing consulting services for the City on its energy grant, was not chosen. The panel determined that his proposal lacked the specialized expertise in treatment plant operations and the wastewater treatment process needed by the City. Raftelis Financial r,,, etir 73_.1 A0Vi[v?A Consultant was very knowledgeable, however the costs for the service was higher than Black &Veatch who will provide the same service. FISCAL IMPACT: The Wastewater Disposal Fund (21) currently has projected equity of approximately $1,563,600 through fiscal year 2010-11. An appropriation of $31,920 would be made from the available equity in the Wastewater Disposal Fund (21) and would increase the budget in Professional Services account 21-175-255.

Review the City's historical revenues and expenses for major discrepancies and perform a detailed review of the collection and treatment charges for the City. Review the City's strength charges applied to commercial and industrial customers. Present revision to the City's Municipal Code Chapter 4 and 13 based on the City of Colton's adopted Wastewater Collection and Treatment System Ordinance. Coordinate with City staff and City's solid waste franchise provider any proposed sewer user rate increase consistent with Prop 218 and Prop 26. Act as the City's project manager providing administrative and technical support on requested sewer collection and treatment studies and activities. Similar to other small sewer agencies,the City is a collection only system with treatment performed by the City of Colton.As a result,the City is subject to the City of Colton rate and charge increases,which must be pass-through to the City customers.Based on the current rate structure,the City charges a flat rate to its residential customers and a uniform usage rate based on water used to its commercial and industrial customers.The commercial and industrial rate is based on sewer strength characteristics.In addition,the City outsources its customer billing operations to Burrtec Waste Industries for residential users and Riverside Highland Water District for commercial users. 7 City of Grand Terrace,CA I Project Approach METHODOLOGY Black&Veatch bases its methodology on the fundamental principle of first understanding the needs and priorities,recognizing the evolving nature of the sewer utility,and then developing a holistic,yet flexible solution aligned with meeting the City's defined needs and stated objectives. The key components of the methodology consist of the following: Basis of Billing.The basis of billing will take into consideration the functional aspects of sewer system operations and cost components such as volume and strength.The analysis will evaluate the existing functional costs components and recommend adjustments relative to the load placed on the system by the different user classes. Financial Plan.Rates and charges should generate adequate revenues to meet the operating and capital costs.The assessment will be conducted by taking into consideration different assumptions related to growth, revenue,and expenses. The methodology depicts the process at a high level in Figure 1.

Adopt the attachment Resolution ordering the City Engineer to prepare plans, specifications, cost estimates, diagrams and assessment reports, (Engineer's Report). 2. Adopt attached Resolution approving Engineer's Report. 3. Adopt attached Resolution of Intentions. BACKGROUND: In 1989 the City Council required developers to form an Assessment District for r the purpose of maintaining the landscaping and lighting as required by the conditions of approval. Subsequently, two other developments were required to be included in this program. The developments were annexed to the original Assessment District as Annexation No. 1. The 89-1 District boundaries of the Landscape and Lighting Assessment District are the boundaries of Tract 13364, filed in Map Book 203, pages 89 through 92, records of San Bernardino County. The boundaries of Annexation No. 1 are the boundaries of Tract 14264 and 14471, filed in Map Book 242, pages 17 and 28 and Map Book 237, page 41 and 42 respectively of said County. DISCUSSION: Each year an Engineer's Report is prepared and considered by City Council for a levy of annual assessment for maintenance and operation of the District. Assessments for each parcel are made in the same manner and at the same time as payments are made for property taxes for each Property. COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. . 1 The annual report takes into consideration costs of operation and maintenance for the previous year and the amount assessed along with projects cost of operation and maintenance for the coming fiscal year. Based on the costs and estimates, credits are given for any funds assessed over and above the cost of operation and maintenance for the costs incurred over and above the previous year. These costs are then spread to the benefitting properties. Staff has reviewed the expenditure for fiscal (2010 -2011) year, based on our best estimate, the costs of operation and maintenance should approximately equal the assessment levied and collected.

The City Council further adopted ordinances and regulations governing the development of land providing for the installation and construction of certain landscaping, lighting and appurtenant facilities to enhance the quality of life and to benefit the value of property. The requirement for the construction and installation of landscaping, lighting and appurtenant facilities is a condition of approval for development and is a requirement of issuance of a permit for the construction of any residential, commercial, industrial and planned unit development. Landscaping and appurtenant facilities generally include trees, shrubs,plants, turf, irrigation systems, and necessary appurtenances including curbs, hardscape, monumentations, fencing located in public right-of-ways, medians,parkways, and/or easements adjacent to public right-of- ways, in and along public thoroughfares and certain designated primary and secondary arterials. Lighting and appurtenant facilities includes poles, lighting fixtures, conduits and the necessary equipment to maintain, operate and replace a lighting system at designated intersections, in medians,parkways and adjacent to certain public facilities in and along certain streets,right-of- ways and designated lots. The installation of landscaping and lighting systems and the construction of the necessary appurtenant facilities is the responsibility of the property owner/applicant, as conditions of approval of a development application. The City may cause the installation by property owners directly, or accept financial arrangements for installation of these facilities. The cost of servicing, operation, maintenance, repair and replacement of the landscaping, lighting and appurtenant facilities in turn becomes the responsibility of the benefitting properties. The owners/applicants petitioned for formation of the Landscaping Lighting Assessment District and/or annexation. These have been completed, and will increase the City's obligation for maintenance and servicing. The City of Grand Terrace is administering a lighting system for the benefit of all parcels of land within the City. The lighting benefit is directly related to public safety and property protection. These benefits have been studied widely, locally, regionally and nationally. Page 2 21 The City has formed Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District 89-1 and subsequently annexed other parcels as Annexation No. 1 to said District to insure a fair and equitable levying of the necessary costs of servicing and maintenance of the respective facilities,which in turn will enhance the value of each and every parcel in the District directly and collectively.

STATE OF CALIFORNIA Page 21 4C CAL 1'FONNIA AGENDA REPORT MEETING DATE: May 24, 2011 Council Item ( X ) CRA Item ( ) TITLE: Selection Process for City Attorney Services Request for Proposal PRESENTED BY: Betsy M. Adams, City Manager RECOMMENDATION: Provide direction to staff on the selection process for the City Attorney Services Request for Proposal. BACKGROUND: On May 10, 2011, the City Council approved a proposed Request for Proposal (RFP) for City Attorney Services and directed the City Manager to issue the RFP the following day. The only change Council made on the proposed RFP was to authorize the City . Manager to extend the schedule slightly to allow adequate time for the' selection process. The RFP was issued on May 11 with responses due by 2:00 p.m. on �J Wednesday, June 8, .2011, extending the due date one week based upon Council direction. The schedule for Council interviews with selected RFP responders was changed from June 7, 2011 to "the City of Grand Terrace may invite one or more proposers to be interviewed by the City Council in June 2011 (date and time to be determined)." As of May 17, the RFP had been sent to thirteen (13) law firms or individuals. The staff report for the City Attorney Services RFP also noted that the Council would define the interview process for City Attorney services at the Council Meeting on May 28. DISCUSSION: The City Attorney Services RFP was prepared to allow the Council flexibility in the selection process. By answering a series of questions below, the Council will have determined the framework for the selection process. 1. Does the Council want to review all responses to the City Attorney Services RFP or only those which are determined to be most qualified? 2. If the Council chooses to review only the most qualified responses, does the Council want to establish a subcommittee to review all responses or delegate this review to the City Manager? 3. If the Council chooses to establish a subcommittee, who will be included (e.g. two members of Council, City Manager, any advisors selected by Council, etc.)? COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO.,O� 1 RFP for City Attorney Services May 10, 2011 Page 2 After the Council has reviewed either all the responses or the most qualified responses, the next step would be to invite one or more law firms to interview with the Council. As the hiring of a City Attorney is an employee selection, as a specific individual of a law firm would be designated to serve as the City Attorney, the Council may hold. the interviews in Closed Session. In order to allow enough time for the interview(s), the Council needs to answer the following question: 1. Does the Council wish to set either a minimum or maximum number of law firms to be interviewed? The interview process could include two components, the invited firm(s) making a presentation followed by questions from the Council. The time allowed for each component would be determined after the number of firms to be interviewed is known but will likely be 20 to 30 minutes each. Staff would provide the Council with, potential interview questions, including questions suggested by Council. After the Council has completed the interview process, a law firm will be selected and the City Manager directed to bring the agreement forward for approval at a public meeting. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact for determining the selection process for the City Attorney Services RPF. The proposed Fiscal Year (FY) 2011-12 operating budget includes $120,000 for City Attorney services funded equally between the General Fund and the . Community Redevelopment Agency, the same funding level as FY 2010-11. The Council has the discretion to adjust this budget after the finalist for the City Attorney Services RPF has been determined.

Adopt the attached Resolution confirming delinquent Non-owner Occupied/Rental Property Program fees and fines for the 2010 calendar year. 2. Authorize special assessments against the parcels listed in Exhibit"A" of the Resolution. BACKGROUND: On January 12, 2006 the Council adopted the Non-owner Occupied/Rental Property Program, and implementation of the program began on January 1, 2007. There are currently 467 rental properties (997 units) inspected annually. The City's Municipal Code Chapter 5.80, Non-owner Occupied/Rental Property Program, requires payment of annual inspection fees by owners of rental properties and authorizes reinspection fees and fines for non-compliance of noted violations. Annual fees are established as follows: Single-family home: $95.00 Per unit (1-199 apartments) $48.00 Per unit (200+ apartments) $36.00 Reinspection $47.00 (for not correcting a violation by compliance date) Municipal Code Sections 5.80.100 and 5.80.120 authorize recovery of fees through municipal tax lien procedures. DISCUSSION: There are seven property owners who have not paid the Program fees and fines for calendar year 2010, and staff is now requesting consideration of special assessments for those properties. Each property owner has received notices of annual fees and fines due and potential city actions. On May 4, 2011, notices were sent by certified mail informing each owner of the May 24, 2011 Council hearing for special assessment and liens. The purpose of the hearing is to allow the affected owners an opportunity to address the Council regarding the special assessments. COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO., 1 The owners of the following properties have failed to pay accrued fees, penalties, and/or fines: Assessor's Property Address Amount Owing/PurPo se Parcel Number 0276-263-07 1-1822 Arliss Court $142.50 Annual inspection fee plus interest 1167-371-25 22371 Pico Street $142.50 Annual inspection fee plus interest 1178-201-17 12751 Wilmac Avenue $142.50 Annual inspection fee plus interest 1178-221-39 22558 Robin Way $142.50 Annual inspection fee plus interest 0276-191-12 22664 Minona Drive $142.50 Annual inspection fee plus interest 1167-341-29 12405 Willet Avenue $142.50, Annual inspection fee plus interest 1167-361-45 12625 Reed Avenue $189.50 Annual fee, interest, reinspection fee Staff recommends that Special Assessments totaling $1,044.50 be recorded as liens against the listed parcels and placed on the 2011-2012 tax rolls. The fees will then be collected at the same time as regular property taxes. FISCAL IMPACT: The assessments will be turned over to the Tax Collector for collection in September 2011, and would be added to the succeeding property tax billing. When collected the revenue would be appropriated to the General Fund.
