NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Redlands as
follows:
Section 1. This resolution shall constitute full "local approval," under Section 9 of the
Joint Powers Agreement, and under the Authority's Local Goals and Policies (defined below), for
the Authority to undertake and conduct proceedings in accordance herewith and under the Mello
Roos Act to form CFDs with boundaries that shall be coterminous with the City's official
boundaries of record at the time of such proceedings or any portion thereof (the "Proposed
Boundaries"), and to authorize a special tax and to issue bonds with respect thereto; provided that
the Participating Developers, who shall be the legal owners of such property at the time of
formation of the CFD, execute a written consent to the levy of special tax in connection with SCIP
by the Authority and execute a ballot in favor of the formation of such CFD and the Mello -Roos
Act.
Section 2. The City hereby consents to the conduct of special assessment proceedings by
the Authority in connection with SCIP pursuant to the 1913 Act and the issuance of Local
Obligations under the 1915 Act on any property within the Proposed Boundaries; provided, that:
(l) Such proceedings are conducted pursuant to one or more Resolutions of Intention in
substantially the form of the ROI; and

time of the formation of the Assessment District, execute a written consent to the levy of
assessments in connection with SCIP by the Authority and execute an assessment ballot in favor
of such assessment in compliance with the requirements of Section 4 of Article XIIID of the State
Constitution.
Section 3. The Joint Powers Agreement, together with the terms and provisions of this
resolution, shall together constitute a separate joint community facilities agreement between the
City and the Authority under the Mello -Roos Act for each CFD formed. As, without this
resolution, the Authority has no power to finance City Improvements (as such terms are defined
herein) in proceedings under the Act to form the CFD, adoption by the Commission of the
Authority of each Resolution of Intention to form a CFD under the Mello -Roos Act to finance City
Improvements shall constitute acceptance of the terms hereof by the Authority with respect to such
CFD.
Section 4. This resolution and the agreement it embodies are determined to be beneficial
3
I:\Resolutions\Res 8500-8599\8523 Joining Statewide Community Infiastmcture Program SCIP.docx-msv3
to the residents/customers of the City and are in the best interests of the residents of the City, and
of the future residents of the area within the proposed CFDs and Assessment Districts. The City
hereby finds and declares that the issuance of revenue bonds by the Authority to purchase Local
Obligations in connection with SCIP will provide significant public benefits, including without
limitation, savings in effective interest rate, bond preparation, bond underwriting and bond
issuance costs, and the more efficient delivery of local agency services to residential and
commercial development within the City.
Section 5. The Authority has adopted Local Goals and Policies as required by Section
53312.7 of the Mello -Roos Act. The City approves the use of those Local Goals and Policies in
connection with the formation of CFDs. The City hereby agrees that the Authority may act in lieu
of the City under those Local Goals and Policies in forming and administering the CFDs.
Section 6. The Authority has prepared and will update from time to time the "SCIP Manual
of Procedures" (the "Manual"), and the City will handle funds for Improvements for properties
participating in SCIP in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Manual.
Section 7. Pursuant to the Mello -Roos Act and this resolution, the Authority may conduct
proceedings under the Mello -Roos Act to form the CFDs and to have such CFDs authorize the
financing of any or all of the facilities set forth on Exhibit C, attached hereto. All of the facilities,
shall be facilities that have an expected useful life of five years or longer and are facilities that the
City or other local public agencies, as the case may be, are authorized by law to construct, own or
operate, or to which they may contribute revenue. Exhibit C, may be modified from time to time
by written agreement between an authorized representative of the Authority and of the City. The
facilities are referred to herein as the "Improvements," and the Improvements to be owned by the
City are referred to as the "City Improvements."
Section 8. For Fees paid or to be paid to another agency by any particular CFD (an "Other
Local Agency"), the Authority will obtain the written consent of that Other Local Agency before
issuing Local Obligations to fund such Fees, as required by the Mello -Roos Act. For the
Improvements to be owned by an Other Local Agency, the Authority will separately identify them
in its proceedings, and will enter into a joint community facilities agreement with such Other Local
Agency prior to issuing Local Obligations to finance such Improvements, as required by the Mello -
Roos Act. Each joint community facilities agreement with each Other Local Agency will contain
a provision that the Other Local Agency will provide indemnification to the City to the same extent
that the City provides indemnification to the Other Local Agency under the terms of this resolution.
Section 9. At the time of formation of each CFD, the City will certify to the Commission
of the Authority that all of the City Improvements to be funded by such CFD are necessary to meet
increased demands placed upon the City as a result of development occurring or expected to occur
within the proposed CFDs in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D. Any appropriate officer or
staff of the City is authorized to execute and deliver such certificate in substantially the form
attached hereto as Exhibit D, with such changes as such signatory shall approve. Joint community
facilities agreements with other local agencies will each contain a requirement that each Other
Local Agency will make identical certification in connection with respect to the Improvements to
be owned by, and Fees paid or to be paid to, such Other Local Agency equivalent to that made by
the City in this paragraph.

Section 10. The Authority will apply the special tax collections initially as required by the
documents under which any Local Obligations are issued; and thereafter, to the extent not provided
in the Local Obligations documents, may pay its own reasonable administrative costs incurred in
the administration of the CFDs. The Authority will remit any special tax revenues from any
particular CFD remaining after the final retirement of all related Local Obligations to the City and
to the other local agencies in the proportions specified in the Authority's proceedings. The City
will apply any such special tax revenues it receives for authorized City Improvements and its own
administrative costs only as permitted by the Mello -Roos Act. The joint community facilities
agreements with each Other Local Agency must require the Other Local Agency to apply the
special tax revenues they receive for their authorized Improvements and Fees under the CFDs and
for their own related administrative costs only as permitted by the Mello -Roos Act.
Section 11. The Authority will administer the CFDs, including employing and paying all
consultants, annually levying the special tax and all aspects of paying and administering the Local
Obligations, and complying with all State and Federal requirements appertaining to the
proceedings, including the requirements of the United States Internal Revenue Code. The City will
cooperate fully with the Authority in respect of the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and
to the extent information is required of the City to enable the Authority to perform its disclosure
and continuing disclosure obligations with respect to the Local Obligations and any revenue bonds,
although the City will not participate in nor be considered to be a participant in the proceedings
respecting the CFDs (other than as a party to the agreement embodied by this resolution) nor will
the City be or be considered to be an issuer of the Local Obligations nor any revenue bonds. The
Authority is required to obtain a provision equivalent to this paragraph in all joint community
facilities agreements with each Other Local Agency.
Section 12. In the event the Authority completes issuance and sale of Local Obligations,
and Local Obligation proceeds become available to finance the Improvements, the Authority shall
establish and maintain a special fund for each development project (the "Acquisition and
Construction Fund"). The portion of Local Obligation proceeds which is intended to be utilized
to finance the Improvements shall be deposited in the Acquisition and Construction Fund. The
Acquisition and Construction Fund will be available for City Improvements and for the
Improvements and Fees pertaining to each Other Local Agency. Subaecounts shall be created as
necessary.
Section 13. As respects the Authority and each Other Local Agency, the City agrees to
fully administer, and to take full governmental responsibility for, the construction or acquisition
of the City Improvements including but not limited to environmental review, approval of plans
and specifications, bid requirements, performance and payment bond requirements, insurance
requirements, contract and construction administration, staking, inspection, acquisition of
necessary property interests in real or personal property, the holding back and administration of
retention payments, punch list administration, and the Authority and each Other Local Agency
shall have no responsibility in that regard. The City reserves the right, as respects each
Participating Developer, to require the Participating Developer to contract with the City to assume
any portion or all of this responsibility. The Authority is required to obtain provisions equivalent
to this paragraph in the joint community facilities agreement with each Other Local Agency.

Section 14. The City agrees to indemnify and to hold the Authority, its other members,
and its other members' officers, agents and employees, and each Other Local Agency and their

claims, suits and damages (including costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of the design,
engineering, construction and installation of the City Improvements. The City reserves the right,
as respects each Participating Developer, to require the Participating Developer to assume by
contract with the City any portion or all of this responsibility. The Authority is required to obtain
a provision equivalent to this paragraph in all joint community facilities agreements with each
Other Local Agency naming the City and its officers, agents and employees as Indemnified Parties
with respect to each Other Local Agency's respective Improvements and the improvements to be
constructed or acquired with each Other Local Agency's Fees.
Section 15. As respects the Authority and each Other Local Agency, the City agrees —
once the City Improvements are constructed according to the approved plans and specifications,
and the City and the Participating Developer have put in place their agreed arrangements for the
funding ofmaintenance of the City Improvements — to accept ownership of the City Improvements,
to take maintenance responsibility for the City Improvements, and to indemnify and hold harmless
the Indemnified Parties to the extent provided in the preceding paragraph from any and all claims,
etc., arising out of the use and maintenance of the City Improvements. The City reserves the right,
as respects the Participating Developer, to require the Participating Developer by contract with the
City to assume any portion or all of this responsibility. The Authority is required to obtain a
provision equivalent to this paragraph in all joint community facilities agreements with each Other
Local Agency naming the City and its officers, agents and employees as Indemnified Parties.
Section 16. The City acknowledges the requirement of the Mello -Roos Act that if the City
Improvements are not completed prior to the adoption by the Commission of the Authority of the
Resolution of Formation of the CFD for each respective development project, the City
Improvements must be constructed as if they had been constructed under the direction and
supervision, or under the authority of, the City. The City acknowledges that this means all City
Improvements must be constructed under contracts that require the payment of prevailing wages
as required by Section 1720 and following of the Labor Code of the State of California. The
Authority makes no representation that this requirement is the only applicable legal requirement
in this regard. The City reserves the right, as respects the Participating Developer, to assign
appropriate responsibility for compliance with this paragraph to the Participating Developer.
Section 17. The form of the Acquisition Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B is hereby
approved, and the City Manager or the City Manager's designee (the "Authorized Officer") is

53313.51 of the Mello -Roos Act and in the Acquisition Agreement, to the satisfaction of the City,
and in conjunction with the City's acceptance thereof, acquisition of the City Improvements shall

requirements related to the Project, which obligations are and shall remain independent of the
Developer's and the Local Agency's rights and obligations under this Agreement.
DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION AND ACQUISITION OF ACQUISITION IMPROVEMENTS
Letting and Administering Design Contracts. The parties presently anticipate that
the Developer has awarded and administered or will award and administer engineering design
contracts for the Acquisition Improvements to be acquired from Developer. All eligible
expenditures of the Developer for design engineering and related costs in connection with the
Acquisition Improvements (whether as an advance to the Local Agency or directly to the design
consultant) shall be reimbursed at the time of acquisition of such Acquisition Improvements. The
Developer shall be entitled to reimbursement for any design costs of the Acquisition Improvements
only out of the Acquisition Price as provided in Section 2.03 and shall not be entitled to any
payment for design costs independent of or prior to the acquisition of Acquisition Improvements.
Letting and Administration of Construction Contracts; Indemnification. State law
requires that all Acquisition Improvements not completed prior to the formation of the District
shall be constructed as if they were constructed under the direction and supervision, or under the
authority, of the [Local Agency]. In order to assure compliance with those provisions, except for
any contracts entered into prior to the date hereof, Developer agrees to comply with the
requirements set forth in Exhibit C hereto with respect to the bidding and contracting for the
construction of the Acquisition Improvements. The Developer agrees that all the contracts shall
call for payment of prevailing wages as required by the Labor Code of the State of California. The
Developer's indemnification obligation set forth in Section 3.01 of this Agreement shall also apply
to any alleged failure to comply with the requirements of this Section, and/or applicable State laws
regarding public contracting and prevailing wages.
B-6
4148-5881-6816.1
Sale of Acquisition Improvements. The Developer agrees to sell to the [Local
Agency] each Acquisition Improvement to be constructed by Developer (including any rights -of -
way or other easements necessary for the Acquisition Improvements, to the extent not already
publicly owned), when the Acquisition Improvement is has been constructed and is complete to
the satisfaction of the Local Agency for an amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) the Available
Amount or (ii) the Actual Cost of the Acquisition Improvement. Exhibit A, attached hereto and
incorporated herein, contains a list of the Acquisition Improvements. Portions of an Acquisition
Improvement eligible for Installment Payments prior to completion of the entire Acquisition
Improvement are described as eligible, discrete and usable portions in Exhibit A (each, an "Eligible
Portion"). At the time of completion of each Acquisition Improvement, or Eligible Portion thereof,
the Developer shall deliver to the Local Agency Engineer a written request for acquisition,
accompanied by an Actual Cost Certificate, and by executed Title Documents for the transfer of
the Acquisition Improvement where necessary. In the event that the Local Agency Engineer finds
that the supporting paperwork submitted by the Developer fails to demonstrate the required
relationship between the subject Actual Cost and eligible work, the Local Agency Engineer shall
advise the Developer that the determination of the Actual Cost (or the ineligible portion thereof)
has been disallowed and shall request further documentation from the Developer. If the further
documentation is still not adequate, the Local Agency Engineer may revise the Actual Cost
Certificate to delete any disallowed items and the determination shall be final and conclusive.
Certain soft costs for the Acquisition Improvements, such as civil engineering, may have
been incurred pursuant to single contracts that include work relating also to the private portions of
the Project. In those instances, the total costs under such contracts will be allocated to each
Acquisition Improvement as approved by the Local Agency Engineer. Where a specific contract
has been awarded for design or engineering work relating solely to an Acquisition Improvement,
one hundred percent (100%) of the costs under the contract will be allocated to that Acquisition
Improvement. Amounts allocated to an Acquisition Improvement will be further allocated among
the Eligible Portions of that Acquisition Improvement, if any, in the same proportion as the amount
to be reimbursed for hard costs for each Eligible Portion bears to the amount to be reimbursed for
hard costs for the entire Acquisition Improvement. Costs will be allocated to each Acquisition
Improvement as approved by the Local Agency Engineer. The costs of certain environmental
mitigation required to mitigate impacts of the public and private portions of the Project will be
allocated to each Acquisition Improvement as approved by the Local Agency Engineer.
In the event that the Actual Cost is in excess of the Available Amount, the Local Agency
shall withdraw the Available Amount from the Acquisition Account and transfer said amount to
the Developer. In the event that the Actual Cost is less than the Available Amount, the Local
Agency shall withdraw an amount from the Acquisition Account equal to the Actual Cost, and
shall transfer said amount to the Developer. Any amounts then remaining in the Acquisition
Account shall be applied as provided in Section 1.03.
In no event shall the Local Agency be required to pay the Developer more than the amount
on deposit in the Acquisition Account at the time such payment is requested.
Conditions Precedent to Payment of Acquisition Price. Payment to the Developer
or its designee of the Acquisition Price for an Acquisition Improvement from the Acquisition and
Construction Fund shall in every case be conditioned first upon the determination of the Local
B-7
4148-5881-6816.1
Agency Engineer, pursuant to Section 2.03, that the Acquisition Improvement satisfies all Local
Agency regulations and ordinances and is otherwise complete and ready for acceptance by the
Local Agency, and shall be further conditioned upon satisfaction of the following additional
conditions precedent:
The Developer shall have provided the Local Agency with lien releases or other
similar documentation satisfactory to the Local Agency Engineer as evidence that none of the
property (including any rights -of -way or other easements necessary for the operation and
maintenance of the Acquisition Improvement, to the extent not already publicly owned)
comprising the Acquisition Improvement, and the property which is subject to the
[assessments/Special Taxes] of the District, is not subject to any prospective mechanics lien claim
respecting the Acquisition Improvements.
All due and payable property taxes, and installments of [assessments/Special
Taxes] shall be current on property owned by the Developer or under option to the Developer that
is subject to the lien of the District.
The Developer shall certify that it is not in default with respect to any loan secured
by any interest in the Project.
The Developer shall have provided the Local Agency with Title Documents needed
to provide the Local Agency with title to the site, right-of-way, or easement upon which the subject
Acquisition Improvements are situated. All such Title Documents shall be in a form acceptable to
the Local Agency (or applicable governmental agency) and shall convey Acceptable Title. The
Developer shall provide a policy of title insurance as of the date of transfer in a form acceptable
to the Local Agency Engineer insuring the Local Agency as to the interests acquired in connection
with the acquisition of any interest for which such a policy of title insurance is not required by
another agreement between the Local Agency and the Developer. Each title insurance policy
required hereunder shall be in the amount equal to or greater than the Acquisition Price.
SCIP Requisition. Upon a determination by the Local Agency Engineer to pay the
Acquisition Price of the Acquisition Improvements pursuant to Section 2.04, the Local Agency
Engineer shall cause a SCIP Requisition to be submitted to the Program Administrator. The
Program Administrator will review the SCIP Requisition and forward it with instructions to the
SCIP Trustee and the SCIP Trustee shall make payment directly to the Developer of such amount
pursuant to the SCIP Trust Agreement. The Local Agency and the Developer acknowledge and
agree that the SCIP Trustee shall make payment strictly in accordance with the SCIP Requisition
and shall not be required to determine whether or not the Acquisition Improvements have been
completed or what the Actual Costs may be with respect to such Acquisition Improvements. The
SCIP Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the SCIP Requisition on its face without any further duty
of investigation.
