BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS California Government Code §53607 requires the CFO/Treasurer of a public agency to submit a monthly investment transaction report to the Board when the Board has delegated to the CFO/Treasurer the authority to invest, reinvest, sell, or exchange securities held in the Agency’s investment portfolio. During October the District had $6.07 million in funds invested with LAIF, and $5.9 million invested with Citizens Business Bank Wealth Management (CBB). Interest earned for the quarter ended September 30th was deposited into LAIF in October; there were no other deposits into, or withdrawals from LAIF during the month. No securities held by CBB matured during October, but the investment manager did add a US Treasury Note and four federally backed agency bonds to the District portfolio. Attached hereto, for the Board’s review, is the October LAIF Statement and a summary of investment activity in the CBB account for the month ended October 31, 2021.

BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS Since March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has required new levels of flexibility and adaptability. The District continues to adjust operations to incorporate additional safety procedures and social distancing practices consistent with local health official guidance. In 2020, the District declared a local state of emergency, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the impacts that it had on the ability to safely serve the public. Maintaining the health and safety of staff and the public while continuing to provide world class services remains a top priority. State and federal officials have called for individuals to stay at home whenever possible to slow the spread of COVID-19. As part of this effort the State of California included the declaration of a statewide emergency and the issuance of an executive order to suspend portions of the Ralph M. Brown Act location noticing requirements, easing the ability for public agencies to hold virtual, or teleconference, meetings. This adjustment allows for continued public engagement in the policy making process, while allowing for social distancing. Since executive orders are only valid for a maximum of 180 days, this process was only allowed temporarily. The advancement of hosting platforms for virtual meetings that are easily accessible to the public have greatly improved over the last year. Given the broad range of emergencies that can occur in California, the maintenance of government transparency through virtual meetings has emerged as a long-term response measure. AB 361 codified the ability for government agencies to hold virtual meetings in the event of a declared emergency in order to continue conducting official business. The allowance of teleconference meeting in place of an “in-person” setting applies in emergencies like public health that require social distancing, earthquake, wildfire, and other natural or manmade emergencies. When an agency needs to implement teleconference meetings, they Governing Board must adopt a Resolution of Findings and Determinations. Agenda Item #2e December 8, 20212 2 4 4 Meeting Date: December 8, 2021 Agenda Item #2e Consent Item Given the on-going call to slow the spread of COVID-19, there is a health and safety needs to maintain virtual meetings as allowed by law for the next 30 days. If a need exists beyond that point in time a new resolution would be presented to the Governing Board for consideration for each 30-day period after that. Notice of meetings and posted agendas would continue to contain information which allow members of the public to access the meeting and address the Board of Directors and offer public comment including an opportunity for all persons to attend via a call-in option or an internet-based service option. Staff is requesting that the Board adopt a Resolution of Findings and Determinations to utilize the protocols allowed by AB 361.

The Governor has proclaimed a state of emergency on March 24, 2020 which continues. SECTION 2. The Governor and local officials have promoted the use of social distancing as a method to abate the spread of COVID-19 within the community. The Board of Directors finds that conducting in person meetings of the EVWD Board of Directors would be inimical to social distancing and would present imminent risks to the health or safety of the attendees and conducting meetings by teleconference would diminish that risk. SECTION 3. The Board of Directors will continue to conduct Board meetings by teleconference in compliance with Government Code 54953(e) until such time as the Governor has terminated the state of emergency and the risk to health and safety of meeting attendees is sufficiently diminished or as otherwise required by law. Notice of meetings and posted agendas will contain information which allow members of the public to access the meeting and address the Board of Directors and offer public comment including an opportunity for all persons to attend via a call-in option or an internet-based service option. SECTION 4. This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption and shall be effective for 30 days or until such time as the Board of Directors adopts a subsequent resolution in accordance with Government Code 54953(e)(3) to extend the time during which meetings of the Board of Directors may be conducted by teleconference without compliance with Government Code 54953(3)(b).

John Mura, Secretary, Board of Directors Agenda Item #3a December 8, 20211 2 5 6 Meeting Date: December 8, 2021 Agenda Item #3a Discussion Item Regular Board Meeting TO: Governing Board Members FROM: General Manager/CEO SUBJECT: Consider Approval of Sterling Natural Resource Center Operations Support Services Agreement RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of Directors authorize the General Manager/CEO to execute a Professional Services Agreement for Sterling Natural Resource Center (SNRC) Operational Support Services with Anaergia Technologies, LLC. for an estimated annual cost of $2,240,312.33 for 5-years with two optional 2-year extensions. BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS In preparation for the Operations of the SNRC, staff solicited a proposal from Anaergia Technologies to provide operational support of the SNRC related to the solids processes and importing of high strength organics. Anaergia operates a similar facility in Rialto and has the ability to leverage existing contracts and supply chains to obtain bulk pricing for many of the organic materials needed for energy generation. Anaergia is an industry leader in renewable energy from solid waste treatment and EVWD has partnered with Anaergia to build the solids treatment systems at the SNRC. Staff negotiated with Anaergia to develop an operations support agreement to provide all consumables (chemicals, gas treatment media, etc.), maintenance services, and sourcing of high strength organic materials for delivery to the facility. The agreement is comprised of: Pass through costs for consumables and services that will be passed directly through to the District at no markup; Maintenance service fees that are aggregated and charged per operating hour of the equipment; Service management fee to cover administrative costs related to the services performed as part of the agreement; Feed stock management fee that is scalable to encourage Anaergia to procure and deliver enough high strength organics to produce 3.0 megawatt of power. Due to the recently observed market volatility, adjustments in high strength waste generators production capacity, and unknowns regarding sludge quality, guaranteed pricing was not pursued in these negotiations. Instead, estimated pricing is included in Agenda Item #3a December 8, 20212 2 5 6 Meeting Date: December 8, 2021 Agenda Item #3a Discussion Item the proposed agreement. The estimated pricing includes a 20% contingency for direct pass-through costs and service fees to account for future market increases. As the SNRC starts operations and testing can be performed, staff intends to request guaranteed long-term pricing in future agreements.

BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS The District maintains an active Grant Strategy, to evaluate and pursue potential funding sources. This collaborative process maintains consistency in project priorities as included in various planning documents. Most recently, the 2021 Urban and Multibenefit Drought Relief Grant Program presented an opportunity to assist with funding critical infrastructure. As identified in the 2019 Water System Master Plan, the District has a need for increased water supply capabilities due to wells being taking offline over the past 10 years for water quality considerations. This need identified in the Master Plan assumes meeting the Maximum Day Demand with the largest water source (Plant 134) out of service. In addition to the resiliency shortage identified in the Master Plan, an additional four wells are expected to be taken out of service to comply with regulations due to their proximity to recycled water recharge at Weaver Basins, following the commissioning of the SNRC. Staff has identified the 2021 Urban and Multibenefit Drought Relief Grant Program as a potential funding source to evaluate, design and construct new production wells to enhance the District’s water supply. Staff has developed and submitted an application for grant funding for $16.25 million to the Department of Water Resources on November 19, 2021. A requirement of the application is that the Board of Directors authorize a designee to file an application and, if selected, negotiate and sign the funding agreement along with other administrative tasks throughout the term of the grant agreement. The condensed application period did not allow for this item to be presented to the Board before submission, but the program does allow for the Resolution to the be Agenda Item #3b December 8, 20212 2 5 5 Meeting Date: December 8, 2021 Agenda Item #3b Consent Item submitted afterward.

A. Prepayment in Full The Special Tax Obligation applicable to an Assessor’s Parcel may be prepaid and the obligation of the Assessor’s Parcel to pay any Special Tax permanently satisfied as described herein, provided that a prepayment may be made with respect to a particular Assessor’s Parcel only if there are no delinquent Special Taxes with respect to such Assessor’s Parcel at the time of prepayment. An owner of an Assessor’s Parcel intending to prepay the Special Tax Obligation shall provide the CFD Administrator with written notice of intent to prepay and the company or agency that will be acting as the escrow agent, if any. The CFD Administrator shall provide the owner with a statement of the Prepayment Amount (as defined below) for such Assessor’s Parcel within thirty (30) days of the request and may charge a reasonable fee for providing this service. Prepayment must be made more than sixty (60) days prior to any redemption date for the IA No. 1 Bonds to be redeemed with the proceeds of such prepaid Special Taxes, unless a shorter period is acceptable to the Trustee and the Water District. The Prepayment Amount (defined below) shall be calculated as summarized below (capitalized terms as defined below): Bond Redemption Amount plus Redemption Premium plus Future Facilities Prepayment Amount plus Defeasance Amount plus Prepayment Administrative Fees and Expenses November 12, 2021 Community Facilities District No. 202-1 (Mediterra) East Valley Water District C- 11 less Reserve Fund Credit less Capitalized Interest Credit Total: equals Prepayment Amount As of the proposed date of prepayment, the Prepayment Amount (defined below) shall be calculated as follows: Paragraph No.: 1. Confirm that no Special Tax delinquencies apply to such Assessor’s Parcel. 2. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property, determine the Maximum Special Tax. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has been issued, compute the Maximum Special Tax for that Assessor’s Parcel as though it was already designated as Developed Property, based upon the Building Permit(s) which has already been issued for that Assessor’s Parcel. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has not been issued, compute the Maximum Special Tax for that Assessor’s Parcel. 3. Divide the Maximum Special Tax computed pursuant to paragraph 2 by the total estimated Maximum Special Tax for IA No. 1 based on the Developed Property Special Tax which could be levied in the current Fiscal Year on all expected development through build-out of IA No. 1 as determined by the CFD Administrator, excluding any Assessor’s Parcels for which the Special Tax Obligation has been prepaid. 4. Multiply the quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 3 by the Outstanding Bonds to compute the amount of Outstanding Bonds to be retired and prepaid (the “Bond Redemption Amount”). 5. Multiply the Bond Redemption Amount computed pursuant to paragraph 4 by the applicable redemption premium (expressed as a percentage), if any, on the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed at the first available call date (the “Redemption Premium”). 6. Compute the current Future Facilities Costs. 7. Multiply the quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 3 by the amount determined pursuant to paragraph 6 to compute the amount of Future Facilities Costs to be prepaid (the “Future Facilities Prepayment Amount”). November 12, 2021 Community Facilities District No. 202-1 (Mediterra) East Valley Water District C- 12 8. Compute the amount needed to pay interest on the Bond Redemption Amount from the first bond interest and/or principal payment date following the current Fiscal Year until the earliest redemption date for the Outstanding Bonds. 9. Compute the amount the CFD Administrator reasonably expects to derive from the reinvestment of the Prepayment Amount less the Future Facilities Amount and the Prepayment Administrative Fees and Expenses from the date of prepayment until the redemption date for the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed with the prepayment. 10. Take the amount computed pursuant to paragraph 8 and subtract the amount computed pursuant to paragraph 9 (the “Defeasance Amount”). 11. Verify the administrative fees and expenses of IA No. 1, including the costs of computation of the prepayment, the costs to invest the prepayment proceeds, the costs of redeeming Bonds, and the costs of recording any notices to evidence the prepayment and the redemption (the “Prepayment Administrative Fees and Expenses”). 12. If reserve funds for the Outstanding Bonds, if any, are at or above 100% of the reserve requirement (as defined in the Indenture) on the prepayment date, a reserve fund credit shall be calculated as a reduction in the applicable reserve fund for the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed pursuant to the prepayment (the “Reserve Fund Credit”). No Reserve Fund Credit shall be granted if reserve funds are below 100% of the reserve requirement. 13. If any capitalized interest for the Outstanding Bonds will not have been expended at the time of the first interest and/or principal payment following the current Fiscal Year, a capitalized interest credit shall be calculated by multiplying the larger quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 3 by the expected balance in the capitalized interest fund after such first interest and/or principal payment (the “Capitalized Interest Credit”). 14. The Special Tax Obligation is equal to the sum of the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 4, 5, 7, 10, and 11, less the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 12 and 13 (the “Prepayment Amount”). 15. From the Prepayment Amount, the sum of the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 4, 5, and 10, less the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 12, and 13 shall be deposited into the appropriate fund as established under the Indenture and be used to retire Outstanding Bonds or make Debt Service payments. The amount computed pursuant to paragraph 7 shall be deposited into the Construction Fund. The amount computed pursuant to paragraph 11 shall be retained by IA No. 1. November 12, 2021 Community Facilities District No. 202-1 (Mediterra) East Valley Water District C- 13 The Prepayment Amount may be sufficient to redeem an amount other than a $5,000 increment of Bonds. In such cases, the increment above $5,000 or integral multiple thereof will be retained in the appropriate fund established under the Indenture to redeem Bonds to be used with the next prepayment of Bonds. The CFD Administrator will confirm that all previously levied Special Taxes have been paid in full. With respect to any Assessor's Parcel that is prepaid in full, once the CFD Administrator has confirmed that all previously levied Special Taxes have been paid, the Water District shall cause a suitable notice to be recorded in compliance with the Act, to indicate the prepayment of Special Taxes and the release of the Special Tax lien on such Assessor’s Parcel, and the Special Tax Obligation of such Assessor's Parcel to pay the Special Tax shall cease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Special Tax prepayment shall be allowed unless the amount of Maximum Special Taxes less Administrative Expenses for each Fiscal Year that may be levied on Taxable Property, respectively, after the proposed prepayment is at least 1.1 times the annual Debt Service on all Outstanding Bonds. B. Partial Prepayment The Special Tax on an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property or for Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has been issued may be partially prepaid. The Partial Prepayment Amount shall be calculated as in Section 6.A.; except that a partial prepayment shall be calculated according to the following formula: PP = (PE – A) x F + A These terms have the following meaning: PP = the Partial Prepayment PE = the Prepayment Amount calculated according to Section 6.A. F = the percentage by which the owner of the Assessor’s Parcel(s) is partially prepaying the Special Tax. A= The Administrative Fees and Expenses from Section 6.A. The owner of any Assessor’s Parcel who desires such prepayment shall notify the CFD Administrator of (i) such owner’s intent to partially prepay the Special Tax, (ii) the percentage by which the Special Tax shall be prepaid, and (iii) the company or agency that will be acting as the escrow agent, if any. The CFD Administrator shall provide the owner with a statement of the amount required for the partial prepayment of the Special Tax for an Assessor’s Parcel within sixty (60) days of the request and may charge a reasonable fee for providing this service November 12, 2021 Community Facilities District No. 202-1 (Mediterra) East Valley Water District C- 14 With respect to any Assessor’s Parcel that is partially prepaid, the Water District shall (i) distribute the funds remitted to it according to Section 6.A., and (ii) indicate in the records of IA No. 1 that there has been a partial prepayment of the Special Tax and that a portion of the Special Tax with respect to such Assessor’s Parcel, equal to the outstanding percentage (1.00 - F) of the remaining Maximum Special Tax, shall continue to be levied on such Assessor’s Parcel pursuant to Section 3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no partial prepayment shall be allowed unless the amount of Maximum Special Taxes A less Administrative Expenses for each Fiscal Year that may be levied on Taxable Property, respectively, after the proposed partial prepayment is at least 1.1 times the annual Debt Service on all Outstanding Bonds. 7. TERM OF SPECIAL TAX The Annual Special Tax shall be levied for a period of thirty-five (35) Fiscal Years after the last series of Bonds has been issued, provided that the Special Tax shall not be levied later than Fiscal Year 2071/2072. 8. EXEMPTIONS The CFD Administrator shall classify as Exempt Property (i) Assessor’s Parcels owned by the State of California, Federal or other local governments, (ii) Assessor’s Parcels which are used as places of worship and are exempt from ad valorem property taxes because they are owned by a religious organization, (iii) Assessor’s Parcels developed or planned to be developed exclusively for any type of Non-Residential Property use, (iv) Assessor’s Parcels with public utility easement by the restriction or other restriction, as determined reasonably by the CFD Administrator, provided that no such classification would reduce the sum of all Taxable Property within IA No. 1 to less than 16.94 Acres in Zone A and 8.30 Acres in Zone B. Assessor’s Parcels which cannot be classified as Exempt Property because such classification would reduce the sum of all Taxable Property in IA No. 1 to less than 16.94 Acres in Zone A and 8.30 Acres in Zone B shall be classified as Provisional Undeveloped Property, and will continue to be subject to the Special Tax accordingly. Tax exempt status for this purpose of this paragraph will be assigned by the CFD Administrator in the chronological order in which property becomes eligible for classification as Exempt Property. If the use of an Assessor’s Parcel of Exempt Property changes so that such Assessor’s Parcel is no longer classified as one of the uses set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 8 above that would make such Assessor’s Parcel eligible to be classified as Exempt Property, such Assessor’s Parcel shall cease to be classified as Exempt Property and shall be deemed to be Taxable Property.

Notwithstanding the above, under no circumstances will the Special Tax levied in any Fiscal Year against any Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property for which an occupancy permit for private residential use has been issued be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owner of any other Assessor’s Parcel within IA No. 2 by more than 10% of the amount that would have been levied in the Fiscal Year is the absence of such delinquency or default, except for those Assessor’s Parcels of Developed Property whose owners are also delinquent or in default on their Special Tax payments for one or more other properties within IA No. 2. 5. COLLECTON OF ANNUAL SPECIAL TAXES Collection of the Annual Special Tax shall be by the County in the same manner as ordinary ad valorem property taxes are collected and the Annual Special Tax shall be subject to the same penalties and the same lien priority in the case of delinquency as ad valorem taxes; provided, however, that the Water District may provide for (i) other means of collecting the Annual Special Tax, including direct billings thereof to the property owners; and (ii) judicial foreclosure of delinquent Special Taxes to meet the financial obligations of IA No. 2. 6. PREPAYMENT OF SPECIAL TAX OBLIGATION Property owners may prepay and permanently satisfy the Special Tax Obligation by a cash settlement with the Water District as permitted under Government Code Section 53344. Prepayment is permitted only under the following conditions: The following definitions apply to this Section 6: “Construction Fund” means the fund (regardless of its name) established pursuant to the Indenture to hold funds, which are currently available for expenditure to acquire or construct the facilities or pay fees. “Construction Inflation Index” means the annual percentage change in the Engineering News-Record Building Cost Index for the City of Los Angeles, measured as of the Calendar Year, which ends in the previous Fiscal Year. In the event this index ceases to be published, the Construction Inflation Index shall be November 12, 2021 Community Facilities District No. 202-1 (Mediterra) East Valley Water District C- 25 another index as determined by the CFD Administrator that is reasonably comparable to the Engineering News-Record Building Cost Index for the City of Los Angeles. “Future Facilities Costs” means the IA No. 2 Public Facilities Costs minus (i) costs previously paid from the Construction Fund to acquire or construct the facilities, (ii) monies currently on deposit in the Construction Fund, and (iii) monies currently on deposit in an escrow or other earmarked fund that are expected to be available to finance IA No. 2 Public Facilities Costs. “IA No. 2 Public Facilities Costs” means $5,753,847 in 2021 dollars, which shall increase by the Construction Inflation Index (as defined above) on July 1, 2022, and on each July 1 thereafter, or such lower number as (i) shall be determined by the CFD Administrator as sufficient to acquire or construct the facilities to be financed under the authorized Mello-Roos financing program for IA No. 2, or (ii) shall be determined by the Water District concurrently with a covenant that it will not issue any more IA No. 2 Bonds (except refunding bonds) to be supported by Special Taxes. “Outstanding Bonds” means all Previously Issued Bonds, which remain outstanding as of the first interest and/or principal payment date following the current Fiscal Year excluding Bonds to be redeemed at a later date with proceeds of prior prepayments of Maximum Special Taxes. “Previously Issued Bonds” means all IA No. 2 Bonds that have been issued prior to the date of prepayment. A. Prepayment in Full The Special Tax Obligation applicable to an Assessor’s Parcel may be prepaid and the obligation of the Assessor’s Parcel to pay any Special Tax permanently satisfied as described herein, provided that a prepayment may be made with respect to a particular Assessor’s Parcel only if there are no delinquent Special Taxes with respect to such Assessor’s Parcel at the time of prepayment. An owner of an Assessor’s Parcel intending to prepay the Special Tax Obligation shall provide the CFD Administrator with written notice of intent to prepay and the company or agency that will be acting as the escrow agent, if any. The CFD Administrator shall provide the owner with a statement of the Prepayment Amount (as defined below) for such Assessor’s Parcel within thirty (30) days of the request and may charge a reasonable fee for providing this service. Prepayment must be made more than sixty (60) days prior to any redemption date for the IA No. 2 Bonds to be redeemed with the proceeds of such prepaid Special Taxes, unless a shorter period is acceptable to the Trustee and the Water District. The Prepayment Amount (defined below) shall be calculated as summarized below (capitalized terms as defined below): Bond Redemption Amount plus Redemption Premium plus Future Facilities Prepayment Amount November 12, 2021 Community Facilities District No. 202-1 (Mediterra) East Valley Water District C- 26 plus Defeasance Amount plus Prepayment Administrative Fees and Expenses less Reserve Fund Credit less Capitalized Interest Credit Total: equals Prepayment Amount As of the proposed date of prepayment, the Prepayment Amount (defined below) shall be calculated as follows: Paragraph No.: 3. Confirm that no Special Tax delinquencies apply to such Assessor’s Parcel. 4. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property, determine the Maximum Special Tax. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has been issued, compute the Maximum Special Tax for that Assessor’s Parcel as though it was already designated as Developed Property, based upon the Building Permit(s) which has already been issued for that Assessor’s Parcel. For an Assessor’s Parcel of Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has not been issued, compute the Maximum Special Tax for that Assessor’s Parcel. 3. Divide the Maximum Special Tax computed pursuant to paragraph 2 by the total estimated Maximum Special Tax for IA No. 2 based on the Developed Property Special Tax which could be levied in the current Fiscal Year on all expected development through build-out of IA No. 2 as determined by the CFD Administrator, excluding any Assessor’s Parcels for which the Special Tax Obligation has been prepaid. 4. Multiply the quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 3 by the Outstanding Bonds to compute the amount of Outstanding Bonds to be retired and prepaid (the “Bond Redemption Amount”). 5. Multiply the Bond Redemption Amount computed pursuant to paragraph 4 by the applicable redemption premium (expressed as a percentage), if any, on the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed at the first available call date (the “Redemption Premium”). 6. Compute the current Future Facilities Costs. 7. Multiply the quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 3 by the amount determined pursuant to paragraph 6 to compute the amount of Future Facilities Costs to be prepaid (the “Future Facilities Prepayment Amount”). November 12, 2021 Community Facilities District No. 202-1 (Mediterra) East Valley Water District C- 27 8. Compute the amount needed to pay interest on the Bond Redemption Amount from the first bond interest and/or principal payment date following the current Fiscal Year until the earliest redemption date for the Outstanding Bonds. 9. Compute the amount the CFD Administrator reasonably expects to derive from the reinvestment of the Prepayment Amount less the Future Facilities Amount and the Prepayment Administrative Fees and Expenses from the date of prepayment until the redemption date for the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed with the prepayment. 10. Take the amount computed pursuant to paragraph 8 and subtract the amount computed pursuant to paragraph 9 (the “Defeasance Amount”). 11. Verify the administrative fees and expenses of IA No. 2, including the costs of computation of the prepayment, the costs to invest the prepayment proceeds, the costs of redeeming Bonds, and the costs of recording any notices to evidence the prepayment and the redemption (the “Prepayment Administrative Fees and Expenses”). 12. If reserve funds for the Outstanding Bonds, if any, are at or above 100% of the reserve requirement (as defined in the Indenture) on the prepayment date, a reserve fund credit shall be calculated as a reduction in the applicable reserve fund for the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed pursuant to the prepayment (the “Reserve Fund Credit”). No Reserve Fund Credit shall be granted if reserve funds are below 100% of the reserve requirement. 13. If any capitalized interest for the Outstanding Bonds will not have been expended at the time of the first interest and/or principal payment following the current Fiscal Year, a capitalized interest credit shall be calculated by multiplying the larger quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 3 by the expected balance in the capitalized interest fund after such first interest and/or principal payment (the “Capitalized Interest Credit”). 14. The Special Tax Obligation is equal to the sum of the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 4, 5, 7, 10, and 11, less the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 12 and 13 (the “Prepayment Amount”). 15. From the Prepayment Amount, the sum of the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 4, 5, and 10, less the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 12, and 13 shall be deposited into the appropriate fund as established under the Indenture and be used to retire Outstanding Bonds or make Debt Service payments. The amount computed pursuant to November 12, 2021 Community Facilities District No. 202-1 (Mediterra) East Valley Water District C- 28 paragraph 7 shall be deposited into the Construction Fund. The amount computed pursuant to paragraph 11 shall be retained by IA No. 2. The Prepayment Amount may be sufficient to redeem an amount other than a $5,000 increment of Bonds. In such cases, the increment above $5,000 or integral multiple thereof will be retained in the appropriate fund established under the Indenture to redeem Bonds to be used with the next prepayment of Bonds. The CFD Administrator will confirm that all previously levied Special Taxes have been paid in full. With respect to any Assessor's Parcel that is prepaid in full, once the CFD Administrator has confirmed that all previously levied Special Taxes have been paid, the Water District shall cause a suitable notice to be recorded in compliance with the Act, to indicate the prepayment of Special Taxes and the release of the Special Tax lien on such Assessor’s Parcel, and the Special Tax Obligation of such Assessor's Parcel to pay the Special Tax shall cease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Special Tax prepayment shall be allowed unless the amount of Maximum Special Taxes less Administrative Expenses for each Fiscal Year that may be levied on Taxable Property, respectively, after the proposed prepayment is at least 1.1 times the annual Debt Service on all Outstanding Bonds. B. Partial Prepayment The Special Tax on an Assessor’s Parcel of Developed Property or for Undeveloped Property for which a Building Permit has been issued may be partially prepaid. The Partial Prepayment Amount shall be calculated as in Section 6.A.; except that a partial prepayment shall be calculated according to the following formula: PP = (PE – A) x F + A These terms have the following meaning: PP = the Partial Prepayment PE = the Prepayment Amount calculated according to Section 6.A. F = the percentage by which the owner of the Assessor’s Parcel(s) is partially prepaying the Special Tax. A= The Administrative Fees and Expenses from Section 6.A. The owner of any Assessor’s Parcel who desires such prepayment shall notify the CFD Administrator of (i) such owner’s intent to partially prepay the Special Tax, (ii) the percentage by which the Special Tax shall be prepaid, and (iii) the company or agency that will be acting as the escrow agent, if any. The CFD November 12, 2021 Community Facilities District No. 202-1 (Mediterra) East Valley Water District C- 29 Administrator shall provide the owner with a statement of the amount required for the partial prepayment of the Special Tax for an Assessor’s Parcel within sixty (60) days of the request and may charge a reasonable fee for providing this service With respect to any Assessor’s Parcel that is partially prepaid, the Water District shall (i) distribute the funds remitted to it according to Section 6.A., and (ii) indicate in the records of IA No. 2 that there has been a partial prepayment of the Special Tax and that a portion of the Special Tax with respect to such Assessor’s Parcel, equal to the outstanding percentage (1.00 - F) of the remaining Maximum Special Tax, shall continue to be levied on such Assessor’s Parcel pursuant to Section 3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no partial prepayment shall be allowed unless the amount of Maximum Special Taxes A less Administrative Expenses for each Fiscal Year that may be levied on Taxable Property, respectively, after the proposed partial prepayment is at least 1.1 times the annual Debt Service on all Outstanding Bonds. 7. TERM OF SPECIAL TAX The Annual Special Tax shall be levied for a period of thirty-five (35) Fiscal Years after the last series of Bonds has been issued, provided that the Special Tax shall not be levied later than Fiscal Year 2071/2072. 8. EXEMPTIONS The CFD Administrator shall classify as Exempt Property (i) Assessor’s Parcels owned by the State of California, Federal or other local governments, (ii) Assessor’s Parcels which are used as places of worship and are exempt from ad valorem property taxes because they are owned by a religious organization, (iii) Assessor’s Parcels developed or planned to be developed exclusively for any type of Non-Residential Property use, (iv) Assessor’s Parcels with public utility easement by the restriction or other restriction, as determined reasonably by the CFD Administrator, provided that no such classification would reduce the sum of all Taxable Property within IA No. 2 to less than 12.64 Acres in Zone A and 6.11 Acres in Zone B. Assessor’s Parcels which cannot be classified as Exempt Property because such classification would reduce the sum of all Taxable Property in IA No. 2 to less than 12.64 Acres in Zone A and 6.11 Acres in Zone B shall be classified as Provisional Undeveloped Property, and will continue to be subject to the Special Tax accordingly. Tax exempt status for this purpose of this paragraph will be assigned by the CFD Administrator in the chronological order in which property becomes eligible for classification as Exempt Property. If the use of an Assessor’s Parcel of Exempt Property changes so that such Assessor’s Parcel is no longer classified as one of the uses set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 8 above that would make such Assessor’s Parcel eligible to be classified as November 12, 2021 Community Facilities District No. 202-1 (Mediterra) East Valley Water District C- 30 Exempt Property, such Assessor’s Parcel shall cease to be classified as Exempt Property and shall be deemed to be Taxable Property. 9. APPEALS Any landowner who pays the Annual Special Tax and claims the amount of the Annual Special Tax levied on his or her Assessor’s Parcel is in error shall first consult with the CFD Administrator regarding such error not later than twelve (12) months after first having paid the first installment of the Annual Special Tax that is disputed. If following such consultation, the CFD Administrator determines that an error has occurred, the CFD Administrator may recommend changing the amount of the Annual Special Tax levied on such Assessor’s Parcel. If following such consultation and action, if any by the CFD Administrator, the landowner believes such error still exists, such person may file a written notice with the General Manager appealing the amount of the Annual Special Tax levied on such Assessor’s Parcel. Upon the receipt of such notice, the General Manager may establish such procedures as deemed necessary to undertake the review of any such appeal.

Findings. The Board hereby specifically finds and declares that each of the statements, findings and determinations of the District set forth in the above recitals and in the preambles of the documents approved herein are true and correct. Section 2. Formation. The Community Facilities District to be designated “Community Facilities District No. 2021-1 (Mediterra) of East Valley Water District, County of San Bernardino, State of California,” and Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein, is hereby established pursuant to the Act. The Board hereby finds and determines that all prior proceedings taken with respect to the establishment of the Community Facilities District and Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein were valid and in conformity with the requirements of law, including the Act. This finding is made in accordance with the provisions of Section 53325.1(b) of the Act. Section 3. Boundaries. The boundaries of the Community Facilities District and Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein are established as shown on the map designated “Boundary Map Community Facilities District No. 2021-1 (Mediterra) of East Valley Water District, County of San Bernardino, State of California,” which map is on file in the office of the Board Secretary and was recorded pursuant to Sections 3111 and 3113 of the Streets and Highways Code in the County of San Bernardino Book of Assessments and Community Facilities Districts in the County East Valley Water District Resolution 2021.24 Page 3 of 7 Recorder’s Office in Book No. [360 at pages 56-65 as Document No. 2021-0393892 on August 31, 2021]. Section 4. Types of Facilities to be Financed by the Community Facilities District. The types of Facilities and Incidental Expenses that are authorized to be provided for the Community Facilities District and Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein are those set forth in the Resolution of Intention. The estimated costs of the Facilities and Incidental Expenses to be financed is set forth in the Community Facilities District Report, which estimates may change as the Facilities are designed and bid for construction and acquisition. The District is authorized by the Act to contribute revenue to, or to construct or acquire the Facilities, all in accordance with the Act. The Board finds that the proposed Facilities are necessary to meet the increased demand that will be placed upon public infrastructure and the District as a result of new development within the Community Facilities District and Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein. Section 5. Special Taxes. The Board hereby adopts the rate and method of apportionment of special tax for each of the Improvement Areas attached to the Resolution of Intention as Exhibit C (each, the “Rate and Method” for the applicable Improvement Area) as the applicable rate and method of apportionment for the designated Improvement Area. Except where funds are otherwise available, it is the intention of the Board, subject to the approval of the eligible voters within each Improvement Area, to levy the proposed special taxes in each Improvement Area at the rates set forth in the applicable Rate and Method on all non-exempt property within the Improvement Area in order to pay: (i) the cost of the Facilities and the principal of and interest and other periodic costs on the bonds proposed to be issued by the Community Facilities District on behalf of the applicable Improvement Area to finance the Facilities and Incidental Expenses, including the establishment and replenishment of reserve funds, any remarketing, credit enhancement and liquidity facility fees (including such fees for instruments which serve as the basis of a reserve fund in lieu of cash) and other expenses of the type permitted by Section 53345.3 of the Act; and (ii) the Incidental Expenses. The Community Facilities District expects to incur, and in certain cases has already incurred, Incidental Expenses in connection with the creation of the Improvement Areas, providing for the issuance of bonds, the levying and collecting of the special tax, the completion and inspection of the Facilities and the annual administration of the bonds and the Community Facilities District and Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein. The Rate and Method for each Improvement Area is described in detail in Exhibit C to the Resolution of Intention and incorporated herein by this reference, and the Board hereby finds that said Exhibit C contains sufficient detail to allow each landowner within each Improvement Area to estimate the maximum amount that may be levied against each parcel. As described in greater detail in the Community Facilities District Report, which is incorporated by reference herein, the special tax is based on the expected demand that each parcel of real property within each Improvement Area will place on the Facilities and, accordingly, is hereby determined to be reasonable. The special tax shall be levied on each assessor’s parcel in each Improvement Area pursuant to the applicable Rate and Method, but the special tax shall not be levied after Fiscal Year East Valley Water District Resolution 2021.24 Page 4 of 7 2071-72. The special tax is apportioned to each parcel in each Improvement Area on the foregoing bases pursuant to Section 53325.3 of the Act and such special tax is not a tax on or a tax based upon the ownership of real property. The District’s Chief Financial Officer will be responsible for preparing annually, or authorizing a designee to prepare, a current roll of special tax levy obligations by assessor’s parcel number and will be responsible for estimating future special tax levies pursuant to Section 53340.2 of the Act. The District’s Chief Financial Officer contact information is as follows: East Valley Water District, Attn: Chief Financial Officer, 31111 Greenspot Road, Highland, California 92346, (909) 889-9501. Section 6. Public Hearing. In the event that a portion of the property within the Improvement Areas shall become for any reason exempt, wholly or partially, from the levy of the special tax specified in the applicable Rate and Method, the Board shall, on behalf of such Improvement Area, increase the levy to the extent necessary and permitted by law and these proceedings upon the remaining property within such Improvement Area which is not delinquent or exempt in order to yield the required debt service payments on any outstanding bonds for such Improvement Area or to prevent the Community Facilities District from defaulting on any other obligations or liabilities for such Improvement Area; provided, however, that under no circumstances shall the Special Tax levied on Residential Property (as such term is defined in the Rates and Methods) in the Improvement Areas be increased as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owner of any other parcel or parcels within the applicable Improvement Area by more than ten percent (10%) above the amount that would have been levied in that fiscal year had there never been any such delinquencies or defaults in the applicable Improvement Area. The amount of the special tax will be set in accordance with the Rate and Method for the applicable Improvement Area. Section 7. Lien of Special Taxes. Upon recordation of a notice of special tax lien pursuant to Section 3114.5 of the Streets and Highways Code, a continuing lien to secure each levy of the special tax shall attach to all non-exempt real property in each Improvement Area; and this lien shall continue in force and effect until the special tax obligation is prepaid and permanently satisfied and the lien canceled in accordance with law or until collection of the special tax by the Community Facilities District on behalf of the applicable Improvement Area ceases. Section 8. Finding Related to Agricultural Land. Consistent with Section 53325.6 of the Act, the Board finds and determines that the land within the Improvement Areas, if any, devoted primarily to agricultural, timber or livestock uses and being used for the commercial production of agricultural, timber or livestock products is contiguous to other land within the Community Facilities District and Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein and will be benefited by the Facilities proposed to be provided within the Community Facilities District and Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein. Section 9. No Other Taxes. It is hereby further determined that there is no ad valorem property tax currently being levied on property within the proposed Community Facilities District and Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein for the exclusive purpose of paying the principal of or interest on bonds or other indebtedness incurred to finance the construction of capital facilities East Valley Water District Resolution 2021.24 Page 5 of 7 which provide the same services to the territory of the Community Facilities District and Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein as are proposed to be provided by the Facilities to be financed by the Community Facilities District and Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein. Section 10. No Protests. Written protests against the establishment of the Community Facilities District and Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein have not been filed by one half or more of the registered voters within the boundaries of the Improvement Area or by the property owners of one half or more of the area of land within the boundaries of the Community Facilities District or Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 therein. The Board hereby finds that the proposed special tax has not been precluded by a majority protest pursuant to Section 53324 of the Act. Section 11. Elections. An election is hereby called within each Improvement Area on the propositions of levying the special tax on the property within each Improvement Area, establishing an appropriations limit for the Community Facilities District pursuant to Section 53325.7 of the Act and incurring bonded indebtedness for each Improvement Area pursuant to Section 53351 of the Act. The propositions to be placed on the ballot for each Improvement Area are attached hereto as Exhibit A.

No Registered Voters. It is hereby found that there are no registered voters within the territory of any of the Improvement Areas, and, pursuant to Section 53326 of the Act, each landowner who is the owner of record on the date hereof, or the authorized representative thereof, shall have one vote for each acre or portion thereof that he, she or it owns within each Improvement Area. The voters shall be the landowners of record within each Improvement Area as of December 8, 2021. Section 13. Community Facilities District Report.

The President or Vice President of the Board or the General Manager of the District or the designee thereof are authorized and directed to execute and deliver the Acquisition Agreement with such changes, insertions and omissions as may be recommended by General Counsel or Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, the District’s Bond Counsel, and East Valley Water District Resolution 2021.24 Page 6 of 7 approved by the person executing the same, said execution being conclusive evidence of such approval.

The Developer has requested that the Water District consider the formation of a community facilities district pursuant to the provisions of the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, as amended (the “Act”), the designation of two improvement areas within the CFD, to be designated as Improvement Area Nos. 1 and 2 (each, an “Improvement Area”) and the authorization of special taxes for each Improvement Area (the “Special Taxes”) and the issuance of bonded indebtedness in each Improvement Area (the “Bonds”) for the payment of the construction and/or acquisition of certain public improvements to be owned, operated or maintained by the Water District, including the acquisition of capacity in the Water District’s water and sewer systems and Incidental Expenses as defined by the Act. B. In order to proceed in a timely manner with development of its property within the CFD which is described in Exhibit A (the “Developer Property”), the Developer desires to fund through the CFD: (i) the Water District’s acquisition or construction, if any, of certain public improvements that are to be owned, operated and maintained by the Water District (the “EVWD Improvements”); and (ii) improvements included or to be included in the Water District’s water and sewer connection and capacity fee programs (the “Capacity Improvements”), as more particularly set forth and described in the Description of Cost Estimates set forth in Exhibit B (collectively, the “Improvements”). C. The Water District is authorized by the Act to form the CFD, to designate the Improvement Areas, to levy Special Taxes and to issue Bonds to fund the Improvements. D. The Water District’s Board of Directors has adopted policies and procedures (as amended from time to time, the “Policy”) concerning the use of special district financing programs to finance water and/or sewer system facilities. E. The purpose of this Agreement is to set forth a formal understanding between the Developer and the Water District (pursuant to the requirements of Government Code Section 53313.51 and other provisions of the Act and the Policy) concerning financial and other obligations and responsibilities related to the formation of the CFD and the Improvements to be financed by the CFD, when and if formed, to the extent that proceeds of Special Taxes and Bonds of each Improvement Area are available, and to set forth the conditions upon which: (1) the CFD will reimburse the Developer or its designee for: (a) the amounts advanced by the Developer to form the 2 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 CFD; and (b) the cost of the EVWD Improvements constructed by or on behalf of the Developer; and (2) the CFD will fund Capacity Improvements and the Water District will grant credit against applicable water and sewer capacity and connection fees. AGREEMENT SECTION 1. FEASIBILITY STUDY At the Developer’s request, the Water District will undertake to analyze the propriety of forming the CFD to finance the Improvements. The Water District will retain, at the Developer’s expense, the necessary consultants to analyze the proposed formation thereof, including an engineer, special tax consultant, bond counsel, appraiser and other consultants which are deemed necessary by the Water District. In order to begin the process of analyzing the CFD’s formation, the Developer has entered into a Reimbursement Agreement Re Formation of Proposed Community Facilities District No. 2021-1 (Mediterra) of East Valley Water District (the “Reimbursement Agreement”) pursuant to which the Developer has advanced to the Water District a sum of money to cover the costs of forming the CFD. The Reimbursement Agreement requires the Developer to make additional advances for such costs, as necessary. The amounts advanced by the Developer pursuant to the Reimbursement Agreement and, to the extent determined reasonable and appropriate by the Water District, expenses incurred by the Developer for engineering consultant costs in connection with the formation of the CFD and the issuance of Bonds, will be reimbursable to the Developer, without interest, from the proceeds of Bonds issued by the CFD when and if formed, and/or from the proceeds of Special Taxes collected within each Improvement Area. In the event that Bonds are not issued, or Special Taxes are not levied, to provide a source of reimbursement to the Developer, the Water District shall not have any liability to the Developer to reimburse it for any of the amounts which were previously advanced by the Developer and expended by the Water District. The Developer will assist the Water District and its consultants, at no cost to the Water District, in completing all reasonably necessary technical, financial and legal preparations required to form the CFD. In the event that the Developer fails to fulfill its responsibilities under this Agreement prior to formation of the CFD, the Water District shall have the unequivocal right to terminate its obligations, receive payment of its full actual incurred cost and terminate this Agreement. SECTION 2. REIMBURSEMENT PROCEDURE It is hereby agreed by the Parties that, if the qualified electors of each Improvement Area within the proposed CFD do not approve the proposed Special Tax to be levied within the Improvement Areas, the Water District shall return any funds which have been advanced by the Developer and have not been committed for any authorized purpose by the time of the election. It is the intention of the Parties to make eligible for reimbursement, without interest, to the extent permitted by law, any reasonable work undertaken, or expenses incurred, by or for the Developer with respect to the Improvements, to the extent determined reasonable and appropriate by the Water District. Any such reimbursement shall be payable only when and if the CFD is formed and Bonds are sold or Special Taxes are levied. Reimbursement for costs and incidental expenses of EVWD Improvements is conditional upon full compliance with the provisions of Sections 6 through 10 of this Agreement. The funding of the acquisition or construction of the EVWD Improvements from the proceeds of the Bonds shall not diminish any sewer and water capacity and connection fee credits which are available to the Developer as a result of such acquisition or construction, as provided in a 3 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 [CONFIRM] [Development Agreement for Water and Sewer Mediterra, TTM No. 18893], to be entered into between the Water District and the Developer (the “Development Agreement”). SECTION 3. SALE OF BONDS 3.1 Water District Policies. The Water District’s Board of Directors has adopted the Policy setting forth the Water District’s policies and procedures concerning the use of special district financing programs to finance water and/or sewer system facilities. Pursuant to the Policy, the total annual amount of the Special Taxes to be collected with respect to property within an Improvement Area and all other taxes and assessments which will be collected with respect to such property must not exceed two percent (2%) of the projected initial sales price of a fully developed parcel. Also, the ratio of the value of all parcels of property within an Improvement Area for which the Bonds are being issued to the amount of outstanding community facilities district or assessment district bonds attributable to such parcels (the “Value-to-Lien Ratio”) may not be less than four-to-one (4:1) unless the Water District’s Board of Directors determines that a Value-to-Lien Ratio of less than 4:1 does not present any unusual credit risk. The fair market value of the property within each Improvement Area for purposes of determining such ratio will be determined based on the assessed value of the property or on the appraised value as determined by an appraisal made by an appraiser selected by the Water District with a valuation date within three (3) months of the issuance of the Bonds. Subject to satisfaction of applicable Water District policies and the requirements of this Agreement, the Water District shall use its best efforts to issue and sell the Bonds in one or more series for each Improvement Area in an amount that is sufficient to fund the Improvements, and the payment of such Bonds may be supported by Special Taxes from the applicable Improvement Area. 3.2 Security for Payment of Special Taxes. Concurrently with the issuance and sale of each series of Bonds, the Water District shall determine the parcels of land within an Improvement Area for which Bonds are being issued that are owned by the Developer or any affiliate of the Developer (the “Account Party”) for which the Maximum Special Taxes (as defined in the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax for such Improvement Area, the “RMA”) are equal to or exceed, in the aggregate, 20% of the Maximum Special Taxes in the Improvement Area (the “Secured Parcels”). The Developer shall deliver to the Water District either: (i) a renewable, irrevocable instrument of credit from a financial institution (rated “A” or better); or (ii) cash in-lieu thereof (a “Security”) to secure the payment of the Special Taxes on the Secured Parcels. The Security shall be in an amount equal to 100% of the product of the maximum annual debt service on the Bonds multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Maximum Special Taxes on the Secured Parcels and the denominator of which is the Maximum Special Taxes of all taxable property within the Improvement Area (the “Stated Amount”). The Security shall be maintained by the Account Party until the Secured Parcels owned by the Account Party are responsible for less than twenty percent (20%) of the Maximum Special Taxes which may be levied on all taxable property within the Improvement Area. The Stated Amount of such Security may be reduced from time to time based on the foregoing formula, as hereinafter provided in this Section 3.2. All costs and fees related to the establishment, maintenance and sizing of the Security in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, but not limited to any fees of a financial institution to establish or maintain any funds or accounts for such purposes, shall be borne by the Account Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Security shall be released at the end of a fiscal year (being June 30 of each year) if in the following fiscal year, the CFD will not levy any Special Taxes on Secured Parcels owned by the Account Party. 4 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 The Security shall name the Water District, or its designee, as a beneficiary and shall provide that the Water District, or its designee, may draw an amount equal to any delinquencies in payment of semiannual installments of the Special Taxes levied on the Secured Parcels owned by the Account Party. The total amount to be drawn under the Security shall not exceed an amount that is equal to the Special Taxes levied on the Secured Parcels that are delinquent at the time that the draw is made. The amount drawn on the Security shall be applied in the same manner and for the same purposes as the delinquent Special Taxes would have been applied; provided, however, that the payment of a draw under the Security will not be deemed to cure the delinquency in payment of the Special Taxes. If, subsequent to a draw on the Security and prior to the satisfaction of any reimbursements due to the institution providing the Security (the “Security Provider”) pursuant to this Agreement, the Water District receives payment of all or a portion of the delinquent Special Taxes or the proceeds of a sale of delinquent real property pursuant to foreclosure proceedings (the “Delinquency Proceeds”) for a parcel for which the Security has been drawn, the Security Provider shall be reimbursed for such draws to the extent of Delinquency Proceeds net of the Water District’s costs of collection, provided that the Security is or has been concurrently reinstated to, or a Substitute Security (as defined below) provided for, the then applicable Stated Amount. The Security Provider is intended by the Parties to be a third party beneficiary of this Section 3.2. The Security shall be renewed, or a substitute Security which is reasonably satisfactory to the Water District (a “Substitute Security”) shall be provided, not less than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the expiration of the Security or Substitute Security then in effect. If the Account Party provides a Substitute Security to the Water District, then the Water District or its designee shall return any existing Security on the effective date of the Substitute Security to the Security Provider. If the Security is not renewed within thirty (30) days prior to its expiration date and the requirements for release or termination of the Security have not then been met, the full amount of the Security may be drawn by the Water District and deposited in an account established under the Indenture (as such term is defined herein) or in such account established with a financial institution selected by the Water District. Thereafter, amounts in such account shall be held as security, and if Special Taxes owed by the Account Party with respect to the Secured Parcels are not paid prior to delinquency, then such amounts in such account may be applied by the Water District to pay the delinquent Special Taxes owed by the Account Party with respect to such Secured Parcels on the same terms and conditions as are applicable hereunder to draws on the Security. At such time as the Security is renewed, or a Substitute Security is accepted by the Water District, or the requirement for the Security has been terminated pursuant to this Section 3.2, the Water District or its designee shall release all amounts in the Security account to the Security Provider within ten (10) calendar days from the date of renewal or acceptance. Following the sale or transfer by the Account Party of any property to a person other than the Account Party, or upon the prepayment of the Special Tax obligation for a parcel owned by the Account Party, the Account Party shall notify Water District of such event, in writing, and, if requested by the Account Party, the Stated Amount of the Security shall be reduced and be recalculated in accordance with this Section 3.2; provided, however, that Water District shall be required to recalculate such amount and reduce the Security a maximum of two times each calendar year, and any costs associated with the recalculation and reduction shall be borne by the Account Party. The Security shall be terminated when: (1) the Maximum Special Taxes which are applicable to all Secured Parcels owned by the Account Party comprise less than twenty percent (20%) of the 5 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 Maximum Special Taxes of all taxable property within the Improvement Area; (2) the Account Party has paid all Special Taxes on the Secured Parcels owned by the Account Party which are due in the current fiscal year and the Maximum Special Taxes on the Secured Parcels which are owned by the Account Party will be less than twenty percent (20%) of the Maximum Special Taxes which are applicable to all taxable property within the Improvement Area in the next fiscal year; or (3) the Account Party has paid all Special Taxes on the Secured Parcels owned by the Account Party which are due in the current fiscal year and, in the following fiscal year, the CFD will not levy any Special Taxes on Secured Parcels owned by the Account Party. Reduction or termination of a Security shall occur automatically upon submission to the Security Provider by the Water District of a “Certificate of Reduction or Termination.” The Water District shall deliver to the Security Provider such Certificate of Reduction or Termination promptly upon receipt from the Account Party of a certification which shall be made under penalty of perjury and which shall indicate: (A) the legal description of all land that is owned by the Account Party; and either (B) a recalculation of the new Stated Amount that the Account Party proposes be applicable to the Security; or (C) if termination of the Security is requested, a statement either: (x) that the Secured Parcels owned by the Account Party are responsible for less than twenty percent (20%) of the Maximum Special Taxes which are applicable to all taxable property within the Improvement Area in the current fiscal year; (y) the Account Party has paid all Special Taxes which are due in the current fiscal year and the Maximum Special Taxes applicable to Secured Parcels owned by the Account Party will be less than twenty percent (20%) of the Maximum Special Taxes applicable to all taxable property within the Improvement Area in the next fiscal year; or (z) in the following fiscal year, the CFD will not levy any Special Taxes on Secured Parcels owned by the Account Party. The Account Party shall notify the Water District of any events that will result in a reduction of the Stated Amount of the Security and shall provide the Water District with verification of said events. The Account Party may provide the Water District with a Substitute Security in the reduced amount and the Water District shall release and return to the Security Provider the Security then in effect. The Parties expressly acknowledge that the Account Party’s failure to so notify the Water District or to reduce the Security at the times which are prescribed herein shall in no way effect or invalidate sale or transfer of property or recordation of maps on property. If the Secured Parcels are sold or transferred by an Account Party with the result that the Secured Parcels which are owned by the transferee or any of its affiliates (each, a “Transferee”) are responsible for twenty percent (20%) or more of the Maximum Special Taxes of all taxable property within the Improvement Area in the current fiscal year, a Security on the same terms specified herein will be furnished by Transferee with respect to all Secured Parcels owned by such Transferee. Any applicable purchase and sale agreement and/or escrow instructions shall notify the Transferee of this Security requirement and obligate the Transferee to provide such Security, if applicable. The Security of the Account Party will not be reduced to reflect the sale or transfer of such Secured Parcels until a Security is furnished by the Transferee and accepted by the Water District. The issuing financial institution and the form and terms of said Security will be subject to reasonable prior approval by the Water District. All terms provided in this Section 3 are applicable to the Transferee by replacing the term “Account Party” at each place where it occurs in each section with the term “Transferee.” Each provider of a Security for a Transferee shall be an express third party beneficiary of the provisions of this Section 3. Any costs related to holding or maintaining the Security, including any fees of a fiscal agent, trustee or other depository shall be borne by the Account Party. 6 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 3.3 Major Landowner Initial and Continuing Disclosure. An owner of land within an Improvement Area which is responsible for twenty percent (20%) or more of the Maximum Special Taxes within the Improvement Area (a “Major Landowner”) will be required to provide all information regarding the development of its property, including the financing plan for such development, which is necessary to ensure that each official statement for the Bonds complies with the requirements of Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Rule”) and all other applicable federal and state securities laws. Additionally, the Developer acknowledges that, if it is a Major Landowner at the time of issuance of the Bonds, it will be necessary for the Developer to enter into a continuing disclosure agreement to provide such continuing disclosure pertaining to the development of the land which is owned by the Developer within the Improvement Area as necessary to assist the Bond underwriter in complying with the continuing disclosure requirements of the Rule. 3.4 Bond Issuance Parameters. The terms and conditions upon which each series of Bonds shall be issued and sold, the method of sale of the Bonds (including competitive sales, negotiated underwritings and private placements), the timing of sale of the Bonds and the pricing of the Bonds shall be determined solely by the Water District in its reasonable discretion in conformance with the requirements of Government Code Section 53313.5, the Act, the Policy, other Water District policies, including its debt management policy, and this Agreement. Each series of Bonds shall be issued with a term not to exceed 31 years. The proceeds of the Bonds shall be used in the following priority: (1) to fund a reserve fund for the payment of principal and interest with respect to the Bonds in an amount equal to the least of: (i) ten percent (10%) of the initial principal amount of the Bonds; (ii) maximum annual debt service on Bonds; or (iii) 125% of average annual debt service; (2) to fund up to eighteen (18) months of capitalized interest; (3) to pay for the costs of forming the CFD and/or to reimburse the Developer or its designee pursuant to the Reimbursement Agreement for formation and issuance costs which have not already been reimbursed to the Developer from collected Special Taxes; (4) to pay for costs of issuance of the Bonds, including, without limitation, underwriter’s discount, bond counsel and disclosure counsel fees, municipal advisor, appraisal and special tax consultant fees, printing fees and fiscal agent fees; (5) to pay up to one year of estimated priority administrative costs related to the administration of the CFD; and (6) to pay for the actual costs of the Improvements. The CFD shall maintain records relating to the disbursements of proceeds of the sale of the Bonds. The Indenture or Resolution (the “Indenture”) under which the Bonds are issued shall establish an acquisition and construction fund or improvement fund (the “Improvement Fund”) into which shall be deposited initially the proceeds of the Bonds net of the amount of proceeds required to fund items (1) through (5) above. The Indenture shall also establish separate accounts of the Improvement Fund designated the “EVWD Improvements Account” and the “Capacity Improvements Account,” into which shall be deposited such portions of the Improvement Fund as directed by the Water District and in writing at or subsequent to the closing of the sale of the Bonds consistent with the following priorities: (a) An amount that is sufficient to fund the reasonable, current estimated cost of the Capacity Improvements which are anticipated to be funded out of the Bonds being issued shall be deposited in the Capacity Improvements Account (any Special Taxes levied in the Improvement Area and collected by the CFD remaining after the payment of administrative expenses of the CFD and the reimbursement of the Developer for CFD formation and issuance costs pursuant to the Reimbursement Agreement shall be deposited into the Capacity Improvements Account at the time of Bond issuance, unless otherwise directed in writing by the Developer); and 7 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 (b) If applicable, an amount to be agreed upon between the Developer and the CFD prior to the issuance of Bonds which is sufficient to fund the reasonable, current estimated costs of the EVWD Improvements shall be deposited, or later transferred, to the EVWD Improvements Account. Interest that is earned on moneys which are deposited in each of the Capacity Improvements Account and the EVWD Improvements Account shall remain in such accounts until such time as all of the Improvements have been funded. Additionally, the Developer may direct the CFD to transfer excess moneys in any of the Capacity Improvements Account or the EVWD Improvements Account to another account. The Indenture shall provide that amounts remaining in the Improvement Fund after funding all proposed Improvements or sooner, as specified by the Water District, shall be deposited in the special tax fund or bond service fund and be applied to pay debt service on the Bonds and/or to call Bonds in advance of maturity. The Indenture shall also provide that amounts in the reserve fund for the Bonds in excess of the reserve requirement shall be deposited in the special tax fund or bond service fund and applied to pay debt service on the Bonds. SECTION 4. LEVY AND ALLOCATION OF SPECIAL TAXES Beginning in the first fiscal year in which a parcel within an Improvement Area is classified as “Developed Property” pursuant to the RMA, Special Taxes shall be levied on such parcel to pay administrative expenses of the CFD and to pay directly for Improvements. Such Special Taxes collected each fiscal year prior to the issuance of Bonds of the Improvement Area that are in excess of the amount required to fund such administrative expenses shall be held by the Water District in a discrete fund (the “Special Fund”) and disbursed to fund Improvements in the same priority as disbursements of the proceeds of Bonds from the Improvement Fund. Upon sale and delivery of the Bonds or sooner, as specified by the Water District, the Board of Directors of the Water District, as the legislative body of the CFD, shall annually levy a Special Tax in each Improvement Area as provided for in the RMA for each Improvement Area. SECTION 5. NOTICE OF SPECIAL TAX The Developer, or the Developer’s successors or assigns, shall provide written notice to all potential initial purchasers of lots advising of the Special Tax obligation which is applicable to the Developer Property in the form required by Section 53341.5 of the Government Code. A sample copy as prepared by the Developer is set forth in Exhibit C. SECTION 6. DESIGN PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS The requirements of this Section 6 shall not apply to any EVWD Improvement that was complete (as determined by the Water District’s Board of Directors) prior to the adoption by the Water District’s Board of Directors of the resolution forming the CFD, but they shall apply to all other EVWD Improvements. All plans, specifications and bid documents for the EVWD Improvements (the “Plans”) which are constructed or to be constructed by the Developer shall be prepared by the Developer at the Developer’s initial expense, subject to approval by the applicable public agency. Costs for preparation of the Plans will be eligible for reimbursement, conditioned upon the final approval of the applicable public agency and the availability of moneys in the Special Fund or Improvement Fund (the “Authorized Funds”). Reimbursement of costs for plan revisions will be considered on a case by case basis. All EVWD Improvements to be acquired with Authorized Funds shall be bid in accordance with “public works” requirements of Section 7.4 to be 8 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 eligible for reimbursement. The Developer shall not award bids for construction, or commence or cause commencement of construction, of an EVWD Improvement until the Plans and bidding documents have been approved by the Water District. The bid opening for EVWD Improvements shall be coordinated with and take place at the Water District’s offices, with Water District personnel in attendance. SECTION 7. CONSTRUCTION OF IMPROVEMENTS The requirements of this Section 7 shall not apply to any EVWD Improvement that was complete (as determined by the Water District’s Board of Directors) prior to the adoption by the Water District’s Board of Directors of the resolution forming the CFD, but they shall apply to all other EVWD Improvements. 7.1 Construction or Acquisition Election. Upon the approval of Plans for an EVWD Improvement, the Developer and the Water District shall determine whether the Developer will provide for construction of such EVWD Improvement in accordance with Sections 7.2, 7.4 and 8 of this Agreement (the “Acquisition Election”) or whether the Water District will provide for construction of such EVWD Improvement in accordance with Section 7.3 of this Agreement (the “Construction Election”). Sections 7.2, 7.4 and 8 specify the requirements for construction of the EVWD Improvements pursuant to the Acquisition Election which the Water District believes are necessary to ensure that such EVWD Improvements are constructed as if they had been constructed under the direction and supervision or under the authority of the Water District. 7.2 Acquisition Election. If the Acquisition Election is selected with respect to EVWD Improvements in accordance with the provisions of Section 8, a qualified engineering firm (the “Field Engineer”) shall be employed by the Developer to provide all field engineering surveys which are determined to be necessary by the Water District’s inspection personnel. The Field Engineer shall promptly furnish to Water District a complete set of grade sheets listing all locations, offsets, etc., in accordance with good engineering practices, and attendant data and reports resulting from the Field Engineer’s engineering surveys and/or proposed facility design changes. The Water District shall have the right, but not the obligation, to review, evaluate and analyze whether such results comply with applicable specifications. A full-time soil-testing firm, approved by Water District, shall be employed by the Developer to conduct soil compaction testing and certification. The Developer shall promptly furnish results of all such compaction testing to the Water District for its review, evaluation and decision as to compliance with applicable specifications. In the event that the compaction is not in compliance with applicable specifications, the Developer shall be fully liable and responsible for the costs of achieving compliance. A final report certifying all required compaction in accordance with the specifications shall be a condition of final acceptance of facilities. The costs of all surveying, testing and reports associated with the EVWD Improvements which are furnished and constructed by the Developer’s contractor(s) shall be eligible to be paid from Authorized Funds in the EVWD Improvements Account. The Water District shall not be responsible for conducting any environmental, archaeological, biological or cultural studies or any mitigation requirements that may be requested by appropriate Federal, State, and/or local agencies. Any such work shall be paid for and conducted by the Developer and reimbursed out of the EVWD Improvements Account. 9 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 7.3 Construction Election. If the Construction Election is selected for an EVWD Improvement, upon the award of a construction contract for an EVWD Improvement to be constructed by the Water District, funds in the EVWD Improvements Account in an amount equal to the costs of the EVWD Improvement shall be reserved for payments under such contract and shall not be available for the funding of other EVWD Improvements until all payments which are required by such contract have been made. At the time of either or both: (i) the execution of a contract for the construction of an EVWD Improvement as to which the Construction Election has been made; and (ii) completion of construction of the EVWD Improvement, the Developer shall be entitled to reimbursement from Authorized Funds in the EVWD Improvements Account of any actual costs of such EVWD Improvements which were incurred by the Developer at that time. If Bonds have not been issued or insufficient funds are reserved in the Improvement Fund, the Water District agrees to accept advances of funds from the Developer (if the Developer agrees to make such advances in its sole discretion) upon the Water District’s award of a construction contract for an EVWD Improvement to be constructed by the Water District in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of reserved funds and the contract amount. The amount of such advances shall be reimbursed to the Developer to the extent of Authorized Funds in the EVWD Improvements Account. 7.4 Public Works Requirements. In order that the EVWD Improvements as to which the Acquisition Election is made may be properly and readily acquired by the Water District, the Developer shall comply with all of the following requirements with respect to any such EVWD Improvements to be acquired with Authorized Funds, and the Developer shall provide such proof to the Water District as the Water District may reasonably require and at such intervals and in such form as the Water District may reasonably require, that the following requirements have been satisfied as to the construction of all such EVWD Improvements: (a) The Developer shall prepare a bid package for review, comment and approval by the General Manager of the Water District or his or her designee (the “District Representative”). (b) The Developer shall, after obtaining at least three sealed bids for the construction of the EVWD Improvements, submit to the Water District written evidence of such competitive bidding procedure, including evidence of the means by which bids were solicited, a listing of all responsive bids and their amounts, and the name or names of the contractor or contractors to whom the Developer proposes to award the contracts for such construction, which shall be the lowest responsible bidder. (c) The District Representative shall attend the bid opening. If the District Representative is unable to attend the bid opening, the District Representative shall approve or disapprove of a contractor or contractors, in writing, within five (5) business days after receipt from the Developer of the name or names of such contractor or contractors which are recommended by the Developer. If the District Representative disapproves of any such contractor, the Developer shall select the next lowest responsible bidder from the competitive bids received which is acceptable to the District Representative. (d) The specifications and bid and contract documents shall require all such contractors to pay prevailing wages and to otherwise comply with applicable provisions of the Labor Code, the Government Code and the Public Contract Code relating to public works projects and as 10 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 required by the procedures and standards of the Water District with respect to the construction of its public works projects. (e) The Developer shall submit faithful performance and payment bonds conforming in all respects to the requirements which are set forth in the Water District’s “Standard Water and/or Sewer Facilities and Service Agreement.” The following documents shall be submitted to the Water District along with the performance and payment bonds: (i) The original, or a certified copy, of the unrevoked appointment, power of attorney, bylaws or other instrument entitling or authorizing the person who executed the bond to do so; (ii) A certified copy of the certificate of authority of the insurer issued by the State of California’s Insurance Commissioner; and (iii) Copies of the insurer’s most recent annual and quarterly statements filed with the Department of Insurance. (f) The Developer and its contractor and subcontractors shall be required to provide proof of insurance coverage throughout the term of the construction of the EVWD Improvements, which they will construct in conformance with the Water District’s standard procedures and requirements. The Water District’s Insurance requirements are set out in Section 21. (g) The Developer and all such contractors shall comply with such other requirements relating to the construction of the EVWD Improvements which the Water District may impose by written notification delivered to the Developer and each such contractor at the time either prior to the receipt of bids by the Developer for the construction of such EVWD Improvements or, to the extent required as a result of changes in applicable laws, during the progress of construction thereof; provided that such other requirements shall only be imposed to the extent that the Water District reasonably determines they are required in order to comply with applicable law. In accordance with Section 8, the Developer shall be deemed the awarding body and shall be solely responsible for compliance and enforcement of the provisions of the Labor Code, Government Code and Public Contract Code. (h) A “Change Order” is an order from the Developer to a contractor authorizing a change in the work to be performed. The Developer shall receive comments from the District Representative prior to the Developer’s approval of any Change Order. The District Representative shall comment on or deny the Change Order request within five (5) business days of receipt of all necessary information. The Water District’s comments to a Change Order shall not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld. The Developer shall not be entitled to be compensated for costs associated with a Change Order that has not been approved by the District Representative. The Developer shall provide proof to the Water District, at such intervals and in such form as the Water District may reasonably require, that the foregoing requirements have been satisfied as to all of the EVWD Improvements as to which the Acquisition Election has been made which are funded through Bond proceeds. 11 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 SECTION 8. INSPECTION; COMPLETION OF CONSTRUCTION The requirements of this Section shall not apply to any EVWD Improvement that was complete (as determined by the Water District’s Board of Directors) prior to the adoption by the Water District’s Board of Directors of the resolution forming the CFD, but they shall apply to all other EVWD Improvements. The Water District shall have primary responsibility for inspecting the EVWD Improvements to assure that the work is being accomplished in accordance with the Plans. Such inspection does not include inspection for compliance with safety requirements by the Developer’s contractor(s). The Water District’s personnel shall be granted access to each construction site at all reasonable times for the purpose of accomplishing such inspection. Upon satisfaction of the Water District’s inspectors, the Developer shall notify the Water District in writing that an EVWD Improvement has been completed in accordance with the Plans. Any actual costs reasonably incurred by the Water District for inspection which has not been previously paid by the Developer shall be reimbursed from Authorized Funds. Within three (3) business days of receipt of written notification from EVWD inspectors that an EVWD Improvement has been completed in accordance with the Plans, the District Representative shall notify the Developer in writing that such EVWD Improvement has been satisfactorily completed. Upon receiving such notification, the Developer shall file a Notice of Completion with the County of San Bernardino Recorder’s Office, pursuant to the provisions of Section 3093 of the Civil Code. The Developer shall furnish to the Water District a duplicate copy of each such Notice of Completion showing thereon the date of filing with the County of San Bernardino (the “County”). The Water District will in turn file a notice with the County for acceptance. SECTION 9. LIENS With respect to any EVWD Improvement that was complete (as determined by the Water District’s Board of Directors) prior to the adoption by the Water District’s Board of Directors of the resolution forming the CFD, prior to any payment by the CFD to the Developer for such EVWD Improvement, the Developer shall provide to the Water District such evidence or proof as the Water District shall require that all persons, firms and corporations supplying work, labor, materials, supplies and equipment for the construction of the EVWD Improvements have been paid, and that no claims of liens have been recorded by or on behalf of any such person, firm or corporation. With respect to EVWD Improvements, upon the earlier of: (i) receipt of all applicable lien releases; or (ii) expiration of the time for the recording of claim of liens as prescribed by Sections 3115 and 3116 of the Civil Code, the Developer shall provide to the Water District such evidence or proof as the Water District shall require that all persons, firms and corporations supplying work, labor, materials, supplies and equipment for the construction of the EVWD Improvements have been paid and that no claims of liens have been recorded by or on behalf of any such person, firm or corporation. SECTION 10. ACQUISITION; ACQUISITION PRICE; SOURCE OF FUNDS The acquisition price of an EVWD Improvement that was complete (as determined by the Water District’s Board of Directors) prior to the adoption by the Water District’s Board of Directors of the resolution forming the CFD shall be its fair market value, as determined by the District 12 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 Representative or his or her designee, as of the date of acquisition. The Water District shall consider input and data provided by the Developer prior to determining the final fair market value. The costs eligible to be included in the acquisition price of an EVWD Improvement that is not described in the preceding paragraph (the “Actual Costs”) shall include: (i) The actual hard costs for the construction of such EVWD Improvement as established by the Water District-approved construction contracts and approved Change Orders, including costs of payment, performance and maintenance bonds and insurance costs, pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) The design and engineering costs of such EVWD Improvement including, without limitation, the costs incurred in preparing the Plans. Costs for Plan revisions will be considered on a case by case basis; (iii) The costs of environmental evaluations and public agency permits and approvals which are attributable to the EVWD Improvement; (iv) Costs incurred by the Developer for construction management and supervision of such EVWD Improvement, not to exceed five percent (5%) of the actual construction cost, subject to prior approval by the Water District of any construction management or supervision contract with respect to an EVWD Improvement; (v) Professional costs associated with the EVWD Improvement such as engineering, inspection, construction staking, materials, testing and similar professional services; and (vi) Costs approved by the Water District in accordance with the Act of acquiring any real property or interests therein required for the EVWD Improvement, including, without limitation, any water tank sites, temporary construction easements, temporary by-pass roads and maintenance easements. Provided that the Developer has complied with the requirements of this Agreement, the Water District agrees to pay the acquisition price of a completed EVWD Improvement to the Developer or its designee within thirty (30) days after the Developer’s satisfaction of the preconditions to such payment stated herein, but only to the extent that there are sufficient Authorized Funds available. Except in the case of an EVWD Improvement which described in the first paragraph of this Section 10, the acquisition price to be paid from Authorized Funds for the acquisition of an EVWD Improvement by the Water District shall be the least of: (1) the value of the EVWD Improvement; or (2) the total of the Actual Costs of the EVWD Improvement. As a condition to the payment of the acquisition price, the ownership of the completed EVWD Improvement shall be transferred to the Water District by grant deed, bill of sale or such other documentation as such public agency may require free and clear of all taxes, liens, encumbrances and assessments, but subject to any exceptions which the Water District determines do not interfere with the actual or intended use of the land or interest therein (including the lien of a community facilities district so long as the subject property is exempt from taxation or is otherwise not taxable by such community facilities district). Upon the transfer of ownership of EVWD Improvements or any portion thereof to the Water District, the Water District shall be responsible for the maintenance of such EVWD Improvements or the portion transferred. Notwithstanding the 13 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 foregoing, the acquisition price of an EVWD Improvement may be paid prior to transfer of ownership and acceptance of the EVWD Improvement if it is substantially completed at the time of payment. The EVWD Improvement shall be considered “substantially complete” when it has been reasonably determined by the Water District to be usable, subject to final completion of such items as are not essential to the primary use or operation of the EVWD Improvement. For purposes of determining the acquisition price to be paid by the CFD for the acquisition of the EVWD Improvements by the Water District (other than EVWD Improvements described in the first paragraph of this Section 10), the value of such EVWD Improvements shall include the construction costs which are specified in the Water District-approved contracts and Water District- approved Change Orders conforming to Section 8. Water District approval is a condition prior to initiation of contract work. However, if the Water District reasonably determines that the additional Actual Costs are excessive and that the value of the EVWD Improvements is less than the total amount of such Actual Costs and such construction costs, the price to be paid for the acquisition of the EVWD Improvements shall be the value thereof as determined by the District Representative; subject, however, to the Developer’s right to appeal to the Water District’s Board of Directors. Upon completion of the construction of an EVWD Improvement, the Developer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Water District a Disbursement Request Form in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit D, copies of the contract(s) with the contractor(s) who have constructed the EVWD Improvement and other relevant documentation with regard to the payments made to such contractor(s) and each of them for the construction of the EVWD Improvement, documentation evidencing payment of prevailing wages, and invoices and purchase orders with respect to all equipment, materials and labor which were purchased for the construction of the EVWD Improvement. The District Representative shall complete its determination of the value of each EVWD Improvement as promptly as is reasonably possible. Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Section 10, the source of funds for the acquisition of the EVWD Improvements or any portion thereof shall be Authorized Funds. If for any reason beyond the Water District’s control the proceedings for the formation of the CFD are not completed or Bonds are not sold, the Water District shall not be required to acquire the EVWD Improvements from the Developer, except to the extent of funds deposited into the Special Fund. In such event, the Developer shall complete the design and construction and offer to the Water District ownership of such portions of the EVWD Improvements as are required to be constructed by the Developer pursuant to the Development Agreement (but only at such times as required by such condition), but need not construct any portion of the EVWD Improvements which it is not so required to construct. In addition to the foregoing, the Water District shall have the right to withhold payment for acquisition of an EVWD Improvement, if: (a) the Developer or any of its affiliates is delinquent in the payment of any Special Taxes levied by the CFD on properties then owned by the Developer or any of its affiliates within the CFD; or (b) the Developer is not then in substantial compliance with a condition or obligation imposed upon the Developer Property by the Water District, including but not limited to, payment of all applicable fees, dedication of all applicable rights-of-way or other property and construction requirements. 14 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 The Water District shall immediately provide written notice to the Developer of the decision to withhold any such payment and shall specify the reason for such decision. If the payment is withheld as a result of the delinquency in the payment of Special Taxes, the notice shall identify the delinquent parcels and the amount of such delinquency. If the payment is withheld as a result of substantial non-compliance with a condition or obligation, the notice shall specify such condition or obligation and what action will be necessary by the Developer to substantially comply with such condition or obligation. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Water District that the Developer has paid the delinquent Special Taxes or complied with the subject condition or obligation, the Water District shall forthwith make all payments which have been withheld pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10. SECTION 11. EASEMENTS AND/OR FEE TITLE OWNERSHIP DEEDS Without limiting the Developer’s right to reimbursement for such grants pursuant to Section 10 above, the Developer shall, at the time that the Water District acquires the EVWD Improvements as provided in Section 10, grant or cause to be granted to the Water District, by appropriate instruments prescribed by the Water District, all easements across private property and/or fee title ownership deeds which may be reasonably necessary for the proper operation and maintenance of such EVWD Improvements, or any part thereof, but only to the extent located within the Developer Property. SECTION 12. PERMITS The Developer shall be responsible for obtaining all necessary construction permits from the city within which the work is to be done, if any (the “City”) and/or the County (as appropriate) covering construction and installation of the EVWD Improvement as to which the Acquisition Election has been made. The Water District will request the City and/or County to issue an “operate and maintain permit” to the Water District, which will become effective upon the completion of the EVWD Improvements and acceptance of ownership therewith by the Water District. SECTION 13. MAINTENANCE Prior to the transfer of ownership of an EVWD Improvement by the Developer to the Water District, as provided in Section 10, the Developer shall be responsible for the maintenance thereof and shall require its contractor(s) to repair all facilities damaged by any party other than the Water District, prior to acceptance by the Water District and/or make corrections which are determined to be necessary by the Water District’s inspection personnel. The Water District shall not be permitted to place any EVWD Improvement in service prior to acceptance of the same, unless the Developer otherwise consents in writing. SECTION 14. INSPECTION OF RECORDS The Water District shall have the right to review all books and records of the Developer pertaining to the costs and expenses incurred by the Developer for the design and construction of the EVWD Improvements during normal business hours by making arrangements with the Developer. The Developer shall have the right to review all books and records of the Water District pertaining to costs and expenses incurred by the Water District for services of the Field Engineer by making arrangements with the Water District. 15 4843-6133-4219v5/022497-0017 SECTION 15. OWNERSHIP OF IMPROVEMENTS Notwithstanding the fact that some or all of the EVWD Improvements may be constructed in dedicated street rights-of-way or on property which has been or will be dedicated to the Water District, each EVWD Improvement shall be and remain the property of the Developer until acquired by the Water District as provided in this Agreement. SECTION 16. MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP WARRANTY The requirements of this Section 16 shall not apply to any EVWD Improvement that was complete (as determined by the Water District’s Board of Directors) prior to the adoption by the Water District’s Board of Directors of the resolution forming the CFD, but they shall apply to all other EVWD Improvements. Upon the completion of the acquisition of an EVWD Improvement by the Water District, the performance bond related to such individual EVWD Improvement provided by the Developer pursuant to Section 7.4(e) shall be reduced by 90%, and the remaining 10% shall serve as a maintenance bond to guarantee that such EVWD Improvement will be free from defects due to faulty workmanship or materials for a period of one year. Release of performance and payment bonds is addressed in the Development Agreement. SECTION 17. CAPACITY IMPROVEMENTS Amounts deposited in the Capacity Improvements Account pursuant to Section 3.4 shall be disbursed at the written direction of the Water District upon the Developer’s submittal of a written payment request at the time or times that water and sewer connection or capacity fees are payable to the Water District. Upon receipt of the Developer’s request for disbursement, the Water District shall submit a written requisition for payment of the requested amount to the CFD Administrator (the “Administrator”), who shall directly pay the amount to the Water District, and the Developer shall receive credit against the applicable water and sewer connection or capacity fees. Pending the disbursement of said monies, the amounts in the Capacity Improvements Account shall be invested as directed in writing by the Water District and investment earnings shall either remain in such account or be transferred to the Improvement Fund to be used as provided in Section 3.4.

John Mura Secretary, Board of Directors Agenda Item #3d December 8, 20211 2 6 2 Meeting Date: December 8, 2021 Agenda Item #3d Public Hearing Regular Board Meeting TO: Governing Board Members FROM: General Manager/CEO SUBJECT: Consider Adoption of Ordinance No. 402 - Establishing Compensation, Benefits, and Authorizing Reimbursement of Expenses and Establishing Training Requirements for the Board of Directors; Public Hearing RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of Directors adopt Ordinance No. 402, replacing Ordinance No. 388 and establishing compensation, benefits, and authorizing reimbursement of expenses and establishing training requirements for the Board of Directors. BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS East Valley Water District is governed by five-members of the community elected at large. Each member is elected to a four-year term. The role of the Board of Directors is to provide oversight and establish the governing policies of the District. The daily meeting stipend pursuant to California Water Code Section 20202 is a daily per diem amount paid to board members for a day of service. The daily meeting stipend cannot be paid for more than a total of ten (10) days in any calendar month and for not more than one meeting or event per day. Pursuant to California Water Code Section 20202, the Board of Directors may review and increase their compensation rate no more than 5% annually. The current rate of compensation paid to the Board of Director is $175.00 per day for each day’s attendance at meetings which has not been adjusted since 2008. In an effort to establish consistency while considering Board of Directors compensation, staff suggests using the average from the comparator agencies the District uses as part of employee negotiations. The average daily meeting stipend of the comparator agencies is $228.76. Staff recommends that the daily meeting stipend be increased to $225.00 and in the future be reconsidered after completion of employee negotiations. If approved, the new ordinance will take effect the 1st day of January 2022.
