DONNE
Public Utility District
Memorandum
To: Board of Directors
From: Peter Holzmeister
Date: August 1, 2003
Subject: Consideration of the various documents relating to the formation of the
Community Facilities District No. 03-1 (Old Greenwood) and Community Facilities
District No. 03-2 (Gray's Crossing)
1. WHY THIS MATTER IS BEFORE THE BOARD
We have been methodically moving toward formation of Community Facilities Districts
for the Old Greenwood and Gray's Crossing developments. We are now at the point in
the process where we need the Board to formally consider a series of actions
implementing the CFDs
2. HISTORY
East West Partners, the developers of Old Greenwood and Gray's Crossing, asked us to
consider forming CFDs as a financing tool for their developments. After considerable
discussion the Board agreed to proceed with formation of CFDs if there was a financial
gain for TDPUD as a whole. I then negotiated a financial package under the terms of
which East West partners would include in the CFDs additional funds for construction of
projects that are critical to the development of the PUD's water system. At that point the
Board authorized us to proceed with the steps needed to form the CFDs
3. NEW INFORMATION
We now have a series of documents prepared by John Murphy and Larry Rolapp that
are part of the process of formation of the CFDs. Those documents are attached for
your review.
The documents are numerous, partly because we are forming two CFDs, one for Old
Greenwood and one for Gray's Crossing. Each CFD has its own set of documents,
although there are essentially identical. The other reason there are so many documents
is the formation process is specific and simply requires a series of steps. The
documents have been prepared by experts in the field. They have been used in the
formation of other CFDs throughout the state, and have stood the test of time.
. ..... .....................................

a) Petition Requesting Initiation of Proceedings For The Establishment of a
Community Facilities District and Waiving Certain Rights In Connection
Therewith (Old Greenwood)

TRUCKEE DONNER PUBLIC UTILITY DISTRICT
STATEMENT OF LOCAL GOALS AND POLICIES
CONCERNING THE USE OF THE
MELLO-ROOS COMMUNITY FACILITIES ACT
OF 1982, AS AMENDED
TRUCKEE DONNER PUBLIC UTILITY DISTRICT
GOALS AND POLICIES FOR COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICTS
I. Introduction
As of January 1, 1994, the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act ("Act") requires any public
agency initiating proceedings to establish a Community Facilities District ("CFD") to first
consider and adopt local goals and policies related to CFD Government Code Section
53312.7(a). At a mimmum, these goals and policies must include the following:
1. A statement of the priority that various kinds of public facilities will have for
financing through a CFD. Public facilities to be owned and operated by public
agencies other than the District must also be included in the statement of priorities.
2. A statement concerning the credit quality which is to be required of CFD bond issues.
This statement must include criteria for evaluating credit quality.
3. A statement concerning the steps to be taken to ensure that prospective property
purchasers are fully informed about the special taxes imposed on property within any
CFD.
4. A statement concerning the criteria to be used for evaluating the equity of tax
allocation formulas (i.e., special taxes allocated to different land use categories). This
statement must include the desirable and maximum special tax levels to be levied
against any CFD properties.
5. A statement establishing the criteria for preparing appraisals, including definitions,
standards, and assumptions to be used in appraisals.
The following are the local goals and policies adopted by Truckee Donner Public Utility
District (the "District") and are intended to meet the requirements of the Act.
11. Priorities for CFD Financing
The priority for CFD financing shall be given to public facilities as follows: (a) facilities
needed to serve approved development which is deficient in infrastructure or other public
facilities needed to develop the area as planned; (b) other facilities for which there is a clearly
demonstrated public benefit and (c) other facilities permitted by the Act.
A-1
DOCSOC�978614v2122925.0007
The improvements eligible to be financed by a CFD must be owned and/or operated by a
public agency except that up to five percent of the proceeds of an issue may be owned and/or
operated by a privately-owned public utility, and must have a useful life which is greater than
the term of the bond issue. The development proposed within a CFD must be consistent with
the planning authority's general plan. The construction or acquisition of improvements
pursuant to a CFD shall not vest any rights to future entitlements on any properties, including
those which are responsible for paying special taxes.
The funding of public facilities to be owned and/or operated by public agencies other than the
District shall be considered on a case-by-case basis. Consistent with the Act, permitted
services may also be considered for inclusion in a CFD.
III. Credit Quality Requirements for CFD Bond Issues
Bonds to be issued by a CFD of the District must satisfy certain credit quality requirements.
Satisfaction of these requirements would not compel the District to issue bonds. The District
may apply other credit criteria in determining whether to issue bonds, and the District may
disregard certain of the criteria if it is determined that such action would not imperil the
security of the bonds or that the issuance of the bonds would accomplish a specified public
policy goal.
A. Value to Debt Ratio
In order to minimize the likelihood of a CFD defaulting on its payment to bond
owners, all CFD bond issues shall require at least a four-to-one property value to
public lien ratio. * Property value may be based on either an appraisal, or on assessed
values as indicated on the county assessor's tax roll or a combination of both. The
appraiser shall be selected by the District, and the appraisal shall be based on criteria
as described below under Section VI of the goals and policies. The appraisal must be
dated within six months of the date the bonds are issued. The public lien amount shall
be based on the size of the bond issue currently being sold, plus any public
indebtedness currently existing against the properties secured by special taxes on
special assessment. Although it is not required that the value to debt/lien ratio be
four-to-one on a parcel by parcel basis, consideration must be given to this ratio when
apportioning special taxes to different parcels, to assure that CFD property owners
will accept their responsibilities for paying the special taxes of each parcel.
* To the extent that other forms of security are provided (i.e. letters of credit, escrow
structures), a three-to-one value to lien ratio will be considered.
B. Reserve Fund
A bond reserve fund equal to the lesser of(i) ten percent of the original proceeds of
the bond issue, (ii) the maximum annual debt service on all outstanding bonds, or(iii)
125 percent of the average annual debt service on all outstanding bonds shall be
required for all bond issues in CFDs where less than 90 percent of the buildable
acreage has been developed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a smaller reserve fund
may be permitted by the District for bond issues in CFDs where a significant portion
of the buildable acreage has been developed and the value to debt ratio for
A-2
DOCOC,978014v2\22925.0007
undeveloped property is in excess of the ratio required in IIIA above. The reserve
fund may be funded with cash or an acceptable reserve surety or other credit facility.
C. Property Tax Delinquency Rates
Property tax delinquency rates on parcels included in a CFD must be no greater than
ten percent on the date on which bonds are issued for that CFD.
D. Development Feasibility
Each bond issue may require a current (dated within six months) CFD absorption
study prepared by a consultant hired by the District, if the District determines that
such objective data are necessary to analyze the feasibility of the project. To the
extent that the appraisal reflects an absorption analysis, this may be determined to
fulfill the purpose of this section.
An inadequate property value to public lien ratio, tax delinquencies in excess of ten
percent, or projects of questionable economic viability may cause the District to
disallow the sale of bond issues or require additional credit enhancement prior to
bond sale.
E. Exceptions
The District may consider exceptions to the above policies for bond issues that do not
represent an unusual credit risk, either due to credit enhancement or other reasons
specified by the District. Furthermore, the District may consider exceptions to these
policies for projects which meet public policy goals relating to affordable housing
and creation of employment opportunities/housing. Bond issues which have less than
a three-to-one value lien ratio but are approved by the District for public policy
reasons must be approved by four-fifths of the members of the District's legislative
body.
IV Disclosure Requirements for Prospective Property Purchasers
A. Disclosure Requirements for Builders and Developers
In order to ensure that prospective property purchasers are fully informed about the
taxpaying obligations imposed under the Act, the District will require that the
requirements of disclosure to prospective property purchasers contained in the Act,
including, but not limited to, Section 53328.3, 53328.5 (including the referenced
sections of the California Streets and Highways Code), 53340.2 and 53341.5, be met.
B. Disclosure Requirements for the Resale of Homes or Lots
The District's administrator which is designated to determine the special tax liability
each year shall also be designated to provide a notice of special taxes to sellers of
property (other than builders or developers) which will enable them to comply with
their notice requirements under Section 11O2.6b of the Civil Code. This disclosure
shall be in a form substantially equivalent to that set forth in California Government
A-3
DOCSOC'9786142A22925.0007
Code Section 53340.2. This notice shall be provided by the District within five
working days of receiving a request for the notice. A reasonable fee may be charged
for providing the notice.
The District's administrator which is designated to determine the special tax liability
each year shall also establish procedures to promptly respond to inquiries concerning
current and future special tax liability.
V. Equity of Special Tax Formulas and Maximum Special Taxes
Special tax formulas shall provide for special tax levels which satisfy the following:
• 110 percent gross debt service coverage for all bonded indebtedness
The reasonable and necessary administrative expenses of the CFD
Additionally, the special tax formula may provide for the following:
• Lease payments for existing or future facilities
• The costs of remarketing, credit enhancement and liquidity facility fees
• The cost of acquisition, construction, furnishing or equipping of facilities
• The accumulation of funds reasonably required for future debt service
• Any amounts required to establish or replenish any reserve fund established in
association with the indebtedness of the CFD
Amounts equal to projected delinquencies of special tax payments
• Any other costs or payments permitted by law
• Costs associated with the release of funds from an escrow account
The special tax formula shall be reasonable and equitable in allocating public facilities costs
to parcels within the CFD. Exemptions from the special tax may be given to parcels which
are publicly owned, are held by a property owners association, are used for a public purpose
such as open space or wetlands, are affected by easements making impractical their
utilization for other than the purposes set forth in the easements, or have insufficient value to
support bonded indebtedness or as otherwise determined by the Board.
The total projected property tax levels for any residential parcel within a CFD shall not
exceed two percent (2%) of the projected initial sales prices of a fully developed parcel (i.e.,
with a completed structure). The total projected property tax level shall include ad valorem
property taxes, special taxes, special assessments, and other direct and overlapping debt
supported by property taxes. Commercial properties which provide economic benefits to the
District may exceed the two percent(2%)property tax level if approved by the District.
A-4
DOCSOCA9786142V22925.0007
The maximum special tax for any developed residential parcel shall not increase at a rate
greater than two percent (2%) annually. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the special taxes
should be structured such that special taxes levied on developed property are consistent year
to year. Unforeseen changes in the special tax needs from year to year should, to the degree
possible, be home by undeveloped property. Under no circumstances shall the special tax
levied on any parcel of developed residential property be increased by more than ten percent
(10%) as a consequence of delinquency or default by the owner of any other parcel.
VI. Appraisal Standards
A. Definition of Appraisal
An appraisal is a written statement independently and impartially prepared by a
qualified appraiser setting forth an opinion of defined value of an adequately
described property as of a specific date, supported by the presentation and analysis of
relevant market information.
B. Standards of Appraisal
A detailed appraisal shall be prepared for complex appraisal problems. A detailed
appraisal shall reflect nationally recognized appraisal standards including, to the
extent appropriate, the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice
(USPAP) of the Appraisal Foundation of the Code of Professional Ethics and the
Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice of the Appraisal Institute. An appraisal
should also generally conform to the Appraisal Standards for Land - Secured
Financings provided by the California Debt and Investment Advisory Commission
("CDIAC"). An appraisal must contain sufficient documentation including valuation
data and the appraiser's analysis of the data to support his or her opinion of value. At
a minimum, the appraisal shall contain the following items:
a. The purpose and/or function of the appraisal, a definition of the property
being appraised, and a statement of the assumptions and limiting conditions
affecting the appraisal.
b. An adequate description of the physical characteristics of the property being
appraised, location, zoning, present use, and an analysis of highest and best
use.
C. Relevant and reliable approaches to value consistent with commonly accepted
professional appraisal practices. If a discounted cash flow analysis is used, it
should be supported with at least one other valuation method, such as a
market approach using sales that are at the same stage of land development.
If more than one approach is utilized, there shall be an analysis and
reconciliation of approaches to value that are sufficient to support the
appraiser's opinion of value.
d. A description of comparable sales, including a description of all relevant
physical, legal and economic factors such as parties to the transaction, source
A-5
oocsoavase 142�2as2s.00w
and method of financing, and verification by a party involved in the
transaction.
e. A statement of the value of real property.
f. The effective date of valuation, date of appraisal, signature and certification
of the appraiser.
C. Conflict of Interest
No appraiser shall have any interest direct or indirect in the real property being
appraised for the District that would in any way conflict with the preparation or
review of the appraisal.
D. Refunding and Restructuring
In the context of a workout or bond restructuring, including a refunding, the
requirement for an appraisal shall be based on findings of the Board in light of the
particular bond structure and the nature of the bondowners of the new restructured
obligations.
VII. Deposits
An initial deposit in an amount of not less than $20,000 for a CFD shall be required. The
deposit shall be placed in a separate trust account held by the District. All costs of the
District and/or its consultants retained during the pre-formation process, the formation
process, and prior to the sale of any Bonds, are to be paid from this account.
If, in the judgment of the District, the costs incurred or projected will cause the balance in
this account to fall below$5,000, a written demand shall be made to the applicant to advance
additional monies sufficient to bring the account to a balance that is projected to meet
remaining costs required to establish the financing District. Failure to advance the requested
monies within ten (10) days of a written demand by the District will results in all processing
of the CFD to cease and no further actions to be taken toward establishing the financing
District until the monies have been received. Waiver of these requirements can be made only
by formal action of the Board.
Monies held in the trust account are to be applied to pay the District and its staff in reviewing
and processing the CFD request as well as the costs of the bond counsel, financial advisor,
special tax consultant, appraiser, all publication expenses, and any other costs determined by
the District to be necessary to establish the CFD.
After formation of a CFD and issuance of CFD bonds, the petitioners may be reimbursed
from bond proceeds for costs paid by the petitioners, however, reimbursement will be limited
to the cost of CFD related consultants and staff costs approved by the District.
