AGREEMENT WITH TWO DEVELOPERS FOR ACQUISITION,
POINSETTIA LANE, EL FUERTE STREET AND EL CAMINO REAL
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2003-023 approving agreement with Lennar Bressi Ranch Venture
LLC, a California limited liability company, and Real Estate Collateral Management Company, a
Delaware corporation, for acquisition, construction and financing of improvements to Poinsettia
Lane, El Fuerte Street and El Camino Real including sewer, water and trail facilities for Financing
District No. 2001-01.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
On July 10, 2001, City Council authorized staff to work on the formation of a financing district to fund
the construction of certain major road improvements including portions of Poinsettia Lane, El Fuerte
Street and El Camino Real. On October 3, 2001 Council approved Resolution No. 2001-318
approving the Villages of La Costa project and on July 9, 2002, Council approved Resolution No.
2002-205 approving the Bressi Ranch project. As conditions of approval for the Villages of La Costa
and Bressi Ranch projects, the developers, Real Estate Collateral Management Company
(RECMC), a Delaware corporation and Lennar Bressi Ranch Venture LLC (Bressi), a California
limited liability company, respectively, are required to financially guarantee and to construct portions
of Poinsettia Lane, El Fuerte Street and El Camino Real including appurtenant sewer and water
utilities and adjacent citywide trail facilities. The limits of the road improvements proposed for
inclusion in the financing district are as follows:
o Poinsettia Lane to full major arterial road standards from El Camino Real to the existing westerly
terminus of Poinsettia Lane located just east of the future El Fuerte Street.
o El Fuerte Street to full secondary arterial road standards from Palomar Airport Road to the
existing northerly terminus of El Fuerte Street located just north of Rancho Pancho.
o El Camino Real northbound frontage lane including curb and gutter, sidewalk and median
improvements from Palomar Airport Road to just south of Camino Vida Roble, from Poinsettia
lane to a few hundred feet north of Poinsettia Lane and along few hundred feet of frontage at a
location half way between Cassia Road and Camino Vida Roble.
In addition to the road improvements, the developer is requesting to include, within the
system located within and/or adjacent to the dedicated rights-of-way for these roads. The
improvements to be acquired, certain sewer and water utilities and a portion of the citywide trail
developers are required to install the utility and trail improvements as a condition of their project
approvals. Since the sewer and water utility improvements are subject to reimbursement from sewer
and water connection fees, only those costs, incurred by the developers in constructing these utility
improvements, in excess of the sewer and water reimbursement will be eligible for reimbursement
from the proposed special financing district.
Due to the time it takes to create a special financing district, the developers have expressed a need
to proceed with construction of the specified public improvements proposed for inclusion in the
financing district in advance of the creation of the district. This situation is fairly common and can be allowed at the discretion of the City Council. Typically, the property owner(s) and public entity
sponsoring the financing district enter into an acquisition agreement that specifies the conditions
under which the property owner(s) may proceed with the construction of the designated facilities
and expect to receive reimbursement for the cost of eligible improvements. The City entered into
Page 2 of Agenda Bill No.
similar agreements with the developers of Calavera Hills Phase 11, Carrillo Ranch, Carlsbad Ranch
and Aviara for the construction of portions of Alga Road, Poinsettia Lane, College Boulevard,
Cannon Road and Melrose Drive.
City staff, working in concert with City bond counsel and the developers, Bressi and RECMC,
developed the attached acquisition agreement allowing Bressi and RECMC to proceed with
construction of the public facilities included within the financing district scheduled for formation in
which the City will acquire qualifying improvements subject to the approval of the Deputy Public
2003. Under the agreement, the developers must construct the improvements to City standards after
Works Director for Engineering Services. The terms of the agreement were reviewed and approved
by the Special District Review Committee (Policy 33) and found to comply with all applicable City
policies.

FISCAL IMPACT:
There will be no long-term costs to the City. There will be some staff time expended during the
formation of the District; however, these costs will be recovered from the developer funds placed on deposit with the City in advance of the formation of the District and/or through the bond issuance.
The cost of all facilities and infrastructure to be constructed by the District will be funded though the
issuance of bonds. The Developer is requesting the ability to pass through the costs of the
improvements to future property owners. Thus, the bonds are expected to be repaid through
assessments placed on the property within the District boundary. While the terms of any bond
issuance are subject to Council approval in the future, the agreement does provide the following
limits according to current Council policies:
1, The value to lien ratio for the total project and on a village by village basis must be 4:l (lower
2. Assessments, taxes and special taxes on a residential property tax bill shall not exceed 1.8%
ratio is acceptable at City's discretion if appropriate credit enhancement is provided)
of the sales price of the newly developed properties.
These limits provide assurance that the assessments on the future property owners will not be
excessive in comparison to other developments within Carlsbad and in comparison to other cities.
The agreement also states that the developer assumes all risk for financing of the improvements to
be acquired. In the event the District is not formed or the bonds not issued, the City is under no
obligation to compensate the developer for the improvements from the General fund or any other
City funding source.
In addition, the agreement also clearly states that the decision of the City Council to form the District
future City Council to approve formation of the District.
is a legislative action and that approval of this agreement does not commit the City Council or any
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS:
The City Council, at their meetings on October 3, 2001 and July 9, 2002 passed Resolution No.%
2001-318 and 2002-205 certifying EIR No. 98-07 and 98-05, respectively. These EIRs cover the
construction of the designated portions of Poinsettia Lane, El Fuerte Street and El Camino Real that
are subject to the proposed improvement acquisition agreement including the appurtenant sewer
and water utilities and citywide trail improvements.

by the applicable Developer, labor disputes, acts of God, war, riots, insurrections, civil commotions,
moratoriums, inability to obtain labor or materials or reasonable substitutes for either, fire, unusual

Execution Copy
Price for the acquisition of such Improvement pursuant to this Agreement may be terminated by the
City by providing ten (IO) calendar days written notice to the applicable Developer, with a copy to
each of the other Developers. Upon termination, the City may in its sole discretion then proceed to
advertise and bid the balance of the construction of such Improvement, and except as provided in
the following sentence there will be no further obligation on the part of the City for payment of the
Purchase Price for such Improvement due to the applicable Developer pursuant to this Agreement.
If, following the completion of the construction of such Improvement pursuant to a contract awarded
by the City, there are surplus Bond proceeds that are eligible and authorized to be used to finance
the acquisition of such Improvement, the Developer shall be entitled to payment to the extent of such
funds of an amount equal to the costs, as determined by the City Engineer, incurred by the Developer
prior to such termination for the construction of such Improvement.
In the event that the City chooses not to advertise and bid the balance of the construction of
any such Improvement following such a termination, any monies remaining in the improvement fund
for the Financing District and set aside for the acquisition of such Improvement shall be transferred
to the redemption fund for the Bonds and used to call outstanding Bonds.
The provisions of this Section 11 shall constitute a cumulative remedy for the failure of a
Developer to complete the construction of an Improvement by the deadline date set forth in the
applicable Subdivision Improvement Agreement. Exercise by the City of its rights provided by this
Section 11 shall not constitute a waiver of any remedy that the City may have under the applicable
Subdivision Improvement Agreement in the event of a default by the Developer thereunder.
SECTION 12. Agreement Contingent. This Agreement is contingent upon the formation of the
Financing District, the authorization by the owners of property within the Financing District to levy
assessments or special taxes therein and the successful sale of Bonds, and it shall be null and void
if the first series of Bonds is not sold within a five (5) year period following the date of this
Agreement This time period within which the first series of Bonds must be sold can be extended by
request of the Developers and concurrence of the City Council.
The City may, at its option, suspend the performance of its obligations under this Agreement
if, during the 30-day statute of limitations period following the formation of the Financing District,
any legal challenge is filed relating to the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Financing
District proceedings or the issuance of the Bonds. The obligations of the City hereunder shall be
reinstated upon the entry of a final judgment in any such proceedings upholding the validity and
enforceability of the Agreement, the Financing District proceedings and the issuance of the Bonds.
In the event that a final judgment or other final and non-appealable resolution is entered invalidating
or declaring unenforceable this Agreement, the Financing District proceedings or the issuance of the
Bonds, the City may, at its option, terminate this Agreement by giving thirty (30) calendar days
advance written notice of such termination to the Developers.
SECTION 13. Notice of Assessment or Special Tax. Developers, or the successor or assigns of the
Developers, shall provide written notice of the assessment or special tax, as applicable, as required
by the Financing District Law and/or the City Financing District Policies to all potential purchasers
of lots as required under a disclosure program and in a form or forms approved by the City Council
prior to the sale of Bonds.

Improvements by City and the sale of the Bonds for the payment of acquisition costs for such
Improvements and such other amounts as are herein provided, and is not intended to be a public

series of bonds secured by unpaid assessments or special taxes, as applicable, for each of the Bressi
Ranch Property and the La Costa Greens Property in the Financing District (the “Bonds”) to be

properties within the Bressi Ranch Property or the La Costa Greens Property, as applicable, shall be
at least four (4) times the Land Secured Debt (defined below) allocable to the properties within each
such benefit or improvement area and (ii) the aggregate appraised value of all properties within each
discrete development area designated by the Finance Director within the Bressi Ranch Property or
the La Costa Greens Property, as applicable, shall also be at least four (4) times the Land Secured
Debt (defined below) allocable to the properties within each such discrete development area. “Land
Secured Debt” means as to any taxable property, the principal amount of all outstanding Bonds
allocable to such property, together with the principal amount of any other indebtedness of any
community facilities district secured by the levy of special taxes which is allocable to such parcel
and the principal amount of any other fixed lien assessment levied against such property. The
appraised value of such property for purposes of this paragraph shall be determined by an
independent appraisal undertaken for the City utilizing appraisal assumptions approved by the City.
The City may, in its sole discretion, accept a lower ratio of appraised value to Land Secured Debt
or accept a form or forms of credit enhancement such as a letter of credit, cash deposit, Bond
insurance or the escrow of Bond proceeds to offset a deficiency in the required value-to-debt ratio.
B. Ageregate Taxes and Assessments. In addition to and as a separate requirement, the total of
the following taxes, assessments and special taxes appearing on the property tax bill for residential
dwelling units, shall not exceed one uoint eight oercent (1.8%) of the sales price of newly developed

(2) Voter approved ad valorem property taxes in excess of one percent (1%) of the
assessed value of the subject property.
(3) The estimated annual special taxes levied by all community facilities &stricts under
consideration and any other community facilities district or other public agency.
(4) The annual assessment installments, including administrative surcharge, for any
existing or proposed assessment district whether such assessment installments are
utilized to pay debt service on bonds issued for such assessment district or to pay for
maintenance or services.
C. Funds and Accounts. The proceeds of each series of the Bonds shall be used in the following
priority to (i) fund a reserve fund for the payment of principal and interest with respect to such
Bonds; (ii) fund capitalized interest on such Bonds in an amount approved by the City; (iii) pay for
costs of issuance of such Bonds including, without limitation, underwriter’s discount, bond counsel
fees, printing, and fiscal agent fees; (iv) pay for that portion of the costs of forming the Financing
District allocable to the Bressi Ranch Property or the La Costa Greens Property, as applicable, for
which such series of the Bonds is being issued, including reimbursement of advances of funds to the
City by Developers to pay costs incurred by the City in the formation of the Financing District and
the issuance of the Bonds; and (v) pay the proportionate share of the costs of acquisition of the
Improvements allocated to the Bressi Ranch Property or the La Costa Greens Properly, as applicable,
for which such series of the Bonds is being issued pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and
consistent with the priorities set forth herein. The documents providing for the issuance of each
series of the Bonds shall provide for the establishment of separate funds and accounts for each such
series of the Bonds; provided, however, this requirement shall not apply to any bonds issued to
refund any or all series of the Bonds.
D. Conditions of the Sale of Bonds. The timing of the issuance and sale of each series of the
Bonds, the terms and conditions upon which such Bonds shall be issued and sold, the method of sale
of such Bonds and the pricing thereof shall be determined solely by the City and shall conform to
the applicable policies of the City and this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the City shall
not issue and sell any series of Bonds without first meeting and consulting with the applicable
Developer or Developers regarding the timing, terms and conditions and method of sale of such
Bonds. The sale of each series of the Bonds shall be subject to receipt by the City of a competitively
bid or negotiated bond purchase agreement which is acceptable to the City. The sale of each series
of the Bonds shall also be conditional upon the preparation of an official statement that is, in the sole
judgment of the City, “deemed final” as such term is used in Rule 15~2-12 of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “Rule”).
Each Developer, on behalf of itself, any affiliates of each such Developer and any successor
or assign of each such Developer, agrees (a) to provide all information regarding the development
of its property within the Financing District, including the financing plan for such development,
which are necessary to ensure that the official statement for such series of the Bonds secured by such
Developer’s property within the Financing District complies with the requirements of the Rule and
all other applicable federal and state securities laws; (b) to enter into a continuing disclosure
agreement to provide such continuing disclosure pertaining to the Financing District, the
development thereof and each such Developer as necessary to ensure ongoing compliance with the

continuing disclosure requirements of the Rule and (c) to cause its counsel to provide an opinion of
such counsel in a form satisfactory to the underwriter of such series of the Bonds and underwriter's
counsel or disclosure counsel, as applicable. .
