The City Council further directed staff to proceed with recommendations regarding the issuance of bonded debt as detailed in the financing plan. Staff has been proceeding according to the revised schedule for sale of bonds that is attached to this report. The City's financial Advisor, Lora Stovall, of Bartle Wells and Associates, has prepared a summary of the analysis that was made to review the issues of negotiated vs. competitive sale and variable rate vs. fixed rate interest rate modes.

Wynn, City Clerk and ex-off icio Clerk of the City Council of the City of Tustin, California, 12 does hereby certify that the whole number of the members of the City Council is five;' that the above 13 and foregoing Resolution was duly and regularly passed and adopted at a regular meeting of the City 14 Council held on the 1st day of March, 1993 by the 15 following vote: 16 COUNCILMEMBER AYES: COUNCILMEMBER NOES: 17 COUNCILMEMBER ABSTAINED: COUNCILMEMBER ABSENT: 18 Mary E. Wynn, City Clerk 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 Memo To: City of Tustin From: Lora J. Stovall Subject: Issuance of Water Certificates of Participation Date: February 23, 1993 Bartle Wells Associates 1636 Bush Street San Francisco 94109 415/775-3113 FAX 415/775-41,- Charter 15/775-41,Charter member National Association of Independent Public Finance Advisors The material to be considered by the City Council at its March 1 meeting in- cludes the documents necessary for the issuance of certificates of participation for the water system improvements. This memo discusses the recommended ap- proach to selling the certificates, the schedule of activities, and the documents submitted to the Council. The Certificates The amount of the recommended certificate issue is $11.5 million, maturing over 20 years, with approximately equal annual payments. Proceeds of the certifi- cates will be used as follows: New water projects .......................... $ 513422000 Refund 1983 water bonds ...................... 3,860,000 Repay loan to OCWD ......................... 1,388,000 Create reserve fund .......................... 1,065,000 Costs of issuing certificates ..................... 295,000 Total ....................... $11,500,000 Annual debt service is expected to be about $1,040,000. The debt service on the 1983 water bonds is about $550,000 per year; the reduction in interest rate from the refunding will reduce the cost of that debt by about $200,000 per year. Method of Sale At its meeting of September 21, 1992, the Council approved the recommended water rates and the issuance of certificates of participation to finance water sys- tem improvements. .There was some discussion at that meeting as to whether the certificates should be sold by competitive or negotiated sale. Bartle Wells Associates recommends that the certificates be sold by competitive sale, and the proposed resolution and other documents implement that recom- mendation. We believe, based on our professional experience, that the cost to the City on this issue, both in interest rate and issuance costs, will be lower with a competitive sale. The size of the issue is moderate and well suited to competi- tive bidding. The certificates will be secured by water revenues; the water rates needed to pay debt service are in place; the projects do not depend on growth. All of these characteristics make this a strong and straightforward issue which will sell readily by competitive sale, and save the City money. We would recommend serious consideration of a negotiated sale at this time if the issue were not secured by utility revenues. In California today, bonds that are secured by land or development, such as assessment or Mello Roos or rede- velopment agency bonds, need special explanation, and should probably be sold 4 _ City of Tustin February 23, 1993 Page 2 by negotiation. Bonds that are secured by the Cites general fund, in the face of the state's actions reducing local revenues, also require special marketing and the extra costs of a negotiated sale would be justified. This is not the case with a utility revenue issue, such as the water certificates. Council Actions The resolution which the Council will consider authorizes staff (and its advisors) to proceed with the actions necessary to sell the certificates, and specifically does the following things: ■ calls for sealed bids on the certificates as provided in the Notice Inviting Bids; ■ calls for the publication of two notices which invite bids on the certificates; ■ approves a preliminary official statement and authorizes its distribution; ■ authorizes designated officials to take the actions necessary to sell the certificates. Following adoption of the resolution, the preliminary official statement will be printed and distributed to 200 to 300 potential underwriters, investors, rating agencies, and credit analysts. Schedule The notices call for the receipt of sealed bids at 11 a.m. on Monday, April 5, 1993 at the offices of Mudge Rose Guthrie Alexander & Ferdon, in Los Angeles. The bids will be presented to the Council at its meeting that evening. Assuming satisfactory bids, Council will be asked to consider a resolution awarding the cer- tificates to the low bidder. A schedule of the remaining activities leading up to the sale is attached. Basic Documents ■ Preliminary Official Statement: The official statement is the basic disclosure and marketing document about a new bond issue. It should contain all of the information a potential investor needs to know when purchasing the certifi- cates, such as descriptions of the issue, the legal documents, the water system and the project, revenues and sources of funds available- to pay debt service, and information on the City and the economy of the area. This document is a preliminary official statement prior to the issuance of the certificates. Follow- ing receipt of bids for the certificates, it will be finalized with details on the actual interest rates and payments on the certificates, to produce the official statement and provided to the underwriter for distribution to bond purchasers. ■ Notice of Sale and Notice of Intention: These attachments to the resolution are the official advertisements for the certificates, which provide information to bidders on the certificates and the terms of sale. City of Tustin February 23, 1993 Page 3 ■ Installment Purchase Agreement: This is an agreement between the City of Tustin Water Corporation and the City, under which the Corporation agrees to acquire and construct the project for sale to the City. As agent of the Corpo- ration, the City will enter into contracts for the construction of the project. In the agreement, the City agrees to make payments for the project, and cove- nants to establish and maintain water rates and charges which will produce net revenues of not less than 120 percent of annual debt service. ■ Trust Agreement: This is an agreement between the, City, the Corporation, and the Trustee (Bank of America) under which the Trustee agrees to issue the certificates. The Trust Agreement specifies the terms and conditions of the certificates, the flow of funds, covenants, and other details. ■ Assignment Agreement: Under this agreement between the Corporation and the Trustee, the Corporation assigns its rights under the Installment Purchase Agreement to the Trustee for the benefit of the certificate holders. Under this agreement, -the City will make debt service payments directly to the Trustee. ■ Escrow Agreement: This an agreement between the Corporation and Bank of America under which B of A agrees to take the actions necessary to refund the Corporation's outstanding bonds.

Security: Each Certificate represents a direct, undivided proportional interest in the right to receive Purchase Payments made by the City under the Install- ment Purchase Agreement. Purchase Payments have been assigned to Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association, as Trustee. The obligation of the City to make Purchase Payments is a special obligation of the City, payable from net revenues of the Water Fund, as described in the In- stallment Purchase Agreement and the Trust Agreement. The City's obligation to pay the Purchase Payments from the Water Fund is absolute and unconditional, whether or not the project or any part thereof is operating or operable. The payments are not subject to abatement or reduction for any cause whatsoever. The obligation of the City to make Purchase Payments does not constitute a debt of the City or the State of California or of any political subdivision thereof within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limitation or .restriction, and does not constitute an obligation for which the City is obli- gated to levy or pledge any form of taxation or for which the City has levied or pledged any form of taxation. The City will fund from proceeds of the Cer- tificates a Reserve Account in an amount equal to the least of maximum annual debt service, 125% of average annual debt service, or 10% of the proceeds of the Certificates to secure the City's obligation to pay Purchase Payments under the Installment Purchase Agreement. The City will covenant to maintain water revenues sufficient to produce net revenues in each fiscal year of at least 1.2 times debt service with respect to such fiscal year. Net revenues are calculated as gross revenues from water ser- vice charges and all other income derived by the City from ownership, opera- tion, use, or service of the water system, less maintenance and operation ex- penses of the water system. 2 Book -Entry -Only: The Certificates when initially executed and delivered will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as registered owners and nominee for the Depository Trust Company, New York New York ("DTC"), and will be avail- able to ultimate purchasers in book -entry form only in denominations of $5,000, or any integral multiple thereof. Purchasers of the Certificates will not receive certificates representing their interest in the Certificates. Trustee: Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association, Los Ange- les California, as Trustee, will act as agent of the City for payment of the in- terest and principal and prepayment premiums, if any, evidenced and repre- sented by, and for the registration and execution of, the Certificates. Tax -Exempt Status: The legal opinion of Mudge Rose Guthrie Alexander & Ferdon, Los Angeles, California, and Rourke, Woodruff & Spradlin, a Profes- sional Corporation, Orange, California, Co -Special Counsel, that the portion of the Purchase Payments comprising interest, assuming compliance with certain covenants, is excluded from gross income for federal income-tax purposes and is exempt from present State of California personal income taxes, will be fur- nished to the successful bidder.

No bid for less than ninety-nine percent (99%) of par, and accrued interest (which interest shall be computed on a 360 -day year, 30 -day month basis) will be accepted. The lowest net interest cost will be determined by computing the total amount of interest payable on the Certificates from April 1, 1993 to their respective maturity dates, calculated solely on the basis of the Certificates offered in this Notice, and deducting from such total the amount of the premium offered, if any, or adding to such total the amount of the discount offered, if any. In the event two or more bids setting forth identical interest rates, premium, if any, and discount, if any, are received, the City reserves the right to exercise its own discretion and judgment in making the award and may award the Certifi- cates on a pro rata basis in such denominations as the City shall determine. 3 Right of Rejection: The City reserves the fight, in its discretion, to reject any and all bids and to waive any irregularity or informality in any bid.

If the purchase price is not paid in full upon tender of the Certificates, the successful bidder shall have no right to the Certificates or to the recovery of its good faith deposit, or to any allowance or credit by reason of such deposit, unless it shall appear that the Certificates would not be validly issued if delivered to the purchaser in the form and manner proposed, and in the event of such nonpayment the City reserves any and all rights it An 01 may have to recover the agreed purchase price of the Certificates and in addi- tion any damages suffered by it. If a financial surety bond is used, it must be from an insurance company li- censed to issue such a bond in the State of California, and such bond must be submitted to the City or its financial advisor prior to the opening of the pro- posals. The financial surety bond must identify each proposer whose deposit is guaranteed by such financial surety bond.

Cer- tificates maturing 2004 through 2013 are callable at the option of the Cite as a whole or in part as selected by the City in integral multiples of $5,000 on any date on or after April 1, 2003, together with accrued interest thereon. The prepayment price is expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of Certificates to be prepaid as follows: Prepayment Prepayment Date Price April 1, 2003 through March 31, 2004 ......................... 102% April 1, 2004 through March 31, 2005 ......................... 101 April 1, 2005 and thereafter ................................. 100 Security for the Certificates Each Certificate represents a proportional undivided interest in the right to re- ceive purchase payments made by the City under the Installment Purchase Agreement. In the assignment agreement, the Corporation assigns its rights to receive purchase payments to the Trustee for the benefit of the owners of the Certificates. The obligation of the Cit -yr to make purchase payments from water revenues is absolute and unconditional. The City will not discontinue or suspend any pur- chase payments whether or not the project is operable or has been completed or for any cause whatsoever. Reserve Account The Reserve Account established by the Trust Agreement is required to be funded in an amount equal to the least of 10 percent of the proceeds of the Certificates, maximum annual debt service, or 125 percent of average annual debt service. The Reserve Account will be held by the Trustee. Prior to com- pletion of the project, interest earned on the Reserve Account in excess of the reserve requirement will be transferred to the Construction Account on the first business day of each month; after completion of the project, such interest earned will be transferred to the Purchase Payment Account on each purchase payment date. Rates and Charges The City covenants in the Installment Purchase Agreement that it will pre- scribe, revise, and collect charges for the services and facilities of the water 4 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10,193 system in each fiscal year sufficient that net revenues will be at least equal to 1.2 times purchase . payments and 1.0 times all other payments required to be made from gross revenues in that fiscal year. Flow of Funds The Installment Purchase Agreement establishes the following requirements for the application of gross revenues. Gross revenues of the water system are de- posited by the City as received in the Revenue Fund and, by the twentieth day of each month, will be allocated to the following accounts and funds in the priority indicated: ■ First, to the Maintenance and Operation Account, an amount sufficient to pay maintenance and operation expenses; ■ Second, to the Qualified Obligations Account, an amount equal to the sum of 1/12 of the next succeeding principal component and 1/6 of the next succeeding interest payment; ■ Then, to the Surplus Revenue Account; all moneys in the Surplus Account may be used for any lawful purpose of the City. Estimated Sources and Uses of Funds The proceeds of the Certificates, together with certain other funds, will be allo- cated as shown below to pay the design and construction costs of water sys- tem improvements, defease all of the outstanding Corporation lease revenue bonds, repay a loan from Orange County Water District, reimburse certain funds advanced by the City, establish a Reserve Account, and pay the costs associated with issuance of the Certificates.

Under the Escrow Agreement, a portion of the proceeds of the Cer- tificates paid to the Corporation by the City to purchase the water system pur- suant to the Installment Purchase Agreement, together with other moneys, will be deposited into an Escrow Account to be held by the escrow agent. Moneys in the Escrow Account will be used to purchase non -callable direct obligations of the United States of America. Such securities held in trust in the Escrow Account, including subsequent investment earnings therefrom, will be in an amount sufficient to pay principal and interest on the Bonds due on October 1, 1993 and to redeem the outstanding Bonds on October 1, 1993. When the Bonds are retired or redeemed, the escrow bank will be required im- I mediately to transfer to the City any moneys remaining in the Escrow Account and submit 'a final report with respect to the Bonds to the City. Moneys deposited in the Escrow Account to refund the Corporation's Bonds in no way secure the Certificates. Verification Grant -Thornton, Inc., an independent firm of certified public accountants, will verify certain mathematical computations as to the sufficiency of the refunding securities deposited into the Escrow Account to pay, when due on certain dates designated for prior redemption, the principal of, interest on, and premiums in connection with the Bonds, and as to the yield on the Certificates and the re- funding securities purchased with proceeds of the Certificates and deposited in the Escrow Account. Book -Entry -Only System The Depository" Trust Company (DTC), New York, N.Y., will act as securities depository for the Certificates. The ownership of one fully registered Certifi- cate for each maturity as set forth on the cover page hereof, each in the aggre- gate principal amount of such maturin,, will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC. DTC is a limited -purpose trust company organized under the laves of the State of New York, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provi- sions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. 6 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10/93 DTC was created to hold securities of its participants (the "DTC Participants") and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions among DTC Participants in such securities through electronic book -entry changes in accounts of the DTC Participants, thereby eliminating the need of physical movement of securities certificates. DTC Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organization, some of whom (and/or their representatives) own DTC. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a DTC Participant, either directly or indirectly (the "Indirect Participants") . The DTC Participants shall receive a credit balance in the records of DTC. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Certificate (the "Beneficial Owner") will be recorded through the records of the DTC Participant. Benefi- cial Owners are expected to receive a written confirmation of their purchase providing details- of the Certificate acquired. Transfers of ownership interests in the Certificates will be accomplished by book entries made by DTC and, in turn, by the DTC Participants who act on behalf of the Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive Certificates representing their ownership interest in the Certificates, except as specifically provided in the Trust Agreement. DTC may determine to discontinue providing its service with respect to the Certificates at any time by giving notice to the City and discharging its respon- sibilities with respect thereto under applicable. law. Under such circumstances, Certificates are required to be delivered as described in the Trust Agreement. The Beneficial Owner, upon registration of Certificates held in the Beneficial Owner's name, will become the registered owner of the Certificates. The City may determine that continuation of the system of book -entry transfer through DTC (or a successor securities depository) is not in the best interests of the Beneficial Owners. In such event, Certificates will be delivered as de- scribed in the Trust Agreement. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to DTC Participants, by DTC Participants to Indirect Participants, and by DTC Participants and Indi- rect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory and regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. 7 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10/93 Principal, sinking fund, and interest payments on the Certificates will be made to DTC or its nominee, Cede & Co., as registered owner of the Certificates. Upon receipt of moneys, DTC's current practice is to immediately credit the accounts of the DTC Participants in accordance with their respective holdings shown on the records of DTC. Payments by DTC Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary prac- tices, as is now the case with municipal securities held for the accounts of cus- tomers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsi- bility of such DTC Participant or Indirect Participant and not of DTC, the paying agent or the City, subject to any statutory and regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Legal Opinion Legal matters incident to the authorization, "issuance, and sale of the Certifi- cates are subject to the unqualified approving opinion of Mudge Rose Guthrie Alexander & Ferdon, Los Angeles, California, and Rourke, Woodruff & Sprad- lin, a Professional Corporation, Orange, California, co -special counsel. Said opinion will be delivered at the time of delivery of the Certificates. The legal opinion of co -special counsel is not intended to be nor is it to be interpreted or relied upon as a disclosure document or a disclosure opinion or an express of implied recommendation as to the investment quality of the Certificates. For a further description of the opinion of co -special counsel, see "Tax Exemption" below. James G. Rourke, Esq., of Rourke, Woodruff & Spradlin, serves as City Attor- ney to the City. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the City and the Corporation by the City Attorney. Tax Exemption The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), establishes cer- tain requirements which must be met subsequent to the initial execution and delivery of the Certificates for the interest component of purchase payments re- ceived by the owners of the Certificates to be and remain excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Noncompliance with such require- ments could cause the interest component of purchase payments received by the owners of the Certificates to be included in gross income for federal in- come tax purposes retroactive to the date of initial execution and delivery of the Certificates. The City has covenanted in the Installment Purchase Agree- ment and the Trust Agreement to maintain the exclusion of the interest com- 8 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/' 0/93 ponent of purchase payments received by the owners of the Certificates from gross income for federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 103(a) of the Code. In the opinion of Mudge Rose Guthrie Alexander & Ferdon, Los Angeles, Cali- fornia, and Rourke, Woodruff & Spradlin, a Professional Corporation, Orange, California, co -special counsel, under existing law, interest on the Certificates is exempt from personal income taxation of the State of California and, assum- ing compliance with the aforementioned covenant, the interest component of purchase payments received by the owners of the Certificates is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Co -special counsel are also of the opinion that the Installment Purchase Agreement and, therefore, the Cer- tificates do not represent an interest in "specified private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section 57(a) (5) of the Code and, therefore, the interest com- ponent of purchase payments received by the owners of the Certificates will not be treated as a specific preference item for purposes of computing the al- ternative minimum tax imposed by Section 55 of the Code. The interest com- ponent of purchase payments with respect to Certificates received by corpora- tions will, however, be taken into account in determining the alternative mini- mum tax imposed by Section 55 of the Code on 75 percent of adjusted cur- rent earnings over alternative minimum taxable income (determined without regard to this adjustment and the alternative tax net operating loss deduction). Co -special counsel have not undertaken to advise in the future whether any .events after the date of execution and delivery of the Certificates may affect the tax status of the interest component of purchase payments received by the owners of the Certificates. Furthermore, co -special counsel express no opinion as to any federal, state, or local tax law consequences with respect to the Cer- tificates or the interest component of purchase payments received by owners of the Certificates if any action is taken with respect to the Certificates or the proceeds thereof upon the advice or approval of counsel other than co -special counsel. Finally, no assurance can be given that future legislation, or amend- ments to the Code, if enacted into law, will not contain provisions which would directly or indirectly reduce the benefit of the exclusion of the interest component of purchase payments received by owners of the Certificates from gross income for Federal income tax purposes. - Although co -special counsel will render, at the time of delivery of the Certifi- cates, an opinion that the interest component of purchase payments received by the owners of the Certificates is excluded from gross income for Federal 9 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10/93 income tax purposes, an owner's Federal tax liability may be otherwise affected by the ownership or disposition of the Certificates. The nature and extent of such other tax consequences will depend on the owner's other items of income or deduction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, prospective purchasers of the Certificates should be aware that (i) Section 265 of the Code denies a deduction for interest on indebtedness incurred or continued to pur- chase or carry the Certificates or, in the case of a financial institution, that portion of an owner's interest expense allocated to the interest component of purchase payments, (ii) with respect to insurance companies subject to the tax imposed by Section 831 of the Code, Section 832(b) (5) (B) (i) reduces the de- duction for loss reserves by 15 percent of the sum of certain items, including the interest component of purchase payments, (iii) the interest component of purchase payments earned by some corporation could be subject to the envi- ronmental tax imposed by Section 59A of the Code, (iv) the interest compo- nent of purchase payments earned by certain foreign corporations doing busi- ness in the United States could be subject to a branch profits tax imposed by Section 884 of the Code, (v) passive investment income, including the interest component of purchase payments, may be subject to Federal income taxation under Section 1375 of the Code for Subchapter S corporations that have Sub- chapter C earnings and profits at the close of the taxable year if greater that 25 percent of the gross receipts of such Subchapter S corporation is passive investment income, and (vi) Section 86 of the Code requires recipients of cer- tain Social Security and certain Railroad Retirement benefits to take into ac- count, in determining the taxability of such benefits, receipts or accruals of the interest component of purchase payments. co -special counsel have expressed no opinion regarding any such other tax consequences.

Its purpose is to pro- vide financial assistance to the City by acquiring, constructing, and operating or providing for the operation of water facilities. The Corporation has no cap- ital stock or stockholders, but has irrevocably dedicated all of its property and assets to the City. In 1983 the Corporation issued $4.5 million Lease Revenue Bonds, Series A, the outstanding balance of which are being refunded with this issue. Proceeds of the Bonds were used to acquire water facilities of Tustin Water Works, a private company, and to reimburse the City for money advanced to the Corpo- ration. Pursuant to a lease between the City and the Corporation, the City makes annual lease payments to the Corporation, which are used to pay debt service on the Bonds. The lease will terminate upon the issuance of the Cer- tificates. Proceeds of the Certificates will be used, among other purposes, to _ purchase the water system from the Corporation. The Corporation has a five -member board of directors appointed by the Tustin City Council. ■ H. Rex Combs, Jr., President, has served on the Corporation board since 1989 and has lived in the area for 10 years. He is employed as a municipal in- dustry valve products specialist. Mr. Combs is a member of the Marine Base Closure Task Force. He is past president of the board of directors of the Tustin Meadows Community Association, where he is still a board member. ■ Lloyd W. Robbins, Secretary, has lived in the Tustin area for over 20 years. He has served on the Corporation board since 1981 and is a manager of a homeowners' association.

The water system was begun as Tustin Water Works, a privately owned water utility, and was acquired in 1980. TWS has operated the water system since that time. The water system's facilities include transmission and distribution lines, stor- age reservoirs, and wells. The City has recently completed, in conjunction with Orange County Water District, a desalter which removes excess nitrates from groundwater. This facility is helping the City toward its goal of increas- ing the use of groundwater and reducing reliance on more expensive imported water. Water Supply and Use TWS has two sources of water—imported water and groundwater. In a typ- ical year, about 30 percent of the City's water is imported and supplied by the Metropolitan Water District through East Orange County Water District. The remaining 70 percent comes from City -owned wells. Actual water supply from each source varies from year to year. Table shows TWS's water supply and use for 1989/90 through 1991/92. The amounts in the table are in hundred cubic feet (hcf), which is TWS's basic billing unit. Supply and use has varied over the last three fiscal years due to conservation during drought conditions. Water consumption is expected to remain at about S million hcf annually. Over one-half of the annual water sales are to single-family residences. Other customer classes include multiple -family, commercial, industrial, public agen- cies, and landscaping. Table shows annual water sales for 1989/90, 1990/91, and 1991/92 by customer class. ----- [TEXT TO COME: Future Water Supply] 14 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10/93 Water Customers TWS serves approximately 13,550 water consumers, of which about 9,000 are within the City and the remaining 4,550 are outside. The service area is fully developed, and the number of water customers has been essentially stable since 1980. No significant growth within the TWS service area is anticipated. The areas of the City not served by TWS receive water service from Irvine Ranch Water District, a public agency. Table shows the active service connections by, customer class. About 85 percent of the total customers are single-family residential. Tustin Unified School District is the largest water customer, with about 2 per- cent of total water usage. The largest consumers in terms of annual water use are listed in Table . The top 100 users account for about one- quarter of total water consumption. Water Rates In September 1992 the City Council approved new water rates, which appear in Table . The City Council adopted water charges for three fiscal years, 1992/93, 1993/94, and 1994/95. The first rate change became effec- tive in November 1992 for water used beginning in September 1992, and fu- ture rate changes will occur on November 1, 1993 and November 1, 1994. The new water rates were based on a Water Rate Studv and Financing Plan prepared by Bartle Wells Associates in July 1992. The water rate structure consists of meter, charges and volume charges. Meter charges vary by size of meter and are designed to generate about one-third of the annual revenue. This approach is designed to reduce fluctuations in water revenue and to recover a portion of fixed costs, such as debt service. Meter charges differ by meter size and are based on the relative flow capacity of. different -sized meters. All single-family residential customers have a 5/8 -inch meter and it is the most common meter size in the water system. Volume charges consist of ascending block rates per hcf of water consumption. The rate structure is designed to encourage conservation through the use of ascending block rates, that is, as a customer's water use increases, the rate for additional water also increases. Four block rates are employed; the initial rate applies to minimum "lifeline" usage. The blocks at 40 and 60 hcf are based on average residential usage for 5/8 -inch and 1 -inch meters, respectively. 15 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10/93 A typical residential customer with a 5/8 -inch meter using 40 hcf of water in a bimonthly period has a current bimonthly bill of $42.00. This bill is based on the recently approved water rates for 1992/93. The bill for the same usage under prior rates was $35.89. The new water rates increase the bimonthly bill for a typical residential customer by 17 percent from the prior level. Capital Improvement Program The City's water supply and storage facilities were originally constructed by the privately owned Tustin Water Works in the 1960s. In October 1990, Daniel Boyle Engineering prepared a Water System Storage Evaluation Study, which identified numerous shortcomings in the City's water storage system. The shortcomings were categorized into two major groups: (1) structural deficien- cies and (2) inadequate storage volume. The engineering report recommended improvements to existing storage facilities, drilling of two new wells and con- struction of a new reservoir. In response to, the recommendations made in the Daniel Boyle report, the City staff developed a schedule of proposed capital improvement projects. The City staff also prepared a schedule of proposed distribution system improvements. Reservoir improvements consist of the following: Main Street Reservoir: Design and construct a new 2.2 -million -gallon Main Street reservoir. Rawlings Reservoir: Rehabilitate existing reservoir by constructing new retain- ing walls, install access stairway, and conducting a structural analysis of roof and support system; repair roof or expand reservoir. Foothill Reservoir: Remove topsoil and conduct structural analysis and site evaluation of existing reservoir. Design and construct replacement reservoir. Simon Reservoir: Remove topsoil and conduct structural analysis. Design and replace roof. Other capital improvements include construction of a Zone II booster pump station, purchase of portable generator at the Columbus Tustin well, and new wells and a desalter project on existing wells. The well projects will enable the City to increase its use of groundwater from the current average of 70 per- cent of annual water supply to SS percent of water supply by 2000. This will 16 TUSTIN: DRAFT or 2/10193 lower the cost of water because the cost of groundwater is substantially below the cost of imported water, the City's alternate water source. The City also has an ongoing capital improvement program (CIP) for the water distribution system. The CIP projects include replacement and installation of water mains, hydrants, services, and related landscaping. Table lists the capital projects and their costs for supply, storage, and distribution systems for 1992 through 1996. A portion of these capital projects will be financed by the Certificates. Certificate Project Proceeds of the Certificates will be used to finance the design and construction of certain supply, storage, and distribution improvements identified in the cap- ital improvement program. Table summarizes project cost estimates for the projects to be funded from the Certificates. The project elements include the following. ■ Design and site planning for the Main Street reservoir ■ Design and construction of improvements at the Rawlings reservoir ■ Structural analysis and site evaluation at the Foothill reservoir ■ Structural analysis and site plan at the Simon reservoir ■ Site evaluation for the Zone II booster station ■ Purchase of portable generator at the Columbus Tustin well ■ Design and construction of water mains and related distribution facilities The above project elements are being designed. For distribution system facil- ities the City plans to award design contracts to outside consultants during April through June 1993 and anticipates completion of construction of the CIP distribution facilities by November 1994. The project also includes repayment of a loan from Orange County Water Dis- trict, the proceeds of which were used to finance a desalter on the Main Street well. 17 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10/93 Water Finances The City of Tustin accounts for water service operations as a water enterprise fund. Financial data, such as balance sheet, revenue and expense statement, and cash flow statement, are prepared for the water enterprise fund as part of the comprehensive annual financial report for the City. The water .enterprise fund accounts for operations that are financed in a man- ner similar to private business enterprises in that the costs of providing service to the general public are recovered through user charges. Financial statements for the Enterprise Fund use the accrual basis of accounting, in which revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred. Property and equipment acquired by the Enterprise Fund are capi- talized at cost at time of purchase. Assets acquired from gifts or contributions are recorded at fair market value at the time received or, in the case of water distribution assets, at the City Council acceptance date. Depreciation on water system assets is calculated with the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. Table shows the revenues, expenses, and changes in retained earn- ings for fiscal years 1990 through 1992. Charges for service include all water sales revenue and all water charges. Operating revenues from water charges decreased over the last three fiscal years. This decrease has been due to man- datory rationing in the spring of 1991 and voluntary conservation since that time, which resulted in decreases in water sales. The City has adopted rate in- creases, which are described under "Water Rates." In 1992, nonoperating revenues included an intergovernmental grant of $473,022 from Caltrans for reimbursement of City expenditures for water im- provements in conjunction with freeway construction. Table shows cash flows for fiscal years 1990 through 1992. Net cash provided by operating activities has increased from 1990 to 1992. How- ever, uses of cash flow have increased more than annual net cash from opera- tion, as cash has been applied to the acquisition and construction of capital improvements. Table shoves the 1992/93 water fund budget adopted by the City Council. The budgeted amount shown in this table for water charge revenue does not reflect the rate increases the Council approved in September 1992. Total revenues do, however, include all -other sources, which consist of meter 18 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2110193 charges, demand charges, and other fees. The newly enacted water rates are expected to increase water revenues in 1992/93 to abput $5.4 million. Table is the water fund balance sheet as of June 30, 1990 through 1992. Water Debt The City of Tustin Water Corporation issued $4.5 million of lease revenue bonds in 1983 for expenses related to the acquisition of Tustin Water Works; the water facilities were leased to the City. Water revenues are applied to lease payments to the Corporation. A portion of the proceeds of the Certifi- cates will be used to purchase the water system from the Corporation. The Corporation will apply the funds received to refund all of the outstanding bonds. The City has also entered into lease purchase agreements with Orange County Water District (OCWD) for desalters. Proceeds of the Certificates will be used to repay the balance of the agreement related to the Main Street desalter. An additional desalter is under development, and lease agreements in connection with this desalter are expected to begin in 1994/95. The City expects to finance new wells with low-cost loans through OCWD's conjunctive use program. This program provides low-interest loans to finance construction or rehabilitation of wells in order to promote greater conjunctive use of imported and local water supplies. Prospective participants must satisfy certain criteria. Under the program, OCWD will make loans to water pro- ducers at an interest rate of 3.5 percent for a term of up to 20 years. OCWD's funding limits are $750,000 per well and three wells per participant. The City has applied to OCWD for funding of its well projects. Projected Revenues and Expenses Table - projects revenues and expenses for TWS for 1992/93 through 1997/98. The table shows all operating revenues and expenses, ex- pected purchase payments for the Certificates and for future issues, capital ex- penditures, consideration of transfers to other funds, and coverage ratios. The assumptions and calculations used in the table are detailed as follows. Beginning Balance: A beginning balance in the water fund is shown for each fiscal year; the July 1, 1992 balance is the sum of the amounts available in the City's water fund at the start of the current fiscal year. 19 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 21110/93 Water Charges: The 1992/93 revenue from water charges take into account the new rates the City Council approved in September 1992, which went into effect in November 1992. Revenues for 1993/94 and 1994/95 are based on the rates approved by the City Council for those two fiscal years. Future reve- nues are increased as necessary to produce water revenue to cover all pro- jected expenses and satisfy coverage ratios and fund balance requirements. Interest Income: Interest income is calculated on the each fiscal year's average balance at an assumed investment rate of 5 percent. O&M Expenses: O&M expenses include the costs for personnel, water supply, facilities maintenance, and other miscellaneous items. The O&M costs for 1992/93 are based on six months of operation and maintenance of the water system during 1992/93. For future years, water supply costs are based on TWS's forecasts of expected increases in costs for groundwater and imported water. All other, O&M expenses are escalated at 5 percent per year. Debt Service: Projected debt service includes expected purchase payments on the Certificates, repayment of loans to OCWD, and purchase payments on future certificate issues in 1994/95 and 1996/97. The actual timing and size of future certificates will depend on actual project costs and construction scheduling. All installment payments are based on a 20 -year term and an interest rate of 6.5 percent. The OCWD loans finance the three new wells and an additional desalter. Capital Expenditures: Capital expenditures include the project to be financed with the Certificates, other capital items budgeted for 1992/93, and future cap- ital improvements to reservoirs, wells, and distribution facilities. In April 1993, the City will use proceeds of the Certificates to pay OCWD the balance remaining on the loan associated with the nitrate plant and reimburse other City reserves used to make the initial payment in October 1992. Transfers to Other Funds: Transfers to the general fund are based on the 1992/93 budget, plus 5 percent per year. Ending Balance: The ending balance is calculated as a fiscal year's total reve- nue less total expenses and then added to that year's beginning balance. The City has adopted a policy of maintaining balance in the water fund of not less 20 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10/93 than 5 percent of annual operating expenses plus 10 percent of plant value. The ending balances shown in the table satisfy this policy. Coverage Ratios: Table shows coverage ratios for the Certificates as well as additional parity certificates when issued. The coverage ratios in the table range from as low of 1.78 times in 1994/95 to as high of 2.64 times in 1995/96. Funding for Additional Projects The financing plan approved by the City Council anticipates the need for addi- tional borrowing for the projects shown for 1994/95 and 1995/96 in Table through the issuance of additional certificates. 21 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10/93 THE CITY OF TUSTIN The City of Tustin covers approximately 11.2 square miles in central Orange County in Southern California. Tustin is bounded by the Cities of Orange to the north, Santa Ana to the west, and Irvine to the south. The City is approx- imately 37 miles southeast of Los Angeles and 88 miles north of San Diego. It has a temperate climate with a mean average temperature of 67 degrees and average annual rainfall of 14.5 inches. The City of Tustin was founded in 1868 by Columbus Tustin, when he and his partner, Nelson Stafford, purchased 1,300 acres of Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana, originally a Spanish land grant. Tustin and Stafford divided their pur- chase, and Tustin starred Tustin City on his portion. The orange industry (hence the name of the county) in Tustin began in 1875, when the first sizeable grove was planted. Tustin was soon surrounded by orange, walnut, and apricot orchards. Between 1900 and 1950 the orange groves gradually took over from the other crops and processing citrus fruits was the City's primary industry. In the 1950s Tustin's urban development began in earnest. The City became primarily a residential and commercial community, which is its current development. Municipal Government Tustin is a general law city, incorporated on September 21, 1927. The City operates under a council-manager form of government. Five City Council members are elected at large for overlapping four-year terms; the Council elects one of its member as mayor. The City Manager is appointed by the Council and serves as the administrative head of the City. The City Manager implements Council directives and policies and manages the operational func- tions of the Ciry. The City staff is organized into departments, which provide police, community development, maintenance, general administration, community service, and capital improvements. The City has 250 full-time positions. Tustin Water Ser- vice has 21.5 full-time staff. 22 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10/93 Biographical information of members of the City Council and senior manage- ment follows.

City of Tustin General Fund For financial reporting purposes, the City of Tustin has adopted the provisions of Statement No. 1 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board and fol- lows the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to state and local governments. The City groups its accounts according to types of funds. For governmental funds the City uses a modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recorded when measurable and available to fi- nance expenditures of the current period. Expenditures, other than principal and interest on long-term debt and employee -compensated absences, are re- corded when the liability is incurred. The City's funds and account groups are independently audited each year. Table 4.5 summarizes the revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for general fund for fiscal years 1990, 1991, and 1992. The general fund's largest revenue source has been sales taxes. In 1992, sales taxes reve- nue was approximately 40 percent of total revenues. In 1990, it was 36 per- cent of total revenues. ------ [TEX7 TO COME: Impact of State Budget] The City's general fund accounts for all financial resources not accounted for in other funds. Table 14— compares the general fund's balance sheet for June 30, 1990, 1991, and 1992. Direct and Overlapping Bonded Debt Table details direct and overlapping debt for the City of Tustin as of April 2, 1992. The table shows for Tustin Water Corporation the outstand- ing lease revenue bonds to be refunded. 24 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2'10/93 Assessed Valuation Property taxes in California are levied according to Article MIIA of the State Constitution. Property is assessed at 100 percent of full cash value. It is as- sessed at its market value when constructed or upon change of ownership. If real property is improved, assessed value may increase relative to the improve- ment. The value of property that does not change ownership may be adjusted annually by not more than 2 percent. A county assessment roll does not pur- port to be proportional to market value. California law also provides property tax exemptions for owner -occupied resi- dences and for business inventories. Revenues lost to public agencies due tp these two exemptions are fully reimbursed by the state. California counties, such as Orange County, levy ageneral property tax of 1 percent of assessed valuation. The levy is allocated to the county, cities, and special districts in accordance with state law. Property taxes greater than the 1 percent levy may be levied on properties in individual jurisdictions to pay debt service on general obligation bonds and for certain other voter -approved purposes. In accordance with California law, the Orange County Tax Collector collects taxes and periodically remits them to Tustin, according to an established schedule. Table / 5� shows assessed value of taxable property within the City for 88 through 1991/92. Data is shown for real and personal property. Total assessed value grew from $2.0 billion in 1987/88 to $3.0 billion in 1991/92, at an average annual growth rate of 11 percent. Table lists the principal taxpayers for June 30, 1992. .The Irvine Company was the largest property owner, property valued at almost 10 per- cent of the City's total assessed valuation. The ten largest taxpayers account for 15 percent of the City's assessed valuation for fiscal year 1992. Tax Levies and Delinquencies Table / shows for the City a five-year history of tax levies, tax col- lections, percent of levy collected and delinquent tax collections. For each of the last five fiscal years, tax delinquencies have been less than S percent of the tax levy. 25 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10193 PropeM,, tax revenue is recognized in the fiscal year for which taxes have been levied. The property tax calendar is as follows: One-half of taxes are due on November 10 and become delinquent on Decem- ber 11. The second half is due on February 10 and are delinquent on April 11. A 10 percent penalty is added to any late payment. On June 30, delinquent properties are sold to the State. Property owners may redeem property upon payment of delinquent taxes and penalties. Properties sold to the State incur a redemption penalty of 1.5 per- celit of the taxes due per month. Properties may be redeemed under an installment plan by paying current taxes plus 20 percent of delinquent taxes for five years. Interest accrues at 1.5 per- cent per month on the unpaid balance. If no payments have been made on delinquent taxes at the end of five fiscal years, the property is deeded to the State. Such properties may thereafter by conveyed by the county tax collector as provided by law. Population Tustin grew along with all of Orange County during the economic boom of the 1960s. From a population of 2,006 in the 1960 U.S. census, the City grew to 21,178 in 1970, 32,073 in 1980, and 50,689 in 1990. According to State Department of Finance estimates, Tustin's population in 1992 was 54,700. The 1992 population estimate represents a 70 percent increase from 1980, or an average annual increase of 6 percent. Table / shoves the City's and Orange Countys population from 1980 through 1992 and each year's per- centage change. Tustin's population is approximately 2 percent of the total population of Orange County. As Table It indicates, Tustin's annual percentage changes were greater than for the county as a whole in almost all years. Orange County's population increased 30 percent from 1980 to 1992, an aver- age annual increase of 2.5 percent. Over the same period, Tustin grew at a faster rate of 4.6 percent per year. Construction Activity Table i y presents the construction activity within Tustin for the fiscal years 2.988 through 1992. The value of building permits increased from 1988 26 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10/93 through 1990 for commercial and residential construction. They decreased in 1991 and 1992, reflecting the economic downturn occurring throughout the U.S. Housing According to the Tustin Chamber of Commerce, there were approximately 20,200 households in Tustin in 1991. About 40 percent of homes are owner - occupied. Data on housing sales and median sale price is not available specifically for Tustin. Data is, however, compiled for eastern Orange County, which includes Tustin as well as the cities of Orange and Santa Ana. Table 2U shows number of housing sales and median sales prices for 1990, 1991, and 1992 for east Orange County. Sales of single-family residences were 2,088 in 1990 and 2,165 in 1992. The median sales price of single-family residences increased from $218,333 in 1990 to $221,675 in 1992. Retail Trade Taxable sales have increased from 1987 through 1991, as shown in Table 2/ _ . Approximately three-quarters of the sales are made by retail stores. Retail sales tax permits have also increased from 507 in 1987 to 635 in 1991. The primary retail area is located in central Tustin and includes commercial property owned by Larwin Square Limited, the fourth largest taxpayer in Tustin. Income Table 2'2.._ compares median household effective buying income (EBI) for the City of -Tustin, Orange County, the State of California, and the U.S. Sales and Marketing Management magazine reports EBI for different cities and counties within the U.S. The magazine defines EBI as personal income less personal tax and non -tax payments, such as social security deductions, and is often referred to as disposable or after-tax income. Tustin's EBI increased by -- almost 10 percent between 1990 and 1991. 27 TUSTIN: DRAFT OF 2/10/93 Employment Employment data is not available for the City; information is, however, avail- able for Orange County. Tustin is included within the Anaheim -Santa Ana - Garden Grove Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), which encompasses all of Orange County. Table 2-B shows data on employment and unemploy- ment in Orange County. While the unemployment rate for Orange County in- creased from 1990 to 1992, it remained lower than for all of California and the U.S. For example, the October 1992 unemployment rate for Orange County was 6.6 percent, but for California it was 9.3 percent and for the U.S. it was 6.8 percent. Table shows wage and salary employment in Orange County by major industry: agriculture, goods -producing, and service -producing. Most employment in Orange County is related to the service industry and its relative percentage has been increasing. Agriculture and manufacturing employment has declined, while service employment has grown over the 1987-1992 period. Table 7 -Sr lists major employers within Tustin. The Marine Corps Air Station is the City's largest employer, with 4,000 employees. The air station's population is approximately 1,250 personnel. The air station is scheduled to be closed in 1997, but its housing will remain. The City and the federal gov- ernment are studying what to do with the property. Transportation Interstate 5 and State Route 55 both pass through Tustin. Three other free- ways are within five miles of the City. Orange County (John: Wayne) Airport is located five miles from Tustin. Eleven scheduled airlines provide daily service. Santa Fe Railroad provides freight ser- vice through Tustin on scheduled daily stops, and an Amtrak passenger station is located two miles away in Santa Ana. Orange County Transit provides bus service within Tustin.
