APPROVED BY COUNCIL: XX/XX/2023 Page 24 of 501 Item 5c Department: Finance Cost Center: 2001 For Agenda of: 8/15/2023 Placement: Consent Estimated Time: N/A FROM: Emily Jackson, Finance Director Prepared By: Brent Taylor – Financial Analyst, Infrastructure Finance SUBJECT: ANNUAL SPECIAL TAX LEVY REPORT FOR THE CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 2019-1 (SAN LUIS RANCH) FOR FY 2023/24 RECOMMENDATION Receive and file the Annual Special Tax Levy Report for the City of San Luis Obispo Community Facilities No. 2019-1 (San Luis Ranch) for FY 2023/24. POLICY CONTEXT On July 18, 2017, Council approved the San Luis Ranch Specific Plan and determined it was consistent with the City’s General Plan. An evaluation of the project's consistency with General Plan policies is discussed at length in Section 4.9 of the certified Final Environmental Impact Report. The Specific Plan required that funding mechanisms be included to ensure that public infrastructure was coordinated with future development under the plan. The formation of a Communities Facilities District (CFD) was consistent with this requirement. On April 16, 2019, the Council adopted Resolution No. 10998 to form the City of San Luis Obispo Community Facilities District 2019-1 (San Luis Ranch). As enabled by the Mello -Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, a CFD allows a local jurisdiction to levy a special tax within a specified area to pay for public services and/or infrastructure needed within that area. Over the past three decades, CFDs have become a common mechanism for cities to fund services and finance development-related infrastructure, and the use of a CFD, in this case, is consistent with the City’s Economic Development Strategic Plan and the General Plan. The General Plan provides specific policies related to the funding of infrastructure noted below: 1.13.6. Required Plans: The City shall not allow the development of any newly annexed private land until the City has adopted a specific or development plan for land uses, open space protection, roads, utilities, the overall pattern of subdivision, and financing of public facilities for the area. Page 25 of 501 Item 5c 1.13.9. Costs of Growth: The City shall require the costs of public facilities and services needed for new development be borne by the new development unless the community chooses to help pay th e costs for a certain development to obtain community-wide benefits. The City shall consider a range of options for financing measures so that new development pays its fair share of costs of new services and facilities which are required to serve the project, and which are reasonably related to the new growth attributable to the development. This report and the levying of the special tax are consistent with these General Plan policies and with the City’s local goals and policies for Community Facilities Districts. REPORT-IN-BRIEF Annual Special Tax Levy Report The CFD Annual Special Levy Tax Report (Attachment A) covers all assessor parcels of land within the boundaries of the City of San Luis Obispo Community Facilities District No. 2019 -1 (San Luis Ranch). The special tax attributed to each parcel was computed following the amended Rate and Method of Apportionment as approved by Council in Resolution No. 11233 (2021 Series). The report is divided into four chapters including an introduction, information about the taxable CFD land uses, the annual CFD cost, the assignment of the maximum special tax and special tax levy for FY 202 3-24, and the proposed special tax levy for FY 2023-24. Each fiscal year, the District Administrator will calculate the maxim um amount of special tax revenue that may be collected from all taxable parcels in the CFD. The levy for FY 2023-24 is based on the number of building permits issued as of May 1, 2023. Currently, the developer has received 416 building permits (121 for low-density, 81 for medium- density, 70 townhomes, 84 condominiums, and 60 efficiency units). The 161 final map parcels (those that do not have associated issued building permits ) will be taxed at the maximum rate. By allocating the allowable maximum of the assigned special tax for all developed parcels and final map parcels, the total special tax levy for FY 2023-24 amounts to $1,285,874.33. (See Table 6 of Attachment A) Annual obligations of the CFD for FY 2023 -24 include $929,700 for debt service, and $371,174.33 for administrative expenses (city staff, administrator fee, trustee fee, and other authorized uses). Total net annual costs for FY 2023-24 are $1,285,874.33. While not mandated under the provisions of the Rate and Method of Apportionment (RMA), the City may levy the maximum special tax for developed parcels, final map parcels and undeveloped parcels each fiscal year as needed to satisfy the annual costs of the CFD. Special tax revenues collected, that are not otherwise needed to fund the administration of the CFD, debt service, and the replenishment of the bond reserve fund, may be allocated to “pay-as-you-go” (PAYGO) efforts as outlined in the Acquisition Agreement approved by Council. Page 26 of 501 Item 5c Following the Acquisition Agreement entered into in October 2020 between the City and the San Luis Ranch’s developer, any amount not required to cover other authorized costs for the CFD must be used in half to reimburse the developer for the shortfall between the anticipated cost of the public infrastructure built and the bonds’ net proceeds, and the other half to the City to cover any applicable cost it might incur associated to the CFD. For FY 2023-24, the City will also tax the final map parcels at maximum rate. In taxing developed parcels and final map parcels for FY 2023-24 at the allowable maximum rate, there will be a total of $330,774.88 collected that is not required for other authorized costs of the CFD. This amount may be used to fund applicable PAYGO expenditures and provide reimbursement to developer. DISCUSSION Background After the approval of the San Luis Ranch Specific Plan, the City Council approved its Development Agreement (DA) on July 17, 2018. The DA provided the basis for the formation of the San Luis Ranch CFD. The CFD for San Luis Ranch was formed to fund major road improvements, potable and non-potable water system improvements, drainage system improvements, wastewater system improvements, solid waste improvements, park and paseo improvements, open space improvements, utilities, and other authorized facilities under the Mello-Roos Act, serving the Project as a condition of the City’s approval of the development. Subsequently, on February 19, 2019, the City Council, as the legislative body of the CFD, adopted a Resolution of Intention, including the Rate and Method of Apportionment (RMA) that specified the special tax to be levied by and within the district. The RMA was updated on April 20, 2021, to allow the CFD to incur bonded indebtedness in the aggregate principal amount of not to exceed $25,000,000 secured by the levy of the mentioned special tax within the CFD. As one of the steps for the approval of bond issuance, on May 5, 2021, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1697 (2021 Series) (Attachment B), approving the levy of a special tax within the CFD for the fiscal year 2021-22 and all subsequent fiscal years and is solely applicable within the boundaries of the San Luis Ranch CFD. The purpose of the levy of the special tax within the CFD is to cover authorized costs identified in the RMA such as administrative expenses, debt service, the payment of other costs associated with the bonds, etc. The City has already established the necessary accounts with the County of San Luis Obispo Tax Collector to administer the special tax within the San Luis Ranch CFD. All necessary documentation and information were provided to the County of San Luis Obispo Tax Collector in proper form and required timelines to bill and collect the special tax on the secured property tax roll of the County in FY 2023-24. Under the terms of the RMA, the City retains the right to utilize any other lawful means of billing, collecting, and enforcing the special tax, including direct billing, supplemental billing, and, when lawfully available, judicial foreclosure of the special tax lien. Page 27 of 501 Item 5c Previous Council or Advisory Body Action On April 20, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolutions No. 11233, 11238, 11239, and 11240 (2021 Series) amending the Rate and Method of Apportionment and approving the issue of bonds for the San Luis Ranch CFD. On May 5, 2021, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1697 (2021 Series) authorizing the levy of a special tax for fiscal year 2021-22 and subsequent fiscal years. Public Engagement The annual special tax report requires a "notify" level of public engagement that was accomplished through the publication of the agenda, associated report, and the public session of the City Council. Public comment can be provided to the City Council through written correspondence prior to the meeting and through public testimony at the meeting. CONCURRENCE The City’s Community Development Department concurs with the report as presented. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Annual special tax reporting for the City of San Luis Obispo Community Facilities District No. 2019-1 ( San Luis Ranch) is categorically exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines Section 15306 (Information Collection) and the action otherwise qualifies for a "general rule" exemption according to Section 15061(b)(3), which covers activities "where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment." Annual reporting does not change any aspect of the approved San Luis Ranch project, nor does it introduce the potential for any new environmental impacts. Under Section 15306, the Secretary for the California Natural Resources Agency has concluded that basic data collection, research, and resource evaluation activities which do not result in a serious or major disturbance to an environmental resource" are exempt from CEQA. FISCAL IMPACT Budgeted: Yes Budget Year: 2023-24 Funding Identified: Yes Fiscal Analysis: Funding Sources Total Budget Available Current Funding Request Remaining Balance Annual Ongoing Cost General Fund N/A N/A N/A N/A State Federal Fees Other: Total N/A N/A N/A N/A Page 28 of 501 Item 5c There are no expenditures directly associated with this item. Purpose of the annual report is to determine the annual tax for each parcel within the CFD boundary which will be used to cover annual costs associated with the CFD and are not obligations of the General Fund. ALTERNATIVES Council could decide not to receive and file the Special Tax Annual Report for San Luis Ranch. This is not recommended as the review and acceptance of the annual report is a requirement of the CFD under the Mello-Roos Act.

(EPS) 1 1. Introduction The City of San Luis Obispo (City) created a Mello-Roos Community Facilities District (CFD) for the San Luis Ranch development (Project), located in the San Luis Ranch Specific Plan (SLRSP) area, located west of US Highway 101 in the southwest quadrant of the City. The CFD was formed in March 2019 to create a land-secured funding mechanism to help fund construction of authorized facilities of the CFD. At the time of formation of the CFD, development plans for single-family residential product were fully developed, but the development plan for multifamily residential uses was still being evaluated by the developer. In addition, the location and number of affordable housing units (which are to be tax-exempt under the CFD) were being finalized between the developer and the City. A Change Proceeding for the CFD was started in the spring of 2021 to amend the Rate and Method of Apportionment to reflect changes being made to the scope of the special tax related to final taxable unit counts for multifamily residential and assignment of affordable units to large lot parcels in the Project. The boundaries of the proposed CFD are coterminous with the SLRSP. Overall, the Project area includes approximately 131.4 acres approved for up to 580 dwelling units and commercial development, including a 200-room hotel, 100,000 square feet of office space, and 150,000 square feet of retail and service commercial uses. The Project includes 7.8 acres of parks, waterways, and other interior open space. There will be 52.3 acres of farmed agricultural land in the Project area. EPS prepared the “San Luis Ranch Financing Plan” (Financing Plan) in June 2018, which addressed how the infrastructure needed to serve the Project will be funded. The Financing Plan identified total infrastructure improvement costs of $54.2 million, of which approximately $22.8 million is attributable to the Project as a “fair-share” cost allocation for required infrastructure. Purpose of the CFD The CFD was formed to fund major road improvements, potable and non-potable water system improvements, drainage system improvements, wastewater system improvements, solid waste improvements, park and paseo improvements, open space improvements, utilities, and other authorized facilities under the Mello-Roos Act, serving the Project as a condition of the City’s approval of the development. The CFD is authorized to issue up to $25 million in bonds. CFD bonds were issued in June 2021 in the amount of $19,660,000. It is anticipated that more than one CFD bond issuance will occur as the Project is built out.

(EPS) 2 The CFD was authorized to begin collecting the special tax in Fiscal Year (FY) 2018-19. FY 2021-22 was the first year in which the special tax will be levied against taxable parcels of the CFD. Map 1 shows the proposed boundaries of the CFD. Structure of this Report This report is divided into 4 chapters, including this introductory chapter, and includes Appendix A: Proposed Special Tax Levy for FY 2023-24.

(EPS) 4 2. Taxable CFD Land Uses When the CFD was formed, it was intended that only market-rate residential land uses would be subject to the special tax. The CFD is planned to allow development of 577 residential units. Included in these 577 residential units are 22 workforce/affordable units, which will remain tax-exempt if they maintain their deed-restricted affordable status. Residential uses occupy approximately 29.55 acres of the approximately 131 total acres encompassing the CFD. CFD land uses are shown in Table 1, which identifies the Lot Numbers for each land use category. The Lot Numbers correspond to those numbers shown in Map 2 and Map 3. There are 198 low-density residential (LDR) units and 83 medium-density residential (MDR) units that have been created by the recordation of final maps. Lot Numbers for these residential uses are shown in Map 2. High-density residential (HDR) units are defined as townhomes, condominiums, and efficiency units. These land use categories are assigned to Lot Numbers shown in Map 3. It is anticipated that there will be 80 townhomes, 96 condominiums, and 120 efficiency units constructed in the CFD. In addition to the taxable uses discussed above, the CFD includes approximately 18.58 acres of nonresidential uses (commercial) and 81.16 acres of public uses.

Pay-as-you-go costs are included in this category. While not required under the provisions of the RMA, the City MAY levy the maximum special tax for “developed parcels” each fiscal year. Special tax revenues collected, that are not otherwise needed to fund administration of the CFD, debt service, or to replenish the bond reserve fund, may be allocated to pay-as-you-go costs identified by the developer. The City has identified PAYGO costs in the amount of $335,246.83 for FY 2023- 24. These special tax revenues will be used to fund certain costs associated with the planned Prado Road interchange. Delinquency Coverage and Replenishment of the Bond Reserve Fund The County employs the Tetter Plan for the direct charges, guaranteeing the City that all amounts levied will be remitted to the City.

(EPS) 13 4. Assignment of the Maximum Special Tax and Special Tax Levy for FY 2023-24 Each fiscal year, the Administrator will calculate the maximum amount of special tax revenue that may be collected from all taxable parcels in the CFD. First, the Administrator will increase the maximum special tax category for each tax category by the Tax Escalation Factor of 2 percent. The annual assignment of the maximum special tax and determination of the special tax levy for FY 2023-24 are discussed below. Assignment of the Special Tax Each fiscal year, the Administrator assigns the special tax to all taxable parcels in the CFD. For LDR and MDR parcels, a minimum annual special tax and maximum annual special tax are assigned. For the 3 HDR categories, the minimum and maximum annual special taxes are the same. Tax Categories Table 4 shows the tax categories defined by the RMA, with the stated minimum and maximum annual special taxes. The first year in which the special tax was authorized was FY 2018-19 (as shown in Table 4). The minimum and maximum annual special tax is increased by the Tax Escalation Factor of 2 percent each fiscal year through FY 2023-24 for each tax category. For LDR and MDR tax categories, 2 tax categories are established. For LDR, minimum annual special tax rates are the same for homes smaller than 1,850 building square feet and for those equal to or greater than 1,850 building square feet. For MDR, minimum annual special tax rates are the same for homes smaller than 1,600 building square feet and for those equal to or greater than 1,600 building square feet. A higher maximum annual special tax rate is assigned to LDR and MDR parcels that have homes constructed that fall into the higher range of building square footages. Because the building square footage for a structure is not known until a building permit is issued, LDR and MDR parcels are taxed at the minimum annual special tax until a building permit has been issued, establishing the total building square footage for a parcel.

(EPS) 15 Because the issuance of the initial building permit establishes the maximum annual square footage for a parcel, it is not intended that future additions to a residential structure will trigger a future increase in the maximum annual special tax established with the initial building permit. HDR parcels will not see an increased maximum annual special tax because of the issuance of a building permit. Assignment of Special Tax Priorities The special tax levy is allocated to parcels based on the prioritization of land use development categories. The special tax allocation priorities are as follows: 1. Developed Parcel—a parcels with an issued building permit. 2. Final Map Parcel—a parcel created by the recordation of a final map. 3. Large Lot Parcel—a parcel shown in Map 2 or Map 3, as identified by Lot Number. 4. Undeveloped Parcel—a parcel not otherwise defined above. Table 5 shows the current development status of parcels by tax category and shows each tax category (LDR, MDR, and the 3 HDR categories), acreage, number of total units assigned to each tax category in the RMA, number of building permits issued, final maps lots, and undeveloped lots. The RMA specifies that building permits issued through May 1 of the previous fiscal year will become developed parcels for the upcoming fiscal year. There are building permits issued as of May 1, 2023, for the construction of 416 residential units. LDR has 121 building permits, and MDR has 81 building permits. Note that 5 of the building permits for MDR were issued as Workforce/Affordable Units, and 3 of the building permits for LDR were issued for Workforce/Affordable Units. Such parcels are tax-exempt. Building permits have been issued for construction of 70 Townhome units, 84 Condominium units (2 are Workforce/Affordable Units), and 60 Efficiency units (3 are Workforce/Affordable Units). In total, 416 building permits have been issued, with 403 of these parcels being taxable. There are a total of 161 final map parcels identified for FY 2023-24, with 9 of these parcels identified as Workforce/Affordable Units.

The number of units for each category comes from Table 5. By allocating 100 percent of the assigned special tax for all developed parcels, a total special tax levy of $955,099.45 would be assigned for developed parcels. Total special tax revenue available from final map parcels is $330,774.88. Total special tax revenue from large lot parcels is $0. To generate the special tax revenues needed to fund Net Annual Costs of $1,285,874.33, Developed Parcels will need to be levied at 100 percent of the maximum annual special tax (generating $955,099.45), and Final Map Parcels will need to be levied at approximately 100 percent of the maximum annual special tax (generating $330,774.88). The total recommended special tax levy for FY 2023-24 is $1,285,874.33.

Prepared By: Brent Taylor – Financial Analyst, Infrastructure Finance SUBJECT: ANNUAL SPECIAL TAX LEVY REPORT FOR THE CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 2017-1 (AVILA RANCH) FOR FISCAL YEAR 2023/ 2024. RECOMMENDATION Receive and file the Annual Special Tax Levy Report for the City of San Luis Obispo Community Facilities No. 2017-1 (Avila Ranch) for Fiscal Year 2023-24. POLICY CONTEXT On September 19, 2017, the City Council introduced Ordinance No. 1639, approving the Development Agreement between the City of San Luis Obispo and Avila Ranch, LLC , and a resolution certifying the Final Environmental Report for the Project and CEQA findings. The City Council agreed the Development Agreement was consistent with the objectives, policies, general land uses, and programs specified in the General Plan of the City of San Luis Obispo, and the Airport Area Specific Plan. The adopted Development Agreement required the establishment of a funding mechanism to cover the City’s General Fund shortfall for serving the Avila Ranch development. To be consistent with this requirement, the Avila Ranch Communities Facilities District (CFD) was formed with the adoption of Resolution No. 10844 on October 24, 2017. A CFD, as enabled by the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, allows a local jurisdiction to levy a special tax within a specified area to pay for public services and/or maintenance of infrastructure needed within that area. Over the past three decades, CFDs have become a common mechanism for cities to fund services and finance development-related infrastructure, and the use of a CFD, in this case, is consistent with the City’s General Plan. Page 71 of 501 Item 5d The General Plan provides specific policies related to the funding of infrastructure noted below: 1.13.6. Required Plans: The City shall not allow the development of any newly annexed private land until the City has adopted a specific development plan for land uses, open space protection, roads, utilities, the overall pattern of subdivision, and financing of public facilities for the area. 1.13.9. Costs of Growth: The City shall require the costs of public facilities and services needed for new development to be borne by the new development unless the community chooses to help pay the costs for a certain development to obtain community-wide benefits. The City shall consider a range of options for financing measures so that new development pays its fair share of costs of new services and facilities which are required to serve the project, and which are reasonably related to the growth attributable to the development. This report and the levying of the special tax are consistent with these General Plan policies and with the City’s Local Goals and Policies for Community Facilities Districts. REPORT-IN-BRIEF Annual Special Tax Levy Report The CFD Annual Special Tax Levy Report (Attachment A) covers all assessor parcels of land within the boundaries of the City of San Luis Obispo Community Facilities District No. 2017-1 (Avila Ranch). The special tax attributed to each parcel was computed following the Rate and Method of Apportionment as approved by Council in Resolution No. 10844 (2017 Series). The report is divided into four chapters including an introduction, information about the taxable CFD land uses, the annual CFD cost, the assignment of the applicable maximum special tax, and the special tax levy for FY 2023 -24. Each fiscal year, the District Administrator will calculate the maximum amount of special tax revenue that may be collected from all taxable parcels in the CFD. Given that the district is currently being built-out, the levy for FY 2023-24 is based on the number of building permits issued as of July 1, 2023. Currently, the developer has issued 76 building permits (13 for Single Family Residential under 1,500 sq. ft. and 63 for Single Family Residential over 1,500 sq. ft.). By allocating 100 percent of the assigned m aximum special tax for all developed parcels, the total special tax levy for the FY 2023 -24 amounts to $256,498.77 made up of $232,761.03 for services and $23,737.74 for infrastructure. Currently, no municipal services, maintenance of public infrastructure, or incidental expenses for the district have been incurred and only $15,000 in annual CFD administrative cost applies for FY 2023-24. The City will therefore deposit $241,498.77 in the City’s Avila Ranch CFD Fund for future obligations. Page 72 of 501 Item 5d DISCUSSION Background The Avila Ranch Development Agreement was approved on July 18, 2017, and provided the basis for the formation of the Avila Ranch CFD. The CFD is authorized to levy a special tax within the district to fund various municipal services and maintenance of public infrastructure within its boundaries. On September 19, 2017, the City Council, as the legislative body of the CFD, adopted a Resolution of Intention, including the Rate and Method of Apportionment (RMA) that specified the special tax to be levied by and within the district. As one of the steps, on Nov 28, 2017, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1642 (Attachment B), approving the levy of a special tax within the CFD on an annual basis and solely within the boundaries of the Avila Ranch CFD. The purpose of the levy of the special tax within the CFD is to cover authorized costs identified in the RMA such as municipal services, public infrastructure, administrative expenses, and incidental expenses. The City has already established the necessary accounts with the County of San Luis Obispo Tax Collector to administer the special tax within the Avila Ranch CFD. All necessary documentation and information were provided to the County of San Luis Obispo Tax Collector in proper form and required timelines to bill and collect the special tax on the secured property tax roll of the County beginning in FY 2022-23. This does not exclude the City’s right to utilize any other lawful means of billing, collecting, and enforcing the special tax, including direct billing, supplemental billing, and, when lawfully available, judicial foreclosure of the special tax lien. Previous Council or Advisory Body Action On September 19, 2017, Council adopted Resolution No. 10833 declaring its intention to establish the Avila Ranch CFD; on October 24, 2017, Council adopted Resolution No. 10844 establishing the Avila Ranch CFD and approving its Rate and Method of Apportionment for the special tax assessment to be levied in the district; on November 7, 2017, Resolution No. 10846 was adopted by Council certifying the results of the special election that approved the establishment of the special tax in the district; and finally, Ordinance 1642 (2017) was introduced and adopted on November 21, 2017, to approve the levying of the special tax assessment within the CFD. Public Engagement The annual special tax report requires a "notify" level of public engagement that was accomplished through the publication of the agenda, associated report, and the consideration of the report during a public session of the City Council. Public comment can be provided to the City Council through written correspondence prior to the meeting and through public testimony at the meeting. Page 73 of 501 Item 5d CONCURRENCE The Community Development Department concurs with this report. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Annual special tax reporting for the City of San Luis Obispo Community Facilities District No. 2017-1 (Avila Ranch) is categorically exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA Guidelines Section 15306 (Information Collection) and the action otherwise qualifies for a "general rule" exemption according to Section 15061(b)(3), which covers activities "where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment." Annual reporting does not change any aspect of the approved Avila Ranch project, nor does it introduce the potential for any new environmental impacts. Under Section 15306, the Secretary for the California Natural Resources Agency has concluded that " basic data collection, research, and resource evaluation activities which do not result in a serious or major disturbance to an environmental resource" are exempt from CEQA. Therefore, the proposed action is categorically exempt from further analysis under CEQA. FISCAL IMPACT Budgeted: Yes Budget Year: 2023-24 Funding Identified: Yes Fiscal Analysis: Funding Sources Total Budget Available Current Funding Request Remaining Balance Annual Ongoing Cost General Fund N/A N/A N/A N/A State Federal Fees Other: Total N/A N/A N/A N/A There are no expenditures directly associated with this item. Purpose of annual report is to calculate the tax assessment for each parcel within CFD Boundary which will be used to cover annual costs of the CFD. There are no obligations to the General Fund. ALTERNATIVES Council could decide not to receive and file the Special Tax Annual Report for Avila Ranch. This is not recommended as the Annual Tax Report is a requirement of the CFD under the Mello-Roos Act.

(EPS) 1 1. Introduction The City of San Luis Obispo (City) created a Mello-Roos Community Facilities District (CFD) for the Avila Ranch development (Project), located at the northeast corner of Buckley Road and Vachell Lane. The CFD was formed in 2017 to create a land-secured funding mechanism to help fund authorized services facilities of the CFD. The Avila Ranch Development Plan allows up to 720 dwelling units; a “Town Center” with 15,000 square feet of local-serving retail and office uses; 18 acres of pocket parks, mini-parks, and neighborhood parks; and 53 acres of open space, including riparian corridors and farmed agricultural land. EPS prepared the “Avila Ranch Financing Plan” (Financing Plan) in August 2017, which addressed how the services and infrastructure needed to serve the Project will be funded. The Financing Plan set out the costs and cost allocations to land uses that served as the basis for maximum special tax rates established in the Rate and Method of Apportionment (RMA). Purpose of the CFD The authorized services to be funded from the levy and collection of annual special taxes include those set forth below in addition to the costs associated with collecting and administering the special taxes, annually administering the CFD, and forming the CFD. These are the authorized services to be funded: 1. Maintenance and lighting of parks, parkways, streets, roads, and open space. 2. Flood and storm protection services, including, but not limited to, the operation and maintenance of storm drainage systems. 3. Police protection services, including, but not limited to, criminal justice services. However, criminal justice services shall be limited to providing services for jails, detention facilities, and juvenile halls. 4. Fire protection and suppression services, and ambulance and paramedic services. 5. Maintenance and operation of any real property or other tangible property with an estimated useful life of 5 or more years that is owned by the local agency or by another local agency pursuant to an agreement entered into under Section 53316.2. Page 77 of 501 Tax Report: Avila Ranch CFD No. 2017-1 (Services)—FY 2023-24 June 30, 2023 Economic & Planning Systems, Inc. (EPS) 2 The authorized facilities to be funded from the levy and collection of annual special taxes include those set forth below. These are the authorized services to be funded: 1. Local park, recreation, parkway, and open space facilities. 2. The district may also finance the construction or undergrounding of water transmission and distribution facilities, natural gas pipeline facilities, telephone lines, facilities for the transmission or distribution of electrical energy, and cable television lines to provide access to those services to customers who do not have access to those services or to mitigate existing visual blight. 3. The district may also finance the acquisition, improvement, rehabilitation, or maintenance of any real or other tangible property, whether privately or publicly owned, for flood and storm protection services, including, but not limited to, storm drainage and treatment systems and sandstorm protection systems. 4. A community facilities district may also finance the purchase, construction, expansion, improvement, or rehabilitation of any real or other tangible property with an estimated useful life of 5 years or longer or may finance planning and design work that is directly related to the purchase, construction, expansion, or rehabilitation of any real or tangible property. The facilities need not be physically located in the district. The CFD was authorized to begin collecting the special tax in Fiscal Year (FY) 2018-19. FY 2022-23 will be the first year in which the special tax will be levied against taxable parcels of the CFD. Structure of this Report This report is divided into 4 chapters, including this introductory chapter, and includes Appendix A: Proposed Special Tax Levy for FY 2023-24.

Assignment of the Maximum Special Tax and Special Tax Levy for FY 2023-24 Each fiscal year, the Administrator will apply the Services Special Tax Escalation Factor to the Services Special Tax to calculate the maximum amount of special tax revenue that may be collected from all taxable parcels in the CFD. First, the Administrator will increase the Services Special Tax by the Services Special Tax Escalation Factor for each tax category and will increase the Infrastructure Special Tax by the Infrastructure Special Tax Escalation Factor. The annual assignment of the maximum special tax and determination of the special tax levy for FY 2023-24 are discussed below. Annual Special Tax Escalation Process Services Special Tax Escalation Factor The Services Special Tax is escalated by the annual percentage increase in the Services Special Tax based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) (prior calendar year annual average, San Francisco, All Urban Consumers [CPI-U] Index), the CPI (prior calendar year annual average, Pacific West Cities, All Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers), or the Municipal Cost Index annual average, whichever is greater, but not exceeding 4 percent. Table 3 shows the Services Special Tax by tax category for FY 2022-23, the escalation factor used for FY 2023-24, and the new Services Special Tax by tax category. Note that the tax escalator was 104 percent for FY 2023-24. Table 4 shows the results of the 3 indices. All three indices increased by an amount greater than 4 percent. The “not-to-exceed” escalation factor of 4 percent was used as a result. Infrastructure Special Tax Escalation Factor The Infrastructure Special Tax Escalator is set at 2 percent annually. Table 3 shows the Infrastructure Special Tax for FY 2022-23 and the 102 percent special tax as increased for FY 2023-24.

(EPS) 11 Assignment of the Special Tax Each fiscal year, the Administrator assigns the special tax to all taxable parcels in the CFD. Special tax categories include single-family, multifamily, and affordable housing uses. Tax Categories As building permits for residential uses are issued for parcels in the CFD, the special tax for services and infrastructure are assigned based on land use density (single-family versus multifamily use) and by building square footage of the residential units. Multifamily units will be further identified as market-rate or affordable housing. Table 5 shows the Services Special Tax and Infrastructure Special Tax rates by tax category for FY 2023-24. These rates come from Table 3. Note that the special tax rates shown are not rounded. Assignment of Special Tax Priorities The special tax levy is allocated only to developed parcels, which are parcels with an issued building permit for residential uses. Final map parcels or undeveloped parcels, as defined in the RMA, as not taxable under the CFD. Table 5 shows the current development status of parcels by tax category and shows each tax category (single-family, multifamily, and multifamily affordable) and developed parcels assigned to each tax category in the RMA. There are a total of 76 building permits issued as of July 1, 2023. All building permits were issued for single-family uses. There were 63 building permits issued for homes greater than or equal to 1,500 building square feet, and 13 building permits for homes fewer than 1,500 building square feet. Allocation of the Special Tax for FY 2023-24 Table 5 shows the FY 2023-24 minimum and maximum annual special taxes and the proposed allocation of the special tax. By allocating 100 percent of the assigned special tax for all developed parcels, the results are total special tax levies of $232,761 for Annual Services Costs and $23,738 for Infrastructure Costs.

Adopt a Draft Resolution entitled, “Resolution of City Council of the City of San Luis Obispo, California, authorizing use of the Water Fund Unreserved Working Capital Fund to support the Johnson Waterline Replacement – Iris to Bishop, Specification Number 2000578” REPORT-IN-BRIEF City staff recommends the advertisement of the Johnson Waterline Replacement project to replace the critical 16-inch water transmission main serving local healthcare facilities, residents, and businesses along Johnson Avenue. The new pipeline will provide resiliency to the distribution network and will safeguard against variations in pressure that often damage older pipelines. The project will involve the abandonment and removal of existing waterline infrastructure, and removal and replacement of existing infrastructure within existing streets including Johnson Avenue (between Iris and Bishop Streets), Ella Street (between Johnson Avenue and Binns Court), and Bishop Street (between Johnson Avenue and Augusta Court). The project also involves the replacement of existing storm drains along Johnson Avenue at the intersection s of Ella and Bishop Street. Page 103 of 501 Item 5e As discussed in this report, the total project budget for the Johnson Waterline Replacement Project is $3,480,000 as identified in the City’s Financial Plans. Based on the current engineer’s estimate, the estimated total cost of construction, including contingency and construction support services, is $5,010,000 while the project has a current balance of $3,300,000. In order to fully support the construction of the project, an additional $1,710,000 is needed and staff recommends closing the funding gap through three separate actions. POLICY CONTEXT On May 17, 2022, Council approved a Purchasing Policy Update to the Financial Management Manual that required Council approval for Public Projects that cost over $200,000. The Project is consistent with the City adopted General Plan because the replacement of a critical water transmission main serving local healthcare facilities and residents would ensure continued provision of water services to the community. The new pipeline will meet American Water Works Association standards and provide resiliency in the water distribution networks against unexpected failure. DISCUSSION Background The objective of the Johnson Waterline Replacement – Iris to Bishop (Project) is to replace a critical 16-inch water transmission main serving local healthcare facilities, residents, and businesses along Johnson Avenue. The City’s water distribution system has over 180 miles of water mains, 16,500 service lines, and other various assets that are designed to provide continuous drinking water and fire suppression to the commun ity. Many of the pipes were initially installed in the 1950s-1970s and have a life expectancy of 50 years. The City selects certain waterlines each year for replacement that have become vulnerable to failure or do not meet modern fire flow requirements. Th e water transmission main along Johnson Avenue from Iris to Bishop Street was originally recommended for replacement in 2015 but this recommendation was not implemented due to results from the Potable Water Distribution System Operations Plan, which indicated that the capacity of the Johnson waterline could be carried by other mains, and therefore the section of the Johnson line from Iris to Bishop was not needed. Through further modeling it was later determined that this section of pipeline provided necessary resiliency and would need to be replaced in order to maintain this resiliency against unexpected failure as described in more detail below. These modeling efforts also identified additional sections of pipeline on Ella Street and Bishop Street that could cost- effectively be replaced with this project to ensure resiliency to adjacent neighborhoods. These additions have been added to the scope of this project and have resulted in increases to the estimated cost of this project. This Project was identified as a high priority project in the Capital Improvement Plan because the existing cast iron waterline has been subject to repeated failure, including a failure in 2021 that resulted in over 200 customers being delivered a boil water advisory notice due to a loss in water pressure resulting from a catastrophic mainline failure. The new pipeline will provide resiliency to the distribution network and will safeguard against Page 104 of 501 Item 5e variations in pressure that often damage older pipelines. The Project also includes the replacement of existing storm drains on Johnson Avenue at its intersections with Ella and Bishop Street. The City contracted MNS Engineers in December 2022 to prepare construction plans (Attachment A) and Special Provisions (Attachment B), and address design changes since the original project was suspended in 2015. Design changes are largely focused on ensuring that old sections of cast iron pipeline along Ella Street and Bishop Street are also removed, which will reduce the likelihood of failure in these areas. Other changes include removal of a section of aging cast iron pipe from Johnson Avenue to the Bishop Pump station. This pump station provides water to the Bishop Tank, which supplies water to neighborhoods adjacent to Johnson Avenue. The timing fo r delivery of this pipeline is critical as these sections of pipeline need to be removed prior to the replacement of the Reservoir 2 cover, which is scheduled for the Spring of 2024. Previous Council or Advisory Body Action In June 2022, City Council adopted the 2022-23 Budget Supplement that allocated $180,000 in design funds for this project. On June 6, 2023 Council adopted its 2023-25 Financial Plan, which included the Project with an estimated cost of $3.3 million . Public Engagement This capital project was included in the 2023-25 Financial Plan which had extensive community outreach and afforded opportunities for the public to review and comment on all capital projects. CONCURRENCE There is concurrence from the Public Works Department and Utilities Department on the need for this project and the scope of the project. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Project qualifies for an Exemption to the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Sections 15302 (Replacement or Reconstruction) and 15303 (New Construction of Small Structures) because the Project would replace an existing water main, and consists of the construction and installation of approximately 4,000 linear feet of new waterline and associated facilities, abandonment and removal of existing waterline infrastructure, and removal and replacement of existing infrastructure within existing streets including Johnson Avenue (between Iris and Bishop Street), Ella Street (between Johnson Avenue and Binns Court), and Bishop Street (between Johnson Avenue and Augusta Court). The Project also includes replacement of existing storm drains at the intersection of Johnson and Ella, and Johnson and Bishop. The project will provide additional resiliency and will maintain the same purpose and capacity of the existing infrastructure.

The Project was identified in the 2022-23 Supplemental Budget (page 98) where it was allocated $180,000 for design services that has been expended. There was an additional allocation of $3,300,000 for construction services in the 2023-25 Financial Plan that was appropriated at the start of the 2023-2024 Fiscal Year on July 1, 2023. There is a current balance of $3,300,000 in the project account (2000578) for construction. Page 106 of 501 Item 5e As summarized above, the scope of the project has been modified to include additional elements that will further reduce the likelihood of failure. While these additional elements increase the cost of the project (compared to the budget identified in the Financial Plan), the City will ultimately benefit from fiscal savings in the areas of mobilization and materials costs compared to implementing these improvements under a sepa rate project in the future. In addition, the cost of supplies and materials has escalated due to inflation, which is reflected in the current cost estimate. Staff has identified a 20% contingency to cover potential cost increases that may occur during construction of the project. As shown in the table on the following page, the estimated cost of construction is $5,010,000; therefore, an additional $1,710,000 is needed to fully fund construction of the project. Staff recommends closing the funding gap through three separate actions: 1. Transfer $165,000 from the Storm Drain Annual Asset Maintenance Account (2090742) to the project account (2000578) for the storm drain replacement component of the project; and 2.

The storm drain account has a balance of $940,894 with concurrent request being made for 3 separate City projects to fund construction cost. There will an available balance of Page 107 of 501 Item 5e $350,894 that this project will be pulling from. The account will have a remaining unallocated balance of $185,894 to be used in the future to support the completion of various City projects. Deferral and Reallocation of the Recycled Water Project Staff is recommending a transfer of $1,061,031 from the Recycled Water Broad Street – Tank Farm to Aerovista project, Specification No. 2000528. The total allocated project budget is $1,085,000. As part of the 2021-23 Financial Plan, $45,000 was allocated for design services in 2021-22 and $1,040,000 was allocated for construction in 2022 -23. Approximately $24,000 was expended for site survey work. Staff recommends that this project be deferred based on the Johnson Waterline Project having a higher priority and community benefit than this project. The completion of the Johnson Waterline Project is necessary to ensure the stability of the water distribution system, protect the system from potential contamination resulting from repeated mainline failures, and protect the community from potential service disruptions and boil water notices. The impacts of mainline failures on the Johnson Avenue line are also expensive to repair and deplete funding that would otherwise go toward high-value water fund projects. While implementation of the Broad Street recycled water project is important for expanding the City’s recycled water use and allowing potable supplies to be used for potable needs as opposed to irrigation, the delivery timeline of the recycled water project can be flexible with minimal impact to overall water availability. Unreserved Capital and Reduction of Water Storage Tank Maintenance Budget Staff is recommending a transfer of $483,969 from the Water Fund’s Unreserved Working Capital account. Staff recommends reducing the 2024-25 allocation to the Water Storage Tank Maintenance budget to offset this unanticipated draw against unreserved working capital. In 2024-25, the Water Storage Tank Maintenance budget was projected to be $1,000,000. Reducing the 2024-25 Water Storage Tank Maintenance budget as recommended would result in a 2024-25 allocation of $516,031. This funding allocation was planned to be used for internal and external coating of the Edna Saddle Water Tank. If funding is reduced, staff plan to complete external coating repairs with the remaining funding, and defer internal coating repairs until the 2025-27 Financial Plan. Staff do not believe that deferral of this project will result in substantial further deterioration of the tank’s interior coating, and external recoating can take place with the tank left in service, allowing for this work to be done alongside other critical water system work. Importance of Maintaining Unreserved Working Capital Funds Staff is not recommending drawing from Water Fund Unreserved Working Capital to cover the total amount of the $1,710,000 funding gap estimated to deliver the Project. Rather, staff is recommending deferral of two projects that have flexible delivery timelines that will not impact health and safety or regulatory compliance. Maintaining a healthy unreserved working capital balance in the Water Fund provides the necessary flexibility for capital project reprioritizations that are driven by regulatory changes or to resolve unanticipated equipment failures. This funding also helps the Water Fund to absorb unanticipated capital project price increases and inflationary increases Page 108 of 501 Item 5e that have been prevalent in recent years. Without this funding, the Water Fund may also be subject to higher year-to-year rate increases than traditionally experienced. In addition, maintaining a healthy reserve facilitates a favorable standing with creditors, which qualifies the City for more favorable financing options for capital projects, provides a cashflow buffer when making payments on financed projects, and allows the City to leverage dollars and enable pursuit of grant funding. ALTERNATIVES 1. Deny the approval to advertise the project. City Council could choose to deny the authorization to advertise this project. Staff does not recommend this alternative as the existing pipeline has experienced multiple catastrophic failures, with the most recent failure resulting in a boil water notice being issued to over 200 customers in this neighborhood, including local medical facilities. 2. Deny the use of additional funds for construction. City Council could choose to deny the use of additional funding to support the construction cost. City staff does not recommend this option as the cost estimate is higher than the current available balance and all elements of this project must be completed to reduce the vulnerability of this section of aging pipeline that acts as a critical eleme nt of the City’s water distribution system. 3. Direct staff to use unreserved working capital to cover the identified funding gap ($1,710,000) and maintain the existing Capital Improvement Plan budget including delivery of the Recycled Water Broad Street – Tanks Farm to Aerovista Project and Edna Saddle Water Tanks (internal coating). Staff does not recommend drawing from Water Fund Unreserved Working Capital to cover the total amount of the $1,7010,000 funding gap because it would reduce the availability of reserves that currently provide the necessary resiliency and flexibility for capital project prioritization adjustments. Reduction of the reserve by an additional $1,710,000 may reduce the City’s ability to handle unanticipated capital and expenditures and regulatory, health, and safety requirements, and deliver high priority capital projects in the face of inflated costs. Further reduction of the reserve may affect the City’s favorable standing with creditors, would reduce the City’s cashflow buffer, and may affect the City’s good standing when pursuing grant funding.

Christine Dietrick City Attorney IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and affixed the official seal of the City of San Luis Obispo, California, on ______________________. ___________________________ Teresa Purrington City Clerk Page 180 of 501 Item 5f Department: Community Development Cost Center: 4006 For Agenda of: 8/15/2023 Placement: Consent Estimated Time: NA FROM: Timmi Tway, Community Development Director Prepared By: Michael Loew, Deputy Director/Chief Building Official SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO AMEND THE “BUY LOCAL BONUS” PROGRAM TO INCLUDE INCENTIVES FOR PARTICIPATING IN CUSTOMER SATISFACTION SURVEY RECOMMENDATION Authorize the City Manager to amend the “Buy Local Bonus” Memorandum of Understanding with the San Luis Obispo Chamber of Commerce to inclu de the purchase of gift cards as an incentive for participating in the Community Development Department customer satisfaction survey in an amount not to exceed $600. POLICY CONTEXT The 2023-2025 financial plan identifies “excellent customer service” as a strategic goal for the Community Development Department (CDD). One of the key performance indicators to measure staff’s success in this area is to verify customer satisfaction through survey data. Staff uses the survey data to adjust business processes, and greater participation in the survey is necessary to ensure that staff is making business process improvements based on experiences shared by all customers. Furthermore, the survey now includes optional demographic questions so that staff can analyze the data to also ensure that all customers receive the same level of service. Therefore, more participation would benefit operations, and thus the public, by informing staff of actual customer service needs in areas that are accurately identified as unsatisfactory by survey participants. Section 805 of the City Charter permits the use of public funds in the form of grants when it serves as a public benefit. Greater participation in the survey would ultimately be to the benefit of the public for the reasons stated above; additionally, staff is recommending using this incentivization for survey participation as another opportunity to contribute to local economic recovery efforts that are necessary as a result of the unprecedented impacts of Covid-19. Therefore, staff recommends amending the MOU with the Chamber to use the Buy Local Bonus program as a vehicle to deliver the incentive to the public to contribute to the same economic recovery initiative. DISCUSSION Page 181 of 501 Item 5f Background Community Development staff is working with Information Technology (IT) staff to implement more transparent business processes. The Community Development Department (CDD) has several Key Performance Indicators (KPI) to measure CDD staff’s success in providing excellent customer service. One KPI is to provide satisfactory customer service, which is measured by a voluntary survey that is sent to customers during the building and planning application process and after inspections. Incentive Program During the 2021-2023 Financial Plan period, the Community Development Department issued 5,629 unique permits and reviewed 675 unique planning applications. Customer satisfaction surveys were sent to applicants for each of these applications through an automatic email. During that same time, staff received only 79 survey responses, equating to a 1.25% response rate. In order to encourage greater participation, staff is proposing to create an incentive program that will allow survey participants to voluntarily enter a drawing managed by the Chamber of Commerce for a 50-dollar gift card to a local business. Survey respondents who wish to enter the drawing will provide their email at the time of survey submission. Each month, for a total of 12 months, CDD staff will be notified of a random winner selected by an automated database process configured by IT staff. The winner will have the opportunity to claim one gift card through the Chamber. Survey respondents who were not selected will remain in the pool to be considered in the proceeding months. While individuals may submit multiple surveys if they have multiple applications into the department, they will not be eligible to win multiple times throughout the duration of the Incentive Program. Previous Council or Advisory Body Action On July 7, 2020, City Council authorized the City Manager to enter into various contracts and program expenditures for Community Promotions based on the recommendations of the Promotional Coordinating Committee. This authorization resulted in a Memorandum of Understanding with the SLO Chamber of Commerce. On December 14, 2020, the City Manager executed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Chamber to create the “Shop Local Incentive” Program. On November 15, 2022, the City Manager execute d a new Memorandum of Understanding with Chamber to create the Buy Local Bonus Program (Attachment B) Public Engagement No public engagement has been done for this item; however, the public will have an opportunity to comment on this at the meeting. Furthermore, any individual who submits an application to the Community Development Department receives an email requesting their participation in the customer satisfaction survey. Page 182 of 501 Item 5f CONCURRENCE The Economic Development team supports this approach and MOU amendment. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The California Environmental Quality Act does not apply to the recommended action in this report, because the action does not constitute a “Project” under CEQA Guidelines Sec. 15378. FISCAL IMPACT Budgeted: No Budget Year: 2023-2024 Funding Identified: Yes Fiscal Analysis: Funding Sources Total Budget Available Current Funding Request Remaining Balance Annual Ongoing Cost General Fund $ $600 $ $ State Federal Fees Other: Total $NA $600 $NA $NA Staff is proposing that this one-time expenditure be funded through discretionary spending accounts within the current fiscal year’s operating budget. ALTERNATIVES Council could decide not to approve the amendment to the current MOU and not authorize staff to incentivize survey participation. This action is not recommended by staff because greater survey participation will yield more accurate data that informs staff on how to better serve the community and customers of the Community Development Department.

DISCUSSION Background Tract 3044, located at 3725 Orcutt Road as shown on the attached Vicinity Map (Attachment A, Vicinity Map), includes a total of 48 lots consisting of 47 single-family lots, and one lot for future additional single-family and multi-family residential purposes (Parcel maps PM SLO 17-0115 and PM SLO 19-0081). Acceptance of Off-Site Improvements Work has been completed for the Off -Site public improvements for Tract 3044. In general, the off-site improvements on Orcutt Road consist of street construction, street widening, medians, curb, gutter, sidewalks, streetlights, water main and sewer main extensions, fire hydrants, storm drain improvements, and landscaping, depicted on Figure 1. Page 193 of 501 Item 5g Figure 1 - Off-Site Public Improvements Acceptance of In-Tract Improvements Work has been completed for the public improvements within the Tract 3044 boundary. In general, the in-tract improvements consist of street construction, street widening, medians, curb, gutter, sidewalks, streetlights, water main and sewer main extensions, fire hydrants, storm drain improvements, and landscaping, depicted on Figure 2. Figure 2 - In-Tract Public Improvements Page 194 of 501 Item 5g Previous Council Action The tentative subdivision map for Tract 3044 was approved by City Council on October 1st, 2013, by Resolution No. 10462 (2013 Series). The final map for Tract 3044 was approved by City Council on January 15, 2019, by Resolution No. 10973 (2019 Series). Public Engagement Public engagement was completed with the approval of the Tentative Map and the development of the Orcutt Area Specific Plan. CONCURRENCE The Public Works Director and Utilities Director concur with the recommended action. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The Orcutt Area Specific Plan (OASP) and its Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) were approved and certified in March 2010. Consistent with Public Resources Code Section 21080.7, Council determined on October 1, 2013, that no additional environmental review was required since the tentative map is in an urbanized area, the project involves the construction of housing that is consistent with a specific plan that has a certified EIR that was adopted not more than five years prior, and the initial study (IS) prepared for the project identified no new impacts (City Council Resolution 10462 (2013 Series). Both the 2010 FEIR and subsequent IS constitute the complete environmental determination for the project. The final map is substantially in compliance with the tentative map evaluated with this prior environmental determinat ion. FISCAL IMPACT Budgeted: No Budget Year: N/A Funding Identified: No Fiscal Analysis: Funding Sources Total Budget Available Current Funding Request Remaining Balance Annual Ongoing Cost General Fund $ $ $ $ State Federal Fees Other: Total $ $ $ $ Page 195 of 501 Item 5g Typical maintenance and operation of newly accepted public facilities will be required for the street and utility improvements. Increasing the maintenance budget for the small, incremental increase in infrastructure to be maintained does not occur with each acceptance of public facilities. The maintenance budget for these improvements is evaluated and adjusted as needed with the City’s adoption of its two -year budget. However, the Council action of accepting these improvements itself does not have an associated budget increase. ALTERNATIVES Council could decide to continue consideration of the request. Ultimately, however, acceptance of the public improvements is required in accordance with the OASP, Tentative and Final Map approvals, Department of Real Estate process assumptions, and Homeowners Association CC&R’s. Limited alternatives exist and only regarding the timing of acceptance of these improvements.

Stewart ATTEST: ______________________ Teresa Purrington, City Clerk APPROVED AS TO FORM: ______________________ J. Christine Dietrick, City Attorney IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and affixed the official seal of the City of San Luis Obispo, California, on ______________________. ___________________________ Teresa Purrington, City Clerk Page 206 of 501 Item 5h Department: Fire Cost Center: 8502 For Agenda of: 8/15/2023 Placement: Consent Estimated Time: N/A FROM: Todd Tuggle, Fire Chief Prepared By: Nicole Vert, Administrative Analyst SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO APPLY FOR FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY (FEMA) ASSISTANCE TO FIREFIGHTERS GRANT (AFG) RECOMMENDATION 1. Authorize the Fire Department to submit a grant application to the Federal Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) Program in the amount of $98,845.45 to send two EMT firefighters through certified paramedic training; and 2. Authorize the City Manager, or their designee, to execute the grant documents and approve the budget changes necessary to appropriate the grant amount upon notification that the grant has been awarded. POLICY CONTEXT The recommended actions are consistent with the City of San Luis Obispo’s Financial Management Manual, Section 740 – Grant Management Policy. The policy states that Council will approve all grant applications in excess of $5,000 and delegates receipt and contract execution to the City Manager. DISCUSSION State, federal, and non-profit grants are occasionally offered to assist local governments with the financial impacts associated with daily operations and /or mandated programs. The Fire Department actively seeks out these opportunities to enhance the effectiveness of the Department while contributing to the fiscal sustainability of the City. A recent grant opportunity was identified, which is in line with these goals and addresses a current need for the City: the Federal Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 AFG Program. The (FY) 2022 grant applications open 2023. Background The Federal FY 2022 AFG Program is one of three grant programs that constitute the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) focuses on enhancing the safety of the public and firefighters with respect to fire and fire-related hazards. The AFG Program accomplishes this goal by Page 207 of 501 Item 5h providing direct financial assistance to eligible fire departments for critical training and equipment. The AFG Program represents one part of a comprehensive set of measures authorized by Congress and implemented by DHS. Among the five basic homeland security missions noted in the DHS Quadrennial Homeland Security Review, the AFG Program supports the goal to Strengthen National Preparedness and Resilience. For federal FY 2022, Congress appropriated $360,000,000 in funding for AFG and is projecting to award grants to 2,500 applicants. The objectives of the AFG program are to provide critically needed resources that equip and train emergency personnel to recognized standards, enhance operational efficiencies, foster interoperability, and support community resilience. In calendar year 2022, the Fire Department responded to more than 7,100 calls, 65% of which were medical-related. Advanced Life Support (ALS) is the highest level of pre - hospital emergency medical services that the Department is authorized to provide and is utilized during the majority of EMS incidents. The Department is currently understaffed with paramedics and does not have the funding for tuition, overtime, and travel costs needed to train EMT Firefighters to the level of Paramedic. If awarded, the AFG will allow the Department to train two EMT Firefighters as Paramedics at the City’s local community college. Of the 47 allocated firefighter positions, the Department has 24 allocated Paramedic positions. Currently, the city staffs 47 firefighters, 22 of which are Paramedics. Of those 22, two are on long term injury related leave leaving only 20 avail able for field assignment. An increase in paramedics will not only help maintain the level of available pre-hospital care but will also assist with the strain put on current paramedic staff and can improve the level of care available to staff members suffering from medical emergencies while on duty. Previous Council or Advisory Body Action On August 18, 2020, the City Council authorized the fire department to apply for an AFG Program to send two firefighters to paramedic school and authorized the City Manager, or designee, to execute the grant documents and approve the budget changes necessary upon notification that the grant had been awarded. On March 15, 2022, the City Council authorized the fire department to apply for an AFG Program to purchase Urban Search & Rescue equipment and authorized the City Manager, or designee, to execute the grant documents and approve the budget changes necessary upon notification that the grant had been awarded. Public Engagement This item is on the agenda for the August 15, 2023, City Council meeting and will follow all required postings and notifications. The public will have an opportunity to comment on this item at or before the meeting. Page 208 of 501 Item 5h ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The California Environmental Quality Act does not apply to the recommended action in this report, because the action does not constitute a “Project” under CEQA Guidelines. Sec. 15378. If the work associated with the grant funding requires environmental review, staff will not proceed with the project until a review has been completed. FISCAL IMPACT Budgeted: No Budget Year: 2023-24 Funding Identified: Yes Fiscal Analysis: Funding Sources Total Budget Available Current Funding Request Remaining Balance Annual Ongoing Cost General Fund $ $9,884.55 $ $ State Federal $98,845.45 $98,845.45 Fees Other: Total $98,845.45 $108,730.00 $ $ If the Fire Department were to receive funding from the AFG Program, the City would have to match the Federal grant funds equal to 10% of the total project cost. The total grant request is $108,730.00 and if fully funded would require a match from the city of $9,884.55. The Fire Department can absorb this match re quirement within the existing appropriated operating budget for FY 2023-24. The Fire Department anticipates the cost of sending two firefighters to paramedic school to be $108,730. Education costs will total $14,331.90, that includes books, tuition and other expenses. The remainder of the funds will be to cover backfill and overtime while the firefighters are in class. The two firefighters who receive the training will be eligible for paramedic incentive pay once certified. The Department has already rec eived authorization to fund a total of 24 paramedic positions, two of which are currently on long term work-related injury leaves. The Department anticipates the leaves will lead to retirement creating available funds for the incentive pay for the new paramedics once they are eligible. ALTERNATIVES The Council could decide not to pursue the grant monies . This is not recommended as fire service grant opportunities are limited and the grant funds would only serve to enhance the City’s safety and resilience while increasing fiscal sustainability for the City. Page 209 of 501 Page 210 of 501 Item 5i Department: Fire Cost Center: 402-5008 For Agenda of: 8/15/2023 Placement: Consent Estimated Time: N/A FROM: Todd Tuggle, Fire Chief Prepared By: Nicole Vert, Administrative Analyst SUBJECT: APPROVE THE SOLE SOURCE PURCHASE OF FIRE ENGINE 4 RECOMMENDATION Approve the sole source purchase of a 2022 Pierce Arrow Type 1 Pumping Fire Engine in the amount of $881,584.76. POLICY CONTEXT 1. The recommended actions are consistent with the City of San Luis Obispo’s Municipal Code, Section 3.24.060 - Sole Source purchasing. The Municipal Code states that regular bid procedures can be waived when the item(s) to be purchased can be obtained from only one vendor or supplier, and when supplies or equipment have been uniformly adopted in the city or otherwise when standardized. (SLMC § 3.24.060(C)(D)). 2. This action is considered a purchase of goods and in compliance with the City of San Luis Obispo’s Municipal Code 3.24.080, which requires Council approval for any purchase in excess of $200,000. DISCUSSION Emergency vehicles are a vital part of the service delivery for the City of San Luis Obispo Fire Department. A fire engine pumper (“fire engine”) has a standard lifespan of 10,000 hours and is staffed with emergency response personnel, tools, and equipment to provide all-hazards emergency services, Through the utilization of an internal apparatus committee, staff developed fire engine specifications that were used to build the pricing for the replacement of Engine 4, a 2014 Pierce Arrow XT Type 1 Pumper. The specifications considered the community’s unique features and sought the best overall fire engine to complement the existing apparatus fleet. The specifications also align with the most recently purchased fire engine, Engine 3, with minor modifications based on experience. The new fire engine provides the same capabilities as the previous engine but with improved safety, efficiency, and reliability resulting in less cost and time associated with repair and maintenance. Page 211 of 501 Item 5i Background Accelerated Replacement As part of the FY 2021-22 Fourth-Quarter Financial Report (Year-End) to Council, staff recommended the acceleration of Engine 4 replacement to ensure a sustainable reserve engine fleet. The replacement was scheduled for FY 2024 -25; however, the current reserve engine has been encountering a higher than an expected number of mechanical issues that jeopardize the availability of a reliable reserve apparatus over the next several years. Additionally, the City is not immune to the supply shortages brought on by the COVID 19 pandemic. Many fleet replacements have been delayed and commitment letters are being issued to ensure delivery from vendors as far out as 18 months in the future. This engine is immediately available through Pierce, which is the City’s standard for fire engines. Council approved this recommendation and funded the replacement. In order to avoid a nearly $60,000 increase, the City authorized a purchase order for the replacement engine in October and Council approval is necessary to finalize the purchase. Sole Source Purchase Recommended Staff recommends a sole source purchase award to South Coast Fire Equipment in the amount of $881,584.76 for the purchase of a 2022 Pierce Arrow Type 1 Pumping Fire Engine. City purchasing regulations allow for sole source purchases when supplies or equipment in use have been uniformly adopted by the City or otherwise standardized. The Pierce fire engine has been the standard apparatus for the City of San Luis Obispo for the last quarter century. South Coast Fire Equipment, the sole provider of Pierce engines in this region (Attachment B), provided the purchasing quote (Attachment C) for the pumper. The quote was good through October 31, 2022, if allowed to expire, without issuing a purchase order the cost would increase by at least 7% or nearly $60,000. The Fire Department has made significant parts, equ ipment, and training investment in maintaining Pierce-manufactured apparatus. Fire fleet already has an inventory of spare parts, filters, and maintenance items specific to the Pierce fire apparatus platform. Additionally, the Fire Department’s Fire Vehicle Mechanic is specially trained to provide maintenance to Pierce manufactured fire apparatus. Previous Council or Advisory Body Action On October 4, 2022, the City Council approved Resolution No. 11367 (2022 Series) authorizing unassigned Local Revenue Measure Fund Balance be allocated to the accelerated replacement of Fire Pumper (Engine 4). On August 21, 2018, the City Council authorized the sole source purchase of a 2018 Pierce Arrow PUC Type 1 Fire Engine. Page 212 of 501 Item 5i Public Engagement This item is a consent item for the August 15, 2023, City Council meeting and will follow all required postings and notifications. The public will have an opportunity to comment on this item at or before the meeting. CONCURRENCE The Finance Department concurs with the Fire Department’s request to sole source the new engine using the current quote from South Coast Fire Equipment. Additionally, after consultation with the previous Finance Director and the fact that the price will increase exponentially, staff was advised that a City Manager Report should be routed to execute a purchase order for the fire engine replacement. This was due to the October 4, 2022 appropriation of needed funding by Council, and the significant cost increases that would be incurred by delaying the issuance of a purchase order. Staff included the details of the purchase commitment in the 1st quarter report that was presented to Council on November 15, 2022. Staff was advised to return to Council with a consent item to affirm this purchase at the next available meeting after the City Manager’s Report approved the purchase (Attachment A). ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The California Environmental Quality Act does not apply to the recommended action in this report, because the action does not constitute a “Project” under CEQA Guidelines Sec. 15378. FISCAL IMPACT Budgeted: Yes Budget Year: 2022-23 Funding Identified: Yes Fiscal Analysis: Funding Sources Total Budget Available Current Funding Request Remaining Balance Annual Ongoing Cost General Fund $900,000 $881,584.76 $18,415.24 $ State Federal Fees Other: Total $900,000 $881,584.76 $18,415.24 $ Page 213 of 501 Item 5i Council approved advancing the funding for the new engine on October 4, 2022 with Resolution No. 11367 (2022 Series) appropriating unassigned Local Revenue Measure Fund Balance to the accelerated purchase of the new engine. With the appropriated $900,000, the purchase of the engine is fully funded and will not need any financing. The remaining $18,415.24 budget for the a pparatus replacement is needed to fully outfit the vehicle with the necessary communications and agency-specific equipment. Pierce Manufacturing pricing and the corresponding quote from South Coast expired on October 31, 2022 due to the manufacturer's annual price adjustments. Had we allowed quote to expire without committing to a purchase the engine would have increased the cost of the engine by a minimum of $60,000, due to a scheduled 7% cost increase. Anecdotally, SLOFD has confirmed with surrounding agencies that the pricing for similar apparatus now exceeds $1 million. ALTERNATIVES Deny the sole source purchase. This action is not recommended by staff as the funds are approved as part of the budget amendment. Pierce engines, the City’s standard fire engine, is only available through South Coast Fire Equipment that covers the west coast territory.

Background Accelerated Replacement As part of the FY 2021-22 Fourth-Quarter Financial Report (Year-End) F to Council, staff recommended the acceleration of Engine 4 replacement to ensure a sustainable reserve engine fleet. The replacement was currently scheduled for FY 2024-25; however, the aged reserve engine Page 215 of 501 Authorization to sole source purchase Pierce Arrow Fire Engine Page 2 has been encountering more than an expected number of mechanical issues which jeopardizes the availability of a reliable reserve apparatus over the next several years. Additionally, the City is not immune to the supply shortages brought on by the COVID 19 pandemic. Many fleet replacements have been delayed and commitment letters issued to secure delivery up to 18 months in the future. This engine is immediately available through Pierce which is the City’s standard for fire engines. Council approved this recommendation and funded the replacement. Sole Source Purchase Recommended Staff recommends a sole source purchase award to South Coast Fire Equipment in the amount of $881,584.76 for the purchase of a 2022 Pierce Arrow Type 1 Pumping Fire Engine. City purchasing guidelines allow for sole source when supplies or equipment in use have been uniformly adopted by the City or otherwise standardized. The Pierce fire engine has been the standard apparatus for the City of San Luis Obispo for the last quarter century. South Coast Fire Equipment, the sole provider of Pierce engines in this region, is providing the purchasing quote (Attachment A) for the pumper at the base price reflective of a nationally utilized cooperative purchasing agreement. Used as a pricing standard throughout the fire service, this master contract is commonly known as the HGAC, or Houston Galveston Area Council Cooperative Purchasing Agreement. While the City is not purchasing through HGAC, the City’s price for this apparatus is the same as this cooperative purchasing agreement. The quote is only good through October 31, 2022 and the cost is expected to increase by 7%. The Fire Department has made significant parts, equipment, and training investment in maintaining Pierce-manufactured apparatus. Fire fleet already has an inventory of spare parts, filters, and maintenance items specific to the Pierce fire apparatus platform. Additionally, the Fire Department’s Fire Vehicle Mechanic is specially trained to provide maintenance to Pierce manufactured fire apparatus. Staff will return to Council with a consent item to affirm this purchase at the next available meeting. CONCURRENCES The Finance Department concurs with the Fire Department staff to sole source the new engine using the current quote from South Coast Fire Equipment. Additionally, after consultation with the Finance Director and the fact that the price will increase exponentially, staff was advised that a City Manager Report should be routed to execute a purchase order for the fire engine replacement. This was due to the October 4, 2022, appropriation of needed funding by Council, and the significant cost increases that would be incurred by delaying the issuance of a purchase order. Staff will include the details of the purchase commitment in the 1st quarter report that will be presented to Council on November 15, 2022. FISCAL IMPACT Council approved advancing the funding for the new engine on October 4, 2022,, by appropriating unassigned Local Revenue Measure Fund Balance to the accelerated purchase of the new engine. With the appropriated $900,000, the purchase of the engine is currently fully funded and will not need any financing. Page 216 of 501 Authorization to sole source purchase Pierce Arrow Fire Engine Page 3 Pierce Manufacturer pricing and the corresponding quote from South Coast expire on October 31, 2022, due to the manufacturer's annual price adjustments. Allowing the current quote to expire would increase the cost of the engine by a minimum $60,000, due to a scheduled 7% cost increase. Additionally, South Coast is providing a 100% prepayment discount of $36,000. Due to the availability of the funding, staff recommends the full prepayment of the fire engine purchase. Equipment Replacement Fund Project Costs Adopted Budget (FY 2022-23)900,000.00$ Base Unit Cost 847,343.00$ 100% Prepayment Discount (36,700.00)$ Adjusted Base Unit Cost 810,643.00$ Sales Tax (8.75%)70,931.26$ California Tire Fee 10.50$ Cost From Dealer 881,584.76$ Internal Vehicle Assembly Cost 18,415.24$ Total Vehicle/Project Cost 900,000.00$ ALTERNATIVES Deny the sole source purchase. Staff does not recommend this as the funds are approved as part of the budget amendment. Delaying the purchase will jeopardize the reliability of the Fire Department’s reserve apparatus fleet and likely result in significant replacement cost increases due to current market conditions. Pierce engines, the City’s standard fire engine, is only available through South Coast Fire Equipment that covers the west coast territory.

Authorize Fire Department to participate in a grant application process from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for funding to develop a multi - jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP); and 2. Authorize the City Manager, or their designee, to execute the gran t documents and approve the budget changes necessary to appropriate the grant amount upon notification that the grant has been awarded. POLICY CONTEXT Through the Hazard Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA 2000), the U.S. Congress set a goal to encourage local governments and states to develop plans and undertake projects to mitigate the impact of natural disasters on a community before disasters occur. Federal requirements established by FEMA as a result of this legislation, include a requirement that hazard mitigation plans be reviewed and updated a minimum of every five years, and following any major disaster declaration, to maintain eligibility for funding and technical assistance from state and Federal hazard mitigation programs. The Hazard Mitigation Plan aligns with the Council’s Major City Goal of Climate Action, as the plan is required to address the mitigation of climate-related emergencies and disasters. The recommended actions are consistent with the City of San Luis Obispo’s Financial Management Manual, Section 740 - Grant Management Policy. The policy states that Council will approve all grant applications in excess of $5,000 and delegates receipt and contract execution to the City Manager. DISCUSSION Page 223 of 501 Item 5j Background City Council adopted the City’s first Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP) in 2006 and later adopted the updated Local HMP in 2014. At the time of adoption, both documents were subsequently reviewed by the California Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES), and approved by FEMA. In 2017, the County of San Luis Obispo approached the City and proposed developing a multi-jurisdictional HMP for participating agencies throughout the County, which would meet the Federal requirements established by FEMA. The County would seek a grant to support the development of the plan requiring participating agencies to supply a proportional funding match based on each participating agency’s population. After considering the significant staff time and funding required to update the City’s 2014 HMP, the city partnered with the County to participate in the first multi-jurisdictional HMP which was updated in 2019 and formally approved in June 2020. As recommended by the FEMA’s Local Multi-Hazard Mitigation Planning Guidance, the County is now initiating the process of updating the current HMP by seeking a grant to manage the update. Staff is requesting authorization to partner with the County of San Luis Obispo who will submit the grant to FEMA. For the current HMP, the City’s cost-share was $4,500, which is expected to be similar to the match requirement for this 2025 update. Previous Council or Advisory Body Action On February 6, 2018, Council Authorized the Fire Department to participate in a County- led grant for updating the 2014 LHMP. On June 2, 2020, Council adopted the 2019 Multi- Jurisdictional HMP. Public Engagement This item is on the agenda for the June 20, 2023, City Council meeting and will follow all required postings and notifications. The public will have an opportunity to comment on this item at or before the meeting. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The California Environmental Quality Act does not apply to the recommended action in this report because the action does not constitute a “Project” under CEQA Guidelines Sec. 15378. FISCAL IMPACT Budgeted: No Budget Year: 2024-25 Funding Identified: Yes Page 224 of 501 Item 5j Fiscal Analysis: Funding Sources Total Budget Available Current Funding Request Remaining Balance Annual Ongoing Cost General Fund $4,500 $4,500 $ $0 State Federal Fees Other: Total $4,500 $ $ $0 A County-led multi-jurisdiction grant will result in significant cost savings to the city which it would otherwise bear through a sole-agency HMP grant. The City’s estimated grant match of $4,500 is considerably lower than the match required in 2012 which totaled $16,200. Additionally, the City would incur staff time needed to develop the gran t. FEMA requires a 25% match for the grant program. If awarded, the match for the grant would not be expended until fiscal year 2025. The department has the capacity to absorb this expense. ALTERNATIVE The Council could decide not to pursue the grant monies through a cooperative grant. This action is not recommended by staff as the grant opportunities are limited and the grant funds would only serve to enhance preparedness for, response to, and recovery from local disasters. Page 225 of 501 Page 226 of 501 Item 6a Department: Fire Cost Center: 8599 – Emergency Management For Agenda of: 8/15/2023 Placement: Business Estimated Time: 30 minutes FROM: Todd Tuggle, Fire Chief Prepared By: James Blattler, Emergency Manager SUBJECT: 2022-23 STORMS AFTER-ACTION REPORT AND POST-INCIDENT ACTION PLAN RECOMMENDATION Receive and file the 2022-2023 Storms After-Action Report and Post-Incident Improvement Plan. POLICY CONTEXT Per California Code of Regulations, Title 19, § 2450, any city, city and county, or county declaring a local emergency for which the governor proclaims a state of emergency, and any state agency responding to that emergency shall complete and transmit an after- action report to Cal OES. DISCUSSION In addition to California Code of Regulations requirements, it is best practice within emergency management to complete an after-action report and associated improvement plan with every Emergency Operations Center (EOC) activation. This allows for both successes and challenges to be highlighted and evaluated, which can either be continued or improved for future activations. The City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storm After- Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan (Attachment A) was completed in June 2023 and transmitted to Cal OES, as required, and to the San Luis Obispo County Office of Emergency Services, who act as the county’s operational area coordinator. This report and plan are specific to the late December and January storms. A separate report will be created for the late February and March storms at a future date. Background The after-action report and improvement plan were developed to capture City response actions and identify preparedness, response, and recovery actions to improve the City’s ability to manage future flood events and EOC activations. The report and improvement plan are not intended to judge success or failures , but rather to identify and assess processes that can be improved for future emergencies. Page 227 of 501 Item 6b The report and improvement plan were developed internally by the City’s Emergency Management Division under the Fire Department through the collection of internal and external feedback and observations provided through a variety of methods. The feedback collection process began in mid-January to ensure key events and observations were not lost due to time. Feedback was collected through individual conversations, department - compiled reports, emails, a City-wide survey, partner agency outreach, and a comprehensive debrief with the City’s leadership team held on April 25, 2023. The information provided through the report and improvement plan are not intended to include specific field-level actions, but rather high-level incident management and activities through the City’s EOC and Public Works Department Operations Center (DOC). Department-specific field after-action reviews were recommended to be completed internally by all departments. After-Action Report Highlights Overall, the feedback and observed activity showed that the City was effective in responding to and managing the impacts related to the series of winter storms encountered between the incident period of December 27, 2022, to January 31, 2023. Much of this success can likely be attributed to City investments in an effective policy and operational structure and support of training and investment into preparedness activities leading up to the incident period, recent experience managing the COVID-19 emergency, and inter-agency relationships. Council’s coordination with operational staff in highlighting key information and timely relaying community concerns was also critical. While the report highlights these successes, many areas of improvement were identified, which will improve the City’s performance during future events. The primary areas of improvement identified included communications, facilities, technology, and planning processes. Post-Incident Improvement Plan While the goal of the after-action report is to identify the successes and challenges that occurred during the incident, the improvement plan is used to create actions items out of the report’s findings. The improvement plan will be used to assist staff in planning, executing, and tracking action items moving forward. Each item was assigned a delivery timeframe, resource needs and priority level. Out of the 27 action items in the improvement plan, eight (8) were identified as high priority, fifteen (15) as medium priority, and four (4) as low priority. While most of the items only require staff time, some may require operating budget dollars, or capital improvement funding. Any action items that require funding outside of the City’s appropriated operating budgets will be added for consideration for future budgets or through external funding opportunities , such as grants. Previous Council or Advisory Body Action On January 10, 2023 City Council confirmed approval of the Emergency Services Director’s proclamation of existence of a local emergency issued on January 9, 2023. Page 228 of 501 Item 6b Public Engagement This item is on the agenda for the August 15, 2023, City Council meeting and will follow all required postings and notifications. The public will have an opportunity to comment on this item at or before the meeting. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The California Environmental Quality Act does not apply to the recommended action in this report, because the action does not constitute a “Project” under CEQA Guidelines Sec. 15378. FISCAL IMPACT Budgeted: No Budget Year: 2022-23 Funding Identified: No Fiscal Analysis: Funding Sources Total Budget Available Current Funding Request Remaining Balance Annual Ongoing Cost General Fund $ $0 $ $ State Federal Fees Other: Total $ $0 $ $ There are no financial impacts associated with the recommendation to receive and file the report and improvement plan. Any costs associated with implementing the improvement plan will fall under currently appropriated operating budgets or put for council consideration for future budget or grant opportunities. ALTERNATIVES Council could decide not to receive and file the 2022-2023 Storms After-Action Report and Post-Incident Improvement Plan. This action is not recommended by staff because the report and improvement plan codify important learning lessons for current and future staff and are used to enhance the City’s ability to prepare for, respond to, and recover from future emergencies and disasters.

EXECUTIVE S UMMARY REPORT AND ACTION PLAN SUMMARY The City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storm After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan have been developed to capture city response actions and identify preparedness, response, and recovery actions to improve the City’s ability to manage future flood events and Emergency Operations Center (EOC) activations. The Report and Improvement Plan are not intended to judge success or failures but rather identify and assess processes that can be improved for future emergencies. The Report and Improvement Plan were developed internally by the City’s Emergency Management Division under the Fire Department through the collection of internal and external feedback and observations provided to the Emergency Manager through a variety of methods and mediums. REPORT HIGHLIGHTS Overall, the feedback and observed activity showed that the city was effective in responding to and managing the impacts related to the series of winter storms encountered between December 27, 2022, and January 31, 2023. Much of this success can likely be attributed to (1) the City’s top-leadership support of training and investment into preparedness activities leading up to the incident period, (2) recent experience managing the COVID-19 emergency, and (3) inter-agency relationships. While this report highlights these successes, many areas of improvement were identified, which will improve the City’s performance during future events. The primary areas of improvement identified included communications, facilities, technology, and planning processes. • Internal communications improvements likely would have resulted in more timely and complete external communications, increased support to the Public Works Department Operation Center (DOC), and overall improved efficiency within the Emergency Operations Center and general City operations. • The Emergency Operations Center (EOC) has both space and technology limitations that impacted operational efficiencies. While the space challenges are more difficult to overcome in the short term, leveraging existing City software platforms can help alleviate some current limitations. • Earlier integrations of a Geospatial Information Systems (GIS) specialist into the DOC would have likely improved the EOC’s situational status awareness and the external facing City website dashboard featuring road closures and storm impacts. • The relocation of the DOC from the Corporation Yard to the Ludwick Center caused some operational impacts. • Overall, partner agency feedback was very positive with potential improvements in the accessibility of current road closure and storm impact information. Page 233 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 4 of 31 • Proactive early alerting and outreach to homeless community members living in and near the creeks potentially saved lives. • Strengthening the connection between pre-planned shelter locations, the city, Red Cross, and County OES likely would have resulted in faster activation of shelters for evacuees. • Improved floodgate program awareness and outreach efforts can improve the number of floodgate deployments for future events. • The City highly relied upon non-profits to meet sheltering needs of unhoused community members. • Rapidly conducting initial damage estimates utilizing mobile GIS technology assisted in the recovery efforts of both public and individual needs, however earlier integration and review of senior engineering staff may have improved the accuracy of damage estimates which increased over time.

R EPORT DEVELOPMENT PROCESS & REPORT LIMITATIONS F EEDBACK P ROCESS Internal and external feedback used to inform this report was gathered through a variety of methods. The feedback collection process began in mid-January to ensure key events and observations were not lost due to time. Feedback was collected through individual conversations, department-compiled reports, emails, a City-wide survey, partner agency outreach, and a comprehensive debrief with the City’s leadership team that was held on April 25, 2023. R EPORT M ETHODOLOGY The information provided through this report and subsequent action plan are not intended to include specific field-level actions, but rather high-level incident management and activities through the City’s Emergency Operations Center and Public Works Department Operations Center. Department-specific field after-action reviews were recommended to be completed internally by all departments. R EPORT & IMPROVEMENT P LAN L IMITATIONS While a comprehensive attempt was made to gather feedback from both internal and external stakeholders, it is inherent that not all useful feedback was gathered through the input process. Without a complete evaluation from all response personnel and cooperating partner agencies, the report has limitations in its ability to identify all areas of success and challenges. Additionally, not all incident-related improvements will have been captured by this report as City staff members made quick, individual adaptations during their response. It is also expected that additional challenges and resource restrictions will be encountered while implementing the Post-Incident Improvement Plan recommendations. Staff will work to identify and overcome these challenges within the available resources and leverage available external resources to complete the Improvement Plan as they become available.

S UMMARY OF E VENTS & R ESPONSE A CTIVITIES W EATHER AND I NCIDENT S UMMARY A series of winter storms that occurred between the period of December 27, 2022, and January 31, 2023, resulted in significant flooding and other storm-related impacts City-wide. These impacts peaked on January 9th when parts of San Luis Obispo received over 6” of rain over 24-hours, most of which fell within the first 12 hours of the day. The impacts of this rainfall were exacerbated by previous rain events during the period, which oversaturated the ground and led to widespread flooding. Estimated to be a 25-year flood event and was the worst flooding observed in San Luis Obispo since the winters of 1995 and 1998. High winds with the winter storms also created impacts due to downed trees which fell on the City rights- of-way, private property, and into the creek system. Creek flows transported debris to collection points such as culverts and bridges and resulted in blockages at various points throughout the city. This section summarizes the four distinct weather periods and resulting impacts during the entire incident period between December 27 and January 31. RAIN AND CREEK LEVEL DATA Rainfall increment and accumulation, and creek level data were pulled from the County of San Luis Obispo Public Works Department Water Resources Division website. The rainfall totals referenced below are an average between the three local rain gauge monitoring sites, (1) the “Gas Company” near Broad St. and Industrial Way, (2) “Camp San Luis” located North of the city limits, and “SLO Reservoir – P” located North of Highway 101, Northeast of the City limits. The creek levels mentioned in this report will use two locations of reference, the “Marsh Street Bridge” near the intersection of Marsh St and S Higuera St. and “Madonna Road” where laguna lake outflows into Prefumo Creek underneath Madonna Rd. While flooding was observed in many locations throughout the city, these are the primary areas where flooding most significantly impacted residents and businesses. DECEMBER 27 – JANUARY 7 Over the 12-days between December 27 and January 8 parts of San Luis Obispo received over 6” of rain that was delivered over a series of storms. While the creek systems were able to convey the amount of rainfall during this period without reaching flood stages, this recurring rainfall led to significant ground saturation leading up to the January 9 weather event. Additionally, these series of storms also brought high winds which resulted in fallen trees throughout the city. The Marsh St. sensor reached “Full Storm Flow Stage” on December 31 and January 4, but did not reach the bottom of the bridge. The Madonna Rd. sensor peaked at approximately 3.6’ below the bottom of the bridge on these days as well. JANUARY 8 – 10 Between January 8th and 10th, San Luis Obispo received nearly 7” of rainfall, with the majority of this rain falling during the first 12 hours of January 9. The steady and heavy rainfall and high winds in the early Page 236 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 7 of 31 morning hours on January 9 led to most creek gauges reaching or exceeding flood stage between 5:15 AM and 6:15 AM. San Luis Obispo Creek under Marsh St. Bridge exceeded the roadway level after 5:30 AM and significant flooding was observed in the area along S. Higuera St., Parker St., and Beebee St. between Marsh St. and Madonna Rd by 6:00 AM. At the Madonna Rd. sensor, water levels peaked at approximately 4 PM on January 9. The areas most impacted by the heightened water levels at this point in the day were on the West side of Oceanaire Dr. Other areas that observed significant flooding included the areas of (1) Los Osos Valley Rd. and Calle Joaquin, (2) Tank Farm Rd. between S. Higuera St. and Broad St., and (3) Fiero Lane off of Broad St. NOTE: The Marsh St. sensor became damaged and was removed by San Luis Obispo County Public Works Staff at approximately 6:17 AM on January 9. JANUARY 11 – 16 A brief break in weather systems on January 11 and 12 allowed the creek levels to recede, which helped reduce the impacts associated with a significant weather system that delivered over 3” of rain between January 13 and 16. This system brought periods of heavy rainfall, which was most active on January 14. The creek systems were stressed during this event, however, only limited flooding occurred throughout the city. The Marsh St sensor was reinstalled on January 13 and registered San Luis Obispo Creek exceeding the bottom of the bridge on January 14 between 12:00 PM and 1:00 PM but later fell below the “Full Storm Flow Stage” by 3:45 PM that day. JANUARY 17 – 31 Limited rainfall was observed in San Luis Obispo between January 17 and 31. Nearly 0.5” fell during this period which was delivered between small weather systems on January 19th and 29th. R ESPONSE A CTIVITIES SUMMARY For the purposes of this report the City’s response activities have been divided up into three separate sections: (1) field operations, (2) emergency operations center, and (3) pre-EOC activation response activities. FIELD OPERATIONS Public Works: The City’s Public Works response team was active during the entire incident period from response to recovery efforts. The public works storm patrol was activated for a total of eight days with the Public Works Department Operations Center (DOC) supporting those efforts each day. Storm Patrol & Department Operations Center Active Days: December 27, 31, January 4, 5, 9, 10, 11, 14. During these active periods, the Public Works Department led the City’s effort to manage city-wide impacts including inspecting known flood sites, clearing rock guards, replenishing sand at the four sand- fill locations throughout the city, processing storm-related calls for service, rapid removal of debris and downed branches and trees in the city right-of-way, traffic control for road closures, removal of debris Page 237 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 8 of 31 from creeks that hindered water conveyance, inspected damage sites, and managed contract crews to augment the high service demand. While active, the storm patrol operated 24 hours/a day through day and night shifts. One particularly notable action taken by Public Works was the proactive closure of the Marsh St. / Highway 101 on and off ramps to allow for the closure of the Marsh St. Bridge at South Higuera. This action was first taken in advance of the January 14 storm. The closure allowed public works staff to partially remove bridge railings to reduce potential strainers for San Luis Obispo Creek flowing underneath and, install k-rail barriers to re-divert flood waters back into the creek channel. This location was the source of much of the flooding that impacted the South Higuera Corridor. After January 14 through the end of the incident period, the Public Works department activity was focused on recovery activities including debris and contractor management addressing both emergency and exigent needs that resulted from the storm and flooding. Utilities: The Utilities Department provided significant support to the public works storm response teams and department operations center, particularly during the January 9-14 period. Some of the highlights of the Utilities Department-specific response activities throughout the incident period include: • Utilities staff were initially assigned to storm patrol areas with Public Works Streets crews to monitor and identify flood-prone areas. As the incident period progressed, Utilities staff became more familiar with the storm patrol areas more were able to assume responsibility for field response from Public Works crews, affording them rest from the continuous work. • Crews utilized specialized Utilities equipment including hydro-excavating trucks with high ground clearance to clear drainage and remove mud and other debris. • The Chief Water Distribution Operator acted as a field coordinator for storm patrol and field response crews, provided City administration with a tour of affected areas, and later during the storm event moved to the DOC to supplement command staff with field response and communications. The Utilities Director aided in the DOC during the event, assisting the Public Works Director and City Administration. • Crews proactively serviced sewer facilities to improve the system’s ability to convey sewage to the Water Resource Recovery Facility (WRRF) and reduce the potential for overflows. • Staff located level monitoring devices in key, high-risk locations to monitor for potential spills. While the WRRF received the highest flows on record, the facility remained in compliance for the duration of the storms. The wastewater collection system had only one minor spill (<5,000 gallons) on 12/31/2022 related to grease accumulation in the downtown corridor. While other agencies in the region had numerous high-volume spills, no other spills were recorded in SLO, which is a testament to an effective pretreatment program and sewer preventative maintenance and active monitoring. Staff responded to a downed power line near the Calle Joaquin lift station, which resulted in flooding and pump failures, and kept the system operational with no spills. Crews were able to mitigate the damage to the control panels and keep the 250,000+ gallon per day station operational without issue. Page 238 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 9 of 31 • Crews proactively serviced stormwater facilities to improve the system’s ability to convey stormwater through the multiple storm events. • Staff coordinated dumpster drop-off locations in city limits for residents to dispose of their storm- generated debris from their homes and yards at no cost to residents. Over 19 tons (38,000 pounds) of materials were disposed of. Public Safety: Public safety teams participated in both proactive outreach and emergency response activities. The proactive activities are summarized in the “Pre-EOC Activation Response Activities” section below. During the early morning hours of January 9, the on-duty Fire Department Battalion Chief began patrolling the city to identify potential rain-related impacts. Between 6:00 and 6:30 AM the Battalion Chief identified rising creek waters approaching and exceeding flood levels and began to coordinate and assign resources to assist with potential rescues and evacuations that may be needed should waters continue to rise. The Fire Department identified two temporary refuge sites to send evacuees until conditions improved or a Red Cross shelter was established. These sites were at the Marigold Shopping Center at Broad St. and Tank Farm Rd. and the Foothill Plaza at Foothill Blvd. and Broad St . One Fire Inspector was sent to each location to help liaison with evacuees however no evacuees were identified at these temporary sites. To help manage the incident, Fire Incident Commander organized their response by splitting the city into two branches. Branch 1 covered areas North of South St. and Brach 2 covered areas to the South. On January 9th the fire department responded to a total of 55 calls for services including 3 swift water rescues, 12 medical emergencies, and a water evacuation. To put the number of calls for service in perspective, the annual average daily calls for service in 2022 was less than 20. In response to the surge in demand for service and widespread flooding, the fire department held all personnel on-duty and called in all off-duty staff to augment to standard daily staffing numbers of 14 bringing to total to 39 allowing the department to up-staff three additional response units including Patrol 1 (a type 6 fire engine), Engine 5 (a type 1 reserve fire engine) and Engine 6 (a type 3 fire engine). The Police Department also saw a surge in response demand on January 9 as they responded to a total of 95 calls for service. The dispatch center received a total of 746 9-1-1 and non-emergency calls from the public while the average daily numbers in comparison are 296. The response focus from the police department on January 9 included evacuations, road closures, and traffic hazards related to the storm. Additionally, after the January 9 storm event began to subside, staff conducted creek checks related to the unhoused population. The evacuation notifications were made at 7 different locations including Dana St. Matthews Trailer Lodge at 274 Higuera St, and Valle Vista Trailer Park at 333 Elks Ln. The Police Department also issued a “Shelter-in-Place” advisory on January 9 due to continued forecasted rainfall and existing flooding. Staffing levels also increased significantly on January 9 with a total of 33 officers on duty for both day and night shifts, 16 of which were on overtime, and a total of 7 dispatchers for both day and night shifts which was an increase of 3 dispatchers from their normal levels. EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER The Emergency Services Director first activated the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) at 0745 on January 9 at the recommendation of the Fire Chief after receiving field reports of widespread flooding, evacuation, and rescue operations. The EOC was opened at a Level 2 activation and remained physically Page 239 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 10 of 31 staffed between 0745 to 2100 on January 9 and 0530 to 1700 on January 10 at which point the EOC was transitioned into a virtual Level 3 EOC through the remainder of the incident period. The Emergency Manager began assembling the EOC at 0630 based on observed conditions and anticipated need to activate and notified the County OES Duty Officer of local conditions and impacts at 0700. After activation, the EOC focused on gathering operational intelligence for the 0930 “Initial EOC Briefing” and established management objectives to meet incident needs. The initial operational period length was established at 12 hours which remained in place for two periods before switching to a 24-hour operation period on January 10 and a 7-day operational period beginning on January 11. EOC Staff followed the EOC Operational Period planning cycle to produce an EOC Action Plan and continued this cycle through operational periods throughout the activation. The primary activities of the EOC involved public communications, supporting the Public Works DOC and field staff, supporting the EOC staff, and ensuring appropriate coordination between County OES, allied agencies, and participating local volunteer and non-profit organizations. The EOC also established temporary sheltering at local hotels for city staff members who were unable to travel home due to safety concerns or road closures. Several employees utilized this sheltering. As immediate threats to life and safety diminished, the EOC began actively managing recovery activities through the coordination of initial damage estimates and documentation for state and federal public assistance programs. PRE-EOC ACTIVATION RESPONSE ACTIVITIES City and County Coordination Calls: In preparation for potential widespread impacts associated with the forecasted storms, the city Emergency Manager attended several County Operational Area Coordination calls that were organized and facilitated by the San Luis Obispo County Office of Emergency Services. These calls included San Luis Obispo County-specific weather briefings from the National Weather Service and County-wide updates on preparedness actions across jurisdictions. Prior to January 9, these briefings took place on January 3 and January 8. The city also held a storm coordination call among all departments on January 4 to ensure all departments were informed of the anticipated storm impacts and that internal resource needs were met leading into the forecasted significant weather events. Staff also attended National Weather Service (NWS) briefings provided by the NWS Los Angeles Office which here held to inform area agencies of the forecasted weather events that had the potential to bring flooding and other storm-related impacts. Public Communications: The Fire Department and City shared multiple public communications leading up to the EOC activation on January 9th. The information focused on the weather forecast, preparedness actions, and how to report storm-related issues. Social Media alerts were issued on January 3rd in anticipation of significant weather on January 4 and 5, and on January 8 in anticipation of significant weather between January 9 and 10. A City news release was issued on January 4th. Additionally, the City Emergency Manager completed a media interview regarding city and community preparedness actions. Page 240 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 11 of 31 Homeless Outreach: City staff and departments involved in homeless services or response attended a “Creek Encampment Discussion – Storm Impacts” meeting to discuss the best approach and strategy to address safety concerns for unhoused community members living in encampment areas in and adjacent to the Creek. The meeting resulted in an agreed-upon strategy to conduct extensive outreach to all known encampments along the city creeks to communicate the impending danger and stress the need to move to higher ground. The primary teams conducting this outreach included the Mobile Crisis Unit, Community Action Team, fire and police emergency response staff, and ranger services. All areas where occupants refused to leave or showed resistance to leaving were identified. A CTIVATED E MERGENCY P LANS & P ROCEDURES EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLAN The City’s Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) underwent a comprehensive update in 2020 and was again updated in 2022, prior to these changes the City’s EOP was a 2011 document. The city benefited greatly from these changes as it added both a Debris Management and Recovery Plan, both of which were leveraged during the incident period. In addition to these plans, the EOC activated the Adverse Weather Annex of the EOP which includes storms, windstorms, severe winter storms, and localized flooding among other adverse weather conditions. Information on how the plans were specifically leveraged is discussed in the Strengths and Challenges Assessment section below. PUBLIC WORKS STORM AND FLOOD RESPONSE PLAN The Public Works Storm and Flood Response plan was most recently revised in March 2018 but has not undergone a comprehensive update since at least 2009. The plan provides response staff guidance on response levels, emergency call-taker procedures between City dispatch and the DOC, objectives and priorities, roles and responsibilities, resource inventories, and communication procedures. The Response Plan was leveraged by the Public Works team during the eight days that both the storm patrol and DOC were active during the incident period. INCIDENT AND EOC ACTION PLANS The Public Works Department developed Incident Action Plans for each Storm Patrol and DOC activation. These plans provided incident objectives, details on the weather event forecast and anticipated impacts, operational deployment structure based on the level of actual storm impacts, and communication resources including contact information, public information news releases, and social media copy. The operational period of the Incident Action Plans was set to match the forecasted adverse weather period. The EOC produced a total of six (6) Action Plans to support the City’s response to the storms during the incident period, beginning on the morning of January 9. The operational periods began at 12 hours and ran for two cycles. On January 10 at 0800 the EOC moved to a 24-hour operational period and on January 11 the EOC moved to a seven-day operational period after the EOC was downgraded to a level 3 virtual activation. Page 241 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 12 of 31 R ECOVERY A CTIVITES T O D ATE SUMMARY The city began recovery activities in the early hours of the initial EOC activation on January 9 through various functions of the EOC. The local emergency proclamation, documentation, and initial damage estimate planning all occurred on January 9 which set the city up for success through short- and long-term recovery activities. RECOVER BRANCH & ACTION PLANS On January 10 the EOC formalized the Recovery function of the EOC by establishing an organizational structure of a Recovery Unit under the Finance Section, as outlined in the City’s EOP. The initial recovery objectives focused on completing public and private damage estimates, restoring city services to pre- storm condition, connecting impacted businesses and community members to support resources, and conducting debris management activities. The objectives and activities of the recovery unit were captured under the EOC Action Plan through the Incident Period. As the workload and complexities of recovery increased after the incident period ending January 31, the city moved from an EOC Action Plan to a Recovery Action Plan which provided a more robust and defined organizational structure, objectives, and assignments. PUBLIC AND INDIVIDUAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS Due to the impacts the storm and flooding had on both public and individual property. On January 17, San Luis Obispo County was added to the Presidential Major Disaster Declaration including both Public and Individual Assistance. The Public Assistance categories initially only covered categories A and B (debris removal and emergency protective measures accordingly) until the permanent work categories C-G were later added on February 1. Categories A & B were added at 100% FEMA coverage, 25% the normal cost share for the first 60 days of the incident. For Public Assistance the City has participated in the Cal OES Applicants Briefing, FEMA Exploratory Call, FEMA Recovery Scoping Meeting, completed the Damage Inventory and is working through project site visits and scoping, along with project formation at the time this report was written. The city hired a consultant agency to assist with subject matter expertise to help maximize cost recovery through FEMA Public Assistance through the use of Category Z, management costs. To assist with Individuals, the city expanded permit review hours to help streamline any construction permits needed to resolve storm-related damage and widely promoted the available federal programs offered under Individual Assistance. Additionally, the County’s Disaster Recovery Center (DAC) / Local Assistance Center (LAC) was opened in San Luis Obispo at the Veterans Memorial Building which provided services for those seeking Individual Assistance. The DAC/LAC remained open until February 14. Limited support was provided to the DAC / LAC from the City staff as the facility was managed by FEMA, Cal OES , and County OES.

S TRENGTHS AND C HALLENGES A SSESSMENT EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER (EOC) Overall, the City quickly and effectively activated the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) and was successful at reaching established objectives supporting the protection of life, and safety and limiting the loss of property and should be commended for the effectiveness that the EOC operated given that outside of COVID-19, the City’s EOC had likely not been activated since the flooding that occurred in the mid-late 1990s. The rapid and successful activation can be attributed to several factors: (1) much preparedness work was completed the week prior due to anticipated impacts associated with the January 4-5 storms system including ensuring position-specific resources were organized and readily available, updating and printing maps and EOC aids including the Planning P, (2) City storm coordination calls that took place the previous week, (3) proactive communications between emergency response field staff, City Emergency Manager and Fire Chief Officers the morning of January 9, (4) decisive action from the City Manager/Emergency Services Director to activate, and (5) rapid response of personnel to the EOC. The success of the EOC was aided by City leadership’s investment in emergency management and preparedness. Prior to the incident, this support translated to funding contract EOC training for City staff between 2021 and 2022, participating in the FEMA Emergency Management Institute’s Community- Specific Integrated Emergency Management Course in April 2022, and funding a full-time emergency manager position. These investments increased the skills and depth of the EOC team and provided a strong foundation for staff to fill the roles required with an EOC activation. Despite the overall success, there were several challenges that the EOC encountered: (1) The Public Works DOC voiced that EOC support could have been improved during the first 24 hours following activation. Based on feedback received from the DOC at the end of the first operation period, the EOC was able to focus attention on these shortcomings to make improvements. Some of the areas of needed support included assigning a GIS specialist to the DOC, improved direct communications between the DOC and EOC, and improved timing of meals being delivered for field staff coming off the night shift. The lack of a GIS specialist in the DOC resulted in delayed and incomplete road-closure details populating the City’s public dashboard. Communications between the DOC and EOC may have been improved through a change in EOC Operations Section staffing structure. On January 9, the Fire Chief filled the Operations Section Coordinator role, and the Deputy Director of Public Works / City Engineer filled the Public Works Branch Leader position which is the structure that continued throughout the incident period. Placing the Public Works Director into the EOC Deputy Operations Coordinator on January 9 would likely have improved communications and support to the DOC. Additionally, the support likely would have been improved had the EOC transitioned the Operations Coordinator position to the Public Works Director beginning on January 10 after rescue and evacuation life safety concerns diminished. Page 243 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 14 of 31 (2) The EOC facility is a shared space and is limited in both size and technology which impacted operational efficiencies. The facility, which primarily serves as the Fire Department Training room, lacks the square footage necessary to seat the staffing required to operate a level 2 or level 1 EOC activation and requires sections and staff to work in separate areas. Additionally, because the space is shared, the EOC resources must be pulled from storage and assembled at the time of activation. Additionally, the EOC contains a total of three monitor screens and a projector. The maximum variation of displays currently capable is 2. This limitation limits what essential elements of information can be in the EOC. Finally, the city has yet to deploy a robust EOC Software Program to manage documentation and communications during an activation. This challenge was lessened by the prior development of an EOC Resource Page on SharePoint, which serves as the central repository of all EOC documentation including incident-specific documents. An integration of this site and EOC Microsoft Teams may be a viable, low cost, and near-term solution to the software shortcoming. (3) Communication flow gaps between the various response groups including the EOC, DOC, field, and dispatch impacted the timeliness and accuracy of information to both internal and external stakeholders. One of the most apparent items was the status of road closures. It became clear that a number of issues and concerns that were identified in the DOC were not relayed to the EOC due to a lack of staffing resources to relay the information. An EOC software with situation status reporting and defined liaison roles between the working groups may be a solution to these gaps. (4) At times meetings used for the planning process to develop the EOC Action Plans lacked clarity on who should participate and the agendas of the meetings. These resources were available but did not get fully leveraged. Training and verbiage updates to the “Planning P” should help overcome these challenges. (5) Request tracking from the DOC and other field staff was limited. While all resource requests seemed to have been met, having a tracking spreadsheet would have helped confirm this and improved the accountability of resources. Additionally, this tracking would have likely expedited any resource requests needed to be made to the Operational Area Coordinator, County OES. (6) The City has a Disabilities, Access, and Functional Needs Officer identified in the EOC organizational structure; however, a staff member was not assigned to fill this role and ultimately responsibilities were assumed by the Emergency Services Director who lacked the capacity to address the position’s responsibilities. A conversation occurred early on January 9 to staff the position, however, there was a lack of follow-through by EOC staff to activate it. Part of the reason this occurred is the pre-identified staff position in the city was vacant at the time of the activation. Training and pre-established expectations should resolve this from being repeated for future events. (7) While ultimately not needed, the EOC lacked an identified plan or structure to staff the EOC overnight beyond a small skeleton crew. This may have caused significant operational impacts should the incident have required full EOC staffing overnight. (8) Currently no robust notification system exists to push notifications to staff, which is the policy under the EOP when the EOC is activated. This challenge did not ultimately impact the EOC as an email sent to EOC staff members on January 9 successfully reached staff, however, emails are not effective ways to reach staff, especially during off-work hours. Page 244 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 15 of 31 PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT OPERATIONS CENTER (DOC) Overall, the Public Works Department Operations Center (DOC) effectively managed the demanding and complex response needed to manage the impacts caused by the series of storms that San Luis Obispo experienced during the incident period. The DOC was especially successful at adapting response levels to meet community and incident needs, including the relocation of the DOC facility and the proactive closure of the Marsh Street bridge at the intersection of S. Higuera St. The incident response also provided an opportunity to conduct knowledge transfer between seasoned staff and newer employees. Additionally, the DOC was successful at deploying a combination of city staff and hired contractors to address reported hazards and staff road closures. Several DOC challenges were identified above as they were related to EOC activities (see items 1, 3, and 5). In addition to these aforementioned items, the DOC faced some other notable challenges: (1) DOC Location: The Public Works DOC’s primary location is the City Corporation Yard at 25 Prado Ln. which is the operational headquarters for the department and houses fleet, equipment, and supplies. Under normal circumstances this is the ideal location for a Public Works DOC, however, the property sits in a flood plain and was impacted by flooding during the January 9 Storm which required staff to move the DOC to the alternate site, the Ludwick Community Center (Ludwick). This site served the DOC well as it provides ample staging area for equipment and vehicles, has the needed infrastructure to support DOC activities, and is well outside any flood zone. The transition to Ludwick caused some operational impacts and subsequently staff preemptively located future DOC activations at the Ludwick. It is recommended that the DOC’s primary location be moved to the Ludwick for all flood-related incidents unless a more suitable location is identified outside of flood-prone areas. (2) Staffing: Due to the extended and repetitive nature of the storms during the incident period, Public Works Staff worked extended hours for multiple days at a time, with little relief. While DOC staff did an admirable job at keeping up with the incident despite the challenging conditions, and effectively managed the storm, a staffing plan including outside department staff member support would likely establish a more sustainable schedule for staff. Additionally, this will help ensure department leadership can maintain a presence within the City EOC as Operations Section Coordinator or Deputy Operations Section Coordinator. Finally, better leverage of the Incident Command System can improve the DOC’s ability to match staffing levels to meet incident demands. (3) Resource Tracking (location availability): While the DOC effectively assigned resources, significant communication and coordination was required to dispatch the proper units needed to address a newly identified incident, or an existing incident that required additional resources. Having a visual location identification system, similar to technology used by police and fire, would create efficiencies for DOC dispatching staff and the incident commander. (4) Communications between the Field and DOC: Per the Public Works Storm and Flood Response Plan, radio communications utilize plain talk and first and last names. Mixed feedback was received regarding the use of names as some feedback indicated that call signs might avoid confusion for staff with duplicate first names. Radio communications naming structure should be Page 245 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 16 of 31 evaluated during future Storm and Flood Response Plan updates. Additionally, the high call volume, specifically on January 9, caused staff to be overwhelmed, which impacted communications. A reflexive staffing model built into the storm response plan would be beneficial for future responses. INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL COMMUNICATIONS SUMMARY One of the most essential elements of an effective response and management of large-scale incidents and natural disasters is communication but is also of the greatest challenges in emergency management. Communication needs apply to both internal (response staff, leadership, policymakers, and non- responding employees) and external (the general public, and partner agencies) stakeholders to ensure these groups get the right information, at the right time, so they can make the right decisions. Overall, feedback regarding communications was widely positive from both internal and external stakeholders. Despite this positive feedback, there were many challenges that impacted communications. Many of these challenges have been identified in the EOC and DOC sections above (see EOC items I, 2, 3, and 8 and DOC item 1), this section outlines other key findings related to communications. INTERNAL (1) One of the most frequent public-city interactions occurs at the front desk and general phone lines of city departments and facilities. As such, most city administrative assistant staff who are responsible for these areas saw a significant number of requests for information from community members. During the incident period, most of these staff members lacked access to the incident update chat that the EOC and DOC used on Microsoft Teams and did not have current information to answer public inquiries. As the incident period progressed, more and more of these staff members gained access but very few had the information available on January 9. Moving forward a process should be formalized to ensure that these staff members are automatically included on updates of verified and publicly approved essential elements of information. Additionally, quick sheets with key incident information and referral sites (phone numbers, websites) should be provided to these employees as quickly as possible. (2) The city currently lacks any program to provide instant notification to City employees outside of email or computer-based platforms. This delays essential information from being received by staff until they review emails, causing even further delays if the employee does not have a city-issued cell phone with email capabilities. On January 9 the EOC decided to close non-essential city facilities and encourages staff to work from home, if possible. Most employees did not learn or see this information until arriving at work that morning. A mobile phone-based notification system can make significant improvements to this challenge. (3) To improve the situational awareness of the storms and associated hazards a total of 17 “All City Employee” emails were issued to alert staff to severe weather forecasts and issued warnings from the National Weather Service. Additionally, an All-City Email was sent out at 7:56 AM on January 9 informing staff that the City EOC had been activated and included some instructions for actions Page 246 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 17 of 31 that staff should take along with a brief situation status report and safety message. These communications received a significant amount of positive feedback both during and after the incident. One area of improvement that was expressed was for City leadership to conduct a city- wide virtual briefing summarizing the extent of the emergency, actions taken by the city, and future outlook. EXTERNAL (1) On January 9 the EOC developed a city landing page with a website banner that included essential incident-related information including storm preparedness, sandbag fill locations, and a map dashboard showing road closures and hazard details. This site remained open throughout the incident period and later added key recovery information for community members. One of the biggest challenges with this page was the timely updating of the road-closure map on January 9. This challenge has been previously discussed and likely occurred due to the communication gaps between the EOC and DOC and the DOC not having a GIS specialist in-house on that day. (2) Communication challenges were observed with the business community. While communications were reaching these groups, feedback received from downtown businesses was that earlier proactive communications would have been helpful. This includes information on floodgates and potential pre-established trigger points for floodgate deployment or evacuations. Given the successive nature of the storms during the incident period, there was general fatigue reported from businesses regarding closures and business disruptions. Additionally, certain areas, even within downtown, saw very limited storm impacts while others experience significant flooding and loss. Education on emergency procedures around shelter-in-place, evacuation warnings and orders, and road closures and legal authorities from the city would be very impactful for some business owners. (3) While there is limited feedback on how well the information was received, a significant amount of proactive storm communications took place leading up to the January 9 events. A summary of these activities is included in the “Pre-EOC Activation Public Communications” section above. Communications took place over traditional and social media platforms, some lacked multi- language formatting, which means the messaging may have missed certain community groups. Additionally, these traditional communication methods don’t reach a large group of the population as they require community members to be active on social media, watch local news, or subscribe to City news notifications. Leveraging other communication methods would likely improve the reach of key messaging and may include door-to-door notifications, targeted mailers, and physical signage. (4) After the immediate health and safety threats diminished, external communications transitioned to focus on recovery resources and established an abbreviated recovery URL for the City website (slocity.org/recover). This included possible individual recovery resources available through the City, County, State, FEMA, the Small Business Administration, and other programs. Additionally, an initial concern and focus related to assisting community members handle debris associated with the storms, which very shortly after the January 9 and January 14 weather events began to be deposited onto City right-of-way areas, posing health and environmental concerns. To assist Page 247 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 18 of 31 the community with debris removal and management, the city provided several roll-off dumpsters near the hardest hit areas and the City Corp Yard at no cost to the community. While these events were widely used and a huge help and benefit, some feedback stated that communications could have been improved by showing the rules, requirements, and operating hours of these resources. Detailed signage, door hangers, and improved knowledge from those staffing these sites would have likely eased some community frustrations over the lack of information. (5) After the storm, the city sent out several staff members to conduct damage surveys. Because these staff members were often the first direct post-storm interaction with residents, the community members were often hungry for information. While the damage survey teams were equipped with some key talking points and direction on where to send community members for questions they weren’t able to answer, some feedback reported frustration over the lack of information these staff members were able to provide. A more robust resource page for these teams would have likely helped this challenge. EXTERNAL AGENCY COORDINATION SUMMARY A critical component to managing complex incidents that require the activation of the EOC is effective external agency and partner coordination. This function is primarily managed by EOC staff and led by the Liaison Officer. The primary external agencies that the City coordinated or partnered with fall under four categories: (1) educational institutions, (2) government agencies, (3) private industry, and (4) non- governmental organizations or non-profits. The city proactively fosters these relationships through day-to-day business interactions and through the provision of city services, which helped the city leverage these relationships during the incident to ensure community groups were informed on critical information, and secured assistance when needed. While most of this coordination was successful, a few notable challenges were identified both during the incident and during the after-action surveys, interviews, and outreach. EDUCATION Local lower-education institutions including the local school district, private, and charter schools often look for information and guidance from the County Board of Education. Due to the county-wide nature of the storms, information making it to local agencies may have been delayed and impacted local lower- educational institutions to make timely decisions on school closures or altered operations. Cal Poly State University and the City EOC were in continuous contact with each other. Cal Poly had critical decisions to make regarding the cancellation of in-person classes and the closure of non-essential services. The city provided information to the University to assist in their decision making including an early morning conference call on January 10. One challenge that occurred between Cal Poly and the City related to the disposal of dairy lagoon supernatant. The University needed to dispose of this contaminated water Page 248 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 19 of 31 as it was at risk of spilling into nearby waterways and sought disposal sites. Early confusion on January 9 led the University to temporarily believe the City’s Wastewater Treatment Plant would accept the pond volume, however, the City Utilities Department quickly corrected this miscommunication and attempted to assist the university in an alternate disposal site including the City of Santa Maria while continuously evaluating their ability to later accept the lagoon water. Ultimately, Cal Poly was able to resolve the issue. GOVERNMENT AGENCY An isolated challenge between the EOC and the County of San Luis Obispo was related to local homeless shelter overflow. The EOC requested assistance with sheltering these individuals as traditional Red Cross Evacuation Shelters are not generally able to accept transient populations who have not been evacuated due to the incident. Ultimately a solution was found by transporting shelter overflow individuals to other County homeless shelters run by non-profit organizations. While a solution to was identified and successfully implemented, a lack of issue ownership of the issue resulted in unnecessary delays. PRIVATE The ability of local private organizations to withstand and recover from natural disasters is vital to the local economy and vitality of the city. One of the most robust hazard mitigation programs in place is the floodgate program for businesses in flood zones. While many businesses successfully deployed floodgates, the deployment was not universal and if the flooding were more widespread, many local businesses that did not deploy floodgates would have likely sustained more damage than businesses that did. Because the successful deployment of floodgates requires a partnership between the city and private businesses, an improved coordinated effort should yield higher deployment rates. The effort will likely require communication, inspections, information and training resources, maintenance and accountability of the gates and installation sites, and reliable deployment plans. NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGAN IZATIONS / NON -PROFITS Non-governmental organizations and non-profits played a major role in aiding the unhoused community members in San Luis Obispo. Because a significant number of this population group reside in creek areas, many were displaced by the flood waters and sought shelter at the CAPSLO’s 40 Prado Homeless Shelter Facility. Because of the influx in demand, the facility quickly ran out of space. To add to this challenge, Red Cross Evacuation Shelters, are not generally able to support this population group. This required the city to identify a place to shelter the 40 Prado overflow group and sought assistance from the County of San Luis Obispo. Fortunately, CAPSLO worked with other non-profit facilities in the county including 5Cities Homeless Coalition and El Camino Homeless Organization to temporarily house this group. Without these organizations’ facilities and willingness to assist, the city would have been met with a significant challenge in meeting the needs of this group. Separately, the city requested through Country OES to activate an evacuation shelter due to approximately 100 local evacuees from the storm. Red Cross initially experienced challenges establishing a shelter on January 9. During “blue sky” conditions, the Central Coast Red Cross establishes pre-existing agreements with shelter sites throughout the County. While many of these agreements were in place Page 249 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 20 of 31 locally, Red Cross struggled to identify a facility that was willing to honor the agreement. Additionally, Red Cross has experienced a significant drop in volunteer numbers organization-wide, reducing the staffing available to stand up a shelter. Eventually Red Cross was able to open an evacuation shelter at 4:30 PM on January 9 at the Church of the Nazarene, which housed approximately 10 individuals overnight. The shelter was closed the next day due to improved storm conditions, low census numbers, the lifting of a local shelter-in-place, and the cancellation of flash flood warnings. The challenge of activating a shelter persists and will require further coordination between the city, County OES, and Red Cross to address. RELEVENT PLANS EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLAN (EOP) The Adverse Weather Annex guides when to activate the EOP and EOC, including the EOC location and activation level provides a structure for situation reporting and department responsibilities, communication considerations, and resources. One section of the annex that was not utilized was the “Situation Reporting Zones” which provides a written description of four pre-identified zones in the city. It would be beneficial to update the written zones with a map and ensure the map and zones are aligned with the Public Works Storm Response Plan zones and other public safety response zones. The City’s Recovery Plan is a robust document that provides direction on short-term and long-term recovery activities and operations to improve the City’s ability to manage the impacts of an emergency. The plan also outlines department roles and responsibilities. A particularly useful portion of the plan includes different state and federal recovery assistance programs and the pre-requisites for each program to be activated, or available. It also provides details of the assistance pro grams including cost share requirements, implementation criteria and helped identify the possible assistance of private landowners through the Emergency Watershed Program under the Natural Resource Conservation Service. Detailed information on the FEMA Public Assistance Program was also useful outlining the different categories, program eligibility, procurement processes, and closeout. Finally, the plan includes specific resources such as a Recovery Unit Leader checklist and damage estimate and assessment worksheets. Staff identified some inconsistencies with these worksheet titles and FEMA terminology. An update to these document titles along with the details collected by County OES will improve the usefulness of these resources. Due to the complexities of debris management after a natural disaster, staff created a specific Debris Management Plan within the EOP to help City staff maximize cost recovery eligibility within the California Disaster Assistance Act (CDAA) and Federal programs including FEMA Public Assistance. This plan provides significant guidance on the activities that can and should be taken while removing debris from various locations including roads, buildings, natural streams, and private property. While the Plan provides guidance, the lack of plan familiarity from Public Works staff led to confusion during the early days of debris removal activities, specifically the scope of work and potential public assistance eligibility. Additional confusion was encountered when it became difficult to define what may meet an “immediate threat to life and health” for debris within waterways. Staff found several FEMA public assistance guidance documents and appeal decisions that used a 5-year rain event as the threshold for the debris to cause a threat to life and health. This information was shared with the staff managing the debris removal; Page 250 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 21 of 31 however, it would be beneficial to provide this guidance within the plan. It would also be beneficial to have established routine debris management training for public works and Utilities Staff who manage debris and waste post-natural disasters. PUBLIC WORKS STORM AND FLOOD RESPONSE PLAN The Public Works Storm and Flood Response plan was most recently revised in March 2018 but has not undergone a comprehensive update since at least 2009. Due to its extended age, Public Works staff identified the need to conduct a comprehensive update and had been scoping out a process to complete this update before the incident period. The current plan was originally developed by a staff member that had not experienced significant flood events and subsequently lacks key components. Additionally, the plan was not updated when the city completed a comprehensive update to the EOP in 2020 and contains incongruencies. For example, a level 1 activation in the EOC is the largest response, while level 5 is the largest response in the Storm and Flood Response Plan. Staff are planning to utilize many lessons learned from this incident to inform a comprehensive update scheduled to take place mid-late 2023 and will work with city emergency management to ensure the plan is aligned with the EOP. PUBLIC WORKS INCIDENT ACTIO N PLANS (IAP) The Public Works leadership team developed Incident Actions Plans (IAP) for each major storm event during the incident period. The IAPs provide essential elements of information for the DOC to operate including objectives, weather event forecasts and anticipated impacts, operational deployment structure based on observed storm impacts, and communication resources including contact information and public information news releases, and social media copy. There is an opportunity to have the DOC utilize the formatting and standard forms of the EOC action plan. These are well-vetted ICS forms and documents and have continually shown success in providing structure to action plans. This transition will require training, however once initial draft action plans are developed, they can be easily duplicated for future events. Additionally, it will improve familiarity with staff that cross between the EOC and DOC. EOC ACTION PLANS EOC staff successfully generated six EOC Action Plans during the incident period. These plans were essential to ensuring roles, responsibilities, and work efforts were known to EOC staff so they can meet the management objectives established by the Emergency Services Director. One of the challenges of the development of the modified ICS 202 is that the form was widely used by existing staff during COVID-19 which was a unique incident with extended operational periods and many ongoing work efforts. This experience has led to an overly detailed 202 form which may be easily managed during initial operational periods but becomes difficult to manage once the incident transitions away from the initial response. Many activities identified within the EOC Action Plan spanned beyond operational periods, and the list of activities was often unachievable within the operational period. The modified ICS 202 should be explored as more of a working document outside of the EOC Action Plan to help improve efficiencies and ease the administrative management of this plan. Leveraging ICS 204 forms should help with this transition. Page 251 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 22 of 31 Additionally, the number of management objectives began to grow to an unmanageable level due to the specificity of the objectives. Many of the assigned management objectives could have been condensed into broader objectives. Limited management object changes should occur from one operational period to another without a significant change in incident status. TRAINING As mentioned in the EOC section above, previous training was key to the success in responding to and managing the incident. The training provided strong familiarity with both the response and recovery aspects of the storms. In the two years leading up to the incident period, the city held the following trainings: • 2 EOC functional exercises (one covering a flood event, another covering a downed commercial passenger aircraft) • 3 EOC position-specific courses • 1 general-employee EOC course • 1 elected official’s course • A 4-day FEMA Emergency Management Institute’s Community-Specific Integrated Emergency Management Course, which included: o Multiple PowerPoint-led training sessions o 2 EOC tabletop exercises (one involving an earthquake recovery, another involving a passenger train derailment) While these training opportunities provided a strong foundation for staff to respond to this incident, several future training opportunities have been identified to both enhance existing capabilities and improved response. This includes Disaster Service Worker training for all employees to improve employee expectations and home preparedness when those employees are required to work during times of a locally proclaimed emergency or state of emergency. Additionally, specific sections within the EOC have expressed a desire to have more focused training within their section of the EOC outside of the larger EOC group. Finally, field-level training was identified including regular “tailgate” training and incorporating emergency documentation requirements that are not utilized during day-to-day operations. Another area in which training will likely improve response is the incorporation of DOC training into EOC training opportunities or holding DOC exercises outside of EOC drills. Finally, significant feedback was received to improve the depth of positions which will require additional staff to participate in training opportunities including shadowing opportunities. RECOVERY Initially, a Public Works employee was designated to lead the recovery unit and filled that role during the first two weeks of the incident and primarily oversaw the initial damage estimate work effort. Once that was concluded, the management of the Recovery transitioned to the Assistant City Manager as the Recover Branch Director and the Emergency Manager as the Deputy Director, and a Recovery Branch was formalized with an established organizational structure. This organizational transition was more in-line Page 252 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 23 of 31 with the City EOP, which designates the Assistant City Manager as the primary position to lead the City’s recovery efforts. Due to the complexities of the recovery effort and the needed support from both the Finance and Public Works Departments, the Recovery Branch developed a Recovery Action Plan to replace the EOC Action Plan. This organization remained in place for several months until the work became operationalized, and the FEMA Public Assistance Process was initiated and well-established. The earlier establishment of this structure would have likely resulted in a more organized response and support of the departments involved in Recovery. Additionally, as mentioned previously prior training with the City’s Recovery and Debris Management Plan would have improved staff’s clarity on recommended actions to take, and documentation to collect. One of the greatest assets put in place during recovery was the use of a mobile “field maps” application to document and track damaged locations. This data was easily pulled into an Excel format, allowing an initial damage estimate to be comprehensively made, continuously updated for project tracking, and also fed into a dashboard showing estimated damages and damaged site locations. The early activation of this resource was invaluable to staff. Some challenges that did exist with this process were the high number of staff inputting data and inconsistencies between damage estimates and the level of detail. Previous training and pre-identified staff would help resolve this. Additionally, earlier assessment from more qualified staff to estimate damage totals would have likely resulted in more accurate damage estimate numbers earlier on during the recovery process. This was partially delayed by the higher creek levels that hid the full extent of the damage and the high demand for engineering staff to address emergency repairs. INCIDENT -SPECIFIC ACTIONS While this report is not intended to address the variety of operational response actions and tactics, several notable items should be considered for future incidents. Temporary Refuge Areas (TRA): Fire staff (Battalion Chiefs and Emergency Manager) quickly identified two locations as temporary refuge sites until the hazard was mitigated, or until an evacuation shelter was established. These sites were located in the southern and northern portions of the city (Marigold Shopping Center and Foothill Plaza). One Fire Inspector was sent to each location to help liaison with evacuees however no evacuees were identified at these temporary sites. The lack of evacuees may have been due to insufficient communications, lag-time of establishing and communicating the zones from the actual evacuations, difficulty navigating City streets to the locations due to roadway flooding, or the lack of temporary sheltering needs around the impacted areas. Staff noted that other areas of the city would be well served for a TRA including central and eastern portions of the city. Pro-Active Marsh Street Closure: The proactive closure of the Marsh St. / Highway 101 on and off ramps to allow for the closure of the Marsh St. Bridge at South Higuera was seen as a success and operationalized since the January 14 event. Per public works leadership staff, this tactic had been previously identified, but the speed at which the January 9 storm materialized prevented public works from implementing this tactic due to the dangerous flood waters moving across the bridge. The January 14 and subsequent storms Page 253 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 24 of 31 did not generate as large of an impact as January 9 and so it is difficult to assess the effect the tactic would have had the morning of January 9. Regardless, there seemed to be enough benefit to continue making this an operational response option to adverse weather conditions. It would be recommended to explore trigger points for making this proactive step to avoid missing the opportunity to implement this flood reduction tactic prior to flooding across the roadway. Sandbag fill locations: The City maintains four sandbag locations throughout the city, the Corp Yard at 25 Prado Rd., Laguna Lake Golf Course at 11175 Los Osos Valley Rd., Santa Rosa Park at 190 Santa Rosa St. and Sinsheimer Park at 900 Southwood Dr which are activated at certain forecasted rain amounts. These locations remained stocked with sand throughout the incident, however, access became a challenge at Prado Rd on January 9 due to flooding. While sand remained sufficient, the City has not historically provided sandbags at the fill locations but alternatively provide a list of local vendors that sell the bags. On January 9 these vendors saw a sudden surge in demand for sandbags and ran out of inventory. To help improve access to sandbags, it would be recommended to explore (1) providing sandbags at the fill locations to ensure adequate supply, and (2) providing staffing or coordinating volunteer efforts to assist with filling sandbags to improve accessibility to those with access, disability, or functional needs to help improve the likelihood these community members can secure and deploy sandbags. Homeless encampment surveys: The proactive notification and outreach to the homeless populations living in and near the creek was seen as a huge success due to the lack of any reported injuries, or rescues among this group who was in the direct path of the dangerous flooding that occurred during the incident period. This work was accomplished by a large team of staff members including the Community Action Team (CAT), Mobile Crisis Unit, Ranger Staff, Police, and Fire staff. While staff observed some groups as being resistant to moving, most individuals and groups moved to higher ground before the stor ms. Prior to the January 5 storm staff explored conducting an actual evacuation of the areas, or instead taking the outreach approach. The outreach model was ultimately selected due to the anticipated low evacuation participation rate and the lack of a realistic housing plan to support the group. This decision is viewed as a success. It may be beneficial to explore a written and exercised outreach and evacuation plan for the unhoused community to formalize procedures during emergency events including post-incident surveys. Police staff did conduct several creek surveys after the storms; however, they were done pro-actively and independently, rather than part of a pre-identified plan.

APPLICATION OF THE STANDARDIZED EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (SEMS) & NATIONAL INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (NIMS) CALIFORNIA STANDARDIZED EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (SEMS) The California Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) is the State’s emergency response system and provides the structure for the response phase of emergency management. The system brings together the different elements of the State’s emergency response community into a single integrated and standardized system including the Incident Command System (ICS), Multi/Inter-agency coordination, Mutual Aid, and the Operational Area Concept. At its heart, SEMS helps ensure incidents start and end locally. Per the California Emergency Services Act 2021 (ESA) local government agencies must use SEMS in order to be eligible for any reimbursement of response-related costs under California’s disaster assistance programs. During the incident period, the city utilized many pre-established SEMS elements. ICS was used at the incident level by response staff up to the Emergency Operations Structure. ICS allowed the city staff to manage the incident by objectives and included the development of Incident Actions Plans at the field level and EOC Action Plans at the EOC level. The EOC utilized the Operational Area Concept and multi/inter-agency coordination to support incident needs that the city lacked the resources to accomplish on its own. The City participated in Operational Area Coordination calls to provide County OES with conditions, actions, and needs, communicated the activation of the EOC and proclamation of a local emergency on January 9, and continued to remain in direct contact throughout the incident through established communication methods. Ultimately neither fire nor police mutual assistance was requested by the city, however sheltering support requests were made to the Operational Area Coordinator, County OES. The City Public Information Officer also coordinated with the County’s EOC PIO to help ensure unified messaging and critical information was shared appropriately. City staff also ran all information and details that needed to be provided to Cal OES and FEMA for recovery purposes through the Operational Area Coordinator, who ultimately transmitted the details up the SEMS structure to OES Region who passed it along to the State. Finally, the City’s current 2022 Emergency Operations Plan is SEMS compliant and was used to manage operational response to the incident. To improve city staff member familiarity with SEMS, city emergency management is rolling out a training requirement for all staff to complete G-606 “Standardized Emergency Management System Introduction”. All staff are expected to have this training completed prior to the end of the calendar year 2023. NATIONAL INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM Per the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) The National Incident Management System (NIMS) guides all levels of government, nongovernmental organizations, and the private sector to work together to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from incidents. NIMS provides stakeholders across the whole community with the shared vocabulary, systems, and processes to successfully deliver the capabilities described in the National Preparedness System. NIMS defines Page 255 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 26 of 31 operational systems that guide how personnel works together during incidents. Local, state, territorial, and tribal nation jurisdictions are required to adopt NIMS to receive federal preparedness grants. The city has adopted NIMS throughout the organization and the City Emergency Operations Plan is an extension of the State Emergency Plan and is written to be NIMS compliant and the National Response Framework. Additionally, the city requires all staff members to complete basic level ICS and NIMS training to ensure all first responders can respond and act in accordance with NIMS during emergencies. By law, all City employees are emergency responders during times of local emergency, state of emergency, or wartime. Depending on the rank of the employees the training includes ICS 100 “Introduction to the Incident Command System”, ICS 200 “Basic Incident Command System for Initial Response”, IS 700 “An Introduction to the National Incident Management System”, IS 800 “National Response Framework, An Introduction” and IS-908 “Emergency Management for Senior Officials”. At a minimum, all staff must complete ICS-100 and IS-700. Page 256 of 501 City of San Luis Obispo 2022-23 Storms After-Action Report & Post-Incident Improvement Plan Page 27 of 31 VI. REPORT CONCLUSION The City of San Luis Obispo faced a challenging natural disaster event during the incident period. The resulting impacts challenged the organization, its staff, and community members in ways the city has not experienced in decades. The resulting whole community response to meet the needs of the incident was nothing short of impressive. This includes the city, governmental and non-governmental partners, the private business community, educational institutions, and grassroots volunteer groups. Despite many successes experienced by all levels of the community, there were many areas of improvement that will make future responses more effective. This report hopes to formalize these areas, especially due to the low frequency that these events do occur. An important note is that the value of this report diminishes as time passes if staff does not carry out, institutionalize, and share the identified improvements and lessons learned with future staff members. This report should be incorporated into all succession planning that occurs at the emergency management level of the city and regular training should take place to ensure the items outlined in this report and subsequent improvement plan are institutionalized moving forward.

P OST -I NCIDENT IMPROVEMENT P LAN The goal of the after-action report is to identify actions to improve future responses and EOC activations which will allow the city to manage major emergencies and disasters more effectively while also providing essential services. The following table outlines the identified improvement items during the after-action review and reporting process. This improvement plan is intended to assist city emergency management in planning, executing, and tracking action items moving forward. It is important to identify the priority level, and resources needed to accomplish each action item to allow staff to provide a realistic framework to achieve the work effort. The priority levels were defined as follows: • High: Action item addresses an issue that either hampered response during the incident period, has a high likelihood of hampering future response, or addresses a safety issue. • Medium: Action item would provide measurable improvement for future responses. • Low: Action item would assist in future responses, or improve operational efficiencies, however lack of action would not likely hamper or reduce response capabilities.

The Cultural Arts District Parking Structure (CADPS) will be located at the corner of Palm, Nipomo and Monterey streets and will an chor and support future development of the Cultural Arts District in the downtown. The City plans to issue bonds to finance costs of the acquisition, design, engineering, fabrication, construction, improvement and installation of the new structure. Page 263 of 501 Item 6b In late July, the City received construction bids, with the low bid coming in at $41.1 million dollars, approximately $3.5 million below the engineer’s estimate. In addition to financing construction of the CADPS, staff is also recommending a potential refinan cing of the Series 2012 bonds in order to generate positive net present value savings and release the Damon Garcia Sports Fields which is the leased asset that currently secures those bonds. POLICY CONTEXT The recommended action is consistent with the City’s Capital Financing and Debt Management policy which requires that the City’s debt management practices are “fiscally prudent, consistent with State and Federal law, and reflective of the most opportune financing strategies to deliver on the needs and goals of the community and the City organization.” In accordance with this policy, the City’s general purpose debt capacity cannot exceed 15% of General Fund revenues, and direct debt will not exceed 2% of assessed valuations, and no more than 60% of capital improvement outlays will be funded from long-term debt. Debt should only be incurred for one -time capital expenditures and not for on-going operations. Borrowing for one-time capital expenditures allows for the cost of the project to be spread over the useful life of the asset and results in the cost being paid by future beneficiaries as well as current taxpayers. As noted, the City’s debt management policy sets a debt limit of 2% of assessed valuation, which equals $235.4 million for Fiscal Year 2022-23. Including this debt issuance, the City’s General Fund long-term debt will be approximately $67.5 million, or 0.006% of assessed valuation, well below the established debt limit. DISCUSSION Background Since 2003, the City has been planning for a fourth parking structure to fit the current and future needs of the community and downtown. Total future investments in the downtown constitute nearly $250 million. This structure will be sited on Parking Lot 14, which is located at the corner of Palm, Nipomo, and Monterey streets. The structure is known the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure (CADPS) due to its proximity to the History Museum, SLO Museum of Art, and the SLO Children’s Museu m, as well as the future site for the SLO Repertory Theater that will abut the structure The Cultural Arts District Parking Structure will be a 163,000 square foot, five -story cast- in-place concrete structure that will provide the community with 397 new pa rking spaces, 41 of which will have electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. Page 264 of 501 Item 6b Analysis The proposed transaction (the “2023 Bonds”) will be issued to fund construction of the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure. In addition, it is expected that the 2023 Bonds will fully refund the outstanding San Luis Obispo Capital Improvement Board’s Series 2012 Refunding Lease Revenue Bonds (the “2012 Bonds”), subject to market conditions1. The 2012 Bonds are currently callable. The 2023 Bonds will be lease reven ue bonds issued by the San Luis Obispo Public Financing Authority (the “PFA”). The City will lease to the PFA its existing Marsh Street Parking Structure, located at 871 Marsh Street. The PFA will then lease the property back to the City in exchange for rental payments. The use of an existing structure as the leased asset for the 2023 Bonds that will fund the construction of the new facility, is referred to as an “asset transfer” and allows the City to avoid borrowing bond interest during the construction period, thus reducing the size of the borrowing. The City’s rental payments to the PFA will be assigned to the trustee of the 2023 Bonds and will be used to make the bond payments. This legal structure is the same as that of the City’s most recent Lease Revenue Bond financing in 2018, and the same as that of the 2012 Bonds, but for the Public Financing Authority serving in the role held by the Capital Improvement Board on the 2012 Bonds. The Resolution will authorize staff to proceed with the transaction funding the construction of the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure provided certain parameters are met. The par amount will not exceed $50,000,000, the true interest cost will not exceed 5.25%, and the underwriter’s discount will not exceed 4% of the par amount of the bonds. The City received construction bids in late July, with the low bid coming in approximately $3.5 million below the engineer’s estimate. The difference between the engineer’s estimated amount and the construction bid results is approximately $210,000 of annual debt service savings for the City. The table below provides an estimated budget for remaining project costs, provided by Public Works: Cultural Arts District Parking Structure - Phase 2, Specification No. 90435 ID Estimated Construction Costs 1 Construction Bid* $41,070,044 2 Construction Contingencies (15%) $6,160,507 3 Total Construction Bid + Contingency $47,230,551 4 Estimated Soft Costs 5 Final Design Administration, Permitting, and Construction Support $150,550 6 Construction Management/Inspection/Testing - Phase 2 $3,925,894 7 10% Design and Construction Management Contingencies $407,644 8 Easements - allowance $50,000 1 Meaning, if the City can realize debt service savings by consolidating the 2012 issuance and further combine pledged leased assets. Page 265 of 501 Item 6b 9 Phase 1A/1B Construction Contingencies $200,000 10 PG&E/Telecom Phase 2 Facility Relocations $250,000 11 Transactional Costs $480,000 12 Printing & Advertising $25,000 13 Soil Abatement (estimate) $785,565 14 Total Project Estimate $53,505,204 15 Budget 16 Current Available Project Budget $4,923,264 17 Additional Funding on 7/1/2024 (General Fund) $1,500,000 18 Additional Funding on 7/1/2025 (General Fund) $490,000 19 Phase 2 Debt Financing $47,000,000 20 Total Project Budget $53,913,264 21 Total Project Cost $53,505,204 22 Remaining Budget $408,061 In addition, staff is recommending that the refinancing of the Series 2012 bonds be authorized so long as it generates positive net present value savings. The City’s Debt Management Policy states that refinancings for economic savings should meet a minimum threshold of 5% net present value savings, except in certain circumstances. However, in this instance, the primary benefit of refinancing the 2012 Bonds is not economic savings, but to enable the release of the leased asset that currently secures them, the Damon Garcia Sports Fields. The 2012 Bonds are currently outstanding in the amount of $2,415,000, while the estimated value of the Damon Garcia Sports Fields is in excess of $10 million. The Resolutions (Attachments A and B) also approve the following transaction documents in substantially final forms2: 1. Ground Lease (Attachment C): Leases the properties from the PFA back to the City. 2. Lease Agreement (Attachment D): Leases certain property from the City to the PFA. 3. Indenture (Attachment E): Provides detailed information on terms, clauses and covenants for purposes of the Trustee’s duties and responsibilities to administer the payment of bonds and management of funds. 4. Bond Purchase Agreement (Attachment F): Details terms of the transaction between the City, PFA, and underwriter. 5. Preliminary Official Statement (Attachment G): Primary disclosure document used to market the 2023 Bonds to investors. The Continuing Disclosure Certificate is included in this document as Appendix E and designates the City’s obligations to disclose financial information to bond investors during the period of lease or financing period. 2 The authorized officers of the City and Financing Authority can finalize documents as long as any changes do not otherwise change the terms or substantially affect the structure of the proposed financing. Page 266 of 501 Item 6b The financing team will be composed of several firms. PFM Financial Advisors LLC (PFM) will serve as municipal advisor. Raymond James & Associates, Inc. will serve as underwriter. Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP will serve as bond and disclosure counsel. U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association is the trustee for the 2012 Bonds and will serve as trustee for the 2023 Bonds. S&P Global Ratings will provide a bond rating, which is expected to be received by August 14th. The City may also engage a financial printer, escrow agent, escrow verification agent, title insurance provider, and other provide rs as needed in order to process and market the proposed bond sale. Sarah Hollenbeck, the City’s Municipal Advisor from PFM Financial Advisors LLP and Trish Eichar, the Bond Counsel for this issuance form Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP will participate remotely in the August 15th presentation. Next Steps Upon Council’s approval, staff and the financing team will proceed to execute a bond transaction that meets the parameters defined in the Resolution. The 2023 Bonds are currently expected to be priced the week of August 21st, with closing and delivery of funds the week of September 11th, prior to the award of the construction contract for the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure on September 19th. Details of pricing and the final par amount for each tranche (i.e., term of bonds, 0-10, 10-20, 20-30 years) shall be reported at the September 19th meeting. As noted above, in addition to providing funding for the construction of the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure, the refunding portion of the 2023 Bonds will enable the City to unencumber the leased assets that are currently pledged to the 2012 Bonds. In particular, the refinancing will enable the City to release the Damon Garcia Sports Fields from the pledge associated with the 2012 Bonds, thus providing the City greater flexibility for future financings related to its long-term capital plans. Previous Council or Advisory Body Action The Cultural Arts District Parking Structure project has been included in the City’s Capital Improvement Plan for several years, and Council has previously appropriated funding to this project, with adoption of both the 2021-23 and 2023-25 Financial Plans. Public Engagement Representatives from Downtown SLO, San Luis Obispo Museum of Art, and San Luis Obispo Repertory Theatre have been invited to participate in the City’s Parking Operations Steering Committee meetings for the last several months. In compliance with Government Code Section 6586.5, a legal notice was published in the New Times five (5) days prior to the public hearing. Members of the general public will have the opportunity to provide comment on this item before or during the City Council meeting on August 15th. CONCURRENCE The Public Works Department is the lead on the construction of the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure and concurs with the recommendations outlined in this item, as the ability to obtain debt financing is critical in order to proceed with vertical co nstruction of the structure. Page 267 of 501 Item 6b ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The California Environmental Quality Act does not apply to the recommended action in this report, because the action does not constitute a “Project” under CEQA Guidelines Sec. 15378. FISCAL IMPACT Budgeted: Yes Budget Year: 2023-24 Funding Identified: Yes Fiscal Analysis: Funding Sources Total Budget Available Current Funding Request Remaining Balance Annual Ongoing Cost General Fund $ $ $ $ State Federal Fees Other: Lease Revenue Bond $50,000,000 $50,000,000 $0 $0 Total $50,000,000* $50,000,000 $0 $0 * Staff is seeking authorization to issue bonds in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $50,000,000, to include both the financing for the CADPS as well as the refunding of the 2012 Series bonds. The new money component of the 2023 Bonds is expect ed to result in annual debt service of $2,860,866. The refunding component is currently expected to result in approximately $28,499 of net present value debt service savings, or 1.18% of refunded par, based on market conditions as of August 2nd.

Do not adopt the proposed Resolutions. The City Council could choose not to adopt the proposed resolutions, in which case the bonds will not be issued. In this case, the project will not move forward without the bonded debt that is required to fund construction of the project and the 2012 Bonds will not be refinanced , leaving the Damon Garcia Sports Fields subject to encumbrance. 2.

(e) If on the Scheduled Termination Date, the Rental Payments payable hereunder shall have been abated at any time and for any reason, then the term of this Lease Agreement shall be extended until the date upon which all such Rental Payments shall have been paid in full, except that the term of this Lease Agreement shall in no event be extended more than ten years beyond the Scheduled Termination Date. (f) Upon the termination of the term of this Lease Agreement (other than as provided in Section 7.01 hereof), and the first date upon which the Bonds are no longer Outstanding, all right, title and interest in and to the Property shall vest in the City. Upon any such termination or expiration, the Authority and the Trustee shall execute such conveyances, deeds and other documents as may be necessary to effect such vesting of record. Page 306 of 501 6 4142-7460-2566.8 ARTICLE III RENTAL PAYMENTS Rental Payments. (a) Rental Payments, consisting of Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments, shall be paid by the City to the Authority for and in consideration of the right to use and occupy the Property and in consideration of the continued right to the quiet use and enjoyment thereof during each Rental Period for which such Rental Payments are to be paid. (b) The obligation of the City to make the Rental Payments, including the Base Rental Payments, does not constitute a debt of the City or of the State or of any political subdivision thereof within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limit or restriction, and does not constitute an obligation for which the City or the State is obligated to levy or pledge any form of taxation or for which the City or the State has levied or pledged any form of taxation. (c) If the term of this Lease Agreement shall have been extended pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof, the obligation of the City to pay Rental Payments shall continue to and including the Base Rental Deposit Date preceding the date of termination of this Lease Agreement, as so extended. Base Rental Payments. (a) The City, subject to the provisions of Section 3.07 hereof, shall pay Base Rental Payments to the Authority. The Base Rental Payments shall be due and payable no later than the fifth Business Day next preceding each Interest Payment Date (the “Base Rental Deposit Date”) on which such Base Rental Payment is due in an amount equal to the principal, if any, of and interest on the Bonds due and payable on such Interest Payment Date, including principal due and payable by reason of mandatory sinking fund redemption of the Bonds. (b) If the term of this Lease Agreement shall have been extended pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof, the Base Rental Payments shall be established so that the Base Rental Payment payable on each Base Rental Deposit Date after the Scheduled Termination Date shall be equal to the principal, if any, of and interest on the Bonds remaining due and payable on such Base Rental Deposit Date; provided, however, that the Rental Payments payable in any Rental Period shall not exceed the annual fair rental value of the Property. Additional Rental Payments. (a) The City shall also pay, as Additional Rental Payments, such amounts as shall be required for the payment of the following: (i) all taxes and assessments of any type or nature charged to the Authority or the City or affecting the Property or the respective interests or estates of the Authority or the City therein; (ii) insurance premiums for all insurance required pursuant to Article V hereof; and (iii) all other payments not constituting Base Rental Payments required to be paid by the City pursuant to the provisions of this Lease Agreement. (b) Amounts constituting Additional Rental Payments payable hereunder shall be paid by the City directly to the person or persons to whom such amounts shall be payable. The City shall pay all such amounts when due or at such later time as such amounts may be paid without penalty or, in any other case, within 60 days after notice in writing from the Trustee to the City stating the amount of Additional Rental Payments then due and payable and the purpose thereof. Page 307 of 501 7 4142-7460-2566.8 Fair Rental Value. The parties hereto have agreed and determined that the Fair Rental Value of the Property is not less than $[RENTAL VALUE] as of the Closing Date. In making such determinations of Fair Rental Value, consideration has been given to the uses and purposes that may be served by the Property and the benefits therefrom that will accrue to the City and the general public. Payments of the Rental Payments for the Property during each Rental Period shall constitute the total rental for said Rental Period. Payment Provisions. Each installment of Base Rental Payments payable hereunder shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America to or upon the order of the Authority at the Principal Office of the Trustee, or such other place or entity as the Authority shall designate. Each Base Rental Payment shall be deposited with the Trustee no later than the Base Rental Deposit Date preceding the Interest Payment Date on which such Base Rental Payment is due. Any Base Rental Payment that shall not be paid by the City when due and payable under the terms of this Lease Agreement shall bear interest from the date when the same is due hereunder until the same shall be paid a rate equal to the highest rate of interest on any of the Outstanding Bonds. Notwithstanding any dispute between the Authority and the City, the City shall make all Rental Payments when due without deduction or offset of any kind and shall not withhold any Rental Payments pending the final resolution of such dispute. In the event of a determination that the City was not liable for said Rental Payments or any portion thereof, said payments or excess of payments, as the case may be, shall be credited against subsequent Rental Payments due hereunder or refunded at the time of such determination. Appropriations Covenant. The City shall take such action as may be necessary to include all Rental Payments due hereunder as a separate line item in its annual budgets and to make necessary annual appropriations for all such Rental Payments. The covenants on the part of the City herein contained shall be deemed to be and shall be construed to be duties imposed by law and it shall be the duty of each and every public official of the City to take such action and do such things as are required by law in the performance of the official duty of such officials to enable the City to carry out and perform the covenants and agreements in this Lease Agreement agreed to be carried out and performed by the City. Rental Abatement. (a) Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Section, during any period in which, by reason of material damage to, or destruction or condemnation of, the Property, or any defect in title to the Property, there is substantial interference with the City’s right to use and occupy any portion of the Property, Rental Payments shall be abated proportionately, and the City waives the benefits of California Civil Code Sections 1932(1), 1932(2) and 1933(4) and any and all other rights to terminate this Lease Agreement by virtue of any such interference, and this Lease Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. The City and the Authority shall, in a reasonable manner and in good faith, determine the amount of such abatement; provided, however, that the Rental Payments due for any Rental Period shall not exceed the annual fair rental value of that portion of the Property available for use and occupancy by the City during such Rental Period. The City and the Authority shall provide the Trustee with a certificate setting forth the amount of abatement and the basis therefor. Such abatement shall continue for the period commencing with the date of interference resulting from such damage, destruction, condemnation or title defect and, with respect to damage to or destruction of the Property, ending with the substantial completion of the work of repair or replacement of the Property, or the portion thereof so damaged or destroyed. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that Net Proceeds of rental interruption insurance are available for the payment of Rental Payments, Rental Payments shall not be abated as provided in subsection (a) of this Section but, rather, shall be payable by the City as a special obligation payable solely from such Net Proceeds. Page 308 of 501 8 4142-7460-2566.8 Prepayment. (a) The City may cause all or a portion of the Bonds to be optionally redeemed pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Indenture by prepaying on any date on or after December 1, ____, all or a portion of the Base Rental Payments from any source of available funds, which prepayment shall be accomplished by the City’s paying an amount sufficient to cause such Bonds to be redeemed pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Indenture on such prepayment date. (b) The City may prepay, from any source of available funds, all or any portion of the Base Rental Payments by depositing with the Trustee moneys or securities as provided, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth, in Article X of the Indenture sufficient to make such Base Rental Payments when due or to make such Base Rental payments through a specified date on which the City has a right to prepay such Base Rental Payments pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section, and to prepay such Base Rental Payments on such prepayment date, at a prepayment price determined in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section. (c) If less than all of the Base Rental Payments are prepaid pursuant to this Section then, as of the date of such prepayment pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section, or the date of a deposit pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section, the principal and interest components of the Base Rental Payments shall be recalculated in order to take such prepayment into account. The City agrees that if, following a partial prepayment of Base Rental Payments, the Property is damaged or destroyed or taken by eminent domain, or a defect in title to the Property is discovered, the City shall not be entitled to, and by such prepayment waives the right of, abatement of such prepaid Base Rental Payments and the City shall not be entitled to any reimbursement of such Base Rental Payments. (d) If all of the Base Rental Payments are prepaid in accordance with the provisions of this Lease Agreement then, as of the date of such prepayment pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section, or deposit pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section, the term of this Lease Agreement shall be terminated. (e) Before making any prepayment pursuant to this Article, the City shall give written notice to the Authority and the Trustee specifying the date on which the prepayment will be made, which date shall be not less than 45 days prior to the prepayment date, unless such notice shall be waived by the Authority and the Trustee. ARTICLE IV QUIET ENJOYMENT; MAINTENANCE; ALTERATIONS; LIENS Quiet Enjoyment. The Authority hereby covenants and agrees that it will not take any action to prevent the City, so long as the City is keeping and performing the covenants and agreements herein contained, from having quiet and peaceable possession and enjoyment of the Property during the term hereof. Net-Net-Net Lease. This Lease Agreement shall be deemed and construed to be a “net-net-net lease” and the City hereby agrees that the Rental Payments shall be an absolute net return to the Authority, free and clear of any expenses, charges or set-offs whatsoever and notwithstanding any dispute between the City and the Authority. Right of Entry. The Authority shall have the right to enter upon and to examine and inspect the Property during reasonable business hours (and in emergencies at all times) for any purpose connected with the Authority’s rights or obligations under this Lease Agreement, and for all other lawful purposes.

Subject to Section 4.07 hereof, the City and any sublessee shall, at its own expense, have the right to make additions, modifications and improvements to the Property. To the extent that the removal of such additions, modifications or improvements would not cause material damage to the Property, such additions, modifications and improvements shall remain the sole property of the City or such sublessee, and neither the Authority nor the Trustee shall have any interest therein. Such additions, modifications and improvements shall not in any way damage the Property or cause it to be used for purposes other than those authorized under the provisions of state and federal law; and the Property, upon completion of any additions, modifications and improvements made pursuant to this Section, shall be of a value that is at least equal to the value of the Property immediately prior to the making of such additions, modifications and improvements. Installation of City’s Equipment. The City and any sublessee may at any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion and at its own expense, install or permit to be installed items of equipment or other personal property in or upon the Property. All such items shall remain the sole property of the City or such sublessee, and neither the Authority nor the Trustee shall have any interest therein. The City or such sublessee may remove or modify such equipment or other personal property at any time, provided that such party shall repair and restore any and all damage to the Property resulting from the installation, modification or removal of any such items; and the Property, upon completion of any installations, modifications or removals made pursuant to this Section, shall be of a value that is at least equal to the value of the Property immediately prior to the making of such installations, modifications or removals. Nothing in this Lease Agreement shall prevent the City or any sublessee from purchasing items to be installed pursuant to this Section under a conditional sale or lease purchase contract, or subject to a vendor’s lien or security agreement as security for the unpaid portion of the purchase price thereof, provided that no such lien or security interest shall attach to any part of the Property. Mechanics’, Etc. Liens. In the event the City shall at any time during the term of this Lease Agreement cause any changes, alterations, additions, improvements, or other work to be done or performed or materials to be supplied, in or upon the Property, the City shall pay, when due, all sums of money that may become due for, or purporting to be for, any labor, services, materials, supplies or equipment furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for the City in, upon or about the Property and that may be secured by a mechanics’, materialmen’s or other lien against the Property or the Authority’s interest therein, and shall cause each such lien to be fully discharged and released at the time the performance of any obligation secured by any such lien matures or becomes due, except that, if the City desires to contest any such lien, it may do so as long as such contest is in good faith. If any such lien shall be reduced to final judgment and such judgment or such process as may be issued for the enforcement thereof is not promptly stayed, or if so stayed and said stay thereafter expires, the City shall forthwith pay and discharge said judgment. Other Liens. The City shall keep the Property and all parts thereof free from judgments and materialmen’s and mechanics’ liens and free from all claims, demands, encumbrances and other liens of whatever nature or character, and free from any claim or liability that materially impairs the City in conducting its business or utilizing the Property, and the Trustee at its option (after first giving the Page 310 of 501 10 4142-7460-2566.8 City ten days’ written notice to comply therewith and failure of the City to so comply within such ten-day period) may defend against any and all actions or proceedings, or may pay or compromise any claim or demand asserted in any such actions or proceedings; provided, however, that, in defending against any such actions or proceedings or in paying or compromising any such claims or demands, the Trustee shall not in any event be deemed to have waived or released the City from liability for or on account of any of its agreements and covenants contained herein, or from its obligation hereunder to perform such agreements and covenants. The Trustee shall have no liability with respect to any determination made in good faith to proceed or decline to defend, pay or compromise any such claim or demand.

The Net Proceeds of such rental interruption insurance shall be applied to the payment of Rental Payments during the period in which, as a result of the damage or destruction to the Property that resulted in the receipt of such Net Proceeds, there is substantial interference with the City’s right to the use or occupancy of the Property. The City’s obligations under this subsection may not be satisfied by self-insurance. (d) The insurance required by this Section other than self-insured as provided shall be provided by reputable insurance companies with claims paying abilities determined, in the reasonable opinion of the Page 311 of 501 11 4142-7460-2566.8 City’s professionally qualified risk manager or an independent insurance consultant, to be adequate for the purposes hereof.

ARTICLE VII LEASE DEFAULT EVENTS AND REMEDIES Lease Default Events and Remedies. (a) If (i) the City shall fail (A) to pay any Rental Payment payable hereunder when the same becomes due and payable, time being expressly declared to be of the essence in this Lease Agreement, or (B) to keep, observe or perform any other term, covenant or condition contained herein to be kept or performed by the City, if such failure shall have continued for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof, specifying such failure and requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the City by the Trustee, the Authority, or the Owners of not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding; provided, however, that if the failure stated in the notice can be corrected, but not within such 30 day period, such failure shall not constitute a Lease Default Event hereunder if corrective action is instituted by the City within such 30 day period and the City shall thereafter diligently and in good faith cure such failure in a reasonable period of time, provided, further, that, unless consented to by the Trustee, such period of time shall not exceed 180 days, (ii) except as otherwise provided in Article VIII hereof, the City’s interest in this Lease Agreement or any part thereof be assigned or transferred, either voluntarily or by operation of law or otherwise, (iii) the City or the Authority shall commence a voluntary case under Title 11 of the United States Code or any substitute or successor statute, or (iv) the City shall fail to observe and perform any of the covenants, agreements or conditions on its part in the Indenture contained, if such failure shall have continued for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof, specifying such failure and requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the City by the Trustee, the Authority or the Owners of not less than 5% of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding; provided, however, that if the failure stated in the notice can be corrected, but not within such 30 day period, such failure shall not constitute a Lease Default Event hereunder if corrective action is instituted by the City within such 30 day period and the City shall thereafter diligently and in good faith cure such failure in a reasonable period of time, provided, further, that, unless consented to by the Trustee, such period of time shall not exceed 180 days, such failure or event shall constitute a Lease Default Event under this Lease Agreement. (b) Upon the occurrence of any Lease Default Event hereunder, the Authority, in addition to all other rights and remedies it may have at law, shall have the option to do any of the following: (i) To terminate this Lease Agreement in the manner hereinafter provided on account of such Lease Default Event, notwithstanding any re-entry or re-letting of the Property as hereinafter provided for in subparagraph (ii) hereof, and to re-enter the Property and remove all persons in possession thereof and all personal property whatsoever situated upon the Property and place such personal property in storage in any warehouse or other suitable place, for the account of and at the expense of the City. In the event of such termination, the City agrees to surrender immediately possession of the Property, without let or hindrance, and to pay the Authority all Page 316 of 501 16 4142-7460-2566.8 damages recoverable at law that the Authority may incur by reason of such Lease Default Event, including, without limitation, any costs, loss or damage whatsoever arising out of, in connection with, or incident to any such re-entry upon the Property and removal and storage of such property by the Authority or its duly authorized agents in accordance with the provisions herein contained. Neither notice to pay Rental Payments or to deliver up possession of the Property given pursuant to law nor any entry or re-entry by the Authority nor any proceeding in unlawful detainer, or otherwise, brought by the Authority for the purpose of effecting such re-entry or obtaining possession of the Property nor the appointment of a receiver upon initiative of the Authority to protect the Authority’s interest under this Lease Agreement shall of itself operate to terminate this Lease Agreement, and no termination of this Lease Agreement on account of a Lease Default Event hereunder shall be or become effective by operation of law or acts of the parties hereto, or otherwise, unless and until the Authority shall have given written notice to the City of the election on the part of the Authority to terminate this Lease Agreement. The City covenants and agrees that no surrender of the Property or of the remainder of the term hereof or any termination of this Lease Agreement shall be valid in any manner or for any purpose whatsoever unless stated by the Authority by such written notice. (ii) Without terminating this Lease Agreement, (A) to collect each installment of Rental Payments as the same become due and enforce any other terms or provisions hereof to be kept or performed by the City, regardless of whether or not the City has abandoned the Property, or (B) to exercise any and all rights of entry and re-entry upon the Property. In the event the Authority does not elect to terminate this Lease Agreement in the manner provided for in subparagraph (i) hereof, the City shall remain liable and agrees to keep or perform all covenants and conditions herein contained to be kept or performed by the City and, if the Property is not re- let, to pay the full amount of the Rental Payments to the end of the term of this Lease Agreement or, in the event that the Property is re-let, to pay any deficiency in Rental Payments that results therefrom; and further agrees to pay said Rental Payments and/or Rental Payment deficiency punctually at the same time and in the same manner as hereinabove provided for the payment of Rental Payments hereunder, notwithstanding the fact that the Authority may have received in previous years or may receive thereafter in subsequent years Rental Payments in excess of the Rental Payments herein specified, and notwithstanding any entry or re-entry by the Authority or suit in unlawful detainer, or otherwise, brought by the Authority for the purpose of effecting such re-entry or obtaining possession of the Property. Should the Authority elect to re-enter as herein provided, the City hereby irrevocably appoints the Authority as the agent and attorney-in-fact of the City to re-let the Property, or any part thereof, from time to time, either in the Authority’s name or otherwise, upon such terms and conditions and for such use and period as the Authority may deem advisable and to remove all persons in possession thereof and all personal property whatsoever situated upon the Property and to place such personal property in storage in any warehouse or other suitable place, for the account of and at the expense of the City, and the City hereby indemnifies and agrees to save harmless the Authority from any costs, loss or damage whatsoever arising out of, in connection with, or incident to any such re-entry upon and re-letting of the Property and removal and storage of such property by the Authority or its duly authorized agents in accordance with the provisions herein contained. The City agrees that the terms of this Lease Agreement constitute full and sufficient notice of the right of the Authority to re-let the Property in the event of such re-entry without effecting a surrender of this Lease Agreement, and further agrees that no acts of the Authority in effecting such re-letting shall constitute a surrender or termination of this Lease Agreement irrespective of the use or the term for which such re-letting is made or the terms and conditions of such re-letting, or otherwise, but that, on the contrary, upon the occurrence of a Lease Default Event hereunder, the right to terminate this Lease Agreement shall vest in the Authority to be effected in the sole and exclusive manner provided for in subparagraph (i) hereof. The City further agrees to pay the Authority the cost of any alterations or Page 317 of 501 17 4142-7460-2566.8 additions to the Property necessary to place the Property in condition for re-letting immediately upon notice to the City of the completion and installation of such additions or alterations. The City hereby waives any and all claims for damages caused or that may be caused by the Authority in re-entering and taking possession of the Property as herein provided and all claims for damages that may result from the destruction of or injury to the Property and all claims for damages to or loss of any property belonging to the City, or any other person, that may be in or upon the Property. (c) In addition to the other remedies set forth in this Section, upon the occurrence of a Lease Default Event hereunder, the Authority shall be entitled to proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in the Authority by this Lease Agreement or by law. The provisions of this Lease Agreement and the duties of the City and of its board, officers or employees shall be enforceable by the Authority by mandamus or other appropriate suit, action or proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Authority shall have the right to bring the following actions: (i) Accounting. By action or suit in equity to require the City and its board, officers and employees and its assigns to account as the trustee of an express trust. (ii) Injunction. By action or suit in equity to enjoin any acts or things that may be unlawful or in violation of the rights of the Authority. (iii) Mandamus. By mandamus or other suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity to enforce the Authority’s rights against the City (and its board, officers and employees) and to compel the City to perform and carry out its duties and obligations under the law and its covenants and agreements with the City as provided herein. (d) Each and all of the remedies given to the Authority hereunder or by any law now or hereafter enacted are cumulative and the single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall not impair the right of the Authority to the further exercise thereof or the exercise of any or all other rights, powers or privileges. The term “re-let” or “re-letting” as used in this Section shall include, but not be limited to, re-letting by means of the operation by the Authority of the Property. If any statute or rule of law validly shall limit the remedies given to the Authority hereunder, the Authority nevertheless shall be entitled to whatever remedies are allowable under any statute or rule of law. (e) In the event the Authority shall prevail in any action brought to enforce any of the terms and provisions of this Lease Agreement, the City agrees to pay a reasonable amount as and for attorney’s fees incurred by the Authority in attempting to enforce any of the remedies available to the Authority hereunder. (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease Agreement, the Authority shall have no right upon a default by the City hereunder, a Lease Default Event hereunder or otherwise to accelerate Rental Payments. (g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the termination of this Lease Agreement by the Authority on account of a Lease Default Event hereunder shall not effect or result in a termination of the lease of the Property by the City to the Authority pursuant to the Ground Lease. Waiver. Failure of the Authority to take advantage of any default on the part of the City shall not be, or be construed as, a waiver thereof, nor shall any custom or practice that may grow up between the parties in the course of administering this instrument be construed to waive or to lessen the right of the Authority to insist upon performance by the City of any term, covenant or condition hereof, or Page 318 of 501 18 4142-7460-2566.8 to exercise any rights given the Authority on account of such default. A waiver of a particular default shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other default or of the same default subsequently occurring. The acceptance of Rental Payments hereunder shall not be, or be construed to be, a waiver of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease Agreement. ARTICLE VIII AMENDMENTS; ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLEASING; SUBSTITUTION OR RELEASE Amendments. (a) This Lease Agreement and the Ground Lease, and the rights and obligations of the Authority and the City hereunder and thereunder, may be amended at any time by an amendment hereto or thereto, which shall become binding upon execution by the City and the Authority, but only with the prior written consent of the Owners of a majority of the aggregate principal amount the Bonds then Outstanding, provided that no such amendment shall (i) extend the payment date of any Base Rental Payment or reduce any Base Rental Payment, without the prior written consent of the Owner of each Bond so affected, or (ii) reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount the Bonds, the consent of the Owners of which is required for the execution of any amendment of this Lease Agreement or the Ground Lease, without the prior written consent of the Owners of all the Bonds then Outstanding. (b) This Lease Agreement and the Ground Lease, and the rights and obligations of the City and the Authority hereunder and thereunder, may also be amended at any time by an amendment hereto or thereto, which shall become binding upon execution by the City and the Authority, without the written consents of any Owners, but only to the extent permitted by law and only for any one or more of the following purposes: (i) to add to the agreements, conditions, covenants and terms required by the Authority or the City to be observed or performed herein or therein other agreements, conditions, covenants and terms thereafter to be observed or performed by the Authority or the City, or to surrender any right or power reserved herein or therein to or conferred herein or therein on the Authority or the City; (ii) to make such provisions for the purpose of curing any ambiguity or of correcting, curing or supplementing any defective provision contained herein or therein or in regard to questions arising hereunder or thereunder that the Authority or the City may deem desirable or necessary and not inconsistent herewith or therewith, and that shall not materially adversely affect the rights or interests of the Owners; (iii) to make such additions, deletions or modifications as may be necessary or appropriate to assure the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Bonds or maintain any federal interest subsidies expected to be received with respect to any Bonds; or (iv) [Reserved]; (v) to provide for the substitution or release of a portion of the Property in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.03 hereof; or (vi) to make such other changes herein or therein or modifications hereto or thereto as the Authority or the City may deem desirable or necessary, and that shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the Owners. Page 319 of 501 19 4142-7460-2566.8 Assignment and Subleasing. Neither this Lease Agreement nor any interest of the City hereunder shall be sold, mortgaged, pledged, assigned or transferred by the City by voluntary act or by operation of law or otherwise; provided, however, that the Property may be subleased in whole or in part by the City, provided that any such sublease shall be subject to all of the following conditions: (a) this Lease Agreement and the obligation of the City to make all Rental Payments hereunder shall remain the primary obligation of the City; (b) the City shall, within 30 days after the delivery thereof, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Authority and the Trustee a true and complete copy of such sublease; (c) any sublease of the Property by the City shall explicitly provide that such sublease is subject to all rights of the Authority under this Lease Agreement, including, the right to re-enter and re-let the Property or terminate this Lease Agreement upon a Lease Default Event hereunder; and (d) the City shall furnish the Authority and the Trustee with an Opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such sublease will not, in and of itself, cause the interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes. Substitution or Release of the Property. The City shall have the right to substitute alternate real property for any portion of the Property or to release a portion of the Property from this Lease Agreement. The City shall bear all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any substitution or release. A substitution or release under this Section 8.03 will not cause a reduction in, or abatement of, the Base Rental Payments due from the City. Each substitution or release of any portion of the Property is subject to the following conditions, which are conditions precedent to such a substitution or release: (a) the City and the Authority must have executed, and the Trustee must have consented to, amendments to the Ground Lease and this Lease Agreement that contain the amended description of the Property as constituted after the substitution and release, and the City must have caused the amendments to be duly recorded with San Luis Obispo County Clerk/Recorder; (b) the City must have filed with the Trustee a Written Certificate of the City certifying that (1) the sum of Base Rental Payments plus Additional Rental Payments due under the Lease Agreement in any Rental Period is not in excess of the annual fair-rental value of the Property as constituted after the substitution or release, (2) the Property as constituted after the substitution or release has a useful life equal to or greater than the remaining term of the Bonds, and (3) the City has beneficial use and occupancy of the Property as constituted after such substitution or release; (c) the City must have obtained or caused to be obtained an ALTA or CLTA owner’s title-insurance policy or policies (or an amendment or endorsement to an existing policy or policies) with respect to the Property as constituted after the substitution or release, in substantially the same form as required by Section 5.02 and in an amount at least equal to the principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding. (d) The City must have filed or caused to be filed with the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the substitution or release will not, in and of itself, cause the interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income-tax purposes. Page 320 of 501 20 4142-7460-2566.8 ARTICLE IX MISCELLANEOUS Assignment to Trustee. The City understands and agrees that, upon the execution and delivery of the Indenture (which is occurring simultaneously with the execution and delivery hereof), certain right, title and interest of the Authority in and to this Lease Agreement will be sold, assigned and transferred to the Trustee for the benefit of the Owners of the Bonds. The City hereby consents to such sale, assignment and transfer. Upon the execution and delivery of the Indenture, references in the operative provisions hereof to the Authority shall be deemed to be references to the Trustee, as assignee of the Authority. Validity and Severability.

Payment of principal of, and interest and premium, if any, on, any Book-Entry Bond registered in the name of the Nominee shall be made on the applicable payment date by wire transfer of New York clearing house or equivalent next day funds or by wire transfer of same day funds to the account of the Nominee. Such payments shall be made to the Nominee at the address that is, on the Record Date, shown for the Nominee in the Registration Books. (b) With respect to Book-Entry Bonds, the Authority, the City and the Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any Participant or to any Person on behalf of which such a Participant holds an interest in such Book-Entry Bonds. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the Authority, the City and the Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (i) the accuracy of the records of the Depository, the Nominee or any Participant with respect to any ownership interest in Book-Entry Bonds, (ii) the delivery to any Participant or any other Person, other than an Owner as shown in the Registration Books, of any notice with respect to Book-Entry Bonds, including any notice of redemption, (iii) the selection by the Depository and its Participants of the beneficial interests in Book- Entry Bonds of a maturity to be redeemed in the event such Book-Entry Bonds are redeemed in part, (iv) the payment to any Participant or any other Person, other than an Owner as shown in the Registration Books, of any amount with respect to principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on Book-Entry Bonds, or (v) any consent given or other action taken by the Depository as Owner. (c) The Authority, the City and the Trustee may treat and consider the Person in whose name each Book-Entry Bond is registered in the Registration Books as the absolute Owner of such Book-Entry Bond for the purpose of payment of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on such Bond, for the purpose of selecting any Bonds, or portions thereof, to be redeemed, for the purpose of giving notices of redemption and other matters with respect to such Book-Entry Bond, for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to such Book-Entry Bond, for the purpose of obtaining any consent or other action to be taken by Owners and for all other purposes whatsoever, and the Authority, the City and the Trustee shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. (d) In the event of a redemption of all or a portion of a Book-Entry Bond, the Depository, in its discretion (i) may request the Trustee to authenticate and deliver a new Book-Entry Bond, or (ii) if the Depository is the sole Owner of such Book-Entry Bond, shall make an appropriate notation on the Book- Entry Bond indicating the date and amounts of the reduction in principal thereof resulting from such redemption, except in the case of final payment, in which case such Book-Entry Bond must be presented to the Trustee prior to payment. Page 342 of 501 13 4132-8330-4518.9 (e) The Trustee shall pay all principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the Book- Entry Bonds only to or “upon the order of” (as that term is used in the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the State) the respective Owner, as shown in the Registration Books, or such Owner’s respective attorney duly authorized in writing, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the obligations with respect to payment of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the Book-Entry Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. No Person other than an Owner, as shown in the Registration Books, shall receive an authenticated Book-Entry Bond. Upon delivery by the Depository to the Owners, the Authority, the City and the Trustee of written notice to the effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of the Nominee, and subject to the provisions herein with respect to Record Dates, the word Nominee in this Indenture shall refer to such nominee of the Depository. (f) In order to qualify the Book-Entry Bonds for the Depository’s book-entry system, the Authority shall execute and deliver to the Depository a Letter of Representations. The execution and delivery of a Letter of Representations shall not in any way impose upon the Authority, the City or the Trustee any obligation whatsoever with respect to Persons having interests in such Book-Entry Bonds other than the Owners, as shown on the Registration Books. Such Letter of Representations may provide the time, form, content and manner of transmission, of notices to the Depository. In addition to the execution and delivery of a Letter of Representations by the Authority, the Authority, the City and the Trustee shall take such other actions, not inconsistent with this Indenture, as are reasonably necessary to qualify Book-Entry Bonds for the Depository’s book-entry program. (g) In the event the Authority determines that it is in the best interests of the Beneficial Owners that they be able to obtain certificated Bonds and that such Bonds should therefore be made available, and notifies the Depository and the Trustee of such determination, the Depository will notify the Participants of the availability through the Depository of certificated Bonds. In such event, the Trustee shall transfer and exchange certificated Bonds as requested by the Depository and any other Owners in appropriate amounts. In the event (i) the Depository determines not to continue to act as securities depository for Book-Entry Bonds, or (ii) the Depository shall no longer so act and gives notice to the Trustee of such determination, then the Authority shall discontinue the Book-Entry system with the Depository. If the Authority determines to replace the Depository with another qualified securities depository, the Authority shall prepare or direct the preparation of a new single, separate, fully-registered Bond of the appropriate Series for each maturity date of such Book-Entry Bonds, registered in the name of such successor or substitute qualified securities depository or its nominee. If the Authority fails to identify another qualified securities depository to replace the Depository, then the Book-Entry Bonds shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the Registration Books in the name of the Nominee, but shall be registered in whatever name or names the Owners transferring or exchanging such Bonds shall designate, in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.06, 2.08 and 2.09. Whenever the Depository requests the Authority to do so, the Authority shall cooperate with the Depository in taking appropriate action after reasonable notice (i) to make available one or more separate certificates evidencing the Book- Entry Bonds to any Participant having Book-Entry Bonds credited to its account with the Depository, and (ii) to arrange for another securities depository to maintain custody of certificates evidencing the Book- Entry Bonds. (h) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, if the Depository is the sole Owner of the Bonds of a Series, so long as any Book-Entry Bond is registered in the name of the Nominee, all payments of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on such Book-Entry Bond of such Series and all notices with respect to such Book-Entry Bond shall be made and given, respectively, as provided in the Letter of Representations or as otherwise instructed by the Depository. Page 343 of 501 14 4132-8330-4518.9 (i) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to Owners pursuant to this Indenture by the Authority, the City or the Trustee, with respect to any consent or other action to be taken by Owners of Book-Entry Bonds, the Trustee shall establish a record date for such consent or other action and give the Depository notice of such record date not less than 15 calendar days in advance of such record date to the extent possible. (j) Prior to any transfer of Book-Entry Bonds outside the Depository’s book-entry system, the Authority shall provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee all information necessary to allow the Trustee to comply with any applicable tax reporting obligations, including any cost basis reporting obligations under Section 6045 of the Code. Section 2.08. Bonds Mutilated, Lost, Destroyed or Stolen. If any Bond shall become mutilated, the Authority, at the expense of the Owner of said Bond, shall execute, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of the same Series and maturity in a like aggregate principal amount in exchange and substitution for the Bond so mutilated, but only upon surrender to the Trustee of the Bond so mutilated. Every mutilated Bond so surrendered to the Trustee shall be canceled by it and delivered to, or upon the order of, the Authority. If any Bond shall be lost, destroyed or stolen, evidence of such loss, destruction or theft may be submitted to the Trustee and, if such evidence and indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee shall be given, the Authority, at the expense of the Owner, shall execute, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver, a new Bond of the same Series and maturity in a like aggregate principal amount in lieu of and in replacement for the Bond so lost, destroyed or stolen (or if any such Bond shall have matured or shall have been selected for redemption, instead of issuing a replacement Bond, the Trustee may pay the same without surrender thereof). The Authority may require payment by the Owner of a sum not exceeding the actual cost of preparing each replacement Bond issued under this Section and of the expenses that may be incurred by the Authority and the Trustee. Any Bond of such Series issued under the provisions of this Section in lieu of any Bond of such Series alleged to be lost, destroyed or stolen shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation on the part of the Authority whether or not the Bond so alleged to be lost, destroyed or stolen be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture with all other Bonds of such Series secured by this Indenture. Section 2.09. Temporary Bonds. The Bonds of a Series may be issued in temporary form exchangeable for definitive Bonds of such Series when ready for delivery. Any temporary Bonds may be printed, lithographed or typewritten, shall be of such Authorized Denominations as may be determined by the Authority, shall be in fully-registered form without coupons and may contain such reference to any of the provisions of this Indenture as may be appropriate. Every temporary Bond shall be executed by the Authority and authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner as the definitive Bonds. If the Authority issues temporary Bonds of a Series it shall execute and deliver definitive Bonds of such Series as promptly thereafter as practicable, and thereupon the temporary Bonds may be surrendered, for cancellation, at the Office of the Trustee and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for such temporary Bonds of such Series, an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Bonds of such Series and maturities in Authorized Denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Bonds of a Series shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Bonds of such Series authenticated and delivered hereunder. DELIVERY OF BONDS; APPLICATION OF AMOUNTS Section 3.01. Issuance of the Bonds. The Authority may, at any time, execute the Bonds and deliver the same to the Trustee. The Trustee shall authenticate the Bonds and deliver the Bonds to the Page 344 of 501 15 4132-8330-4518.9 Original Purchaser upon receipt of a Written Request of the Authority and upon receipt of the purchase price therefor.

(a) The Trustee shall establish and maintain a separate fund designated the “Costs of Issuance Fund.” On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deposit in the Costs of Issuance Fund the amount required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.02 hereof. (b) The moneys in the Costs of Issuance Fund shall be used and withdrawn by the Trustee from time to time to pay the Costs of Issuance upon submission of a Written Request of the City stating (i) the Person to whom payment is to be made and instructions for such payment, (ii) the amount to be paid, (iii) the purpose for which the obligation was incurred, (iv) that such payment is a proper charge against the Costs of Issuance Fund, and (v) that such amounts have not been the subject of a prior disbursement from the Costs of Issuance Fund, in each case together with a statement or invoice for each amount requested thereunder. On the last Business Day that is no later than six months after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall transfer any amount remaining in the Costs of Issuance Fund to the Project Fund and, upon making such transfer, the Costs of Issuance Fund shall be closed. Section 3.04. Project Fund. (a) The Trustee shall establish and maintain a separate fund designated the “Project Fund.” Within the Project Fund, the Trustee may establish and maintain a separate account designated for the respective Series of Bonds. On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deposit in the Project Fund the amount required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.02 hereof. (b) The moneys in the Project Fund shall be used and withdrawn by the Trustee from time to time to pay the Project Costs upon submission of a Written Request of the City stating (i) the Person to whom payment is to be made and instructions for such payment, (ii) the amount to be paid, (iii) the purpose for which the obligation was incurred, (iv) that such payment is a proper charge against the Project Fund, and (v) that such amounts have not been the subject of a prior disbursement from the Project Fund, in each case together with a statement or invoice for each amount requested thereunder. (c) Upon the filing of a Written Certificate of the City stating (i) that the Project has been completed and that all costs of the Project have been paid, or (ii) that the Project has been substantially completed and that all remaining costs of the Project to be paid from the Project Fund have been determined and specifying the amount to be retained therefor, the Trustee shall (A) if the amount remaining in the Project Fund (less any such retention) is equal to or greater than $25,000, transfer the portion of such amount equal to the largest integral multiple of $5,000 that is not greater than such amount to the Redemption Fund, to be applied to the redemption of Bonds, and (B) after making the transfer, if any, required to be made pursuant to the preceding clause (A), transfer all of the amount remaining in the Project Fund (less any such retention) to the Interest Account, to be applied to the Page 345 of 501 16 4132-8330-4518.9 payment of interest on the Bonds; provided, however, that, if, prior to such transfers, the Trustee receives (I) a Written Request of the City directing the Trustee make an alternate disposition of all or a portion of such amount remaining in the Project Fund (less any such retention), and (II) an Opinion of Bond Counsel to the effect that such disposition would not, in and of itself, adversely affect the exclusion of interest on the Tax-Exempt Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes, the Trustee shall make such alternate disposition of such remaining amount or portion thereof in accordance with such Written Request of the City. REDEMPTION OF BONDS Section 4.01. Extraordinary Redemption. The Bonds shall be subject to redemption, in whole or in part, on any date, in Authorized Denominations, from and to the extent of any Net Proceeds received with respect to all or a portion of the Property and deposited by the Trustee in the Redemption Fund in accordance with the provisions hereof, at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for redemption, without premium.

Section 4.03. Mandatory Sinking Fund Redemption. The Bonds maturing December 1, 20__ shall be subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption, in part, on December 1 in each year, commencing December 1, 20__, at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for redemption, without premium, in the aggregate respective principal amounts in the respective years as follows: Sinking Fund Redemption Date (December 1) Principal Amount to be Redeemed $ † † Maturity Date. If some but not all of the Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__, are extraordinarily redeemed, the principal amount of Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__, to be redeemed shall be reduced by the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__, so extraordinarily redeemed, such reduction to be allocated among redemption dates as nearly as practicable on a pro rata basis, in amounts equal to Authorized Denominations, as determined by the Trustee, notice of which determination shall be given by the Trustee to the Authority and the City. If some but not all of the Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__, are optionally redeemed, the principal amount of Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__, to be redeemed shall be reduced by the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__, so optionally redeemed, such reduction to be allocated among redemption dates in Authorized Denominations, as designated by the City in a Written Request of the City. Page 346 of 501 17 4132-8330-4518.9 The Bonds maturing December 1, 20__ shall be subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption, in part, on December 1 in each year, commencing December 1, 20__, at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for redemption, without premium, in the aggregate respective principal amounts in the respective years as follows: Sinking Fund Redemption Date (December 1) Principal Amount to be Redeemed $ † † Maturity Date.

Such notice shall state the date of the notice, the redemption date, the redemption place and the Redemption Price and shall designate the CUSIP numbers, if any, the Bond numbers, Series and the maturity or maturities of the Bonds to be redeemed (except in the event of redemption of all of the Bonds of such Series, maturity or maturities in whole), and shall require that such Bonds be then surrendered at the Office of the Trustee for redemption at the Redemption Price, giving notice also that further interest on such Bonds will not accrue from and after the date fixed for redemption. Neither the failure to receive any notice so mailed, nor any defect in such notice, shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of the Bonds or the cessation of accrual of interest thereon from and after the date fixed for redemption. With respect to any notice of any optional redemption of Bonds of a Series, unless at the time such notice is given the Bonds to be redeemed shall be deemed to have been paid within the meaning of Section 10.02 hereof, such notice shall state that such redemption is conditional upon receipt by the Trustee, on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption, of moneys that, together with other available amounts held by the Trustee, are sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest on, the Bonds to be redeemed, and that if such moneys shall not have been so received said notice shall be of no force and effect and the Authority shall not be required to redeem such Bonds. In the event a notice of redemption of Bonds contains such a condition and such moneys are not so received, the redemption of Bonds as described in the conditional notice of redemption shall not be made and the Trustee shall, within a reasonable time after the date on Page 347 of 501 18 4132-8330-4518.9 which such redemption was to occur, give notice to the Persons and in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such moneys were not so received and that there shall be no redemption of Bonds pursuant to such notice of redemption.

Section 4.06. Partial Redemption of Bonds. Upon surrender of any Bonds redeemed in part only, the Authority shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Owner thereof, at the expense of the Authority, a new Bond or Bonds of the same Series in Authorized Denominations equal in aggregate principal amount representing the unredeemed portion of the Bonds surrendered. Section 4.07. Effect of Notice of Redemption.

(b) If, on said date fixed for redemption, moneys for the Redemption Price of all the Bonds to be redeemed, together with interest to said date, shall be held by the Trustee so as to be available therefor on such date, and, if notice of redemption thereof shall have been mailed as aforesaid and not canceled, then, from and after said date, interest on said Bonds shall cease to accrue and become payable. All moneys held by or on behalf of the Trustee for the redemption of Bonds shall be held in trust for the account of the Owners of the Bonds so to be redeemed without liability to such Owners for interest thereon. (c) All Bonds paid at maturity or redeemed prior to maturity pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be canceled upon surrender thereof and destroyed.

(c) The Trustee, on each Interest Payment Date, shall transfer from the Payment Fund to each Interest Account an amount equal to the interest on the related Series of Bonds coming due on such Interest Payment Date. Moneys in each Interest Account shall be withdrawn and used by the Trustee for the purpose of paying interest on the related Series of Bonds as and when due and payable. In the event that, on such Interest Payment Date, amounts in any Interest Account are insufficient to pay the interest on the Bonds due and payable on such Interest Payment Date, the Trustee shall apply available funds therein in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.05 hereof. (d) The Trustee, on each Principal Payment Date, shall transfer from the Payment Fund to each Principal Account an amount equal to the principal of the related Series of Bonds, including principal due and payable by reason of mandatory sinking fund redemption, coming due on such date.

Notwithstanding defeasance of the Bonds pursuant to Article X hereof or anything to the contrary contained herein, all amounts required to be deposited into or on deposit in the Rebate Fund shall be governed exclusively by this Section and by the Tax Certificate (which is incorporated herein by reference). The Trustee shall be deemed conclusively to have complied with such provisions if it follows the written directions of the Authority or the City, and shall have no liability or responsibility to enforce compliance by the Authority or the City with the terms of the Tax Certificate. The Trustee may conclusively rely upon the determinations, calculations and certifications of the Authority or the City required by the Tax Certificate.

Title Insurance. Net Proceeds of any policy of title insurance received by the Trustee in respect of the Property shall be applied and disbursed by the Trustee as follows: (a) if the City determines that the title defect giving rise to such proceeds has not substantially interfered with its use and occupancy of the Property and will not result in an abatement of Rental Payments payable by the City under the Lease Agreement, such proceeds shall be remitted to the City and used for any lawful purpose thereof; or (b) if the City determines that the title defect giving rise to such proceeds has substantially interfered with its use and occupancy of the Property and will result in an abatement in whole or in part of Rental Payments payable by the City under the Lease Agreement, then the City shall, in a Written Request of the City, direct the Trustee to, and the Trustee shall immediately deposit such proceeds in the Redemption Fund and such proceeds shall be applied to the redemption of Bonds in the manner provided in Section 4.01 hereof.

Section 7.08. Limitation on Owners’ Right to Sue. No Owner of any Bond shall have the right to institute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity, for the protection or enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, the Act or any other applicable law with respect to such Bond, Page 356 of 501 27 4132-8330-4518.9 unless (a) such Owner shall have given to the Trustee written notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default, (b) the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to exercise the powers hereinbefore granted or to institute such suit, action or proceeding in its own name, (c) such Owner or said Owners shall have tendered to the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request, and (d) the Trustee shall have refused or omitted to comply with such request for a period of 60 days after such written request shall have been received by, and said tender of indemnity shall have been made to, the Trustee. Such notification, request, tender of indemnity and refusal or omission are hereby declared, in every case, to be conditions precedent to the exercise by any Owner of any remedy hereunder or under law; it being understood and intended that no one or more Owners shall have any right in any manner whatever by such Owner’s or Owners’ action to affect, disturb or prejudice the security of this Indenture or the rights of any other Owners, or to enforce any right under the Bonds, this Indenture, the Act or other applicable law with respect to the Bonds, except in the manner herein provided, and that all proceedings at law or in equity to enforce any such right shall be instituted, had and maintained in the manner herein provided and for the benefit and protection of all Owners, subject to the provisions of this Indenture. Section 7.09. Termination of Proceedings.

In case any proceedings taken by the Trustee or any one or more Owners on account of any Event of Default shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee or any Owner, then in every such case the Trustee, such Owner, the Authority and the City, subject to any determination in such proceedings, shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, severally and respectively, and all rights, remedies, powers and duties of the Trustee, the Owners, the Authority and the City shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken. Section 7.10. No Waiver of Default. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Owner to exercise any right or power arising upon the occurrence of any default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein, and every power and remedy given by this Indenture to the Trustee or to the Owners may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.

The Trustee shall, during the existence of any Event of Default that has not been cured or waived, exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. Section 8.02. Qualifications; Removal and Resignation; Successors. (a) The Trustee initially a party hereto and any successor thereto shall at all times be a trust company, national banking association or bank having trust powers in good standing in or incorporated under the laws of the United Page 357 of 501 28 4132-8330-4518.9 States or any state thereof, which is (or if such trust company, national banking association or bank is a member of a bank holding company system, its parent bank holding company is) (i) a national banking association that is supervised by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and has at least $250 million of assets, or (ii) a state-chartered commercial bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve System and has at least $1 billion of assets.

Any successor Trustee appointed under this Indenture shall signify its acceptance of such appointment by executing and delivering to the Authority and the City and to its predecessor Trustee a written acceptance thereof, and thereupon such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the moneys, estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such predecessor Trustee, with like effect as if originally named Trustee herein; but, nevertheless at the Written Request of the Authority or the Written Request of the City or the request of the successor Trustee, such predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver any and all instruments of conveyance or further assurance and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all the right, title and interest of such predecessor Trustee in and to any property held by it under this Indenture and shall pay over, transfer, assign and deliver to the successor Trustee any money or other property subject to the trusts and conditions herein set forth.

The Trustee shall be under no responsibility or duty with respect to the issuance of the Bonds for value, the application of the proceeds thereof except to the extent that such proceeds are received by it in its capacity as Trustee, or the application of any moneys paid to the Authority, the City or others in accordance with this Indenture. (c) The Trustee shall not be liable in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, except for its own negligence or willful misconduct. (d) No provision of this Indenture or any other document related hereto shall require the Trustee to risk or advance its own funds.

(f) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a responsible officer, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts. (g) The immunities and protections extended to the Trustee also extend to its directors, officers, employees and agents. (h) Before taking action under Article VII, under this Article or upon the direction of the Owners, the Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee be furnished to it to protect it against all fees and expenses, including those of its attorneys and advisors, and protect it against all liability it may incur. (i) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Owners of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds at the time Outstanding relating to the time, method and place of Page 359 of 501 30 4132-8330-4518.9 conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this Indenture. (j) The Trustee may become the Owner of Bonds with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee and, to the extent permitted by law, may act as depository for and permit any of its officers or directors to act as a member of, or in any other capacity with respect to, any committee formed to protect the rights of Owners, whether or not such committee shall represent the Owners of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding. (k) The Trustee shall have no responsibility with respect to any information, statement, or recital in any official statement, offering memorandum or any other disclosure material prepared or distributed with respect to the Bonds. (l) The Trustee shall not be liable for the failure to take any action required to be taken by it hereunder if and to the extent that the Trustee’s taking such action is prevented by reason of an act of God, terrorism, war, riot, strike, fire, flood, earthquake, epidemic or other, similar occurrence that is beyond the control of the Trustee and could not have been avoided by exercising due care. (m) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an Event of Default hereunder unless it has actual knowledge thereof.

(o) The Trustee shall not be responsible for or accountable to anyone for the subsequent use or application of any moneys that shall be released or withdrawn in accordance with the provisions hereof. Section 8.04. Right to Rely on Documents and Opinions. (a) The Trustee shall be protected in acting upon any notice, requisition, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bonds or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. (b) The Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon a Written Request of the City delivered using Electronic Means. If the City elects to deliver a Written Request of the City to the Trustee using Electronic Means and the Trustee acts upon such Written Request, the Trustee’s understanding of such Written Request shall be deemed controlling. The City understands and agrees that the Trustee cannot determine the identity of the actual sender of such Written Request and that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that Written Requests of the City that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Representative of the City have been sent by such Authorized Representative. The City shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Representatives transmit such Written Requests of the City to the Trustee and that the City is solely responsible to safeguard the use and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt thereof by the City. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such Written Requests of the City delivered using Electronic Means notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent Written Request of the City. The City agrees (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic Means to submit Written Requests of the City to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Written Requests of the City, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties, (ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Written Requests of the City to the Trustee and that there may be more secure methods of Page 360 of 501 31 4132-8330-4518.9 transmitting Written Requests of the City than the method selected by the City, (iii) that the security procedures, if any, to be followed in connection with its transmission of Written Requests of the City provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances, and (iv) to notify the Trustee immediately upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the security procedures. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this subsection, and the Trustee’s actions pursuant hereto, are subject to the Trustee’s standard of care and limitations on liability set forth in Sections 8.03 and 8.04; provided, however, that the Trustee’s reliance on a Written Request of the City that purports to have been sent by an Authorized Representative of the City delivered in accordance with this Section using Electronic Means shall not, in and of itself, be construed as negligence. (c) The Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon a Written Request of the Authority delivered using Electronic Means. If the Authority elects to deliver a Written Request of the Authority to the Trustee using Electronic Means and the Trustee acts upon such Written Request, the Trustee’s understanding of such Written Request shall be deemed controlling. The Authority understands and agrees that the Trustee cannot determine the identity of the actual sender of such Written Request and that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that Written Requests of the Authority that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Representative of the Authority have been sent by such Authorized Representative. The Authority shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Representatives transmit such Written Requests of the Authority to the Trustee and that the Authority is solely responsible to safeguard the use and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt thereof by the Authority.

The Bonds shall mature on the dates and in the amounts, and will bear interest at the rates, set forth in Exhibit A hereto and as further described in the Official Statement. The Bonds shall be issued under and pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of [September 1, 2023] (the “Indenture”), by and between the Authority and ____________________ (the “Trustee”). The proceeds of the Bonds will be used to (i) finance costs of the acquisition, design, engineering, fabrication, construction, improvement and installation of a parking structure in the City’s Cultural Arts District [and certain other public capital improvements], (ii) redeem and defease the outstanding City of San Luis Obispo Capital Improvement Board 2012 Refunding Lease Revenue Bonds, and (iii) pay costs incurred in connection with the issuance, sale and delivery of the Bonds.

(a) The Underwriter shall make a bona fide public offering of all the Bonds at not in excess of the respective initial public offering prices to be set forth on the inside cover page of the Official Statement. The Underwriter reserves the right to change such initial offering prices as the Underwriter deems necessary in connection with the marketing of the Bonds and to offer and sell the Bonds to certain dealers (including dealers depositing such bonds into investment trusts) and others at prices lower than the initial offering prices set forth on the cover page of the Official Statement. The Underwriter also reserves the right to (i) overallot or effect transactions that stabilize or maintain the market prices of the Bonds at levels above those which might otherwise prevail in the open market and (ii) discontinue such stabilizing, if commenced, at any time. “Public offering” shall include an offering to a representative number of institutional investors or registered investment companies, regardless of the number of such investors to which the Bonds are sold. (b) The Underwriter agrees to assist the City and the Authority in establishing the issue price of the Bonds and shall execute and deliver to the City and the Authority at Closing an “issue price” or similar certificate, together with the supporting pricing wires or equivalent communications, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, with such modifications as may be appropriate or necessary, in the reasonable judgment of the Underwriter, the City and the Authority and Bond Counsel (as defined below), to accurately reflect, as applicable, the sales price or prices or the initial Page 380 of 501 3 offering price or prices to the public of the Bonds. All actions to be taken by the City and the Authority under this section to establish the issue price of the Bonds may be taken on behalf of the City and the Authority by the City and the Authority’s municipal advisor, PFM California Advisors LLC (the “Municipal Advisor”) and any notice or report to be provided to the Authority may be provided to the Authority’s Municipal Advisor. (c) Except as otherwise set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto, the City and the Authority will treat the first price at which 10% of each maturity of the Bonds (the “10% test”), identified under the column “10% Test Used” in Exhibit A, is sold to the public as the issue price of that maturity. At or promptly after the execution of this Purchase Contract, the Underwriter shall report to the City and the Authority the price or prices at which it has sold to the public each maturity of Bonds. If at that time the 10% test has not been satisfied as to any maturity of the Bonds, the Underwriter agrees to promptly report to the City and the Authority the prices at which it sells the unsold Bonds of that maturity to the public. That reporting obligation shall continue, whether or not the Closing Date (as defined below) has occurred, until either (i) the Underwriter has sold all Bonds of that maturity or (ii) the 10% test has been satisfied as to the Bonds of that maturity, provided that, the Underwriter’s reporting obligation after the Closing Date may be at reasonable periodic intervals or otherwise upon request of the City and the Authority or Bond Counsel. For purposes of this section, if Bonds mature on the same date but have different interest rates, each separate CUSIP number within that maturity will be treated as a separate maturity of the Bonds. (d) The Underwriter confirms that it has offered the Bonds to the public on or before the date of this Purchase Contract at the offering price or prices (the “initial offering price”), or at the corresponding yield or yields, set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto, except as otherwise set forth therein. Exhibit A also sets forth, identified under the column “Hold the Offering Price Used,” as of the date of this Purchase Contract, the maturities, if any, of the Bonds for which the 10% test has not been satisfied and for which the City, the Authority and the Underwriter agree that the restrictions set forth in the next sentence shall apply, which will allow the City and the Authority to treat the initial offering price to the public of each such maturity as of the sale date as the issue price of that maturity (the “hold-the-offering-price rule”). So long as the hold-the-offering-price rule remains applicable to any maturity of the Bonds, the Underwriter will neither offer nor sell unsold Bonds of that maturity to any person at a price that is higher than the initial offering price to the public during the period starting on the sale date and ending on the earlier of the following: (A) the close of the fifth (5th) business day after the sale date; or (B) the date on which the Underwriter has sold at least 10% of that maturity of the Bonds to the public at a price that is no higher than the initial offering price to the public. The Underwriter will advise the City and the Authority promptly after the close of the fifth (5th) business day after the sale date whether it has sold 10% of that maturity of the Bonds to the public at a price that is no higher than the initial offering price to the public. (e) The Underwriter confirms that: (A) any selling group agreement and any third-party distribution agreement relating to the initial sale of the Bonds to the public, together with the related pricing wires, contains or will contain language obligating each dealer who is a member of the selling group and each broker- dealer that is a party to such third-party distribution agreement, as applicable: Page 381 of 501 4 (1) to report the prices at which it sells to the public the unsold Bonds of each maturity allocated to it, whether or not the Closing Date has occurred, until either all Bonds of that maturity allocated to it have been sold or it is notified by the Underwriter that the 10% test has been satisfied as to the Bonds of that maturity, provided that, the reporting obligation after the Closing Date may be at reasonable periodic intervals or otherwise upon request of the Underwriter, and (ii) to comply with the hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable, if and for so long as directed by the Underwriter; (2) to promptly notify the Underwriter of any sales of Bonds that, to its knowledge, are made to a purchaser who is a related party to an underwriter participating in the initial sale of the Bonds to the public (each such term being used as defined below); and (3) to acknowledge that, unless otherwise advised by the dealer or broker-dealer, the Underwriter shall assume that each order submitted by the dealer or broker-dealer is a sale to the public. (B) any selling group agreement relating to the initial sale of the Bonds to the public, together with the related pricing wires, contains or will contain language obligating each dealer that is a party to a third-party distribution agreement to be employed in connection with the initial sale of the Bonds to the public to require each broker-dealer that is a party to such third-party distribution agreement to (A) report the prices at which it sells to the public the unsold Bonds of each maturity allocated to it, whether or not the Closing Date has occurred, until either all Bonds of that maturity allocated to it have been sold or it is notified by the Underwriter or the dealer that the 10% test has been satisfied as to the Bonds of that maturity, provided that, the reporting obligation after the Closing Date may be at reasonable periodic intervals or otherwise upon request of the Underwriter or the dealer, and (B) comply with the hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable, if and for so long as directed by the Underwriter or the dealer and as set forth in the related pricing wires. (f) The City and the Authority acknowledge that, in making the representations set forth in this section, the Underwriter will rely on (i) in the event a selling group has been created in connection with the initial sale of the Bonds to the public, the agreement of each dealer who is a member of the selling group to comply with the requirements for establishing issue price of the Bonds, including, but not limited to, its agreement to comply with the hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable to the Bonds, as set forth in a selling group agreement and the related pricing wires, and (ii) in the event that a third-party distribution agreement was employed in connection with the initial sale of the Bonds to the public, the agreement of each broker-dealer that is a party to such agreement to comply with the requirements for establishing issue price of the Bonds, including, but not limited to, its agreement to comply with the hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable to the Bonds, as set forth in the third-party distribution agreement and the related pricing wires. The City and the Authority further acknowledge that the Underwriter shall not be liable for the failure of any dealer who is a member of a selling group, or of any broker-dealer that is a party to a third-party distribution agreement, to comply with its corresponding agreement to comply with the requirements for establishing issue price of the Bonds, including, but not limited to, its agreement to comply with the hold-the-offering- price rule, if applicable to the Bonds. (g) The Underwriter acknowledges that sales of any Bonds to any person that is a related party to an underwriter participating in the initial sale of the Bonds to the public (each such term being used as defined below) shall not constitute sales to the public for purposes of this section. Further, for purposes of this section: Page 382 of 501 5 (A) “public” means any person other than an underwriter or a related party; (B) “underwriter” means (i) any person that agrees pursuant to a written contract with the City and the Authority (or with the lead underwriter to form an underwriting syndicate) to participate in the initial sale of the Bonds to the public and (ii) any person that agrees pursuant to a written contract directly or indirectly with a person described in clause (i) to participate in the initial sale of the Bonds to the public (including a member of a selling group or a party to a third- party distribution agreement participating in the initial sale of the Bonds to the public); and (C) a purchaser of any of the Bonds is a “related party” to an underwriter if the underwriter and the purchaser are subject, directly or indirectly, to (i) more than 50% common ownership of the voting power or the total value of their stock, if both entities are corporations (including direct ownership by one corporation of another), (ii) more than 50% common ownership of their capital interests or profits interests, if both entities are partnerships (including direct ownership by one partnership of another), or (iii) more than 50% common ownership of the value of the outstanding stock of the corporation or the capital interests or profit interests of the partnership, as applicable, if one entity is a corporation and the other entity is a partnership (including direct ownership of the applicable stock or interests by one entity of the other); and (D) “sale date” means the date of execution of this Purchase Contract by the City, the Authority, and the Underwriter. 4.

(i) The authorization, execution, and delivery by the City of the City Documents, and compliance by the City with the provisions thereof, do not and will not conflict with or constitute a breach of or default by the City under any applicable constitutional provision, law, or administrative rule or regulation of the State or the United States, or any applicable judgment, decree, consent, or other agreement to which it is bound or by which its properties may be affected. (j) No authorization, consent, or approval of, or filing or registration with, any Governmental Authority or court is, or under existing requirements of law will be, necessary for the valid execution and delivery of, or performance by the City of its obligations under, the City Documents, other than any authorization, consent, approval, filing, or registration as may be required under the Blue Sky or securities laws of any state in connection with the offering, sale, or issuance of the Bonds (except no representation is made regarding any authorization, consent, approval, filing, or registration as may be required under the Blue Sky or securities laws of any state in connection with the offering, sale, or issuance of the Bonds).

The offering of the Bonds to potential investors is made only by means of the entire Official Statement. Capitalized terms used in this Introduction and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to them elsewhere in this Official Statement. Purpose The purpose of this Official Statement, including the appendices hereto, is to furnish information regarding the issuance and sale by the San Luis Obispo Public Financing Authority (the “Authority”) of $[PAR]* aggregate principal amount of its Lease Revenue Bonds (Cultural Arts District Parking Project), Series 2023 (the “Bonds”). The Bonds are being issued pursuant to the provisions of a resolution of the Authority adopted on [August 15, 2023] (the “Resolution”) and an Indenture dated as of [September 1, 2023] (the “Indenture”), between the Authority and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee thereunder (the “Trustee”). The Bonds will be issued in full conformity with the Constitution and laws of the State of California (the “State”), including the Marks-Roos Local Bond Pooling Act of 1985, constituting Article 4 (commencing with Section 6584) of Chapter 5, Division 7, Title 1 of the California Government Code, as amended from time to time. The primary purpose of issuing the Bonds is to finance costs of the acquisition, design, engineering, fabrication, construction, improvement and installation of a parking structure in the City’s Cultural Arts District (the “Series 2023 Project”) and to redeem and defease the outstanding principal amount of the City of San Luis Obispo Capital Improvement Board 2012 Refunding Lease Revenue Bonds (the “2012 Bonds”). See “THE PLAN OF FINANCE” herein. Proceeds of the Bonds will also be used to pay costs incurred in connection with the issuance, sale and delivery of the Bonds. Pursuant to a Ground Lease (the “Ground Lease”), between the City of San Luis Obispo (the “City”), as lessor and the Authority, as lessee, the City will lease to the Authority the real property and the improvements thereon (the “Leased Property”). Concurrently, the Authority will lease the Leased Property to the City pursuant to a Lease Agreement (the “Lease Agreement”), between the Authority, as lessor and the City, as lessee. See “THE LEASED PROPERTY” herein. Sources of Payment for the Bonds The Bonds shall be special obligations of the Authority, payable solely from the Lease Revenues (hereafter defined) and the other assets pledged under the Indenture. Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the Authority, the City or the State, or any political subdivision thereof, is pledged to the payment of the Bonds. The Authority will assign to the Trustee all of the Lease Revenues and all of the rights of the Authority in the Lease Agreement, except for certain rights to indemnification set forth therein. Page 419 of 501 -2- 4125-9942-2535.12 The Base Rental Payments (as further defined herein) are designed to be sufficient in both time and amount to pay, when due, the principal of and interest on the Bonds. The City has covenanted under the Lease Agreement to take such action as may be necessary to include all Rental Payments (as further defined herein) due thereunder as a separate line item in its annual budgets and to make necessary annual appropriations for all such Rental Payments. However, during any period in which, by reason of material damage to, or destruction or condemnation of, the Leased Property, or any defect in title to the Leased Property, there is substantial interference with the City’s right to use and occupy any portion of the Leased Property, Rental Payments shall be abated proportionately. Such abatement shall continue for the period commencing with the date of interference resulting from such damage, destruction, condemnation or title defect and, with respect to damage to or destruction of the Leased Property, ending with the substantial completion of the work of repair or replacement of the Leased Property, or the portion thereof so damaged or destroyed. See “RISK FACTORS—Abatement” herein. The obligation of the City to make the Rental Payments, including the Base Rental Payments, does not constitute a debt of the City or of the State or of any political subdivision thereof within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limit or restriction, and does not constitute an obligation for which the City or the State is obligated to levy or pledge any form of taxation or for which the City or the State has levied or pledged any form of taxation. The City has assumed responsibility under the Lease Agreement for the operati on, maintenance and repair of the Leased Property, and is required to maintain or cause to be maintained insurance on the Leased Property, including title insurance, fire and extended coverage, comprehensive public liability and property damage insurance, and rental income interruption insurance with respect to property damage risks in an amount not less than the product of two times the maximum amount of Base Rental Payments scheduled to be paid during any rental period. See “SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS” herein. No debt service reserve fund will be established for the Bonds. The Authority The Authority is a joint exercise of powers authority established pursuant to an agreement between the City and the City of San Luis Obispo Parking Authority (the “Parking Authority”). See “THE AUTHORITY” herein. The City For certain information concerning the City, including the City’s current financial situation, see “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION” herein and Appendix A—“AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022” hereto. Summaries Not Definitive; Definitions Brief descriptions of the Bonds, the Authority, the City, the Series 2023 Project and the Leased Property are included in this Official Statement, together with summaries of the Indenture, the Lease Agreement and the Ground Lease. Such descriptions do not purport to be comprehensive or definitive. All references herein to the Bonds, the Indenture, the Lease Agreement and the Ground Lease are qualified in their entirety by reference to the actual documents or with respect to the Bonds, the form of which is included in the Indenture. Copies of all such documents are available for inspection at the corporate trust office of the Trustee in Los Angeles, California. Definitions of certain capitalized terms used in this Official Statement and not otherwise defined herein or in Appendix C hereto shall have the meanings set forth in the Indenture and the Lease Agreement. The summaries of and references contained herein to the Indenture, the Bonds, the Lease Agreement, Page 420 of 501 -3- 4125-9942-2535.12 Ground Lease, statutes and other documents do not purport to be comprehensive or definitive and are qualified by reference to each such document, instrument or statute. Continuing Disclosure The City has covenanted for the benefit of owners of the Bonds to provide certain financial information and operating data and to provide notices of the occurrence of certain enumerated events in order to assist the Raymond James & Associates, Inc. (the “Underwriter”) in complying with Securities Exchange Commission Rule 15c2-12(b)(5). See “CONTINUING DISCLOSURE” herein. Other General Fund Obligations The City has other obligations payable from its general fund and may enter into additional obligations payable from its general fund in the future. For additional detail, see Note 6 (“Long-Term Debt”) in Appendix A—“AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022” hereto. THE LEASED PROPERTY General The City will lease all of the Leased Property summarized below to the Authority pursuant to the Ground Lease, and the Authority will lease back all of the Leased Property to the City pursuant to the Lease Agreement. The Leased Property consists of a number of essential City properties and the sites thereof. The Leased Property includes site development, landscaping, utilities, equipment, furnishings, improvements and appurtenant, and related facilities located on the real property, including any future improvements made to such Leased Property. The City covenants that so long as the Leased Property is available for use and occupancy, the City will take such actions as may be necessary to include all Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments with respect to each Leased Property asset in its annual budgets and to make the necessary annual appropriations therefor. The value of each facility of the Leased Property is based upon projected construction cost, historical costs, estimates of replacement cost or insured value. The actual market value may differ materially from the estimated value listed below. The Authority has only a leasehold interest in the Leased Property and is not authorized to sell any such asset. The City represents and agrees in the Lease Agreement that the annual Base Rental Payments represent the fair rental value of the respective Leased Assets. Description of Leased Property Pursuant to the Lease Agreement, the City will sublease from the Authority the Leased Prop erty, which consists of the facilities described below. Marsh Street Parking Structure. The City is leasing its parking structure located at 871 Marsh Street, an approximately 215,838 square foot, [4 floor] concrete building with 520 parking spaces and 19 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, [as well as 4,000 square feet of retail space and 15,000 square feet of office space.] The structure was built in 1991. The approximate value of land and improvements is estimated at $75,305,490 based on a commercial broker price opinion the City received from McCarty Davis Commercial Real Estate on June 30, 2023. Page 421 of 501 -4- 4125-9942-2535.12 No other property of the City or the Authority will initially be subject to the Lease Agreement . Under the Lease Agreement and the Indenture, the City may change or substitute other capital facilities for the Leased Property subject to the provisions described therein. See Appendix C—“SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—LEASE AGREEMENT—Lease of Leased Property; Term; Substitution—Substitution and Release of Property” hereto. Additions to the Leased Property, Substitution or Release of Property The City may amend the Lease Agreement to add additional real property to the Leased Property, substitute alternate real property for any portion of the Property or to release a portion of the Property from the Lease Agreement, upon completion of the conditions set forth in the Lease Agreement. In order to effect such release and substitution, the City is required to provide the Authority and the Trustee, among other things, (a) an ALTA policy of title insurance insuring the City’s leasehold estate under the Lease Agreement in the Leased Property, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances in an amount which, together with the amount of title insurance applicable to the unreleased portion of the Leased Property, equals at least the aggregate principal amount of Bonds then outstanding, and (b) an opinion of bond counsel stating that such substitution or release will not, in and of itself, cause the interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes. A substitution or release of Leased Property under the Lease Agreement will not cause a reduction in, or abatement of, the Base Rental Payments due from the City. THE PLAN OF FINANCE Cultural Arts District Parking Structure A portion of the proceeds of the Bonds will be used to finance the costs of the acquisition, design, engineering, fabrication, construction, improvement and installation of the City’s Cultural Arts District Parking Structure, an approximately 163,000 square foot, 5-story building, with approximately 397 parking spaces. The Cultural Arts District Parking Structure will be located at 609 Palm Street, with access on Palm Street and Nipomo Street, adjacent to a new San Luis Obispo Repertory Theatre site with two performance spaces expected to open in early 2027. There is a potential that up to 12 housing units could be developed on the property, adjacent to the structure, by an as of yet undetermined party. The diagrams on the following pages represent the location of the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure and other nearby parking structures. Contractors and Schedule. Construction of the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure is being completed in two phases. The first phase, consisting of demolition of tree protection, demolition of vacant residential buildings, and demolition of an existing surface-level parking structure, is underway. The City expects to award the construction contract for the second phase, consisting of vertical construction of the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure, to the contractor(s) submitting the lowest responsive responsible bid based upon a guaranteed maximum price procurement approach. Construction is expected to commence in December 2023 and be completed in late 2025. Environmental and Land Use Approvals. Projects undertaken by the City, including the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure, are generally subject to the California Environmental Quality Act, as amended (Division 13 of the California Public Resources Code) (“CEQA”). Under CEQA, a public agency is required, following preparation of an initial study, to determine whether an environmental impact report (an “EIR”), a negative declaration or a mitigated negative declaration is required for a project. If there is substantial evidence that significant environmental effects may occur, an EIR is required to be prepared. The City prepared an EIR for the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure that was certified on July 17, 2018. In addition, the City prepared an addendum in July 2019 due to certain changes to the zoning and Page 422 of 501 -5- 4125-9942-2535.12 land use designations. All other land use approvals necessary to proceed with the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure have been obtained or are expected to be obtained in due course. Page 423 of 501 -6- 4125-9942-2535.12 Page 424 of 501 -7- 4125-9942-2535.12 Refunding A portion of the proceeds of the Bonds, together with other available moneys, will be applied to redeem and defease the 2012 Bonds. The 2012 Bonds will be redeemed and defeased on or about [2012 Bonds Redemption Date] (the “Redemption Date”) pursuant to the legal documents under which the 2012 Bonds were issued. The City issued the 2012 Bonds in the aggregate principal amount of $5,050,000 for the purpose of refunding three series of lease revenue bonds originally issued in 2001. The 2012 Bonds are currently outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $2,415,000, which will be redeemed in full, on a current basis on the Redemption Date, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with interest coming due and payable on the redemption date. In order to accomplish the refinancing plan, the a portion of the net proceeds of the Bonds, together with certain other funds on hand with respect to the 2012 Bonds, will be transferred to U.S. Bank Trust Company, N.A., acting as the current trustee for the 2012 Bonds (the “Escrow Agent”), for deposit in an escrow fund to be established under the Escrow Agreement dated as of [September 1, 2023], given by the Authority and the City to the Escrow Agent. Prior to the Closing Date, the City will deposit with the trustee for the [2012 Bonds the amount equal to the debt service on the 2012 Bonds coming due on [December 1, 2023.]] [Moneys deposited to defease the bonds will be held by the Escrow Agent either as cash or as non-callable federal securities, the principal of and interest on which when due will, in the written opinion of an Independent Accountant filed with the City, the Capital Improvement Board of the City and the Trustee, provide money sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds to be paid on the Redemption Date.] The 2012 Bonds to be redeemed and defeased in whole upon issuance of the Bonds are set forth in the following table.

The Bonds shall be dated as of the Closing Date, shall be issued in the aggregate principal amount of $[Par Amount], shall mature on [Maturity Month] 1 of each year, shall bear interest at the rates per annum (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) and shall be in the principal amounts set forth on the inside cover page hereof. The Bonds shall initially be issued as Book-Entry Bonds. Payment of principal of, and interest and premium, if any, on, any Book-Entry Bond registered in the name of the Nominee shall be made on the applicable payment date by wire transfer of New York clearing house or equivalent next day funds or by wire transfer of same day funds to the account of the Nominee. Such payments shall be made to the Nominee at the address that is, on the Record Date, shown for the Nominee in the Registration Books. The Bonds shall be executed in the name and on behalf of the Authority with the manual or facsimile signature of an Authorized Representative of the Authority attested by the manual or facsi mile signature of the Secretary of the Authority. The Bonds shall then be delivered to the Trustee for authentication by it. In case any of such officers of the Authority who shall have signed or attested any of the Bonds shall cease to be such officers before the Bonds so signed or attested shall have been authenticated or delivered by the Trustee, or issued by the Authority, such Bonds may nevertheless be authenticated, delivered and issued and, upon such authentication, delivery and issue, shall be as binding upon the Authority as though those who signed and attested the same had continued to be such officers, and also any Bonds may be signed and attested on behalf of the Authority by such Persons as at the actual date of execution of such Bonds shall be the proper officers of the Authority although at the nominal date of such Bonds any such Person shall not have been such officer of the Authority. The Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept, at the Office of the Trustee, sufficient records for the registration and transfer of ownership of the Bonds, which shall be available for inspection and copying by the Authority and the City during regular business hours and upon reasonable notice; and, upon presentation for such purpose, the Trustee shall, Page 426 of 501 -9- 4125-9942-2535.12 under such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, register or transfer or cause to be registered or transferred, on such records, the ownership of the Bonds provided in the Indenture. Interest on the Bonds shall be payable from the Interest Payment Date next pre ceding the date of authentication thereof unless (i) a Bond is authenticated on or before an Interest Payment Date and after the close of business on the preceding Record Date, in which event interest thereon shall be payable from such Interest Payment Date, (ii) a Bond is authenticated on or before the first Record Date, in which event interest thereon shall be payable from the Closing Date, or (iii) interest on any Bond is in default as of the date of authentication thereof, in which event interest thereon shall be payable from the date to which interest has previously been paid or duly provided for. Interest shall be paid in lawful money of the United States on each Interest Payment Date. Except as otherwise provided in the Letter of Representations, interest shall be paid by check of the Trustee mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, on each Interest Payment Date to the Owners of the Bonds at their respective addresses shown on the Registration Books as of the close of business on the preceding Record Date, or by wire transfer at the written request of an Owner of not less than $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Bonds, which written request is received by the Trustee on or prior to the Record Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest on any Bond that is not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date shall, if and to the extent that amounts subsequently become available therefor, be paid on a payment date established by the Trustee to the Person in whose name the ownership of such Bond is registered on the Registration Books at the close of business on a special record date to be established by the Trustee for the payment of such defaulted interest, notice of which shall be given to such Owner not less than ten days prior to such special record date. Redemption The Bonds are subject to optional redemption and extraordinary redemption as described below. Optional Redemption The Bonds maturing on or after December 1, 20__, shall be subject to optional redemption, in whole or in part in Authorized Denominations on any date on or after December 1, 20__, from and to the extent of prepaid Base Rental Payments, at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption, without premium.

Mandatory Sinking Fund Redemption The Bonds maturing December 1, 20__, shall be subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption, in part, on June 1 in each year, commencing December 1, 20__, at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for redemption, without premium, in the aggregate respective principal amounts in the respective years as follows: Page 427 of 501 -10- 4125-9942-2535.12 Sinking Fund Redemption Date (December 1) Principal Amount to be Redeemed $ † † Maturity Date. If some but not all of the Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__, are extraordinarily redeemed, the principal amount of Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__, to be redeemed shall be reduced by the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__, so extraordinarily redeemed, such reduction to be allocated among redemption dates as nearly as practicable on a pro rata basis, in amounts equal to Authorized Denominations, as determined by the Trustee, notice of which determination shall be given by the Trustee to the Authority and the City. If some but not all of the Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__, are optionally redeemed, the principal amount of Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__, to be redeemed shall be reduced by the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__, so optionally redeemed, such reduction to be allocated among redemption dates in Authorized Denominations, as designated by the City in a Written Request of the City. The Bonds maturing December 1, 20__ shall be subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption, in part, on June 1 in each year, commencing December 1, 20__, at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for redemption, without premium, in the aggregate respective principal amounts in the respective years as follows: Sinking Fund Redemption Date (December 1) Principal Amount to be Redeemed $ † † Maturity Date. If some but not all of the Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__ are redeemed pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof, the principal amount of Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__ to be redeemed pursuant to this Section shall be reduced by the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__ so redeemed pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof, such reduction to be allocated among redemption dates as nearly as practicable on a pro rata basis, in amounts equal to Authorized Denominations, as determined by the Trustee, notice of which determination shall be given by the Trustee to the Authority and the City. If some but not all of the Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__ are redeemed pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof, the principal amount of Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__ to be redeemed pursuant to this Section shall be reduced by the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds maturing on December 1, 20__ so redeemed pursuant to Section 4.02 hereof, such reduction to be allocated among redemption dates in Authorized Denominations, as designated by the City in a Written Certificate of the City. Page 428 of 501 -11- 4125-9942-2535.12 Notice of Redemption The Trustee on behalf and at the expense of the Authority shall mail (by first class mail) notice of any redemption to the respective Owners of any Bonds designated for redemption at their respective addresses appearing on the Registration Books at least 20 but not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. Such notice shall state the date of the notice, the redemption date, the redemption place and the Redemption Price and shall designate the CUSIP numbers, if any, the Bond numbers, Series and the maturity or maturities of the Bonds to be redeemed (except in the event of redemption of all of the Bonds of such Series, maturity or maturities in whole), and shall require that such Bonds be then surrendered at the Office of the Trustee for redemption at the Redemption Price, giving notice also that further interest on such Bonds will not accrue from and after the date fixed for redemption. Neither the failure to receive any notice so mailed, nor any defect in such notice, shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of the Bonds or the cessation of accrual of interest thereon from and after the date fixed for redemption . With respect to any notice of any optional redemption of Bonds of a Series, unless at the time such notice is given the Bonds to be redeemed shall be deemed to have been paid within the meaning of the Indenture, such notice shall state that such redemption is conditional upon receipt by the Trustee, on or prior to the date fixed for such redemption, of moneys that, together with other available amounts held by the Trustee, are sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest on, the Bonds to be redeemed, and that if such moneys shall not have been so received said notice shall be of no force and effect and the Authority shall not be required to redeem such Bonds. In the event a notice of redemption of Bonds contains such a condition and such moneys are not so received, the redemption of Bonds as described in the conditional notice of redemption shall not be made and the Trustee shall, within a reasonable time after the date on which such redemption was to occur, give notice to the Persons and in the man ner in which the notice of redemption was given, that such moneys were not so received and that there shall be no redemption of Bonds pursuant to such notice of redemption. Effect of Redemption Notice having been mailed, and moneys for the Redemption Price, and the interest to the applicable date fixed for redemption, having been set aside with the Trustee, the Bonds shall become due and payable on said date, and, upon presentation and surrender thereof at the Office of the Trustee, said Bonds shall be paid at the Redemption Price thereof, together with interest accrued and unpaid to said date. If, on said date fixed for redemption, moneys for the Redemption Price of all the Bonds to be redeemed, together with interest to said date, shall be held by the Trustee so as to be available therefor on such date, and, if notice of redemption thereof shall have been mailed as aforesaid and not canceled, then, from and after said date, interest on said Bonds shall cease to accrue and become payable. All moneys held by or on behalf of the Trustee for the redemption of Bonds shall be held in trust for the account of the Owners of the Bonds so to be redeemed without liability to such Owners for interest thereon. All Bonds paid at maturity or redeemed prior to maturity pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture shall be canceled upon surrender thereof and destroyed. SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS General The Bonds shall be special obligations of the Authority, payable solely from the Lease Revenues and the other assets pledged therefor hereunder. Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the Authority, the City or the State, or any political subdivision thereof, is pledged to the payment of the Bonds. The term “Lease Revenues” means all Base Rental Payments payable by the City pursuant to the Lease Page 429 of 501 -12- 4125-9942-2535.12 Agreement, including any prepayments thereof, any Net Proceeds and any amounts received by the Trustee as a result of or in connection with the Trustee’s pursuit of remedies under the Lease Agreement upon a Lease Default Event. Under the Indenture, the Authority assigns and transfers to the Trustee, irrevocably and absolutely, without recourse, for the benefit of the Owners, all of its right, title and interest in and to the Ground Lease and the Lease Agreement, including, without limitation, the right to receive Base Rental Payments and the right to exercise any remedies provided in the Lease Agreement in the event of a default by the City thereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be required to perform any of the substantive obligations of the Authority thereunder, and, provided, further that Authority shall retain the rights to indemnification, to give consents and approvals thereunder, and to payment or reimbursement of its reasonable costs and expenses under the Lease Agreement. The Trustee hereby accepts said assignment for the benefit of the Owners, subject to the provisions of the Indenture. Subject only to the provisions of the Indenture permitting the application thereof for the purposes and on the terms and conditions set forth therein, in order to secure the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds in accordance with their terms, the provisions of the Indenture and the Act, the Authority hereby pledges to the Owners, and grants thereto a lien on and a security interest in, all of the Lease Revenues and any other amounts held in the Payment Fund. Said pledge shall constitute a first lien on and security interest in such assets, which shall immediately attach to such assets and be effective, binding and enforceable against the Authority, its successors, purchasers of any of such assets, creditors and all others asserting rights therein, to the extent set forth in, and in accordance with, th e Indenture, irrespective of whether those parties have notice of the pledge of, lien on and security interest in such assets and without the need for any physical delivery, recordation, filing or further act. The Bonds are special obligations of the Authority, payable, as provided in the Indenture, solely from Lease Revenues and the other assets pledged therefor thereunder. Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the Authority, the City or the State, or any political subdivision thereof, is pledged to the payment of the Bonds. The Lease Revenues consist of all Base Rental Payments payable by the City pursuant to the Lease Agreement, including any prepayments thereof, any Net Proceeds and any amounts received by the Trustee as a result of or in connection with the Trustee’s pursuit of remedies under the Lease Agreement upon a Lease Default Event. Base Rental Payments Rental Payments, consisting of Base Rental Payments and Additional Rental Payments, will be paid by the City to the Authority for and in consideration of the right to use and occupy the Leased Property and in consideration of the continued right to the quiet use and enjoyment thereof during each Rental Period for which such Rental Payments are to be paid. The Base Rental Payments shall be due and payable no later than the fifth Business Day next preceding each Interest Payment Date (the “Base Rental Deposit Date”) on which such Base Rental Payment is due in an amount equal to the principal, if any, of and interest on the Bonds due and payable on such Interest Payment Date, including principal due and payable by reason of mandatory sinking fund redemption of the Bonds. Additional Rental Payments In addition to the Base Rental Payments, the Lease Agreement requires the City to pay, as Additional Rental Payments, such amounts as will be required for the following: (i) all taxes and assessments of any type or nature charged to the Authority or the City or affecting the Property or the respective interests or estates of the Authority or the City therein; Page 430 of 501 -13- 4125-9942-2535.12 (ii) insurance premiums for all insurance required pursuant to Article V hereof; and (iii) all other payments not constituting Base Rental Payments required to be paid by the City pursuant to the provisions of this Lease Agreement. Amounts constituting Additional Rental Payments payable hereunder shall be paid by the City directly to the person or persons to whom such amounts shall be payable . The City shall pay all such amounts when due or at such later time as such amounts may be paid without penalty or, in any other case, within 60 days after notice in writing from the Trustee to the City stating the amount of Additional Rental Payments then due and payable and the purpose thereof. No Debt Service Reserve Fund No debt service reserve fund will be established for the Bonds. Insurance General Liability Insurance. The Lease Agreement requires the City to maintain or cause to be maintained, throughout the term of the Lease Agreement, a standard comprehensive general liability insurance policy or policies in protection of the City, the Authority and their respective members, officers, agents and employees. Said policy or policies shall provide for indemnification of said parties against direct or contingent loss or liability for damages for bodily and personal injury, death or property damage occasioned by reason of the use or ownership of the Leased Property. Said policy or policies shall provide coverage in the minimum liability limits of $1,000,000 for personal injury or death of each person and $3,000,000 for personal injury or deaths of two or more persons in a single accident or event, and in a minimum amount of $500,000 for damage to property (subject to a deductible clause of not to exceed $100,000) resulting from a single accident or event. Such public liability and property damage insurance may, however, be in the form of a single limit policy in the amount of $3,000,000 covering all such risks. Such liability insurance may be maintained as part of or in conjunction with any other liability insura nce coverage carried or required to be carried by the City. The Net Proceeds of such liability insurance shall be applied toward extinguishment or satisfaction of the liability with respect to which the Net Proceeds of such insurance shall have been paid. The City’s obligations to provide general liability insurance may be satisfied by self-insurance in accordance with the Lease Agreement. See Appendix C—“SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—LEASE AGREEMENT—Insurance” hereto. Casualty Insurance. The Lease Agreement requires the City to maintain or cause to be maintained casualty insurance insuring the Leased Property against fire, lightning and all other risks covered by an extended coverage endorsement (excluding earthquake and flood) to the full insurable value of the Leased Property, subject to a $100,000 loss deductible provision. Full insurable value shall not be less than the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds. The City’s obligations under this subsection may be satisfied by self-insurance in accordance with the Lease Agreement. Rental Interruption Insurance. The Lease Agreement requires the City to maintain rental interruption insurance to cover the Authority’s loss, total or partial, of Base Rental Payments resulting from the loss, total or partial, of the use of any part of the Leased Property as a result of any of the hazards required to be covered by the casualty insurance policy in an amount not less than the product of two times the maximum amount of Base Rental Payments scheduled to be paid during any Rental Period. The Net Proceeds of such rental interruption insurance shall be applied to the payment of Rental Payments during the period in which, as a result of the damage or destruction to the Leased Property that resulted in the receipt of such Net Proceeds, there is substantial interference with the City’s right to the use or occupancy Page 431 of 501 -14- 4125-9942-2535.12 of the Leased Property. The City’s obligations to provide rental interruption insurance may not be satisfied by self-insurance. The insurance required under the Lease Agreement other than self-insured as provided shall be provided by reputable insurance companies with claims paying abilities determined, in the reasonable opinion of the City’s professionally qualified risk manager or an independent insurance consultant, to be adequate for the purposes of the Lease Agreement. All such policies shall contain a standard lessee clause in favor of the Trustee and the general liability insurance policies shall be endorsed to show the Trustee, as an additional insured. All such policies shall provide that the Trustee shall be given 30 days’ notice of the expiration thereof, any intended cancellation thereof or any reduction in the coverage provided thereby. The Trustee shall be fully protected in accepting payment on account of such insurance or any adjustment, compromise or settlement of any loss agreed to by the City. Title Insurance. The Lease Agreement requires the City to provide, on the Closing Date, at its own expense, one or more CLTA or ALTA title insurance policies for the Leased Property, in the aggregate amount of not less than the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds. Said policy or policies shall insure (a) the fee interest of the City in the Leased Property (b) the Authority’s ground leasehold estate in the Leased Property under the Ground Lease, and (c) the City’s leasehold estate under the Lease Agreement in the Leased Property, subject only to Permitted Encumbrances; provided, however, that one or more of said estates may be insured through an endorsement to such policy or policies. Damage or Destruction of the Leased Property If the Leased Property or any portion thereof is damaged or destroyed, the City will, within 30 days of the occurrence of the event of damage or destruction, notify the Trustee in writing of the City’s determination as to whether or not such damage or destruction will result in a substantial interference with the City’s right to the use or occupancy of the Property and an abatement in whole or in part of Rental Payments pursuant to the Lease Agreement. If the City determines that such damage or destruction will not result in a substantial interference with the City’s right to the use or occupancy of the Property and an abatement in whole or in part of Rental Payments pursuant to the Lease Agreement, the City shall, as expeditiously as possible, continuously and diligently prosecute or cause to be prosecuted the repair or replacement thereof. If the City determines that such damage or destruction will result in a substantial interference with the City’s right to the use or occupancy of the Property and an abatement in whole or in part of Rental Payments pursuant to the Lease Agreement, then the City shall (i) apply sufficient funds from the Net Proceeds of any insurance (other than Net Proceeds of rental interruption insurance), including the proceeds of any self-insurance, received on account of such damage or destruction and other legally available funds to the repair or replacement of the Property or the portions thereof that have been damaged or destroyed to the condition that existed prior to such damage or destruction, provided that, within 40 days of the occurrence of the event of damage or destruction, the City delivers to the Trustee a Written Certificate of the City (A) certifying that the City has sufficient funds to so complete such repair or replacement of the Property or such portions thereof and identifying such funds and the location thereof, and (B) stating that such funds will not be used for any other purpose until such repair or replacement is completed, (ii ) within 60 days of the occurrence of the event of damage or destruction, cause alternate real property to be substituted for all or a portion of the Property pursuant to the Lease Agreement, or (iii) within 60 days of the occurrence of the event of damage or destruction, deliver sufficient funds from such Net Proceeds and other legally available funds to the Trustee for the application to the extraordinary redemption (A) of all of the Outstanding Bonds, or (B) of such portion of the Outstanding Bonds as shall result in (I) the annual fair rental value of the Property after such damage or destruction, and after any repairs or replacements made as a result of such damage or destruction, as certified in a Written Certificate of the City delivered to the Page 432 of 501 -15- 4125-9942-2535.12 Trustee, being at least equal to 105% of the maximum amount of the principal (including principal due and payable by reason of mandatory sinking fund redemption of such Bonds) of and interest on the Bonds coming due in the then current Rental Period or any subsequent Rental Period, and (II) the fair replacement value of the Property after such damage or destruction, and after any repairs or replacements made as a result of such damage or destruction, as certified in a Written Certificate of the City delivered to the Trustee, being at least equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding. See [Appendix C— “SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—THE LEASE AGREEMENT—Abatement,” “—Additions to the Property; Substitution or Release of the Property” and “—Damage or Destruction.”] Remedies Upon Default If the City defaults under the Lease Agreement, the Authority may enforce its remedies thereunder. In general, remedies under the Lease Agreement include the right (i) to maintain such Lease Agreement in full force and effect and receive all rent from the City as it becomes due or re-enter and re-let the Leased Property, or (ii) to terminate such Lease Agreement and the City’s right of possession and recover damages recoverable at law. The Indenture provides that any Holder of the Bonds may by legal action compel the Authority to carry out its duties under the Lease Agreement, including maintaining and enforcing its rights under the Lease Agreement. See Appendix C—“SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS—INDENTURE” hereto. An abatement of rental in accordance with the terms of the Lease Agreement due to damage, destruction or eminent domain is not an event of default under the Lease Agreement and none of the foregoing remedies is available. See “RISK FACTORS— Abatement” herein. The Bonds are not subject to acceleration under any circumstances or for any reason, including without limitation upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Defaul t under the Indenture. See “RISK FACTORS—No Acceleration Upon Default” herein. RISK FACTORS The following factors, along with the other information in this Official Statement, should be considered by potential investors in evaluating purchase of the Bonds. However, they do not purport to be an exhaustive listing of risks and other considerations which may be relevant to an investment in the Bonds. In addition, the order in which the following factors are presented is not intended to reflect the relative importance of any such risks. No Pledge of Revenues or Lien on Assets of the City The Base Rental Payments are not secured by any pledge of or lien on taxes or other revenue of the City, but are payable from all funds lawfully available to the City. The City has the capacity to enter into other obligations which may constitute additional charges against its revenues. In the event the City’s revenue sources are less than its total obligations, the City could choose to fund other obligations before making Base Rental Payments. The same result could occur if, because of State constitutional limits on expenditures, the City is not permitted to appropriate and spend all of its available revenues. The obligation of the City to pay the Base Rental Payments does not constitute an obligation of the City for which the City is obligated to levy or pledge any form of taxation or for which the City has levied or pledged any form of taxation. The obligation of the City to pay Base Rental Payments and additional payments does not constitute a debt of the City, the State or any of its political subdivisions, and does not constitute an indebtedness within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limitation or restriction. Page 433 of 501 -16- 4125-9942-2535.12 Although the Lease Agreement does not create a pledge, lien or encumbranc e upon the funds of the City, the City is obligated under the Lease Agreement to make Base Rental Payments from any source of legally available funds (subject to certain exceptions and conditions), and the City has covenanted in the Lease Agreement to take such action as may be necessary to include all Base Rental Payments in its annual budgets and annually to appropriate amounts necessary to make such Base Rental Payments . The City is also liable for other obligations payable from any source of legally available funds. See “—Additional Obligations of the City” below, “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION” herein and Appendix A— “AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022” hereto. Additional Obligations of the City The City has a significant amount of obligations payable from its general fund, including but not limited to debt obligations, pension obligations, lease obligations and other obligations related to post employment retirement benefits as well as certain other liabilities (the “General Fund”). See Appendix A— “AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022” hereto. The Lease Agreement does not prohibit the City from incurring additional lease and other obligations payable from the City’s General Fund. In that regard, the City may, from time to time, incur various General Fund obligations to finance public improvements, which may also include lease obligations payable from its General Fund. To the extent such additional obligations are incurred by the City, the funds available to make Base Rental Payments may be decreased. Abatement The Base Rental Payments due under the Lease Agreement shall be abated proportionately during any period in which by reason of any damage or destruction (other than by eminent domain) there is substantial interference with the use and occupancy by the City of the Leased Property by the City, in the proportion in which the initial cost of that portion of the Leased Property rendered unusable bears to the initial cost of the whole of the Leased Property. Such abatement shall commence with such damage or destruction and end when use and occupancy or possession is restored. The Base Rental Payments due under the Lease Agreement shall also be abated during any period in which by reason of eminent domain there is substantial interference with the use and occupancy by the City of the Leased Property by the City. It is not possible to predict the circumstances under which such an abatement of rental may occur . In addition, there is no statute, case or other law specifying how such an abatement of rental should be measured. For example, at the time of such abatement, the value of the Leased Property may be substantially higher or lower than its value at the time of issuance of the Bonds. Such a circumstance could have an effect on the amount of rental abated under the Lease Agreement and could have a material adverse effect on the security for and payment of the Bonds. If damage, destruction or eminent domain proceedings with respect to the Leased Propert y results in abatement of the Base Rental Payments related to such Leased Property and if such abated Base Rental Payments, if any, together with moneys from rental interruption or use and occupancy insurance (in the event of any insured loss due to damage or destruction), eminent domain proceeds, if any, and moneys available in the Payment Fund are insufficient to make all payments of principal of and interest on the Bonds during the period that the Leased Property is being replaced, repaired or reconstructed, then all or a portion of such payments of principal and interest may not be made. Under the Lease Agreement and the Indenture, no remedy is available to the Holders of the Bonds for nonpayment under such circumstances. Page 434 of 501 -17- 4125-9942-2535.12 Risk of Uninsured Loss The City covenants under the Lease Agreement to maintain certain insurance policies on the Leased Property. See “SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE BONDS” herein. These insurance policies do not cover all types of risk. For example, the City is not required to maintain earthquake insurance. The Leased Property could be damaged or destroyed due to an earthquake or other casualty for which the Leased Property is uninsured. Additionally, a portion of the Leased Property could be the subject of an eminent domain proceeding. Under these circumstances, an abatement of Base Rental Payments could occur and could continue indefinitely. Moreover, there can be no assurance that the providers of the City’s liability and rental interruption insurance, among others, will in all events be able or willing to make payments under the respective policies for such loss should a claim be made under such policies. There can also be no assurances that amounts received as proceeds from insurance of the Leased Property will be sufficient to redeem the Bonds. Under the Lease Agreement, the City may obtain certain types of casualty insurance which provide for such a deductible as the City deems adequate and prudent. Should the City be unable to meet such deductible expenses, the availability of General Fund revenues to make Base Rental Payments will be correspondingly affected. Limited Recourse on Default If the City defaults on its obligations to make Base Rental Payments with respect to the Leased Property, the Trustee, as assignee of the Authority, may (subject to the restrictions described in the Lease Agreement) retain the Lease Agreement and hold the City liable for all Base Rental Payments on an annual basis and will have the right to re-enter and re-let the Leased Property. In the event such re-letting occurs, the City would be liable for any resulting deficiency in Base Rental Payments. Alternatively, the Trustee may terminate the Lease Agreement with respect to the Leased Property and proceed against the City to recover damages pursuant to the Lease Agreement. However, the Trustee may not sell or foreclose the Leased Property to obtain money for payment of the principal of or interest on the Bonds in the event of a default. See also “—No Acceleration Upon Default” below. Due to the specialized nature of the Leased Property, no assurance can be given that the Trustee will be able to re-let any portion of the Leased Property so as to provide rental income sufficient to make principal and interest payments with respect to the Bonds in a timely manner, and the Trustee is not empowered to sell the Leased Property for the benefit of the Owners of the Bonds. In addition, due to the governmental function of the Leased Property, it is not certain whether a court would permit the exercise of the remedies of repossession and re-letting with respect thereto. Any suit for money damages would be subject to limitations on legal remedies against public agencies in the State, including a limitation on enforcement of judgments against funds needed to serve the public welfare and interest. No Acceleration Upon Default If the City defaults on its obligations to make Base Rental Payments, the Trustee may have limited ability to re-let the Leased Property so as to preserve the tax exempt nature of the interest on the Bonds. In the event of default, there is no remedy of acceleration of any Base Rental Payments which have not come due and payable in accordance with the Lease Agreement. The City will continue to be liable for lease payments as they become due and payable in accordance with the Lease Agreement if the Trustee does not terminate the Lease Agreement, and the Trustee is required to seek a separate judgment each year for that year’s defaulted Base Rental Payments. Any such suit for money damages would be subject to limitations on legal remedies against cities in California, including a limitation on enforcement of judgments against funds or property needed to serve the public welfare and interest. Page 435 of 501 -18- 4125-9942-2535.12 Bankruptcy The City and the Authority are considered “municipalities” and therefore are not subject to the involuntary procedures of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). However, pursuant to Chapter 9 of the Bankruptcy Code, the City or the Authority may seek voluntary protection from its creditors for purposes of adjusting its debts. A City or Authority bankruptcy petition could have a material adverse effect on the payment of the Bonds. The following paragraphs present a discussion of certain potential consequences surrounding a potential City or Authority bankruptcy. It is not intended to be an exhaustive discussion of all potential adverse consequences or potential outcomes. In the event the City were to become a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, the City would be entitled to all of the protective provisions of the Bankruptcy Code as applicable in a Chapter 9 proceeding. Among the adverse effects of such a bankruptcy might be: (1) the application of the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, which, until relief is granted, would prevent collection of payments from the City or the commencement of any judicial or other action for the purpose of r ecovering or collecting a claim against the City; (2) the avoidance of preferential transfers occurring during the relevant period prior to the filing of a bankruptcy petition; (3) the existence of unsecured or court-approved secured debt which may have a priority of payment superior to that of Holders of the Bonds; and (4) the possibility of the adoption of a plan for the adjustment of the City’s debt (a “Plan”) without the consent of the Trustee or the Holders of the Bonds, which Plan may restructure, delay, compromise or reduce the amount of any claim of the Holders if the bankruptcy court finds that the Plan is fair and equitable. In addition, if the Lease Agreement were considered a true lease under the Bankruptcy Code, the City could either reject the Lease Agreement or assume the Lease Agreement despite any provision of the Lease Agreement which makes the bankruptcy or insolvency of the City an event of default thereunder. In the event the City rejects the Lease Agreement, the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders of the Bonds, would have a pre-petition claim that may be limited under the Bankruptcy Code and treated in a manner under a Plan over the objections of the Trustee or the Holders of the Bonds. Moreover, such rejection would terminate the Lease Agreement and the City’s obligation to make payments thereunder. If the Lease Agreement were instead considered a secured financing transaction under the Bankruptcy Code, it is possible that the Holders would have a secured claim for the value of the leasehold interest (as determined by the bankruptcy court) and an unsecured claim for any balance. The legal status of the Lease Agreement under the Bankruptcy Code is uncertain as there is currently no binding legal authority on the proper treatment of lease-leaseback transactions such as the one securing the Bonds. The Authority is a public agency and, like the City, is not subject to the involuntary procedures of the Bankruptcy Code. The Authority may also seek voluntary protection under Chapter 9 of the Bankruptcy Code. In the event the Authority were to become a debtor under the Bankruptcy Code, the Authority would be entitled to all of the protective provisions of the Bankruptcy Code as applicable in a Chapter 9 proceeding. Such a bankruptcy could adversely affect the payments under the Indenture. Among the adverse effects might be: (1) the application of the automatic stay provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, which, until relief is granted, would prevent collection of payments from the Authority or the commencement of any judicial or other action for the purpose of recovering or collecting a claim against the Authority; (2) the avoidance of preferential transfers occurring during the relevant period prior to the filing of a bankruptcy petition; (3) the existence of unsecured or court-approved secured debt which may have priority of payment superior to that of the Holders of the Bonds; and (4) the possibility of the adoption of a plan for the adjustment of the Authority’s debt without the consent of the Trustee or all of the Holders of the Bonds, which plan may restructure, delay, compromise or reduce the amount of any claim of the Holders i f the bankruptcy court finds that the plan is fair and equitable. Page 436 of 501 -19- 4125-9942-2535.12 Bankruptcies in the City of Stockton, the City of San Bernardino and the City of Detroit have brought scrutiny to municipal securities. Specifically, in the City of San Bernardino bankruptcy, the Court held that in the event of a municipal bankruptcy, payments on pension obligation bonds were unsecured obligations and not entitled to the same priority of payments made to the related pension system. A variety of events including, but not limited to, additional rulings adverse to the interests of bond owners in the City of San Bernardino, the City of Stockton and the City of Detroit bankruptcy cases or additional municipal bankruptcies, could prevent or materially adversely affect the rights of Owners to receive payments on the Bonds in the event the City files for bankruptcy. Accordingly, in the event of bankruptcy, it is likely that Owners may not recover their principal and interest. Risk of Tax Audit; Loss of Tax Exemption The Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has an ongoing program of examining tax-exempt obligations to determine whether, in the view of the IRS, interest on such obligations is properly excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. It is possible that the Bonds or other tax-exempt obligations of the City may be selected for examination under such program. There is no assurance that an IRS examination of the Bonds or other tax-exempt obligations of the City will not adversely affect the market value of the Bonds. See “TAX MATTERS” herein. As discussed under the caption “TAX MATTERS,” in order to maintain the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of the interest on the Bonds, the City has covenanted in the Lease Agreement not to take any action, or fail to take any action, if such action or failure to take such action would adversely affect the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Bonds under Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”). Interest on the Bonds could become includable in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation retroactive to the date the Bonds were issued, as a result of acts or omissions of the City or the Authority in violation of the Code. Should such an event of taxability occur, the Bonds are not subject to early redemption and will remain outstanding to maturity or until prepaid under the optional redemption provisions of the Indenture. Limited Secondary Market As stated herein, investment in the Bonds poses certain economic risks which may not be appropriate for certain investors, and only persons with substantial financial resources who understand the risk of investment in the Bonds should consider such investment. There can be no guarantee that there will be a secondary market for purchase or sale of the Bonds or, if a secondary market exists, that the Bonds could be sold for any particular price. Hazardous Substances The existence or discovery of hazardous materials may limit the beneficial use of the Leased Property. In general, the owners and lessees of the Leased Property may be required by law to remedy conditions of such parcel relating to the release or threatened releases of hazardous substances . The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, sometimes referred to as “CERCLA” or the “Superfund Act,” is the most well -known and widely applicable of these laws, but State laws with regard to hazardous substances are also similarly stringent. Under many of these laws, the owner or lessee is obligated to remedy a hazardous substance condition on the property whether or not the owner or lessee had anything to do with creating or handling the hazardous substance. Further, it is possible that the beneficial use of the Leased Property may be limited in the future resulting from the current existence on the Leased Property of a substance currently classified as hazardous but which has not been released or the release of which is not presently threatened, or may arise in the Page 437 of 501 -20- 4125-9942-2535.12 future resulting from the current existence on the Leased Property of a substance not presently classified as hazardous but which may in the future be so classified. Further, such liabilities may arise not simply from the existence of a hazardous substance but from the method in which it is handled. All of these possibilities could significantly limit the beneficial use of the Leased Property. The City is unaware of the existence of hazardous substances on the Leased Property site which would materially interfere with the beneficial use thereof. Cyber Security The City, like many other public and private entities, relies on computer and other digital networks and systems to conduct its operations. As a recipient and provider of personal, private or other sensitive electronic information, the City is potentially subject to multiple cyber threats, including, without limitation, hacking, viruses, ransomware, malware and other attacks. No assurance can be given that the City’s efforts to manage cyber threats and attacks will be successful in all cases, or that any such attack will not materially impact the operations or finances of the City. For a description of the City’s cybersecurity policies and practices, see Appendix B – “CERTAIN INFORMATION REGARDING THE CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO – Cyber Security.” Natural Disasters and Other Events If a severe natural disaster occurred in or around the City, there could be substantial damage to and interference with the City’s right to use and occupy all or a portion of the Leased Property, which could result in abatement of Base Rental Payments. See “RISK FACTORS—Abatement” herein. The City has implemented the City’s General Plan Climate Adaptation and Safety Element updated in 2023 provides policies and programs to help reduce the risk associated with natural disasters and other events. However, the City is not required to maintain earthquake or flood insurance on the Leased Property. In addition, a severe natural disaster could require additional emergency response by the City and the City can give no assurances regarding the impact of such emergency response on the City’s operations and finances. The following describes certain potential natural disasters that may occur within the City. Earthquake. The City, like all southern California communities, may be subject to unpredictable seismic activity. The Los Osos Fault identified under the California Alquist -Priolo Fault Hazards Act, is adjacent to the City, with the main strand under the intersection of Los Osos Valley Road and Foothill Boulevard. Other known faults nearby the City have the capability to produce strong ground motion in the City. Seismic activity could lead to a reduction of assessed values in the City. In addition, an occurrence of severe seismic activity in the area of the Leased Property may result in substantial damage to and/or interference with the City’s right to use and occupy all or a portion of the Leased Property, leading to the abatement of Base Rental Payments. There is no requirement under the Lease Agreement that the City maintain earthquake insurance with respect to the Leased Property, and the City cannot provide any assurances that it will decide to obtain or continue to maintain earthquake insurance with respect to the Leased Property. The City relies on a combination of insurance and general reserves as well as the expectation that some disaster relief funds to address any resulting damage from seismic activity. There is no assurance that, in the event of a significant seismic event disaster relief funds and other sources would be available or sufficient for the repair or replacement of the Leased Property. Page 438 of 501 -21- 4125-9942-2535.12 Wildfire. In recent years, wildfires have caused extensive damage throughout the State. In some instances, entire neighborhoods have been destroyed. Several of the fires that occurred in recent years damaged or destroyed property in areas that were not previously considered to be at risk from such events. Some commentators believe that climate change will lead to even more frequent and more damaging wildfires in the future. The City of San Luis Obispo has experienced significant wildfires in the past including the 1985 “Las Pilitas Fire” which originated East of the City and burned into city limits. In more recent history, the most significant wildfire the city has encountered was the approximately 90-acre “Bridge Fire” in 2020 that occurred in the South Hills Open Space which geographically sits in the center of the city. Fortunately, no structures were damaged, or injuries sustained due to this fire. Flooding. Portions of the City are within 100-year flood plains, according to Federal Emergency Management Agency maps. Parts of the City are considered to be susceptible to flood events from either a major storm or a dam failure resulting from a significant earthquake or other event. Though the City does not believe that damage to nearby dams could directly cause damage to the Leased Property, the City cannot predict if any such damage to the dams would adversely affect the City’s financial condition, the value of the Leased Property, or the ability of the City to make the Base Rental Payments. For information about the City’s financial obligation with respect to certain nearby dams, see “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION – Recent Events.” Recent storm events in January and March 2023 caused widespread flooding and other storm- related damage within the City. For information regarding the effects of the recent storms, see “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION – Recent Events.” There is no requirement under the Lease Agreement that the City maintain flood insurance with respect to the Leased Property, and the City cannot provide any assurances that it will decide to obtain or continue to maintain flood insurance with respect to the Leased Property. Events of Force Majeure. Operation of the Leased Property may also be at risk from other events of force majeure, such as damaging storms, extreme drought, explosions, strikes, sabotage, riots and spills of hazardous substances, among other events. The City cannot predict what force majeure events may occur in the future. For additional information regarding the required insurance coverages under the Lease Agreement, See Appendix C – “SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS.” Environmental Focus and Climate Change Atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations have reached a level that guarantees substantial and unavoidable impacts for the foreseeable future. These impacts are expected to include, among other things, an increase in the frequency and severity of extreme weather events and may contribute to an increased incidence of wildfires in the City and elsewhere in the State. As the effects of climate change continue, it is expected that extreme weather events such as drought, wildfires, floods and heat waves will impact the City. Although the City is actively implementing a climate action plan as described in more detail in Appendix B, the City cannot predict the timing, extent, or severity of climate change and its impact on the City’s operations and finances. However, over time, the costs could be significant and could have a material effect on the City’s finances by requiring greater expenditures to respond to the effects of climate change . Also, additional actions to address climate change may be necessary and the City can give no assurances regarding the impact of such actions on the City’s operations and finances. Page 439 of 501 -22- 4125-9942-2535.12 Pandemic and Infectious Disease In March 2020, the World Health Organization and the President of the United States separately declared the outbreak of a respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) to be a public health emergency. On March 13, 2020, the Governor of California (the “Governor”) declared a state of emergency for the State of California because of the effects of COVID-19. Subsequently, in response to a rise in COVID-19 infections in the State, the Governor issued a number of executive orders intended to help limit the spread of COVID-19 and mitigate injury and the loss of life, including limitations imposed on business operations, social gatherings, travel, and other activities. As of February 28, 2023, the Governor terminated the state of emergency relating to COVID-19 and there are currently no COVID-19 related operating limits imposed by executive order of the Governor for any business or other establishment in the State. Like other public agencies, the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the City’s operations and budget. To address the economic uncertainty brought on by the pandemic, the City immediately implemented its Fiscal Health Contingency Plan (FHCP), triggering a number of measures to control expenditures. Similar to other agencies, the City modified its operations by transitioning to remote work where possible, and modified delivery of services to the public. Modified service delivery included but was not limited to: enhanced cleaning of facilities, increased wastewater testing to assist the County in determining the prevalence of COVID in certain areas, moratoriums on water shutoffs due to non-payment, deferral of parking rate increases, and provision of fare-free rides on the City’s fixed route transit service. For information concerning the financial effect of COVID-19 on the City, see “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION – Recent Developments.” A continued spread of COVID-19 or future outbreak of COVID-19 or variants thereof or another infectious disease, or the fear of any such outbreak, and measures taken to prevent or reduce it, could adversely impact State, national and global economic activities and, accordingly, adversely impact the financial condition and operations of the City, and the extent of impact could be material. The City cannot predict the duration of any pandemic, any reinstatement or expansion of stay-at-home orders and travel or other restrictions and warnings, or what impact those orders would have on the City’s revenues. Additionally, the City cannot predict what further impact any pandemic may have on the City’s general financial condition or operations, or the assessed values of property within the City. Dependence on State for Certain Revenues Nearly half of the City’s revenues are collected and disbursed by the State (such as sales tax and motor-vehicle license fees) or allocated in accordance with State law (most importantly, property taxes). As a result, State budget decisions can have an impact on City finances. In the event of a material economic downturn in the State, there can be no assurance that any resulting revenue shortfalls to the State will not reduce revenues to local governments (including the City) or shift financial responsibility for programs to local governments as part of the State’s efforts to address any such related State financial difficulties. Information about the State budget is regularly available at various State-maintained websites. Text of proposed and adopted budgets may be found at the website of the Department of Finance, www.dof.ca.gov, under the heading “California Budget.” An impartial analysis of the budget is posted by the Office of the Legislative Analyst at www.lao.ca.gov. In addition, various State of California official statements, many of which contain a summary of the current and past State budgets, may be found at the website of the State Treasurer, www.treasurer.ca.gov. The information referred to is prepared by the respective State agency maintaining each website, and neither the Authority nor the City takes responsibility for the continued accuracy of these internet addresses or for the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of information posted there, and such information is not incorporated herein by these references. Page 440 of 501 -23- 4125-9942-2535.12 Changes in Law There can be no assurance that the electorate of the State will not at some future time adopt additional initiatives or that the Legislature will not enact legislation that will amend the laws or the Constitution of the State resulting in a reduction of the General Fund revenues of the City and, consequently, having an adverse effect on the security for the Bonds. City Pension Benefit Liability Many factors influence the amount of the City’s pension benefit liability, including, without limitation, inflationary factors, changes in statutory provisions of applicable law, changes in the levels of benefits provided or in the contribution rate of the City, increases or decreases in the number of covered employees, changes in actuarial assumptions or methods and differences between actual and anticipated investment experience of the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (“CalPERS”). Any of these factors could give rise to additional liability of the City to CalPERS as a result of which the City would be obligated to make additional payments to CalPERS over the amortization schedule for full funding of the City’s obligations to CalPERS. In 2017, CalPERS made some significant policy changes to address unfunded liabilities systemwide. These policy changes significantly increased required pension contributions for member agencies and in 2018, the City Council adopted Fiscal Health Response Plan (FHRP) to provide a framework for responding to the long-term fiscal impacts of the CalPERS policy changes. The FHRP has enabled the City to make $16.6 million in additional discretionary payments to expedite paydown of its unfunded pension liability. The City expects its pension benefit liability to increase in future years as a result of general market conditions which have significantly impacted CalPERS investments, resulting in a -7.5% return in FY 2021-22. See also “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION— Employee Retirement System” herein. No Liability of Authority to the Owners Except as expressly provided in the Indenture, the Authority shall not have any obligation or liability to the Owners of the Bonds with respect to the payment when due of the Base Rental Payments by the City, or with respect to the performance by the City of other agreements and covenants required to be performed by it contained in the Lease Agreement or the Indenture, or with respect to the performance by the Trustee of any right or obligation required to be performed by it contained in the Indenture. CERTAIN LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS While the Lease Agreement does not obligate the City to impose any new taxes or increase any existing taxes to pay Base Rental Payments, limitations on the City’s ability to impose taxes or appropriate funds could adversely affect the City’s ability to raise and spend revenues. In such event, City funds which would otherwise be available absent such limitation might not be available to make Base Rental Payments. The following is a description of certain legal limitations related to the City’s ability to impose taxes or appropriate funds. Article XIIIA of the State Constitution Section 1(a) of Article XIIIA of the State Constitution limits the maximum ad valorem tax on real property to 1% of full cash value (as defined in Section 2 of Article XIIIA), to be collected by counties and apportioned according to law. Section 1(b) of Article XIIIA provides that the 1% limitation does not apply to ad valorem taxes to pay interest or redemption charges on (1) indebtedness approved by the voters prior to July 1, 1978 or (2) any bonded indebtedness for the acquisition or improvement of real property approved on or after July 1, 1978, by two-thirds of the votes cast by the voters voting on the proposition. Section 2 Page 441 of 501 -24- 4125-9942-2535.12 of Article XIIIA defines “full cash value” to mean “the County assessor’s valuation of real property as shown on the 1975-76 tax bill under full cash value or, thereafter, the appraised value of real property when purchased, newly constructed, or a change in ownership has occurred after the 1975 assessment.” The full cash value may be adjusted annually to reflect inflation at a rate not to exceed 2% per year, or to reflect a reduction in the consumer price index or comparable data for the area under taxing jurisdiction or reduced in the event of declining property value caused by substantial damage, destruction or other factors . Legislation enacted by the State Legislature to implement Article XIIIA provides that notwithstanding any other law, local agencies may not levy any ad valorem property tax except to pay debt service on indebtedness approved by the voters as described above. The voters of the State subsequently approved various measures which further amended Article XIIIA. One such amendment generally provides that the purchase or transfer of (i) real property between spouses or (ii) the principal residence and the first $1,000,000 of the full cash value of other real property between parents and children, do not constitute a “purchase” or “change of ownership” triggering reassessment under Article XIIIA. This amendment could serve to reduce the property tax revenues of the City. Other amendments permitted the State Legislature to allow persons over 55 or “severely disabled homeowners” who sell their residence and buy or build another of equal or lesser value within two years in the same city, to transfer the old residence’s assessed value to the new residence. In the November 1990 election, the voters approved an amendment of Article XIIIA to permit the State Legislature to exclude from the definition of “new construction” seismic retrofitting improvements or improvements utilizing earthquake hazard mitigation technologies constructed or installed in existing buildings after November 6, 1990. Article XIIIA has also been amended to permit reduction of the “full cash value” base in the event of declining property values caused by damage, destruction or other factors, provided that there would be no increase in the “full cash value” base in the event of reconstruction of property damaged or destroyed in a disaster. County assessors may “recapture” the reduced assessed valuation of such property up to its pre- decline value, depending on the county assessor’s measurement of the value subsequently restored to such property. Article XIIIB of the State Constitution Article XIIIB of the State Constitution limits the annual appropriations of the State and of any city, county, school district, authority or other political subdivision of the State to the level of appropriations for the prior Fiscal Year, as adjusted for changes in the cost of living, population and services for which the fiscal responsibility is shifted to or from the governmental entity. The “base year” for establishing this appropriations limit is the 1978-79 fiscal year, and the limit is adjusted annually to reflect changes in population, consumer prices and certain increases or decreases in the cost of services provided by the applicable public agency. Appropriations of an entity of local government subject to Article XIIIB generally include authorizations to expend during a Fiscal Year the proceeds of taxes levied by or for the entity and the proceeds of State subventions, exclusive of certain State subventions, refunds of taxes, and benefit payments from retirement, unemployment insurance and disability insurance funds. “Proceeds of taxes” include, but are not limited to, all tax revenues, most State subventions and the proceeds to the local governmental entity from (1) regulatory licenses, user charges, and user fees (to the extent that such proceeds exceed the cost reasonably borne by such entity) and (2) the investment of tax revenues. Article XIIIB provides that if a governmental entity’s revenues in any year exceed the amounts permitted to be spent, the excess must be returned by revising tax rates or fee schedules over the subsequent two years. Page 442 of 501 -25- 4125-9942-2535.12 Article XIIIB does not limit the appropriation of moneys to pay debt service on indebtedness existing or authorized as of January 1, 1979, or for bonded indebtedness approved thereafter by a vote of the electors of the issuing entity at an election held for that purpose. Furthermore, in 1990, Article XIIIB was amended to exclude from the appropriations limit “all qualified capital outlay projects, as defined by the Legislature” from proceeds of taxes. The Legislature has defined “qualified capital outlay project” to mean a fixed asset (including land and construction) with a useful life of 10 or more years and a value which equals or exceeds $100,000. As a result of this amendment, the appropriations to pay the lease payments on the City’s long-term General Fund lease obligations (including the Base Rental Payments) are generally excluded from the City’s appropriations limit. Articles XIIIC and XIIID of the State Constitution On November 5, 1996, the voters of the State approved Proposition 218, known as the “Right to Vote on Taxes Act.” Proposition 218 adds Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the California Constitution and contains a number of interrelated provisions affecting the ability of the City to levy and collect both existing and future taxes, assessments, fees and charges. Article XIIIC requires that all new local taxes be submitted to the electorate before they become effective. Taxes for general governmental purposes of the City require a majority vote and taxes for specific purposes, even if deposited in the City’s General Fund, require a two-thirds vote. Further, any general purpose tax which the City imposed, extended or increased without voter approval after December 31, 1994 may continue to be imposed only if approved by a majority vote in an election held within two years after November 5, 1996. The voter approval requirements of Article XIIIC reduce the flexibility of the City to raise revenues for the General Fund, and no assurance can be given that the City will be able to impose, extend or increase such taxes in the future to meet increased expenditure needs. Article XIIID also adds several provisions making it generally more difficult for local agencies to levy and maintain fees, charges, and assessments for municipal services and programs. These provisions include, among other things, (i) a prohibition against assessments which exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred on a parcel, (ii) a requirement that assessments must confer a “special benefit,” as defined in Article XIIID, over and above any general benefits conferred, (iii) a majority protest procedure for assessments which involves the mailing of notice and a ballot to the record owner of each affected parcel, a public hearing and the tabulation of ballots weighted according to the proportional financial obligation of the affected party, and (iv) a prohibition against fees and charges which are used for general governmental services, including police, fire or library services, where the service is available to the public at large in substantially the same manner as it is to property owners. Article XIIID conditions the imposition or increase of any “fee” or “charge” upon there being no written majority protest after a required public hearing and, for fees and charges other than for sewer, water or refuse collection services, voter approval. Article XIIID defines “fee” or “charge” to mean levies (other than ad valorem or special taxes or assessments) imposed by a local government upon a parcel or upon a person as an incident of the ownership or tenancy of real property, including a user fee or charge for a “property-related service.” One of the requirements of Article XIIID is that before a property related fee or charge may be imposed or increased, a public hearing upon the proposed fee or charge must be held and mailed notice sent to the record owner of each identified parcel of land upon which the fee or charge is proposed for imposition. In the public hearing, if written protests of the proposed fee or charge are presented by a majority of the owners of affected identified parcel(s), an agency may not impose the fee or charge. Article XIIIC also removes limitations on the initiative power in matters of reducing or repealing local taxes, assessments, fees or charges. No assurance can be given that the voters of the City will not, in the future, approve an initiative or initiatives which reduce or repeal local taxes, assessments, fees or Page 443 of 501 -26- 4125-9942-2535.12 charges currently comprising a substantial part of the City’s General Fund. If such repeal or reduction occurs, the City’s operations could be adversely affected. The City believes its fees, charges, assessments and taxes are in compliance with Articles XIIIC and XIIID. Proposition 22 In November 2010, the voters of the State adopted Proposition 22 (“Proposition 22”), which prohibits the State, even during a period of severe fiscal hardship, from delaying the distribution of tax revenues for transportation, redevelopment, or local government projects and services and prohibits fuel tax revenues from being loaned for cash–flow or budget balancing purposes to the State general fund or any other State fund. It further prevents the State from temporarily shifting property taxes from cities, counties and special districts to schools and community college districts through the Education Revenue Augmentation Fund, a shift that resulted in diversion of City property taxes periodically since Fiscal Year 1992-93 until the passage of Proposition 22. Proposition 26 On November 2, 2010, the voters of the State approved Proposition 26 (“Proposition 26”), which revises certain provisions of Articles XIIIA and XIIIC of the California Constitution. Proposition 26 re- categorizes many State and local fees as taxes, requires local governments to obtain two–thirds voter approval for taxes levied by local governments, and requires the State to obtain the approval of two–thirds of both houses of the State Legislature to approve State laws that increase taxes. Furthermore, pursuant to Proposition 26, any increase in a fee beyond the amount needed to provide the specific service or benefit is deemed to be a tax and the approval thereof will require a two-thirds vote. In addition, for State-imposed charges, any tax or fee adopted after January 1, 2010, with a majority vote which would have required a two-thirds vote if Proposition 26 were effective at the time of such adoption is repealed as of November 2011 absent the re-adoption by the requisite two-thirds vote. Proposition 26 amends Article XIIIC of the State Constitution to state that a “tax” means a levy, charge or exaction of any kind imposed by a local government, except: (1) a charge imposed for a specific benefit conferred or privilege granted directly to the payor that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of conferring the benefit or granting the privilege; (2) a charge imposed for a specific government service or product provided dire ctly to the payor that is not provided to those not charged, and which does not exceed the reasonable costs to the local government of providing the service or product; (3) a charge imposed for the reasonable regulatory costs to a local government for issuing licenses and permits, performing investigations, inspections and audits, enforcing agricultural marketing orders, and the administrative enforcement and adjudication thereof; (4) a charge imposed for entrance to or use of local government property or the purchase, rental, or lease of local government property; (5) a fine, penalty, or other monetary charge imposed by the judicial branch of government or a local government as a result of a violation of law, including late payment fees, fees imposed under administrative citation ordinances, parking violations, etc.; (6) a charge imposed as a condition of property development; or (7) assessments and property related fees imposed in accordance with the provisions of Article XIIID. Fees, charges and payments that are made pursuant to a voluntary contract that are not “imposed by a local government” are not considered taxes and are not covered by Proposition 26. Proposition 26 applies to any levy, charge or exaction imposed, increased, or extended by local government on or after November 3, 2010. Accordingly, fees adopted prior to that date are not subject to the measure until they are increased or extended or if it is determined that an exemption applies. Page 444 of 501 -27- 4125-9942-2535.12 If the local government specifies how the funds from a proposed local tax are to be used, the approval will be subject to a two–thirds voter requirement. If the local government does not specify how the funds from a proposed local tax are to be used, the approval will be subject to a 50% voter requirement. Proposed local government fees that are not subject to Proposition 26 are subject to the approval of a majority of the governing body. In general, proposed property charges will be subject to a majority vote of approval by the governing body although certain proposed property charges will also require approval by a majority of property owners. Proposition 62 A statutory initiative (“Proposition 62”) was adopted by the voters of the State at the November 4, 1986 General Election which (1) requires that any tax for general governmental purposes imposed by local governmental entities be approved by resolution or ordinance adopted by two-thirds vote of the governmental agency’s legislative body and by a majority of the electorate of the governmental entity, (2) requires that any special tax (defined as taxes levied for other than general governmental purposes) imposed by a local governmental entity be approved by a two-thirds vote of the voters within that jurisdiction, (3) restricts the use of revenues from a special tax to the purposes or for the service for which the special tax was imposed, (4) prohibits the imposition of ad valorem taxes on real property by local governmental entities except as permitted by Article XIIIA, (5) prohibits the imposition of transaction taxes and sales taxes on the sale of real property by local governmental entities and (6) requires that any tax imposed by a local governmental entity on or after March 1, 1985 be ratified by a majority vote of the electorate within two years of the adoption of the initiative or be terminated by November 15, 1988. Following its adoption by the voters, various provisions of Proposition 62 were declared unconstitutional at the appellate court level. On September 28, 1995, however, the California Supreme Court, in Santa Clara City Local Transportation Authority v. Guardino, upheld the constitutionality of the portion of Proposition 62 requiring a two-thirds vote in order for a local government or district to impose a special tax, and, by implication, upheld a parallel provision requiring a majority vote in order for a local governmental or district to impose any general tax. The Santa Clara decision did not address the question of whether or not it should be applied retroactively. In response to the Santa Clara decision, the California Legislature adopted Assembly Bill 1362, which provided that the Santa Clara decision should apply only prospectively to any tax that was imposed or increased by an ordinance or resolution adopted after December 14, 1995. Assembly Bill 1362 was vetoed by the Governor, hence the application of the Santa Clara decision on a retroactive basis remains unclear. Proposition 62, as an initiative statute, does not have the same level of authority as a constitutional initiative, but is analogous to legislation adopted by the State Legislature, except that it may be amended only by a vote of the State’s electorate. However, Proposition 218, as a constitutional amendment and supersedes many of the provisions of Proposition 62. The City does not believe that it imposes any tax or fee which is subject to the provisions of Proposition 62. Unitary Property AB 454 (Chapter 921, Statutes of 1987) provides that revenues derived from most utility property assessed by the State Board of Equalization (“Unitary Property”), commencing with the fiscal year ended June 30, 1989, will be based on a uniform rate within each county and allocated as follows: (a) each jurisdiction will receive up to 102% of its prior year State assessed revenue; and (b) if county wide revenues Page 445 of 501 -28- 4125-9942-2535.12 generated from Unitary Property are less than the previous year’s revenues or greater than 102% of the previous year’s revenues, each jurisdiction will share the burden of the shortfall or excess revenues by a specified formula. This provision applies to all Unitary Property except railroads, whose valuation will continue to be allocated to individual tax rate areas. The provisions of AB 454 do not constitute an elimination of the assessment of any State assessed properties nor a revision of the methods of assessing utilities by the State Board of Equalization. Generally, AB 454 allows valuation growth or decline of Unitary Property to be shared by all jurisdictions in a county. Future Initiatives Articles XIIIA, XIIIB, XIIIC and XIIID and Propositions 22, 26, and 62 were each adopted as measures that qualified for the ballot pursuant to the State’s initiative process . From time to time other initiative measures could be adopted, further affecting the City’s revenues or the City’s ability to expend revenues. THE AUTHORITY The San Luis Obispo Public Financing Authority was established pursuant to a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement dated September 8, 2014, by and between the City and the Parking Authority in accordance with provisions of the California Joint Exercise of Powers Act. The Authority was created for the purpose of providing financing for public capital improvements of the City and the Parking Authority. The Authority has no independent staff and consequently will be dependent upon the City’s officers and employees to administer the Bonds on its behalf. The Governing Board of the Authority is comprised of the members of the City Council of the City. THE CITY The City is a charter city, incorporated on February 19, 1856 and chartered on May 1, 1876 under the laws of the State of California. The City is located on the central coast of California, about 200 miles northwest of Los Angeles and 235 miles southeast of San Francisco. The City is the county seat of the County, and had a population estimated at 47,788 as of January 1, 2023. The City is the largest city in the County. The City operates under a council-mayor-city manager form of government. City Council members are elected at large for staggered four-year terms; the Mayor serves a two-year term. The City Manager, the City Attorney, and all advisory boards, committees and commissions are appointed by the City Council. The City Manager serves as the administrative head of the City, and is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the City staff, implementing the policies of the City Council. Current City Council members are: Member Term Expires Erica A. Stewart (Mayor) 12/2024 Jan Marx (Vice Mayor) 12/2024 Emily Francis 12/2026 Andy Pease 12/2024 Michelle Shoresman 12/2026 The City is a “full-service” city, providing public safety, public utilities, transportation, leisure, cultural, social and community development services to its residents.

CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION Budgetary Process The City of San Luis Obispo uses a two-year Financial Plan and budgetary process that emphasizes long-range planning and effective program management. The City’s two-year Financial Plan includes the integration of Council goal-setting into the budgetary process and the use of formal policies and measurable objectives. The Financial Plan includes operating budgets for two years and a Capital Improvement Plan (the “CIP”) covering five years. Under this multi-year approach, appropriations continue to be made annually; however, the Financial Plan is the foundation for preparing the budget for the second year. Additionally, unexpended operating appropriations from the first year may be carried over for specific purposes into the second year with the approval of the City Manager. Management Policies. The overall goal of the City’s Financial Plan is to establish and maintain effective management of the City’s financial resources. Key budget policies include: continuing basic services at current levels and adequately funding them; maintaining fund balances at levels which will protect the City from future uncertainties; estimating revenues at realistic levels; matching all current expenditures with current revenues; finding solutions to the City’s financial challenges which maintain and promote a quality community; maintaining the City’s traditional commitment to a strong General Fund; and complying with provisions of the State Constitution, City Charter, municipal code and sound fiscal policy. Key revenue policies include: maintaining a diversified and stable revenue base; setting enterprise fund rates at levels that fully recover the total cost of providing services; charging fees for General Fund programs in accordance with adopted user fee cost recovery goals; and ensuring that new development pays its fair share of the cost of constructing necessary community facilities. Financial Plan Policies. The Financial Plan includes formal policies that cover areas such as fund balance and reserves, investments (see “—City Investment Policy and Portfolio” herein), capital improvement management, debt management, capital financing, human resource management, and productivity. These policies, summarized below, are incorporated in full in the City’s Financial Plan. Fund Balance and Reserves. The City’s policy on fund balance and reserves requires the City to maintain a minimum fund balance of at least 20% of operating expenditures in the General Fund in order to adequately provide for economic uncertainties, contingencies for unseen needs and cash flow requirements. The City’s fund balance as a percent of General Fund operating expenditures was 23.27% and 23.5% as of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2022 respectively. The budgeted percentage of fund balance for the current year is 23.0% as of June 30, 2023. Revenue Stabilization Reserve – General Fund. In addition to the requirement to maintain a minimum fund balance of 20% of operating expenditures in the General Fund, with adoption of the 2023-25 Financial Plan, the City Council established a Revenue Stabilization Reserve which can be used to counteract any adverse revenue forecast during a period of economic uncertainty related to the City’s largest tax revenue sources. For 2023-25, the reserve has been set at $2 million. CalPERS and Unfunded Liabilities. With adoption of the 2023-25 Financial Plan, the City Council established a policy outlining the City’s long-term commitment to payment of its unfunded pension liability, additional discretionary payments (ADPs), and the needed prioritization to hold the shortened timeline. This policy provides guidance relative to the prioritized use of unassigned Page 447 of 501 -30- 4125-9942-2535.12 General Fund balance as follows: 1. Additional discretionary payments to CalPERS, 2. Infrastructure investments, and 3. Emerging Health and Safety needs of the community. The policy further notes the City’s commitment to ADPs to CalPERS and adding an annual inflator equal to increases in payroll whenever CalPERS reaches its discount rate or larger rates of return based on what is presented in the latest five-year forecast; and indicates that whenever CalPERS does not reach its adopted discount rate, the City commits to first use any unassigned fund balance to counteract the investment loss CalPERS experienced. Capital Improvement Management. The City’s policy on capital improvement management requires the City to prepare a CIP that balances existing facility maintenance with new projects that expand the City’s fixed assets. The CIP Review Committee, headed by the Assistant City Manager, provides governance of the CIP by evaluating and prioritizing capital projects based upon an established set of criteria to ensure alignment with Major City Goals, the General Plan, strategic growth objectives and needs for services provided within the City. The committee is responsible for assessing the City’s fiscal and staff capacity to deliver projects; recommending to the City Manager the projects and associated budgets that should be included in the biennial financial plan; considering requests for new projects that may be requested outside of financial plan development to address emergent needs; and evaluating the re-prioritization of projects as needs and conditions change in order to ensure consistency with project evaluation criteria, ability to deliver projects, and City priorities. The City’s Planning Commission also reviews the draft CIP for consistency with the City’s General Plan and provides its findings to the City Council before the CIP is adopted. With each two-year Financial Plan, the City prepares five- year CIP program recommendations for Council and Approval. The budget set forth in the 2023- 25 Financial Plan includes a two-year CIP investment of $183 million, and a planned CIP investment of $465 million over the five-year plan to maintain or replace existing assets and build new assets to address the needs of the community. Debt Management. The City’s policy on debt management requires the City to prepare an internal feasibility analysis for each long-term financing to review the impact on current and future budgets for debt service and operations, as well as the reliability of revenues to support debt service. Under this policy, the City is required to monitor its compliance with bond covenants and federal arbitrage regulations, will seek an investment grade rating on any direct debt and will seek credit enhancement where necessary for marketing purposes and cost-effectiveness. Capital Financing. The City’s policy on capital financing requires the City to consider debt financing only for one-time capital improvement projects and only when the project’s useful life will exceed the term of the financing and project revenues or specific resources will be sufficient to service the long-term debt. This policy provides further guidelines to evaluate the appropriateness of using pay-as-you-go financing versus long-term financing to fund capital improvements. Human Resource Management. The City’s policy on human resource management requires the City to fully appropriate the resources needed for authorized regular staffing and provides guidelines for the limited use of supplemental staff. The policy also provides criteria for the use of independent contractors and overtime management. Productivity. The City’s policy on productivity provides a process to review operations with the goal of delivering services in the most cost-effective manner possible. Productivity issues reviewed in the process include evaluating new technology and capital investments, developing skills and abilities of City employees and evaluating the ability of the private sector to perform the same level of service at a lower cost. Page 448 of 501 -31- 4125-9942-2535.12 Budget Process. The City Manager is responsible for preparing the budget and submitting it to the Council for approval. Although specific steps will vary from year to year, the following is an overview of the general approach used under the City’s two-year budgetary process: First Year. The Financial Plan process begins with a Council goal-setting session to determine major objectives to be accomplished over the next two years. These are incorporated into the budget instructions issued to the operating departments, who are responsible for submitting initial budget proposals. After these proposals are reviewed and a financial forecast is prepared, the City Manager issues the Preliminary Financial Plan for public comment. A series of study sessions and public hearings are then held leading to Council adoption of the budget by June 30. Second Year. Before the beginning of the second year of the two-year cycle, the Council reviews the progress during the first year, makes adjustments as necessary, and approves appropriations for the second Fiscal Year. Unspent operating appropriations from the first year may be carried over for specific purposes into the second year with the approval of the City Manager. Unspent operating program appropriations lapse at the end of the second year. Fiscal Year 2021- 22, was the first year of the two-year cycle. Mid-Year Reviews. The Council formally reviews the City’s financial condition and amends appropriations, if necessary, each February. Status Reports. On-line access to “up-to-date” financial information is provided to City staff. Comprehensive financial reports are prepared monthly to monitor the City’s fiscal condition. Additionally, more focused reports are issued monthly on transient occupancy tax and quarterly reports are prepared on the performance of investments and the portfolio’s overall compliance with the City’s investment policy. The status of major program objectives and goals, including CIP projects, is formally reported to the Council on an ongoing basis. Accounting. Budgets are prepared for each fund in accordance with its respective basis of accounting. All governmental funds have legally adopted budgets, including capital project funds. While budgets are prepared for the City’s capital project funds, the CIP projects generally span more than one year and are effectively controlled at the project level; accordingly, budgetary comparisons are not presented in the accompanying basic financial statements for capital projects. Administration. As provided under the City Charter, the City Council may amend or supplement the budget at any time after its adoption by majority vote of the Council. The City Manager has the authority to make or approve administrative adjustments to the budget as long as those changes will not have a significant policy impact nor affect the budgeted year-end fund balances. The level for which expenditures are not to exceed appropriations is at the fund level. Comparison of General Fund Budgets; Forecast. The table below sets forth a comparison of the City’s General Fund budgets for the current and prior fiscal years as well as a forecast through 2027-28.

Page 450 of 501 -33- 4125-9942-2535.12 Financial Statements Accounting Policies. The accounting policies of the City conform to generally accepted accounting principles. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) published its Statement No. 34 “Basic Financial Statements – and Management’s Discussion and Analysis – for State and Local Governments” on June 30, 1999. Statement No. 34 provides guidelines to auditors, state and local governments and special purpose governments such as school districts and public utilities, on new requirements for financial reporting for all governmental agencies in the United States. Generally, the basic financial statements and required supplementary information should include (i) Management’s Discussion and Analysis; (ii) financial statements prepared using the economic measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting and (ii) fund financial statements prepared using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual method of accounting and (iii) required supplementary information. Accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operation of each fund is accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts. The various funds are grouped into broad categories, as follows: Governmental Funds (General, Local Revenue Measure Sub-Fund, Special Revenue, Capital Projects and Debt Service), Proprietary Funds (Enterprise Funds, including the Water, Sewer, Parking, and Transit funds) and Fiduciary Funds (Custodial). Basis of Accounting. All Governmental Funds and Fiduciary Funds use the modified accrual basis of accounting. The Proprietary Funds use the accrual basis of accounting. Audited Financial Statements. The City’s most recent audited financial statements for the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2022, are attached as Appendix A to this Official Statement, which were prepared by the City and audited by Badawi & Associates, Certified Public Accountants, Berkeley, California (the “Auditor”). The financial statements should be read in their entirety. The City has not requested nor did the City obtain permission from the Auditor to include the audited financial statements as an appendix to this Official Statement. Accordingly, the Auditor has not performed any post -audit review of the financial condition or operations of the City or the General Fund. In addition, the Auditor has not reviewed this Official Statement.

Page 454 of 501 -37- 4125-9942-2535.12 Recent Developments Storm Response. Storm events in January and March 2023 caused widespread flooding and other storm-related damage. The City activated its Emergency Operations Center (“EOC”) and Department Operations Center (“DOC”) for both storm events, to coordinate response to the storms and protect public health and safety. The City expended approximately $4 million on initial storm response efforts including debris removal from the public right-of-way and waterways; emergency protective measures including repair to roads degraded by the storms, traffic control to restrict access to certain areas of the city, costs to support EOC and DOC operations; and staff time. The City is still assessing the costs associated with the recent storm events, but it is estimated that the costs could be significant. To fund storm response efforts, the City has forecasted use of $9 million from its operating reserve over the course of FY 2022-23 and FY 2023-24, and has programmed an additional $2.75 million into its Capital Improvement Plan for FY 2023- 24 to make permanent repairs to damaged areas. The City is contracting with E&Y (formerly Ernst & Young) to provide disaster recovery technical assistance in order to maximize reimbursement for storm related costs from FEMA and the California Office of Emergency Services and is working closely with both agencies to review damages and develop projects for consideration of reimbursement. With the effects of climate change, it is likely that these storm events will increase in severity and frequency. The City has implemented an emergency services plan to respond to and mitigate the effects of storms and flooding. See “RISK FACTORS – Natural Disasters” herein. Dam Repairs. The Nacimiento Dam and Reservoir (“Nacimiento”), located in the northern part of San Luis Obispo County (the “County”), was evaluated by the State Division of Safety of Dams, which classified Nacimiento as having an extremely high downstream hazard and mandated certain emergency repairs to be made to Nacimiento. The Monterey County Flood Control and Water Conservation District, the owner and operator of Nacimiento, has completed required repairs at no cost to the City of San Luis Obispo. Completed repairs permit the full operation of Nacimiento and water storage and delivery to the City. As part of the 1959 Nacimiento agreement, the County of San Luis Obispo holds a financial responsibility to share in costs associated with the costs to operate and maintain the San Antonio dam and spillway, despite not receiving water from this reservoir. The San Antonio dam and spillway were recently analyzed, and major repairs are necessary at this facility. As a recipient of Nacimiento water, the City may have a responsibility to share in the costs to repair the San Antonio Spillway. It is currently estimated that the City’s portion of the repair costs will be $6 million-$7 million. Dams at Whale Rock Reservoir (“Whale Rock”) and the Salinas Reservoir (“Salinas”) have undergone inspection to evaluate dam safety. Whale Rock Reservoir requires minor repairs to the underdrains of the spillway, with repairs estimated to cost approximately $350,000. The City is responsible for 55.05% of this cost and all other operating and capital costs at Whale Rock, with the State of California being responsible for the remaining 44.95%. Project construction is anticipated to be complete in October of 2023, prior to the beginning of the rainy season. Salinas Dam, which is currently owned by the United States Army Corps of Engineers, had a semi-quantitative risk assessment performed in 2019. This assessment resulted in a provisional Dam Safety Action Classification rating of Level IV (Low Urgency) and requires no immediate repairs under federal standards. If the dam was required to be transferred to a local entity, which is preferred by the Army Corps of Engineers, it would fall under the jurisdiction of the California Division of Safety of Dams and would require a retrofit to meet State seismic safety standards. If transferred to local ownership, it is envisioned that repair funding to bring the dam into compli ance with California state standards would be provided by the State or Federal entities. Covid-19 Response. Despite being economically affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the City ended FY 2019-20, FY 2020-21 and FY 2021-22 in a solid financial position, with most major revenue sources performing well or above initial downward adjusted assumptions. Page 455 of 501 -38- 4125-9942-2535.12 In FY 2020-21, the City invested $4,748,515 into COVID-19 relief efforts. These efforts were funded through a combination of local sales tax revenue, CARES Act funding and General Fund balance. Despite the unbudgeted costs related to COVID-19, the City ended FY 2020-21 with operating savings due to its strict adherence to cost saving measures identified in the FHCP. With adoption of the 2021-23 Financial Plan, the City Council established a Major City Goal of ‘Economic Recovery, Resiliency and Fiscal Sustainability’ which specifically called out efforts to support economic recovery from the pandemic. Fitch Ratings’ analysts have previously commended the City’s ability to respond to the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, “budget management at times of recovery is very strong, leaving the city well prepared to manage the current period of economic stress. The city engages in thorough and conservative long-term financial planning with a focus on maintaining structural budget balance, maintaining the city’s capital assets with minimal debt reliance, and proactive efforts to pay down its unfunded retirement liabilities above actuarially determined levels.” Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the federal government enacted certain relief acts, stimulus bills and funding measures to assist local governments impacted by COVID-19. To date, the City has received $17,218,963 in funding passed through various agencies, including US Treasury and the State. This amount does not include transit ARPA funding that has been allocated to the City but not drawn down. Taxes and Other Revenues Taxes and other sources of revenue received by the City are listed in the table below. Certai n general taxes currently imposed by the City are affected by Proposition 218.

Numbers may not add due to rounding. (1) The increase in Local Revenue Measure receipts in FY 2020-21 and FY 2021-22 is due to implementation of a new voter approved sales tax measure (Measure G-20, approved in November 2020) in April 2021. Measure G-20 increased the local sales tax from 0.5 percent to 1.5 percent. The increased tax rate will be in place until ended by voters. (2) The increase in TOT revenue in FY 2021-22 surpasses a recovery from earlier declines in TOT revenue caused by the Covid- 19 pandemic. See “CITY FINANCIAL INFORMATION—Transient Occupancy Tax” herein. (3) Prior to 2021-22, Cannabis tax was recorded in Sales and Use Tax – General. Sales and Use Taxes Sales and use taxes represent the largest source of tax revenue to the City. This section describes the current system for levying, collecting and distributing sales and use tax revenues in the State . See “CERTAIN LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS” herein for a description of certain limitations on the collection of taxes. State Sales and Use Tax Law. The City collects 1.0% of taxable sales in the City (minus certain administrative costs imposed by the CDTFA, as defined below) pursuant to the Bradley-Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax (the “Sales and Use Tax Law”). Local Revenue Measure. In November 2020, the qualified voters of the City passed Measure G-20 with 58.23% voter approval. Effective April 1, 2021, this 1 1/2 percent sales tax increased the local sales tax by 1 percent and replaced the 2014 local sales tax measure. Measure G-20 will be in place until ended by voters and there is no specific designation for these tax revenues. Sales Tax Rates. Currently, taxable transactions in the City are subject to the following sales and use tax, of which the City’s share is only a portion. The State collects and administers the tax, and makes distributions on taxes collected within the City, as follows. Page 457 of 501 -40- 4125-9942-2535.12 TABLE 5 CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO SALES TAX RATES AS OF JULY 1, 2023 State (General Fund) 3.6875% State (Fiscal Recovery Fund) 0.25 State (Local Revenue Fund) 1.5625 State (Local Public Safety Fund) 0.50 Local (City and County Operations) 1.00 Local (County transportation funds) 0.25 Local (Local Revenue Measure) 1.50 Total Sales Tax Rate 8.75% _______________ Source: California Department of Tax and Fee Administration Application of Sales Tax. Sales and use taxes are complementary taxes; when one applies, the other does not. In general, the statewide sales tax applies to gross receipts of retailers from the sale of tangible personal property in the State. The use tax is imposed on the purchase, for storage, use or other consumption in the State of tangible personal property from any retailer. The use tax generally applies to purchases of personal property from a retailer outside the State where the use will occur within the State. The Sales Tax is imposed upon the same transactions and items as the statewide sales tax and the statewide use tax. Certain transactions are exempt from the State sales tax, as identified by the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (“CDTFA” formerly the State Board of Equalization). Sales Tax Collection Procedures. Collection of the sales and use tax is administered by the CDTFA. According to the CDTFA, it distributes quarterly tax revenues to cities, counties and special districts using the following method: Using the prior year’s like quarterly tax allocation as a starting point, the CDTFA first eliminates nonrecurring transactions such as fund transfers, audit payments and refunds, and then adjusts for growth, in order to establish the estimated base amount. The CDTFA disburses 90% to each local jurisdiction in three monthly installments (advances) prior to the final computation of the quarter’s actual receipts. Ten percent is withheld as a reserve against unexpected occurrences that can affect tax collections (such as earthquakes, fire or other natural disaster) or distributions of revenue such as unusually large refunds or negative fund transfers. The first and second advances each represent 30% of the 90% distribution, while the third advance represents 40%. One advance payment is made each month, and the quarterly reconciliation payment (clean-up) is distributed in conjunction with the first advance for the subsequent quarter. Statements showing total collections, administrative costs, prior advances and the current advance are provided with each quarterly clean-up payment. Under the Sales and Use Tax Law, all sales and use taxes collected by the CDTFA under a contract with any city, city and county, redevelopment agency, or county are required to be transmitted by the CDTFA to such city, city and county, redevelopment agency, or county periodically as promptly as feasible. These transmittals are required to be made at least twice in each calendar quarter. Under its procedures, the CDTFA projects receipts of the sales and use tax on a quarterly basis and remits an advance of the receipts of the sales and use tax to the City on a monthly basis. The amount of each monthly advance is based upon the CDTFA’s quarterly projection. During the last month of each quarter, the CDTFA adjusts the amount remitted to reflect the actual receipts of the sales and use tax for the previous quarter. Page 458 of 501 -41- 4125-9942-2535.12 The CDTFA receives an administrative fee based on the cost of services provided by the CDTFA to the City in administering the City’s sales tax, which is deducted from revenue generated by the sales and use tax before it is distributed to the City. History of Taxable Transactions. The following table presents a summary of historic taxable sales reported within the City for calendar year 2017 through calendar year 2022 and the first quarter of 2023.

However, quick action by congress and substantial aid packages ranging from additional unemployment benefits, one-time payments to households, protection from rent and utility payments lead to an accumulation of wealth that resulted in continued purchasing power and consumption. The City invested heavily in supporting its business community by implementing parklets for outdoor dining, grants to small businesses, and various promotions to support local commerce. This resulted in taxable sales tracking slightly higher than projected at the end of the third quarter of FY 2020-21 and positioned the City well once vaccination rates increased and restrictions were lifted as seen with a significant increase in taxable sales in 2021. Property Taxes General. Property taxes represent the second largest source of tax revenue to the City. This section describes property tax levy and collection procedures and certain information regarding historical assessed values and major property tax payers in the City. See “CERTAIN LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS” herein. Property taxes have historically been the primary revenue source affected by voter initiatives and legislative actions. With approval of Proposition 13 in 1978, property tax revenues were curtailed when Page 459 of 501 -42- 4125-9942-2535.12 they were reduced by two-thirds and thereafter limited to 2% annual increases or the CPI, whichever was less. Levy and Collection. Property taxes are levied for each fiscal year on taxable real and personal property as of the preceding January 1. For assessment and collection purposes, property is classified either as “secured” or “unsecured” and is listed accordingly on separate parts of the assessment roll. The “secured roll” is that part of the assessment roll containing State-assessed public utilities property and real property the taxes on which are a lien sufficient, in the opinion of the County Assessor, to secure payment of the taxes. Other property is assessed on the “unsecured roll.” Property taxes on the secured roll are due in two installments, on November 1 and February 1 of each fiscal year, and become delinquent on December 10 and April 10, respectively. A penalty of 10% attaches immediately to all delinquent payments. Property on the secured roll with respect to which taxes are delinquent become tax defaulted on or about June 30 of the fiscal year. Such property may thereafter be redeemed by payment of a penalty of 1% per month to the time of redemption, plus costs and a redemption fee. If taxes are unpaid for a period of five years or more, the property is deeded to th e State and may be sold at public auction. Property taxes on the unsecured roll are due as of the January 1 lien dates and become delinquent on August 31. A 10% penalty attaches to delinquent unsecured taxes. If unsecured taxes are unpaid at 5:00 p.m. on October 31, an additional penalty of 1% attaches to them on the first day of each month until paid. The County has four ways of collecting delinquent unsecured personal property taxes: (1) a civil action against the taxpayer; (2) filing a judgment in the office of the County Clerk specifying certain facts in order to obtain a lien on certain property of the taxpayer; (3) filing a certificate of delinquency for record in the County Recorder’s office in order to obtain a lien on certain property of the taxpayer; and (4) seizure and sale of personal property, improvements or possessory interests belonging or assessed to the assessee. Beginning in 1978-79, Proposition 13 and its implementing legislation shifted the function of property tax allocation to the counties, except for levies to support prior voted debt, and prescribed how levies on county-wide property values are to be shared with local taxing entities within each county. Teeter Plan. San Luis Obispo County has implemented the Alternative Method of Distribution of Tax Levies and Collections and of Tax Sale Proceeds (the “Teeter Plan”), pursuant to Sections 4701 through 4717 of the State Revenue and Taxation Code, which applies to taxes levied for the City. Under the Teeter Plan, the County guarantees that the City will receive 100% of the taxes levied for it. Any delinquencies are borne by the County, which in return collects and retains all penalties and interest which accrue on the delinquent taxes. Consequently, the City’s tax receipts do not reflect any delinquencies. The Teeter Plan, once adopted by a county, remains in effect unless the County Board of Supervisors orders its discontinuance or unless, prior to the commencement of any fiscal year, the board of supervisors receives a petition for its discontinuance from two-thirds of the participating revenue districts in the county. A board of supervisors may, after holding a public hearing on the matter, discontinue the procedures under the Teeter Plan with respect to any tax levying agency in the county when delinquencies for taxes levied by that agency exceed 3%. Assessed Valuation. All property is assessed using full cash value as defined by Article XIIIA of the State Constitution. State law provides exemptions from ad valorem property taxation for certain classes of property such as churches, colleges, non-profit hospitals, and charitable institutions. See “CERTAIN LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS” herein. Page 460 of 501 -43- 4125-9942-2535.12 Future assessed valuation growth allowed under Article XIIIA (new construction, certain changes of ownership, 2% inflation) will be allocated on the basis of “situs” among the jurisdictions that serve the tax rate area within which the growth occurs. Local agencies and schools will share the growth of “base” revenues from the tax rate area. Each year’s growth allocation becomes part of each agency’s allocation in the following year. Assessed Valuation History. The summary below presents a 10-year history of the assessed value of property within the City.

Page 461 of 501 -44- 4125-9942-2535.12 Transient Occupancy Tax Transient occupancy tax (“TOT”) receipts are estimated at $10,700,000 in Fiscal Year 2022-23 (9.5% of 2022-23 estimated General Fund revenues). The City’s transient occupancy tax is imposed on overnight visitors who occupy a room or rooms in a hotel, inn, motel, bed & breakfast, or other lodging facility within the City’s limits for stays of less than 30 consecutive days. The amount of the tax is 10% of the total rental amount and was increased from 9% to 10% on October 1, 1993. This increase was not approved by majority vote of the electorate, but is not governed by Proposition 62 because the City is a charter city. See “CERTAIN LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND APPROPRIATIONS—Proposition 62” herein. The tax does not have a sunset provision. COVID-19 travel restrictions and the curtailment of classes at California Polytechnic University impacted the city’s hospitality industry and decreased transient occupancy tax receipts for the City. TOT revenue in FY 2019-20 decreased by $1.7 million compared to FY 2018-19 (the most significantly impacted revenue source in that year). Though TOT increased slightly in FY 2020-21, it remained 14% under FY 2018-19 levels. In FY 2021-22, tourism along the central coast made a strong comeback, as the region reopened and benefited from being a drive-to destination. Monthly TOT receipts reached all-time highs in FY 2021-22 ($1.6 million over projections for the year), driven largely by high room rates. Other Taxes and Revenues Utility Users Tax. The City levies a utility users tax which is estimated at $6,100,000 in Fiscal Year 2022-23 (5.4% of estimated General fund revenues). Adopted by the voters in 2012, the City levies a 5% tax on all residences and businesses using telephone, electricity, natural gas and water utilities, and a 4.8% rate for video and telecommunications. Although the tax is collected for the City by the utility com panies, it is a tax on the user, not the utility. The utility users tax does not have a sunset provision. Vehicle License Fee. The State imposes the vehicle license fee, which is the fee paid annually in lieu of personal property taxes on a vehicle, and distributed to cities and counties. The vehicle license fee is based on vehicle value (originally in the amount of 2% of the market value of the vehicle) and declines as the vehicle ages. Since 1998 the fee has been incrementally reduced from 2% of a vehicle’s current estimated value, but any such reductions were “backfilled” to local governments by the State from other sources. However, under the 2004-05 State Budget, the VLF was permanently reduced to 0.65% of the estimated value, and backfill by the State to local governments was eliminated, and instead will be met by an increased property tax apportionment to cities and counties. This amounts to approximately $6 million annually as a revenue neutral swap for the City.

Page 462 of 501 -45- 4125-9942-2535.12 Parking Rates (Specific to Parking Enterprise) The City has budgeted revenues of its Parking Fund for payment of debt service on the portion of the Bonds purposed toward the construction of the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure. The Parking Fund is not pledged for the payment of the Bonds. The City’s Parking Fund implements the Access and Parking Management Plan and directs the operations and maintenance of the City’s parking facilities. Parking Fund revenues include rates and fees charge for parking services, property lease income, and one-time incomes such as Parking In-Lieu fee payments. According to City Fiscal Policies, rates must be sufficient to cover operations, capital asset improvements and maintenance, debt obligations, and to maintain appropriate reserve levels to keep the fund healthy and prepared for unforeseen and long-term funding needs. Parking Fund revenues for FY 2021-22 are $5,164,226 and are projected to reach $10,203,324 for FY 2023-24. The City Council has approved two parking rate increases to hourly paid parking effective July 1, 2023 and July 1, 2025 as shown in the table below. Based on the City’s forecast for Fiscal Year 2024-25 and projections for later fiscal years, the City expects that the City’s Parking Fund revenues will be sufficient to offset the City’s obligation to make lease payments relating to the Bonds from the General Fund.

Direct and Overlapping Bonded Debt Set forth below is a direct and overlapping debt report (the “Debt Report”) prepared by California Municipal Statistics, Inc., effective August 19, 2022 for debt issued as of June 30, 2022. The Debt Report is included for general information purposes only. The City has not reviewed the Debt Report for completeness or accuracy and makes no representation in connection therewith. The Debt Report generally includes long-term obligations sold in the public credit markets by public agencies whose boundaries overlap the boundaries of the City in whole or in part. Such long-term obligations generally are not payable from revenues of the City (except as indicated) nor are they necessarily obligations secured by land within the City. In many cases, long-term obligations issued by a public agency are payable only from the general fund or other revenues of such public agency. Page 465 of 501 -48- 4125-9942-2535.12 The contents of the Debt Report are as follows: (1) the first column indicates the public agencies which have outstanding debt as of the date of the Debt Report and whose territory overlaps the City; (2) the second column shows the percentage of the assessed valuation of the overlapping public agency identified in column 1 which is represented by property located within the City; and (3) the third column is an apportionment of the dollar amount of each public agency’s outstanding debt (which amount is not shown in the table) to property in the City, as determined by multiplying the total outstanding debt of each agency by the percentage of the City’s assessed valuation represented in column 2.

Page 466 of 501 -49- 4125-9942-2535.12 Employee Relations The City has 462.75 authorized full-time equivalent staff positions for Fiscal Year 2022-23. City employees are represented by four labor organizations, the principal of which is the San Luis Obispo City Employees’ Association, which represents approximately 44% of all City employees in a variety of classifications. There have been no work stoppages by City employees. Approximately 75% of all regular City employees are covered under negotiated agreements, summarized and with the expiration dates set forth below: Bargaining Units Number of Employees Agreement Expiration Date San Luis Obispo City Employees’ Association 204.25 June 30, 2025 Police Officers’ Association 67 June 30, 2024 Police Staff Officers’ Association 17 June 30, 2027 Firefighters(1) 56.5 December 31, 2023 _______________ (1) Both the city and Fire negotiating teams are currently in active discussions and making preparations to begin official negotiations in early September 2023. Management and Confidential employees of the City are not represented and make up the remaining 25% of the regular City employees. The resolutions covering Management and Confidential employees expires June 30, 2025. Insurance A summary of insurance coverage for the City, effective as of June 30, 2022, is provided below. General Liability and Workers’ Compensation. The City is a member of the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (“CJPIA”), which provides joint protection programs and group purchased insurance for public entities covering liability, errors and omission losses, auto liability, employment practices liability, crime, pollution, workers’ compensation injuries and coverage for city-owned property. The City has a retained limit of $500,000 per occurrence for liability and a retained limit of $500,000 per occurrence for workers’ compensation. Liabilities of the City are reported to CJPIA when it is probable that a loss has occurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Liabilities include an amount for claims that have been incurred but not reported. The result of the actuarial process to estimate the claims liability is not an exact amount as it depends on many complex factors, such as inflation, changes in legal doctrines and damage awards. Accordingly, claims are reevaluated periodically to consider the effects of economic and social factors. The estimate of the claims liability (reserve amount set on each claim) also includes amounts for incremental claim adjustment expenses related to specific claims and other claim adjustment expenses regardless of whether or not they are attributable to specific claims. Estimated recoveries, for example from salvage or subrogation, are another component of the claims liability estimate. During the past three fiscal years, none of the protection programs experienced settlement s or judgments that exceeded pooled or insured coverage. There were also no significant reductions in pooled or insured coverage in 2021-22. CJPIA covers workers’ compensation claims up to a pooled limit of $2 million per occurrence and provides excess coverage to statutory limits with a group purchased commercial insurance policy. The City pays an annual contribution to CJPIA and may share in any member refunds in the event that pooled funding Page 467 of 501 -50- 4125-9942-2535.12 exceeds the cost of pooled claims and claim-related expenses, or the City may be required to pay additional contributions based upon CJPIA’s operating results. Financial statements of CJPIA may be obtained from its administrative office located at 8081 Moody Street, La Palma, California 90623, or by calling (562) 467- 8700. Additional claims and lawsuits have been filed against the City in the normal course of business. It is reasonably possible that the City may be liable for claims not to exceed $500,000. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the City. See Appendix A—“AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022 – Note 13: Risk Management” hereto. Employee Retirement System Retirement Plan. General. The City contributes to the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (“CalPERS”) under an agent-multiple employer public employee retirement plan (for miscellaneous members, the “Miscellaneous Plan”) and cost-sharing employer public employee retirement plans (for safety members, the “Safety Plans”) that acts as a common investment and administrative agent for participating entities within the State of California. Benefit provision and all other requirements are established by State statute and City ordinance. Copies of CalPERS’ annual financial report are available from their Executive Office, 400 P Street, Sacramento, California 95814. CalPERS is a separate and distinct legal entity from the City and serves as an independent fiduciary in managing the City’s retirement plan assets. Eligibility. All full-time and part-time benefited City employees are eligible to participate in the retirement program. Benefits vest after five years of service. In addition to basic retirement benefits, the retirement program also provides death and survivor’s benefits. These benefit provisions and all other requirements are established by State statute and City ordinance. About CalPERS. Along with over 3,000 other cities and local agencies, the City contracts with CalPERS for its “defined benefit” retirement plan, which covers all of its regular employees (except in rare circumstances, temporary employees are not covered by the CalPERS plan). Due to changes made by the City and through legislation, there are several CalPERS retirement benefit programs. The City enacted a 2nd Tier benefit plan program which provides a lower level of benefits than the original plan. This plan is available to eligible new employees who are hired after August 30, 2012 (for sworn fire personnel plan members) and after December 6, 2012 for miscellaneous and sworn police safety plan members. A 3rd Tier program was created following the enactment of the Public Employee Pension Reform Act (AB 340) in January 2013. Under this program, employees who are considered new to the CalPERS retirement program are enrolled as required by the new law. The 3rd Tier program provides the lowest level of benefit of the three plans that are now in effect. The following chart summarizes these benefits which reflect the benefit earned each year, as a percentage of the employees qualifying salary and the normal retirement age for the program: 1st Tier 2nd Tier 3rd Tier Miscellaneous 2.7% @ 55 2% @ 60 2% @ 62 Fire Sworn 3% @ 50 3% @ 55 2.7% @ 57 Police Sworn 3% @ 50 2% @ 50 2.7% @ 57 Contribution Rates. All employees contribute the full amount of the required member contribution. For safety employees, the required contribution is either 8%, 9% or 13.75% of annual covered salary Page 468 of 501 -51- 4125-9942-2535.12 depending on the plan they participate in. For safety employees, the required contribution is either 9% or 13.75% of annual covered salary depending on the plan they participate in. For miscellaneous plan members the required contribution is either 7% or 8% of annual covered salary depending upon which plan they participate in. The City’s required contribution to CalPERS is shown below for Fiscal Years 2020-21 and 2021-22. As of the Fiscal Year 2017-18 contribution, CalPERS no longer determines the employer contribution toward the Unfunded Liability as a percentage of payroll, but as a flat dollar contribution. The employer contribution toward the Normal Cost is still provided as a percentage of payroll: Fiscal Year 2020-21 Employer Normal Cost Unfunded Liability Payment Miscellaneous Plan* 10.623% $ 6,020,512 Safety Plan Tier 1 25.54 5,330,744 Police Safety Tier 2 19.825 13,198 Fire Safety Tier 2 22.397 26,207 Police Safety Tier 3 13.884 26,528 Fire Safety Tier 3 13.884 2,481 *CalPERS provides a blended rate for all 3 tiers.

Annual Pension Cost and Required Contribution. For the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2022, the City’s annual pension cost for the employer’s contribution to CalPERS was $7,709,918 for miscellaneous employees and $7,167,638, for safety employees. The required employer contribution was determined as part of the actuarial valuation dated June 30, 2019 using the entry age normal actuarial cost method. PERS reports that the lag time is necessary due to the amount of time needed for them to extract and test the membership and financial data, and due to the need to provide public agencies with their employer contribution rates well in advance of the start of the fiscal year. The actuarial assumptions included: (i) 7.15% investment rate of return (net of investment and administrative expenses); (ii) projected salary increases that vary by duration of service ranging from 3.1% to 20% for both miscellaneous and safety members; (iii) an inflation factor of 2.5% compounded annually, Page 469 of 501 -52- 4125-9942-2535.12 and (iv) 2.5% annual cost-of-living adjustments for miscellaneous and safety members. The unfunded liability is amortized as a “level percent of pay.” Commencing with the June 30, 2013 valuation, all new gains or losses are amortized over a fixed 30-year period with a 5-year ramp up at the beginning and a 5-year ramp down at the end of the amortization period. In 2017, CalPERS made significant policy changes to address unfunded liabilities systemwide. These policy changes significantly increased required pension contributions for member agencies. As a result, the City had to reduce ongoing expenditures by $8.9 million (across all funds) in order to address and increase its pension contributions in line with new CalPERS requirements. To provide a framework to respond to the long-term fiscal impacts of the significant increases in required pension contributions to the CalPERS retirement system, the City Council adopted a Fiscal Health Response Plan (FHRP), containing three key components, which began implementation with adoption of the FY 2018-19 Financial Plan Supplement and continued through FY 2020-21. The three components of the FHRP included: identification of new revenues, identification of operating reductions and new ways of doing business, and employee concessions. Over the three years of the FHRP, the City negotiated in good faith with its represented and unrepresented bargaining groups to achieve approximately $1.9M of ongoing employee concessions. The employee concessions aimed at a recipe of increasing the employee contribution to CalPERS (“retirement cost-sharing”) by three (3%) percent of pay and offsetting that employee burden by providing a 4% cost- of-living adjustment over a two-year period and continuing the annual City health insurance cost-sharing contribution. Ultimately, the City was able to successfully negotiate retirement cost-sharing with all groups except the San Luis Obispo City Employees Association. In addressing unfunded pension liability as it related to employee concessions, the Council adopted policies such as the Fiscal Sustainability Policy, Compensation Philosophy, and Labor Relations Objectives to provide guidance and address and implement the concept of “shared responsibility.” This concept acknowledges the responsibility of the City, and its employees, to share the burden of pension and health costs, including addressing unfunded liabilities, while recognizing that increasing the employee share of this cost may impact the City’s ability to attract and retain well-qualified employees that ultimately deliver programs and services to the community. With that in mind, employee concessions were proposed as a significant component of the FHRP. To date, implementation of the concessions has resulted in employees from all bargaining groups, except members of the San Luis Obispo City Employees’ Association, paying an additional three (3%) percent of retirement cost sharing ongoing. Implementation of the components noted above have contributed to the City’s ability to address increased CalPERS contributions and make a total of $16.6 million in additional discretionary payments in order to paydown its pension liability. The City’s commitment to paying down its pension debt by making additional discretionary payments (ADPs) has helped to make progress on improving the plan’s overall funded status. Unfortunately, the CalPERS 2022 investment loss of 7.5% has adversely impacted the City’s funded status (as well as that of other PERS agencies throughout California). The ADPs that the City has made have helped to make progress in paying down the unfunded pension liabilities. As of 2021, the funded status of the City’s pension had reached 70.1%, a significant improvement compared to 64.4% in 2015. Absent the ADPs, the funded status in 2021 would have been 68.5%. Unfortunately, the CalPERS -7.5% investment return in FY 2021-22 significantly impacted the City’s funded status (as well as that of other PERS agencies). The City’s current unfunded liability (UFL) is approximately $180 million. This UFL is addressed through ongoing regular payments to CalPERS and paydown is expedited by the City’s ability to make ADPs. Actuarial Analysis Feedback provided by the City’s independent Actuary is that the City is taking appropriate action to make progress in paying down Page 470 of 501 -53- 4125-9942-2535.12 the unfunded pension liabilities, but that market conditions impacting CalPERS investments hinder progress.

The net pension liability of each of the Safety Plans was measured as of June 30, 2021, and the total pension liability for each Safety Plan used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2020 rolled forward to June 30, 2021 using standard update procedures. The City’s proportion of the net pension liability was based on a projection of the City’s long-term share of contributions to the Safety Plans relative to the projected contributions of all participating employers in the CalPERS Safety Risk Pool, actuarially determined. The City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability for the Safety Plans as of June 30, 2022 was $58,571,330. The City’s percentage share of the net pension liability for the Safety Plans as of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2021, based on the reports available from CalPERS, were as follows: TABLE 14 CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO CHANGES IN NET PENSION LIABILITY – SAFETY PLAN Proportionate Share Percentage share at 6/30/20 0.72250% Percentage share at 6/30/21 1.08299% Change – Increase/(Decrease) 0.36049% _______________ Source: City of San Luis Obispo Audited Financial Statements. Other Post-Employment Benefits. The City’s primary Other Post-Employment Benefits (“OPEB”) are for retiree health benefits under the City’s election to participate in the CalPERS Health Benefit Program. The City entered the CalPERS medical insurance program in 1993 under the Public Employees’ Medical and Hospital Care Act. Page 472 of 501 -55- 4125-9942-2535.12 The required employer contribution is $149.00 per month per retiree in calendar year 2022 and $151.00 per month per retiree in calendar year 2023. Retirees pay the differential monthly amount of the premium, which varies depending on the health benefits they select. Additionally, the City has established certain post-retirement health care benefits available to executive management employees appointed prior to August 2000 (together with the City’s participation in the CalPERS Health Benefit Program, the “Plan”). One retiree remains eligible for this benefit. The City pays one-half of the retiree health insurance premiums for this retiree. During the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2009, the City entered into an agreement with California Employers’ Retiree Benefit Trust (“CERBT”) to pre-fund the City’s OPEB liability. The contribution requirement of the plan members and the City are established and may be amended by the City. The City prefunds the plan through CERBT by contributing at least 100% of the annual required contribution (the “ARC”) including fully funding the implied subsidy. The ARC is an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB standards. The City’s ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover the normal cost each year and amortize the unfunded liability over a period of 30 years. For Fiscal Year 2021-22, the City contributed $949,000 to the Plan, which fully funded the annual required contribution. The City paid a total of $340,000 to the CalPERS Health Benefit Program and retirees during the year and $229,000 to the CERBT. In addition, the City contributed an additional $360,000 to prefund benefits and pay down a portion of the implied subsidy of the Plan. CERBT is a tax-qualified irrevocable trust organized under Internal Revenue Code Section 115 and established to pre-fund retiree healthcare benefits. CERBT issues a publicly available financial report including GASB disclosure information in aggregate with other CERBT participating employers. That report may be obtained by contacting CalPERS, 400 P Street, Sacramento, CA 95814. For the Fiscal Years ended June 30, 2020, 2021 and 2022, the City’s annual OPEB costs (expense) of $1,190,000, $921,000 and $949,000, respectively, were equal to the annual required contribution. Trend and funding status information is as follows, based on the Plan’s most recent actuarial valuation date of June 30, 2021.

Safety, liquidity and yield are the factors considered, in priority order, in determining individual investment placements. In April 2013, an Investment Oversight Committee was formed to advise the City Treasurer on investment policy and Page 473 of 501 -56- 4125-9942-2535.12 compliance. Investment policies are reviewed and approved annually by the City Council and the Investment Oversight Committee, consisting of the Mayor, City Manager, City Treasurer, staff, and a member of the public meets quarterly with an investment advisor to review compliance. The composition of investments in the City pool will vary from time-to-time depending on cash flow needs of the City, the maturity of investments, purchases of new securities, and due to fluctuations in interest rates. All investments are in compliance with the City’s investment policy. As of March 31, 2023, 55% of the investments within the City pool were in highly liquid instruments. The average duration of the investments managed by the City’s contracted investment advisor was 2.05 years. As of March 31, 2023, the investments in the City pool were as follows: TABLE 15 CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO INVESTMENT POOL SUMMARY OF ASSETS HELD Local Agency Investment Fund – Money Market Fund City & CIB $ 44,807,639 JP Morgan Chase – Money Market 50,000,000 PFMAM Managed Investments 100,649,077 Pacific Premier Bank – Collateralized Certificate of Deposit 1,000,000 Pacific Premier Bank – Money Market 1,026,162 TOTAL INVESTMENTS $ 197,482,878 Bank Balance $ 25,952,182 TOTAL TREASURY BALANCE $ 223,435,060 _______________ Source: City of San Luis Obispo. TAX MATTERS In the opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Bond Counsel to the Authority, based upon an analysis of existing laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions, and assuming, among other matters, the accuracy of certain representations and compliance with certain covenants, interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Code and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes. Bond Counsel is of the further opinion that interest on the Bonds is not a specific preference item for purposes of the federal individual alternative minimum tax . Bond Counsel observes that, for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022, interest on the Bonds included in adjusted financial statement income of certain corporations is not excluded from the federal corporate alternative minimum tax. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any other tax consequences related to the ownership or disposition of, or the amount, accrual, or receipt of interest o n, the Bonds. A complete copy of the proposed form of opinion of Bond Counsel is set forth in Appendix D. To the extent the issue price of any maturity of the Bonds is less than the amount to be paid at maturity of such Bonds (excluding amounts stated to be interest and payable at least annually over the term of such Bonds), the difference constitutes “original issue discount,” the accrual of which, to the extent properly allocable to each beneficial owner thereof, is treated as interest on the Bonds which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and exempt from State of California personal income taxes. For this purpose, the issue price of a particular maturity of the Bonds is the first price at which a substantial amount of such maturity of the Bonds is sold to the public (excluding bond houses, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers). The original issue discount with respect to any maturity of the Bonds accrues daily over the term to maturity Page 474 of 501 -57- 4125-9942-2535.12 of such Bonds on the basis of a constant interest rate compounded semiannually (with straight-line interpolations between compounding dates). The accruing original issue discount is added to the adjusted basis of such Bonds to determine taxable gain or loss upon disposition (including sale, redemption, or payment on maturity) of such Bonds. Beneficial owners of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the tax consequences of ownership of Bonds with original issue discount, including the treatment of beneficial owners who do not purchase such Bonds in the original offering to the public at the first price at which a substantial amount of such Bonds is sold to the public. Bonds purchased, whether at original issuance or otherwise, for an amount higher than their principal amount payable at maturity (or, in some cases, at their earlier call date) (“Premium Bonds”) will be treated as having amortizable bond premium. No deduction is allowable for the amortizable bond premium in the case of bonds, like the Premium Bonds, the interest on which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. However, the amount of tax-exempt interest received, and a beneficial owner’s basis in a Premium Bond, will be reduced by the amount of amortizable bond premium properly allocable to such beneficial owner. Beneficial owners of Premium Bonds should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the proper treatment of amortizable bond premium in their particular circumstances. The Code imposes various restrictions, conditions and requirements relating to the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on obligations such as the Bonds. The Authority has made certain representations and covenanted to comply with certain restrictions, conditions and requirements designed to ensure that interest on the Bonds will not be included in federal gross income . Inaccuracy of these representations or failure to comply with these covenants may result in interest on the Bonds being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes, possibly from the date of original issuance of the Bonds. The opinion of Bond Counsel assumes the accuracy of these representations and compliance with these covenants. Bond Counsel has not undertaken to determine (or to inform any person) whether any actions taken (or not taken), or events occurring (or not occurring), or any other matters coming to Bond Counsel’s attention after the date of issuance of the Bonds may adversely affect the value of, or the tax status of interest on, the Bonds. Accordingly, the opinion of Bond Counsel is not intended to, and may not, be relied upon in connection with any such actions, events or matters. Although Bond Counsel is of the opinion that interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and is exempt from State of California personal income taxes, the ownership or disposition of, or the accrual or receipt of amounts treated as interest on, the Bonds may otherwise affect a beneficial owner’s federal, state or local tax liability. The nature and extent of these other tax consequences depends upon the particular tax status of the beneficial owner or the beneficial owner’s other items of income or deduction. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any such other tax consequences. Current and future legislative proposals, if enacted into law, clarification of the Code or court decisions may cause interest on the Bonds to be subject, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, to federal income taxation or to be subject to or exempted from state income taxation, or otherwise prevent beneficial owners from realizing the full current benefit of the tax status of such interest. The introduction or enactment of any such legislative proposals or clarification of the Code or court decisions may also affect, perhaps significantly, the market price for, or marketability of, the Bonds . Prospective purchasers of the Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding the potential impact of any pending or proposed federal or state tax legislation, regulations or litigation, as to which Bond Counsel expresses no opinion. The opinion of Bond Counsel is based on current legal authority, covers certain matters not directly addressed by such authorities, and represents Bond Counsel’s judgment as to the proper treatment of the Bonds for federal income tax purposes. It is not binding on the IRS or the courts. Furthermore, Bond Counsel cannot give and has not given any opinion or assurance about the future activities of the Authority, Page 475 of 501 -58- 4125-9942-2535.12 or about the effect of future changes in the Code, the applicable regulations, the interpretation thereof or the enforcement thereof by the IRS. The Authority has covenanted, however, to comply with the requirements of the Code. Bond Counsel’s engagement with respect to the Bonds ends with the issuance of the Bonds, and, unless separately engaged, Bond Counsel is not obligated to defend the Authority or the beneficial owners regarding the tax-exempt status of the Bonds in the event of an audit examination by the IRS. Under current procedures, beneficial owners would have little, if any, right to participate in the audit examination process. Moreover, because achieving judicial review in connection with an audit examination of tax-exempt bonds is difficult, obtaining an independent review of IRS positions with which the Authority legitimately disagrees may not be practicable. Any action of the IRS, including but not limited to selection of the Bonds for audit, or the course or result of such audit, or an audit of bonds presenting similar tax issues may affect the market price for, or the marketability of, the Bonds, and may cause the Authority or the beneficial owners to incur significant expense. Payments on the Bonds generally will be subject to U.S. information reporting and possibly to “backup withholding.” Under Section 3406 of the Code and applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations issued thereunder, a non-corporate beneficial owner of Bonds may be subject to backup withholding with respect to “reportable payments,” which include interest paid on the Bonds and the gross proceeds of a sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other disposition of the Bonds. The payor will be required to deduct and withhold the prescribed amounts if (i) the payee fails to furnish a U.S. taxpayer identification number (“TIN”) to the payor in the manner required, (ii) the IRS notifies the payor that the TIN furnished by the payee is incorrect, (iii) there has been a “notified payee underreporting” described in Section 3406(c) of the Code or (iv) the payee fails to certify under penalty of perjury that the payee is not subject to withholding under Section 3406(a)(1)(C) of the Code. Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be refunded or credited against a beneficial owner’s federal income tax liability, if any, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. Certain beneficial owners (including among others, corporations and certain tax-exempt organizations) are not subject to backup withholding. The failure to comply with the backup withholding rules may result in the imposition of penalties by the IRS. CERTAIN LEGAL MATTERS The validity of the Bonds and certain other legal matters are subject to the approving opinion of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Bond Counsel to the Authority. A complete copy of the proposed form of Bond Counsel opinion is contained in Appendix D hereto. Certain matters will be passed upon for the Authority and for the City by the City Attorney. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Underwriter by Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth, A Professional Corporation, Underwriter’s Counsel. Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP has also served as Disclosure Counsel. Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Bond Counsel and Disclosure Counsel, undertakes no responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of this Official Statement. MUNICIPAL ADVISOR The City has retained PFM Financial Advisors LLC, of San Francisco, California, as municipal advisor (the “Municipal Advisor”) in connection with the issuance of the Bonds. The Municipal Advisor is not obligated to undertake, and has not undertaken to make, an independent verification or assume responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, or fairness of the information contained in this Official Statement. The Municipal Advisor is an independent financial advisory firm and is not engaged in the business of underwriting, trading or distributing municipal securities or other public securities. Page 476 of 501 -59- 4125-9942-2535.12 VERIFICATION [Verification Agent] (the “Verification Agent”) independent accountants, upon delivery of the Bonds, will deliver a report on the mathematical accuracy of certain computations, contained in schedules provided to them by Raymond James & Associates, Inc. (the “Underwriter”), relating to the sufficiency of moneys and securities deposited with the Escrow Agent to pay, when due, the interest, principal and redemption price of the 2012 Bonds. The report of the Verification Agent will include the statement that the scope of its engagement is limited to verifying the mathematical accuracy of the computations contained in such schedules provided to it and that it has no obligation to update its report because of events occurring, or data or information coming to its attention, subsequent to the date of its report. LITIGATION There is no action, suit, or proceeding known by the Authority or the City to be pending or threatened at the present time restraining or enjoining the delivery of the Bonds or in any way contesting or affecting the validity of the Bonds, the Indenture, the Lease Agreement, the Gro und Lease or any proceedings of the Authority or the City taken with respect to the execution or delivery thereof. CONTINUING DISCLOSURE The City has covenanted for the benefit of owners of the Bonds to provide certain financial information and operating data relating to the City by not later than nine months after the end of the City’s fiscal year (which is currently June 30) in each year commencing with the report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 (the “Annual Report”) and to provide notices of the occurrence of certain enumerated events. The Annual Report and event notices will be filed by the City with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board. These covenants have been made in order to assist the Underwriters in complying with Securities Exchange Commission Rule 15c2-12(b)(5) (the “Rule”). The specific nature of the information to be contained in the Annual Report or the notices of material events by the City is set forth in Appendix E— “FORM OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE CERTIFICATE.” In the past five years, the City has from time to time failed to link certain bond CUSIPS to its timely filed audited financial statements.

Certain information was supplied by the Authority and the City to the rating agency to be considered in evaluating the Bonds. Such rating express only the view of the rating agency and is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold the Bonds. There is no assurance that such rating will continue for any given period of time or that it will not be reduced or withdrawn entirely by the rating agency if in its judgment circumstances so warrant . The Authority, the City and the Trustee undertake no responsibility to oppose any such revision or withdrawal. Any such downward revision or withdrawal may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Bonds. UNDERWRITING The Bonds were purchased by Raymond James & Associates, Inc. (the “Underwriter”). The Underwriter has agreed to purchase the Bonds at a purchase price of $[PURCHASE PRICE] (calculated as the principal amount of the Bonds, plus a net original issue premium of $[PREMIUM] and less an Underwriter’s discount of $[DISCOUNT]). The initial public offering prices set forth on the cover page Page 477 of 501 -60- 4125-9942-2535.12 may be changed by the Underwriter. The Underwriter may offer and sell the Bonds to certain dealers and others at prices lower than the public offering prices set forth on the inside cover page hereof.

In September 2022, Governor Newsom signed SB 846, enabling Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) to extend operations beyond 2025 and in March 2023 the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) authorized PG&E to continue operating Diablo Canyon while the NRC considers renewal of its license. The initial plan to close Di ablo Canyon included a program to retain skilled workers through 2025 and funding to retrain workers displaced by the closure. Despite the continued operation of Diablo Canyon, the City will retain the funding provided via SB 1090 for employee retention.

Construction Activity The following tables show a three-year summary of the number and valuation of building permits issued in the City. Building permits are issued for various projects ranging from the relatively simple (e.g., water heaters, window change outs, reroofing, etc.) to the more complex projects (e.g., additions and new buildings). Plan reviews are typically required for the more complex projects where it is necessary to review proposed design documents for code compliance. Table B-6 shows the number of plan check applications conducted by the Building Division over the last 3 years. Development activity remained relatively steady in 2022.

Page 485 of 501 B-6 4125-9942-2535.12 Construction valuation is a good indicator of the level of private investment in building construction. Table B-8 depicts the annual construction valuation over the past 3 years. Valuation data shows a substantial increase in commercial valuation while residential valuation remained relatively steady. The total valuation increased by approximately $41.9 million from 2021 to 2022. This increase is despite a decrease in total number of issued permits. This is an indicator that the cost of construction has increased since 2021.

Through the Climate Action Plan, the City is decreasing transportation emissions by improving bike and pedestrian facilities, installing electric vehicle chargers and upgrading public transit to make community members more likely to adopt alternative forms of transportation. The City is also implementing measures to divert organic waste from the landfill (a source of methane emissions), as well as an initiative to plant 10,000 new trees and to protect and manage its open space lands for carbon sequestration. In addition, the City has implemented a project titled “Resilient SLO” that resulted in the adoption of the Climate Adaptation and Safety Element of the City’s General Plan in 2023, which identifies and prioritizes the actions that are necessary for preparing the community for climate change impacts, focusing on finding the best ways to develop community resilience based on a range of potential physical hazards that are negatively affected by climate change such as floods, extreme heat and wildfires. Cyber Security To date, the City is not aware of any significant cyber security events affecting the City or its funds. The City has cybersecurity policies and practices in place designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of City data and resources including personally identifiable information and sensitive information. At a high level, these policies are organized into several areas and summarized as follows: • Risk Assessment: The City conducts regular external and internal assessments to identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities and threats to the City’s infrastructure. This involves internal analysis and quarterly external expert security assessments of existing systems, networks, assets, and alerts to prioritize updates, patches and other security measures accordingly. • Incident Response Plan: The City has a comprehensive plan outlining the steps to be taken in the event of a cyber incident. This plan includes procedures for reporting, investigating, Page 486 of 501 B-7 4125-9942-2535.12 containing, and recovering from cybersecurity breaches as well as contact information for relevant consultant, law enforcement, legal, and insurance representatives. • Access Control and Authentication: The City implements strong access controls and multifactor authentication mechanisms to ensure that only authorized personnel can access sensitive information and critical systems. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) password recommendations, multi-factor authentication, role-based access controls as appropriate and access logging on sensitive or critical data are all enforced. • Network Security: The City has robust layered defenses, and implements new systems based on zero trust methodologies. The City’s security solutions include intrusion detection and prevention systems on north/south and east/west traffic with SSL decryption, virtual private networks (VPNs) for external network access, security proxied web traffic, best in class mail and endpoint security, and segmented network access with firewalls between zones. Network devices, endpoints, and our virtual infrastructure are regularly updated and patched to address known vulnerabilities and protect against emerging threats. • Encryption: Sensitive data (primarily criminal justice information services) is encrypted in transit and at rest. The City uses industry-standard CJIS approved encryption protocols for secure communication and storage of data. • Employee Awareness and Training: City employees are given data security basics and expectations immediately upon hire and are required to take an hour-long Cybersecurity awareness course within 6 weeks of hire date on data security and expectations. A shorter course is required for continued access to network resources annually. Quarterly phishing “tests” are conducted and any failure results in further education. • Regular Backups and Recovery: The City implements regular data backups to ensure critical information can be recovered in the event of data loss or a successful cyberattack. Backups are maintained with protocols meeting industry best practices. • Vendor and Third-Party Risk: The City continuously assess and manage the cybersecurity risks associated with third-party vendors and contractors access the City’s systems or data and implement the same password and multifactor access requirements required of all employees. Vendors and third parties are held to contractual obligations regarding data security and due diligence with City data. • Continuous Monitoring and Incident Detection: The City has automated monitoring and alerting systems tuned to detect potential security incidents in real-time and alert standby network administrators of threats that require our attention. This includes IDS/IPS, mail security, endpoint security, hardware alerts and event monitoring. • Compliance with Regulations: The City’s IT department works with other departments to ensure applicable industry specific cybersecurity regulations, such as data privacy laws and industry standards such as ELAP and CJIS, are followed for accreditation and audit protection. • Insurance: As a member of the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (CJPIA), the City also has cyber liability coverage of $1,000,000 per year after a $250,000 deductible. The insurance covers privacy incidents, network security incidents, media incidents, and cyber crime with certain exclusions, for both first party and third party liability.

[The Issuer anticipates that the Annual Report will be filed by _____________.] Dated: _______________ CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO By [to be signed only if filed] Page 498 of 501 F-1 4125-9942-2535.12 APPENDIX F DTC DESCRIPTION The description that follows of the procedures and recordkeeping with respect to beneficial ownership interests in the Bonds, payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds to Participants or Beneficial Owners, confirmation and transfer of beneficial ownership interests in the Bonds, and other related transactions by and between DTC, Participants and Beneficial Owners, is based on information furnished by DTC which the City and the Authority believe to be reliable, but the City and the Authority do not take responsibility for the completeness or accuracy thereof. The City and the Authority cannot and do not give any assurances that DTC, DTC Participants or Indirect Participants will distribute to the Beneficial Owners either (a) payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Bonds or (b) certificates representing ownership interests in or other confirmation of ownership interests in the Bonds, or that they will so do on a timely basis or that DTC, DTC Participants or DTC Indirect Participants will act in the manner described in this Official Statement . The current “Rules” applicable to DTC are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the current “Procedures” of DTC to be followed in dealing with DTC Participants are on file with DTC. The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), New York, NY, will act as securities depository for the Bonds. The Bonds will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered bond will be issued for each maturity (and each yield in the case of bifurcated maturities) of the Bonds, in the aggregate principal amount of such issue, and will be deposited with DTC. DTC, the world’s largest securities depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, 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 provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC’s participants (“Direct Participants”) deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly (“Indirect Participants”). DTC has a Standard & Poor’s rating of AA+. The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com; provided that nothing contained in such website is incorporated into this Official Statement. Purchases of Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Bond (“Beneficial Owner”) is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants’ records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as Page 499 of 501 F-2 4125-9942-2535.12 periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in Bonds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Bonds is discontinued. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Bonds; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Bonds are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augment the transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the Indenture. For example, Beneficial Owners of Bonds may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Bonds for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners. In the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of notices be provided directly to them. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within an issue are being redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be redeemed. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC’s MMI Procedures . Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the City and the Authority as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy). Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments on the Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to credit Direct Participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the City, the Authority or the Trustee, on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC’s records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name,” and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, the Trustee, the City or the Authority, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the City, the Authority or the Trustee, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants. Page 500 of 501 F-3 4125-9942-2535.12 The City and the Authority may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, bond certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC. NEITHER THE CITY, THE AUTHORITY NOR THE TRUSTEE WILL HAVE ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR OBLIGATION TO DTC PARTICIPANTS, INDIRECT PARTICIPANTS OR BENEFICIAL OWNERS WITH RESPECT TO THE PAYMENTS OR THE PROVIDING OF NOTICE TO DTC PARTICIPANTS, INDIRECT PARTICIPANTS OR BENEFICIAL OWNERS OR THE SELECTION OF Bonds FOR REDEMPTION. DTC (or a successor securities depository) may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the City and the Authority. The City and the Authority, in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other person, may terminate the services of DTC (or a successor securities depository) with respect to the Bonds . The City and the Authority undertake no obligation to investigate matters that would enable the City and the Authority to make such a determination. In the event that the book-entry system is discontinued as described above, the requirements of the Indenture will apply. THE CITY, THE AUTHORITY AND THE UNDERWRITERS CANNOT AND DO NOT GIVE ANY ASSURANCES THAT DTC, THE PARTICIPANTS OR OTHERS WILL DISTRIBUTE PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL, INTEREST OR PREMIUM, IF ANY, WITH RESPECT TO THE Bonds PAID TO DTC OR ITS NOMINEE AS THE REGISTERED OWNER, OR WILL DISTRIBUTE ANY REDEMPTION NOTICES OR OTHER NOTICES, TO THE BENEFICIAL OWNERS, OR THAT THEY WILL DO SO ON A TIMELY BASIS OR WILL SERVE AND ACT IN THE MANNER DESCRIBED IN THIS OFFICIAL STATEMENT. THE CITY, THE AUTHORITY AND THE UNDERWRITERS ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR THE FAILURE OF DTC OR ANY PARTICIPANT TO MAKE ANY PAYMENT OR GIVE ANY NOTICE TO A BENEFICIAL OWNER WITH RESPECT TO THE Bonds OR AN ERROR OR DELAY RELATING THERETO. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the City and the Authority deem reliable, but the City and the Authority take no responsibility for the accuracy thereof. DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the City, the Authority or the Trustee. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor securities depository is not obtained, Bonds are required to be printed and delivered as described in the Indenture. The City and the Authority may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, Bonds will be printed and delivered as described in the Indenture and payment of interest to each Owner who owns of record $1,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Bonds may be made to such Owner by wire transfer to such wire address within the United States that such Owner may request in writing for all Interest Payment Dates following the 15th day after the Trustee’s receipt of such request.
