BACKGROUND
IRgASONS FQR RE M BNDATlC1NS
Mein-Roos Community Facilities Districts are a mechanism to mance infrastructure for approved
development projects. A voter approved special tax is use to pay the debt service on bonds issued by the
District. The County has adopted financing policies for Community Facilities District on September 13,1994.
WC Walnut Creek LLC has filed an application with the County for establishment of a Mesio-Moos Community
Facilities District(CFD)for the Renaissance Club Sport development,a 175 room Marriot Renaissance hotel
and a 70,000 square foot Club Sport Health Club,in the Pleasant Hill SART Area. The project is fully entitled,
and is under construction. Occupancy is expected by November 1, 2002. The proposed District is
unoccupied,and in one ownership,and therefore its establishment would be subject to a landowner/developer
vote. The proposed is to issue up to$3.5 million of special tax secured bonds to finance public infrastructure
required for the Renaissance Club Sport project, including water and sewer hookups, drainage and road
Improvements,and utility work.
The proposal conforms to the county adapted financing policies for Mello-Roos Community Facilities Districts.
The County Debt Advisory Committee(which consists of designers of the County Administrator,the Auditor-
Controller,and the Treasurer-Tax Collector)will further review and make a recommendation to the Board of
Supervisors prior to the Board's consideration of a Bond Sale Resolution in mid-October(estimated).
The recommended actions responds to a petition received from,the property owner, and conform to the
requirements of the Mello-Roos Community.Facilities Act of 1982, as amended (Chapter 2.5 of Part 1 of
Division 2 of Title 5,commencing at Section 53311 of the California Government Code).

below):
Band Redemption Amount
Plus Future Facilities Amount
Plus Redemption Premium
Plus Defeasance

F Assessor's Parcel prepaying the Special Tax in the Fiscal year in which
prepayment would be received by the County.
Step 2: }Divide the Maximum ,Special Tax computed pursuant t0 Step i for such
Assessor's Parcel by the Maximum Special Tax revenues that could be

f
Step g: Multiply the quotient computed pursuant to Step 2 by the Outstanding Bands
t0 compute the amount of Outstanding Bands to be retired and prepaid. (the
"Band.Redemption.Amount").
Step 4: Compute the current Future Facgities Costs.
Step 5: Multiply the quotient computed pursuant to Step 2 by the amount
determined pursuant to Step 4 to compute the amount of Future Facilities
Costs to be prepaid(the"Future Facilities Amount").
Step 6: Multiply the Bond Redemption Amount computed pursuant to Step 3 by the,
applicable redemption premium, if any, on the Outstanding Bands to be
redeemed(the"Redemption Premium").
Step 7: Compute the amount needed to pay interest on the Bond Redemption
Amount starting with the first Bond interest payment date after which the
prepayment has been received until the earliest redemption date for the
Outstanding Bonds. However, if Binds are callable at the first interest
payment date after the prepayment has been received, Steps 7, 8 and g of this
prepayment formula will not apply.
Step 8: Compute the amount of interest the County reasonably expects to derive from
reinvestment of the Bond Redemption Amount plus the Redemption
Premium from the first Bond interest payment date after which the
prepayment has been received until the redemption date for the Outstanding
Bonds. -
Step 9: Take the amount computed pursuant to Step 7 and subtract the amount
computed pursuant to Step 8(the"Defeasance")..
Step lo: The administrative fees and expenses of CFD No. 2002-1 are as calculated by
the County and include the costs of computation of the prepayment,the costs
of redeeming Bonds, and the costs of recording any notices to evidence the
prepayment and the redemption(the"Administrative Fees and Expenses").
Step 11: A reserve fund credit shall be calculated as the reduction, if any, in the
applicable reserve fund for the Outstanding Bonds to be redeemed pursuant
to the prepayment(the"Reserve Fund Credit").
Step 12: The Special. Tax prepayment is equal to the sum of the amounts computed
pursuant to Steps 8, 5, 6, g, and xo, less the amount computed pursuant to
Step ii (the"Prepayment Amount").
