DATE: April 26, 2018

TO: Mayor and City Council Members

FROM: Community Development Department

SUBJECT: RESOLUTION NO. 10112 — A RESOLUTION APPROVING A FOLSOM PLAN AREA SPECIFIC PLAN INFRASTRUCTURE FEE CREDIT/REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT WITH FOLSOM PLAN AREA LANDOWNERS FOR PARKLAND DEDICATION

BACKGROUND/ISSUE

On January 28, 2014, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 9298 approving the Public Facilities Financing Plan (PFFP) for the Folsom Plan Area (FPA). The PFFP is an $877 million plan that describes the infrastructure and facility costs, presents a financing strategy and estimates the time horizon for the future development of the FPA.

On September 8, 2015, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 9642 approving the Nexus Study for the establishment of the Folsom Plan Area Specific Plan Infrastructure Fees (SPIF) and established the initial amount of certain impact fees for the development of public facilities required to serve the FPA at the same level of service that is provided to the rest of the City. The SPIF Infrastructure Fee will equitably spread the cost burden of improvements for roadway and transportation facilities, sewer facilities, potable water facilities, recycled water facilities, storm drainage facilities, habitat mitigation and other associated improvements in the FPA as provided in the PFFP.

On January 9,2018, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 10059 approving the Nexus Study 2017-2018 Fiscal Year Update to the FPA Specific Plan Infrastructure Fees (SPIF) and an update to the previous initial SPIF fees established in September of 2015. The updated Specific Plan Infrastructure Fees for the FPA became effective on March 12, 2018 in accordance with Resolution No. 10059.

On March 13, 2018. The City Council adopted Resolution No. 10091 approving the SPIF Credit/Reimbursement Agreements for both the SPIF Infrastructure Fees and the SPIF Public Lands Fees. However, at the time of Council approval the SPIF Parkland Dedication Credit/Reimbursement Agreement had not yet been completed.

Grading and construction for the first phase of the Backbone Infrastructure in the FPA commenced in the Spring of 2017. The first phase of the Backbone Infrastructure includes roadway improvements, sanitary sewer trunk mains, a lift station and a forced main, potable and recycled water mains, booster pump stations and a water reservoir. The grading and construction also included the first four (4) single family residential subdivisions in the FPA. These subdivisions, Mangini Ranch Villages 1, 2, 8 and 9, are expected to be completed and accepted by the City in April of this year. Together with the completion and acceptance of the

subdivision improvements by the City, the landowner will need to have the small lot final maps for these subdivisions approved by the City Council and subsequently recorded with the Sacramento County Recorder prior to the issuance of any production home building permits in these subdivisions.

A condition of approval for all future development in the FPA is the requirement that each and every landowner satisfy their SPIF obligation prior to approval of a small lot final map or prior to issuance of a building permit in those cases where small lot final maps are not required (i.e. multi-family, commercial, office projects, etc.). In order to satisfy their SPIF obligation it is necessary that all SPIF Credit/Reimbursement Agreements be executed between the City and the landowner. It is important to note that the City not the landowner is the administrator of the SPIF Program and will therefore oversee and approve all credits and reimbursements on each and every future development in the FPA.

POLICY/RULE

City policy requires all agreements affecting real property be approved by the City Council.

ANALYSIS

The SPIF Program is essentially a City implemented FPA specific infrastructure development impact fee program. The SPIF program is designed to equalize the allocation of costs for SPIF improvements and facilities among benefitting development properties in the FPA. For example, the grading and construction for the Backbone Infrastructure and other related improvements in the FPA that commenced last April will benefit most of the future developments and their landowners however 100% of the funding for these same improvements are currently being expended entirely by only two (2) separate landowners. The SPIF Program is the mechanism by which these and other future landowners that fund future improvements that benefit other landowners are able to recover their initial up-front funding provided to benefit the other landowners. As previously noted, the City is the administrator of the SPIF Program and will therefore provide oversight during the implementation of the program. The SPIF Program includes an administrative component that is intended to cover all City costs associated with managing and overseeing the SPIF Program. The duties of the Administer of the SPIF Program paid for through the SPIF Program Administration Fee will include assisting the City with updates to the SPIF, assisting the City with reviewing proposed fee credit/reimbursement agreements, tracking all SPIF payments and assigning all fee credit/reimbursements and tracking the progress of construction contracts for SPIF Infrastructure.

The SPIF program includes four (4) separate components; the SPIF Infrastructure Fee, the SPIF Parkland Dedication Fee; the SPIF Public Land Fee and the SPIF Administration Fee. The SPIF Infrastructure Fee contains the following categories of improvements and costs; roadways (on-site and off-site), sanitary sewer facilities, storm drainage facilities, potable water and recycled water facilities, dry utilities and habitat mitigation for the Backbone Infrastructure. A component of the SPIF Infrastructure Fee is a SPIF Infrastructure Fee Set-Aside Fee (Set-Aside Fee). The Set-Aside Fee is intended to help fund a portion of the Phase 1 Water and Phase 1 Sewer Backbone Infrastructure for the FPA. The SPIF Set-Aside Fee will be collected prior to the issuance of the first 2,500 residential building permits in the FPA.

The SPIF Parkland Dedication Fee and the SPIF Public Land Fee components are included to equalize the burden among benefitting FPA landowners for the dedication of both park land and public facility land, respectively. As noted previously, the SPIF Administration Fee component will be used to cover all of the City's cost of implementing, administering and updating the SPIF program.

Recently, City staff and the landowners in the FPA have been working closely to finalize the contents of the remaining SPIF Credit/Reimbursement Agreement for Parkland Dedication (See Attachment 2). The other two (2) SPIF Credit/Reimbursement Agreements for SPIF Infrastructure Fees and SPIF Public Land Fees have already been approved by the City Council with Resolution No, 10091 on March 13, 2018. The SPIF Parkland Dedication Credit/Reimbursement Agreement was not included in this previous City Council approval.

The SPIF Parkland Dedication Credit/Reimbursement Agreement (Agreement) includes language that requires the FPA landowners to grant the future park sites in fee title ownership to the City in order to receive any credits and/or reimbursements for parkland impact fees. However, the First Amended and Restated Tier 1 Development Agreement (ARDA) in regards to parkland fee credits and reimbursements requires all future park sites in the FPA to be graded to less than a 5% grade prior to dedication to and acceptance of the park site by the City. The future park sites in the FPA will require extensive grading and infrastructure improvements to allow for park site development to occur. For example, the Community Park East in the Mangini Ranch Phase 2 development will require over two hundred thousand cubic yards of fill material in order to achieve an acceptable grade for park development. The Agreement commits the FPA landowners (landowners) to complete the required park site grading after such time the park site has been dedicated to the City through an executed irrevocable offer of dedication (TOD). Once the park site grading has been completed by the landowner a formal grant deed transferring fee title ownership of the park site to the City will be required. In addition, the Agreement provides the FPA landowners with an approved Right-of-Entry from the City to complete the required grading.

All of the SPIF Credit/Reimbursement Agreements including the Parkland Dedication Agreement are required to be approved by the City. In addition, the credits/reimbursements are personal to the landowner who is expending the funds necessary to construct and complete the required improvements and therefore do not run with the land. Certain public bidding and prevailing wage requirements will apply to all of the Agreements and reimbursements may be converted to fee credits at the request of the landowner subject to approval by the City through the Agreements. Every development project in the FPA will be required to execute SPIF Credit/Reimbursement Agreements prior to approval of a small lot final map or building permit where no map is required. Since the format of the Agreements including the SPIF Parkland Dedication Credit/Reimbursement Agreement will be consistent throughout the development in the FPA and the Parkland Dedication Agreement has been reviewed for compliance with the SPIF Program by all appropriate City staff, City staff is requesting the City Council to authorize that all future SPIF Credit/Reimbursement Agreements in their approved formats for the FPA be approved by the City Manager.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW

This action is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15061 (b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines.

[LIST DEDICATING OWNER HERE] (LIST PARKLAND DEDICATION AREA HERE]

This Parkland Dedication Credit Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into by and between the City of Folsom (hereinafter the "City") and [list Dedicating Owner here, including form of entity], and/or its successors in interest, (hereinafter the "Dedicating Owner") as of the day of 20 (the "Effective Date").

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Dedicating Owner is the owner and developer of the portion of the Folsom Plan Area commonly referred to as [INSERT NAME OF PROJECT] (the "Project"); and,

WHEREAS, on September 8, 2015, the City Council of City of Folsom adopted Ordinance No. 1235 (the "SPIF Ordinance"), which approved the Folsom Plan Area Specific Plan Infrastructure Fee Program (the "SPIF Fee Program"); implemented SPIF Fees to pay for a variety of public facilities and public facility lands related thereto (the "Fees"), including the parkland fee component designed to equalize the burden of parkland dedications amongst participating Landowners within the Folsom Plan Area (the "Plan Area"). In connection with the adoption of the SPIF Ordinance, the City Council approved a nexus study establishing the relationship between the Fees under the SPIF; and

WHEREAS, City and Dedicating Owner have previously entered into a First Amended and Restated Tier 1 Development Agreement dated July 15, 2014 (and, as may be amended, herein referred to as the "ARDA"), which contains provisions governing the terms for the timing for payment and calculation of the parkland dedication fee component of the SPIF, and which are not intended to be amended in any way by this Agreement. In particular, the ARDA includes provisions whereby an underdedicating owner's obligation to pay the parkland dedication fee (as small-lot final subdivision maps are recorded within its property) may be deferred until the dedication credits associated with any dedicated parkland are exhausted as small-lot final maps are recorded and the dedication credits are applied to satisfy the parkland dedication obligation for such maps; and

WHEREAS, City and Dedicating Owner desire to enter into an agreement to provide for allowable parkland dedication credits (the "Dedication Credits"), if any, in consideration of Dedicating Owner's grant of the Dedication Area to the City consistent with the SPIF Ordinance. The Dedication Credits, at Dedicating Owner's discretion, may be applied against the parkland fee component of the Fees payable under the SPIF as and when small-lot final subdivision maps are recorded within the Dedicating Owner's Property.

entitle Dedicating Owner to receive any payment or reimbursement from the SPIF Fee Program in connection with such Dedication Credits; and

WHEREAS, this Agreement will not apportion any Dedication Credits that Dedicating Owner may elect to apply to any particular real property. Such apportionment shall be accomplished at Dedicating Owner's discretion to any portion or portions of the Dedicating Owner's Property as described herein;

WHEREAS, Section 4.3 of the ARDA provides that any Fee Reimbursement Agreement shall provide that certain provisions of the PFFP and the ARDA (as set forth more particularly below) shall be protected from the effects of any proposed amendments of provisions related to reimbursement and credits, and Section 2.2.1 of the ARDA vests provisions related to the establishment of fee reimbursement and credit provisions.

NOW, THERFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, City and Dedicating Owner agree as follows:

SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS

All capitalized terms not otherwise described herein shall have the meaning described thereto in the SPIF Ordinance.

SECTION 2. RESTATED AGREEMENT IMPLEMENTING VESTED PROVISIONS OF PFFP; MAP OF DEDICATING OWNER'S PROPERTY,

Pursuant to Section 4.3 of the ARDA, the rights of the Dedicating Owner hereunder shall be protected from the effects of any proposed amendments to Sections 2.2.1, 4.2.1, 4.2.2 and 4.3 of the ARDA. City and Dedicating Owner acknowledge the continued application of each of these provisions. This Agreement is intended to implement and not to modify or amend in any way the vested provisions of the PFFP, Appendix 5, or the ARDA related thereto or the provisions of the Study or the SPIF Ordinance.

Consistent with the limitations in Section 4.3 of the ARDA, the "Dedicating Owner's Property," within which Dedication Credits may be applied as credits against any obligation to pay the parkland fee component of the Fee as provided herein, is shown on the map attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Map of Dedicating Owner's Property"), and may also include additional property contiguous thereto, not exceeding five percent (5%) in area, that may hereafter be added to the description thereof by lot line adjustment, subdivision or other such lawful land division as requested by the Dedicating Owner.

SECTION 3. GRANT OF PUBLIC LAND

Dedicating Owner shall grant to City, and the City shall accept, the Dedication Area in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the ARDA. The manner and form of such grant shall be at the City's discretion and direction, which may be by grant deed or other recordable conveyance reasonably requested by City evidencing the grant of fee title ownership to City and the City acceptance thereof. The Dedication Area shall be free of environmental or other constraints or encumbrances inconsistent with the intended uses of the Dedication Area (e.g., any and all wetlands shall be filled in accordance with applicable permits), unless expressly waived by the City, and shall be free and clear of any monetary deeds of trust, mortgages, liens or encumbrances, except for the lien of real property taxes, current and non-delinquent; any non-monetary encumbrances shall be subject to the review and approval of the

Staff Report Page No. 10 of 24

Page 11: CONSENT CALENDAR Agenda Item No.: 7c CC Mtg.: …...Infrastructure Fees and SPIF Public Land Fees have already been approved by the City Council with Resolution No, 10091 on March

City, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld so long as the encumbrance does not impair the ability to install and maintain the public improvements proposed to be located within the Dedication Area.

SECTION 4. ALLOWABLE DEDICATION CREDIT

Pursuant to the Section 3.130.030(E)(2)(b) of the SPIF Ordinance, the amount of the Dedication Area shall be credited against the Project's fair share of the overall parkland requirement in the Plan Area, and after all parkland fee credits have been applied to the area covered by the Project's small lot tentative map, the Dedicating Owner shall thereafter pay the parkland fee component of the Fees for each small lot final map as each map exceeds the parkland dedication credit, prior to recordation of such small lot final map.

City and Dedicating Owner agree that the amount of Parkland Dedication Credits available to Dedicating Owner for its dedication of the Dedication Area hereunder (the "Dedication Credits") shall be based on the net acreage contained within the Dedication Area (net of any roadway dedications). The amount of Dedication Credits for the Dedication Area as of the Effective Date, based on the net acreage contained therein, shall be

( ) acres. Since the Dedication Credits are expressed in acres, no annual inflation adjustments shall be required; only as and when final small lot maps are recorded within the Dedicating Owner's Property and the Dedication Credits are applied in lieu of payment of the parkland dedication fee will the amount of the remaining available Dedication Credits be adjusted.

The obligation arising from this Agreement is not a debt of the City, nor a legal or equitable pledge, charge, lien, or encumbrance, upon any of its property, or upon any of its income, receipts, or revenues, nor does this obligation require any payment from the SPIF Fee Program.

SECTION 5. APPLICATION OF DEDICATION CREDITS

The Dedication Credits may, at the Dedicating Owner's option, be applied against the parkland dedication for any final small-lot maps to be recorded within the Dedicating Owner's Property within the Plan Area for purpose of avoiding and/or reducing the amount of the parkland dedication fee component of the SPIF otherwise payable in connection with the recordation of such maps within said Property, subject to the following conditions:

A. In any event, Dedication Credits may not be assigned or transferred to, or applied against the parkland dedication Fee obligation associated with development of any Plan Area properties other than the Dedicating Owner's Property, as depicted on Exhibit B to this Agreement, and subject to the provisions of Section 2 related to application of Dedication Credits to other contiguous properties not exceeding five percent (5%) in area owned by the Dedicating Owner.

B. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, Dedication Credits may only be used to satisfy the parkland fee component of the Fee obligation associated with the recordation of final small lot maps and may not be applied as credits against any other Fee Components of the SPIF (including the Infrastructure Fee, Public Lands Fee or the SPIF Set-Aside Fee) or for any other purpose.

C. Dedication Credits may be applied against the parkland fee component of the Fee obligation only upon recordation of a grant deed in fee of the Dedication Area to the City in writing in a form acceptable to City.

Subject to compliance with the foregoing conditions, Dedication Credits may be applied against the parkland fee component of the Fee obligation at any time from and after the Effective Date of this Agreement. Any application of the Dedication Credits against the parkland fee component of the Fee obligation shall be made in writing and delivered to the City or Administrator in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C.

SECTION 6. TRANSFERS TO BUILDERS OF DEDICATION CREDITS

Dedication Credits are personal to Dedicating Owner and do not run with the Project that is generating such credits. Provided the Dedicating Owner has no outstanding monetary obligation to the City within the Project Area, and subject to the conditions and limitations in this Agreement, Dedicating Owner may, at its sole option and discretion, transfer any of its Dedication Credits to any builder, developer, or other such entity or person acquiring property within any portion of the Dedicating Owner's Property (herein, a "Credit Transferee"). Any such transfer of Dedication Credits shall be subject to the conditions and limitations herein regarding the application of such Credits, including without limitation, the application thereof only for development within the Dedicating Owner's Property. If Dedicating Owner has an outstanding monetary obligation to the City as noted above, then the City may require the monetary obligation to be met before transfer of the Dedication Credit. Any transfer of Dedication Credits to a Credit Transferee shall be made in writing and delivered to the City Engineer or Administrator for acknowledgment and approval of such transfer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D. City acknowledges that once Dedication Credits have been transferred to a Credit Transferee with the approval of the City, any and all provisions in this Agreement that may reduce the amount of available Dedication Credits or require Dedicating Owner to refund any amount by which applied Dedication Credits exceed the amount of available Dedication Credits shall apply solely to the Dedicating Owner and shall not apply to any approved Credit Transferees or in any way affect or reduce the amount or use of such transferred Dedication Credits by the approved Credit Transferees.

SECTION 7. BREACH BY DEDICATING OWNER.

Any material breach of this Agreement by the Dedicating Owner, including any breach of the Dedicating Owner's covenants in Section 3 above regarding delivery of the Dedication Area free of monetary encumbrances or environmental constraints, may result in termination or reduction of the Dedication Credits (in which case, absent the availability of any other Dedication Credits, the full amount of the parkland fee component of the SPIF would be due as and when required by development of the Dedicating Owner's Property), and may require repayment of any previously applied Dedication Credits, as deemed appropriate by the Administrator. In connection therewith, the Administrator may determine that the Dedicating Owner shall not be entitled to further Dedication Credits until the Dedicating Owner cures any such breach of this Agreement. Any determination by the Administrator and City Engineer to invoke the provisions of this Section shall be subject to the appeal rights set forth in Section 21 of this Agreement. Provided, however, any breach or alleged breach of this Agreement by Dedicating Owner shall not affect or reduce the amount of Dedication Credits previously transferred by Dedicating Owner to a Credit Transferee with the approval of the City pursuant to Section 6 above nor affect the ability of any previously approved Credit Transferee to apply such transferred Dedication Credits against the applicable parkland dedication fee obligation.

SECTION 9. LIENS, CLAIMS, AND ENCUMBRANCES

Prior to the City's acceptance of any Dedication Area, Dedicating Owner shall clear any and all liens, claims and encumbrances from said Dedication Area as a condition of acceptance by the City.

SECTION 10. RIGHT OF ENTRY FOR GRADING AND FRONTAGE IMPROVEMENTS

City acknowledges that Dedicating Owner still needs to grade the Dedication Area and install frontage improvements adjacent to the Dedication Area in connection with development of the Project. Accordingly, in consideration of Dedicating Owner granting the Dedication Area to the City in advance of such work being completed, City agrees that Dedicating Owner shall have the right to enter the Dedication Area to perform such work, subject to the provisions of this Section. Any such work shall be performed by Dedicating Owner, at Dedicating Owner's sole cost and expense, in accordance with grading and improvement plans approved by the City for the applicable work and in accordance with all laws, including prevailing wage laws. Nothing herein shall preclude Dedicating Owner from seeking to recover the costs of construction of any such frontage improvements from the SP1F Fee Program, to the extent recoverable therefrom pursuant to a separate Fee Reimbursement Agreement with the City for such work.

Prior to any entry on the Dedication Area to plan for, grade or construct any improvements, Dedicating Owner shall give City at least five (5) business days prior written notice of its intent to conduct any necessary studies or to perform the work as approved by the City. Such notice shall include certificates of insurance or other such proof of insurance required to be provided to City hereunder. Prior to any such entry and for the duration of such work, Dedicating Owner shall obtain or cause its contractor(s) to obtain public liability, property damage and contractual liability, auto, Workers' Compensation, Builders' Risk Insurance and other insurance coverage consistent with the City's insurance coverage requirements in Exhibit

E attached hereto. The insurance shall name the City as an additional insured. For any claims _ related to work performed on or within the Dedication Area, the Dedicating Owner's or contractor's general liability and automobile insurance coverage shall be primary insurance in their coverage of the City and its officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers, and any insurance or self-insurance maintained by the City, its officers, officials, employees, agents or volunteers shall be excess of the contractor's insurance and shall not contribute with it.

SECTION 11 INDEMNIFICATION

The Dedicating Owner, by execution of this Agreement, specifically agrees to protect and assume the defense of, indemnify and hold harmless City and its elected representatives, officers, employees, agents and consultants (the "Indemnitees"), from and against all liabilities, actions, lawsuits, damages, claims, losses, or expenses of every type and description, including attorneys' and consultants' fees and expenses, (collectively, "Liabilities"), to which they may be subjected or put, by reason of or resulting from any breach of this Agreement by the Dedicating Owner with respect to its dedication of the Dedication Area to the City or by reason of any entry
