Procedure: If the Successor Agency identified that future revenues together with balances dedicated or restricted to an enforceable obligation are insufficient to fund future obligation payments and thus retention of current balances is required, obtain from the Successor Agency a schedule of approved enforceable obligations that include a projection of the annual spending requirements to satisfy each obligation and a projection of the annual revenues available to fund those requirements. Compare the enforceable obligations to those that were approved by the California Department of Finance for the six month period from January 1, 2012 through June 30, 2012 and for the six month period July 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012.

Obtain the Successor Agency's assumptions for the forecasted annual revenues. Disclose the major assumptions for the forecasted annual spending requirements and the forecasted annual revenues in this AUP report. Finding: This procedure is not applicable as the Successor Agency did not identify any assets to be retained under this procedure. 8C. Procedure: If the Successor Agency identified that projected property tax revenues and other general purpose revenues to be received by the Successor Agency are insufficient to pay bond debt service payments (considering both the timing and amount of the related cash flows), obtain a schedule demonstrating this insufficiency. Compare the timing and amounts of bond debt service payments to the related bond debt service schedules in the bond agreement. Obtain the assumptions for the forecasted property tax revenues and other general purpose revenues and disclose them in this AUP report. Finding: This procedure is not applicable as the Successor Agency did not identify any assets to be retained under this procedure. 8D. Procedure: If Procedures 8A, 8B and 8C were performed, calculate the amount of unrestricted balances necessary for retention in order to meet enforceable obligations. Combine the amount identified as currently restricted balances and the forecasted annual revenues to arrive at the amount of total resources available to fund enforceable obligations. Reduce the total resources available by the amount of forecasted annual spending requirements. Include the calculation in this AUP report. 7 SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE LAKE ELSINORE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY ATTACHMENT A - AGREED -UPON PROCEDURES AND FINDINGS RELATED TO ALL OTHER FUNDS 11.
