The District consists of Tract No. 33846 and is located south of Lakeshore Drive, west of Machado, east of Terra Cotta Road and North of Zieglinder Drive. SAM-MaKenna, LLC, is the landowner within the District (the “Developer”).The development within the District is expected to include approximately 81 single family homes at build-out. While the District was formed in 2007, homebuilding has not yet commenced. Due to revisions in the proposed product mix within the District, the Developer requested and the District undertook proceedings to amend the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Taxes, increase the amount of bonded indebtedness authorized to be incurred by the District and revise the term of the special tax levy to be 40 years from fiscal year 2017-18. In connection therewith, the Developer has agreed to annex its property into Community Facilities District No. 2015-1 of the City of Lake Elsinore (Safety Services) (“CFD 2015-1”) (the “Annexation”).The District is currently in CFD 2007-1 (Law Enforcement, Fire and Paramedic Services). In Annexation to CFD 2015-1 January 24, 2017 Page 2 of 2 connection with the Annexation, the City will cancel the existing special tax lien of CFD 2007-1 within the District. On December 13, 2016, the City Council, acting as the legislative body of CFD 2015-1, adopted a resolution declaring its intention to annex the District into CFD 2015-1. The proceedings to undertaken at this meeting will complete the proposed Annexation of property to CFD 2015-1. Documents to be Approved Following the public hearing to be held, approval of the first resolution will call for an election to be held with respect to the Annexation. The City has received a certificate of the Registrar of Voters certifying that there are less than 12 Registered Voters residing with the District during the 90 days prior to the time of the public hearing. Accordingly, the election to be held will be a landowner election pursuant to which the landowners are the sole eligible voters within the District. SAM-Mckenna LLC has also executed a consent and waiver to certain election law requirements and to allow the election to be conducted immediately following the public hearing. Following the holding of the election, the City Council will be asked to certify the election results and assuming the passage of the propositions, the property within the District will be annexed to CFD 2015-1 and the City Clerk will be instructed to record a notice of special tax lien of CFD 2015-1 on the property within the District. The property within the District will thereafter be subject to the special tax levy of CFD 2015-1. Fiscal Impact The Developer has made a deposit to pay for the costs of the Annexation. CFD 2015-1 will annually levy special taxes on all of the taxable property within the District in accordance with the Rate and Method of Apportionment in order to pay for the costs of services and administration of CFD 2015-1.
