SUBJECT: INITIATION OF ANNEXATION NO. 18 TO COMMUNITY FACILITIES
DISTRICT NO. 2005-1 (PUBLIC SAFETY SERVICES)
FROM: David H. Ready, City Manager
BY: Engineering Services Department
SUMMARY
The City Council established Community Facilities District 2005-1 (Public Safety
Services) (CFD 2005-1) in October 2005, in order to levy a special tax on properties
identified as "fee status" (non-Indian Allottee Leased or non-Tribal Trust properties)
located within the City to provide a financing mechanism to sustain the delivery of public
safety services to new residential developments located on those properties. This
action declares the City Council's intention to annex additional properties identified as
Annexation No. 18 (for Tract Map No. 37245 — "Enclave at Baristo"). This action also
schedules a Public Hearing for January 3, 2018, to officially annex these additional
properties into CFD 2005-1.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution No. "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, DECLARING ITS INTENTION TO ANNEX
TERRITORY INTO A COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT AND TO AUTHORIZE THE
LEVY OF SPECIAL TAXES FOR CITY OF PALM SPRINGS COMMUNITY FACILITIES
DISTRICT NO. 2005-1, (PUBLIC SAFETY SERVICES), ANNEXATION NO. 18,
ENCLAVE AT BARISTO, TRACT MAP NO. 37245".
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Community Facilities District 2005-1 (Public Safety Services) (CFD 2005-1), which
levies a special tax on certain "fee status" properties identified as non-Indian Allottee
Leased or Tribal Trust properties and located within the City, is authorized under the
Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982. The City envisioned the participation of all
future new residential development projects on "fee status" lands, either by formation of
new districts or as an annexation into CFD 2005-1.
ITEM NO. 1
City Council Staff Report
November 15, 2017 -- Page 2
Initiation of Annexation No. 18—"Enclave at Baristo"TM 37245 to CFD 2005-1
New residential developments on "fee status" lands that have been approved by the
City are conditionally approved with a requirement to annex into CFD 2005-1.
Community Facilities District 2007-1 (Public Safety Services) (CFD 2007-1), was
established for developments located on Indian Allottee Leased or Tribal Trust lands
that cannot be annexed into the existing CFD 2005-1 due to their unique ownership
status. The two CFD's are separate and distinct.
The following annexation into CFD 2005-1 is recommended for the residential
development approved on "fee status" land:
Annexation No. 18 — Tract Map No. 37245, identified as "Enclave at Baristo," a
residential development consisting of 30 single-family residences.
The location map with a 500' buffer for the development is shown in Figure 1.

City Council Staff Report
November 15, 2017— Page 4
Initiation of Annexation No. 18—"Enclave at Baristo"TM 37245 to CFD 2005-1
The City Council is required to adopt a Resolution of Intention in order to initiate the
annexation process. This Resolution sets forth terms and conditions for annexing
properties into CFD 2005-1 and includes the rate and method of apportionment of the
special tax to be levied. This Resolution also schedules a Public Hearing on the
proposed annexation, which by statute must be held within 30-60 days following the
adoption of this Resolution. In accordance with this requirement, staff recommends that
the Public Hearing be scheduled for January 3, 2018. Pursuant to the Mello-Roos
Community Facilities Act of 1982, there are less than 12 registered voters in each of the
properties to be annexed into CFD 2005-1. The special election will be a landowner
vote within the annexation.
Prior to the public hearing, property owners within the annexation will return a petition
with waivers to the City, waiving certain timing and noticing requirements related to
Election Code. This will enable the City to expedite the annexation process by
conducting the special election immediately after the January 3, 2018, Public Hearing.
The City Council also establishes the boundaries of the territory to be annexed into CFD
2005-1 through the Resolution of Intention.
The special tax currently being assessed on properties within CFD 2005-1 is based
upon a Fiscal Impact Analysis that was prepared by MuniFinancial. Based on this
analysis, the Fiscal Year 2017/18 special tax for a single-family residence is $429.54
per year, and will increase by the annual escalation factor until it reaches the maximum
of $500 per year. The Fiscal Year 2017/18 special tax for a multi-family residence is
$362.04, and cannot exceed the maximum of$500. The special tax is collected as part
of the Riverside County annual property tax bill.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The requested City Council action is not a 'Project' as defined by the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Pursuant to Section 15378(a), a "Project' means the
whole of an action, which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change
in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the
environment. The requested action is to authorize annexation of certain properties into
CFD 2005-1, and is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15378(b), in that a "Project'
does not include: (5) Organizational or administrative activities of governments that will
not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Following annexation of the residential development into CFD 2005-1, after construction
of the units (issuance of building permits), the special tax to be levied within the
development will generate an additional $12,886 annually, based on the Fiscal Year
2017/18 rates, to be used specifically for public safety services.

5. Multiple Land Use Classes
In some instances an Assessor's Parcel may contain more than one Land Use
Class. The Maximum Special Tax levied on an Assessor's Parcel shall be the sum

D. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF THE SPECIAL TAX
Commencing with Fiscal Year 2006-07, and for each subsequent Fiscal Year, the
District Administrator shall calculate the Special Tax Requirement based on the
definitions in Section A and levy the Special Tax as follows until the amount of the
Special Tax levied equals the Special Tax Requirement. First, the Special Tax shall be
levied each Fiscal Year on each Assessor's Parcel of Developed Property
Proportionately between Developed Single-Family Residence and Developed Multi-
Family Residence up to 100% of the applicable Maximum Special Tax. Second, if the
Special Tax Requirement has not been satisfied by the first step, then the Special Tax
shall be levied each Fiscal Year on each Assessor's Parcel of Entitled Property up to
100% of the applicable Maximum Special Tax for Entitled Property. Lastly, if the first two
steps have not satisfied the Special Tax Requirement, then the Special Tax shall be
levied each Fiscal Year on each Assessor's Parcel of Undeveloped Property up to 100%
of the applicable Maximum Special Tax for Undeveloped Property.
E. APPEALS
Any tax payer that believes that the amount of the Special Tax assigned to an
Assessor's Parcel is in error may file a written notice with the District Administrator
appealing the levy of the Special Tax. This notice is required to be filed with the District
Administrator during the Fiscal Year the error is believed to have occurred. The District
Administrator or designee will then promptly review the appeal and, if necessary, meet
with the taxpayer. If the District Administrator verifies that the tax should be changed the
Special Tax Levy shall be corrected and, if applicable in any case, a refund shall be
granted.
F. EXEMPTIONS
1. Residential Property
Residential Properties which annually meet one or more of the following standards
shall be exempt from payment of the Special Tax:
a. A Residential Property consisting of one or two person(s) earning $15,300 or less
gross income per year, upon complying with procedures to establish such
exemption, or

The City is authorized and directed to promulgate administrative rules and procedures
for verification of eligibility for the exemptions referred to in section F.
G. MANNER OF COLLECTION
Special Tax as levied pursuant to Section D above shall be collected in the same
manner and at the same time as ordinary ad valorem property taxes; provided, however,
that the District Administrator may directly bill the Special Tax, many collect Special
Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if necessary to meet the financial
obligations of the District or as otherwise determined appropriate by the District
Administrator.
H. TERM OF SPECIAL TAX
Every Five years after the establishment of the District, the City Council may reexamine,
if deemed necessary by City Council, the necessity of the continuance of the Special
Tax through the preparation of a Fiscal Impact Analysis, otherwise the Special Tax shall
be levied in perpetuity.
