The City, the County and the Agency desire to revise their previous agreements so as to allow the Agency to increase the amount of tax increment revenue the Agency receives from the project area in order to undertake additional activities that will be beneficial to implementation of the Central San Rafael Redevelopment Plan. To that end, the Agency staff has presented to the City and the Agency a proposed agreement between the City, the County and the Agency that would provide for the Agency to receive additional tax increment revenue and for the Agency to make certain payments to the County. The execution and implementation of the proposed agreement will benefit the Agency and the City of San Rafael by providing additional funds for implementation of the Central San Rafael Redevelopment Plan. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED as follows: The City Council hereby approves the proposed agreement with the County of Marin and the Agency presented to the City Council and the Agency by the Agency staff and hereby authorizes the City Manager to execute that agreement on behalf of the City subject to such changes that the City Manager deems appropriate and do not materially change the substance of the agreement. I, Jeanne M. Leoncini, City Clerk of the City of San Rafael, hereby certify that the foregoing resolution was duly and regularly introduced and adopted at a special meeting of the City Council on the aj_tj_day of FEBRUARY-, 1991, by the following vote, to wit: AYES: COUNCILMEMBERS Boro, Breiner, Shippey, Thayer & Mayor Mulryan NOES: COUNCILMEMBERS None ABSENT: COUNCILMEMBERS None 141016.P50 'N JEAM". LEONCI I, City Clerk J 1 � i try, � JA[ _� 4 COUNTY/AGENCY FISCAL AGREEMENT This Agreement is made as of , 1991 by and between the San Rafael Redevelopment Agency ("Agency"), the County of Marin, Marin County Open Space District and Marin County Transit District (collectively the "County") and the City of San Rafael ("City"), with reference to the following facts: A. In 1973 the Agency entered into separate but similar agreements (111973 Agreements") with the County, the San Rafael Elementary School District ("ESD"), the San Rafael High School District ("HSD") and the Marin Community College District ("CCD"). Each of those agreements provided for limits on the amount of tax increment revenue the Agency could claim and receive pursuant to the Central San Rafael Redevelopment Plan ("Plan") and Health and Safety Code Section 33670. The tax increment revenue that is available for allocation and payment to the Agency pursuant to the Plan and Health and Safety Code Section 33670 is referred to in this Agreement as "Tax Increment." B. On or about September 11, 1984, the Agency entered into an agreement (111984 Agreement") with the County, the City, ESD, HSD and CCD which superseded the 1973 Agreements and all amendments to the 1973 agreements. On or about December 18, 1984 the 14100X.P50 -1- Agency, the City, the County, ESD, HSD and CCD agreed to an amendment (111984 Amendment") to the 1984 Agreement. The 1984 Agreement and the 1984 Amendment provided for an increase in the Tax Increment the Agency could receive over what would have been permitted under the 1973 Agreements. C. On or about September 11, 1984, the Agency and the County entered into an agreement ("County Agreement") providing for the Agency to make certain payments to the County. D. On or about September 4, 1984 the Agency, ESD, HSD, and CCD entered into an agreement ("Schools Agreement") providing for the Agency to make certain payments to a reserve fund for the potential benefit of ESD, HSD and CCD. Prior to the date of this Agreement, the Agency had made all the payments to the reserve fund required under the Schools Agreement. E. The Marin County Open Space District and the Marin County Transit District were not parties to the prior agreements referred in Paragraphs A, B, C and D, but benefitted from the provisions of those prior agreements. F. The parties wish to revise their previous agreements as set forth herein to reflect changed conditions, to permit the Agency to make improvements that will be of benefit to all the parties 14100X. P50 -2- to this Agreement and to alleviate fiscal burden and detriment to the County. THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 1. Effective Date of Agreement. This Agreement permits the Agency to claim and receive a larger amount of Tax Increment than is permitted pursuant to the 1984 Agreement and the 1984 Amendment. The parties recognize that in order for the Agency to claim and receive such greater amount of Tax Increment, the Agency must also enter into an agreement or agreements with ESD, HSD and CCD permitting the Agency to claim and receive such larger amount of Tax Increment. Therefore, the parties agree that this Agreement will not be effective until the fiscal year ("Effective Fiscal Year") in which the Agency has entered into such an agreement or agreements with ESD, HSD and CCD. This Agreement is expressly conditioned upon approval by the State of California of the joint application of the City of San Rafael and the Marin County Free Library for California Library Construction Bond Act Funds (Proposition 85) and funding of the San Rafael/Marin County Library by the State of california. If for any reason the application is denied or the joint library project is not funded, then this Agreement shall be null and void, and no bonds may be issued pursuant to this agreement. l 4100X. P50 -3- 2. Previous Agreements. Beginning with the Effective Fiscal Year, this Agreement shall supersede the 1973 Agreement, the 1984 Agreement, the 1984 Amendment, the County Agreement, and all amendments to each of those agreements (collectively "Previous Agreements"), and, beginning with the Effective Fiscal Year, the Previous Agreements shall be null and void and of no force or effect. 3. Claim of Increment. In any fiscal year beginning after the Effective Fiscal Year, the Agency shall be entitled to claim and receive Tax Increment in amounts not in excess of the following amounts: (a) The amount necessary to pay the debt service on the Agency tax allocation bonds issued prior to the date of the 1984 Agreement. For the purpose of this subparagraph (a) and subparagraphs (b) and (c) below, the term "debt service" shall mean any amount of principal, interest or other payments the Agency is obligated to pay to the trustee for the bondholders, the bondholders or any other person or entity under the terms of the agreements, indentures or resolutions governing the bonds; (b) The amount necessary to pay the debt service on the Agency tax allocation bonds issued after the date 14100X.P50 -4- of the 1984 Agreement and prior to the date of this Agreement; (c) The amount necessary to pay debt service on bonds issued by the Agency in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 4 below; (d) The amount necessary to meet the Agency's obligations under Health and Safety Code Sections 33334.2 and 33334.6; (e) The amount necessary to pay the Project Costs (as defined in Paragraph 4 below) that are not funded or not expected to be funded from the proceeds of bonds issued by the Agency in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 4 below; (f) The amount necessary to make the payments to the County specified in Paragraph 5 below; and (g) The amount, if any, necessary to make payments to ESD, HSD or CCD pursuant to an agreement or agreements between the Agency and ESD, HSD or CCD ("Potential Schools Agreements") providing for the Agency to pay a 14100X.1150 -5- portion of the Tax Increment to or for the benefit of ESD, HSD or CCD. The claim and receipts described in subparagraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d) above shall be senior to and have priority over all other claims and receipts. The claim and receipts described in subparagraph (f) shall be senior to and have priority over any claim or receipt pursuant to subparagraphs (e) and (g) above or any other claim or receipt other than those specified in subparagraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d) above; provided, however, that the claim and receipts described in subparagraph (f) may be on a parity with the claims and receipts described in subparagraph (g) under the conditions specified in Paragraph 6 below. The County shall pay to the Agency the Tax Increment for the Effective Fiscal Year even if the Agency has not or does not submit a timely claim therefor pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33675. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (i) the total amount of Tax Increment paid to the Agency over the life of the Plan (including amounts paid prior to the date of this Agreement) shall not exceed $240 million. 4. Issuance of Bonds. Beginning in the Effective Fiscal Year, the Agency may issue bonds for the purpose of paying the cost of carrying out the projects described in the attached 14100X.1'50 -6- Exhibit A ("Project Costs"), provided, however, that the Agency may only issue such bonds if, at the time the Agency proposes to issue the bonds: (i) the Agency reasonably expects that the annual amount of Tax Increment or other revenue sources or assets providing security for payment of the bonds will be sufficient to pay annually the sum of the debt service on bonds previously issued by the Agency, the Agency's obligations under Health and Safety Code Sections 33334.2 and 33334.6 to the extent not funded with the proceeds of bonds, the payment to the County pursuant to Paragraph 5 below, and payments, if any, of Tax Increment pursuant to Potential Schools Agreements, and (ii) the ratio of the sum of the annual debt service on the proposed bonds and the annual debt service on outstanding bonds previously issued by the Agency to the amount of Tax Increment the Agency could claim and receive in the fiscal year in which the bonds are proposed to be issued is equal to or less than the ratio of the sum of "Annual Debt Service -Existing Issues" for that fiscal year as shown on the chart attached hereto as Exhibit B and "Annual Debt Service - New Issues" for that fiscal year as shown on the chart attached hereto as Exhibit B to "Projected Tax Increment" for that fiscal year as shown on the chart attached hereto as Exhibit B. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Paragraph 4, (i) prior to December 31, 1993, the Agency shall not issue any bonds secured by a pledge of Tax Increment if the issuance of such bonds would cause the total amount of bonds issued by the Agency 14100X.P50 -7- pursuant to this Paragraph 4 and secured by a pledge of Tax Increment to exceed $5.3 million; (ii) prior to December 31, 1997, the Agency shall not issue any bonds secured by a pledge of Tax Increment if the issuance of such bonds would cause the total amount of bonds issued by the Agency and secured by a pledge of Tax Increment to exceed $10.6 million; and (iii) prior to the end of the term of this Agreement, the Agency shall not issue any bonds secured by a pledge of Tax Increment if the issuance of such bonds would cause the total amount of bonds issued by the Agency pursuant to this Paragraph 4 and secured by a pledge of Tax Increment to exceed $17.945 million. For the purposes of the previous sentence, refunding bonds shall not be considered issuance of bonds by the Agency and any bonds involving a pledge of Tax Increment which is subordinate to the Agency's obligation to the County under Paragraph 5 below shall not be considered issuance of bonds by the Agency. At least sixty (60) days prior to the issuance of bonds pursuant to this Paragraph 4, Agency shall notify the County of its intent to issue such bonds, and shall provide the County with the Agency bond sizing analysis and all other fiscal information relative to the Agency's determination that the bond issuance is reasonable pursuant to this Paragraph 4. The bond sizing analysis and other relevant fiscal information shall be submitted to an independent financial analyst approved by both Agency and County for determination whether there exists a reasonable expectation that all the 1410OX-PSO -8- Agency's obligations mentioned herein will be met. The Agency will not issue any bonds in excess of those approved by the independent financial analyst. In no event shall the Agency issue any bonds which would be retired after the year 2020. The parties recognize that the cost listed in Exhibit A for the specific projects listed therein are estimates, and that the actual cost for any particular project may be less than or greater than the cost listed in Exhibit A; therefore the parties agree that any amount reasonably needed for a particular project shall be considered a Project Cost even if such amount is in excess of the estimated cost of that project as set forth in Exhibit A. 5. Annual Payment to County. (a) From the Tax Increment paid to the Agency, the Agency shall pay to the County in each fiscal year an amount equal to (i) the annual property tax allocation factor for the County (as determined pursuant to Chapter 6 of Part 0.5 of Division 1 of the Revenue and Taxation Code or successor provisions of law) with respect to the project area governed by the Plan multiplied by the amount claimed and received by the Agency pursuant to subparagraphs (b), (c), (d), (e) and (g) of Paragraph 3 above, less (ii) the amount of $150,000 upon execution of a mutually acceptable agreement between the Agency and County pertaining to 14100X.P50 -9- construction of a library and only for so long as provided in that agreement. (b) The Agency shall claim the amount owing to the County in a particular fiscal year pursuant to subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 5 as indebtedness to be paid with Tax Increment. The payment to the County pursuant to subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 5 shall only be paid from the Tax Increment received by the Agency pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33670 and shall only be paid to the extent that the Agency receives Tax Increment in excess of the amounts received pursuant to subparagraphs (a), (b), (c) and (d) of Paragraph 3 above. In the event the Agency enters into Potential Schools Agreements, the obligations of the Agency to make payments to the County pursuant to this Paragraph 5, shall have priority over the Agency's obligation to make payments of Tax Increment pursuant to the Potential Schools Agreement except as provided in Paragraph 6 below. (c) If any payment to County is ever less than the amount required by this Agreement, the shortfall shall accrue to the benefit of the County with interest computed pursuant to Code Civ. Proc. §1268.350, and ] 4] OOX.P50 -10- shall be paid to the County as soon as Agency receives Tax Increment in excess of the amounts received pursuant to subparagraphs (a), (b), (c), (d) and (f) of Paragraph 3 above. (d) To accomplish the payments to the County pursuant to this Paragraph 5, the Agency and County agree that, in lieu of the County payment of Tax Increment to the Agency and the Agency thereafter making the payment required pursuant to this Paragraph 5 to the County, the County may, at the time it makes a payment of Tax Increment to the Agency, withhold from the amount of Tax Increment paid to the Agency and thereafter retain the amount owing to the County pursuant to this Paragraph 5. The County shall, at the time it makes a payment of Tax Increment to the Agency, provide to the Agency a detailed statement setting forth the calculations of the amount of Tax Increment and the amount being withheld for the County pursuant to this Paragraph 5. Nothing in this Paragraph 5 is intended to preclude the Agency from disputing the amount of Tax Increment payable to the Agency or the amount payable to the County pursuant to this Paragraph 5. 6. Contents of Potential schools Agreements. The Agency agrees that in the Potential Schools Agreements the Agency will not, without the consent of the County, agree to make payments to 14100X.1'50 -11- ESD, HSD, or CCD from future Tax Increment in order to compensate those districts for a loss of revenue due to future changes in state law governing the system for State of California subventions to school districts. However, the Agency and County agree that the Potential Schools Agreements may provide for payments to ESD, HSD, or CCD from Tax Increment to compensate for the fact that the district is a "basic aid" district which does not receive state subventions, for payments to ESD, HSD, or CCD from Tax Increment in the Effective Fiscal Year, and for similar payments to ESD, HSD, or ESD which do not involve the possibility of the Agency compensating for a loss of revenue due to future changes in state law governing the system of subventions to school districts or similar contingencies. The Agency shall submit a Potential Schools Agreement to the County for approval which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld if the Potential Schools Agreement conforms to the parameters outlined above in this Paragraph 6. If the County approves a Potential School Agreement pursuant to this Paragraph 6, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Agency's obligation to make payments from Tax Increment to a District pursuant to that Potential Schools Agreement shall be on a parity with the Agency's obligation to make payments from Tax Increment to the County pursuant to this Agreement. If the County approves a Potential Schools Agreement pursuant to this Paragraph 6, then, thereafter, the Agency shall not amend that Potential Schools Agreement to increase the amount of payments 1410OX.P50 -12- from Tax Increment to a district without first obtaining the approval of the county to that amendment. 7. Parties to Future Amendments. The consent and agreement of the City, ESD, HSD or CCD to any future amendment to this Agreement shall not be required. 8. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the later of the end of the term of the Plan or the date when all tax allocation bonds issued by the Agency are paid and discharged. 9. Intention of Agreement. It is the intent of the parties that the annual sum of the amount the Agency pays to the County pursuant to this Agreement plus the amount of property tax revenue the County receives from property in the Project Area shall not be less than the annual sum of the amount the Agency would have paid the County pursuant to the 1984 Agreement, 1984 Amendment and County Agreement. If any reduction in the amount received from the County or fiscal burden to the County results from decreases in value of property in the Project Area, decreases in the property tax rate in the Project Area, changes in the structure of the property tax system under state law, or other event relating to the tax increment provisions of the Plan, the parties shall meet and confer in good faith to amend this Agreement to alleviate any fiscal burden placed on the County as a consequence of this Agreement and the changed circumstances. lo. Legal Authority and Indemnification. The Agency warrants that it will comply with all applicable laws in issuing bonds or carrying out projects contemplated by this Agreement. The Agency hereby agrees, at its own expense, to defend the 14100X.P50 -13- County and to hold harmless and indemnify the County against any losses the County may incur by reason of any third party claim or suit that arises directly as a result of this Agreement or as a result of the activities of the Agency to carry out the Plan; provided, however, this indemnity shall not extend to any claim or suit arising from the intentional or negligent act or failure to act on the part of the County. 11. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts.
