corporation (the "City") and CUCAMONGA VALLEY WATER DISTRICT, a county water
district (the"Water District").
RECITALS :
(a) The City Council of the City, at the request of William Lyon Homes, Inc. as the
owner (the "Owner") of certain property in the City and Water District located generally north of
Foothill Boulevard, east of Etiwanda Avenue and west of East Avenue in the City and more

of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the Government Code (the "Mello-Roos Act") to include the
Property for the purpose of financing the construction of certain public facilities to be owned by
various public entities (the "Public Facilities") necessary to serve new development within the
Property (the "Project"). Such community facilities district has been designated as City of
Rancho Cucamonga Community Facilities District No. 2006-02 (Amador on Route 66) (the
"CFD"). The City has also initiated proceedings proposing to authorize the issuance of bonds to
be secured by the levy of special taxes within the CFD in an amount expected to be sufficient to
finance the acquisition or construction of the Public Facilities.
(b) The Owner has requested that certain water and sewer facilities to be owned and
operated by the Water District and which are necessary to provide water and sewer service to the
Project be included among the Public Facilities to be financed by the CFD. The Water District, as
the public agency responsible for providing water and sewer service to the Project, and the
Owner have agreed that the Owner will construct or cause the construction of such water and
sewer facilities (the "Owner Constructed Water District Facilities"), all as described in Exhibit B
attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
(c) The Water District levies and collects water and sewer capacity fees (collectively,
the "Water District Capacity Fees") as a condition precedent to the approval of the provision of
water and sewer service to new development within the Water District, including the Project, to
finance the construction of the water and sewer facilities and the acquisition of capacity in
existing facilities (the "Water District Capacity Facilities" and, together with the Owner
Constructed Water District Facilities, the "Water District Facilities") described in Exhibit B
necessary to provide capacity in the Water District's water and sewer systems to serve such new
I

development. The Owner has requested that the CFD finance the construction and acquisition of
the Owner Constructed Water District Facilities and the construction and acquisition of the
Water District Capacity Facilities that would otherwise be financed with the proceeds of the
Water District Capacity Fees.
(d) The Water District also collects fees (the "Agency Capacity Fees") for and on
behalf of the Inland Empire Utilities Agency, a municipal water district (the "Agency"), which
are required by the Agency as a condition precedent to the approval of new development within
the Agency, including the Project, to finance regional wastewater treatment facilities (the
"Agency Capacity Facilities") necessary to provide the treatment capacity within the Agency's
wastewater treatment facilities to serve such new development. The Owner has requested that the
CFD finance the Agency Capacity Facilities that would otherwise be funded with the proceeds of
the Agency Capacity Fees.
(e) The City desires to assist the Water District and the Agency by financing through
the CFD (i) the acquisition or construction of the Owner Constructed Water District Facilities;
(ii) the construction and acquisition of the Water District Capacity Facilities in the approximate

the Project) based upon the Water District's 2006 fee schedule for 99 single family homes (the
"Water District Capacity Facilities Amount"); and (iii) the construction and acquisition of the
Agency Capacity Facilities in the approximate amount of exceed $156,000 based on the
Agency's 2006 fee schedule for 99 single family homes (the "Agency Capacity Facilities
Amount"). In exchange for the receipt of the Water District Capacity Facilities Amount, the
Water District agrees to grant a credit in an amount equal to the funds actually received by the
Water District from the bond proceeds of the CFD pursuant to this Agreement in the payment of
the Water District Capacity Facilities Amount to be applied against the Water District Capacity
Fees charged by the Water District in connection with the development of the Project. In
exchange for the receipt of the Agency Capacity Facilities Amount, the Water District will,
subject to the approval of the Agency, grant a credit in an amount equal to the funds actually
received by the Water District from the bond proceeds of the CFD pursuant to this Agreement in
payment of the Agency Capacity Facility Amount to be applied against the Agency Capacity Fees
in connection with the development of the Project.
(f) The Water District has reviewed the Water District Facilities and represents that
the construction of such facilities is required by the Water District as a condition of regulatory
approval by the Water District of the development of the Project.
(g) Pursuant to Sections 53316.2, 53316.4 and 53316.6 of the Government Code, (i) a
community facilities district may finance facilities to be owned or operated by an entity other
than the agency that created the community facilities district pursuant to a joint community
facilities agreement or a joint exercise of powers agreement adopted pursuant to Section 53316.2;
(ii) a party to such an agreement may use the proceeds of any bonds or other indebtedness issued
pursuant to the Mello-Roos Act to provide facilities which that party is otherwise authorized by
