City Attorney James Markman noted that the proposed action specifically identifies the source of
funds, which is the 2004 Tax Allocation Bonds.
In response to Mayor Michael, Mrs. Daniels noted that the Department of Finance has
disapproved this request as there was not a contact in place at the time the legislation was
enacted. She noted that there is a risk that if we proceed with this action and it is not approved by
the Department of Finance and the subsequent lawsuit is not successful, that the City will need to
fund this expense in another manner.
In response to Mayor Michael, City Attorney James Markman indicated that other cities have been
identified in multiple counties that would join the City of Rancho Cucamonga in a lawsuit, if
needed.
Council Member Buquet noted for the audience that the City issued the tax allocation bonds in
2004 with the expressed intent to complete capital improvements. We are currently constructed
the municipal yard, which is being stopped due to a technicality. The City is being forced to take
this action.
