Ordinance No. FD 51 -Page 3 of 16
EXHIBIT A
RATE AND METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF SPECIAL TAX
The Resolution of Intention generally sets forth the rate and method of apportionment of
the special taxes to allow each property owner within the CFD to estimate the maximum
annual amount that would be required for payment.
A. Definitions
Pursuant to the terms of the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, the
facilities/services special tax to be levied is described as follows:
facilities - to provide the funds or secure the indebtedness for the capital
improvements for Stations Nos. 3, 4 and 5 for the CFD.
services - to pay the additional costs and expenses of the operation and
maintenance within the CFD for Stations Nos. 3, 4 and 5.
The facilities/services special tax shall only be levied on those private properties which
are developed and are within the boundaries of this CFD. Vacant property shall not be
subject to this special tax.
Developed property is defined to be property
• which is not owned by a public or governmental agency
• which is not vacant
• where a certificate of occupancy or utility release from the City of Rancho
Cucamonga or the County of San Bernardino has been issued
• which has an existing building or structure onsite
• which does not have as its sole use power transmission towers, railroad tracks,
and floor control facilities -these properties are exempt. Areas granted as
easements to power transmission towers, railroad tracks, and flood control
facilities shall be subtracted from the total acreage of the underlying lot and shall
be exempt.
B. Prooertv Use
Once the determination is made that the property is developed, it shall be assigned one
of the following categories:
• residential -single-family
• residential -multi-family
• commercial
• industrial
Ordinance No. FD 51 -Page 4 of 16
The special tax has corresponding taxing levels identifiable to differences in their specific
needs for fire suppression.
C. Building Tvpe -Single/Multi-Story
If the subject property falls into the commercial or industrial category, two additional
determinations must be made. First, if it is multi-story, and second, if the structure has a
qualifying sprinkler system, as defined by the District.
Amulti-floored structure is defined to be a structure consisting of complete, separate
stories (may include a basement) excluding the main, ground floor of the building.
Multi-floored structures shall be subject to two different rates per square foot. The main,
ground floor shall be the same cents per square foot as shown in the special tax as
follows:
Commercial $.04/sf
Industrial $.05/sf
For every separate floor above or below the main, ground floor, the reduced rate in
applicable cents per square foot, by category use, is as follows:
Commercial $.03/sf
Industrial $.04/sf
Buildings which have special structural variations and unique facilities shall be reviewed
for taxing clarity by the District Review/Appeal Board which will be appointed by the
Board of Directors of the District as part of those proceedings.
D. Sprinkler Credit
Structures in the commercial and industrial use category shall be granted a reduction in
their amount per square foot portion of the special tax, if complete sprinkler systems are
installed, as defined by the District.
The reduced rate shall be as follows:
Without Sprinklers With Sprinklers
Commercial $.04/sf $.03/sf
Industrial $.05/sf $.04/sf
At such time that full sprinkler systems are proposed to be installed within residential
uses, the Board of Directors shall give applicable sprinkler credit for such uses'
consideration.

This chart is applicable to only the commercial and industrial portions of the special tax and
modifies only that portion of the formula which specifies the cents per square foot amount.
The dollar per acre fee remains as applicable.
E. Formulas
To finance the facilities and services within the CFD and expenses incidental thereto, the
maximum special tax shall be as follows:
Maximum Tax Limitation for Facilities/Services Costs
Range
Residential
($75) perdu`
Multi-Family 2 du: 1.75 ($75)
3 du: 2.25 ($75)
4 du: 2.65 ($75)
5 - 14 du: 2.65 ($75) + [ .35(tu - 4)($75)]
15 - 30 du: 6.15 ($75) + [ .30(tu - 14)($75)]
31 - 80 du: 10.65 ($75) + [ .25(tu - 30)($75)]
81 - up du: 23.15 ($75) + [ .20(tu - 80)($75)]
Commercial ($75) per acre + $.04 per sf
Industrial ($75) per acre + $.OS per sf
' DU =Dwelling Unit
Ordinance No. FD 51 -Page 6 of 16
F. Explanation of Formulas
The special tax forrnula for facilities and services is calculated as follows:
1. Residential =Single-Family Dwelling Units
The maximum special tax shall be calculated at $75 per dwelling unit (DU) per
year.
2. Residential -Multi-Family Dwelling Units
The maximum tax shall be calculated as follows:
Determine the total units (tu) involved
Locate the appropriate range of to on the multi-family portion of the
formula
Resulting dollar amount derived from formula is the maximum special tax
per to per year
Example
Multi-Family Units Involved: 40 to
Appropriate range 31 - 80 du
10.65($75.00) + [.25(40 - 30)($75.00)]
10.65($75.00) + [.25(10)($75.00)]
10.65($75.00) +[2.50(($75.00)]
798.75 + [187.50] _ $986.25 per year
If the above 40 to were not subject to the multi-family formula but were taxed as
a straight $75 perdu, the maximum special tax would be $3,000 per year instead
of $986.25.
Graph No. 1 illustrates the relationship of the special tax and density if the multi-
family formula is not implemented. The dollar per year would increase as the
density (tu) increases.
Recognizing the need to establish a relationship within the CFD which reflects a
decrease in the total dollar as the density (tu) increases, the multi-family formula
was created. Graph No. 2 reflects the relationship between the total special tax
and density to be implemented within the CFD by the multi-family formula. The
special tax decreases as the density (tu) increases. For specific multi-family
residential unit dollars as applied within the formula, reference is hereby made to
Exhibit C hereinafter enclosed. Exhibit C (special tax perdu) reflects what the
special tax equivalent would be to one single-family residential unit for total units
1 through 99.
Ordinance No. FD 51 -Page 7 of 16
3. Commercial/Industrial
The maximum special tax shall be calculated as follows:
- Determine net acreage of parcel
- Determine whether it is to qualify for multi-floor credit
- Determine whether it is to qualify for sprinkler credit
- Insert appropriate quantities within "commercial" formula: solve
- Resultant of formula is the maximum special tax per year

G. Revenue Projection
Based upon the maximum special tax to be applied within the CFD, the projected
revenue to be generated can be seen on Exhibit D. The quantities for the number of
single-family, multi-family, commercial/industrial square footages and acres used in
Exhibit D are based upon a combination of both existing and projected development
information from the City of Rancho Cucamonga, Lewis Development Company, The
William Lyon Company, and The Caryn Development Company. Since existing and
proposed quantities cannot at this time be specific, the dollar amounts generated on
Exhibit D are assumed to be the lower end dollar generation amounts.
Graph No. 3 represents the relationship between the cumulative dollar amounts
generated in projected years.
H. Limitations on Annual Levy of Special Tax
The levy of the special tax shall be based upon an annual determination by the Board of
Directors of the amount of other revenues available to meet budget requirements. As
used here, "available revenues" shall include ad valorem taxes, State augmentation, tax
increment revenues received from any redevelopment agency, and any other source of
revenue except the special tax. The Board of Directors will take all responsible steps to
retain maximum redevelopment agency funding to which, by agreement, they may
lawfully receive. To the extent available revenues are insufficient to meet budget
requirements, the Board of Directors may levy the special tax. For further particulars,
reference is hereby made to the amended report on file with the District.
Annual Adjustment -Special Tax
The maximum special tax shall be annually adjusted for:
a. changes in cost of living; or
b. changes in cost of living and changes in population as defined in Section 7901 of
the Government Code, as amended, whichever is lesser.
