Encinitas Sanitation District, and San Dieguito Water District, and is authorized under said
Agreement and under the laws of the State of California to finance the acquisition and

WHEREAS, the City has requested the Authority to issue its bonds for the
purpose of providing funds to enable the City to refinance the acquisition of land to be used as a
public park (the "2001 Project'); and
WHEREAS, the Authority has previously issued its 2010 Lease Revenue
Refunding Bonds, Series A (Park Project) (the "2010 Bonds") in an original principal amount of
$19,530,000; and
WHEREAS, the 2010 Bonds were issued for the purpose of refunding the cost of
acquiring the 2001 Project which 2010 Bonds are payable from lease payments to be paid to the
26353,00015�29414950A
Authority by the City pursuant to an Amended and Restated Lease Agreement between the City
and Encinitas Public Financing Authority dated August 1, 2010 (the "2010 Lease Agreement");
and
WHEREAS, to defease and redeem the 2010 Bonds, if financially feasible, the
Authority proposes to issue its lease revenue bonds (the "Bonds") in an aggregate principal
amount of not to exceed $15,000,000 under the provisions of Article 4 (commencing with
Section 6584) of Chapter 5 of Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code of the State of

refinancing of the 2001 Project (the "Lease Agreement"); and

and used to prepay the lease payments to be made under the 2010 Lease Agreement and defease
and redeem the 2010 Bonds; and
WHEREAS, the Authority has determined that the Bonds should be initially
offered for sale on a competitive basis and there has been presented to the Authority a form of
notice of sale to be used in connection with the sale thereof; and
WHEREAS, in order to maintain the maximum flexibility in the sale of the
Bonds during the current fluctuating conditions in the municipal bond market, the Authority has
further determined to authorize, as an alternative to offering the Bonds for sale on a competitive
basis, that the Bonds be offered for sale on a negotiated basis if the Authority is unable, as a
2

result of such market conditions, to sell the Bonds on a competitive basis on terms that are in the
best financial interests of the Authority; and

transactions and has determined that it approves said transactions in the public interests of the
City and the Authority;
