Local Funding Approaches
Local projects have traditionally been funded through the 1913 Act Assessment Districts and occasionally by Mello -Roos CFDs.
There are two basic approaches to forming Undergrounding Utility Assessment Districts. One is to form the Assessment District and then prepare the plans
and specifications and then get construction bids; the other is to prepare complete plans and specifications and have construction bids in hand before
forming the Assessment District.
Included on the following slides are details on the different options available.
Federal & State Grants
There may be grants available, which are presented later in this presentation.

Funding Options
Option One — Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 (Assessment District)
1. The process is initiated by an interested property owner, who acts as a liaison between the City, utility companies, and neighbors
2. Based on the interest letter, the City Consultant prepares a boundary map and submits it to the appropriate utility companies who review the map to
ensure that the boundaries are logical and feasible
3. The City Consultant then prepares a petition to be circulated by proponents to all affected property owners within the proposed district boundaries
4. Once the petition is certified by the Assessment Engineer, the City Engineer and the City Consultant will prepare a staff report requesting City Council
approval to move forward. With Council approval, the Assessment Engineer will prepare an Engineer's Report
5. The Engineer's Report and Resolution of Intention are submitted to the City Council for approval and a public hearing is scheduled
6. The Ballots are prepared with the assessment amount and sent to each property owner within the proposed district boundaries
7. All votes must be submitted to the City prior to the end of the scheduled public hearing. The district passes if the district received greater than 50%
approval and is subsequently approved by the City Council. Following approval by the property owners, the detailed design process begins. It usually
involves the following steps: Base mapping, IID electrical design, and telephone and cable design
8. Once the project is fully designed, it will be bid with a contract awarded, and then constructed
Funding Options
Option One — Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 (Assessment District)
Design: After District Formation (Fast-track)
Pros
• Once the petition is approved, the City can immediately order the Engineer's Report, go to ballot and form the Assessment District
• Up front costs are significantly less and the time period to form the District is reduced to about 3-4 months. The agency can pay the up front costs or
request that the proponents pay the up front costs by depositing funds with the agency
• It is known whether you have an Assessment District before preparing plans and specifications and obtaining bids
Cons
• Disadvantage is the bids could come in higher than the estimated cost in the Engineer's Report causing a shortfall in assessment funds. This can be counter
balanced by placing a larger contingency in the Cost Estimate
Funding Options
Option Two
1. Steps 1-3 are the same as option 1
2. Once the petition is certified by the Assessment Engineer, the City Engineer and the City Consultant will prepare a staff report requesting City Council
approval to begin the design process
3. The design process begins once the utility companies receive the design fee, which is the responsibility of the property owners. The process usually
involves the following steps: Base mapping, IID electrical design, and telephone and cable design
4. Once the design is complete and accepted by the City and utility companies, the utility companies provide a "guaranteed cost of construction."
5. The completed design plans, Engineer's Report, and Resolution of Intention are submitted to the City Council for approval and a public hearing is
scheduled
6. Ballots are prepared with the assessment amount and sent to each property owner within the proposed district's boundaries
7. All votes must be submitted to the City prior to the end of the scheduled public hearing. The district passes if the district received greater than 50%
approval and is subsequently approved by City Council
Funding Options
Option Two
Design: Before District Formation
Pros
• Advantage is costs are known before balloting and forming the District
Cons
• Plans, specifications (PS&E) and bidding process must be paid for up front before forming the District
• After paying the up front costs, the District could fail to be formed. The agency could lose the funds for the PS&E unless the proponents of the District pay
up front the costs, rather than the agency, by placing a fund deposit with the agency
• It can take two years to have the plans and specifications prepared and construction bids received and support for the District could change during this
period
Funding Options
Paying the Assessment & Final Steps
Regardless of which of the two options is selected, property owners will have two options to pay for the assessment:
1. 30 -Day Cash Payment Period: Within 30 days after the close of the public hearing, the property owner has the option to pay the full or a portion of the
assessment amount. The property owner will save approximately 8% on the portion of the assessment paid in cash. This 8% savings results from not
selling bonds for the amount owed. Bonds will be sold for any unpaid portion of the assessment and a lien will be placed on the property until the bond is
paid in full.
2. Bond: If the property owner elects to not pay during the 30 -Day Cash Payment Period, bonds will be sold. Assessments will be placed on the property tax
bill to be paid over a 20 to 25 -year financing period. During that time, a lien will be placed on the property until the bond amount is paid in full. Bonds will
incur a finance charge.
Once construction of the main line underground infrastructure has been completed, property owners will be responsible for hiring a licensed electrician to
connect the property's existing overhead connection to the underground infrastructure — this cost is not covered in the assessment amount and will need to
be completed within the designated time frame by the property owners.

* The cost estimate is based on IID maps and the count of services requiring conversion, which may differ from a simple parcel count. Occasionally, a single parcel may contain multiple homes or
services, and conversely, a home or service may span multiple parcels. The most accurate option is to conduct an engineer's field study to obtain a true count of homes
** Includes 15% incidental costs (assessment engineer, CM and Inspection, city time, & bond counsel)
*** It is estimated that private conversion costs will be in the $8,000-12,000 range per parcel. Property owners will be responsible for this amount, which is in addition to their assessment

Mello -Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982
In 1982, the Mello -Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (Government Code §53311-53368.3) was created to provide an alternate method of financing for
needed improvements and services.
• The Act allows any county, city, special district, school district or joint powers authority to establish a Mello -Roos Community Facilities District (a "CFD")
which allows for financing of public improvements and services. The services and improvements that Mello -Roos CFDs can finance include streets, sewer
systems and other basic infrastructure, police protection, fire protection, ambulance services, schools, parks, libraries, museums and other cultural
facilities.
• A CFD is created to finance public improvements and services when no other source of money is available.
• A CFD is created by a sponsoring local government agency. The proposed district will include all properties that will benefit from the improvements to be
constructed or the services to be provided. A CFD cannot be formed without a two-thirds majority vote of residents living within the proposed boundaries.
Or, if there are fewer than 12 residents, the vote is instead conducted of current landowners. In many cases, that may be a single owner or developer.
• Once approved, a Special Tax Lien is placed against each property in the CFD. Property owners then pay a Special Tax each year. If the project cost is high,
municipal bonds will be sold by the CFD to provide the large amount of money initially needed to build the improvements or fund the services.
Analysis of Equivalent Primary Overhead Distribution: Count and Cost Evaluation
Equivalent Overhead Distribution System: A theoretical feeder and distribution extension designed as if the applicant were going to be
served overhead by a new system. The line will follow the basic route of the existing overhead system.
This evaluation involves estimating the costs associated with establishing a new equivalent overhead distribution system used for delivering
electricity to the existing residents in the 6 study areas. It encompasses the costs linked to the new primary infrastructure elements, such as
poles, arms, insulators, pins, anchors, stud poles, cable poles, guying and the associated labor, equipment and permitting related.
The equivalent overhead distribution and feeder extension must originate from the same existing source. The equivalent study should follow the
basic route of the existing overhead system but must also be based on sound engineering practices for overhead construction utilizing proper
pole spacing, grade of pole construction, and loading engineering.
The intent of this opinion of probable cost is to explore a credit option so Imperial Irrigation District can considerer an equivalent overhead
credit for the length of the proposed conversions in the 6 different impacted areas in the City.

Federal Funding/Grants
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, has
been labeled as a once -in -a -generation investment in infrastructure to support the nation's growth. While
nearly 400 funding opportunities exist within IIJA, many of them were focused on either finding the most
cost-effective route, directed at clean energy, designed for the state of California to be the applicant, or
were focused on rural populations, However, several opportunities presented themselves for the City
which may qualify and are presented as follows:
• GRIP (Grid Resilience & Partnership): Department of Energy (DOE) program that supports activities
that will modernize the electric grid to reduce impacts due to extreme weather and natural disasters.
This program will fund comprehensive transformational transmission and distribution technology
solutions that will mitigate multiple hazards across a region or within a community, including wildfires,
floods, hurricanes, extreme heat, extreme cold, storms, and any other event that can cause a
disruption to the power system. This program provides grants to electric grid operators, electricity
storage operators, electricity generators, transmission owners or operators, distribution providers, and
fuel suppliers. This program will provide up to $2.5B over 5 years.

• CWDG (Community Wildfire Defense Grant): With the adoption of a community wildfire protection plan (CWPP), the City could benefit from this
program which is designed to help implement projects within the CWPP that are less than 10 years old related to becoming a fire -adapted community.
The due date for this grant is on 11/03/2024 and a cash/in-king match is required. The actual funds from the US Department of Agriculture are
unspecified.
• RCPGP (Regional Catastrophic Preparedness Grant Program) FEMA Region 9: This grant covers severe damage or disruption to the infrastructure
related to a catastrophic incident impacting the area, focusing on projects that are focused on equity and climate resilience. This grant can be used to
build on existing regional preparedness efforts for local governments. Although the original due date of 7/24/2023 has passed, there are multiple due
dates for these funds from the US Department of Homeland Security. No match is required for the $12M funds available, with individual projects
grants covering up to $3M.
• BRIC (Building Resilient Infrastructure & Communities) Direct Technical Assistance Grant: If the City of La Quinta is able to demonstrate that they
have pockets within the community with a social vulnerability index (SVI) score greater than or equal to 0.6, this grant can be applied for. There is no
known due date for the next round of funding, but a match is not required for this program funded through the US Department of Homeland Security.
This grant is to be used as an additional research resource as the purposed of this program is to provide non-financial direct technical assistance to
applicants.

State Funding/Grants
• CPUC (California Public Utilities Commission) establishes funding mechanisms for undergrounding and upgrading the power grid through a variety of
programs under Rules and Tariffs paid by users and the utility through work credits that accumulate annually in the municipality's account. The work
credits are established by formula based on the equivalent overhead infrastructure improvement that would have been required if not for the construction
of the underground facility. The challenge for agencies served by non -investor funded utilities, such as IID, is that the utility is not obligated to participate
in these programs nor set aside work credits to fund future undergrounding as would be required for investor funded utilities, such as SCE. This is to the
benefit to the rate payers in the short term but does not provide a funding source for future undergrounding our upgrades to the power grid. However, the
CPUC does have requirements for undergrounding of secondary utilities, such as telecommunication lines, at the utility's expense along designated scenic
highways and in areas where there is a public interest finding that justifies placing the lines underground. This would require these secondary services to
participate, at their own cost, in any City sponsored undergrounding project to move the lines into the public right-of-way; however, the cost to reconnect
service to individual properties may be borne by the property owner.
• CERI (Community Resilience Investment) Program: This program will fund projects across California that increase community energy resilience and
reliability, promote decarbonization of the electric system, improve energy justice and equity, and create good -paying jobs. Approximately $170 million in
formula funds over the next five years will be distributed under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), section 40101(d) — Preventing Outages
and Enhancing the Resilience of the Electric Grid.
