A RESOLUTION OF THE OLD TOWN/WESTS]IDE COMMUNITY
FACILITIES DISTRICT FINANCING AUTHORITY APPROVING A
CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT AND SUPERVISION AGREEM[ENT
WITH FLUOR DANIEL, INC. AND A GUARANTEE WITH FLUOR
CORPORATION
THE BOARD DIRECTORS OF THE OLD TOWN/WESTSIDE
COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT FINANCING AUTHORITY DOES HEREBY
RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The Board Directors of the Old Town/Westside Community
Facilities District Financing Authority ("Authority") does hereby find, determine and declare
as follows:
a. The Authority has authorized the issuance of the Old Town/Westside
Community Facilities District Financing Authority Community Facilities District No. 1
(Old Town Area Public Improvements) 1996 Special Tax Bonds" to fund the
construction of certain public improvements in the Old Town Area ("Public
Improvements").
b. Anticipating the need for a construction manager to supervise and
manage the construction of the Old Town Area Public Improvements, and prior to the
formation of the Authority, the City of Temecula and the Redevelopment Agency of
the City of Temecula circulated requests for proposals for construction management
services for this project to four of the largest construction management firms in
Southern California, in accordance with the authority of Government Code Sections
4526 and 4528.
C. Proposals were received from Centex Golden Construction Company,
Fluor Daniel, Inc., Kajima International, Inc., and Snyder Langston.
d. The proposals were evaluated on the basis of demonstrated competence
and on the professional qualifications necessary for the satisfactory performance of the
construction management services required for the Public Improvements in accordance
with the authority of Government Code Section 4526.
e. On April 25, 1996, the Board authorized the City Manager/Executive
Director to initiate negotiations with Fluor Daniel, Inc. for construction management
services for the Old Town Area Public Improvements as specifically authorized by
Resos.FA\96-13
Government Code Section 4528, determining that Fluor Daniel, Inc., was the best
qualified firm to perform construction management services for the Public
Improvements.
f. In accordance with the provisions of Government Code Section 4528,
the City Manager/Executive Director has negotiated the terms of the Construction
Management and Supervision Agreement ("CMSA") on behalf of the Authority.
9. In accordance with the provisions of Government Code Sections 4526
and 4528, the Board finds that Fluor Daniel, Inc., is the best qualified firm to perform
construction management services for the Old Town Area Public Improvements.
h. All contracts for construction of the Public Improvements will contain a
clause requiring the contractor to pay prevailing wages in accordance with Labor Code
Sections 1700, et seq.
i. The CMSA requires public bidding of all components of the project for
which competitive bids are required by California law, in accordance with the specific
bidding procedures set forth in Exhibit A to the CMSA. The bidding procedures set
forth in Exhibit A are in general compliance with the applicable provisions of the
Public Contracts Code for cities. The Board finds that to the extent competitive
bidding in accordance with the Public Contracts Code is required for the Public
Improvements, strict compliance with the applicable provisions of the Public Contracts
Code would be unavailing and would not produce an advantage, and the advertisement
for competitive bids would thus be undesirable, impractical, and impossible. The land
use approvals for the Old Town Entertainment Project require completion of the Public
Improvements prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupance for the Project. The
Public Improvements will in many areas be constructed adjacent to the Project and will
affect access to the Project during construction, thus requiring a close coordination
between the contractors working on the Project and the Public Improvements. The
procedures set forth in Exhibit A of the CMSA do in fact provide for public bidding as
the construction manager is required to obtain six to eight competitive bids for each
matter to be bid and the bid shall be awarded on the basis of the highest quality and
lowest price for the Authority.
Section 2.The Board of Directors of the Old Town/Westside Community Facilities
District Financing Authority hereby approves those certain agreements relating to the
management of the construction of the Public Improvement entitled (1) "Construction
Management and Supervision Agreement Between the Old Town/Westside Community
Facilities District Financing Authority and Fluor Daniel, Inc., a California corporation," (2)
the "Supplemental Letter Agreement" between the Old Town/Westside Community Facilities
District Financing Authority and Fluor Daniel, Inc., a California corporation, and (3) the
"Guarantee" between the Old Town/Westside Community Facilities District Financing
Resos.FA\96-13 2
Authority and Fluor Corporation, a Delaware corporation, all in substantially the forms
attached hereto as Exhibits A, B, and C, and directs and authorizes the Chairperson to execute
said agreements on behalf of the Authority, subject to such changes in form as may be
approved by the Executive Director and the General Counsel.
Section 3. The Secretary shall certify the adoption of this Resolution.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED by the Board of Directors of the Old
Town/Westside Community Facilities District Fin4 i" Authority on November 26, 1996.

OPH~'ION:

Old Town/Westside Improvement Authority
1996 Local Agency Reverme Bonds (Old Town Area)
Membe~ of the Board of Directors:
We have acted as bond counsel in connection with the issuance by the Old
Town/Westside Improvement Authority (the "Authority") of its 1996 Local Agcncy Revenue
Bonds (the 'Bonds") pursuant to the Marks-Roos Local Bond Pooling Act of 1985, as amended,
and Resolution No. adopted by the Board of Directors of the Authority on
· 1996 (ti~ 'Resolution"), an Indenture, dated as of ,1996
(the'Indenture'), by a~l between the Authority and First Trust of California, National
Association, u Trustee. We have examined the law and such certified proceedings and other
documents as we deem necessary to render this opinion.
As to questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied upon
representations of the Authority contained in the Resolution and in the certified proceedings and
certifications of public officials and others furnished to us, without unc!~ to verify the
same by independent investigation.
Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion, under existin~ hw, as follows:
1. The Authority and the CFD Financing Authority are duly created and
validly exiz~ u joint exercise of powers authorities, with the power to adopt the Authority
Resolutions and the CFD Resolutions, enter into tl~ Indenture and Fiscal Agent Agreement and
perform the agreements on its part contained therein and issue the Bonds.
2. The Indenture has been duly entered into by the Authority and constitutes
a valid and birding obligation of the Authority enforceable upon the Authority.
Exhibit C
Page 1
[11/19/96 DRAFT]
3. The Fiscal Agent Agreement has been duly entered into by the CFD
Financing Authority and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of tbe CFD Financing
Authority, enforceable upon the CFD Financin~ Authority.
4. Pumumt to the Act, the Indenture cre~te~ a valid Hen on the fund~ pledged
by the Indenture for the security of the
5. Tbe Final Agent Agreen~nt create~ a valid lien on the funds pledged by
the Fiscal Agent Agreement for the security of the Local Agency Bonds.
6. Tbe Bond~ and the Local Agency Bonds hnv¢ been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by the Authority nnd the CFD Financing Authority, t~pectively, and are
valid and binding limited obligation~ of the Authority, payable ~olely from the sourtea provided
therefor in the Indenture nnd the Fisc~ Agent A~eement, respectively.
5. The interest on tbe Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income
tax purpo.w.s and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimm~
tax imposed on indivi~_-_!_. and corporations; it should be not~d, however, that for th~ purpose
of computing the alternative minimum tax in~o~ on corporatiom (a~ defined for federal
income tax ~), such interest is taken into account in dctefminin_o colrain ilic. om¢ ILtKI
earnings. Ti~ opinions set forth in tbe preceding sentence are subject to the condition that the
Authority comply with all requirements of the Internal Revetme Code of 1986 that must be
satisfied subsequent to the issunree of the Bonds in order that ~ interest thee. on be, or
continue to be, excluded from gross income for federal income tax purpose. The Authority has
covenanted to comply with each such requirement. Failure to comply with certain of ~uch
re. qui~ments may cause the inclusion of interest on the Bond~ in grou income for federal
income tax purpo~$ to be retroactive to the date of is~ance of the Bonds. We express no
opinion regarding other federal tax consequences arising with respect to the Bonds.
6. The interest on the Bonds is exempt from personal income taxation imposed
by the State of California.
The rights of the owners of the Bonds and the enforceability of the Bonds, the
Resolution and the Indenture may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reor~nni-n~ion,
moratorium and other s'unilar laws affecting creditors' rights heretofore or hereafter enacted and
also may be subject to the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases.
