HONORABLE CITY COUNCIL
Palo Alto, California
Attention: Finance committee
OFFICIAL STATEMENT. INDEh"TURE O~ ~UST, JVlD RESOLUTION ~UTHORIZING
SAL~ -UTILITY BONDS 1'92 SERIES A
Members of the Council:
Report ill Brief
Thi6 purpose of this report is to request Council approval of the
Official Statement, First Supplementa.l Indenture of Trust, and
Resolution Authorizing the Sale of Bonds, for the city of Palo Alto
Utility Revenue Bonds 1992 series A.
In September 1989 (CMR:407:9 and CMR:427:9) the Council approved
the StoriD Drainage Enterprise Fund -cost/Fees, Implementation
Schedule and Public AWareness Program. The fund ~as established
because the storm drainage system was incomplete ar.d inadequately
maintained and the General Fund could not afford the necessary
capital improve:ments and system maintenance. The approved storm
drainage program included a capital improvements element to be
financed p~imarily through revenue bonds and supplemented by the
cash flow produced by the monthly storn drainage utility fee.
In November 1989 council took action to establish the responsibi
lities of the storm and Surface Water Management Enterprise and
Utility (CMR:510:9), and to contract \r{ith Stone & Youngberg for
financial advisory consulting services (CMR::548:9).
CMR: 110: 92
.. ~ .. ..
'----
In early 1991 (CMR:160:91L sta:ff repo~ted t.hat it expected to
pursue approximately $3.0 to $3.5 million in financing and
a:nticipated sellinq the bonds in the spring of 1992 {CKR:209:91).
Past lipaneipg
In o't"der to secure the best int.erest rates for utility revenue
bonds # the City backs each issue with the combined revenue of all
the utilities. currently, there are only two outstanding bond
issues totaling just over $12 million, supported by the utilities
enterprise 'With annual revenue in excess of $100 million.. In
August 1990# the city refunded one of those bond i~sues--the 1985
Series A Utility Revenue. Bonds--by issuing $9.65 million in new
bonds. As a part of that refunding, the ~Enterprise~ 'Was redefined
to include the storm and surface water system. Potential
purchasers will look to see that this ne .. · bond issue is also
supported by the utilities enterprise. Furthermore,. staff has
analyzed the cash flow of the sto~. drainage fund, to assure the
Council that the fund can support the recommended financing.
Cash Ploy
staff has prepared a cash flow for the Storm Drainage Fund for
1990-91 through 1994-95 (AttachIilent A). Capital expenditures
increase significantly in 1991-92 and would result in a deficit
"Without bond financing. During the three years 1991-92 through
1993-94, expenditures for capital improvements total $5.6 million.
The. City's fina.ncial advisors, Stone It: Youngberg, have reviewed
this cash flow and recommend a bond issue of $4.8 million, which
'Would provide $4.6 million for projects and. SO.2 million for
issuance costs.
Bond proceeds will allow the finan~inq of various storm drainage
capital imp~ovements. Those projects are e.ithe~ projects already
approved by Council in the current Capital Improvement Froqrdm
{CIP) or are projects staff -..il1 propose in future CIP's~ (Note.
that existence of bond financing for expected future projects ~ill
not. eliminate the normal capital budgeting review process. All
future projects for "Which bond procep..ds are proposed will be
b~ought before council in the normal five-year ClP approval
process. )
projeots
Approximately $4.6 million of 1992 bond proceeds are expected to be
expended on the projects through fiscal year 1993-94. The Storm
Drainage Fund will be co~ering the difference bet~een bond proceeds
and total project expenditures with cash on a "pay as you go"
basis.

General Fund Paybae~
In September 1989 (CMR: 427: 9), staff recommended, and Council
approved, that the General Fund be paid back over ten years at
approximately $100,000 annually for the "startup· investment that
the General Fund made in the Storm Drainage Fund in the years 1988
and 1989. Council added a stipulation at the time that interest
s:bould not be charged to the Fund for this advance, thus giving the
neW" utility special treatment jn its early years. Staff no ..
recommends that Council change the payback policy and qirect the
Storm Drainage Fund to repay the General Fund the remaining
$797,000 balance of its initial advance, The repayment 'Would be in
two equal installments--one in 1991-92 and one the nex~ j'ear.
The budget for 1990-91 was put together assuming a bond sale durinq
that fiscal year. In February 1991, staff reported (CMR:160:91) in
the midyear financial report that it would be advantageous to delay
the financing package until fiscal year 1991-1992. As reported,
that action required that the General Fund ~dvance an additional
amount to the Storm Drainage Fund to cover the capital improvement
projects that would have been bond financed. These advanced funds
have now been returned to the General Fund.

Chang.' ip Interest R&t.~
This is an extremely qoocl time to sell bonds since interest rates
are so low. As shown on Attachment B, interest rates for the Bond
Buyers Index of 20-year 10.-1 rated general obliqation bends have
gone below 7 percent. Durinq the last eleven years, interest rates
have been that low only for short periods in 1986 and 1987.
linancing of Future Proj~cts
As shown in the cash flow (Attachment 1a.), the proposed bond
financing a~ the existing revenue stream fro~ the monthly storm
dra.inage utility fee are sUfficient to funa anticipated capital
projects and operating .expenses through 15193-94. ~ previously
discussed ~itb, Council when the Storm Drainage Fund was esta~lished
and ~~e initial rate .as set, a rate increase will be necessary in
2 to ) years to support f~ture capital pr-ojects. An a.d.ditional
bond. financi.ng may be appropriate at that time~ too.
Official statament
The Official Statement tAttachment C) will be provided ~o prospec
tive purchasers of the new bond issue. This document describes the
bonds and gives detailed information about the city and the
Utilities oper-ations to prospective purchaser-s of bonds. The
information is offered for the purpose of assessing the City's
ability to pay interest and principal ~hen they are due.
Indenture of Trust
security pacific is the trustee on the 1990 issue. This 1992 bond
issue will have a pledge of revenues on a parity 'With. the 1990
issue. Security .Pacific submitted a re.3sonat'lle bid and it was
decided to retain them for the same work for this parity issue.
Tbe Indenture of Trust (Attachment 0) is the legal document which
provides the apPOintment of Sec~rity Pacific as trustee, outlines
the duties of the trustee, and provides the covenants of the City.
Resolutiop Authorizing Sale
The Resolution authorizing the sale of the bonds (Attachment E)
specifies tha~ bids will be acceptea at the offices of bond counsel ~
Jone.s Hall Hill' White on March 4, 1992 at 11:00 a.m. and the

Operation of the City's eleCtric utility dates from 1900 when the City acqumd the faciliries
of Per.insula Lighting Company. lne City provided electricity from its O\o\'n steam powen~d
@cneratingplantunti11921. In resporue to accelerating load growth, the Ci:)' entered intl1 a
wholesale supyty contact with PG&E in 1923. In 1%4. the City c-xecuted a ~holesa1e,
all.requiremenUi contract with the Western ~a Power Administration ("Western") to purchase
power produced by the Central Valley Proje<:t. 'The contracf with PG&E was termm~Ted, Since
that time, the lower 'COS! power pro"'ided by Western has enabled the City 10 provlde electric
service at rates well be10w those prevailing in adjacenl PG&E service areas.
TIle City t'wos no electric gfmeraling facilities. The en) 's contract for electric po\1,cr with
tJ-.e federel govennnent is administ.ered by Western. Western markets F<-lwer from the Central
Valley Project. a feder.aI multi-usc hydroelectric development in Northern Califomia., and has
traditionally been the least e;r;.pc116ive source of bulk power for the City. It provides power to the
City at a capacity of up to 1 7 5 MW with associate d enc:Ig)'. The contract expires in 2004 and is
subject to adjustments in the prke of power.
The City purch~c;.es supplemenl al power above the capacity of the Western contract through
its membernhip in the Northern California Power Agency ("NCPA") and is a sign.atory of the
NCPA/PG&:E lrtt,=rCQnnection Agreement. The City's Fiscal 1991 peak demand was
approxi.:nately 188.95 MW and annual energy c.onsumptio[l was approximately 1,084,700
MWH. The average rrwnthly load factor during Fiscal 199 i was 65.54 perceJ'lt

Mllnicipal ov.'Ilership of tile gas system began on October 1,1917 when thl: City purcha..<:,ed
ilie Palo Alto Gas Company through a $40,000 bend isslle. On October 7. 192q natural gas was
introduced into t.~ City's mains, as Palo Alto began purchasing gas from Pacific Gas and
Electric Company (PG&E). This natural ga'l, (which PG&E obtained from the lower San
loZ!J.uin oil r~ld.) had a superior quality of 1180 btu per cubic foot. As a consequen<:e. domestic
gas <:onsumption began to rise dramalicalJy L~ the earlY 1930'5 . TIle system and its gas.
com>umption have grown with the developrm:nt of the City. Until J 99 J PG&E had troclditionaily
been the City's source of supply. Under new California Public lh.ilities Ccmro..is5i<m r'J!ings,
Palo Alto has developed a favorable contract for natural gas from Canada.
The City's f:utrent Natural G~ Supply AgreemC'nt wjth Shell Canada i5 dated August 1.
199 J. and has a tenn of one year. 1be City also utilizes PG&E 's gas storage: system to "bank'"
inexpensive gas supplies which can be wifhdrawn during the winter months when gas prices
.rise. There are sev~ra1 issues before the Ciilifomia Public Utilities Commission which will
result in significant rt structu.ring of the gas industry. The net result will be ~reater opponunit)'
and associated responsibility for the Cit)' in bandling its gas supply. The Palo Alto Gas UtUlty
closely monitors and i~tervenes in these proceedings to protect its intert51$ wd ins~ue
development of an optimum portfolio of supplies
TIle City's gas system performs tlIe functiofl5 of pressure regulation, distribution and
metering. 1bc: City does nol foresee adding fO the service area.in the future. PJanned
improvements will control and reduce system leakage and increase the capaciry of <:enain lines
to meet current and projected den:s.i.t)! in certain area.\ of the City.
From 1%6.-&7 through 1990-91 sales revenues decrea.;.ed at a compound annual rare of
.83% because of conservation efforts.
The Ciry's costS to purchase gas have actually increased by 33.2% from 1986-87 to
1990-9 J due to an increase in sales and as a .resuh of an increase in naTural gas prices.
Prior to J 988 the ejty maintamed its rates at a f~ed percentage bc-low the rates charged by
PG&E. In 1988 the City determined that its gas supply reserve was ill excess of the amount
required and refunded in the fonn of credits or rebates approximately $9.3 million. The City's
1990 gas rates are approximately 37% low~r than the rates which PG&E charges 10 residential
customers in neighboring cities.
The five-year projected sales. forecast shows a 3 L7% revenue increase by 1995-96. This
revenue increase reflects a .31O/C compounded annual growth rate in sales (thenns). SaTes:
e5timales are principally affe.:ted by additional days for leap year and w~alher factors. The
la.rgest operating cost accounting for higher revenue reqUl1emenl5 l..S an anticipated ri~e (11 o/d in

In 1985. a RWQCP Cap-acit'"j Expansion program was developed to meet the news of all the
fac:i1ity~s partner agencies through 1995. Tnis: u.pans.ion im:reased l..h.e capacity of \.he plant to
38 mgrl. and Pfimary!:secondaI)' tteaOTIenf for peak wei weather flows to 80 mgd.
Also in 1985, a five-year capital improvement program was begun in the Wastewater
Collection System dedicated to inflowft.ntllttation (lIl) sawee detection and system
rehabilitation.
These ~o msJor wastewater 'project~ were funded by llte issuance of the .$12.2 million Cit)'
of Palo Alto Utility Revenue Bonds, 1985 Series A. This: .... ariabIe rate fmancing was kept in the
weekly InQ\k: :and was refInanced with the S9.65 milllan City of PaIo Alto UUlity Revenue
B.onds, 1990 Series A. The 1990 bond .issue was smaller due [0 the paymenl of principal and the
elimination of the reserve fund through the use o( I. surety bond. Both projects have been
completed.
MY! g '0' Discassion of 0penIti00s
From 1986-87 through 1990--91 sales revenues increased at a compound annual rate of7.2%
which retlects revenues requlred to coover higher costs of operations.
The wastewater residemial rates DC! not follo~ a per unit consumed increase, but an! mostly
flat rates of fees per household. Increased flow rares do nor !lecessa..-ily result in increased
"~les" regardless of their 50U1"«. Hence, the net fi .... e year average .annual growth in flow is not
reflected in the projected revenue picture. Antkipated increases in operation and maintenance
costs result!n significandy higher rev~.f'lue requirements. This estimate.is based on t.he
assumption that present levels of treatment are adequate and no major capital expenditures will
be required by the Bay Basin Plan or other Regional Water Quality Control Board cl.edsions.
The Plant's disc:har~ into San Francisco Bay is authorized by a three year Natiottal
Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) pennit which was issued on December 28,
1988 by the Regional Water Quality Control Boord. The permit was amended May 16. 1990 Ie
include additional pre-treatment and wute minimizatWn requiremertts. lbe permit requiRs
several ongoing studies regarding particular components of the Plant's effluent. All stUdy
deadlinc.oCi have been met and the Ciry is budgeting $9OC'J,OOO per yeat to contirl'.le the re.sench
and implementation of waste mirUmizaticm programs. The perm.i[ was again amended April 17.
1991, seuing "interim c<.mcemration limits fonoxic pollutant,,>." The e.7..tn:.mely low limit of 2.9
ugII foc copper cannot be achieved by conventional means; the !~ad and nickel values ar~ also
questionable as to their achievability. ~ction from the Regional Water Quality Control Board
is thai through sourr;(: <:ontrol and wa~er reclamation projects, to~ potlutant reductlon5 will be
required.
The water conservation measures adopted in response to drought conditions ~suI1 in a
reduction of wastewarer Charges for major cllst(lmers. Consequently, the City has significantI)·
increased the per unit rate for wastewater collection to meet revenue requirements.
The UriIities Depa."1ment 1991·95 Capita] Improvement Program Re'por1lisl~ a number Qf

1liE STORM DRAINAGe UI1LITY
~ City of P:l!o Alto crea~ed by Ordinance a Stonn and Surface \Vater Management
Ente.rprise on November 6, 19a9. On November 27.1989 the Council approved a method for
calculating Stonn Drainage fee~ and estii!hlished a Utility Rate Schedule for the Enterprise to be
effectiv~ Janua.-y 1,1990. Storm Drai'lage fees were collected for the ftrst time with the City's
February utility bill.
The purpose of the Storm and Surface Water Management Enterprise i~ to construct and
maintain storm drainage improvemems on a City-wide basi .. , The Cit)' is responsible for all
drainage facilities in the street and the public right of way including curbs and gutters, catch
bssms, pipelines and pump stations. TItese facilities colleCt storm water and convey it to the
Santa Clara Valiey Water District's system of major channels and creeks within the City. The
City has detemtined that muc. ..... of its collection system is incomplete, undersized. or in need of
repair/rep! aoemcnt. After considering a number of alternative funding solutions to corre-<:t these
problems. the City concluded that the most appropriate :rm:lhod was the levying of a monthly
Storm Drainage Fee computed on the basis of the use madt of, and the need for, and the .service
p~vided by the stonn drainage facilities of the City. Fees fpr single.fa."l1ily and duplex
n:sidcntia1 propenies are a fixed amount and arc ba.o;ed on the asswnption that t.~se types 0 f
property have an average impervious area of 2,500 sqllare feel. Fees for multi-family
residential, commercial, and industrial propenies ale proponional to the single-family
residential rate, but are based on:he ih..'tUaI amount nf impervious area on the propeny. Revenue
from the Stonn Drainage Fee for fiscal year 1990-91 was $1,660,000.
Capital Improvement b:2irAJD Summary
The Pubhc Works Department 1991 -96 Capital Improvement Program Report i~miftes
various stonn drainage system improvement projects totalling S935,000 for flS.:'.:ii yea: 199I~92,
Budget flgu.r.!S forme remaining years are yet to be fmaIized, subject to the results of the
ongoing Stonn Drainage Condition A .. sessment and Master Plan studies. The~ 'h\-'O !::rudies will
identify portions of the City'S existing storm drainage s),stem that need to be replaced or
rehabili[ated, and areas of the City where the capaciry of the system needs to ~ im:.re:ased.
Staff has identified $5,6 million in proposed capital expenditure-s for the stann drainage
system for fISCal years 1991-92 through 1993-94, some ofwh.ich will be funded on a "pay as you
go" basis. The projeCts to be funded a..'"'e locate-d throughoLlt the CIty and include the Condition
Assessment and Master Plan s~dies, stonn drain construction, pump station improvements, curb
and gutter replacement, fuading for the Santa Clara Valley Nonpoint Source Pollution Control
Program, and ,slonnwater quality improvements. These proposed impro\'I:'.rnents are described in
detail in an earlier3ection of this document. The City int~nds ro use the 1992 Bonds as a mea."1S
of fmancing these improvements. The CilY imends that its Stann Drainage impro .... ements will
be undertaken as Storm Drainage Fee revenues are sufficient to pay maintenance and operating
expenses of the Utility and provide an increment of additional revenue to cover debt service
payments resulting from the improvements,

When tl:te Storm and Surface Water .Management Enterprise was created in 1989, the CiT),
sta:ed that the stann drainage fe-'(: would not be increased for a period of three years. fherc~fore,
January 1993 is the earliest date al which a rate .increase could be implemented. This date
coincides with the projected completion of tbe Stonn Drainage Condition Assessment and
Master Plan studies. These siUdies will aSSt51 staff in de:errnining the extent of capital
improvC'lTh!nts rc:qllired to repair aging parts of the existing stann drainage system and to add on
to tfH: system where it does not ha"c sufficient capacity to serve its drainage area. The Fee
increase to be recommended to Council will be proportlonaJ to the amounf of capital
improvements identified in these studies A fee mCf(:ase may also be ne~ded to pay for an
