A. General Overview
This consolidated service plan ("Service Plan") for Erie Corporate Center Metropolitan
District No. 1, 2 and 3 (hereinafter collectively known as "Districts") constitutes a combined
service plan for three Title 32 special districts proposed for organization to serve the needs of a new
community to be known as "Erie Corporate Center" in the Town of Erie ("Erie"), which is being
developed by Community Development Group (the "Developer"). Erie Corporate Center is
generally located in Erie between W.C.R. 10 on the south, W.C.R. 12 on the north, W.C.R. 7 on the
west and Interstate 25 on the east. It consists of approximately 602 acres, and will be divided into
development areas consisting of residential and commercial development, open space and parks.
Exhibit A contains a general "Development Plan" for the community. Exhibit C contains
development projections.
Considerable public infrastructure will be constructed to provide the required water,
wastewater, streets, traffic safety control, park and recreation facilities, drainage improvements and
other improvements generally described herein. This Service Plan addresses the improvements that
will be financed, constructed, installed and otherwise provided by the Districts, and demonstrates
how the Districts will work together to provide the necessary public improvements.
1. Multiple District Structure. This Service Plan is submitted in accordance
with Part 2 of the Special District Act (§32-1-201, et seq., C.R.S.). It defines the powers and
authorities of, as well as the limitations and restrictions, on the Districts. This Service Plan further
sets forth the general parameters for the working relationship between Erie Corporate Center
Metropolitan District No. 1, Erie Corporate Center Metropolitan District No. 2 and Erie Corporate
Center Metropolitan District No. 3. Erie Corporate Center Metropolitan District No. 1 shall be
referred to as "District No. 1" or the "Service District," and Erie Corporate Center Metropolitan
District Nos. 2 and 3 shall be referred to as"District No. 2" and"District No. 3", respectively or the
"Financing Districts." The Service District and the Financing Districts are sometimes collectively
referred to as "the Districts."
The Service District is responsible for managing the construction and operation of facilities
and improvements needed for Erie Corporate Center. The Financing Districts are responsible for
providing the funding and tax base needed to support the Financing Plan for capital improvements
and for operations. The Financing Plan discussed throughout this Service Plan refers to a
consolidated financial plan for the Districts, which sets forth the manner in which public
improvements for Erie Corporate Center are anticipated to be financed.
Due to the interrelationship between the Districts, various agreements are expected to be
executed by the Districts clarifying the respective responsibilities and the nature of the functions
and services to be provided by each District. The agreements will be designed to help assure the
orderly development of essential services and facilities resulting in a community that is aesthetic
and an economic asset to Erie.
1
The establishment of Erie Corporate Center Metropolitan District No. 1 as the Service
District, which will initially own and operate the public facilities throughout Erie Corporate Center,
and the establishment of Erie Corporate Center Metropolitan District No. 2 as the residential district
and District No. 3 as the commercial district (collectively the "Financing Districts"), will generate
the tax revenue to pay the costs of the capital improvements, administration and operations and
maintenance, as well as create benefits for the inhabitants of the community. In general, those
benefits are: (a) coordinated administration of construction and operation of public improvements,
and delivery of those improvements in a timely manner; and (b) assurance that improvements
required by Erie are constructed in a timely and cost effective manner.
2. Benefits of Multiple District Structure.
a. Coordinated Services. As presently planned, development of Erie Corporate
Center will proceed in phases, which will require the extension of public services and facilities.
The multiple district structure will assure that the construction and operation of each phase of
public facilities will be administered consistent with a long-term construction and operations
program. Use of the Service District as the entity responsible for construction of improvements and
for management of operation and maintenance needs will facilitate a well planned financing effort
through all phases of construction, which will assist in the coordinated extension of services.
b. Debt Allocation. Allocation of the responsibility for paying debt for capital
improvements will be managed through development of a unified financing plan for such
improvements and through development of an integrated operating plan for long-term operations
and maintenance for those improvements retained by the Districts. Use of the Service District to
manage these functions will help assure that no area within Erie Corporate Center becomes obligated
for more than its share of the costs of capital improvements and operations. Neither high nor low-
density areas will bear a disproportionate burden of debt and operating costs.
c. Bond Interest Rates. The use of the Service District and/or the Financing
Districts to issue bonds to provide for the cost of infrastructure in Erie Corporate Center will allow
for the issuance of bonds at competitive interest rates. The use of a multiple district structure
allows the Service District to coordinate with the Financing Districts the timing and issuance of
bonds in such a way as to assure that improvements required by Erie are constructed in
conformance with the time requirements, and in the manner, desired by Erie and the Districts. The
combination of appropriate management and control of the timing of financing and the ability of
the Districts to obtain attractive interest rates will benefit residents.
3. Configuration of Districts. In order to implement the multiple district
structure, the boundaries of the Service District and the Financing Districts need to be carefully
configured. A map showing the boundaries of the Districts are provided in Exhibit B. The Service
District will contain approximately 3.983 acres, and the residential Financing District ("District
No.2") and the commercial Financing District ("District No. 3") will initially contain
approximately 186.00 and 411.374 acres, respectively. The combined acreage and boundaries of
2
the Financing Districts and the Service District cover all acreage currently within Erie Corporate
Center. Legal descriptions of the property within the boundaries of the Districts are attached to this
Service Plan in Exhibit E.
The "service area" (the area legally permitted to be served) for the Service District will
consist of the entire area of the Erie Corporate Center community, including the property within the
Financing Districts' boundaries. The service area for each Financing District will be each
Financing District's legal boundaries. The Service District will have power to impose taxes only
within its legal boundaries, but will be permitted to impose fees and charges in its service area as
well as to property or individuals outside of Erie Corporate Center based upon services provided to
such property. It is currently anticipated that no residential units will be located within the Service
District. District No. 2 is expected to contain all of the residential development, and District No. 3
is expected to contain only commercial development.
It is possible that additional property may be included in the Financing Districts. Under
Colorado law, the fee owner or owners of one hundred percent of any property proposed for
inclusion may petition the boards of directors of the Financing Districts for inclusion of real
property. The Districts shall have authority to consider such inclusions, subject to Erie's approval.
Notwithstanding the aforesaid, the Districts shall be permitted to consider boundary adjustments of
property located within the boundaries of either the Financing Districts or Service District without
the prior approval of Erie so long as all of the property described in Exhibit B remains located in
the Districts. No property shall be excluded from any District without Erie's approval, unless it is
included into one of the other Districts. Notice of all inclusions or exclusions shall be provided to
Erie pursuant to the annual reporting requirements set forth in Section VII,herein.
4. Long-Term District Plan. After all bonds or other debt instruments have
been issued by the Districts and adequate provision has been made for payment of all debt and for
operation and maintenance of the facilities not conveyed to Erie, the electorate of the Service
District and Financing Districts, respectively, will have the opportunity to consider either the
consolidation of the Service District and the Financing Districts into a single entity, or the
dissolution of the Service District. The Service District will consider consolidation and/or
dissolution at the time at which both the Service District and the Financing Districts' debt has been
paid or adequate provision has been made for the payment thereof, and when adequate provision
has been made for operation of all of the public facilities that have not been conveyed to Erie.
Ultimately, control of these decisions will rest with the electorate in each District.
5. Existing Services and Districts. Erie will provide the usual municipal
services such as water and sanitation service in conjunction with development of such
improvements, and may supply such services to Erie Corporate Center directly or through
arrangements with other municipal or quasi-municipal entities. Erie will also provide law
enforcement services. The Mountain View Fire Protection District will provide fire protection.
Other than Erie, there are currently no other entities in existence in the Erie Corporate Center area
that have the ability or the expressed desire to undertake the design, financing and construction of
the improvements designated herein which are needed for the community.
3
In order to minimize the proliferation of new governmental structures and personnel, the
Service District intends to utilize existing entities as much as possible for operations and
maintenance of public improvements. Although relatively few are expected, the Districts may
retain operational and maintenance responsibilities for certain improvements such as community
park and recreation facilities (including pocket parks, a recreation center, pool and landscaped
common areas), which are not otherwise dedicated to and accepted by Erie. As a general matter,
operations and maintenance of water, wastewater, storm drainage, street and traffic safety and
associated landscaping, and park and recreation improvements will be the responsibility of Erie
after such completed improvements are conveyed to Erie,by or on behalf of, and at the direction of
the Service District. The timing for conveyance of improvements to Erie will be developed by
mutual agreement between the Service District and Erie as generally described above and in
Section V hereof pursuant to an Intergovernmental Agreement between Erie and the Districts (the
"Town IGA").
To further avoid duplication of services and proliferation of governmental entities, it is
possible that, for those improvements not conveyed to and accepted by Erie, the necessary
operations and maintenance services may be provided by other entities, such as a property owners'
association or a swimming pool or recreational facility operator through appropriate agreements
with the Service District. Consequently, while the Service District and the Financing Districts will
exist to finance capital improvements and coordinate the provision of services, they are expected to
utilize existing entities as much as possible and may ultimately contract for or transfer
responsibility for such operations and maintenance to a property owners association.
6. Property Owner Associations. Certain services will be provided within Erie
Corporate Center by one or more property owner associations expected to be organized as Colorado
non-profit, private membership organizations comprised of all property owners in Erie Corporate
Center. The associations are expected to provide architectural control services, community
organizations, community events and activities, community marketing, security, and other
programs that may be beyond the scope of the Districts.
All improvements, except for the community pool and associated landscaping, shall be
transferred to Erie subject to Erie's acceptance thereof and provision of applicable warranties.
Therefore, the Districts do not anticipate owning, operating and maintaining any of the public
improvements other than certain and limited park and recreation improvements. It is anticipated
that once the debt associated with such improvements not conveyed to Erie has been repaid, title to
such improvements may be transferred to the property owners' association.
B. General Financial Information and Assumptions
The projected assessed valuations are shown in the Financing Plan attached hereto as
Exhibit F. The anticipated cost of the public improvements necessary to provide access and
appropriate services within Erie Corporate Center are substantial and are estimated in Exhibit D.
The Districts anticipate obtaining financing for the capital improvements initially from Developer
4
advances, and then through the issuance of revenue bonds or other debt instruments by the Service
District and/or through the issuance of limited tax general obligation bonds or other debt
instruments by the Financing Districts. General obligation debt will be payable from revenues
derived from ad valorem property taxes and from other available sources. The Financing District(s)
anticipate the issuance, if any, of limited tax general obligation bonds after determination that the
assessed valuation is sufficient to pay debt service within the limited mill levies allowed by this
Service Plan. It is currently anticipated that credit enhancement and security, if any, for debt issued
will be provided by the Developer. The financial forecasts for the Districts are contained in Exhibit
F to this Service Plan. The Financing Plan demonstrates one method that might be used by the
Districts to finance the cost of infrastructure as well as operation and administrative costs. At the
time bonds or other debt instruments are proposed to be issued, alternative financing plans may be
employed and utilized by the Districts without further approval from Erie so long as the alternative
plans are consistent with the limitations set forth herein and do not constitute a material
modification.
Due to probable credit enhancement and other support expected from the Developer or
other private sources, the Financing Plan demonstrates that the cost of public improvements and
operation and administrative costs can be provided with reasonable mill levies. The estimated costs
will not constitute legal limits on the financial powers of the Districts; however, the Districts shall
not be permitted to issue bonds that are not in compliance with the bond registration and issuance
requirements of Colorado law.
The financial structure contemplated in the Financing Plan demonstrates that the risks
associated with development of Erie Corporate Center will be borne initially by the Developer of
the project. Due to the nature of liabilities associated with issuance of revenue bonds and developer
owned debt, the entire risk of development will rest with the Developer until such time as the
Financing Districts develop sufficient assessed valuation to support the debt service requirements of
the bonds issued. At such time, any security provided by the Developer to support such bonds shall
be incrementally reduced. In this manner, Erie is assured that the risks of development and the
responsibility for repayment of debt issued for Erie Corporate Center will be borne solely by the
residents and property owners of Erie Corporate Center, and will never become the responsibility,
in any degree, of Erie.
Additionally, Erie can be assured that there are legal and financial controls on special
district indebtedness, which operate to limit indebtedness that residents can expect to pay.
Generally, under current state law provisions, a special district cannot sell valid indebtedness
payable from property tax revenues in excess of fifty percent (50%) of its valuation for assessment
unless a statutory exception applies. Excepted from this limitation is indebtedness which is rated or
insured, issued in minimum denominations of five hundred thousand dollars, issued to financial
institutions or institutional investors, payable from a limited debt service mill levy not to exceed 50
mills, or unless such indebtedness is secured as to the payment of principal and interest by a letter
of credit, line of credit or other credit enhancements. In addition, state securities laws do not
provide exemption from registration for special district indebtedness not meeting such minimum
requirements.

C. Contents of Service Plan
This Service Plan consists of a financial analysis and preliminary engineering plan showing
how the facilities and services for Erie Corporate Center can be provided and financed by the
Districts working on a coordinated basis. Numerous items are included in this Service Plan in order
to satisfy the requirements of law for formation of special districts.
The assumptions contained within this Service Plan were derived from a variety of sources.
Information regarding the present status of property within the Districts, as well as the current
status and projected future level of similar services, was obtained from the Developer. The
Developer assembled the construction cost estimates, and has experience in the costing and
construction of similar facilities. The attorneys of White and Associates Professional Corporation,
which represent numerous special districts, provided legal advice in the preparation of this Service
Plan. The Developer provided financial recommendations and advice in the preparation of the
Service Plan.
D. Modification of Service Plan
This Service Plan has been designed with sufficient flexibility to enable the Financing
Districts to provide required services and facilities for Erie Corporate Center under evolving
circumstances without the need for numerous amendments. While the assumptions upon which
this Service Plan are generally based are reflective of current zoning for the property within Erie
Corporate Center, the cost estimates and Financing Plan are sufficiently flexible to enable the
Districts to provide necessary services and facilities without the need to amend this Service Plan in
the event zoning changes. Modification of the general types of services and facilities, and changes
in proposed configurations, locations, or dimensions of various facilities and improvements shall be
permitted to accommodate development needs consistent with the then current zoning for the
property.
Pursuant to the Town IGA, the Districts shall be responsible for all reasonable costs of
Erie's review for a material modification initiated by the Districts, conditioned upon Erie
providing the Districts with a not-to-exceed estimate prior to each review.
II. NEED FOR NEW DISTRICTS AND GENERAL POWERS
A. Need for Metropolitan Districts
Operations and maintenance of wastewater, storm drainage, street and traffic safety and
associated landscaping, and park and recreation improvements will initially be provided by the
Districts during the construction phases, with said operations to be assumed by Erie upon its final
acceptance of the public facilities. Erie does not consider it feasible or practicable to provide Erie
Corporate Center with the public improvements. Consequently, it is necessary that the proposed
Districts be organized as a means to provide the residents and taxpayers with the necessary public
improvements.
6
B. General Powers of Districts
The Service District will have power and authority to provide the services and facilities
described in this Section both within and outside its boundaries, in accordance with law. The
powers and authorities of the Service District and the Financing Districts will be allocated and
further refined in a Master Intergovernmental Agreement between the Districts (the "Master IGA"),
the general form of which is described in Section V(A), which may be voted upon and approved by
their respective electorates. For purposes of the Special District Control Act, the Master IGA shall
not constitute an amendment of this Service Plan. It will, however, constitute a binding agreement
between the Districts regarding implementation of the powers contained in this Service Plan.
The Districts shall have authority to provide the following services and facilities, all of
which shall be in conformance with Erie's standards and specifications:
1. Sanitation. Pursuant to the annexation agreement between the Developer
and the Town concerning the land within the proposed Districts, the District shall not have the
ability to exercise or otherwise provide sanitary sewer services and improvements if the St. Vrain
Sanitation District provides such services, unless the St. Vrain Sanitation District consents to the
Districts exercise of such power. However, if sewer service to the property is provided by the
Town, then the District shall have the ability, without any St. Vrain Sanitation District consent, to
exercise sanitation powers and construct and otherwise fmance the Town required sewer main
improvements necessary for phased demand of the development. In such event, the District shall
have the power of design, acquisition, installation and construction of sanitary sewer lines and all
necessary or proper equipment and appurtenances incident thereto, together with all necessary,
incidental and appurtenant facilities, land and easements, and all necessary extensions of and
improvements to said facility or system.
2. Water. The design, acquisition, installation and construction of a
complete water and irrigation water system, including but not limited to transmission and

extensions of and improvements to said facilities or systems.
9. Legal Powers. The powers of the Districts will be exercised by the Boards
of Directors to provide the services contemplated in this Service Plan. The foregoing
improvements and services, along with all other activities permitted by law, will be undertaken in
accordance with, and pursuant to, the procedures and conditions contained in the Special District
Act, other applicable statutes, and this Service Plan, as any or all of the same may be amended from
time to time.
10. Other. In addition to the powers enumerated above, the Boards of Directors
of the Districts shall also have the following authority:
a. To amend this Service Plan as needed, subject to the appropriate statutory
8
procedures and as permitted under the Town IGA,by written notice to Erie pursuant to § 32-1-207,
C.R.S., of actions which the Districts believe are permitted by this Service Plan but which may be
unclear. In the event Erie elects not to seek to enjoin any such activities under said statute, such
election shall constitute agreement by Erie that such activities are within the scope of this Service
Plan. Each District shall have the right to amend this Service Plan independent of participation of
the other Districts; provided, however, that no District shall not be peiiuitted to amend those
portions of this Service Plan which affect, impair, or impinge upon the rights or powers of the other
Districts without such District's consent; and
b. To forego, reschedule, or restructure the financing and construction of
certain improvements and facilities, in order to better accommodate the pace of growth, resource
availability, and potential inclusions of property within the Districts, or if the development of the
improvements and facilities would best be performed by another entity; and
c. To provide all such additional services and exercise all such powers as are
expressly or impliedly granted by Colorado law, and which the Districts are required to provide or
exercise or,in its discretion, chooses to provide or exercise; and
d. To exercise all necessary and implied powers under Title 32, C.R.S. in the
reasonable discretion of the Boards of Directors, except as limited by this Service Plan.
III. DESCRIPTION OF FACILITIES AND IMPROVEMENTS
The Districts will be permitted to exercise their statutory powers and authority set forth
herein to finance, construct, acquire, operate and maintain the public facilities and improvements
described in Section II of this Service Plan either directly or by contract. Where appropriate, the
Districts will contract with various public and/or private entities to undertake such functions,
including, but not limited to the Master IGA and Town IGA as further described in Section V.
Detailed information for each type of improvement needed for Erie Corporate Center is set
forth in the following pages. It is important to note that the information contained in this Section is
conceptual and preliminary in nature only, and that modifications to the type, configuration, and
location of improvements will be necessary as development proceeds. All facilities will be
designed in such a way as to assure that the facility and service standards will be compatible with
those of Erie and other service providers, as appropriate.
The following sections contain general descriptions of the contemplated facilities and
improvements, which are expected to be funded by the Financial Districts and constructed or
caused to be constructed by the Service District.
A. General
Construction of all planned facilities and improvements will be scheduled to allow for
9
proper sizing and phasing to keep pace with the need for service. All descriptions of the specific
facilities and improvements to be constructed, and their related costs, are estimates only and are
subject to modification as engineering, development plans, economics, Erie's requirements, and
construction scheduling may require.
B. General Design Standards
Improvements within the Districts will be designed and installed by the Service District in
conformance with current standards adopted by the Service District and Erie. Designs and contract
documents prepared for improvements must be reviewed and approved by the Service District and
must be in accordance with Erie's applicable standards and specifications.
1. Wastewater System. The wastewater system will connect to Erie's sanitary
sewer system in a manner consistent with Erie's Sanitary Sewer Master Plan applicable to Erie
Corporate Center. The sanitary sewer lines will be designed and installed to conform to the current
standards and recommendations of the Colorado Department of Health, Erie, Rules and
Regulations adopted by the Districts and sound engineering judgment. All major elements of the
sanitary sewer lines required for proper operation will be designed and installed independently and
separately by the Developer.
2. Storm Drainage.
a. Generally. The Service District plans to install the necessary storm drainage
system to serve Erie Corporate Center that detain developed drainage and convey historic drainage
per the Town's construction standards. The proposed elements of the storm drainage system will
provide a network of ditches, culverts, and curbs and gutters designed and installed in accordance
with applicable regulatory standards and sound engineering judgment. The Service District will
design and install all storm drainage improvements except for specific improvements within
individual development parcels that will be designed and installed by individual developers.
All major storm drainage facilities will be designed to conform to the standards and
recommendations for drainage improvements pursuant to Erie design criteria, including the intent
of the current Urban Drainage and Flood Control District Master Plan requirements and the Rules
and Regulations of the Districts. The development plan for the proposed storm drainage system
within the project is more specifically described in Exhibit A.
b. Culverts. Culverts will be installed, as needed, under roadways that intersect
storm drainage channels. Culverts will be designed to pass flows as required and may include
headwalls, wing walls, inlet structures, and riprap protection to enhance their hydraulic capacity
and reduce bank or channel erosion.
An overall drainage plan will be developed that will identify the major facilities necessary
to convey the storm runoff from Erie Corporate Center. This plan will include all infrastructure
required to convey the flows generated within Erie Corporate Center. This plan must maintain the
10
flexibility to modify the major drainage facilities as more detailed information is generated during
the design of the individual phases. The overall drainage plan will include the utilization of storm
sewers, drainage channels, streets, gutters, and culverts.
3. Water System. The water system will consist of a water distribution
system consisting of buried water mains, fire hydrants, and related appurtenances located
predominately within the Districts' boundaries. The proposed domestic potable water distribution
system is expected to include pressurized water mains with multiple pressure zones. Water
system components will be installed in accordance with the applicable standards of all entities
with jurisdiction over the Districts, including Erie. The Drinking Water Design Criteria of the
Colorado Department of Health will also be followed where applicable. The water system will
also be designed based on Erie fire protection requirements. The individual water system
components will be sized based upon the projected potable, irrigation and fire flow requirements
of Erie Corporate Center.
The water distribution system will be dedicated to Erie. The system is expected to
include main distribution and transmission lines and related appurtenances. The mains will
provide for normal and peak water demands of the project as well as the delivery of fire
protection water. The development plan for the proposed water system is described in Exhibit A.
4. Street System and Traffic Safety
a. General. The Service District proposes to construct an arterial street system
to serve all of Erie Corporate Center. The existing and proposed elements of the street system will
provide a network of major arterial streets to serve the flow of traffic within and surrounding the
Districts. All facilities will be designed and installed in accordance with applicable regulatory
standards and sound engineering judgment. The development plan for the proposed street system is
more specifically described in Exhibit A.
b. Streets. Public streets will be designed and installed to conform to the
standards and recommendations of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation
Officials, the Colorado Department of Highways (where applicable), Erie's standards and
specifications and the Rules and Regulations adopted by the Districts. Traffic controls and signage
will be provided along streets to enhance the flow of traffic within Erie Corporate Center.
Streetlights will be funded on a pro rata basis by the Service District along collector roadways.
Lighting of local roadways will be the responsibility of the individual developers of the residential
parcels.
c. Landscaping. Landscaping may be installed by the Service District along
the roadway rights-of-way and trail easements. The Service District also intends to install and
maintain landscaping along the internal streets and entry features at major entrances, unless
dedicated to the Town. Additional features may be installed and maintained by the developers of
the individual parcels.
11
d. Signals and Signage. Signals and signage will be installed by the Service
District as required by traffic studies, the Service District's Rules and Regulations, and by Erie.
5. Park and Recreation. All park and recreational facilities and/or services will
be constructed in accordance with plans and specifications approved by Erie as set forth in Exhibit
A. All park and recreational facilities @arks and trails to service the development, and a pool to
serve the residential community) will be constructed in accordance with engineering and design
requirements appropriate for the surrounding terrain, and shall be compatible with Erie's standards
or the standards of other local public entities, as appropriate.
C. Estimated Cost of Facilities and Surety.
The estimated cost of the facilities to be constructed, installed and/or acquired by the
Financing District is shown in Exhibit D, and are exclusive of organizational costs, inflation and all
bond issuance costs, including but not limited to such issuance expenses like debt service reserves,
capitalized interest,underwriter's discount, and legal fees.
Any surety required of the Districts by Erie for completion of the public improvements that
are funded by the Districts, shall be set at an acceptable level by Erie taking into consideration the
quasi-municipal and publicly accessible nature of Title 32 metropolitan districts. The amounts and
timing of the surety required of the Districts will be based on final plat approval, and shall be due
for only the District funded improvements contemplated on a phase-by-phase basis. The District
surety requirements will be in addition to the estimated costs of the public improvements, and shall
not count against the debt limit contemplated herein.
IV. DEVELOPMENT PROJECTIONS
Land use within the project will be primarily residential and commercial. See Exhibit C,
"Development Projections" for proposed land classifications and densities.
V. PROPOSED AND EXISTING AGREEMENTS
A. Master Intergovernmental Agreement
As noted in this Service Plan, the relationship between the Service District and the
Financing Districts, including the means for approving, financing, constructing, and operating the
public services and improvements needed to serve Erie Corporate Center will be established by
means of a Master IGA to be executed by the Districts after organization. A final version of the
Master IGA shall be submitted to Erie after the election on the organization of the Districts, if not
prior thereto. The Districts shall not borrow any money, incur any debt, or impose any taxes or fees
until Erie approves the Master IGA, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The
obligation of the Districts set forth in the Master IGA shall not count against any bonded debt limit
or restriction of the Districts.
12
The Master IGA will establish extensive procedures and standards for the payment of the
capital costs of the improvements, the payment of operation and maintenance expenses, the
payment of the administrative expenses and the construction, acquisition, operation and
maintenance of the improvements and the administration of the affairs of the Districts by the
Service District.
B. Intergovernmental Agreement with Erie
Subsequent to their organization, the Districts may enter into an IGA with Erie (the "Town
IGA"), which may generally provide that: (1) Other than as set forth in this Service Plan, the
Districts shall take all action necessary to dissolve pursuant to Title 32, Article 1, part 7, C.R.S., as
amended from time to time, as provided for under Colorado law if and in the event they do not need
to remain in existence to operate and maintain facilities contemplated under this Service Plan; (2)
the Districts shall not publish, without written consent of Erie, a notice under 32-1-207(3), C.R.S.
of their intent to undertake construction of any facility, the issuance of bonds or other financial
obligation, the levy of taxes, the imposition of rates, fees, tolls and charges, or any other proposed
activity which requires that any action to enjoin such activity as a material departure from the
Service Plan be brought within forty-five (45) days of such notice; (3) that as a consequence of the
organization, the Districts shall assume certain development obligations of the Developer as set
forth in the annexation agreement; (4) the provisions of the annexation agreement and subdivision
improvement agreement for Erie Corporate Center shall prevail over inconsistent provisions in the
Service Plan; (5) the Districts are subject to Erie's zoning, subdivision and building codes and (6)
other provisions as mutually agreed by the parties. The Districts shall not borrow any money, incur
any debt or impose any taxes or fees until Erie and the Districts execute the Town IGA, and such
execution shall not be unreasonably withheld.
C. Other Agreements/Authority
To the extent practicable, the Districts may enter into additional intergovernmental and
other private agreements to better ensure long-term provision of the improvements and services
and effective management. Agreements may also be executed with property owner associations
and other service providers. All such agreements are authorized to be provided, pursuant to
Colorado Constitution, Article XIV, Section 18 (2)(a) and Sections 29-1-201, et seq., Colorado
Revised Statues. Upon formation, the Districts will enter into Erie's standard subdivision
improvement agreement ("SIA") for the public improvements that the Districts are able to
finance and otherwise provide. The Developer is expected to also enter into a SIA with Erie for
other improvements that the Districts will not be undertaking.
13
VI. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE COSTS
Estimated costs for operation and maintenance functions are presented in the Financing
Plan attached hereto as Exhibit F and are forecasted at approximately $36,000 per year at build-out
increasing at a rate of 4%per year over the life of the forecast.
VII. FINANCIAL PLAN
Attached to this Service Plan, as Exhibit F, is a Financing Plan that shows how the
proposed consolidated services and facilities may be financed and operated by the Districts. The
Financing Plan demonstrates one method that might be used by the Districts; however, alternative
plans may be employed and utilized without additional approval so long as such plans are within
the parameters and limits contained herein and do not constitute a material modification of the
Service Plan. The Financing Plan includes the proposed operating revenue derived from ad
valorem property taxes for each applicable year, including the first budget year, to be used by the
Service District. The Master IGA is expected to provide that the obligation of the Financing
Districts to pay the Service District for capital and general operating expenses of the Districts shall
constitute "contractual debt" of the Financing Districts, but shall not count against any general
obligation debt limit. Accordingly, mill levies certified to make necessary payments to the Service
District may be characterized as debt service mill levies notwithstanding that they are imposed in
part to pay contractual obligations for operations and maintenance services provided by the Service
District. Initially, the Service District anticipates borrowing its initial operating and capital project
funds from advances made by the Developer or other private entities and/or by issuing revenue
bonds until such time as the Districts are able to generate sufficient revenues from ad valorem mill
levies or from other legally permissible revenue sources. It is anticipated that the Service District
will issue revenue bonds with appropriate credit enhancement, if any, provided by the Developer
- and secured by pledge agreements from the Financing Districts. The Financing Districts may issue
limited tax general obligation debt supported by ad valorem mill levies in order to retire the revenue
bonds issued by the Service District, repay developer advances and/or as an alternative way for
providing the public improvements contemplated herein. Proceeds from such bonds are also
anticipated to be used for, but are not limited to, reimbursing all funds borrowed by the Service
District to finance the acquisition, construction and completion of improvements and to pay for all
of the costs of issuance of the bonds.
Prior to the closing of any bond issue, the Districts shall provide Erie with an opinion from
the legal counsel stating that the bond issue is in conformance with the Service Plan. Additionally,
in order to allow Erie an opportunity for review, the issuing District shall provide Erie with
substantially final forms of any indenture, authorizing resolution and offering document intended to
be adopted by the District. Erie shall have ten (10) business days from receipt of such documents
to provide the Districts with any and all objections that the structure or terms of such bond issue are
in conflict with this Service Plan. Failure to make such timely objection shall constitute consent to
the proposed issuance. Pursuant to the Town IGA, the Districts shall be responsible for all
reasonable costs of Erie's review, conditioned upon Erie providing the Districts with a not-to-
exceed estimate prior to such review.
14
The Financing Plan identifies the proposed debt issuance schedules of the Districts, and
shows the manner in which the financial operations of the Districts will be coordinated. Each
District shall be permitted to impose a mill levy not to exceed forty-five (45) mills for debt service
requirements, and an aggregate of fifty (50) mills for combined debt service and operational and
maintenance requirements of the Districts (collectively referred to as the "Mill Levy Cap"). The
Mill Levy Cap shall be subject to automatic adjustment if, after the original date of approval of
this Service Plan, the laws of the State change with respect to the assessment of property for
taxation purposes, the ratio for determining assessed valuation changes, or other similar changes
occur. In these events, the Mill Levy Cap shall be automatically adjusted so that the tax liability
of individual property owners neither increases nor decreases as a result of any such changes
thereby maintaining a constant level of tax receipts of the Districts and overall tax payments
from property owners. The Districts may eliminate the Mill Levy Cap with Erie's consent.
Upon approval of this Service Plan, the Districts will continue to develop and refine cost
estimates contained herein and prepare for bond issuances. All cost estimates will be inflated to
current dollars at the time of bond issuance and construction. Engineering and other contingencies,
as well as capitalized interest and other costs of financing may be added. All construction cost
estimates assume construction to applicable local, state or federal requirements.
The total estimated costs of improvements are $18,011,582 (in 2003 dollars) set forth in
Exhibit D, exclusive of organizational costs, interest on amounts borrowed from Developer and
other similar costs as well as cost of bond issuance (which shall expressly include, but not be
limited to debt service reserves, capitalized interest, underwriter's discounts, and legal fees).
Organizational costs are estimated to be $80,000 and will be reimbursed to the Developer by the
Districts out of their initial revenue sources, including bond proceeds. The combined new money
revenue and general obligation debt limit ("Debt Limit"), for the Districts will be $27,000,000,
inclusive of organizational costs, but exclusive of any surety requirement and the costs of issuance
contemplated above, so that the Districts shall have the authority to issue debt in an amount
sufficient to fully finance and construct all facilities contemplated herein and fully implement the
Service Plan without the need to seek approval of any modification of this Service Plan. Increases
in debt necessary to accomplish a refunding, re-issuance or restructuring of debt shall not count
against the Debt Limit. Obligations of the Districts in the Master IGA will not count against the
Debt Limit. If the assumptions contained in the Financing Plan are more conservative than what
actually develops, the Districts, upon Erie's approval, shall have the ability to utilize excess debt
capacity, which may develop within the Districts. The Districts shall also be permitted to seek
debt authorization from their electorates in excess of the Debt Limit to account for contingencies.
Reasonable modifications of public facilities and cost estimates shall be permitted. Final
determination of the amount of debt for which approval will be sought from each District's
electorate from time to time will be made by the Board of Directors of each District based on
then current estimates of construction costs, issuance costs, and contingencies. Authorization to
issue bonds and enter into various agreements described herein will be sought from each
District's electorate pursuant to the terms of the Special District Act, and the Colorado
Constitution, as amended from time to time.
15
In addition to ad valoieni property taxes, and in order to offset the expenses of the
anticipated construction and the Service District operations and maintenance costs, the Districts
may also rely upon various other revenue sources authorized by law. These will include the power
to assess fees, rates, tolls, penalties, or charges as provided in § 32-1-1001(1), C.R.S., as amended.
To the extent the Districts desire to adopt a fee not specifically contemplated pursuant to the
Financing Plan, they shall advise Erie of the level of the anticipated fee and the reasons therefor and
obtain Erie's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Financing Plan assumes
various sources of revenue, including ad valorem property taxes and specific ownership taxes,
together with interest earnings on retained amounts. Additionally, the Districts may receive certain
revenues from reimbursement payments for the construction of public facilities as more fully
described within the Financing Plan.
The Financing Plan does not project any significant accumulation of fund balances that
might represent receipt of revenues in excess of expenditures under the TABOR Amendment. The
operations of the Service District may, under certain circumstances, qualify as "enterprises" under
the TABOR Amendment. If its operations do not qualify as enterprises under TABOR, revenues
from all sources that exceed the permitted level of expenditures in a given year will be refunded to
taxpayers, unless a vote approving the retention of such revenues is obtained. To the extent annual
district revenues exceed expenditures in this manner, the Districts will comply with the provisions
of TABOR and either refund the excess or obtain voter approval to retain such amounts.
The maximum voted interest rate for bonds will be 18%. The proposed maximum
underwriting discount will be 5%. The maximum term of bonds issued by the Districts shall be
forty (40) years, and it shall be a condition that any amount of outstanding principal and/or
accrued interest that remains unpaid upon final maturity of the bonds shall be deemed to be
forever discharged and satisfied in full. Interest on all bonds and other debt instruments of the
Districts, inclusive of reimbursement obligations to the Developer, shall be restricted to simple
interest and will not compound. Acceleration of debt service shall be prohibited upon all bonds and
other debt instruments of the Districts, inclusive of reimbursement obligations to the Developer.
In the discretion of the Boards of Directors, the Districts may set up other qualifying entities
to manage, fund, construct and operate facilities, services, and programs. To the extent allowed by
law, any entity created by the Districts will remain under the control of its Board of Directors.
The Financing Plan demonstrates that the Districts will have the financial capability to
discharge the proposed indebtedness with reasonable mill levies assuming reasonable increases in
assessed valuation and assuming the rate of build-out estimated in the Financing Plan.
VIII. OTHER REQUIREMENTS
The Districts shall be subject to the following additional requirements:
1. The Districts shall be responsible for submitting an annual report to Erie no later than
16
March 1 of the subsequent fiscal year. The annual report shall include information as to any of

assure that the developers of the property located within the Districts provide adequate written
notice to purchasers of land in the Districts regarding the existence of taxes, charges, or
assessments which may be imposed in connection with the Districts by providing a written
disclosure of the same. It is anticipated that the petitioners will require that all builders
purchasing property within the Districts from the petitioners will provide such disclosure to
homebuyers at the time of contracting. The disclosure shall include, but not necessarily be
limited to the following matters: (1) the Districts' authorized debt; (2) facilities and services to be
operated and maintained by the Districts or via contract with the HOA; (3) maximum mill levy
and the procedure for any adjustment thereto; (4) any applicable fees and a statement that such
fees are separate from any applicable HOA fees. Subsequent to organization, the Districts shall
17
record the disclosure in the real property records of the County of Weld, State of Colorado.
IX. CONCLUSIONS

Erie, Colorado
Summary of Significant Assumptions and Accounting Policies
December 31, 2003 through 2049
The following forecast presents, to the best of the Petitioner's knowledge and belief, the expected
cash receipts and disbursements for the forecast period. Accordingly, the forecast reflects the
Petitioner's judgment as of November 6, 2003. The assumptions disclosed herein are those that
the Petitioner believes are significant to the forecast. There will usually be differences between
the forecasted and actual results, because events and circumstances frequently do not occur as
expected, and those differences may be material.
The purpose of this forecast is to show the amount of funds available for construction of
infrastructure within the Districts by the issuance of promissory notes to the Developer and the
anticipated funds available for repayment of the promissory notes.
The Petitioner anticipates the formation of three (3)Title 32 Special Districts.
Note 1. Ad Valorem and Specific Ownership Taxes
Residential property is currently assessed at approximately 7.96% of actual
value. The market values of residential units within the District will range from
$280,000 to $750,000 and will vary based upon the type of unit, development
location and lot size. Market values are inflated at 4% per year commencing at
full buildout of all units. Commercial property is currently assessed at 29% of
actual value. The market value of commercial property within the District
assumes a range of 21 to 24% coverage, at a value of $100 per square foot of
building.
•
Property is assumed to be assessed annually as of January 1. Residences are
assumed to be assessed on January 1 of the year following the year of
construction. The forecast of property tax revenue recognizes the related
revenue in the subsequent year.
The Weld County Treasurer currently charges a 1.5% fee for the collection of
property taxes on the assessed property and improvements. These charges are
reflected in the accompanying forecasts as Treasurer's fees.
The forecast assumes that Specific Ownership Taxes collected on motor vehicle
registrations will be 5.0% of property taxes collected.
The mill levy proposed to be imposed by the Districts is initially projected to be
39.6 mills on the residential units and 10.9 mills on the commercial property.
This levy is used to pay construction financing debt service, general obligation
debt service and operating expenses of the District
Note 2. Interest Income
Revenues received by the Districts are assumed to be invested, until expended,
at a rate of 2.0%. Interest income earned is based on the beginning cash
balance each year and includes an estimate of the timing of the receipt of other
revenues and the disbursement of funds during the year.
Note 3. Bond Issuance Assumptions
Initially, District No. 1 proposes to issue its promissory notes based upon the
need for construction, operating and debt service funds for the project. The
Developer will advance funds to the District for these purposes in exchange for
the District's promissory notes. The promissory notes will bear a variable interest
rate, estimated at 8.5%. District No. 1 contemplates and proposes to issue
revenue bonds to pay for public improvements, which will constitute special
revenue obligations payable from all moneys collected from District Nos. 2 and 3
pursuant to a pledge agreement between the Districts. District Nos. 2 and 3 may
issue issue general obligation bonds to refund any outstanding promissory notes
of District No. 1 and to pay for public improvements. Based upon the
• aforementioned assessment ratios, District No. 2's mill levy is projected to not
exceed 40 mills and District No. 3's mill levy is not expected to exceed 11 mills to
pay debt service obligations and operating expenses of the District. The general
obligation bonds will be issued in denominations of $5,000 or multiples thereof
and will bear an estimated interest rate of 6.0%.
Note 4. Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for legal, accounting, audit and management are forecast to
be $36,000 per year. Operating expenses are inflated at a constant rate of 4.0%
per year over the life of the forecast.
Note 5. Construction Costs
Construction costs of infrastructure are estimated to be $18,011,582.
