Since their return, the Legislature continued their quick pace of progressing bills to meet the second house fiscal deadline of August 27. Prior to the fiscal deadline, the Assembly and Senate Appropriations Committees held their suspense file hearings, wherein bills determined to have a significant fiscal impact either progress, become 2-year bills, or are held under suspense and are no longer active. The Assembly Appropriations Committee acted on 205 measures from its Suspense File and passed 80 percent, with just over half of the passed measures incorporating amendments. The Senate Appropriations Committee acted on 322 measures from its Suspense File and passed 79 percent, which also featured about half of measures incorporating amendments. Following the fiscal deadline, the Legislature had until September 3 to amend bills before they continue a strict floor-session-only protocol until the September 10 deadline. As of now, a total of 475 bills await action for the final week of session, with 223 awaiting consideration in the Assembly and 252 awaiting consideration in the Senate. Budget Trailer Bills Released On September 6, the language of several long awaited budget trailer bills was released. These budget trailer bills amend the main budget bill passed in June and provide for increased clarity on how certain funding programs in the adopted Budget are administered , as well as provide updated or adjusted dollar amounts based on negotiations. Two budget trailer bills, AB/SB 155 and AB/SB 170 include the following: • An increase of funding for Drought Resilience from $1.385 billion to $1.55 billion • An increase of funding for groundwater cleanup and water recycling projects from $85 million to $200 million • CEQA exemptions for projects that conserve, restore, protect, or enhance, and assist in the recovery of California native fish and wildlife, and habitat upon which the y depend or that restore or provide habitat for California native fish and wildlife Page 6 of 109 2 • Changes to water diversion reporting requirements While these trailer bills make certain substantial changes, additional trailer bill language is required to allocate and administer the more than $3 billion for drought relief included in the adopted Budget framework. If legislators are unable to introduce and pass additional language addressing this yet to be addressed issue, they will have to work through a special session of the Legislature during the Interim Recess or handle it when they return in January 2022. Priority Housing and Land Use Legislation Update This month featured the progression and failure of numerous key housing and land use bills. The Assembly passed the highly contentious SB 9 (Atkins), which would require the ministerial approval off a housing development of up to two units, or the subdivis ion of a parcel into two equal parcels, by a 45-19 vote. The bill will now head to the Governor’s desk for a signature or veto. As of now, the Governor has not made any public statements on whether he would sign it. Even if the recall election is successfu l, he could still sign the bill prior to leaving office. SB 9 is one of two high-profile bills that passed the Assembly before final concurrence. SB 10 (Wiener), which would permit a local government to pass an ordinance to rezone any parcel up to 10 units of residential density per parcel, also passed on a narrow 41-9 vote, with many democrats abstaining over concerns with the bill’s potential impact on gentrification. Notably, the SB 10 vote happened prior to the vote for SB 9. The tight margin for the SB 10 vote likely had an impact on lobbying efforts from legislative members seeking to sway fellow democrats to support SB 9. SB 10 is currently on the Governor’s desk for his signature or veto. In addition to the passage of housing bills SB 9 and SB 10, numerous priority bills related to housing and land use met their fate during the appropriations suspense file hearings . Below is a brief overview of a few housing and land use bills and their outcomes: • AB 989 (Gabriel), which would create an Office of Housing Appeals within the California Department of Housing and Community Development to review alleged violations of the Housing Accountability Act for specified housing development projects, passed out of committee and will move to the Senate for consideration. • AB 1401 (Friedman), which would prohibit local governments from imposing or enforcing a minimum parking requirement on developments near public transit, was held under suspense and is no longer active. • AB 215 (Chiu), which would provide the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) with additional enforcement authority for local agency violations of specified housing laws, passed out of committee and will move to the Senate for consideration. Recall Election Update As the Legislature continues their typical process of advancing legislation to the Governor’s desk, the Governor is still dealing with an upcoming recall election on September 14, 2021. If effectively recalled, Governor Newsom would be able to act on bills until the election is certified. It is anticipated that the Secretary of State would take the full time that is permitted (30 business days) Page 7 of 109 3 to certify the election. This would keep the Governor in office past the deadline for him to act on legislation. This month, a federal judge affirmed in a recent ruling that California’s recall process is constitutional. This follows certain legal scholars questioning the process in recent we eks because the two-question recall ballot makes it possible for a candidate to replace Newsom with fewer votes. Two Los Angeles voters filed a federal suit challenging the recall process and asking a court to either cancel the September 14 election or to add Governor Newsom’s name to the list of replacement candidates on the second part of the ballot. Judge Fitzgerald ruled that the plaintiff “plainly feels disgruntled that a replacement candidate with a small plurality might replace a sitting governor who, based on a robust ‘No’ vote, might well have beaten that same replacement candidate in a general election,” and that, “such disgruntlement raises no federal constitutional issues and certainly does not give the federal judiciary the right to halt the mam moth undertaking of this gubernatorial recall election.” State Capitol Under New COVID-19 Rules Prior to the Legislature’s return from summer recess, two memos were sent to all California State Capitol staff and lawmakers announcing mandatory twice -weekly COVID-19 testing, regardless of vaccination status. Mandatory masks and social distancing are also part of the daily routine. These new requirements arise from an uptick in COVID -19 cases within the State Capitol community, with many of them being from vaccinated individuals. Following the testing mandate, Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon announced that every employee of the Assembly will be required to begin the process of getting fully vaccinated by Septemb er 1. As of now, a vaccine requirement has not been established in the Senate. These measures are intended to ensure that the remaining weeks of session are held in -person, rather than virtually. However, meetings with the public are still primarily being conducted virtually. Federal Legislative Update The Senate adjourned for their standard August recess on August 11, just shortly after passing the framework for budget reconciliation and the bipartisan infrastructure deal. The House briefly broke from their recess to adopt the reconciliation framework. Both chambers will resume session on September 13. When they return, Congress will work toward passing the $3.5 trillion Budget through the reconciliation process. Some lawmakers have been calling for bot h chambers to reconvene earlier than planned to address the ongoing situation in Afghanistan, but it appears unlikely that Speaker Pelosi or Majority Leader Schumer will end the August recess early. Budget Reconciliation At the beginning of the month the Senate introduced and passed the framework for the $3.5 trillion Budget Resolution. The process, known as budget reconciliation, is a multi -step process that will play out in Congress between now and the fall. The framework was adopted by the Hou se on August 24. The process will continue with the relevant House committee’s mark -up scheduled to begin the first two weeks of September. The resolution provides a target date of Sept ember 15 for the committees to submit their reconciliation legislation. Page 8 of 109 4 Infrastructure Package On August 1 the bipartisan group of Senators negotiating the infrastructure spending bill finally released legislative text. The bill contains the biggest infusion of U.S. federal spending on infrastructure in decades. It include s roughly $110 billion in new spending for roads and bridges, $73 billion of electric grid upgrades, $66 billion for rail and Amtrak, and $65 billion for broadband expansion. It also provides $55 billion for clean drinking water and $39 billion for transit . On August 10, the Senate passed the infrastructure bill on a 69 -30 vote. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has said the House will take up a vote on the bill by September 27. Appropriations The House of Representatives passed nine of 12 annual appropriati ons bills to fund the federal government past the September 30 fiscal deadline. These included the standalone Legislative Branch (H.R. 4346) and State -Foreign Operations (H.R. 4373) measures and a seven -bill mini- bus package (H.R. 4502) covering Agriculture-FDA, Energy & Water, Financial Services, Interior- Environment, Labor-HHS-Education, Military Construction-VA, and Transportation-HUD. Included in the House bills were hundreds of earmarks for member -sponsored Community Projects. Passage in the House is a significant step for these projects but there are many hurdles left before they become law. The Senate began its work on its appropriations bills, with Agriculture -FDA and Energy and Water Development receiving full committee consideration on Wednesday, August 4. Congress is unlikely to agree on all twelve funding bills prior to the end of the federal fiscal year on September 30. When lawmakers return from August recess, conversations will turn to a continuing resolution to fund the government past the deadline at current levels. Conversations with Capitol Hill staff indicate that lawmakers will need until after Thanksgiving at the earliest to strike a deal on government funding. Federal Eviction Moratorium On August 26, the Supreme Court blocked the Biden Administration’s extension of the eviction moratorium, effectively ending the practice. The CDC had previously extended the national eviction moratorium until October 3 for areas of high and substantial transmission. This covered every county in California except for Modoc and Plumas. The Department of Treasury and the Department of Justice are working to encourage states and localities to put in place additional protections against evictions, including for tenants whose applications are awaiting review. On August 11, Attorney General Merrick Garland met with over 35 chief justices of state supreme courts to emphasize eviction diversion strategies and highlight the Associate Attorney General’s June letter outlining steps that state courts could take to raise awareness of emergency rental assistance and to implement eviction diversion strategies in their jurisdictions. FEMA Reimbursement Extension California’s Project Roomkey program will continue to receive federal assistance through the end of the calendar year, a benefit that was set to expire in the Fall. The Biden Administration also expanded the authority of FEMA to provide 100 percent Federal cost share for all work eligible Page 9 of 109 5 under Public Assistance Category B through December 31, 20 21. Items that fall into the Assistance Category B are defined as Emergency Protective Measures— Emergency Protective Measures are actions taken by a community before, during, and following a disaster to save lives, protect public health and safety, or eliminate immediate threat of significant damage to improved public and private property through cost effective measures. COVID-19 The FDA recently granted full approval to the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine for people 16 and older. This is the first vaccine to earn full approval in the U.S. Pfizer and BioNTech are currently studying the vaccines safety and efficacy in younger children and infants. They are expected to seek emergency authorization for 5 -to-11-year-olds this Fall. The Biden Administration announced plans for COVID-19 vaccine booster shots, recommending that individuals receive the boosters eight months after their last dose. Distribution of the boosters will begin September 20, pending approval from the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

AGENDA REPORT MEETING DATE:September 14, 2021 TO:Board of Directors FROM:Brett R. Barbre, General Manager STAFF CONTACTS:Delia Lugo, Finance Manager Kelly McCann, Senior Accountant SUBJECT:Budget to Actual Reports for the Month Ending July 31, 2021 RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of Directors receive and file the Budget-to-Actual Reports for the Month Ending July 31, 2021. DISCUSSION: For the month ending July 31, 2021, staff is presenting Budget-to-Actual Reports for the District as a whole, as well as the individual water and sewer funds. Cumulative Volumetric Water Revenue, as reported for the month ending July 31, 2021, reflects an average decrease of 13.76% as compared to the prior year for the same reporting period. Residential customer connections had the highest decrease in consumption sales of 14.80% as compared to reported results from the prior year. Total Variable Costs results, as reported through the month ending July 31, 2021, reflect a 64.21% increase when compared to prior year for the same reporting period. The increase in costs is predominantly reflective of having to use 100% import water to meet system demand. STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVES: G2 3B – Regularly assess net position and steps to meet strategic goals.

AGENDA REPORT MEETING DATE:September 14, 2021 TO:Board of Directors FROM:Brett R. Barbre, General Manager STAFF CONTACTS:Delia Lugo, Finance Manager Kelly McCann, Senior Accountant SUBJECT:Cash and Investment Report for the Period Ending July 31, 2021 RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of Directors receive and file the Cash and Investment Report for the Period Ending July 31, 2021. BACKGROUND: Government Code Section 530607, et. seq., requires the person delegated to invest funds to make a monthly report of investments to the legislative body. The Cash & Investment Portfolio Report presents the market value and percent yield for all District investments by institution. The Cash & Investment Summary Report includes budget and actual interest and average term portfolio information as well as market value broken out by reserve categories. The Fair Value Measurement Report categorizes investments by the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The Unrestricted Reserves and Days in Cash Graph presents Water Unrestricted Reserve Balances and Days in Cash at a particular point in time for the last seven years. The average portfolio yield for the month ending July 31, 2021, is .30%. The District's Total Cash and Investment balance on July 31, 2021, resulted in an overall decrease in the investment balance from the previous month by approximately $1,755,467. A larger balance change includes a decrease in the Water Operating Fund by $1,320,713, primarily due to payment of the CalPERS annual unfunded liability and OCWD bi-annual replenishment assessments. While the Sewer Operating Fund had an increase of $19,494 due to a positive net effect between operating revenues and expenses through the reporting month of the fiscal year. The Water Capital Project Fund had a decrease of $260,801 and a decrease in the Sewer Capital Project Fund by $207,023, both to cover the cost of pay-go capital purchases. The PARS fund had an increase of $7,323 due to an increase in the value of investments. STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVES: Page 58 of 109 G2 4C - Manage cash flow to maximize investment income.

AGENDA REPORT MEETING DATE:September 14, 2021 TO:Board of Directors FROM:Brett R. Barbre, General Manager STAFF CONTACTS:Rosanne P. Weston, Engineering Manager Ricardo Hipolito Jr., Assistant Engineer II Reza Afshar, Senior Engineer SUBJECT:Declaration of Restrictive Covenants with Carlos E. Serna and Saskia V. Serna RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of Directors authorize the President and General Manager to execute the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants with Carlos E. Serna and Saskia V. Serna of 4720 Avenida De Las Estrellas, Yorba Linda. SUMMARY: The District has a recorded water pipeline easement within lot 76 of Tract No. 10120. The property owners, Carlos E. Serna and Saskia V. Serna, are requesting to construct a 5-foot high retaining wall, and retain the existing encroachments within the District's water easement as shown on the attached exhibit. Staff reviewed the request and recommended approval subject to the execution of a Declaration of Restrictive Covenants. FISCAL IMPACT: None: BACKGROUND: Property owners Carlos E. Serna and Saskia V. Serna requested permission to construct a 5- foot retaining wall while retaining existing encroachments including a 2-foot high planter area, palm trees, removable storage shed, and concrete slab within the dedicated water easement at 4720 Avenida De Las Estrellas (lot 76 of tract 10120). The improvements run parallel and across within the easement as shown in the attached exhibit. The District has an existing 8- inch waterline within the easement. Staff reviewed the applicant's request and determined that the improvements and encroachments would have minimal impact on the day-to-day operation and maintenance of Page 66 of 109 the District facilities. However, if the District needs to excavate within the easement to facilitate repairs or replacement of the public water system, the subject property owner improvements and encroachments may need to be removed and may be damaged in the process. The owner understands that with the execution of a Declaration of Restrictive Covenants, the District would not be liable for the damage to and replacement of these improvements. Staff recommends the execution of the attached document, subject to approval as to form by General Counsel. PRIOR RELEVANT BOARD ACTION: The Board of Directors has authorized the execution of a Declaration of Restrictive Covenants with other property owners for similar improvements within the District's easements.

The Owner is the legal owner of that certain real property located at 4720 Avenida De Las Estrellas (“Subject Property”), which is more particularly described as follows: LOT 76 OF TRACT NO 10120, IN THE CITY OF YORBA LINDA, COUNTY OF ORANGE, STATE OF CALIFORNIA, AS PER MAP RECORDED IN BOOK 443, PAGES 29 TO 32 INCLUSIVE OF MISCELLANEOUS MAPS, IN THE OFFICE OF THE COUNTY RECORDER OF SAID COUNTY. B. YLWD owns an Easement, as identified on the Tract Map No. 10120, recorded on November 22, 1978, in Book 443, Pages 29 to 32, Official Records of Orange County, California (“Easement”), across a portion of the Subject Property.

The Owner desires to construct a 5-foot retaining wall, and retain an existing 2 foot planter, vinyl fence, concrete slab, palm trees, removable storage shed and landscape (collectively herein referred to as “Improvements”) within and along the Easement area. This Declaration prohibits Owner, without YLWD’s authorization and a recorded amendment to this Declaration, from constructing and/or retaining any improvements (“Unauthorized Improvements”) other than the Improvements. D. The construction, existence, and/or use of the Improvements within and along the Easement area is hereinafter referred to as the “Encroachment”, which is illustrated in Exhibit “A” attached hereto. E. YLWD conditionally consents to the Encroachment as stipulated in this Declaration. The Owner is aware and hereby acknowledges that the Encroachment may lead to problems affecting and/or interfering with YLWD’s use of the Easement and access to YLWD Facilities. F. Although the construction and subsequent existence of the Improvements within and along the Easement area may interfere or restrict YLWD’s Easement rights, which may cause the Improvements to be damaged or demolished as authorized under this Declaration, the Owner wishes to proceed with the Encroachment. DECLARATION NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, covenants, and terms and conditions herein, the Parties declare as follows: 1. Covenant Running with Land. This Declaration constitutes a covenant running with the land as provided by the California Civil Code Section 1468 and shall benefit, burden, and bind the successive owners of the Subject Property and the Easement. 2. Successors and Assigns Obligation. Since the Owner wishes to retain the Encroachment, this Declaration obligates the current and future owners of the Subject Property to remedy any current and future adverse events and to fund any necessary maintenance and repair costs on the Easement and/or Subject Property that may arise in full or in part due to the existence, construction, or damages to the Easement and/or YLWD Facilities caused by the Encroachment. 3. Damages to YLWD Facilities. The Owner assumes full responsibility and liability and shall pay for any cost(s) or damage(s) to the YLWD Facilities, arising from the Encroachment. YLWD shall not be responsible for any cost(s) or damage(s) to the YLWD Facilities that arise from the Encroachment. Page 69 of 109 Page 3 of 5 YLWD – Dec of Restrictive Covenants (8/21) 4. Damages to Third Parties. The Owner, its successors or assigns, agrees to defend, indemnify and hold YLWD, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and consultants, harmless against any third-party claims arising out of the Encroachment. 5. Damages to Improvements. The Owner acknowledges that the Improvements may be damaged or demolished to permit access to, or work within and under, the Easement area and YLWD Facilities. YLWD, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and consultants, shall not be responsible or liable for any damage(s) to, or demolition of, the Improvements which result from YLWD’s exercise of rights under the Easement. The Owner, its successors or assigns, waives all known, unknown, and future claims, liabilities, causes of action, and expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees) against YLWD, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and consultants, for losses and damages to the Improvements and from any obligation to protect, preserve, repair, or replace the Improvements. 6. Unauthorized Improvements. Owner shall not construct and/or retain any improvements other than the Improvements. If Owner constructs and/or retains any improvement other than the Improvements, YLWD may (a) require the improvement to be removed promptly at the Owner’s expense, (b) revoke the Encroachment, and/or (c) exercise any other legal remedy available to YLWD. Such Unauthorized Improvements shall be treated as Improvements and subject to this Declaration until YLWD makes it election under (a), (b), and/or (c) of this provision. GENERAL PROVISIONS 7.

This Declaration represents the entire and integrated agreement between the Parties and supersedes all prior negotiations, representations, or agreements, either written or oral. 9. Amendment to this Declaration. This Declaration may be amended only by written instrument signed by the Parties. 10. No Implied Waivers. If any term, condition, or provision of this Declaration is breached by either Party and thereafter waived by the other Party, that waiver will be limited to the specific breach so waived, and will not be deemed either to be a continual waiver or to waive any other breach under this Declaration. 11. Governing Law and Interpretation. This Declaration is to be governed under the laws of the State of California and interpreted according to its plain meaning as if drafted by both YLWD and Owner.

The referee must have substantial experience in the type of matter in dispute and without any relationship to either Party, unless the Parties agree otherwise. All costs incurred in connection with the judicial reference proceeding, including the cost of the stenographic record, shall be advanced equally by the Parties. However, the referee shall have the power to reallocate such costs among the Parties in the referee’s statement of decision. 14. Attorney’s Fees. In the event of any claim or legal action arising out of this Declaration, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable costs and expenses, including attorney’s fees. 15. Severability. If any provision, right, or covenant of this Declaration is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the voided provision, right, or covenant shall be deemed severed from the remaining provisions of this Declaration, which shall remain valid and enforceable as permitted by law, and the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to replace the unenforceable provision(s) in accordance with the original purpose and intent of this Declaration so stated in the above Recitals. 16. Counterparts. This Declaration may be signed in multiple counterpart copies (signatures may be by facsimile or electronic mail), each of which shall be deemed an original. 17. Capacity of Signatory. The undersigned executing this Declaration on behalf of YLWD and Owner hereby personally warrant by signing this Declaration that they are authorized to bind such Party in executing this Declaration and are acting within the course and scope of that authority. 18.

Barbre, General Manager STAFF CONTACTS:John DeCriscio, Operations Manager Freddie Ojeda, Operations Superintendent SUBJECT:Award of Contract for Painting Services RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of Directors authorize the General Manager to execute a maintenance services agreement with CertaPro Painters of Huntington Beach for an amount not to exceed $235,000 for the YLWD Campus and Well Site Painting Project. SUMMARY: In its FY21-22 budget, the Operations Department allocated $150,000 for Painting and Fence repairs to be performed on the District’s main campus and well site facilities. On August 16, 2021, the District solicited requests for proposals to perform painting services at these facilities. Seven (7) vendors expressed interest in bidding for the job. Staff provided each of the vendors with the same complete scope of work with paint specifications and District approved paint colors. Staff also conducted a job walk with all interested contractors. The bid closing date was August 31, 2021, at 2:00 p.m. and the District received three (3) sealed bids, of which two (2) met YLWD's requirements as laid out in the Scope of Work for the project. FISCAL IMPACT: Budgeted: Yes Total Budget: $150,000 Cost Estimate: $235,000 BACKGROUND: Each vendor that submitted a proposal was given specifics as to how they were to submit those bids, including a Scope of Work and required materials. Two of the vendors had complete proposals, one only submitted an incomplete one-page proposal with the total cost. Page 74 of 109 Below are the bids in order by cost. Vincor Construction (Incomplete Proposal): $165,000 CertaPro Painters of Huntington Beach: $235,000 FB&E: $332,263 When reviewing the submitted proposals, Vincor failed to meet the proposal submittal requirements as listed in Section #5 on the scope of work, and as such, we are excluding them from consideration. The Operations department recommends CertaPro Painters of Huntington Beach to perform the painting services as laid out in the scope of work for a total amount not to exceed $235,000. References were called to verify satisfaction of service. CertaPro has previously provided painting services for the District satisfactorily at the following locations: Lakeview Booster Pump Station, Quarter Horse Reservoir, Santiago Reservoir, Box Canyon Booster Pump Station, and Elk Mountain Booster Station.

I am thrilled to have been included on the Nominating Committee's recommended slate. The official Region 10 Board Ballot was sent out at the beginning of August. I kindly request that you consider casting your agency vote for me. As Vice Chair I commit to collaborating with water agencies in San Diego and Orange Counties to identify, discuss and resolve water issues of mutual concern and advocate for our interests on the ACW A Board. My experience in the public sector working collaborative on local and state water policy issues has prepared me for this role. I retired from the San Diego County Water Authority in March 2019, after working 30 years in water policy and was elected to the Santa Fe Irrigation District Board of Directors in November 2020. Throughout my career at the Water Authority and now as an SFID Board member, my priority and passion has been to work collaboratively. During my career, I coordinated with the Water Authority's 24 member agency managers to develop water plans and policies for the San Diego region. I served as an alternate on the California Urban Water Agencies Board, working with CUWA member agencies on statewide water issues. I also served on a state formed Urban Advisory Group, coordinating with water agencies statewide, to advocate our position on a 2017 Framework Report to implement Governor Brown's water conservation executive order. I have supported ACW A and its mission my entire career. I was a contributor to the 2005 ACW A Blueprint Report, "No Time to Waste: A Blueprint for California Water" and recently served on ACWA's Water Management Committee and a technical working group that drafted water-use efficiency legislation. I have also presented at ACW A conferences on water policy and water-use efficiency issues. It would be my honor to serve as Vice Chair on the Region 10 Board and I humbly ask for your vote. I hope you will contact me via email at DFriehauf@SFIDWater.org with your questions. ~-ely, }__/aA~ Dana Friehauf Santa Fe Irrigation District Director, Division 2 Santa Fe Irrigation District-PO Box 409 -5920 Lin ea de!
