INTRODUCTION 
This Feasibility Report (this “Report”) has been prepared for presentation to the Board of Directors of Festival Ranch Community 
Facilities District (City of Buckeye, Arizona) (the “District”) in connection with the proposed issuance by the District of its 
General Obligation Bonds, Series 2026 (the “Bonds”), in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $8,000,000.  The Bonds 
will be issued pursuant to the Community Facilities District Act of 1988, Title 48, Chapter 4, Article 6, Arizona Revised Statutes 
(“A.R.S.”). 
PURPOSE OF FEASIBILITY REPORT 
This Report has been prepared for consideration of the feasibility and benefits of the Public Infrastructure and Public 
Infrastructure Purposes (each as defined in A.R.S. § 48-701) to be financed by the Bonds (together, the “Public Infrastructure”) 
and of the plan for financing such Public Infrastructure in accordance with the provisions of A.R.S. § 48-715.  Pursuant to A.R.S. 
§48-715, this Report includes (i) a description of the Public Infrastructure to be acquired, an estimate of cost, and estimated 
schedule for completion of the Public Infrastructure [Section Two]; (ii) maps showing the location of the District, in general, the 
location of the Public Infrastructure and the area to be benefited by the Public Infrastructure [Section Three]; and (iii) a plan for 
financing the Public Infrastructure [Section Four]. 
This Report has been prepared for the consideration of the Board of Directors of the District only.  It is not intended or anticipated 
that this Report will be relied upon by other persons, including, but not limited to, purchasers of the Bonds.  This Report does 
not attempt to address the quality of the Bonds as investments or the likelihood of repayment of the Bonds, if any are issued.  In 
preparing this Report, employees of Pulte Home Company, LLC (“Pulte”), the master developer of the property within the 
District, the underwriter, the municipal advisor, bond counsel, staff of the City of Buckeye, Arizona (the “City”) that provide 
services to the District, and other persons and experts have been consulted as deemed appropriate. 
GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT 
Formation of the District was approved by the City on April 19, 2005, on the request of all of the landowners within the District.  
The District consists of approximately 4,015 acres within the approximately 10,354 acre master-planned community called 
Festival Ranch (the “Project”).  The Project is located along the Sun Valley Parkway generally between 259th Avenue and the 
291st Avenue alignments.  Single-family residential units are planned for approximately 3,190 acres within the Project.  As of 
March 31, 2026, Pulte has closed 4,513 residential homes at Sun City Festival (age restricted) and 1,274 residential homes at 
Festival Foothills (non-age restricted), for a total of 5,787 residential homes. 
In addition to residential development, several community amenities have been constructed within the District, including a 24,000 
square foot recreation center, a 27-hole golf course along with a 15,000 square foot golf clubhouse, a 30,000 square foot 
recreation center, an 8,000 square foot arts and crafts building, a softball complex, a pet park, a pickleball complex and a 
community park.

PLAN OF FINANCE AND  
ESTIMATED DEBT SERVICE SCHEDULE

PLAN OF FINANCE 
Below is a financing plan that describes the process for financing a portion of the Public Infrastructure benefiting the 
property within the District.  This Plan of Finance is subject to modification to accommodate market conditions at the 
time of the actual sale of the Bonds and to the extent necessary to comply with federal and State law. 
(i) 
Formation and Authorization: 
In response to a petition from the owners of 100% of the property within the District, the City Council 
formed the District on April 19, 2005.  The District is authorized to issue not-to-exceed $175,000,000 
in principal amount of general obligation bonds pursuant to an election held on May 25, 2005 (the 
“Election”).  The remaining authorization from the Election prior to the issuance of the Bonds is 
$100,759,742.  The District has previously issued, in the aggregate original principal amounts, the 
following series of general obligation bonds: 
 
$     800,000  District General Obligation Bonds, Series 2006; 
 
1,535,000  District General Obligation Bonds, Series 2007; 
 
7,600,000  District General Obligation Bonds, Series 2009; 
 
5,400,000  District General Obligation Bonds, Series 2012; 
 
1,800,000  General Obligation Bonds, Series 2013; 
 
5,410,000  General Obligation Bonds, Series 2016; 
 
3,665,000  General Obligation Bonds, Series 2017; 
 
2,940,000  General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2017;  
 
3,335,000  General Obligation Bonds, Series 2018; 
 
5,715,000  General Obligation Bonds, Series 2019;  
 
3,885,000  General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2019; 
 
5,315,000  General Obligation Bonds, Series 2020;  
 
5,790,000  General Obligation Bonds, Series 2021;  
 
6,075,000  General Obligation Bonds, Series 2022;  
 
3,985,000  General Obligation Bonds, Series 2023;  
 
10,075,000  General Obligation Bonds, Series 2024; 
 
2,955,000 General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2024; and 
 
5,625,000 General Obligation Bonds, Series 2025. 
(ii) 
Proposed Debt Issuance: 
The estimated debt service schedule for the Bonds is included in this section.  It is anticipated that the 
Bonds will be issued in the second half of 2026.  The amount shown on the cover of this Report is a not 
to exceed amount and the actual aggregate principal amount of the Bonds issued may be lower.  It is 
currently estimated that the Bonds will have a final maturity of approximately 20 years and be structured 
such that, when combined with the debt service of the District’s outstanding general obligation bonds, 
it will result in approximately level aggregate annual debt service.  See also the Estimated Debt Service 
Schedule in this section for additional details of the District’s outstanding general obligation bonds debt 
service and estimated aggregate debt service.  The Bonds may be rated by a rating agency based on the 
potential purchase of a municipal bond insurance policy from a municipal bond insurance company 
and/or may seek a rating from a rating agency. 
As indicated in Estimated Debt Service Schedule herein, it is currently estimated that the Bonds will 
have a final maturity of approximately 20 years, with principal amortized such that when combined 
with the debt service on the previous issues referenced above, the result will be aggregate level debt 
service along with a targeted secondary tax rate of not to exceed $3.00 per $100 of net assessed limited 
property value (not including the tax of $0.30 per $100 of net assessed limited property value levied to 
pay a portion of operation and maintenance expenses of the District and of the public infrastructure 
financed by the District (the “Operation and Maintenance Tax”)).

To be paid by Pulte.  Additional costs including, but not limited to, related appraisal and engineering fees are 
anticipated to be paid outside of bond proceeds.  All costs of issuance are estimated. 
(iv) 
Disclosure of Taxes and Assessments. 
A.R.S. §§ 32-2181 et seq. requires the disclosure of all property taxes and assessments to be paid by a 
homeowner in the Arizona Department of Real Estate Subdivision Public Report (the “Public Report”).  Each 
homebuyer must be supplied a Public Report and, prior to signing a sales contract, the homebuyer must 
acknowledge by signature that they have received a copy of the Public Report.  In addition, Pulte will require 
the homebuyer to sign an additional form that highlights and discloses the additional assessment payments as 
a result of District financing. 
(v) 
Operation and Maintenance of the Public Infrastructure. 
All Public Infrastructure financed by the District will be dedicated to and accepted by the City.  The obligations 
pertaining to the operation and maintenance of the Public Infrastructure have been negotiated between the City, 
the District and Pulte and are set forth in the various development agreements among the parties.  The 
administrative costs of the District and those costs associated with the operation and maintenance of the Public 
Infrastructure that are not the obligation of the City will be provided by several sources of funds: the levy of a 
$0.30 per $100 of net assessed limited property valuation ad valorem tax in the District (the “O&M Tax”), 
Homeowner’s Association fees and contributions from Pulte, if any.

Pursuant to the Development, Financing Participation and Intergovernmental Agreement No. 1 for Festival 
Ranch Community Facilities District (Buckeye, Arizona), dated April 21, 2005, as amended by the First 
Amendment to Development, Financing Participation and Intergovernmental Agreement No. 1 for Festival 
Ranch Community Facilities District (Buckeye, Arizona), dated February 18, 2025 (collectively, the 
“Development Agreement”), the applicable Homeowner’s Association (“HOA”) is responsible for the 
operation and maintenance costs of landscaping for the roadways, trails, and open space within the District.  
Homeowners within Sun City Festival (age restricted) and Festival Foothills (non-age restricted) are required 
to participate in the HOA for each area.  Monthly fees for the Sun City Festival HOA are anticipated to be 
approximately $176 per home. Monthly fees for the Festival Foothills HOA are anticipated to be approximately 
$99 per home. 
Pursuant to a development agreement among the Project property owners and the City, Pulte is required to 
provide a warranty for all infrastructure comprised of streets, parkways and alleys and all appurtenances thereto 
at its expense for a period of two years from the date the City accepts the infrastructure.  Such warranty requires 
repair actions reasonably necessary to correct defects according to customary engineering industry standards 
for each item of the Public Infrastructure.

Also does not include the obligation of the Central Arizona Water Conservation District (“CAWCD”) to the United States 
Department of the Interior (the “Department of the Interior”), for repayment of certain capital costs for construction of the 
Central Arizona Project (“CAP”), a major reclamation project that has been substantially completed by the Department of 
the Interior.  The obligation is evidenced by a master contract between CAWCD and the Department of the Interior.  In 
April 2003, the United States and CAWCD agreed to settle litigation over the amount of the construction cost repayment 
obligation, the amount of the respective obligations for payment of the operation, maintenance and replacement costs and 
the application of certain revenues and credits against such obligations and costs.  Under the agreement, CAWCD’s 
obligation for substantially all of the CAP features that have been constructed so far will be set at $1.646 billion, which 
amount assumes (but does not mandate) that the United States will acquire a total of 667,724 acre feet of CAP water for 
federal purposes.  The United States will complete unfinished CAP construction work related to the water supply system 
and regulatory storage stages of CAP at no additional cost to CAWCD.  Of the $1.646 billion repayment obligation, 73% 
will be interest bearing and the remaining 27% will be non-interest bearing.  These percentages have been fixed for the 
entire 50-year repayment period, which commenced October 1, 1993.  CAWCD is a multi-county water conservation 
district having boundaries coterminous with the exterior boundaries of Arizona’s Maricopa, Pima and Pinal Counties.  It 
was formed for the express purpose of paying administrative costs and expenses of the CAP and to assist in the repayment 
to the United States of the CAP capital costs.  Repayment will be made from a combination of power revenues, subcontract 
revenues (i.e., agreements with municipal, industrial and agricultural water users for delivery of CAP water) and a tax 
levy against all taxable property within CAWCD’s boundaries.  As of the date of this Report, the tax levy is limited to 14 
cents per $100 of net limited assessed property value, of which 14 cents is being levied.  (See A.R.S. §§ 48-3715 and 48-
3715.02)  There can be no assurance that such levy limit will not be increased or removed at any time during the life of 
the contract. 
 
Does not include the obligation of the Maricopa County Flood Control District (the “County Flood Control District”) to 
contribute $70 to $80 million to the CAP. The County Flood Control District’s sole source of revenue to pay the 
contribution will be ad valorem taxes on real property and improvements. 
(b) 
The County’s tax rate includes the $0.1400 tax rate of CAWCD, the $0.1428 tax rate of the Maricopa County Flood 
Control District, the $0.0462 tax rate of the Maricopa County Free Library District and the $0.0076 tax rate of the Maricopa 
County Fire District contribution.  It should be noted that the County Flood Control District does not levy taxes on personal 
property. 
(c) 
Does not include the Bonds or special assessment revenue bonds outstanding. 
(d) 
Totals may not add due to rounding.
