STATEMENT OF BONDED INDEBTEDNESS AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS
             Charter Section 312(g) requires that the budget provide all essential facts regarding the bonded and other indebtedness of the
             City government. Under the California Constitution, the City may issue general obligation bonds subject to the approval of two-
             thirds of the voters voting on the bond proposition. An ad valorem tax on real property is levied without limitation as to rate and
             amount to pay principal and interest on general obligation bonds. The City may also levy special taxes on real property based
             on the size of improvements (rather than assessed valuation) with two-thirds voter approval. These taxes may secure bonded
             obligation. The City may issue revenue bonds under the State 1941 Act with approval by 50 percent plus one of the voters, and
             under the City Charter, the City may establish its own procedures for issuing revenue bonds. Under State law, the City may also
             enter into long-term lease obligations without obtaining voter approval. Lease revenue bonds and certificates of participation
             may be issued, which are secured by such lease-purchase agreements. Under various sections of State law, the City may
             establish assessment or Mello-Roos districts and issue bonds for infrastructure improvements. The bonds are secured solely by
             the properties in the district. The table below summarizes the outstanding general obligation bonded indebtedness of the City,
             judgment obligation bonds, lease revenue bonds, certificates of participation, revenue bonds and special assessment and
             Mello-Roos districts.  .
