Background:
The City Council approved at its October 20, 2015 meeting the sale of $6,625,000 in General Obligation Bonds for the projects listed on Exhibit A. These bonds were originally anticipated to close in December 2015 and were referred to as Series 2015B. As a result of changing the sale date to December 1, the bonds will now close in January 2016 and be referred to as Series 2016B. There has been no change in the projects previously approved.
The proposed sale represents the second series of bonds to be issued pursuant to the election held August 26, 2014, at which the qualified electors of the City approved an aggregate amount of $59,935,000 in general obligation bonds for specified capital improvements. The previous series was in the amount of $11,705,000 and dated December 1, 2014. These bonds will have a term of twenty (20) years and the sale date for these bonds will be December 1, 2015.
Staff recommends that the Council approve Resolution Number 899 and authorize its execution.
