Background:
If approved, this ordinance authorizes the issuance of General Obligation Refunding Bonds. Principal will not be extended beyond its original maturity date. The final maturity will be in February of 2031, for a term of 9 years. The purpose of the refunding is to reduce annual payments for savings. There is one issue that will be refunded representing $28,815,000 of par. Gross savings are expected to exceed $4,370,000. Net Present Value Savings are expected to exceed $3,960,000. The Net Present Value Savings as a percentage of the refunded bonds is expected to exceed 13.75%. Annual savings will be realized in each year that principal is refunded based on the debt outstanding from the original debt schedule on a uniform basis. A cash contribution of debt service funds in the approximate amount of $400,000 will be made at closing. The cash contribution is made so the current years’ debt service will not be reduced but remain as budgeted. Future fiscal years debt service will be reduced because of the refunding. See schedule of debt to be refunded below.
