BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:

The Board approved moving forward with financing for some major capital projects which many had been delayed for more than a decade. The financing for the projects will be via a bond issue which could take up to sixty days to bid, award, and finalize. While the bond issuance is being pursued, staff will proceed with the architecture and engineering for the projects which is necessary to complete their bids for construction.

Any expenditures that are made for the defined projects prior to the bond issuance, can be reimbursed from the bond proceeds if the Board adopts a resolution allowing for such action. Staff is recommending that the Board adopt a resolution to establish the Board's intent to reimburse certain expenditures in connection with the various capital projects as described within the resolution from the bond proceeds. This will prevent any further delay in getting these projects started.

The resolution was drafted by the Board's Bond Counsel and reviewed by the County Attorney's Office and the Board's Financial Advisor.
