The purpose of the safe was to refund the 1998 and 2002 outstanding bonds due to very favorable interest rates and to issue new debt to help fund several large capital projects included in the capital budget. Tax exempt bonds were issued to refund the 1998 and 2002 bonds as well as to raise new money. Refunding of the District's $24 million of outstanding debt will produce a $1.3 million net present value savings. The interest rates on the tax exempt bonds range from 0.4% to 3.79 %. The District also issued $19 million in taxable Build America Bonds which have a direct 35% subsidy from the Federal Government, with yields ranging from 3.45% to 3.78% net of the subsidy. These funds will also be used to fund capital projects. Debt Service payments will be $5.4 million each year for the first five years, dropping to $3.6 million for the next nine years, and $2.4 million for the remaining six years. There being no further business to come before the Board, Chair Lucey adjourned the annual meeting of the Authority at 2:45 p.m. and turned the meeting back to President McGill. Elaine R.
