The City Council tentatively proposes to authorize the issuance of said revenue bonds at its regular meeting place in the City Hall at a regular meeting to commence at 10:00 o'clock a.m. on the 18th day of August, 1992. The maximum amount of revenue bond indebtedness that may be authorized for such purpose is $20,000,000.

DISCUSSION: On February 4, 1992, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 1802 approving submission of an application to the Texas Water Development Board State Revolving Loan Fund for $19,900,000.00. By receiving capital project financing through the Revolving Loan Fund, the City is able to finance applicable projects at interest rates significantly lower than those which would be obtained by the issuance of traditional water and sewer revenue bonds. The TWBD approved the City's application on March 12. Proceeds from these bonds will be used to finance the third expansion at the Village Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant and will include two primary clarifiers, sludge pump station, influent metering, storm water pumps, and primary effluent station. For funds to be available to meet the desired construction schedule, it is necessary to issue bonds as soon as possible. The next step required for bond issuance is the publishing of required notices which must be printed once a week for two consecutive weeks prior to issuance of the bonds. It is anticipated the bonds will be sold on August 18. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION: The Director of Fiscal Services certifies that funds required to pay the costs of issuance will be available from the proceeds of this issue.
