portion of Eagle Boulevard must be constructed at a higher elevation and additional length than originally planned due to a private land
development project west of the City project. A driveway to the V.R. Eaton High School must be constructed for an additional length than originally
planned due to an agreement between the City and the School District. Additional soil material must be excavated and disposed of than originally
planned due to the material not being accounted for in the design.

is issued. Once debt associated with the project is sold, bond proceeds will reimburse the General Fund in accordance with the statement
