a maximum of $31,000,000 in Electric System Revenue Refunding and Improvement Bonds.
This issuance will be completed as a negotiated sale that will provide $7,500,000 in new
money for capital projects and $23,500,000 being issued to refund debt incurred in 2005.
The refunding of the 2005 debt should result in a savings of $425,126 or 2.07% of the
refunded principal. Interim City Manager Sorah noted that this Resolution had been
previously reviewed at the July Council V/ork Session and that the 2013 refunding would not
extend the maturity of the 2005 bonds. Councilman Chad Keen asked Mike Browder, BTES
CEO, if this would take place immediately. Mr. Browder indicated that the process would be
beginning soon. Councilman Keen moved to approve the Resolution, and Vice-Mayor
Powers seconded. The motion passed by unanimous roll call vote.
