RECOMMENDATION Receive and File Report. BACKGROUND The Calistoga Public Facilities Corporation was created as a Section 501 (c) (4) non-profit public benefit corporation in September 1987 by the City of Calistoga as part of the initial financing of the new Police Station and parking lot. The costs of these improvements were funded, in part, through the issuance of a 1987 $2, 115,000 Certificate of Participation (COP). This type of non-profit corporation is required by the Federal IRS code in order to issue a public financing instrument called a Certificate of Participation (COP). A COP is a typical California public financing instrument for public facilities or equipment. It is essentially a type of lease purchase that requires a third party for the lease transaction. The Calistoga Public Facilities Corporation (CPFC) assigns all of the rights, obligations, and financial transactions to others, such as the City or Trustee for the COP. Even though the CPFC is a separate legal entity, it is considered a "component unit" of the City and is included in the audit of the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. Page 3 of 5 In November 2007, the City issued a municipal lease for $4,649,000 to provide funding for several community projects. The lease was secured by the public works facility and fire station and provided funds to complete the projects. The lease was issued for 20 years at 4.95% annual interest. The funds were invested to earn an estimated $170,000 over the two- year period, which served to offset a portion of the interest costs. In addition, the lease incorporated the ability to pay off the financing in a shorter period than usual. This lease was reset on May 1, 2016. On April 5, 2016, through resolution 2016-029, the City Council approved a rate reset on the City's existing 2007 Capital Improvement Project Lease. A rate reset with the original lender; Westamerica Bank minimized the overall costs of the lease. The outstanding par amount that was refunded was $3,870,414. The City's debt service is approximately $374,000 and fiscal year savings approximately $52,400 per year. The lease was issued for 12 years at 2.44% interest rate and payments to be made monthly commencing July 1, 2016. Current outstanding balance on June 30, 2022, is $1,976,947. In June 2011, the City issued a previously authorized USDA loan of $3,750,000 to finance construction of the Mt Washington Water Tank project. This financing, along with funds previously authorized through Measure A, will fund the remainder of the project. The USDA loan was issued for 40 years at 2.5% annual interest. Debt service payments will be made from the Water Utility and were anticipated during the recently updated rates. The current outstanding balance on June 30, 2022, is $2,581,852. On May 8, 2018, the City issued $8,920,000 2018 Water and Wastewater Revenue Certificates of Participation ("2018 Refunding COPs"). The 2018 bond refinanced the 2005D Water, 2008 COPS Water, 2001 B Wastewater and 2005 COPs Wastewater. In total, the City refinanced approximately $8.9 million of outstanding debt for interest rate savings. The current outstanding balance on June 30, 2022, for Water is $3,220,000 and for Wastewater $3,890,000. 2021/22 Activity All debt service payments have been made on a timely basis for the 2007, 2011, and 2018 financing. Future Financings There are no anticipated future financings at this time. FINANCIAL IMPACT None ATTACHMENT 1.
