MEETING DATE: April 1, 2010
Council Agenda Item 6 a
AGENDA ITEM: Financial Advisor Reports
a. Issuance and Sale of 150,000 GO Certificates
SUBMITTED BY: Finance /Financial Advisor
BOARD /COMMISSION /COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: None
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: In 2006 the City issued an equipment certificate in the amount of $
250,000. The last payment on the bond will be in December 2010; therefore, issuing the debt at this time will
not increase the levy additionally than the already required levy.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Over the past years the City has used two equipment certificates to
purchase needed equipment. The use of equipment certificates provided for stabilization of the budget as it
relates to equipment purchases. Much of the equipment is extremely costly and it becomes difficult to
budget full funding of equipment without providing for spikes in the budget. Therefore, the Capital
Improvement Plan was developed at the same time equipment certificates became a financing mechanism.
Until 2008, the City had been able to set aside funds to make the necessary purchases. However, in 2008 and
2009 the City suspended capital items due to LGA losses.
The intent of the equipment certificates was to coordinate equipment purchases with the expiration of the
certificates so the levy for equipment purchases remains constant. In 2010, due to the economic conditions,
the amount of the equipment certificate is being reduced from the expiring amount, $ 250,000 to $ 150,000
including issuance costs. The Capital Improvement Plan is being revised to move needed equipment back
further. When the budget for 2011 is prepared, the CIP will reflect the changes.
Due to the size of the bond issue, Monte Eastvold solicited bids from the local financial institutions to see if
they would be interested. The bids must received by next Wednesday and the results will be presented to
the City Council for acceptance.
BUDGET /FISCAL IMPACT: Issuance of debt in the amount of $150,000 with an anticipated average
annual levy of $ 33,600.

signatures of its Mayor and Administrator - Clerk, the seal having been omitted as permitted by
law. In the event of disability or resignation or other absence of either such officer, the

8. Delivery: Application of Proceeds. The Certificates when so prepared and

purchase price and the Purchaser shall not be obliged to see to the proper application thereof.
9. Funds and Accounts. There is hereby established a special fund to be designated
the "General Obligation Equipment Certificates of Indebtedness, Series 2010A Fund" (the
"Fund ") to be administered and maintained by the Administrator -Clerk as a bookkeeping account
separate and apart from all other funds maintained in the official financial records of the City.
The Fund shall be maintained in the manner herein specified until all of the Certificates and the
interest thereon have been fully paid. There shall be maintained in the Fund the following
separate accounts:
(a) Capital Account. To the Capital Account there shall be credited the proceeds of
the sale of the Certificates, less capitalized interest. From the Capital Account there shall be paid
all costs and expenses of the acquisition of the Project including all costs incurred and to be
incurred of the kind authorized in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.65. The moneys in the
Capital Account shall be used for no other purpose except as otherwise provided by law;
provided that the proceeds of the Certificates may also be used to the extent necessary to pay
interest on the Certificates due prior to the anticipated date of commencement of the collection of
taxes herein levied.
(b) Debt Service Account. There are hereby irrevocably appropriated and pledged to,
and there shall be credited to, the Debt Service Account: (i) capitalized interest in the amount of
$ (together with interest earnings thereon and subject to such other adjustments
as are appropriate to provide sufficient funds to pay interest due on the Certificates on or before
December 1, 2010); (ii) collections of all taxes herein or hereafter levied for the payment of the
Certificates; (iii) all funds remaining in the Capital Account after the payment of all costs of the
Project; (iv) all investment earnings on funds held in the Debt Service Account; and (v) any and
all other moneys which are properly available and are appropriated by the governing body of the
City to the Debt Service Account. The Debt Service Account shall be used solely to pay the
principal and interest of the Certificates and any other general obligation certificates of the City
hereafter issued by the City and made payable from said account as provided by law.
No portion of the proceeds of the Certificates shall be used directly or indirectly to
acquire higher yielding investments or to replace funds which were used directly or indirectly to
acquire higher yielding investments, except (a) for a reasonable temporary period until such
proceeds are needed for the purpose for which the Certificates were issued and (b) in addition to
the above in an amount not greater than the lesser of five percent of the proceeds of the
2456272x1
6(a):8
Certificates or $100,000. To this effect, any proceeds of the Certificates and any sums from time
to time held in the Capital Account or Debt Service Account (or any other City account which
will be used to pay principal or interest to become due on the certificates payable therefrom) in
excess of amounts which under then applicable federal arbitrage regulations may be invested
without regard to yield shall not be invested at a yield in excess of the applicable yield
restrictions imposed by said arbitrage regulations on such investments after taking into account
any applicable "temporary periods" or "minor portion" made available under the federal arbitrage
regulations. Money in the Fund shall not be invested in obligations or deposits issued by,
guaranteed by or insured by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof if and to
the extent that such investment would cause the Certificates to be "federally guaranteed" within
the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code ").
10. Tax Levy; Coverage Test. To provide moneys for payment of the principal and
interest on the Certificates there is hereby levied upon all of the taxable property in the City a
direct annual ad valorem tax which shall be spread upon the tax rolls and collected with and as
part of other general property taxes in the City for the years and in the amounts as follows:
Years of Tax Lew Years of Tax Collection Amount
2010 -2014 2011-2015 See Attached Tax Levy Schedule
The tax levies are such that if collected in full they will produce at least five percent in excess of
the amount needed to meet when due the principal and interest payments on the Certificates.
The tax levies shall be irrepealable so long as any of the Certificates are outstanding and unpaid,
provided that the City reserves the right and power to reduce the levies in the manner and to the
extent permitted by Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61, Subdivision 3.
11. General Obligation Pledge. For the prompt and full payment of the principal and
interest on the Certificates, as the same respectively become due, the full faith, credit and taxing
powers of the City shall be and are hereby irrevocably pledged. If the balance in the Debt
Service Account is ever insufficient to pay all principal and interest then due on the Certificates
and any other certificates payable therefrom, the deficiency shall be promptly paid out of any
other funds of the City which are available for such purpose, and such other funds may be
reimbursed with or without interest from the Debt Service Account when a sufficient balance is
available therein.
12. Defeasance. When all Certificates have been discharged as provided in this
paragraph, all pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this resolution to the registered
holders of the Certificates shall, to the extent permitted by law, cease. The City may discharge
its obligations with respect to any Certificates which are due on any date by irrevocably
depositing with the Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in
full; or if any Certificate should not be paid when due, it may nevertheless be discharged by
depositing with the Registrar a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full with interest
accrued to the date of such deposit. The City may also at any time discharge its obligations with
respect to any Certificates, subject to the provisions of law now or hereafter authorizing and
regulating such action, by depositing irrevocably in escrow, with a suitable banking institution
qualified by law as an escrow agent for this purpose, cash or securities described in Minnesota
2486272v1
6(a):9
Statutes, Section 475.67, Subdivision 8, bearing interest payable at such times and at such rates
and maturing on such dates as shall be required, without regard to sale and/or reinvestment, to
pay all amounts to become due thereon to maturity or, if notice of redemption as herein required
has been duly provided for, to such earlier redemption date.
13. Certificate of Registration. The Administrator -Clerk is hereby directed to file a
certified copy of this resolution with the County Auditor of Stearns County, Minnesota, together
with such other information as the County Auditor shall require, and to obtain from the County
Auditor a certificate that the Certificates have been entered in the County Auditor's Register and
that the tax levy required by law has been made.
14. Records and Certificates. The officers of the City are hereby authorized and
directed to prepare and furnish to the Purchaser, and to the attorneys approving the legality of the
issuance of the Certificates, certified copies of all proceedings and records of the City relating to
the Certificates and to the financial condition and affairs of the City, and such other affidavits,
certificates and information as are required to show the facts relating to the legality and
marketability of the Certificates as the same appear from the books and records under their
custody and control or as otherwise known to them, and all such certified copies, certificates and
affidavits, including any heretofore furnished, shall be deemed representations of the City as to
the facts recited therein.
15. Compliance With Reimbursement Bond Regulations. The provisions of this
paragraph are intended to establish and provide for the City's compliance with United States
Treasury Regulations Section 1.150 -2 (the "Reimbursement Regulations ") applicable to the
"reimbursement proceeds" of the Certificates, being those portions thereof which will be used by
the City to reimburse itself for any expenditure which the City paid or will have paid prior to the
closing date (a "Reimbursement Expenditure").
The City hereby certifies and/or covenants as follows:
(a) Not later than sixty days after the date of payment of a Reimbursement
Expenditure, the City (or person designated to do so on behalf of the City) has made or will have
made a written declaration of the City's official intent (a "Declaration ") which effectively (i)
states the City's reasonable expectation to reimburse itself for the payment of the Reimbursement
Expenditure out of the proceeds of a subsequent borrowing; (ii) gives a general and functional
description of the property, project or program to which the Declaration relates and for which the
Reimbursement Expenditure is paid, or identifies a specific fund or account of the City and the
general functional purpose thereof from which the Reimbursement Expenditure was to be paid
(collectively the "Project "); and (iii) states the maximum principal amount of debt expected to be
issued by the City for the purpose of financing the Project; provided, however, that no such
Declaration shall necessarily have been made with respect to: (i) "preliminary expenditures" for
the Project, defined in the Reimbursement Regulations to include engineering or architectural,
surveying and soil testing expenses and similar prefatory costs, which in the aggregate do not
exceed twenty percent of the "issue price" of the Certificates, and (ii) a de minimis amount of
Reimbursement Expenditures not in excess of the lesser of $100,000 or five percent of the
proceeds of the Certificates.
2486292v l 6(a):10
(b) Each Reimbursement Expenditure is a capital expenditure or a cost of issuance of
the Certificates or any of the other types of expenditures described in Section l .150- 2(d)(3) of
the Reimbursement Regulations.
(c) The "reimbursement allocation" described in the Reimbursement Regulations for
each Reimbursement Expenditure shall and will be made forthwith following (but not prior to)
the issuance of the Certificates and in all events within the period ending on the date which is the
later of three years after payment of the Reimbursement Expenditure or one year after the date on
which the Project to which the Reimbursement Expenditure relates is first placed in service.
(d) Each such reimbursement allocation will be made in a writing that evidences the
City's use of Certificate proceeds to reimburse the Reimbursement Expenditure and, if made
within thirty days after the Certificates are issued, shall be treated as made on the day the
Certificates are issued.
Provided, however, that the City may take action contrary to any of the foregoing
covenants in this paragraph upon receipt of an opinion of its Bond Counsel for the Certificates
stating in effect that such action will not impair the tax - exempt status of the Certificates.
16. Negative Covenant as to Use of Proceeds and Project. The City hereby covenants
not to use the proceeds of the Certificates or to use the Project, or to cause or permit them to be
used, or to enter into any deferred payment arrangements for the cost of the Project, in such a
manner as to cause the Certificates to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Sections
103 and 141 through 150 of the Code.
17. Tax - Exempt Status of the Certificates; Rebate. The City shall comply with
requirements necessary under the Code to establish and maintain the exclusion from gross
income under Section 103 of the Code of the interest on the Certificates, including without
limitation (a) requirements relating to temporary periods for investments, (b) limitations on
amounts invested at a yield greater than the yield on the Certificates, and (c) the rebate of excess
investment earnings to the United States, if the Certificates (together with other obligations
reasonably expected to be issued and outstanding at one time in this calendar year) exceed the
small issuer exception amount of $5,000,000.
For purposes of qualifying for the exception to the federal arbitrage rebate requirements
for governmental units issuing $5,000,000 or less of bonds, the City hereby finds, determines and
declares that (a) the Certificates are issued by a governmental unit with general taxing powers,
(b) no Certificate is a private activity bond, (c) ninety five percent or more of the net proceeds of
the Certificates are to be used for local governmental activities of the City (or of a governmental
unit the jurisdiction of which is entirely within the jurisdiction of the City), and (d) the aggregate
face amount of all tax exempt bonds (other than private activity bonds) issued by the City (and
all subordinate entities thereof, and all entities treated as one issuer with the City) during the
calendar year in which the Certificates are issued and outstanding at one time is not reasonably
expected to exceed $5,000,000, all within the meaning of Section 148(f)(4)(D) of the Code.
24862720 6(a):11
18. Designation of Qualified Tax - Exempt Obligations. In order to qualify the
Certificates as "qualified tax - exempt obligations" within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the
Code, the City hereby makes the following factual statements and representations:
(a) the Certificates are issued after August 7, 1986;
Code; (b) the Certificates are not "private activity bonds" as defined in Section 141 of the
(c) the City hereby designates the Certificates as "qualified tax - exempt obligations"
for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code;

be issued by the City (and all entities treated as one issuer with the City, and all subordinate
entities whose obligations are treated as issued by the City) during this calendar year 2010 will
not exceed $30,000,000; and
(e) not more than $30,000,000 of obligations issued by the City during this calendar
year 2010 have been designated for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code.
The City shall use its best efforts to comply with any federal procedural requirements which may
apply in order to effectuate the designation made by this paragraph.
19. Severability. If any section, paragraph or provision of this resolution shall be held
to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the invalidity or unenforceability of such section,
paragraph or provision shall not affect any of the remaining provisions of this resolution.
