He explained that a bond issue of $2,400,000 would allow reduction of the indebtedness, the $1,000,000 remaining available for capital improvements related to the Agency, the annual debt service on the issue to be funded by unused annual tax increment generated to the Agency. The Director explained that it is important that the issue be made in a timely manner prior to the enactment of a proposed federal tax law under which such bonds would no longer have a tax exempt status, and interest rates would increase considerably over the current, more favorable bond market. Risner moved, second by Clift, to authorize the Executive Director to engage the services of a financial consultant and bond counsel on a contingency fee basis to prepare the enabling resolution, offical statement and other documents needed for a tax allocation bond issue. Agency Member Risner added that she would request the Executive Director to consider more than one bond consultant before making the selection, and to investigate if another bond issue could be made in the future if additional tax increment is available.
