Authorization REQUEST: City Manager requesting the Commission to approve Bond Issue Refunding and/or Restructuring to provide for the refunding of existing 1989 bond issues and/or the restructuring of 1989 into a 1999 bond issue for certain City improvements. PURPOSE: The purpose of this agenda item is to take advantage of current interest rates to refund the existing 1989 bond issues and to issue new bonds for capital improvements. CONSIDERATIONS: In 1989 the City issued $9,000,000 in non-advalorem refunding and new revenue bonds for capital improvements. Approximately $2,875,000 of these bonds remain outstanding and can be refinanced at today's interest rates with a present value cash flow savings of$655,200.87 as follows: Reserve Fund Annual Payment Savings Total Net Bond Value Saving $420,000.00 $235,200.87 $655,200.87 The new'present value saving from annual payments exclusive of the reserve fund ($235,200,87) equals approximate 8 Y2% of the refunded principal an amount sufficient to warrant the refunding of the 1989 issue. Additionally, current low interest rates are ideal for this issuance of additional debt for needed capital improvements. Combining the savings of refunding of the 1989 bonds with a new issue January 11, 1999 AGENDA ITEM Page 2 provides the City with ideal efficiency for structuring a new bond issue that would provide the City with funds to construct needed improvements. The options are shown in Attachments "A" schedule "B" and "C". Schedule "B" demonstrates payments for $3 million dollars in proceeds. Schedule "C" demonstrates payments for $5 million dollar in proceeds. Both schedules would maintain payments at below current payments for two years and a gradual increase in payments over the life of the bonds. Table 1 below demonstrates the recommended uses ofthe proceeds: Uses $3 Million Proceeds Option $5 Million Proceeds Option 434 Beautification Project Town Center Trail Park Development Park Improvements Urban Rehabilitation Fund* Town Center Planning & Design Reimbursement Traffic Calming 600,000 125,000 2,275,000 625,000 700,000 2,275,000 800,000 300,000 300.000 $5,000,000 $3,000,000 *The Urban Rehabilitation Fund would initially be used to loan start-up funds for the conversion of the quadraplex rental units in the rehab area of Winter Springs to Home Ownership Units. The loans will be paid back to the fund as the units are sold. At this time the funds can be used for any other improvement projects the City would deem appropriate such as removal of the public works facility from the rehab area, additional traffic calming and Town Center improvements. ISSUE 1 - What financing alternative does the Commission desire? a) Refund the existing 1989 bond issue b) 3 million-dollar proceeds from 1999 bond issue c) 5 million-dollar proceeds from 1999 bond issue ISSUE 2 - When does the Commission desire to refund or issue new debt? a) Refunding needs to be done this month in order to maximize the savings provided by lower interest rates. The bonds are callable in April. It will take approximately 60 days to complete the transaction and take advantage of the lower rate of interest at the earliest time. b) Issuance of a 1999 bond issue needs to be done immediately to take advantage of low interest rates. If the Commission decides to combine the 1999 bond issue with the refunding as recommended, the transaction would need to be authorized now to maximize interest savings. January 11, 1999 AGENDA ITEM Page 3 ISSUE 3 - When should construction be authorized? Currently construction costs are at a premium due to the unprecedented level of construction in the area. Delaying construction for six to twelve months could result in a significant reduction in cost. The ideal scenario could be to issue bonds now taking maximum advantage of low interest rates, completing construction documents, and delaying construction until the fall or first of next year when the construction industry "cools off' and construction costs goes down as predicted. The down side to this scenario is that construction costs may not go down as predicted and the benefit of the project improvements would have been delayed. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Commission decide the following: 1. Financing a) Refund 1989 issue b) 3 million bond proceeds 1999 bond issue c) 5 million bond proceeds 1999 bond issue 2. Timing of Financing a) Now b) At some future date 3. Timing of Construction a) As quickly as possible b) Delay to fall or January 2000 It is recommended that the Commission authorize a series 1999 non-advalorem bond issue Utilizing the refunding of the 1989 bond issue and new debt to yield $5 million in construction Proceeds due to the advantages of current low interest rates. Management believes the relative benefits of the timing of construction is a decision the Commission is better positioned to determine.

'!INTER SPRINGS Ci~Y Managef Mr. Ron McLemore City Manager City of Winter Springs 1126 East State Road 434 Winter Springs, Florida 32708 RE: Proposed Refunding and or New Money for Capital Improvements/Emergency Medical Care Vehicle Dear Mr. McLemore: You have suggested we present the various options the City has regarding combining a new money issue with a current refunding ofthe 1989 Improvement Issue. The options that will be presented are of comparisons with existing cost and how much each option will cost. I have included the three (3) options you requested as attachments A, B and C to this letter. . Option A - Compares Existing Debt with a Refunding. . Option B - Provides $3 Million in New Money, Plus the Refunding. . Option C - Provides $5 Million in New Money, Plus the Refunding. Please note all scenarios include the $420,000 Debt Service Reserve surplus which has been used as part of the refunding. The savings, excluding the reserve, has a net present value benefit of $235,000 or approximately 8 1/2% of the refunded principal. Most local governments use a 5% net present value (PY) benefit or greater as the benchmark PY rate to determine if the savings are worth refunding or not. It is my recommendation that should the City wish to proceed with the refunding and is also contemplating new money, then the issues should be combined at the same time for the purposes of reducing overall cost. I will review these options at the Commission meeting on December 14th. INVESTMENT BANKERS SINCE 1946 651 Bryn Mawr Strut. Orlando, Florida 32804-4427' 407-426-9611 .
