RESOLUTION NO. 94-3
A RESOLUTION AMENDING RESOLUTION 92-11
RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING PROCEDURES
RELATING TO COMPLIANCE WITH REIMBURSEMENT BOND
REGULATIONS UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council (the "Council") of the city
of Elk River, Minnesota (the "City"), as follows:
1. Recitals.
(a) The Internal Revenue Service has issued Treasury
Regulations, Section 1.150-2 (as the same may be amended or
supplemented, the "Regulations"), dealing with "reimbursement
bond" proceeds, being proceeds of the City's bonds used to
reimburse the City for any project expenditure paid by the
City prior to the time of the issuance of those bonds.
e
(b) The Regulations generally require that the City make
a declaration of intent to reimburse itself for such prior
expenditures out of the proceeds of subsequently issued bonds,
that such declaration be made not later than 60 days after the
expenditure is actually paid, and that the bonding occur and
the written reimbursement allocation be made from the proceeds
of such bonds within 18 months after the later of (1) the date
of paYment of the expenditure or (2) the date the project is
placed in service (but in no event more than 3 years after
actual paYment).
(c) The City heretofore implemented procedures for
compliance with the predecessor versions of the Regulations
and desires to amend and supplement those procedures to ensure
compliance with the Regulations.
e
(d) The City's bond counsel has advised the City that
the Regulations do not apply, and hence the provisions of this
Resolution are intended to have no application, to paYments of
City project costs first made by the City out of the proceeds
of bonds issued prior to the date of such paYments.
2. Official Intent Declaration. The Regulations, in the
situations in which they apply, require the City to have declared
an official intent (the "DeClaration") to reimburse itself for
previously paid project expenditures out of the proceeds of
subsequently issued bonds. The Council hereby authorizes the City
Finance Directorto make the City's Declarations or to delegate from
time to time that responsibility to other appropriate City
employees. Each Declaration shall comply with the requirements of
the Regulations, including without limitation the following:
e
(a) Each Declaration shall be made not later than 60
days after paYment of the applicable project cost and shall
state that the City reasonably expects to reimburse itself for
the expenditure out of the proceeds of a bond issue or similar
borrowing. Each Declaration may be made substantially in the
form of the Exhibit A which is attached to and made a part of
this Resolution, or in any other format which may at the time
comply with the Regulations.
(b) Each Declaration shall (1) contain a reasonably
accurate description of the "project," as defined in the
Regulations (which may include the property or prog~am to be
financed, as applicable), to which the expenditure relates and
(2) state the maximum principal amount of bonding expected to
be issued for that project.
(c) Care shall be taken so that the City, or its
authorized representatives under this Resolution, not make
Declarations in cases where the City doesn't reasonably expect
to issue reimbursement bonds to finance the subject project
costs, and the City officials are hereby authorized to consult
with bond counsel to the City concerning the requirements of
the Regulations and their application in particular
circumstances.
e
(d) The Council shall be advised from time to time on
the desirability and timing of the issuance of reimbursement
bonds relating to project expenditures for which the city has
made Declarations.
3. Reimbursement Allocations. The designated City officials
shall also be responsible for making the "reimbursement alloca-
tions" described in the Regulations, being generally written
allocations that evidence the City's use of the applicable bond
proceeds to reimburse the original expenditures.
4. Effect. This Resolution shall amend and supplement all
prior resolutions and/or procedures adopted by the City for
compliance with the Regulations (or their predecessor versions),
and, henceforth, in the event of any inconsistency, the provisions
of this Resolution shall apply and govern.
Adopted this 3rd day of January
River city Council.
