MEMORANDUM
TO: Economic Development Authority
FROM: Tim Simon, Finance Director
DATE: October 2, 2007
SUBJECT: Upcoming bond pre-sale report review
Action Requested
Call special Economic Development Authority meeting for October 15, 2007 at 6:30 p.m. to
award the sale of the bonds.
Background/Discussion
Bonds are being issued to finance the 55,000 s.f. recreational facility to be leased to the
YMCA. The Economic Development Authority (EDA) will be issuing the bonds due to the
legal authority necessary to utilize bond proceeds for a recreational facility leased to a non-
profit. If the EDA issues over $10,000,000 in a calendar year, the bonds will not be bank
qualified which means they carry a higher interest rate and will be taxable bonds. The spread
in today's market between bank qualified and non-bank qualified bonds is between .2% and
.25%. As a result, the EDA will be issuing $10,000,000 in calendar year 2007 and $2,000,000
in calendar year 2008, which will result in an estimated debt service savings of approximately
$280,000 in present value dollars.
Next Steps
October 15, 2007 -Public Hearing and the City Council and EDA will issue the bonds
Financial Impact
$10,000,000 will be issued in 2007 and $2,000,000 will be issued early in 2008 for a total
bond issue of $12,000,000.

ELK RIVER ECONOMIG DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY AND
CITY OF ELK RIVER, MINNESOTA
PRE-SALE REPORT
Oc7oBER, 2007
Proposed Issue: $10,000,000 G.O. Bonds, Series 2007 to be issued by the Economic
Development Authority (EDA) and secured by the general obligation of the
taxpayers of the City of Elk River. The EDA is the issuer because of the
legal authority necessary to utilize bond proceeds for a recreational facility
leased to anon-profit.
Purpose: The Bonds will finance a 55,000 s.f. recreational facility to be leased to the
YMCA of Metropolitan Minneapolis pursuant to an election held on
September 12, 2006. The ballot language was:
"Shall the City of Elk River, Minnesota, be authorized to pledge its full faith,
credit and resources to bonds to be issued by the Economic Development
Authority of the City of Elk River in an amount not to exceed $12,000,000 to
defray the expense of the acquisition and betterment of a recreational facility
owned by the Authority and leased to the YMCA? The maximum amount of
increased levy as a percentage of market value is .052%. The maximum amount
that would be raised by the new referendum tax rate in first year if it were to be
levied is $902,982. NOTICE: BY VOTING "YES" ON THIS BALLOT
QUESTION, YOU ARE VOTING FOR A PROPERTY TAX INCREASE. The
Economic Development Authority of the City of Elk River anticipates entering
into a lease with The Young Men's Christian Association of Metropolitan
Minneapolis (the "YMCA") pursuant to which the YMCA will pay one-third of
the debt service of the bonds to be issued by the Economic Development Authority
of the City of Elk River."
:Description: The Bonds are being issued pursuant to Minnesota Statues, Chapter 469 and
475. The Bonds are anticipated to be rated by Moody's at an "A1" level.
Bank Qualification: Because the federal government restricts banks from investing in "non-bank
qualified bonds", we are recommending that the first bond issue for the
referendum be limited to $10,000,000. The reduction in the size of the
issue should result in .2% to .25% savings in the interest rate which equates
to a reduction in debt service costs of approximately $280,000 in present
value dollars. In early 2008, the EDA can issue the final $2,000,000.
TermlCall Feature: The Bonds are being issued fora 25-year period. Principal on the Bonds
will be due on February 1 in the years 2016 through 2033. Bonds maturing
February 1, 2018, and thereafter will be subject to prepayment at the
discretion of the City on February 1, 2017. The remaining $2,000,000 of
debt will be amortized from February 1, 2009 to 2015, thereby allowing the
City and EDA to lock in the lower, longer term rates now.
Funding Sources: The Bonds are general obligations of the EDA/City and as such are secured
by a pledge of the EDA/City's full faith, credit and taxing powers, with or
without payments from the YMCA. It is the intent of the EDA to levy
property taxes to support the two-thirds of the debt service beginning with
taxes payable in 2008 for the interest payment due August 1, 2008. The
bond resolution will show the EDA levying 100% of the debt service,
which can be written down an annual basis. Currently, the estimated
interest rates would result in an annual debt service that would be $20,000
less than shown in the ballot question. Bond proceeds of $11,790,000 are
higher than expected as well because the capitalized interest for the Bonds
was able to be eliminated.
Discussion :Issues: The Bonds will be deemed 501(c)(3) bonds due to the involvement of a
non-profit (the YMCA) in payment of the debt. The non-profit designation
requires a public hearing, limits costs of issuance to 2% paid from bond
proceeds, and changes restrictions on earning interest on the Bonds
(arbitrage).
Arbitrage: With increasing short-term investment rates, IRS rules regarding the
amount of interest that the City may earn on bond proceeds is more of a
concern. If the City spends the bond proceeds within 24 months according
to specific measurements each six months, interest earned on the proceeds
above the bond interest rate does not need to be rebated or repaid interest
(the excess interest earnings are known as arbitrage). The City will also
need to keep its debt service funds within IRS parameters to avoid penalties
on carrying too high of a balance during the life of the issue.
