Of this amount, $1.76 million is for transfers, appropriations, and expenditure authority to the GSD, $4.44 million is for other City funds, and $1.7 million for staff cost reimbursements. All transfers and appropriations are based on existing funds, reimbursements or revenues.

Additionally, the CAO reports in it's 2016-17 Fourth Construction Projects Report Addendum dated June 1, 2017 (attached to the Council file) that there is no additional General Fund impact from the approval of Recommendation No. 12 above. This is an administrative action and there is no associated General Fund impact for operations and maintenance. There are sufficient funds within the Citywide Nuisance Abatement Program, Capital Improvement Expenditure Program for this work.

Debt Impact Statement:  The CAO reports that the issuance of MICLA Bonds is a General Fund obligation. The reauthorization recommended herein for MICLA financing includes previously approved capital projects in the table below. These reauthorizations would cause the City to borrow approximately $37.98 million at a 5.5 percent interest rate. The total estimated debt service is $63.56 million, which includes the borrowing amount and interest of $25.58 million. During the life of the bonds, the estimated average annual debt service would be $3.18 million over 20 years.

Actual interest rates may differ as rates are dependent on market conditions at the time of issuance. The CAO reports that it cannot fully predict what interest rates will be in the future.

In accordance with the City’s Debt Management Policy, the City has an established debt ceiling to guide in evaluating the affordability for future debt. The debt ceiling for non-voted direct debt as a percentage of General Revenues is 6.0 percent. The City is currently at 3.96 percent. The issuance of the debt from this re-authorization will not impact the City’s debt capacity for non-voter approved debt as the issuance of debt for routine capital improvements is already included in the debt ratio.

Community Impact Statement:  None submitted.
