Bartell, City CI • • CONSENT AGENDA ITEM 1F STAFF ORIGINATOR Al Rolek MEETING DATE 12/14/09 TOPIC Resolution No. 09 -109 Authorizing the Transfer of Funds from the Area and Unit Fund to the 2005B G.O. Improvement Bond Debt Service Fund VOTE REQUIRED Simple Majority BACKGROUND The 1998A Debt Service Fund was established to service the debt on the 1997 and 1998 improvement projects. The 1998A issue was subsequently refunded by the 2005B issue. The original debt was to be retired using special assessments to benefited properties and resources of the Area and Unit Fund. In some instances, special assessments may be deferred until the affected property develops, leaving a trunk fund or another fund to temporarily fund the debt service. Because of this, the 2005B fund is currently in a deficit situation. Resolution No. 09- 109 would transfer the necessary funds from the Area and Unit Fund to temporarily fund the debt service and eliminate this deficit. The amount of the transfer is $447,400.00. It is staff's recommendation that the City Council approve Resolution No. 09 -109 authorizing this transfer. OPTIONS 1. Adopt Resolution No. 09 -109. 2. Refer back to Staff for further consideration. 3. Deny Resolution No. 09 -109. RECOMMENDATION Option 1
