Resolution 18 -015; a Resolution for the 2018 Street Improvement Bond Reimbursement City Manager Casey reviewed the resolution for the 2018 Street Improvement Bond Reimbursement. Bonding regulations provide limited authority to reimburse pre- bonding project expenditures. The Reimbursement Resolution provides the City with the full authority to recover any project expenditures made prior to bonding. Staff recommends this resolution be passed to ensure its full rights to reimbursement. Motion by Councilmember Stille, seconded by Councilmember Jenson, to approve Resolution 18 -015; a Resolution approving the 2018 Street Improvement Bond Reimbursement. Motion Carried 5 -0. B. Resolution 18 -016; a Resolution Authorizing Retroactive Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) debt service transfer. City Manager Casey reviewed the resolution authorizing HSIP debt service transfer. HSIP Grant Proceeds were not expected to be received until 2018 and therefore no transfer of the funds was proposed in the annual transfers approved by the City Council at the December 12, 2017 Council Meeting. The HSIP grant proceeds were subsequently received on 12/29/17. To achieve the proper accounting and distribution of these proceeds for the year ending 12/31/17 staff is recommending a retroactive transfer. The $692,145.17 transfer represents the portion of HSIP grant proceeds considered a source in the 2016B HSIP bonding transaction. The funds came in earlier than expected. Motion by Councilmember Jenson, seconded by Councilmember Randle, to approve Resolution 18 -016; a Resolution Authorizing Retroactive Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) debt service transfer.
