Approve Resolution Approving First Amendment to 2015 Educational Facility Revenue
Bond
The City of Hugo was asked to approve an amendment to the Financing Agreement related to the
conduit bonds that were issued in 2015 on behalf of the Minnesota Autism Center. The
amendment clarified and set the level of premium the Minnesota Autism Center shall pay to
Wells Fargo Bank in the event of early redemption of any or all of the bonds. Although the
amendment was agreed to between the two parties, any amendment to the Financing Agreement
needed to be approved by the City Council since the City of Hugo issued the bonds. Adoption of
the Consent Agenda approved RESOLUTION 2017-18 PROVIDING FOR THE FIRST
AMENDMENT TO EDUCATIONAL FACILITY REVENUE BOND (MINNESOTA AUTISM
CENTER PROJECT), SERIES 2015 AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF
DOCUMENTS RELATED THERETO.
Approve Resolution Calling for a Public Hearing on the Issuance of Revenue Bonds -
Minnesota Autism Center Proiect
At its June 5, 2017 meeting, the Council held a public hearing on this issue; however the hearing
is invalid because the City's legal newspaper failed to publish the required notice for the public
hearing. The City of Hugo is being asked to consider issuing Tax-Exempt Revenue Bonds, in an
amount of no more than $5.1 million, on behalf of the Autism Opportunities Foundation (the
"Borrower"), a Minnesota nonprofit corporation doing business as the Minnesota Autism Center.
The bond proceeds will be used to finance the acquisition, construction, and equipping of an
intensive therapy center for children and adults ages 10 to 21 diagnosed with autism spectrum
disorder ("ASD"). The project will be located at 2010 Silver Bell Road in Eagan, Minnesota.
The Borrower has agreed to pay the City of Hugo an issuer's administrative fee of 1/4 of 1% of
the principal amount of the bonds in consideration for the City of Hugo acting as issuer. A
public hearing on the proposal has been scheduled for July 5, 2017. Briggs and Morgan, the
City's bond counsel, has reviewed this request and finds it to be a proper use of the City's
bonding authority. Thus, the Finance Department recommended that the City Council approve a
Resolution Calling for a Public Hearing on the Issuance of Revenue Bonds and Authorizing the
Publication of a Notice of the Hearing. Adoption of the Consent Agenda approved the
RESOLUTION 2017-19 CALLING FOR A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE ISSUANCE OF
REVENUE BONDS AND AUTHORIZING THE PUBLICATION OF A NOTICE OF THE
HEARING (MINNESOTA AUTISM CENTER PROJECT).
Approve Promotions of Rick Gregoire, Tom Kaspszak, and Ron Gray to Engineer
Positions on the Hugo Fire Department
Fire Chief Kevin Colvard recommended Council approve the promotions of three Hugo
Firefighters. Adoption of the Consent Agenda approved the appointment of Rick Gregoire, Tom
Kaspszak, and Ron Gray to engineer positions on the Hugo Fire Department effective June 1,
2017.
