Public Hearing on the Issuance of Therapy Facilities Revenue Bonds—Minnesota Autism
Center Proiect
A public hearing was held on June 5, 2017 on the proposal to issue these bonds; however, the
hearing was invalid due to lack of public notice. Finance Director Ron Otkin explained that at
the June 19, 2017, City Council meeting, the Council adopted a resolution calling for a public
hearing on a proposal to Issue Therapy Facilities Revenue Bonds in an amount of no more than
$5.1 million, on behalf of the Autism Opportunities Foundation, a Minnesota nonprofit
corporation doing business as the Minnesota Autism Center (the `Borrower"). The bond
proceeds would 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 had agreed to pay the City of Hugo an issuer's administrative fee of 1/4 of 1% of the
principal amount of the bonds. Briggs and Morgan, the City's bond counsel, had reviewed this
request and found it to be a proper use of the City's bonding authority. The City would only be
serving as the bond issuer and will have no obligations for repaying investors.
Weidt opened the public hearing. There were no comments, and Weidt closed the public hearing.
