Item No. DI -69
Date: 12-11-00
Item/Subject ORDER Authorizing the issuance of up to$4,500,000 aggregate principal
amount of general obligation bonds and/or notes in amidpation thereof and a tax levy
therefor
Responsible Department Finance
Commentary: The attached order auMorizes the Issuance of $4.5 million In bonds to fund the addition
to Bangor High School, about which you recently met with Superintendent IMn. Thus, assuming
approval of this order, our total authorization for this bond Issue will be $11.5 million. The ascend plan of
financing this project calls for us to Issue Wnd Qd dlution Abbas (BAN'S) totaling approximately $3.5-
$4.0 million as part of our upcoming bond issue. The M's will mature in February 2002, at which time
they will be "tuken out" with a pEnnanem; 20 -year bond issue.
Please note that this order departs from the norm a bit in that it will not have two readings, as do
virtually all of our other bond orders. This is to accommodate the School Department and he need tu
begin moving quiddy on this project. Our usual two readings are requiretl by state law and charter
provisions that require this process for appropdah'on reso/✓es, which we usually incorporate into bou l
orders. In this case, we have split the bond order and appropriation resolve; the latter of which you will
find under Rrs ReaWngs and Referrals m CommnWe.
