RESOLUTION NO. 94-R-06 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EDGEWATER, FLORIDA, DECLARING OFFICIAL INTENT OF REIMBURSEMENT OF CAPITAL EXPENDITURES, REPEALING RESOLUTIONS IN CONFLICT HEREWITH AND ESTABLISHING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Edgewater, Florida, has made the following determinations: 1. The Florida Shores Road Improvement Program has been authorized. 2. Prior to selecting the method of financing the project, engineering and other project related costs will be incurred. 3. It is in the best interest of the citizens of Edgewater that these costs be included within the financing of the project at such time as the method of financing has been selected and that the monies expended in the interim be reimbursed from the proceeds of the selected financing method. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT ENACTED by the City Council of the City of Edgewater, Florida: Section 1. The Internal Revenue Service has issued Section 1.150-2 of the Income Tax Regulations (the "Regulations") dealing with the issuance of obligations, all or a portion of the proceeds of which are to be used to reimburse the City for project expenditures made by the City prior to the date of issuance of the obligations. The Regulations generally required that (1) the City make a prior declaration of its official intent to reimburse itself for such prior expenditures out of the proceeds of a subsequently issued borrowing, ( 2 ) that the borrowing occur and the reimbursement allocation be made from the proceeds of such borrowing within eighteen months of the payment of the expenditure or, if longer, within eighteen months of the date the project is placed in service but in no event more than 3 years after the original expenditure is paid, and (3) that the expenditure be a capital expenditure. 94-R-06 1 ,..,. ..."" This Council has determined that it is necessary and in the best interests of the City to provide for paving and the construction of certain road improvements pursuant to the Florida Shores Road Improvement Project. It is presently expected that the total projected costs of these capital expenditures are approximately fifteen million dollars ($15,000,000.00). The City intends to finance all or a portion of such cost through the issuance of long term financing obligations, the interest on which is intended to be excludable from the gross income of the recipient for federal income tax purposes. The City expects to make expenditures for costs relating to the capital expenditures after the date of this resolution and prior to the issuance of such obligations or finalizing the terms of financing the cost of the capital expenditures. Section 2. The City proposes to undertake the payment of the capital expenditures. Other than (1) expenditures to be paid or reimbursed from sources other than a borrowing or (2) expenditures constituting preliminary expenditures as defined in Section 1.150- 2(f)(2) of the Regulations, no expenditures have heretofore been made by the City and no expenditures will be made by the City until after the date of this resolution. The City reasonably expects to reimburse the expenditures made for costs of the capital expenditures out of the proceeds of an issue of bonds payable from special assessments levied against benefitted properties or other form of financing obligation (the "Obligation") to be incurred by the City in a maximum principal amount of fifteen million dollars ($15,000,000.00) after the date of payment of all or a portion of such costs. All reimbursed expenditures shall be capital expenditures as defined in Section 1.150-1(b) of the Regulations. Section 3. Except as described below, as of the date hereof, there are no funds of the City reserved, allocated on a long term basis or otherwise set aside (or reasonably expected to be reserved, allocated on a long term basis or otherwise set aside) to provide permanent financing for the expenditures related to the capital expenditures, other than pursuant to the Obligation. This 94-R-06 2 resolution, therefore, is determined to be consistent with the City's budgetary and financial circumstances as they exist or are reasonably foreseeable on the date hereof, all within the meaning and content of the Regulations. Section 4. All resolutions or parts of resolutions in conflict herewith be and the same are hereby repealed. Section S. This resolution shall take effect upon adoption. After Motion by Councilman Mitchum and Second by Councilman Hays, the vote on this resolution was as follows: Mayor Jack H. Hayman, Sr. AYE Councilman Kirk Jones AYE Councilwoman Louise A.
