Motion carried. 98594 - Dick Pavia, Speer Financial, Inc., reported that this issuance was split into two separate offerings to reflect the different tax structures for the bond holders. Mr. Pavia stated that the city did qualify for insurance from AMBAC Insurance Company, resulting in an approximate savings to the city of $23,000. He also noted that the bidderscan now submit bid bonds in addition to the previously approved certified checks. Mr. Pavia also reported that the bond repayment schedule is structured to coincide with previously issued bond schedules and retirement. In recommending its schedule to the city, the annual bond payments and required revenue to make these payments is considered. The city is ultimately responsible for selection of the appropriate retirement schedule. The relatively low interest rate accurately reflects the current market at the current time. Moved by Angel, seconded by Budak that the Council adjourn at 11:30 a.m. Motion carried. Larry P. Burger City Clerk/Auditor
