Staff, as well as the financial, legal, assessment and underwriting consultants, have discussed the context of the surety with Lou Feldman, the developers' attorney. The draft surety is somewhat unique for this type of district and may be affected by Federal tax laws, as well as State statutory requirements for assessment districts. The details of these unique features are fairly complex, and staff and the consultants need additional time to be certain that these sureties will meet the City's financing policy existing statutes, as well as the Council's goals. For that reason, we are suggesting that the Council allow staff and the consultants additional time to review these items. We expect to complete that review during the next few weeks and would be bringing back a recommendation to authorize the sale of the bond or discontinue the project, whichever seems appropriate. The City Council direct staff to continue their efforts to work with the developers' attorney toward a bond sale or alternate recommendation. hds:golval.rk Agenda Item:
