WHEREAS, the City of Oshkosh, Wisconsin (the "MUnicipality"), has by resolution of its City Council expressed its intent to issue bonds pursuant to Section 66.521, Wisconsin Statutes, in an amount not to exceed $600,000 for the purpose of financing on behalf of Centracor, Inc. (the "Borrower") a manufacturing facility (the "Project"); and WHEREAS, Section 66.521(11)(b)1., Wisconsin Statutes, contains provisions requiring competitive bidding for certain construction contracts and prohibiting discrimination with regard to the construction and operation of projects financed under Section 66.521, Wisconsin Statutes (the "Act"), and Section 66.521(11)(b)2. of the Act empowers the governing body of a municipality to waive the requirements of Section 66.521 (11)(b)1. with respect to a particular project. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by this City Council of the City of Oshkosh, it is the finding and determination of this City Council that the Municipality will not control the design, costs, construction or operation of the Project; that no public moneys wi11 be expended for the Project; that the Municipality will have no beneficial ownership in the Project; that the primary reason for requiring competitive bidding for construction of municipal projects is to protect the taxpayers against excessive expenditures of public funds and that such reason, although sound as applied to public works, is not applicable to the Project in which no general funds or tax revenues of the Municipality will be used or put at risk; that it would be more efficient and expedient for the accomplishment of the public putposes of the bond issue if the Borrower were to have complete control over the letting of contracts for construction for the Project; dnd that while an anti-discrimination policy such as that expressed in Section 66.521(11)(b)1. of the Act is supported by this City Council, public policies of that sort applied in the context of a bond financing are more appropriately effectuated by contract with the Borrower. Therefore, the Municipality does hereby waive the provisions of Section 66.521(11)(b)1. of the Act with regard to the Project; provided, however, that the Revenue Agreement shall contain anti-dicrimination clauses satisfactory to the Municipality. FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City Clerk is hereby directed to publish this resolution as a class 1 notice under Ch, 985, Wisconsin Statutes (relating to publication of official notices) in the official newspaper of the Municipality pursuant to such chapter.
