authentication upon any such Bond shall be conclusive evidence that such Bond has been
authenticated and delivered under this Resolution. The certificate of authentication on any Bond
shall be deemed to have been executed by the Registrar if signed by an authorized officer of the
Registrar, but it shall not be necessary that the same officer sign the certificate of authentication
on all of the Bonds issued under this Resolution.
Section S. Registration ofBonds; Persons Treated as Owners. (a) The City shall cause
books (the "Bond Register") for the registration and for the transfer of the Bonds as provided in
this Resolution to be kept at the designated office of the Registrar,which is hereby constituted and
appointed the registrar of the City with respect to the Bonds herein authorized. The City is
authorized to prepare, and the Registrar shall keep custody of, multiple Bond blanks executed by
the City for use in the transfer and exchange of Bonds.
Upon surrender for transfer of any Bond at the principal corporate trust office of the
Registrar, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in
form satisfactory to the Registrar and duly executed by, the registered owner or his or her attorney
duly authorized in writing, the City shall execute and the Registrar shall authenticate, date and
deliver in the name of the transferee or transferees a new fully registered Bond or Bonds of the
same maturity of authorized denominations, for a like aggregate principal amount. Any fully
registered Bond or Bonds may be exchanged at said office of the Registrar for a like aggregate
principal amount of Bond or Bonds of the same maturity of other authorized denominations. The
execution by the City of any fully registered Bond shall constitute full and due authorization of
such Bond and the Registrar shall thereby be authorized to authenticate, date and deliver such
Bond, provided, however, the principal amount of outstanding Bonds of each maturity
authenticated by the Registrar shall not exceed the authorized principal amount of Bonds for such
maturity less previous retirements.
The Registrar shall not be required to transfer or exchange any Bond during the period
beginning at the close of business on the 15th day of the month next preceding any interest
payment date on such Bond and ending at the opening of business on such interest payment date,
nor to transfer or exchange any Bond after notice calling such Bond for redemption has been
mailed, nor during a period of fifteen (15) days next preceding mailing of a notice of redemption
of any Bonds.
The person in whose name any Bond shall be registered shall be deemed and regarded as
the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and payment of the principal of or interest on any Bond
shall be made only to or upon the order of the registered owner thereof or his or her legal
representative. All such payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability
upon such Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of Bonds, but the City or the
Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge
that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Bonds except in the case of
the issuance of a Bond or Bonds for the unredeemed portion of a Bond surrendered for redemption.
(b) Global Book-Entry System. The Bonds shall be initially issued in the form of a
separate single fully registered Bond for each of the maturities of the Bonds determined as
described in Section 2 hereof. Unless otherwise requested by any Purchaser,upon initial issuance,
the ownership of each such Bond shall be registered in the Bond Register in the name of Cede &
Co.,or any successor thereto("Cede"), as nominee of The Depository Trust Company,New York,
New York, and its successors and assigns ("DTC"). All of the outstanding Bonds shall be
registered in the Bond Register in the name of Cede, as nominee of DTC, except as hereinafter
provided. The Mayor, the City Manager, the Treasurer, the Director of Finance and any other
business official of the City and the Registrar are each authorized to execute and deliver, on behalf
of the City, such letters to or agreements with DTC as shall be necessary to effectuate such book-
entry system(any such letter or agreement being referred to herein as the "Representation Letter"),
which Representation Letter may provide for the payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds
by wire transfer.
With respect to Bonds registered in the Bond Register in the name of Cede, as nominee of
DTC, the City and the Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation to any broker-dealer,
bank or other financial institution for which DTC holds Bonds from time to time as securities
depository (each such broker-dealer, bank or other financial institution being referred to herein as
a "DTC Participant")or to any person on behalf of whom such a DTC Participant holds an interest
in the Bonds. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the City and the Registrar
shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to (i) the accuracy of the records of DTC,
Cede or any DTC Participant with respect to any ownership interest in the Bonds, (ii) the delivery
to any DTC Participant or any other person, other than a registered owner of a Bond as shown in
the Bond Register, of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption, or
(iii) the payment to any DTC Participant or any other person, other than a registered owner of a
Bond as shown in the Bond Register, of any amount with respect to the principal of or interest on
the Bonds. The City and the Registrar may treat and consider the person in whose name each
Bond is registered in the Bond Register as the holder and absolute owner of such Bond for the
purpose of payment of principal and interest with respect to such Bond, for the purpose of giving
notices of redemption and other matters with respect to such Bond, for the purpose of registering
transfers with respect to such Bond, and for all other purposes whatsoever. The Registrar shall
pay all principal of and interest on the Bonds only to or upon the order of the respective registered
owners of the Bonds, as shown in the Bond Register, or their respective attorneys duly authorized
in writing, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the
City's obligations with respect to payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds to the
extent of the sum or sums so paid. No person other than a registered owner of a Bond as shown
in the Bond Register, shall receive a Bond evidencing the obligation of the City to make payments
of principal and interest with respect to any Bond. Upon delivery by DTC to the Registrar of
written notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede,
and subject to the provisions in Section 3 hereof with respect to the payment of interest to the
registered owners of Bonds at the close of business on the 15th day of the month next preceding
the applicable interest payment date, the name "Cede" in this resolution shall refer to such new
nominee of DTC.
In the event that (i) the City determines that DTC is incapable of discharging its
responsibilities described herein and in the Representation Letter, (ii) the agreement among the
City, the Registrar and DTC evidenced by the Representation Letter shall be terminated for any
reason or (iii) the City determines that it is in the best interests of the beneficial owners of the
Bonds that they be able to obtain certificated Bonds, the City shall notify DTC and DTC
Participants of the availability through DTC of certificated Bonds and the Bonds shall no longer
be restricted to being registered in the Bond Register in the name of Cede, as nominee of DTC. At
that time, the City may determine that the Bonds shall be registered in the name of and deposited
with such other depository operating a universal book-entry system, as may be acceptable to the
City, or such depository's agent or designee, and if the City does not select such alternate universal
book-entry system,then the Bonds may be registered in whatever name or names registered owners
of Bonds transferring or exchanging Bonds shall designate, in accordance with the provisions of
Section 5(a) hereof.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this resolution to the contrary, so long as any Bond
is registered in the name of Cede, as nominee of DTC, all payments with respect to principal of
and interest on such Bond and all notices with respect to such Bond shall be made and given,
respectively, in the name provided in the Representation Letter.
Section 6. Prior Redemption. Bonds maturing on and after January 1, 2029, shall be
subject to redemption prior to maturity at the option of the City as a whole, or in part in such order
of maturity as the City may determine(less than all of the Bonds of a single maturity to be selected
by the Registrar as hereinafter provided), on January 1, 2028, and on any date thereafter, at the
redemption price of 100% of the principal amount thereof being redeemed plus accrued interest to
the date fixed for redemption.
The Bonds shall be redeemed only in the principal amount of$5,000 and integral multiples
thereof. The City shall, at least forty-five (45) days prior to any optional redemption date (unless
a shorter time period shall be satisfactory to the Registrar)notify the Registrar of such redemption
date and of the principal amount and maturity or maturities of Bonds to be redeemed. For purposes
of any redemption of less than all of the outstanding Bonds of a single series and maturity, the
particular Bonds or portions of Bonds to be redeemed shall be selected by lot by the Registrar from
the Bonds of such series and maturity by such method of lottery as the Registrar shall deem fair
and appropriate;provided that such lottery shall provide for the selection for redemption of Bonds
or portions thereof so that any $5,000 Bond or $5,000 portion of a Bond shall be as likely to be
called for redemption as any other such$5,000 Bond or $5,000 portion. The Registrar shall make
such selection upon the earlier of the irrevocable deposit of funds with an escrow agent sufficient
to pay the redemption price of the Bonds to be redeemed or the time of the giving of official notice
of redemption.
The Registrar shall promptly notify the City in writing of the Bonds or portions of Bonds
selected for redemption and, in the case of any Bond selected for partial redemption, the principal
amount thereof to be redeemed.
Section 7. Redemption Procedure. Unless waived by any holder of Bonds to be
redeemed, notice of the call for any such redemption shall be given by the Registrar on behalf of
the City by mailing the redemption notice by first class mail at least thirty (30) days and not more
than sixty (60) days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the registered owner of the Bond or
Bonds to be redeemed at the address shown on the Bond Register or at such other address as is
furnished in writing by such registered owner to the Registrar.
All notices of redemption shall state:
(1) the date fixed for redemption,
(2) the redemption price,
(3) if less than all outstanding Bonds are to be redeemed, the identification,
including CUSIP numbers (and, in the case of any partial redemption, the respective
principal amounts) of the Bonds to be redeemed,
(4) that on the date fixed for redemption the redemption price will become due
and payable upon each such Bond or portion thereof called for redemption, and that interest
thereon shall cease to accrue from and after said date, and
(5) the place where such Bonds are to be surrendered for payment of the
redemption price, which place of payment shall be the designated office of the Registrar.
Unless moneys sufficient to pay the redemption price of the Bonds to be redeemed at the
option of the City shall have been received by the Registrar prior to the giving of such notice of
redemption, such notice may, at the option of the City, state that said redemption shall be
conditional upon the receipt of such moneys by the Registrar on or prior to the date fixed for
redemption. If such moneys are not received, such notice shall be of no force and effect, the City
shall not redeem such Bonds, and the Registrar shall give notice, in the same manner in which the
notice of redemption shall have been given, that such moneys were not so received and that such
Bonds will not be redeemed. Otherwise, prior to any redemption date, the City shall deposit with
the Registrar an amount of money sufficient to pay the redemption price of all the Bonds or
portions of Bonds which are to be redeemed on that date.
Subject to the provisions for a conditional redemption described above, notice of
redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Bonds or portions of Bonds so to be redeemed
shall, on the redemption date, become due and payable at the redemption price therein specified,
and from and after such date (unless the City shall default in the payment of the redemption price)
such Bonds or portions of Bonds shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of such Bonds for
redemption in accordance with said notice, such Bonds shall be paid by the Registrar at the
redemption price. Installments of interest due on or prior to the redemption date shall be payable
as herein provided for payment of interest. Upon surrender for any partial redemption of any
Bond, there shall be prepared for the registered holder a new Bond or Bonds of the same maturity
in the amount of the unpaid principal.
If any Bond or portion of Bond called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender
thereof for redemption, the principal shall, until paid, bear interest from the redemption date at the
rate borne by the Bond or portion of Bond so called for redemption. All Bonds which have been
redeemed shall be cancelled and destroyed by the Registrar and shall not be reissued.
Section 8. Payable Solely from Net Revenues. The Bonds, the Outstanding Bonds and
any Parity Bonds, together with premium (if any) and interest thereon, shall be payable only out
of the Water Utility Special Redemption Fund as hereinafter provided, and shall be a valid claim
of the owners thereof only against the Water Utility Special Redemption Fund and from the net
revenues pledged to such fund, and on a parity with the Outstanding Bonds;and sufficient revenues
are hereby pledged to the Water Utility Special Redemption Fund, and shall be used for no purpose
other than to pay the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on the Bonds, the Outstanding
Bonds and any Parity Bonds as the same fall due.

BACKGROUND
In November of 2018 the Common Council adopted the 2019 Capital Improvement Program
(CIP). Staff was then able to execute a reimbursement declaration in November of 2018. In
April of 2019 the initial borrowing resolutions stated the intent to borrow and also authorized
staff to proceed with the preparation and documentation needed to sell the bonds. As noted in
the April Council communication, the sale of the bonds needed to occur at least 30 days after
the initial resolution was authorized, and this requirement has been satisfied. This
authorization is the final step in the 2019 borrowing process for Water and Sewer Utilities.
As is normal practice, the Water and Sewer bonds, as outlined above, will be offered to the
public through a competitive sale on Tuesday, June 25, 2019. Following the sales, and
tentative agreement, the sales and accompanying terms will be presented for approval to the
Council at Tuesday's meeting.

We are again separating the Utility borrowings from the general obligation borrowings to
match the obligations with the funds that benefit from the borrowings and to manage the
City's debt burden in recognition of the regulatory limit of 5% of Equalized Value for General
Obligation Debt. This also allows the City to reserve general obligation borrowing capacity for
future needs.
ANALYSIS
For planning purposes, a True Interest Cost (TIC) of 3.244% and 3.093% was assumed for the
Series 2019D Water Revenue Bonds and Series 2019E Sewer System Revenue Bonds,
respectively. However, as was noted by Ehlers at the June 11 Council Meeting, interest rates
have dropped since the initial planning for these issues was undertaken so we are expecting
more favorable rates assuming no significant upward interest rate movement between June 11
and June 25. Since the time the planning runs were prepared, market conditions have been
improved so we would anticipate more favorable results.
FISCAL IMPACT
The issuance of the Water Revenue Bonds (2019D) for $11,085,000 of will be paid off over
twenty years. This issuance of the Bonds, includes a refunding of the 2011F issuance. Based
on the rates assumed for planning purposes, this refunding saves approximately $223,000 over
the remaining life of the bond.
The issuance of the Sewer System Revenue Bonds (2019E) for$16,115,000 of will be paid off
over twenty years. This issuance of the Bonds, includes a refunding of the 2010G and 2011 E
issuances. It is anticipated this refunding will save the approximately$392,000 over the
remaining life of the bond.
The interest expense (the cost of borrowing the funds) that will be incurred over the life of the
obligations will be determined next Tuesday, and presented to the Council at the meeting that
evening.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends adoption of the above noted resolutions.
