IN CONNECTION WITH AN INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT REVENUE BOND FINANCING ON BEHALF OF HOFFMASTER COMPANY, INC. OR A PARTNERSHIP IN WHICH THOMAS J. HOFFMASTER AND THOMAS J. PROSSER WILL BE AMONG THE GENERAL PARTNERS WHEREAS, this body has adopted a resolution entitled "Initial Resolution Relating to Industrial Development Revenue Bond Financing On Behalf Of Hoffmaster Company, Inc. or a part- nership in which Thomas J. Hoffmaster and Thomas J. Prosser will be among the general partners" (the "Initial Resolution"); and WHEREAS, the Initial Resolution provides that upon certain conditions the City of Oshkosh, Wisconsin (the "Munici- pality") shall issue industrial development revenue bonds pur- suant to Section 66.521, Wisconsin Statutes, as amended (the "Act") to finance a project in the Municipality to be undertaken by Hoffmaster Company, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation or a part- nership in which Thomas J. Hoffmaster and Thomas J. Prosser will be among the general partners (the "Eligible Participant"); and WHEREAS, the Eligible Participant has represented that the intended use of the project is for the purpose of the paper manufacturing and converting business located at 2920 North Main Street and that the project would consist of a building expansion and installation and acquisition of equipment (the "Project"); and WHEREAS, Section (11)(b)1. of the Act contains pro- visions requiring competitive bidding for certain construction contracts and prohibiting discrimination with regard to the construction and operation of projects financed under the Act; and - 27a - m Resolution #23 WHEREAS, Section (11)(b)2. of the Act empowers the governing body of a municipality to waive the requirements of Section (11)(b)1. with respect to a particular project; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: 1. It is the finding and determination of this body that the Municipality will not control the design, costs, con- struction or operation of the Project; that no public moneys will 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 expen- ditures 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 purposes of the revenue bond issue if the Eligible Participant were to have complete control over the letting of contracts for construction for the Project; and that while an anti-discrimination policy such as that expressed in Section (11)(b)1. of the Act is sup- ported by this body, public policies of that sort applied in the context of a bond financing are more appropriately effectuated by contract with the Eligible Participant. Therefore, the Munici- pality does hereby waive the provisions of Section (11)(b)1. of the Act with regard to the Project; provided, however, that the revenue agreement to be entered into between the Eligible Par- ticipant and the Municipality shall contain anti-discrimination clauses satisfactory to the Municipality. 2. The Clerk shall cause the foregoing resolution to be published together with the public notice required by the Initial Resolution. - 27b - ��d �� m � � m � � c� tr r <= �p m n n X � N � 'n �� r � m ., � w , ' , o �mtrw � •° m �c o p m 'j C H i i •• N J R. r+ b7 G O �o � rNrcn 7J ¢+ fS N H A+ \ N 1"r tao xrr� oro o 0 ••rt H,d� M (D 9 C � � N m rn "C m I-� • N (D "d N n�r m-� J C] "J' I� �- o rt r l� i� � N m � N W
