Van Milligen, City Manager FROM: Jennifer Larson, Budget Director SUBJECT: Proceedings for Reallocation of General Obligation Bonds Series 2012H DATE: November 14, 2016 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this memorandum is to provide suggested proceedings for holding a public hearing on the reallocation of General Obligation Bond Series 2012H. DISCUSSION The City of Dubuque issued General Obligation Bonds ($2,385,000) in the fall of 2012 for the purpose of paying the costs of aiding in the planning, undertaking and carrying out of urban renewal project activities for Greater the Downtown Urban Renewal District and the Technology Park South District, including those costs associated with construction of a rail platform for the intermodal transportation center; Multicultural Family Center repairs and improvements including renovation of the second floor; construction of an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant restroom; utilities extensions; and construction of a trail in Technology Park South. Since the Multicultural Family Center second floor renovation project is on hold until the Jule Operations and Training Center project is completed, a balance remains. These proceedings are required to reallocate the balance of the bonds not to exceed $820,500 of the unused bond funds from the renovation of the second floor of the Multicultural Family Center ($820,500 as of November 14, 2016) to fund the construction of the Jule Operations and Training Center, as permitted by Iowa Code. The City will rebudget for the Multicultural Family Center project in a future budget year. RECOMMENDATION I respectfully recommend the adoption of the enclosed resolution fixing the date of December 5, 2016 for a public hearing on the proposal to reallocate unspent bond proceeds of the General Obligation Series 2012H and providing for publication of notice.
