TCS:lmp:bonds.cdc COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA MEETING DATE: 12/02/1996 Agenda Item Number: {'5 -I ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGENCY STAFF REPORT . Rackgrollnd: The City refinanced the City Hall in March, 1992 through the delivery of Certificates of Participation (the "COP's") in an amount equal to $12,000,000. A portion of the proceeds of the COP's were used to refund the previous issuance of 1973 lease revenue bonds by the Civic Center Authority which were issued to finance the original construction of the City Hall and Convention Center. The remaining funds from the COP's were used to make deposits into several internal service funds of the City to replenish the balances in such funds. The COP's were issued as variable rate demand notes with a final maturity date of March I, 2022, but the COP's were payable as to interest only until such time as the City elected to establish the interest rate at a fixed rate of interest for the remaining term. In order for the City to fix the interest rate, it would be required to undertake a remarketing of the COP's to new purchasers at a fixed rate. The COP's were secured by a direct pay letter of credit issued by Sumitomo Trust & Bank of New York and confirmed by a second letter of credit obtained from Sumitomo Bank in Chicago. The letter of credit arrangement allowed for the variable rate COP's to be issued as variable rate demand debt and to obtain the highest short-term municipal bond rating available for such obligations. . The current structure of the COP's does not provide for any mandatory principal repayment as long as the City maintains the variable rate option. During the past four (4) fiscal years the City has budgeted and deposited into a voluntary sinking fund an amount equal to $1,557,000. This amount includes the deposit of $400,000 as presently budgeted for the 1996-97 fiscal year. It is intended that this entire $1,557,000 amount will be applied for the reduction of the principal amount of any financing obligations issued by the City to refund the COP's. The original letter of credit had a commitment term of five (5) years from the original issuance date. The City does have the option to seek a renewal of the term of the letter of credit, or to obtain a replacement letter of credit, and thus continue with the payment of the variable rate interest only payments to the bondholders. The municipal bond market interest rates are at extremely advantageous levels at this time to warrant the City to consider the fixing of the interest rate on the permanent financing for the City Hall at a municipal bond rating of"AAA". . TCS:bnp:bonds.cdc COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA MEETING DATE: 12/02/1996 Agenda Item Number: fs ~ I . ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGENCY STAFF REPORT Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds November 27,1996 Page Number 2 COMPUTER ACQUISITION: On November 4, 1996, the Council authorized request for proposals relative to the implementation of the Information Systems Network Upgrade Plan. The anticipated cost for the system as now proposed is $3,300,000, which amount would be expended over the next 24 months. Although the City could finance the computer acquisition with lease-purchase agreement financing provided through the vendors of the equipment or through other leasing institutions, a definite cost advantage will be available to the City by including the computer acquisition within the refinancing of City Hall. The City will be able to fmance the computer equipment for up to ten (10) years with an interest rate based upon an "AAA" rated insured tax-exempt financing. The financing would have semi- armual payments of interest starting on July 1, 1997, and armual principal payments commencing on January 1, 1998, to fully amortize the computer acquisition debt within ten (10) years. The debt service reserve fund will be used to pay a large portion of the final payment at the ten (10) year maturity date. . PROPOSED STRUCTURE: . .. The City has obtained the insurance commitment from MBIA for municipal bond insurance for both the City Hall refinancing and the equipment purchase. MBIA has previously insured the 1988 Central City North Tax Allocation Bonds of the EDA, and MBIA has been familiar with the City and EDA financial condition and the other factors affecting the economy within the San Bernardino County area. The MBIA municipal bond insurance will enable the City to have the San Bernardino Joint Powers Public Financing Authority ("JPF A") issue the 1996 Lease Revenue Bonds in a principal amount equal to approximately $16,300,000 as AAA rated long-term debt obligations. The City will enter into a single Lease-Purchase Agreement for the City Hall refinancing, refurbishing of the elevators in City Hall to make them accessible to the disabled, and the equipment acquisition. The City Hall, currently owned in fee title by the EDA, will be the sole security for the refinancing portion of the 1996 Lease Revenue Bonds, and it will be necessary for the EDA to additionally secure the equipment acquisition portion with a security interest in the 5-level parking structure. The 5-level parking structure is also currently owned by the EDA. At the end ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ TCS:lmp:bonds.cdc COMMISSION MEETING AGENDA MEETING DATE: 12/02/1996 Agenda Item Number: es, I . . e ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGENCY STAFF REPORT Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds November 27, 1996 Page Number 3 of the term of the lO-year computer equipment acquisition financing, the 5-level parking structure would continue to be owned by the EDA, but without any encumbrance from the 1996 Bond documents. During the term of the financing of the computer equipment, the EDA will be able to further encumber the 5-level parking structure if authorized by the Commission through the issuance of debt secured by the 5-level parking structure. The City would receive fee title to the City Hall at the end of the term of the 1996 Lease Revenue Bonds on March I, 2022, or earlier upon a prior redemption of the 1996 Lease Revenue Bonds. Title to the Convention Center was transferred to the City without any encumbrances or other debt obligation in March, 1992, upon issuance of the COP's. DEBT SERVICE AMOIJNTS: The City is currently budgeting in the 1996-97 fiscal year $500,000 for the interest payments on the COP's and another $400,000 on average for the voluntary sinking fund payment. Additionally, the City has approved in the MIS budget a line item of $285,000 for lease payments and $50,000 for equipment maintenance. These amounts were previously used to fund debt service and hardware maintenance of the existing computer system. Now that the system has been paid in full, the funds can be used for this purpose. Thus, at least $335,000 is available in $e current budget for the payments towards the computer equipment acquisition amounts. The first payment for both the City Hall portion and the computer equipment acquisition will not need to be made until the 1997-98 fiscal year of the City. The City will also have made available approximately $250,000 in budget savings for a COP's interest payment that is scheduled to be made on March I, 1997. This payment would not be required if the issuance of the 1996 Lease Revenue Bonds is accomplished in a timely manner. The actual interest cost on the COP's has averaged approximately $520,000 per year with the EDA paying an additional $85,000 for the letter of credit annual fees. The City Hall portion of the 1996 Lease Revenue Bonds will be structured with net interest only payments for the first five (5) years of approximately $614,000 per year commencing on July I, 1997, and then amortized net debt service payments of combined principal and interest of $954,000 for years six (6) through the maturity date of December I, 2022. The equipment financing portion of the 1996 Bonds will have a set net debt service payment of approximately $450,000 through December I, 2006, with the first semiannual payment to be made.
