Additional benefits anticipated to be realized by the reduction of unemploy- ment and the under-employment attributable to the installation of the project and the general economic revitalization resulting therefrom in- clude the reduction of public assistance expenditures because the project will be self supporting at no unreimbursed cost to the city. 5.1 .4 Construction of the project when complete is anticipated to add a total of nearly X4 ,200 ,000 of assessed valuation to the tax rolls of the city. In addition it is anticipated that the project will generate additional sales tax and business license revenues for the city . 5.1 .5 The useful method of financing provided for in Ordinance No. 3815 of the city vis a vis the use of the conventional method will permit the applicant to move forward with the financing and completion of custom designed tenant improvements for the project within an accelerated time frame. As the city is well aware , conventional interest rates are at historically high levels and many sources of conventional financing do not currently have funds available to loan at any interest rate . The method of financing provided in Ordinance No. 3815 will provide new sources of financing to the applicant and such financing will be made available at lower tax exempt interest rates. 5.2 The applicant belives that the installation of the project and the financing thereof pursuant to Ordiance No. 3815 of the city are in conformance with the findings setforth in Section 1 of Ordiance No. 3815.

However , as described in part 5 .1 the financing of the project under the method provided by Ordinance No. 3815 will provide additional financing sources to the applicant at lower tax exempt rates and will enable the time schedule for completion of the project to be accelerated. 5.2.4 The city will only provide a method of financing the project and will only be paid certain fees to reimburse the city for costs incurred by the city in connection with the financing of the project . The city will not realize a profit in such a manner as to compete with or rival private firms and the applicant is not requesting the city take any more action than is neccessary to consummate the financing . As described in part 5.1 certain incidental benefits will of course accrue to the city as a result of the installation of the project. 5.2.5 In part 5 .1 the applicant has outlined the programs by which it is expected that the applicants activity in the city will increase long term employment of local residents. 5.2.6 The city will receive a substantial benefit (as described in paragraph 5.1 ) from installation of the project that exceeds any detriment incurred by the city . The project will be self supporting . Ordinance No . 3815 and the documents pursuant to which any bonds issued by the city to finance the project provide or will provide that such bonds are limited obligations of the city to finance the project payable only from revenues generated by the project and that all fees and expenses incurred by B:BOND-FIN 8:cb 8.0 PART V continued. . . Page Eight the city in connection with the project will be required to be paid by the applicant .
