health care delivery system and that certain of the services
which are provided by the Medical Center are not provided and

taking of the proposed project by the City will be a substan-
tial factor in the ability of the Medical Center to provide
such necessary services and to contain the cost of such
services.
Section-2. The City hereby determines that it is likely
that the undertaking of the project by the City will be a
substantial factor in the accrual of each of the public

pals, Inc. (the "Principal Underwriter") upon such terms and
conditions as are provided in the Bond Purchase Agreement
hereafter approved.
Section 5. The Bonds shall be special obligations of
the City and shall not be deemed to constitute a debt or
liability of the City or a pledge of the faith and credit of
the City, but shall be payable solely from the Note Payments
and Additional Payments received from the Medical Center
under the terms of the Project Agreement, described here-
inafter, and from certain other funds to be held by the
Trustee as provided in the Resolution of Issuance. The
issuance of such Bonds shall not directly or indirectly or
