An inducement resolution with a "life" of six (6) months was approved by the Mayor and Common Council on March 3,1986 (inducement expires 9/3/86). Staff discussed with Mr. Vlach the salient features of the recently passed Senate tax bill and H.R. 3838, the House tax bill and indicated that in order to hold the TEFRA pUblic hearing, he would have to pay the $10,000 lOB fee, with no assurance that the House/Senate conference committee would have completed its work on compromise tax legislation. A TEFRA resolution also has a "life" of six (6) months. Mr. Vlach indicated he would be willing to go forward with the TEFRA public hearing and the related fee so the process for the approval of final bond documents could be expedited once tax simplification legislation was passed. The market study and other lOB policy requirements have been complied with by Mr. Vlach. The construction of forty (40) units is expected to have no effect on current supply/demand market characteristics. Because staff was unable to notice the public hearing four- teen (14) days prior to the Council meeting, the Mayor and Common Council adopted Resolution No. 86-62 on August 18, 1986, authorizing an extension of the Inducement Resolution to November 3, 1986. On September 8, 1986, the Mayor and Common Council authorized continuance of the TEFRA public hearing to October 6, 1986, in order to allow the developer time to approach a bond underwriter or placement agent. Mr. Vlach advises staff that although the bond underwriters contacted seem interested in his project, they are unable to make a commitment without some assurance of a bond allocation from the City. Unfortunately, due to the pending Tax Reform Bill, it would not be prudent to make allocations until the new legislation is finalized and its effects analyzed. Staff anticipates the pending legislation to be finalized in late October. Mr. Vlach has requested extending the "life" of the induce- ment resolution and continuance of the TEFRA pUblic hearing to December 15, 1986, due to the reasons (new tax bill) outlined above. The extension would provide time for staff to evaluate the iinal legislation (including its effect on our volume cap). Then, if the City elects to issue the estimated $1.9 million bond allocation to this project, the developer would have enough time to acquire an underwriter, hold the TEFRA public hearing and arrange for the sale of 15-0264 o o o bonds before the Industrial Development Bond deadline on December 31, 1986. Staff recommends adoption of resolution extending the "life" of the inducement resolution to December 15, 1986, and continuance of TEFRA public hearing to December 15, 1986.
