A Special Meeting of the Indianapolis Local Public Improvement Bond Bank (“Bond Bank”) convened at 12:00 p.m., Monday, March 19, 2007 at the City-County Building, 200 East Washington Street, Suite 224, Indianapolis, Indiana, pursuant to notice given in accordance with IC 5-14-1.5. Board Chair Mary Chandler called the meeting to order after determining that a quorum was present.
Ms. Chandler asked for a motion to approve the minutes from February 26, 2007. Mr. Jacob Hall made the motion to approve the minutes, seconded by Mr. Thomas O’Donnell. All then voted in favor and the motion passed.
The first order of business was Resolution No. 3 - 1998A Refunding. Mr. Brad Hartz gave a brief summary of the transaction stating that the Indianapolis Bond Bank would like to do a current refunding of a portion of the 1998A Bond Bank Bonds. The refunding could be executed now, for forward delivery, or any time until the February 1, 2008 call date for the 1998A Bond Bank Bonds. The Bond Bank anticipates issuing $69.055 million to refund approximately $68.205 million of the 2014 - 2018 maturities of the outstanding 1998A Bond Bank Bonds. Debt service for the 2007 refunding transaction will match, as closely as possible, the existing debt service for the 1998A Bond Bank Bonds being refunded.
Because interest rates are lower today than when the 1998A bonds were issued, a savings is realized.
Mr. Hartz explained the expenses, and noted that in the fourth quarter there was a line item for Flood Control District: $225,000; Sanitary & Flood Improvements; Separation & Renovation of the Sewer System; Metropolitan Thoroughfare District: $866,000; Bridge & Street Rehabilitations, Improvements, and Replacements; Traffic Control Park District: $483,000; Improvements to Municipal Parks, Athletic Fields, & Pools; Greenways & Trails; Sanitary District: $1,135,000 with improvements to Wastewater Treatment Plants, Pump Stations & Sewers; Assessments.
A $69.1 million Callable
Refunding of the Series 1998A Bonds generates approximately $2.7 million in NPV
savings or a savings of 3.98% of refunded par. This would have a Total Interest
Cost equaling 4.13% and an All-In Total Interest Cost equaling 4.27%, with a delivery
date of 11/6/2007.
