D. 1. Consider a resolution expressing official intent to reimburse costs of acquiring certain vehicles and equipment. In accordance with the operating budget, certain equipment is acquired with cash and subsequently financed for three years through a tax - exempt leasing arrangement. Because of the tax- exempt nature of the financing, Internal Revenue Service regulations require the City to state its intentions before the transactions are completed. Staff Resource Person: David Kautz, Finance Director. This type of financing allows the City to replace equipment and rolling stock on a timely basis as replacement criteria are met. The cost of the equipment is spread over a period of 3 years, thus minimizing the impact on any one operating budget . Additionally, the tax - exempt lease rates offer a very favorable cost of capital to the City. For the current fiscal year, the equipment to be financed is scheduled at $500,000. Annual debt service on this amount, assuming 5% financing is less than $184,000.
