DATE: October 7, 2005
SUBJECT: City Council Meeting - October 13, 2005
ITEM: *10.C.2. Consider a resolution expressing official intent to reimburse
cost of acquiring certain vehicles and equipment.
Department: Finance Department
Staff Person: Cindy Demers, Finance Director
Justification:
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. This type
of financing allows the City to acquire new equipment and replace equipment and rolling
stock in a timely manner as replacement criteria are met. For the current fiscal year, the
equipment to be financed is scheduled at $600,000.
Funding:
Cost: $600,000
Source of funds: Payment of principal and interest for the three-year amortization of
this obligation is funded from the debt service portion of the
property tax.
Outside Resources: N/A
Background Information:
With a three-year payback, the impact on any one operating budget is minimized.
Additionally, the tax-exempt lease rates offer a very favorable cost of capital to the City.
This program permits scheduled replacement of worn equipment on a revolving basis.
