Vitosh said the wording "surplus monies may be used for any lawful purpose" has been included in the Sewer Revenue bond resolution and two other partial re— strictions are being considered as outlined in her July 11th memo. Vitosh asked Council for the authorization to negotiate with Moody's and be able to add a partial restriction covenant if it becomes evident that such action is needed to obtain a Triple A rating on the bonds. Council agreed to give Vitosh that authorization to add partial restriction covenant to the sewer revenue bond resolution when negotiating with Moody's.
