From: Chris O'Brien, Director of Transportation & Resource Management
Re: Transit engine removal and replacement
Introduction: At the May 17 City Council meeting, consideration will be given to a resolution
authorizing the procurement of services to remove and replace engines for transit buses for the
Transportation and Resource Management Department.
History/background: In March of 2016 a contract was awarded to Cummins Central Power
LLC after submitting a response to an RFP put out by the City in December of 2015. The
contract included the parts and labor necessary to remove and replace engines in transit heavy
duty buses that were unable to be restored to working condition. It was anticipated at that time
that the repairs necessary for four engines would cost $125,000, which is within the City
Manager's signature authority.
Discussion of Solution: After completing the repairs on the four engines, two more engines
went in for what we thought were minor repairs. Upon getting into the repairs it was found that
the issues were more extensive and that these two engines were also in need of replacement.
The cost for removing and replacing the existing engines would carry this contract beyond the
signing authority of the City Manager which is $150,000, thus requiring City Council approval.
Financial Impact: The estimated cost to complete the work involved in the removal and
replacement of the two engines will be approximately $68,000, resulting in a total contract
amount of around $200,000.
Recommendation: It is the recommendation of the Transportation & Resource Management
Department to authorize the procurement of these services in order to get these vehicles in
working condition.

June 16, 2016
The applicant, Kum & Go, has submitted a final plat for Riverside Crossing Plat 1, a 1 -lot, 1.4 -acre
subdivision located at the northwest comer of South Riverside Drive and West Benton Street.
These properties were rezoned from Community Commercial (CC -2) to Riverfront Crossings -
West Riverfront (RFC -WR) at the City Council meeting on September 19, 2015.
ANALYSIS:
The final plat of SUB15-00022 is a one lot commercial subdivision intended to consolidate
previously platted lots into one lot prior to redevelopment of the property as a convenience
store/gas station. No preliminary plat was filed. The City may waive submission of the preliminary
plat if the final plat includes all the requirements of the preliminary plat. Staff finds that the
submitted plat is in compliance with the subdivision regulations. There are no public
improvements planned within the platted area, therefore, there are no construction drawings
required. Legal papers are currently being reviewed by staff. It is anticipated that these
documents will be approved prior to the May 3, 2016 City Council meeting.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of SUB15-00022, the final plat of Riverside Crossing, Plat 1, a 1 -lot,
1.4 -acre commercial subdivision located at the northwest corner of South Riverside Drive and
West Benton Street, subject to approval of legal papers by the City Attorney.

MEMORANDUM
From: Dan Striegel- Equipment Superintendent
Re: May 17, 2016 City Council Meeting
Introduction: At the May 17, 2016 City Council meeting, consideration will be given to a
resolution approving the purchase of two (2) municipal snow plow truck bodies from Henderson
Products Inc. in Manchester, IA.
History/Background: The City of Iowa City Streets Division currently has two (2) plow trucks
that are budgeted for replacement in Fiscal Year 2016. These trucks are used for snow removal
in the winter months and general hauling throughout the year.
Discussion of Solutions: In working with the Streets Superintendent, the National Joint
Powers Alliance (NJPA) contract #080114 -HPI will be utilized for the purchase of the truck
bodies which affords a 30% discount off of list price. Contract price for one body is $88,139.00
and the other body price is $109,052.00 as per quotes from Henderson Products, Inc. dated
April 13, 2016. Both bodies are equipped with front plow, wing plow, combination
dump/spreader body and salt brine pre -wetting system. One of the bodies will also include an
underbody scraper. The addition of the pre -wetting systems and underbody scraper will help
enhance the City's snow and ice management capabilities. The truck chassis (2) will be put out
for bid in a separate solicitation.
Financial Impact: The total cost for both truck bodies is $197,191.00 after contract discounts.
Funds for this purchase are available in account # 8101-710520 and account # 2200-710330.
Recommendation: Due to the age and condition of the current plow trucks, it is recommended
this purchase for replacement be approved.

Excerpted from draft version of the
Minutes of the May 10, 2016
Economic Development Committee meeting
Fruin spoke to Members regarding this request, noting that in 2013 the Riverfront Crossings
Master Plan was adopted for this area. This section of Gilbert Street is included in the Master
Plan and the request for facade improvements would be a very positive thing for this area. He
spoke to the value of improving one of the older buildings in this area and about Big Grove's
plans for it. Matt Swift then addressed Members, stating that they are excited about the
opportunity to bring Big Grover Brewery to Iowa City. They plan to use a high-tech brewing
system that will enable them to brew in an efficient manner. There will be a tap room addition in
the rear of the building which will open up toward the park behind the building. Mims stated that
she was very pleased to see this application and the plans that Big Grove has for this building.
Cole agreed with Mims, stating that this area of Riverfront Crossings could use a development
of this type. He believes it will become a destination. Throgmorton also agreed that the project
will be a plus for the area. He then asked for some clarification of the plans in the packet — he
wanted to know more about a mezzanine area that is shown on the drawings and how it
integrates with the rest of the floor plan. Swift explained where noting that it will be busieness
offices and located above the main floor area of the building. Fruin then spoke briefly to the
park development to the west, noting that Council will be seeing some plans soon regarding
what is projected for this area.
Cole moved to recommend the request to the full City Council for financial assistance of
$40,000 for facade improvements to Big Grove Brewery, located at 1225 S. Gilbert Street.
Throgmorton seconded the motion.
The motion carried 3-0.
Date: May 9, 2016
To: City Council Economic Development Committee
From: Geoff Fruin, Interim City Manager
Re: Recommendation for Big Grove Brewery Fagade Grant
The City Council adopted the Downtown and Riverfront Crossings Master Plan in 2013. Since
that time, the City has budgeted funds in the Capital Improvement Program to facilitate both
public and private improvements that help achieve the vision articulated in the plan. The City
has taken a similar approach to help spur activity in the Towncrest neighborhood. Over the last
few years, the Riverfront Crossing and Towncrest capital improvement funds have been used to
fund public planning studies, as well as support private development primarily though facade
improvement grants.
Since the adoption of the Downtown and Riverfront Crossings Master Plan, the City has
experienced strong development interest in Riverfront Crossings. Much of this interest has been
located in the core of the district (e.g. MidwestOne, Sabin Townhomes, CA Ventures) and on
the western edge (e.g. Emrico Riverside Apartments, Kum and Go, Brueggers, Hampton Inn).
The eastern edge of the district along Gilbert Street has been slower to attract strong
development interest. This corridor is critically important to the overall plan, particularly with
respect to how redevelopment can strengthen the pedestrian and bicycle connections to
downtown, as well as the visual appeal of both the Gilbert Street and Ralston Creek frontages.
Several months ago, Big Grove Brewery approached the City about locating a brewery /
taproom at 1225 S Gilbert (former Iowa Hawk Shop Outlet Building). City staff worked with Big
Grove representatives on zoning and building code considerations. Through those discussions
Big Grove elected to move forward under the existing commercial zoning classification.
However, Big Grove has repeatedly indicated their excitement for the Riverfront Crossings Plan
and is anxious to partner with the City to ensure that the vision for Gilbert Street, the Ralston
Creek corridor and the Riverfront Crossings Park are all carried out. The vision in the City's
master plan played heavily in Big Grove's relocation decision.
The Riverfront Crossings Plan did not anticipate the re -purposing of the building at 1225 S.
Gilbert. However, staff believes the creative reuse of the building is a perfect fit in the context of
the overall plan. It will add a distinctive and memorable urban/industrial character to the street,
creek and park frontages while still providing the flexibility to achieve the plan goals of improving
pedestrian, bicycle and vehicular circulation.
Big Grove is making a significant investment in the property and is planning to flip the active
frontage of the building from the Gilbert Street side to the Ralston Creek side, which will be
directly across from the future Riverfront Crossings Park. The new west facing active front
speaks directly to the City's desire to activate and engage with Ralston Creek and the Iowa
River. The building layout will also create tremendous synergy with the future park and Ralston
Creek trail.
With a west facing frontage, the facade treatment on the east side of the building becomes
critically important. Being the first redevelopment project in this part of Riverfront Crossings, the
City is interested in ensuring that the facade treatment helps set the tone for future projects. Big
Grove has indicated it is prepared to make minor repairs and paint the building prior to opening.
EDC 5.10.16 packet
page 9
However, a preferred option would be to work with the City on an enhanced fagade that includes
corrugated aluminum siding, custom art and enhanced signage. This treatment would greatly
enhance the attractiveness of the building and create an industrial character that fits the
business, plan and creek frontage very well. A draft rendering of the fagade is included with the
Big Grove request letter. It should be noted that fagade design is still being refined and final
colors and other treatments are likely to be modified.
The Big Grove Brewery project is a perfect fit for the Gilbert Street corridor and the overall
Riverfront Crossings Plan. The project involves the creative reuse of an existing building by a
locally owned and operated business. The business plan to open up to the creek and future
park will help set the desired tone of engagement with our waterways. Big Grove Brewery is
committed to the vision of the City's plan and is taking a risk being the first business to make
significant investment in the Gilbert Street corridor since the plan was adopted. The City has an
opportunity to work with Big Grove on an enhanced fagade treatment that will add to the overall
project, but more importantly help establish a higher level of design along this corridor.
Big Grove has requested $40,000 in fagade assistance for this project. The request is in line
with previous fagade grants that have been provided through our Building Change program
downtown. I am recommending approval of a 40% fagade grant with a maximum cap of
$40,000, to be paid from existing fund balance in the Riverfront Crossings capital improvement
budget line. If the City Council Economic Development Committee concurs, staff will work with
the City Attorney's Office on a corresponding agreement and seek final approval from the full
Council.

Fagade Grant Request
Big Grove Brewery & Taproom
Iowa City Expansion
1225 South Gilbert Street
Iowa City, IA 52240
To Whom It May Concern:
My name is Matthew Swift and I am one of the owners of Big Grove Brewery in Solon,
IA. We are planning an expansion into the River Front Crossings district at 1225 South Gilbert
Street. We are requesting $40,000 in assistance to put a new facade on the building.
A little background on our company and our plans to move into Iowa City. We are
currently brewing on a very small system, a 3.5 barrel system (one barrel = 31 gallons) and we
produce just over a 1000 barrels a year. Most of the beer is consumed at the brewery itself but
we do have 20 retail customers that carry our beer when stock is available. In addition, we
have a waiting list of accounts that would like to carry our products. In the end we came to this
simple conclusion, we need to make more beer! To be clear, we have no plans on changing any
part of our business in Solon. That facility will continue to brew experimental brews and focus
on delivering a great brew pub experience. We view BGB Solon as our Brew Pub and BGB Iowa
City as our Production Brewery & Taproom. It is our intention to grow into two locations, not
move our business. The new brewery system we would like to put in place has the ability to
make twenty times the beer we make currently. The system utilizes a technology called mash
filtering and is extremely efficient. It uses less water, grain and hops on the hot side of the beer
brewing process. This would be the ninth craft brewery in America to utilize this type of system
and technology. Next step, find a space large enough to house a brewery of this scale.
Thus we began our search for a 2nd location. We had several factors that we were
looking for in the future property: lots of space, proximity to a downtown, walking & biking
access, green space, good access for loading and logistics. We didn't think that Iowa City would
end up being our home because of all of obstacles that you could run into when looking for a
property like this in a community that has a low inventory of older warehouse -style buildings.
That all changed when Geoff Fruin and the city staff walked us through the River Front
Crossings plan. This new district is exciting and it met all of our needs. River Front Crossings
Park that sits behind the building is major bonus and once bridge connections are made the
walkability from downtown to the site is easy and safe. The way that the space interacts with
all of the new amenities is important to us and we look forward to continuing to work with the
city as different parts of the project come online. We believe that the Crossings District has the
ability to reshape the south side of Iowa City and possibly become an extension of downtown
much like the North Side Marketplace.
EDC 5.10.16 packet
page 11
The building is the former storage facility of the Hawk Shop and was originally a lumber
yard. The exterior of the building is in pretty bad shape. It is missing boards, paint is chipping
off, old dented fences, stairs that are in need of repair, etc. Our request for the assistance is to
change all of that. We would like to put a pre finished corrugated aluminum siding with
concealed fasteners from Pac-Clad. The budget number we have in place of these
improvements is $108,100. $24,900 for the soffit (the building has several large overhangs) and
$83,200 to clad the building. There will also be considerable expense for the signage and
mural art that will be placed on the exterior. We are still bidding out costs on replacing the
stairs on the south east corner of the building as well. We are requesting $40,000 in assistance
to make this project financially viable.
I'm attaching our current renderings that reflect our vision for 1225 S. Gilbert St. The
design team is working on what colors and the art piece will look like. I'm also attaching
photographs of the building in its current state. Without the assistance of the city we will move
forward with a less expensive and less attractive option, probably paint. We truly do appreciate
the consideration and are excited to be a part of bringing production beer brewing back to Iowa
City.
Respecful ly,
Matthew Swift

FROM: Jason Havel, City Engineer
RE: Iowa City Gateway
HNTB Consultant Agreement Amendment No. 3
Introduction:
This project includes the elevation of Dubuque Street, the reconstruction of the Park Road
Bridge over the Iowa River and the expansion of Park Road from two to three lanes to Riverside
Drive. The project has been designed as a multi -modal corridor to include roadway, intersection
and utility improvements (water, storm and private), new sidewalk and trails, and a trunk
sanitary sewer.
History/Background:
The City contracted with HNTB Corporation of Kansas City, MO in November, 2010 for
consulting services for the Iowa City Gateway project. On December 19, 2013, the NEPA
process was completed with the signing of the Finding of No Significant Impact by the Federal
Highway Administration. In July, 2014, City Council established the project design elements for
the Iowa City Gateway project, including a more complex Through -Arch Bridge on Park Road
over the Iowa River. Final design of the project began shortly afterward and was completed in
December 2015 with a final submittal to the Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT).
Discussion:
HNTB Corporation has requested additional funds for additional services required to address
plan review and revisions requested by the City of Iowa City, the University of Iowa and the
Iowa Department of Transportation. Some of these services included the extension of project
limits for sewer and water improvements, the addition of a pedestrian overlook along the
retaining wall at Kimball Road, the re -design and coordination with the completed Mayflower
Flood Mitigation project, the completion of a tree survey in the project limits and coordination for
the addition of Cathodic protection to the water main.
Financial Impact:
Staff has reviewed the additional work request and has negotiated a not to exceed amount of
$349,912.50. This revises the maximum amount payable for design of the entire project to
$6,472,928.39 and will be funded with Local Option Sales Tax Funds and a $3M U.S. Economic
Development Administration (EDA) Grant. The awarded construction contract for the project is
$40,552,162.78.
Recommendation:
Staff is recommending that the City amend the agreement for design and construction services
with HNTB Corporation of Kansas City, MO for the additional work that was required for
additional services to complete final design and engineering for an Iowa DOT letting.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: May 12, 2016
TO: Geoff Fruin, City Manager
FROM: Jason Havel, City Engineer
RE: Iowa City Gateway
Construction Phase Engineering Services
Introduction:
yd 67)
This project includes the elevation of Dubuque Street, the reconstruction of the Park Road
Bridge over the Iowa River and the expansion of Park Road from two to three lanes to Riverside
Drive. The project has been designed as a multi -modal corridor to include roadway, intersection
and utility improvements (water, storm and private), new sidewalk and trails, and a trunk
sanitary sewer. This project is included in the capital program, has been successfully let
through the Iowa DOT and a contract awarded by Iowa City to Peterson Contractors, Inc.
Construction is expected to begin on May 31, 2016.
History/Background:
The City contracted with HNTB Corporation of Kansas City, MO in November, 2010 for consulting
services for the Iowa City Gateway project. On December 19, 2013, the NEPA process was
completed with the signing of the Finding of No Significant Impact by the Federal Highway
Administration. The Iowa DOT received bids on April 19, 2016 and the City subsequently awarded
a contract for construction of the project to Peterson Contractors, Inc. of Reinbeck, IA.
Discussion:
Construction services were not provided in the original agreement with HNTB. The City will act as
the contract administrator for construction of the project and has determined that it is desirable for
HNTB Corporation to provide construction phase engineering services. HNTB services are needed
for review of working drawings for and field observation of structural elements (bridge and retaining
wall), shop drawing review and approval, on-call assistance during construction and meeting
participation.
Financial Impact:
The additional construction services will be invoiced by task and done on an hourly basis with a not
to exceed fee of $1,401,046.00. The estimated construction cost for the project is $40,552,162.78.
Federal and State funds will provide for $7,500,000.00 of the construction costs. The City's local
share of the construction costs will be funded with Local Option Sales Tax Funds and General
Obligation Bonds.
Recommendation:
Staff is recommending that the City approve the agreement with HNTB Corporation for consulting
services during construction of the Iowa City Gateway.

MEMORANDUM
Date: May 11, 2016
To: City Council
From: Eleanor M. Dilkes, City Attorne
Re: Property to North of City Hall - Purchase Agreement with Aspen Ventures LLC
Background
Aspen Ventures LLC, by member Jesse Allen, proposes to purchase the property to the
North of City Hall for the development of multi -family residential housing, office space, a
multi -story parking facility, and a fire station for use by the City. The City Manager has
signed a Purchase Agreement that is contingent on City Council approval. Closing on the
Purchase Agreement is then contingent on the execution of a mutually -agreeable
Development Agreement, which shall include agreement regarding the design and
development of the Project, and acquisition by the City of the fire station, office and
parking facility components by a Lease -Purchase Agreement with such components to be
constructed by Aspen Ventures along with the residential components of the project. The
purchase price is for the current appraised value of $3,330,000 and may be adjusted by
the parties to reflect any public benefits negotiated in connection with the Development
Agreement. The details of the Project will be set forth in the Development Agreement and
Lease -Purchase Agreement, both of which must be approved by the City Council.
The legal structure contemplated for this project is the same as that used for the Harrison
Street Parking Facility/Sabin Townhomes Project currently under construction. The
primary difference is that with the former project the land was owned by the Developer.
Here, the land must be transferred to the Developer by the City prior to commencement of
construction. A horizontal property (condominium) regime will be imposed on the Property
that is agreeable to the Developer and the City, and the City will lease -purchase the
condominium unit(s) to be used for the city components from the Developer. With the
exception of the public hearing on the plans, specifications and cost estimates, a contract
for construction by a private party of property to be lease -purchased to a city is not subject
to the public bidding requirements of the state code. However, because it is a financing
mechanism it must be approved in accordance with the bond approval requirements of the
state code. This type of Project requires that detailed cost estimates, plans and
specifications, as well as long term financing must be agreed to and documented in the
Lease -Purchase Agreement and the accompanying documents concerning long term
financing. Because the Lease -Purchase Agreement as well as the Development
Agreement regarding the design and development of the entire Project are contingencies,
the Purchase Agreement provides for a relatively lengthy time for satisfaction of the
contingencies. Closing is to occur no later than January 1, 2017 and the City Manager is
given the authority to extend the closing date for an additional four months without City
Council approval. Staff will keep the Council informed as the project progresses.
Recommendation
As the owner of the Unitarian Church at the corner of Gilbert Street and Iowa Avenue,
Aspen Ventures is uniquely situated to partner with the City for development of the
property to the North of City Hall and has previously shared his concept plans with the
City Council. The partnership, if agreement can be reached, will also result in achieving
May 11, 2016
Page 2
the community objective of preserving the church with landmark designation status.
While there are numerous contingencies in the purchase agreement, it is, in essence, an
agreement between the City and the Developer to work together to come up with a project
that serves the needs of both parties, as well as the public. Staff recommends that the
Council set a public hearing on the Purchase Agreement for June 6, 2016 with
consideration of approval to follow.

MEMORANDUM
Date: May 10, 2016
To: Geoff Fruin, Interim City Manager
From: Chris O'Brien, Director of Transportation & Resource Management
Re: Agenda item for May 17, 2016 City Council Meeting
Introduction: The Transportation & Resource Management Department is pursuing the
City of Iowa City Parking Garage Maintenance Program and Bridge Repair 2016 Project within
the approved Parking Facility Restoration Repair budget.
History/background: As a part of our ongoing facility maintenance we routinely perform
repairs to concrete, caulk joints, expansion joints, etc., in order to maintain the integrity of the
facilities. This project will primarily consist of concrete repairs and sealant in the Capitol Street
facility along with minor repairs in the Dubuque Street, Tower Place and Chauncey Swan
facilities. In addition to this year's parking garage maintenance we have added an add alternate
that includes expansion joint work on three Iowa City bridges. The scope of work is right in line
with work performed on parking garage expansion joints and fit well into our project.
Discussion of Solution: This work will begin in June and finish in October and will result in
temporary loss of spaces to allow for the concrete work to be completed. We intend to have all
facilities operational for the duration of the project.
Conclusion: We enlisted the services of THP Limited Inc., to complete a work detail
and bid documents for the City of Iowa City Parking Garage Maintenance Program 2016
Project. They estimated the cost of this project, including design, is $400,000.00 to be funded
out of parking operations. This project will aid in extending the life of the parking facilities and
help protect against more costly repairs in the future. This project was approved as a part of the
CIP program.

Date: May 9, 2016
To: City Council
From: Geoff Fruin, Interim City Manager
Re: Iowa City Public Library (ICPL) Bookmobile Funding
Background
The City Council adopted the FY 2017 budget on March 1, 2016. Included in the budget were
new net expenditures of $60,696 to support the ICPL's planned bookmobile launch. During
budget deliberations, there were questions raised about how the ICPL's bookmobile may impact
the operations of the non-profit Antelope Lending Library and whether there may be
opportunities for those two entities to collaborate. Ultimately, the City Council adopted the
budget with a provision in the resolution that "Allocation or expenditure of any funds to the
library for the Bookmobile is contingent on subsequent approval of the specific project by the
City Council." The City Council requested that the City Manager's Office facilitate discussions
with the two entities and report back with a recommendation prior to the start of the new fiscal
year.
Summary of ICPL and Antelope Lending Library Meetings
To start the engagement process I met with Antelope and the ICPL separately for the purpose
of better understanding each organization's thoughts on the issue. These meetings were
important to help me understand the history and service goals of each organization prior to
facilitating a group discussion. Subsequent to those individual meetings, two group meetings
were held on April 12th and April 29th. Participating in the group meetings were the following
individuals:
• Susan Craig, Iowa City Public Library
• Kara Logsden, Iowa City Public Library (April 29th only)
• Angela Pilkington, Iowa City Public Library
• Cassandra Elton, Antelope Lending Library
• Braeden Jones, Antelope Lending Library
The purpose of the April 12th meeting was to develop a shared understanding between the
organizations and identify potential opportunities for collaboration. For the City Council's benefit
a summary of the ICPL bookmobile plans and services of the Antelope Lending Library are
provided below:
Iowa City Public Library Bookmobile Plans
The ICPL identified the launch of a bookmobile service as a top priority in their FY 2016
Strategic Plan. The ICPL hopes to commence bookmobile services in the spring of 2017. In
order to meet this objective the ICPL has recently retained a consultant to guide a Request for
Proposal (RFP) process for the design and procurement of a new, 28'-35' custom bookmobile.
New staff is expected to be hired in early spring of 2017.
While operational plans are not finalized, preliminary service details are summarized below:
May 9, 2016
Page 2
• Flexible service provided by two paid staff members to various parts of Iowa City and
within the contracted communities outside of Iowa City.
• Stops will focus on neighborhoods, parks and locations that serve populations
experiencing the most difficulty accessing the ICPL (e.g. children and seniors)
• Additional programming may be tailored to the stop location (e.g. instructions on digital
access of library collections at senior housing sites)
• Year-round service, 4 days a week, increasing to 5 days a week in the summer.
Additional hours will focus on special events and programs in the service area (e.g.
Party in the Park)
• A full range of library collections will be available, along with public Wi-Fi. The
bookmobile will deliver holds to customers at scheduled stops and offer library cards
among other services.
Antelope Lending Library Services
The Antelope Lending Library started service to the Iowa City community in 2013. Antelope
receives its 501(c)3 status through the James Gang, a community building organization based
in Iowa City, and relies heavily on community donations and volunteers. Antelope has increased
its scope of service in each subsequent year and anticipates service growth in the coming
years. A summary of the service is provided below:
• Service via a 1998 32' Bookmobile is focused in the summer months with 15-20 stops
over 5 days each week. Additional stops are provided for community events and
festivals. Limited year round service has been provided in the past at the Center for
Worker Justice and Twain Elementary.
• Stops aim to serve those with access barriers including transportation and language
barriers. Staff and volunteers are bilingual.
• The collection includes 3,000-4,000 books, which are approximately 66% K-6, 17%
young adult and 17% adult. Wi-Fi and computer access services are provided. Additional
programming is also available depending on the nature of the stop.
• Antelope relies heavily on community partnerships and noted more than a dozen
noteworthy community partners including the City's Parks and Recreation Department.
Based on discussion at the April 12'" meeting, I identified the following five opportunities for
further discussion:
• Opportunity 1: Utilize the upcoming summer season to strengthen the working
relationship between Antelope and the ICPL in a manner that will be mutually beneficial.
• Opportunity 2: Work to jointly coordinate and promote services in a manner that
recognizes the value of both entities, minimizes duplication of services, and eliminates
confusion of differing offerings and policies.
• Opportunity 3: Explore joint programming opportunities such as a bookmobile festival
where the mission and offerings of both services could be on display for a large
audience.
• Opportunity 4: Contemplate opportunities to work together to build broader, stronger
bases of charitable support for both organizations.
• Opportunity 5: Promote a greater understanding of the services provided by Antelope
and strengthen the relationship and collaborative efforts with the ICPL and other area
libraries by inviting Antelope to present annually at an ICPL Board meeting and/or at the
Public Libraries of Johnson County meetings.
While other opportunities were briefly discussed, it does not appear that a shared service
arrangement or a contractual relationship is feasible at this time. Such service arrangements
could be explored down the road, particularly if the partnership between the organizations is
strengthened through other collaborations. The five opportunities noted above became the
focus for the April 29th meeting. On April 29'" there was general consensus that the five
identified opportunities provided a framework for the two entities to start to work more closely
May 9, 2016
Page 3
together for the benefit of the shared population that they serve. At the same meeting, Antelope
inquired if some of the FY 2017 funding could be used to support their services in this coming
year.
Recommendation
It is my recommendation that the City Council provide the final budget authorization needed for
the ICPL to carry out their strategic plan objective to operate a bookmobile service beginning in
FY 2017. However, the ICPL should follow through on their commitments made through this
process to fully explore mutually beneficial collaborations with Antelope in the coming year with
such plans to be more fully developed in anticipation of the spring/summer 2017 service launch.
More specific thoughts on the five identified opportunities are included below:
Opportunity 1: Utilize the upcoming summer season to strengthen the working
relationship between Antelope and the ICPL in a manner that will be mutually beneficial.
Antelope expressed interest in serving as a pilot program for the ICPL to help foster a stronger
understanding of service capabilities and community needs. The ICPL expressed interest in
conducting meet -ups with Antelope at stops this summer. Such meet -ups would not only help
inform ICPL staff of service needs in the community but may also help foster a stronger, more
collaborative relationship between the two entities. One specific opportunity this summer may
be centered on activities being planned by the Chamber of Commerce Education Task Force,
which includes representatives of both Antelope and the ICPL.
Opportunity 2: Work to jointly coordinate and promote services in a manner that
recognizes the value of both entities, minimizes duplication of services, and eliminates
confusion of differing offerings and policies.
Service coordination will be critical for both entities and there was acknowledgement that stops
must be thoughtfully spaced in order to minimize confusion. There appears to be a great
opportunity to work together on marketing plans and collateral that promote both services.
Antelope has developed strong community partnerships that could also be extended to the
ICPL. The ICPL has a large network of users and marketing / graphic design expertise that
could help raise awareness of the services provided by Antelope. The ICPL has offered to
display Antelope brochures in the children's area of the library. The ICPL has also generously
offered to design, print and distribute marketing materials in the future that promote both
operations.
Opportunity 3: Explore joint programming opportunities such as a bookmobile festival
where the mission and offerings of both services could be on display for a large
audience.
While poorly coordinated stops could cause confusion and harm both services, joint
programming could potentially have a significantly positive impact. Co -locating at special events
or creating a bookmobile festival could raise awareness of both organizations and demonstrate
in a very visible manner that both services are highly valued in the community. Such events
would be a fantastic opportunity to expose both services to audiences that may not regularly
seek out bookmobiles at routine stops. Ideas expressed include National Bookmobile Day, a
summer kick-off celebration, Arts Fest, Jazz Fest and Soul Fest among others.
Opportunity 4: Contemplate opportunities to work together to build broader, stronger
bases of charitable support for both organizations.
Both bookmobile services depend on the charitable support from the communities in which they
serve. While service levels, collections and operating policies may differ, the general goal of
enhancing access to library services is shared. The organizations should contemplate whether
they can work together to broaden and strengthen their donor networks. Intermingling donor
May 9, 2016
Page 4
networks and splitting proceeds at charitable events could prove mutually beneficial for both
entities. The ICPL recently conducted a joint fundraising event with other area libraries. This
experience could provide a template for a future fundraising effort with Antelope.
Opportunity 5: Promote a greater understanding of the services provided by Antelope
and strengthen the relationship and collaborative efforts with the ICPL and other area
libraries by inviting Antelope to present annually at an ICPL Board meeting and/or at the
Public Libraries of Johnson County meetings.
In three years, Antelope has grown from an idea to a highly valued service in the community.
With limited resources they have grown operations each year and continued to build their
customer base and reach into the community. Their list of community partnerships is quite
impressive and speaks to their ability to meet a wide variety of needs in the community. The
ICPL and other area libraries should recognize and embrace the role Antelope has in the
community. At a minimum, the Library Board should consider inviting Antelope to present
annually at a Board meeting. ICPL staff has also invited Antelope to present at the May meeting
of the Public Libraries of Johnson County. This type of engagement can hopefully lead to new
ideas and a continuing commitment to work together.
As previously noted, Antelope also inquired if the City could use some of the budgeted funds in
FY 2017 to support Antelope operations this year. While I do not support a direct subsidization
of Antelope operations, I would be amenable to providing the ICPL discretion to use a portion of
budgeted funds to support a joint community event with Antelope prior to the launch of the ICPL
bookmobile. This could be a joint fundraising venture, a community celebration on National
Bookmobile Day next spring and/or any number of other similar events that benefit both
organizations and the greater community. Again, I feel this discretion is best left to the ICPL
Board and staff.
As part of my recommendation, the ICPL should provide the City Council with an update on their
bookmobile plans and the anticipated collaborations with Antelope no later than December, 31
2016. This update will help guide the Council as you deliberate the FY 2018 budget in January
of 2017.
Conclusion
I would like to personally thank the representatives from the ICPL and Antelope for the manner
in which they approached these discussions. Everyone maintained a positive, supportive
attitude and genuinely aimed to find opportunities to collaborate. I believe both parties
expressed a great deal of respect for each other and were truly interested in finding productive
ways to move forward.
Iowa City is incredibly fortunate to have a world-class library operation with the ICPL. Similarly,
the story of the rise of the Antelope Lending Library is quite inspirational. To move from idea to
an expansive service plan with extensive community partners in three short years is truly
amazing considering the fiscal constraints of the non-profit organization. While both will provide
similar services in the same approximate geographic area, with a commitment to collaboration
their value to the community could increase exponentially.

Bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co. will be made by wire transfer or New York
Clearing House or equivalent next day funds to the account of Cede & Co. on the interest
payment date for the Bonds at the address indicated or in the Representation Letter.
b) The Bonds will be initially issued in the form of separate single authenticated
fully registered bonds in the amount of each stated maturity of the Bonds. Upon initial
issuance, the ownership of the Bonds will be registered in the registry books of the U.S.
Bank National Association kept by the Paying Agent and Registrar in the name of Cede
& Co., as nominee of DTC. The Paying Agent and Registrar and the Issuer may treat
DTC (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive owner of the Bonds registered in its name
for the purposes of payment of the principal or redemption price of or interest on the
Bonds, selecting the Bonds or portions to be redeemed, giving any notice permitted or
required to be given to registered owners of Bonds under the Resolution of the Issuer,
registering the transfer of Bonds, obtaining any consent or other action to be taken by
registered owners of the Bonds and for other purposes. The Paying Agent, Registrar and
the Issuer have no responsibility or obligation to any Participant or Beneficial Owner of
the Bonds under or through DTC with respect to the accuracy of records maintained by
DTC or any Participant; with respect to the payment by DTC or Participant of an amount
of principal or redemption price of or interest on the Bonds; with respect to any notice
given to owners of Bonds under the Resolution; with respect to the Participant(s) selected
to receive payment in the event of a partial redemption of the Bonds, or a consent given
or other action taken by DTC as registered owner of the Bonds. The Paying Agent and
Registrar shall pay all principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds only to
Cede & Co. in accordance with the Representation Letter, and all payments are valid and
effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Issuer's obligations with respect to the
principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum paid.
DTC must receive an authenticated Bond for each separate stated maturity evidencing the
obligation of the Issuer to make payments of principal of and premium, if any, and
interest. Upon delivery by DTC to the Paying Agent and Registrar of written notice that
DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., the Bonds will
be transferable to the new nominee in accordance with this Section.
c) In the event the Issuer determines that it is in the best interest of the Beneficial
Owners that they be able to obtain Bonds certificates, the Issuer may notify DTC and the
Paying Agent and Registrar, whereupon DTC will notify the Participants, of the
availability through DTC of Bonds certificates. The Bonds will be transferable in
accordance with this Section. DTC may determine to discontinue providing its services
with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving notice to the Issuer and the Paying Agent
and Registrar and discharging its responsibilities under applicable law. In this event, the
Bonds will be transferable in accordance with this Section.
-12-
d) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Resolution to the contrary, so long
as any Bond is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, all payments
with respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bond and all
notices must be made and given, respectively to DTC as provided in the Representation
letter.
e) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to
Bondholders by the Issuer or the Paying Agent and Registrar with respect to a consent or
other action to be taken by Bondholders, the Issuer or the Paying Agent and Registrar, as
the case may be, shall establish a record date for the consent or other action and give
DTC notice of the record date not less than 15 calendar days in advance of the record
date to the extent possible. Notice to DTC must be given only when DTC is the sole
Bondholder.
f) The Representation Letter is on file with DTC and sets forth certain matters
with respect to, among other things, notices, consents and approvals by Bondholders and
payments on the Bonds. The execution and delivery of the Representation Letter to DTC
by the Issuer is ratified and confirmed.
g) In the event that a transfer or exchange of the Bonds is permitted under this
Section, the transfer or exchange may be accomplished upon receipt by the Registrar
from the registered owners of the Bonds to be transferred or exchanged and appropriate
instruments of transfer. In the event Bond certificates are issued to holders other than
Cede & Co., its successor as nominee for DTC as holder of all the Bonds, or other
securities depository as holder of all the Bonds, the provisions of the Resolution apply to,
among other things, the printing of certificates and the method or payment of principal of
and interest on the certificates. Any substitute depository shall be designated in writing
by the Issuer to the Paying Agent. Any such substitute depository shall be a qualified and
registered 'blearing agency" as provided in Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended. The substitute depository shall provide for (i) immobilization of
the Depository Bonds, (ii) registration and transfer of interests in Depository Bonds by
book entries made on records of the depository or its nominee and (iii) payment of
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds in accordance with and as such
interests may appear with respect to such book entries.
h) The officers of the Issuer are authorized and directed to prepare and furnish to
the purchaser, and to the attorneys approving the legality of Bonds, certified copies of
proceedings, ordinances, resolutions and records and all certificates and affidavits and
other instruments as may be required to evidence the legality and marketability of the

representations of the Issuer as to the correctness of all stated or recited facts.

Bonds registered in the name of Cede & Co. will be made by wire transfer or New York

issuance, the ownership of the Bonds will be registered in the registry books of the U.S.
Bank National Association kept by the Paying Agent and Registrar in the name of Cede
& Co., as nominee of DTC. The Paying Agent and Registrar and the Issuer may treat
DTC (or its nominee) as the sole and exclusive owner of the Bonds registered in its name
for the purposes of payment of the principal or redemption price of or interest on the
Bonds, selecting the Bonds or portions to be redeemed, giving any notice permitted or
required to be given to registered owners of Bonds under the Resolution of the Issuer,
registering the transfer of Bonds, obtaining any consent or other action to be taken by
registered owners of the Bonds and for other purposes. The Paying Agent, Registrar and
the Issuer have no responsibility or obligation to any Participant or Beneficial Owner of
the Bonds under or through DTC with respect to the accuracy of records maintained by
DTC or any Participant; with respect to the payment by DTC or Participant of an amount
of principal or redemption price of or interest on the Bonds; with respect to any notice
given to owners of Bonds under the Resolution; with respect to the Participant(s) selected
to receive payment in the event of a partial redemption of the Bonds, or a consent given
or other action taken by DTC as registered owner of the Bonds. The Paying Agent and

Cede & Co. in accordance with the Representation Letter, and all payments are valid and
effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Issuer's obligations with respect to the
principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum paid.
DTC must receive an authenticated Bond for each separate stated maturity evidencing the
obligation of the Issuer to make payments of principal of and premium, if any, and
M
interest. Upon delivery by DTC to the Paying Agent and Registrar of written notice that
DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee in place of Cede & Co., the Bonds will
be transferable to the new nominee in accordance with this Section.
c) In the event the Issuer determines that it is in the best interest of the Beneficial
Owners that they be able to obtain Bonds certificates, the Issuer may notify DTC and the
Paying Agent and Registrar, whereupon DTC will notify the Participants, of the
availability through DTC of Bonds certificates. The Bonds will be transferable in
accordance with this Section. DTC may determine to discontinue providing its services
with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving notice to the Issuer and the Paying Agent
and Registrar and discharging its responsibilities under applicable law. In this event, the
Bonds will be transferable in accordance with this Section.
d) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Resolution to the contrary, so long
as any Bond is registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, all payments
with respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bond and all
notices must be made and given, respectively to DTC as provided in the Representation
letter.
e) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to
Bondholders by the Issuer or the Paying Agent and Registrar with respect to a consent or
other action to be taken by Bondholders, the Issuer or the Paying Agent and Registrar, as
the case may be, shall establish a record date for the consent or other action and give
DTC notice of the record date not less than 15 calendar days in advance of the record
date to the extent possible. Notice to DTC must be given only when DTC is the sole
Bondholder.
f) The Representation Letter is on file with DTC and sets forth certain matters
with respect to, among other things, notices, consents and approvals by Bondholders and
payments on the Bonds. The execution and delivery of the Representation Letter to DTC
by the Issuer is ratified and confirmed.
g) In the event that a transfer or exchange of the Bonds is permitted under this
Section, the transfer or exchange may be accomplished upon receipt by the Registrar
from the registered owners of the Bonds to be transferred or exchanged and appropriate
instruments of transfer. In the event Bond certificates are issued to holders other than
Cede & Co., its successor as nominee for DTC as holder of all the Bonds, or other
securities depository as holder of all the Bonds, the provisions of the Resolution apply to,
among other things, the printing of certificates and the method or payment of principal of
and interest on the certificates. Any substitute depository shall be designated in writing
by the Issuer to the Paying Agent. Any such substitute depository shall be a qualified and
registered 'blearing agency" as provided in Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended. The substitute depository shall provide for (i) immobilization of
the Depository Bonds, (ii) registration and transfer of interests in Depository Bonds by
book entries made on records of the depository or its nominee and (iii) payment of

the purchaser, and to the attorneys approving the legality of Bonds, certified copies of
proceedings, ordinances, resolutions and records and all certificates and affidavits and
other instruments as may be required to evidence the legality and marketability of the

Refunded Bonds. Proceeds of the Notes shall be applied as follows:
♦ No proceeds will be used to meet the Reserve Fund Requirement,

way uses or is served by the System. So long as the Notes are outstanding and unpaid the rates
22-
or charges to consumers of services of the System shall be sufficient in each year for the
payment of the proper and reasonable expenses of operation and maintenance of the System and
for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes and Parity Notes and obligations as the
same fall due, and to provide for the creation of reserves as hereinafter provided.
Any revenues paid and collected for the use of the System and its services by the Issuer
or any department, agency or instrumentality of the Issuer shall be used and accounted for in the
same manner as any other revenues derived from the operations of the System.
Section 17. Application of Revenues. From and after the delivery of any Notes, and as long as
any of the Notes or Parity Obligations shall be outstanding and unpaid either as to principal or as
to interest, or until all of the Notes and Parity Obligations then outstanding shall have been
discharged and satisfied in the manner provided in this Resolution, the entire income and
revenues of the System shall be deposited as collected in a fund to be known as the Sewer
Revenue Fund (the "Revenue Fund"), and shall be disbursed only as follows:
(a) Operation and Maintenance Fund. Money in the Revenue Fund shall first
be disbursed to make deposits into a separate and special fund to pay current expenses.
The fund shall be known as the Sewer Revenue Operation and Maintenance Fund (the
"Operation and Maintenance Fund"). There shall be deposited in the Operation and
Maintenance Fund each month an amount sufficient to meet the current expenses of the
month plus an amount equal to 1/12th of expenses payable on an ammual basis such as
insurance. After the first day of the month, further deposits may be made to this account
from the Revenue Fund to the extent necessary to pay current expenses accrued and
payable to the extent that fiends are not available in the Surplus Fund.
(b) Sinking Fund. Money in the Revenue Fund shall next be disbursed to
make deposits into a separate and special fund to pay the principal and interest
requirements of the Fiscal Year on the Notes and Parity Obligations. The fund shall be
known as the Sewer Revenue Note and Interest Sinking Fund (the "Sinking Fund"). The
required amount to be deposited in the Sinking Fund in any month shall be the equal
monthly amount necessary to pay in full the installment of interest coming due on the
next interest payment date on the then outstanding Notes and Parity Obligations, plus the
equal monthly amount necessary to pay in full the installment of principal coming due on
such Notes on the next succeeding principal payment date until the full amount of such
installment is on hand. If for any reason the amount on hand in the Sinking Fund exceeds
the required amount, the excess shall forthwith be withdrawn and paid into the Revenue
Fund. Money in the Sinking Fund shall be used solely for the purpose of paying principal
of and interest on the Notes and Parity Obligations as the same shall become due and
payable.
(c) Reserve Fund. Money in the Revenue Fund shall be disbursed to maintain
a debt service reserve in an amount equal to the Reserve Fund Requirement. Such fund
shall be known as the Sewer Revenue Debt Service Reserve Fund (the "Reserve Fund").
In each month there shall be deposited in the Reserve Fund an amount equal to 25 percent
of the amount required by this Resolution to be deposited in such month in the Sinking
Fund; provided, however, that when the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund shall be
-23-
not less than the Reserve Fund Requirement, no further deposits shall be made into the
Reserve Fund except to maintain such level, and when the amount on deposit in the
Reserve Fund is greater than the balance required above, such additional amounts shall be
withdrawn and paid into the Revenue Fund. Money in the Reserve Fund shall be used
solely for the purpose of paying principal at maturity of or interest on the Notes and
Parity Obligations for the payment of which insufficient money shall be available in the
Sinking Fund. Whenever it shall become necessary to so use money in the Reserve Fund,
the payments required above shall be continued or resumed until it shall have been
restored to the required minimum amount.
(d) Subordinate Obli ations. Money in the Revenue Fund may next be used
to pay principal of and interest on (including reasonable reserves therefor) any other
obligations which by their terms shall be payable from the revenues of the System, but
subordinate to the Notes and Parity Obligations, and which have been issued for the
purposes of extensions and improvements to the System or to refire the Notes or Parity
Obligations in advance of maturity, or to pay for extraordinary repairs or replacements to
the System.
(e) Surplus Revenue. All money thereafter remaining in the Revenue Fund at
the close of each month maybe deposited in any of the funds created by this Resolution,
to pay for extraordinary repairs or replacements to the System, or may be used to pay or
redeem the Notes or Parity Obligations, any of them, or for any lawful purpose.
Money in the Revenue Fund shall be allotted and paid into the various funds and
accounts hereinbefore referred to in the order in which the funds are listed, on a cumulative basis
on the 10th day of each month, or on the next succeeding business day when the 10th shall not be
a business day; and if in any month the money in the Revenue Fund shall be insufficient to
deposit or transfer the required amount in any of the funds or accounts, the deficiency shall be
made up in the following month or months after payments into all funds and accounts enjoying a
prior claim to the revenues shall have been met in full. The provisions of this Section shall not
be construed to require the Issuer to maintain separate bank accounts for the funds created by this
Section; except the Sinking Fund and the Reserve Fund shall be maintained in a separate account
but may be invested in conjunction with other funds of the City but designated as a trust fund on
the books and records of the City.
Section 18. Outstanding Obligations. Nothing in this Resolution shall be construed to
impair the rights vested in the Outstanding Obligations. The amounts herein required to be paid
into the various fiords named in this Resolution shall be inclusive of payments required in respect
to the Outstanding Obligations. The provisions of the resolution or resolutions referred to in
Section 1 of this Resolution and the provisions of this Resolution are to be construed wherever
possible so that the same will not be in conflict. In the event such construction is not possible,
the provisions of the resolution first adopted shall prevail until such time as the Notes authorized
by the resolution have been paid in full or otherwise satisfied as therein provided at which time
the provisions of this Resolution shall again prevail.
-24-
Section 19. Investments. All of the funds provided by this Resolution may be invested
only in Permitted Investments or deposited in financial institutions which are members of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or its equivalent successor, and the deposits in which are
insured thereby and all such deposits exceeding the maximum amount insured from time to time
by FDIC or its equivalent successor in any one financial institution shall be continuously secured
in compliance with Chapter 12C of the Code of Iowa, 2015, as amended, or otherwise by a valid
pledge of direct obligations of the United States Government having an equivalent market value.
All such interim investments shall mature before the date on which the moneys are required for
the purposes for which the fund was created or otherwise as herein provided but in no event
maturing in more than three years in the case of the Reserve Fund.
All income derived from such investments shall lie deposited in the Revenue Fund and
shall be regarded as revenues of the System. Investments shall at any time necessary be
liquidated and the proceeds thereof applied to the purpose for which the respective fund was
created.
Section 20. Covenants Regarding the Operation of the System. The Issuer hereby
covenants and agrees with each and every holder of the Notes and Parity Obligations:
(a) Maintenance and Efficiency. The Issuer will maintain the System in good
condition and operate it in an efficient manner and at reasonable cost.
(b) Sufficiency of Rates. On or before the beginning of each Fiscal Year the
Governing Body will adopt or continue in effect rates for all services rendered by the
System determined to be sufficient to produce Net Revenues for the next succeeding
Fiscal Year adequate to pay principal and interest requirements and create reserves as
provided in this Resolution but not less than 110 percent of the principal and interest
requirements of the Fiscal Year. No free use of the System by the Issuer or any
department, agency or instrumentality of the Issuer shall be permitted except upon the
determination of the Governing Body that the rates and charges otherwise in effect are
sufficient to provide Net Revenues at least equal to the requirements of this subsection.
(c) Insurance. That the Issuer shall maintain insurance for the benefit of the
Noteholders on the insurable portions of the System of a kind and in an amount which
normally would be carried by private companies engaged in a similar kind of business.
The proceeds of any insurance, except public liability insurance, shall be used to repair or
replace the part or parts of the System damaged or destroyed, or if not so used shall be
placed in the Revenue Fund.
(d) Accounting and Audits. The Issuer will cause to be kept proper books and
accounts adapted to the System and in accordance with generally accepted accounting
practices, and will diligently act to cause the books and accounts to be audited annually
and reported upon not later than 180 days after the end of each Fiscal Year by an
Independent Auditor and will provide copies of the audit report to the holders of any of
the Notes and Parity Obligations upon request. The holders of any of the Notes and
-25-
Parity Obligations shall have at all reasonable times the right to inspect the System and
the records, accounts and data of the Issuer relating thereto.
(e) State Laws. The Issuer will faithfully and punctually perform all duties
with reference to the System required by the Constitution and laws of the State of Iowa,
including the making and collecting of reasonable and sufficient rates for services
rendered by the System as above provided, and will segregate the revenues of the System
and apply the revenues to the funds specified in this Resolution.
(f) Property. The Issuer will not sell, lease, mortgage or in any manner
dispose of the System, or any capital part thereof, including any and all extensions and
additions that may be made thereto, until satisfaction and discharge of all of the Notes
and Parity Obligations shall have been provided for in the maturer provided in this
Resolution; provided, however, that this covenant shall not be construed to prevent the
disposal by the Issuer of property which in the judgment of its Governing Body has
become inexpedient or unprofitable to use in connection with the System, or if it is to the
advantage of the System that other property of equal or higher value be substituted
therefor, and provided further that the proceeds of the disposition of such property shall
be placed in a revolving fund to be used in preference to other sources for capital
improvements to the System. Any such proceeds of the disposition of property acquired
with the proceeds of the Notes or Parity Obligations shall not be used to pay principal or
interest on the Notes or Parity Obligations or for payments into the Sinking or Reserve
Fund.
(g) Fidelity Bond. The Issuer shall maintain fidelity bond coverage in
amounts which normally would be carried by private companies engaged in a similar
kind of business on each officer or employee having custody of funds of the System.
(h) Additional Charges. The Issuer will require proper connecting charges
and/or other security for the payment of service charges.
(i) Budget. The Governing Body of the Issuer shall approve and conduct
operations pursuant to a system budget of revenues and current expenses for each Fiscal
Year. Such budget shall take into account revenues and current expenses during the
current and last preceding Fiscal Year. Copies of such budget and any amendments
thereto shall be provided to the holders of any of the Notes upon request.
Section 21. Remedies of Noteholders. Except as herein expressly limited the holder or
holders of the Notes and Parity Obligations shall have and possess all the rights of action and
remedies afforded by the common law, the Constitution and statutes of the State of Iowa, and of
the United States of America, for the enforcement of payment of their Notes and interest thereon,
and of the pledge of the revenues made hereunder, and of all covenants of the Issuer hereunder.
Section 22. Prior Lien and Parity Obligations. The Issuer will issue no other notes,
bonds or obligations of any kind or nature payable from or enjoying a lien or claim on the
property or revenues of the System having priority over the Notes or Parity Obligations.
-26-
Additional Obligations may be issued on a parity and equality of rank with the Notes
with respect to the lien and claim of such Additional Obligations to the revenues of the System
and the money on deposit in the funds adopted by this Resolution, for the following purposes and
under the following conditions, but not otherwise:
(a) For the purpose of refunding any of the Notes or Parity Obligations which shall
have matured or which shall mature not later than three months after the date of delivery
of such refunding obligation and for the payment of which there shall be insufficient
money in the Sinking Fund and the Reserve Fund;
(b) For the purpose of refunding any outstanding Notes, Parity Obligations or general
obligation notes or making extensions, additions, improvements or replacements to the
System, if all of the following conditions shall have been met:
(i) before any such Additional Obligations ranking on a parity
are issued, there will have been procured and filed with the City Clerk, a
statement of an Independent Auditor, independent financial consultant or a
consulting engineer, not a regular employee of the Issuer, reciting the
opinion based upon necessary investigations that the Net Revenues of the
System for the preceding Fiscal Year (with adjustments as hereinafter
provided) were equal to at least 1.25 times the maximum amount that will
be required in any Fiscal Year prior to the longest maturity of any of the
Notes or Parity Obligations for both principal of and interest on all Notes
and Parity Obligations then outstanding which are payable from the net
earnings of the System and the Additional Obligations then proposed to be
issued.
For the purpose of determining the Net Revenues of the System for the
preceding Fiscal Year as aforesaid, the amount of the gross revenues for
such year may be adjusted by an Independent Auditor, independent
financial consultant or a consulting engineer, not a regular employee of the
Issuer, so as to reflect any changes in the amount of such revenues which
would have resulted had any revision of the schedule of rates or charges
imposed at or prior to the time of the issuance of any such Additional
Obligations been in effect during all of such preceding Fiscal Year.
(ii) the Additional Obligations must be payable as to principal
and as to interest on the same month and day as the Notes herein
authorized.
(iii) for the purposes of this Section, principal and interest
falling due on the first day of a Fiscal Year shall be deemed a requirement
of the immediately preceding Fiscal Year.
-27-
(iv) for the purposes of this Section, general obligation bonds or
notes shall be refunded only upon a finding of necessity by the Governing
Body and only to the extent the general obligation bonds or notes were
issued or the proceeds thereof were expended for the System.
(v) for purposes of this Section, "preceding Fiscal Year" shall
be the most recently completed Fiscal Year for which audited financial
statements prepared by a certified public accountant are issued and
available, but in no event a Fiscal Year which ended more than eighteen
months prior to the date of issuance of Additional Obligations.
Section 23. Disposition of Proceeds; Arbitrage Not Permitted. The Issuer reasonably
expects and covenants that no use will be made of the proceeds from the issuance and sale of the
Notes issued hereunder which will cause any of the Notes to be classified as arbitrage bonds
within the meaning of Section 148(a) and (b) of the Internal Revenue Code of the United States,
and that throughout the term of the Notes it will comply with the requirements of such statute
and regulations issued thereunder.
To the best knowledge and belief of the Issuer, there are no facts or circumstances that
would materially change the foregoing statements or the conclusion that it is not expected that
the proceeds of the Notes will be used in a manner that would cause the Notes to be arbitrage
notes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer hereby agrees to comply with
the provisions of the Tax Exemption Certificate and the provisions of the Tax Exemption
Certificate are hereby incorporated by reference as part of this Resolution. The Treasurer is
hereby directed to make and insert all calculations and determinations necessary to complete the
Tax Exemption Certificate in all respects and to execute and deliver the Tax Exemption
Certificate at issuance of the Notes to certify as to the reasonable expectations and covenants of
the Issuer at that date.
The Issuer covenants that it will treat as Yield Restricted any proceeds of the Notes
remaining unexpended after three years from the issuance and any other funds required by the
Tax Exemption Certificate to be so treated. If any investments are held with respect to the Notes
and Parity Obligations, the Issuer shall treat the same for the purpose of restricted yield as held in
proportion to the original principal amounts of each issue.
The Issuer covenants that it will exceed any investment yield restriction provided in this
Resolution only in the event that it shall first obtain an opinion of recognized bond counsel that
the proposed investment action will not cause the Notes to be classified as arbitrage bonds under
Section 148(a) and (b) the Internal Revenue Code or regulations issued thereunder.
The Issuer covenants that it will proceed with due diligence to spend the proceeds of the
Notes for the purpose set forth in this Resolution. The Issuer further covenants that it will make
no change in the use of the proceeds available for the construction of facilities or change in the
use of any portion of the facilities constructed therefrom by persons other than the Issuer or the
general public unless it has obtained an opinion of bond counsel or a revenue ruling that the
proposed project or use will not be of such character as to cause interest on any of the Notes not
-28-
to be exempt from federal income taxes in the hands of holders other than substantial users of the
project, under the provisions of Section 142(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of the United
States, related statutes and regulations.
Section 24. Additional Covenants. Representations and Warranties of the Issuer. The
Issuer certifies and covenants with the purchasers and holders of the Notes from time to time
outstanding that the Issuer through its officers, (a) will make such further specific covenants,
representations and assurances as may be necessary or advisable; (b) comply with all
representations, covenants and assurances contained in the Tax Exemption Certificate, which
Tax Exemption Certificate shall constitute a part of the contract between the Issuer and the
owners of the Notes; (c) consult with bond counsel (as defined in the Tax Exemption
Certificate); (d) pay to the United States, as necessary, such sums of money representing required
rebates of excess arbitrage profits relating to the Notes; (e) file such forms, statements and
supporting documents as may be required and in a timely manner; and (f) if deemed necessary or
advisable by its officers, to employ and pay fiscal agents, financial advisors, attorneys and other
persons to assist the Issuer in such compliance.
Section 25. Discharge and Satisfaction of Notes. The covenants, liens and pledges
entered into, created or imposed pursuant to this Resolution may be fully discharged and
satisfied with respect to the Notes and Parity Obligations, or any of them, in any one or more of
the following ways:
(a) By paying the Notes or Parity Obligations when the same shall become due and
payable; and
(b) By depositing in trust with the Treasurer, or with a corporate trustee designated by
the Governing Body for the payment of the obligations and irrevocably appropriated
exclusively to that purpose an amount in cash or direct obligations of the United States
the maturities and income of which shall be sufficient to retire at maturity, or by
redemption prior to maturity on a designated date upon which the obligations may be
redeemed, all of such obligations outstanding at the time, together with the interest
thereon to maturity or to the designated redemption date, premiums thereon, if any, that
may be payable on the redemption of the same; provided that proper notice of redemption
of all such obligations to be redeemed shall have been previously published or provisions
shall have been made for such publication.
Upon such payment or deposit of money or securities, or both, in the amount and manner
provided by this Section, all liability of the Issuer with respect to the Notes or Parity Obligations
shall cease, determine and be completely discharged, and the holders thereof shall be entitled
only to payment out of the money or securities so deposited.
Section 26. Resolution a Contract. The provisions of this Resolution shall constitute a
contract between the Issuer and the holder or holders of the Notes and Parity Obligations, and
after the issuance of any of the Notes no change, variation or alteration of any kind in the
provisions of this Resolution shall be made in any manner, except as provided in the next
-99-
succeeding Section, until such time as all of the Notes and Parity Obligations, and interest due
thereon, shall have been satisfied and discharged as provided in this Resolution.
Section 27. Amendment of Resolution Without Consent. The Issuer may, without the
consent of or notice to any of the holders of the Notes and Parity Obligations, amend or
supplement this Resolution for any one or more of the following purposes:
(a) to cure any ambiguity, defect, omission or inconsistent provision in this
Resolution or in the Notes or Parity Obligations; or to comply with any application
provision of law or regulation of federal or state agencies; provided, however, that such
action shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Notes or

prevent the interest on the Notes or Parity Obligations from being includable within the
gross income of the holders thereof for federal income tax purposes;
(c) to grant to or confer upon the holders of the Notes or Parity Obligations any
additional rights, remedies, powers or authority that may lawfully be granted to or
conferred upon the holders of the Notes;

other covenants and agreements of, or conditions or restrictions upon, the Issuer or to

Resolution; or
(e) to subject to the lien and pledge of this Resolution additional pledged revenues as
may be permitted by law.

amended from time to time if such amendment shall have been consented to by holders of not
less than two-thirds in principal amount of the Notes and Parity Obligations at any time
outstanding (not including in any case any Notes which may then be held or owned by or for the
account of the Issuer, but including such refunding obligations as may have been issued for the
purpose of refunding any of such Notes if such refunding obligations shall not then be owned by
the Issuer); but this Resolution may not be so amended in such manner as to:
(a) Make any change in the maturity of interest rate of the Notes, or modify the terms
of payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or any of them or impose any
conditions with respect to such payment;
(b) Materially affect the rights of the holders of less than all of the Notes and Parity
Obligations then outstanding; and

two-thirds in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding as in this Section defined,
which instrument or instruments shall refer to the proposed amendatory Resolution described in
the notice and shall specifically consent to and approve the adoption thereof, thereupon, but not
otherwise, the Governing Body of the Issuer may adopt such amendatory Resolution and such

Sale Proceeds of $10,122,546.95 (par of $9,360,000 plus re -offering premium of
$762,546.95), less underwriter's discount of 521,051.76, received at Closing in the arnount of

to realize debt service savings due to lower interest rates payable on the Refunding Bonds.
Section 2.4 Facts Supporting Tax -Exemption Classification
Governmental Bonds
Private Business Use/Private Security or Payment Tests
The Bonds are considered to be governmental bonds, not subject to the provisions
of the alternate minimum tax. The Proceeds will be used for the purposes described in
Section 2.3 hereof. These bonds are not private activity bonds because no amount of
Proceeds of the Refunded Bonds were used in a trade or business carried on by a non-
governmental unit. Rather, the Proceeds will be used to finance the general government
operations and facilities of the Issuer described in Section 2.3 hereof. None of the
payment of principal or interest on the Bonds will be derived from, or secured by, money
or property used in a trade or business of a non-goverrnnental unit. In addition, none of
the governmental operations or facilities of the Issuer being financed with the Proceeds of
the Bonds are subject to any lease, management contract or other similar arrangement or
to any arrangement for use other than as by the general public.
Private Loan Financing Test
No amount of Proceeds of the Refunded Bonds were used directly or indirectly to
make or finance loans to persons other than governmental units.
Refunding of Govermnental or Private Activity Exempt Facility Bonds (where Refunded Bonds
must meet requirements)
The Issuer will use the Proceeds of the Bonds to refund the Refunded Bonds. The Issuer
has complied with the covenants and restrictions with respect to arbitrage and investment
requirements, yield restrictions, and post -closing restrictions on reissuance, reimbursement and
change in use imposed by the Code and Regulations on the Refunded Bonds since the issue date
of the Refunded Bonds so as to maintain the tax-exempt status of the interest on the Refunded
Bonds. The Issuer will comply with all certifications set forth in Article VIII herein.
The Issuer has complied with and will continue to comply with all rebate requirements
applicable to the Refunded Bonds.
Section 2.5 Facts Supporting Temporary Periods for Proceeds
(a) Time Test. Not later than six months after the Closing Date, the Issuer
will incur a substantial binding obligation to a third party to expend at least 5% of the net
Sale Proceeds of the Bonds.
(b) Expenditure Test. Not less than 85% of the net Sale Proceeds will be
expended for Project costs, including the reimbursement of other funds expended to date,
within a three-year temporary period from the Closing Date.
(c) Due Diligence Test. The Issuer has incurred a substantial binding
obligation to accomplish the refunding. The refunding will proceed with due diligence to
completion.
(d) Proceeds of the Bonds representing less than six months accrued interest
on the Bonds will be spent within six months of this date to pay interest on the Bonds,
and will be invested without restriction as to yield for a temporary period not in excess of
six months.
Section 2.6 Resolution Funds at Restricted or Unrestricted Yield
(a) Proceeds of the Bonds will be held and accounted for in the manner
provided in the Resolution. The Issuer has not and does not expect to create or establish
any other bond fund, reserve fund, or similar fund or account for the Bonds. The Issuer
has not and will not pledge any moneys or Taxable Obligations in order to pay debt
service on the Bonds or restrict the use of such moneys or Taxable Obligations so as to
give reasonable assurances of their availability for such purposes.
(b) Any monies which are invested beyond a temporary period are expected to
constitute less than a major portion of the Bonds or to be restricted for investment at a
yield not Beater than one-eighth of one percent above the Bond Yield.
(c) The Issuer has established and will use the Bond Fund primarily to
achieve a proper matching of revenues and debt service within each Bond Year and the
Issuer will apply moneys deposited into the Bond Fund to pay the principal of and
interest on the Bonds. Such Fund will be depleted at least once each Bond Year except
for a reasonable carryover amount. The carryover amount will not exceed the greater of
(1) one year's earnings on the Bond Fund or (2) one -twelfth of Annual Debt Service. The
Issuer will spend moneys deposited from time to time into such fund within 13 months
after the date of deposit. Revenues, intended to be used to pay debt service on the Bonds,
will be deposited into the Bond Fund as set forth in the Resolution. The Issuer will spend
interest earned on moneys in such fund not more than 12 months after receipt.
Accordingly, the Issuer will treat the Bond Fund as a bona fide debt service fund as
defined in Regulation 1.148-1(b).
Investment of amounts on deposit in the Bond Fund will not be subject to arbitrage rebate
requirements as the Bonds meet the safe harbor set forth in Regulation 1.148-3(k), because the
average annual debt service on the Bonds will not exceed $2,500,000.
(d) The Minor Portion of the Bonds will be invested without regard to yield.
(e) A Reserve Fund is established to secure the Bonds, however, the Issuer
does not expect that principal of or interest on the Bonds will be paid from the Reserve
Fund. Monies in the Reserve Fund will not be accumulated except to a reasonable extent.
Within one year of receipt, earnings upon the investment of the Reserve Fund monies
will be commingled with other revenues from the operations of the Issuer which are
substantial in amount for accounting and expenditure.
(f) The amounts on deposit in the Reserve Fund will at all times be equal to
or less than the Allowable Reserve Fund Amount. However, if the amount in the Reserve
Fund exceeds the Allowable Reserve Fund Amount, such excess must be invested at a
yield no higher than the Bond Yield or will be invested in Tax Exempt Obligations.
(g) For purposes of Subsections (e) and (f), the following terms shall have the
meanings set forth below:
(1) "Allowable Reserve Fund Amount" as described in Regulation
1.148-2(f)(2) means an amount equal to the lesser of (10)percent of the stated
principal amount of the Bonds, the maximum annual principal and interest
coming due on the Bonds, or 125% of the average annual principal and interest
coming due on the Bonds. The Allowable Reserve Fund Amount is computed to
be $1,012,255.
9
(2) "Reserve Fund" means that portion of the Revenue Fund as
described in the Resolution.
(h) The Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund are funds which either (a) are
reasonably expected to be used to pay debt service on the Bonds and Parity Bonds, or (b)
are pledged to the payment of debt service on the Parity Bonds should other sources
prove insufficient. The Bond Fund is a "sinking fund" as defined in Regulation 1.148-
1(c)(2). The Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund apply to two or more issues, and each
fund in the aggregate shall be referred to as a "Commingled Fund". Each Commingled
Fund shall be allocated among the various issues of Bonds and Parity Bonds according to
the methods described below.
(i) For purposes of Subsection (h), the following terms shall have the
meanings set forth below:
(1) 'Bond Fund Allocation Factor" shall be determined by dividing the
original face amount of the Bonds, $9,360,000, by the sum of the original face
amounts of all outstanding Parity Bonds.
(2) 'Parity Bonds" means the Bonds, and all other outstanding bonds
of the Issuer ranking on a parity with the Bonds as set forth in the Resolution.
(3) "Reserve Fund Allocation Factor" shall be determined by dividing
the original principal amount of the Bonds, 59,360,000 by the sum of the original
face amounts of all outstanding Parity Bonds.
A portion of the investments in each Commingled Fund and earnings thereon shall be
allocated to the Bonds by applying a certain percentage (the "Series 2016C Share") of the market
value of the investments in the applicable Commingled Fund. Each time an issue of Parity
Bonds is no longer outstanding and each time additional Parity Bonds are issued, the Issuer shall
calculate the Series 2016C Share for the Bond Fund and Reserve Fund. The Series 2016C Share
is determined for each Commingled Fund by applying the Bond Fund Allocation Factor and the
Reserve Fund Allocation Factor, as applicable. Each time it shall be necessary to determine the
earnings on the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund, the Issuer shall multiply the earnings for the
applicable Commingled Fund by the applicable Series 2016C Share. The Issuer may, at any
time, use any other allocation method for the Reserve Fund or the Bond Fund allowed by
Regulation 1.148-6(e)(6).
Section 2.7 Pertaining to Yields
(a) The purchase price of all Taxable Obligations to which restrictions apply
under this Certificate as to investment yield or rebate of Excess Earnings, if any, has been
and shall be calculated using (i) the price taking into account discount, premium and
accrued interest, as applicable, actually paid or (ii) the fair market value if less than the
price actually paid and if such Taxable Obligations were not purchased directly from the
United States Treasury. The Issuer will acquire all such Taxable Obligations directly
from the United States Treasury or in an arm's length transaction without regard to any
amounts paid to reduce the yield on such Taxable Obligations. The Issuer will not pay or
10
permit the payment of any amounts (other than to the United States) to reduce the yield
on any Taxable Obligations. Obligations pledged to the payment of debt service on the
Bonds, or deposited into any reserve fund after they have been acquired by the Issuer will
be treated as though they were acquired for their fair market value on the date of such
pledge or deposit. Obligations on deposit in any reserve fund on the Closing Date shall
be treated as if acquired for their fair market value on the Closing Date.
(b) Qualified guarantees have not been used in computing yield.
(c) The Bond Yield has been computed as not less than
percent. This Bond Yield has been computed on the basis of a purchase price for the
Bonds equal to the Issue Price.
ARTICLE III

Section 3.1 Records
Sale Proceeds of the Bonds will be held and accounted for in the manner provided in the

this Certificate including all deposits, withdrawals, transfers from, transfers to, investments,
reinvestments, sales, purchases, redemptions, liquidations and use of money or obligations until
six years after the Final Bond Retirement Date.
Section 3.2 Rebate Fund
(a) In the Resolution, the Issuer has covenanted to pay to the United States the
Rebate Amount, an amount equal to the Excess Earnings on the Gross Proceeds Funds, if
any, at the times and in the manner required or permitted and subject to stated special
rules and allowable exceptions.
(b) The Issuer may establish a fund pursuant to the Resolution and this
Certificate which is herein referred to as the Rebate Fund. The Issuer will invest and
expend amounts on deposit in the Rebate Fund in accordance with this Certificate.

subject to Sections 3.4, 3.5 and 6.1 hereof, shall be held for future payment to the United

part of the trust estate held for the benefit of the owners of the Bonds or the Issuer.
(d) The Issuer will pay to the United States from legally available money of
the Issuer (whether or not such available money is on deposit in any fund or account
related to the Bonds) any amount which is required to be paid to the United States.
11
Section 3.3 Exceptions to Rebate
The Issuer reasonably expects that the Bonds are eligible for one or more exceptions from
the arbitrage rebate rules set forth in the Regulations. If any Proceeds are ineligible, or become
ineligible, for an exception to the arbitrage rebate rules, the Issuer will comply with the
provisions of this Article III. A description of the applicable rebate exceptions is as follows:
Six Month Exception
The Gross Proceeds of the Bonds are expected to be fully expended for the goverrrrnental
purposes for which the Bonds were issued no later than six months after the date of issue. If
contrary to the reasonable expectations of the lssuer, the Gross Proceeds are not expended within
six months, the Issuer will comply with the arbitrage rebate requirements of the Code.
Election with respect to Reserve Fund earnings.
The Issuer elects pursuant to Code Section 148(f)(4)(C)(vi)(IV) to exclude earnings on
the Reserve Fund from ACP and to comply with the rebate requirements from the Closing Date.
If the Issuer fails to meet the foregoing expenditure schedule, the Issuer shall comply
with the arbitrage rebate requirements of the Code.
Section 3.4 Calculation of Rebate Amount
(a) As soon after each Computation Date as practicable, the Issuer shall, if
necessary, calculate and determine the Excess Earnings on the Gross Proceeds Funds (the
"Rebate Amount"). All calculations and determinations with respect to the Rebate
Amount will be made on the basis of actual facts as of the Computation Date and
reasonable expectations as to future events.
(b) If the Rebate Amount exceeds the amount currently on deposit in the
Rebate Fund, the Issuer may deposit an amount in the Rebate Fund such that the balance
in the Rebate Fund after such deposit equals the Rebate Amount. If the amount in the
Rebate Fund exceeds the Rebate Amount, the Issuer may withdraw such excess amount
provided that such withdrawal can be made from amounts originally transferred to the
Rebate Fund and not from earrings thereon, which may not be transferred, and only if
such withdrawal may be made without liquidating investments at a loss.
Section 3.5 Rebate Requirements and the Bond Fund
It is expected that the Bond Fund described in the Resolution and Section 2.6(c) of this
Certificate will be treated as a bona fide debt service fund as defined in Regulation 1.148-1(b).
As such, any amount earned during a Bond Year on the Bond Fund and amounts earned on such
amounts, if allocated to the Bond Fund, will not be taken into account in calculating the Rebate
Amount if the annual gross earnings on the Bond Fund for such Bond Year are less than
$100,000 or if average annual debt service will not exceed $2,500,000. However, should annual
gross earnings exceed $100,000 or should the Bond Fund cease to be treated as a bona fide debt
12
service fund, the Bond Fund will become subject to the rebate requirements set forth in Section
3.4 hereof.
Section 3.6 Investment of the Rebate Fund
(a) Immediately upon a transfer to the Rebate Fund, the Issuer may invest all
amounts in the Rebate Fund not already invested and held in the Rebate Fund, to the
extent possible, in (1) SLGS, such investments to be made at a yield of not more than
one-eighth of one percent above the Bond Yield, (2) Tax Exempt Obligations, (3) direct
obligations of the United States or (4) certificates of deposit of any bank or savings and
loan association. All investments in the Rebate Fund shall be made to mature not later
than the next Rebate Payment Date.
(b) if the Issuer invests in SLGS, the issuer shall file timely subscription
forms for such securities (if required). To the extent possible, amounts received from
maturing SLGS shall be reinvested immediately in zero yield SLGS maturing on or
before the next Rebate Payment Date.
Section 3.7 Payment to the United States
(a) On each Rebate Payment Date, the Issuer will pay to the United States at
least ninety percent (90%) of the Rebate Amount less a computation credit of S1,000 per
Bond Year for which the payment is made.
(b) The Issuer will pay to the United States not later than sixty (60) days after
the Final Bond Retirement Date all the rebatable arbitrage as of such date and any income
attributable to such rebatable arbitrage as described in Regulation 1.148-3(f)(2).
(c) If necessary, on each Rebate Payment Date, the Issuer will mail a check to
the Internal Revenue Service Center, Ogden, UT 84201. Each payment shall be
accompanied by a copy of Form 8038-T, Arbitrage Rebate, filed with respect to the
Bonds or other information reporting form as is required to comply with the Code and
applicable Regulations.
Section 3.8 Records
(a) The Issuer will keep and retain adequate records with respect to the
Bonds, the Gross Proceeds Funds, the Bond Fund, the Reserve Fund, and the Rebate
Fund until six years after the Final Bond Retirement Date. Such records shall include

Certificate. Such records will also show all amounts earned on moneys invested in such
funds, and the actual dates and amounts of all principal, interest and redemption
premiums (if any) paid on the Bonds.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS
Section 4.1 Avoidance of Prohibited Pavments
The Issuer will not enter into any transaction that reduces the amount required to be
deposited into the Rebate Fund or paid to the United States because such transaction results in a
smaller profit or a larger loss than would have resulted if the transaction had been at arm's length
and had the Bond Yield not been relevant to either party. The Issuer will not invest or direct the
investment of any funds in a manner which reduces an amount required to be paid to the United
States because such transaction results in a small profit or larger loss than would have resulted if
the transaction had been at arm's length and had the Bond Yield not been relevant to the Issuer.
In particular, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Resolution, the
Issuer will not invest or direct the investment of any funds in a manner which would violate any
provision of this Article 1V.
Section 4.2 Market Price Requirement
(a) The Issuer will not purchase or direct the purchase of Taxable Obligations
for more than the then available market price for such Taxable Obligations. The Issuer
will not sell, liquidate or direct the sale or liquidation of Taxable Obligations for less than
the then available market price.

purchased directly from the United States Treasury will be deemed to be purchased at the
market price.

Section 4.3 Investment in Certificates of Deposit
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the
Resolution, the Issuer will invest or direct the investment of funds on deposit in the
Reserve Fund, any other Gross Proceeds Fund, the Bond Fund, and the Rebate Fund, in a
certificate of deposit of a bank or savings bank which is pemritted by law and by the
Resolution only if the purchase price of such a certificate of deposit is treated as its fair
market value on the purchase date and if the yield on the certificate of deposit is not less
than (1) the yield on reasonably comparable direct obligations of the United States; and
(2) the highest yield that is published or posted by the provider to be currently available
from the provider on reasonably comparable certificates of deposit offered to the public.
(b) The certificate of deposit described in paragraph 4.3(a) above must be
executed by a dealer who maintains an active secondary market in comparable
certificates of deposit and must be based on actual trades adjusted to reflect the size and
term of that certificate of deposit and the stability and reputation of the bank or savings
bank issuing the certificate of deposit.
Section 4.4 Investment Pursuant to Investment Contracts and Agreements
The Issuer will invest or direct the investment of funds on deposit in the Gross Proceeds
Funds, the Bond Fund, and the Rebate Fund pursuant to an investment contract (including a
repurchase agreement) only if all of the following requirements are satisfied:
(a) The Issuer makes a bona fide solicitation for the purchase of the
investment. A bona fide solicitation is a solicitation that satisfies all of the following
requirements:
(1) The bid specifications are in writing and are timely forwarded to
potential providers.
(2) The bid specifications include all material terns of the bid. A tern
is material if it may directly or indirectly affect the yield or the cost of the
investment.
(3) The bid specifications include a statement notifying potential
providers that submission of a bid is a representation that the potential provider-
did
roviderdid not consult with any other potential provider about its bid, that the bid was
determined without regard to any other fomral or informal agreement that the
potential provider has with the issuer or any other person (whether or not in
connection with the Bonds), and that the bid is not being submitted solely as a
courtesy to the issuer or any other person for purposes of satisfying the
requirements of paragraph (d)(6)(iii)(B)(1) or (2) of Section 1.148-5 of the
Regulations.
(4) The terns of the bid specifications are commercially reasonable.
A tern is commercially reasonable if there is a legitimate business purpose for the
15
terni other than to increase the purchase price or reduce the yield of the
investment.
(5) For purchases of guaranteed investment contracts only, the terms
of the solicitation take into account the issuer's reasonably expected deposit and
drawdown schedule for the amounts to be invested.
(6) All potential providers have an equal opportunity to bid and no
potential provider is given the opportunity to review other bids (i.e., a last look)
before providing a bid.
(7) At least three reasonably competitive providers are solicited for
bids. A reasonably competitive provider is a provider that has an established
industry reputation as a competitive provider of the type of investments being

Issuer solicited under a bona fide solicitation meeting the requirements of
paragraph (d)(6)(iii)(A) of Section 1.148-5 of the Regulations and that do not
have a material financial interest in the issue. A lead underwriter in a negotiated
underwriting transaction is deemed to have a material financial interest in the
issue until 15 days after the issue date of the issue. In addition, any entity acting
as a financial advisor with respect to the purchase of the investment at the time
the bid specifications are forwarded to potential providers has a material financial
interest in the issue. A provider that is a related party to a provider that has a
material financial interest in the issue is deemed to have a material financial
interest in the issue.
(2) At least one of the three bids described in paragraph
(d)(6)(iii)(B)(1) of Section 1.148-5 of the Regulations is from a reasonably
competitive provider, within the meaning of paragraph (d)(6)(iii)(A)(7) of Section
1.148-5 of the Regulations.
(3) If the Issuer uses an agent to conduct the bidding process, the agent
did not bid to provide the investment.
(c) The winning bid meets the following requirements:
(1) Guaranteed investment contracts. If the investment is a guaranteed
investment contract, the winning bid is the highest yielding bona fide bid
(determined net of any broker's fees).
(2) Other investments. If the investment is not a guaranteed
investment contract, the winning bid is the lowest cost bona fide bid (including
any broker's fees).
16
(d) The provider of the investments or the obligor on the guaranteed
investment contract certifies the administrative costs that it pays (or expects to pay, if
any) to third parties in connection with supplying the investment.
(e) The Issuer will retain the following records with the bond documents until
three years after the last outstanding bond is redeemed:
(1) For purchases of guaranteed investment contracts, a copy of the
contract, and for purchases of investments other than guaranteed investment
contracts, the purchase agreement or confirmation.
(2) The receipt or other record of the amount actually paid by the
Issuer for the investments, including a record of any administrative costs paid by
the Issuer, and the certification under paragraph (d)('6)(lii)(D) of Section 1.148-5
of the Regulations.
(3) For each bid that is submitted, the name of the person and entity
submitting the bid, the time and date of the bid, and the bid results.

reinvestments, redemptions, disbursements, deposits, and transfers of amounts on deposit.
Section 4.6 Investments to be Legal
All investments required to be made pursuant to this Certificate shall be made to the
extent permitted by law. In the event that any such investment is determined to be ultra vires, it
shall be liquidated and the proceeds thereof shall be invested in a legal investment, provided that
prior to reinvesting such proceeds, the Issuer shall obtain an opinion of Bond Counsel to the
effect that such reinvestment will not cause the Bonds to become arbitrage bonds under Sections
103, 148, 149, or any other applicable provision of the Code.

Section 7. Issuance of Notes in Book -Entry Form; Replacement Notes.
(a) Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Resolution regarding registration,
ownership, transfer, payment and exchange of the Notes, unless the Issuer determines to permit
the exchange of Depository Notes for Notes in the Authorized Denominations, the Notes shall be
issued as Depository Notes in denominations of the entire principal amount of each maturity of
Notes (or, if a portion of the principal amount is prepaid, the principal amount less the prepaid
amount); and such Depository Notes shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee
of DTC. Payment of semi-annual interest for any Depository Note shall be made by wire transfer
or New York Clearing House or equivalent next day funds to the account of Cede & Co. on the
interest payment date for the Notes at the address indicated in or pursuant to the Representation
Letter.
(b) With respect to Depository Notes, neither the Issuer nor the Paying Agent shall
have any responsibility or obligation to any Participant or to any Beneficial Owner. Without
limiting the immediately preceding sentence, neither the Issuer nor the Paying Agent shall have
any responsibility or obligation with respect to (i) the accuracy of the records of DTC or its
nominee or of any Participant with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes, (ii) the
delivery to any Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any other person, other than DTC or its
nominee, of any notice with respect to the Notes, (iii) the payment to any Participant, any
Beneficial Owner or any other person, other than DTC or its nominee, of any amount with
respect to the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, or (iv) the failure of DTC to
provide any information or notification on behalf of any Participant or Beneficial Owner.
The Issuer and the Paying Agent may treat DTC or its nominee as, and deem DTC or its
nominee to be, the absolute owner of each Note for the purpose of payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on such Note, for the purpose of all other matters with respect to
such Note, for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to such Notes, and for all other
purposes whatsoever (except for the giving of certain Noteholder consents, in accordance with
the practices and procedures of DTC as may be applicable thereto). The Paying Agent shall pay
all principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes only to or upon the order of the
noteholders as shown on the Registration Books, and all such payments shall be valid and
effective to fully satisfy and discharge the Issuer's obligations with respect to the principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on the Notes to the extent so paid. Notwithstanding the provisions
of this Resolution to the contrary (including without limitation those provisions relating to the
surrender of Notes, registration thereof, and issuance in Authorized Denominations), as long as
the Notes are Depository Notes, full effect shall be given to the Representation Letter and the
procedures and practices of DTC thereunder, and the Paying Agent shall comply therewith.
(c) Upon (i) a determination by the Issuer that DTC is no longer able to cavy out its
functions or is otherwise determined unsatisfactory, or (ii) a determination by DTC that the
Notes are no longer eligible for its depository services or (iii) a determination by the Paying
Agent that DTC has resigned or discontinued its services for the Notes, if such substitution is
authorized by law, the Issuer shall (A) designate a satisfactory substitute depository as set forth
below or, if a satisfactory substitute is not found, (B) provide for the exchange of Depository
Notes for replacement Notes in Authorized Denominations.
-12-
(d) To the extent authorized by law, if the Issuer determines to provide for the
exchange of Depository Notes for Notes in Authorized Denominations, the Issuer shall so notify
the Paying Agent and shall provide the Registrar with a supply of executed unauthenticated
Notes to be so exchanged. The Registrar shall thereupon notify the owners of the Notes and
provide for such exchange, and to the extent that the Beneficial Owners are designated as the
transferee by the owners, the Notes will be delivered in appropriate form, content and Authorized
Denominations to the Beneficial Owners, as their interests appear.
(e) Any substitute depository shall be designated in writing by the Issuer to the
Paying Agent. Any such substitute depository shall be a qualified and registered "clearing
agency" as provided in Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The
substitute depository shall provide for (i) immobilization of the Depository Notes, (ii)
registration and transfer of interests in Depository Notes by book entries made on records of the
depository or its nominee and (iii) payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Notes in accordance with and as such interests may appear with respect to such book entries.

Delivery; and Cancellation.
(a) Registration. The ownership of Notes may be transferred only by the making of
an entry upon the books kept for the registration and transfer of ownership of the Notes,

agreement with the Issuer filed herewith which is made a part hereof by this reference.
Registrar shall maintain the books of the Issuer for the registration of ownership of the

to the Registrar, along with the address and social security number or federal employer
identification number of such transferee (or, if registration is to be made in the name of
multiple individuals, of all such transferees). In the event that the address of the
registered owner of a Note (other than a registered owner which is the nominee of the
broker or dealer in question) is that of a broker or dealer, there must be disclosed on the
Registration Books the information pertaining to the registered owner required above.
Upon the transfer of any such Note, a new fully registered Note, of any denomination or

such Note, including the interest thereon, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(e) Cancellation. All Notes which have been redeemed shall not be reissued but shall
be cancelled by the Registrar. All Notes which are cancelled by the Registrar shall be
destroyed and a Certificate of the destruction thereof shall be furnished promptly to the
Issuer; provided that if the Issuer shall so direct, the Registrar shall forward the cancelled
Notes to the Issuer.
(f) Non -Presentment of Notes. In the event any payment check representing payment
of principal of or interest on the Notes is returned to the Paying Agent or if any note is
not presented for payment of principal at the maturity or redemption date, if funds
sufficient to pay such principal of or interest on Notes shall have been made available to
the Paying Agent for the benefit of the owner thereof, all liability of the Issuer to the
owner thereof for such interest or payment of such Notes shall forthwith cease, terminate
and be completely discharged, and thereupon it shall be the duty of the Paying Agent to
hold such funds, without liability for interest thereon, for the benefit of the owner of such
Notes who shall thereafter be restricted exclusively to such funds for any claim of
whatever nature on his part under this Resolution or on, or with respect to, such interest
or Notes. The Paying Agent's obligation to hold such funds shall continue for a period
equal to two years and six months following the date on which such interest or principal
became due, whether at maturity, or at the date fixed for redemption thereof, or
otherwise, at which time the Paying Agent, shall surrender any remaining funds so held
to the Issuer, whereupon any claim under this Resolution by the Owners of such interest
or Notes of whatever nature shall be made upon the Issuer.
(g) Registration and Transfer Fees. The Registrar may furnish to each owner, at the
Issuer's expense, one note for each annual maturity. The Registrar shall furnish
additional Notes in lesser denominations (but not less than the minimum denomination)
to an owner who so requests.

reasonable regulations as the Issuer or its agent may prescribe and paying such expenses as the
Issuer may incur in connection therewith.
Section 10. Record Date. Payments of principal and interest, otherwise than upon full
redemption, made in respect of any Notes, shall be made to the registered holder thereof or to
their designated Agent as the same appear on the books of the Registrar on the 15th day of the
month preceding the payment date. All such payments shall fully discharge the obligations of
the Issuer in respect of such Notes to the extent of the payments so made. Payment of principal
shall only be made upon surrender of the Notes to the Paying Agent.
Section 11. Execution. Authentication and Delivery of the Notes. Upon the adoption of
this Resolution, the Mayor and Clerk shall execute and deliver the Notes to the Registrar, who

way uses or is served by the System. So long as the Notes are outstanding and unpaid the rates
-22-
or charges to consumers of services of the System shall be sufficient in each year for the
payment of the proper and reasonable expenses of operation and maintenance of the System and
for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes and Parity Notes and obligations as the
same fall due, and to provide for the creation of reserves as hereinafter provided.
Any revenues paid and collected for the use of the System and its services by the Issuer
or any department, agency or instrumentality of the Issuer shall be used and accounted for in the
same manner as any other revenues derived from the operations of the System.
Section 17. Application of Revenues. From and after the delivery of any Notes, and as long as
any of the Notes or Parity Obligations shall be outstanding and unpaid either as to principal or as
to interest, or until all of the Notes and Parity Obligations then outstanding shall have been
discharged and satisfied in the manner provided in this Resolution, the entire income and
revenues of the System shall be deposited as collected in a fund to be known as the Water
Revenue Fund (the "Revenue Fund"), and shall be disbursed only as follows:
(a) Operation and Maintenance Fund. Money in the Revenue Fund shall first
be disbursed to make deposits into a separate and special fund to pay current expenses.
The fund shall be known as the Water Revenue Operation and Maintenance Fund (the
"Operation and Maintenance Fund"). There shall be deposited in the Operation and
Maintenance Fund each month an amount sufficient to meet the current expenses of the
month plus an amount equal to 1/12th of expenses payable on an annual basis such as
insurance. After the first day of the month, further deposits may be made to this account
from the Revenue Fund to the extent necessary to pay current expenses accrued and
payable to the extent that funds are not available in the Surplus Fund.
(b) Sinking Fund. Money in the Revenue Fund shall next be disbursed to
make deposits into a separate and special fund to pay the principal and interest
requirements of the Fiscal Year on the Notes and Parity Obligations. The fund shall be
known as the Water Revenue Note and Interest Sinking Fund (the "Sinking Fund"). The
required amount to be deposited in the Sinking Fund in any month shall be the equal
monthly amount necessary to pay in full the installment of interest coming due on the
next interest payment date on the then outstanding Notes and Parity Obligations, plus the
equal monthly amount necessary to pay in full the installment of principal coming due on
such Notes on the next succeeding principal payment date until the full amount of such
installment is on hand. If for any reason the amount on hand in the Sinking Fund exceeds
the required amount, the excess shall forthwith be withdrawn and paid into the Revenue
Fund. Money in the Sinking Fund shall be used solely for the purpose of paying principal
of and interest on the Notes and Parity Obligations as the same shall become due and
payable.
(c) Reserve Fund. Money in the Revenue Fund shall be disbursed to maintain
a debt service reserve in an amount equal to the Reserve Fund Requirement. Such fund
shall be known as the Water Revenue Debt Service Reserve Fund (the "Reserve Fund").
In each month there shall be deposited in the Reserve Fund an amount equal to 25 percent
of the amount required by this Resolution to be deposited in such month in the Sinking
-23-
Fund; provided, however, that when the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund shall be
not less than the Reserve Fund Requirement, no further deposits shall be made into the
Reserve Fund except to maintain such level, and when the amount on deposit in the
Reserve Fund is greater than the balance required above, such additional amounts shall be
withdrawn and paid into the Revenue Fund. Money in the Reserve Fund shall be used
solely for the purpose of paying principal at maturity of or interest on the Notes and
Parity Obligations for the payment of which insufficient money shall be available in the
Sinking Fund. Whenever it shall become necessary to so use money in the Reserve Fund,
the payments required above shall be continued or resumed until it shall have been
restored to the required minimum amount.
(d) Subordinate Obligations. Money in the Revenue Fund may next be used
to pay principal of and interest on (including reasonable reserves therefor) any other
obligations which by their terms shall be payable from the revenues of the System, but
subordinate to the Notes and Panty Obligations, and which have been issued for the
purposes of extensions and improvements to the System or to retire the Notes or Panty
Obligations in advance of maturity, or to pay for extraordinary repairs or replacements to
the System.
(e) Surplus Revenue. All money thereafter remaining in the Revenue Fund at
the close of each month may be deposited in any of the funds created by this Resolution,
to pay for extraordinary repairs or replacements to the System, or may be used to pay or
redeem the Notes or Parity Obligations, any of them, or for any lawful purpose.
Money in the Revenue Fund shall be allotted and paid into the various funds and
accounts hereinbefore referred to in the order in which the funds are listed, on a cumulative basis
on the 10th day of each month, or on the next succeeding business day when the 10th shall not be
a business day; and if in any month the money in the Revenue Fund shall be insufficient to
deposit or transfer the required amount in any of the funds or accounts, the deficiency shall be
made up in the following month or months after payments into all funds and accounts enjoying a
prior claim to the revenues shall have been met in full. The provisions of this Section shall not
be construed to require the Issuer to maintain separate bank accounts for the funds created by this
Section; except the Sinking Fund and the Reserve Fund shall be maintained in a separate account
but may be invested in conjunction with other funds of the City but designated as a trust fund on
the books and records of the City.
Section 18. Outstanding Obligations. Nothing in this Resolution shall be construed to
impair the rights vested in the Outstanding Obligations. The amounts herein required to be paid
into the various funds named in this Resolution shall be inclusive of payments required in respect
to the Outstanding Obligations. The provisions of the resolution or resolutions referred to in
Section I of this Resolution and the provisions of this Resolution are to be construed wherever
possible so that the same will not be in conflict. In the event such construction is not possible,
the provisions of the resolution first adopted shall prevail until such time as the Notes authorized
by the resolution have been paid in full or otherwise satisfied as therein provided at which time
the provisions of this Resolution shall again prevail.
-24-
Section 19. Investments. All of the funds provided by this Resolution may be invested
only in Permitted Investments or deposited in financial institutions which are members of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or its equivalent successor, and the deposits in which are
insured thereby and all such deposits exceeding the maximum amount insured from time to time
by FDIC or its equivalent successor in any one financial institution shall be continuously secured
in compliance with Chapter 12C of the Code of Iowa, 2015, as amended, or otherwise by a valid
pledge of direct obligations of the United States Government having an equivalent market value.
All such interim investments shall mature before the date on which the moneys are required for
the purposes for which the fund was created or otherwise as herein provided but in no event
maturing in more than three years in the case of the Reserve Fund.
All income derived from such investments shall be deposited in the Revenue Fund and
shall be regarded as revenues of the System. Investments shall at any time necessary be
liquidated and the proceeds thereof applied to the purpose for which the respective fund was
created.
Section 20. Covenants Regarding the Operation of the System. The Issuer hereby
covenants and agrees with each and every holder of the Notes and Panty Obligations:
(a) Maintenance and Efficiency. The Issuer will maintain the System in good
condition and operate it in an efficient manner and at reasonable cost.
(b) Sufficiency of Rates. On or before the beginning of each Fiscal Year the
Governing Body will adopt or continue in effect rates for all services rendered by the
System determined to be sufficient to produce Net Revenues for the next succeeding
Fiscal Year adequate to pay principal and interest requirements and create reserves as
provided in this Resolution but not less than 110 percent of the principal and interest
requirements of the Fiscal Year. No free use of the System by the Issuer or any
department, agency or instrumentality of the Issuer shall be permitted except upon the
determination of the Governing Body that the rates and charges otherwise in effect are
sufficient to provide Net Revenues at least equal to the requirements of this subsection.
(c) Insurance. That the Issuer shall maintain insurance for the benefit of the
Noteholders on the insurable portions of the System of a kind and in an amount which
normally would be carried by private companies engaged in a similar kind of business.
The proceeds of any insurance, except public liability insurance, shall be used to repair or
replace the part or parts of the System damaged or destroyed, or if not so used shall be

Additional Obligations may be issued on a parity and equality of rank with the Notes
with respect to the lien and claim of such Additional Obligations to the revenues of the System
and the money on deposit in the funds adopted by this Resolution, for the following purposes and
under the following conditions, but not otherwise:
(a) For the purpose of refunding any of the Notes or Parity Obligations which shall
have matured or which shall mature not later than three months after the date of delivery
of such refunding obligation and for the payment of which there shall be insufficient
money in the Sinking Fund and the Reserve Fund;
(b) For the purpose of refunding any outstanding Notes, Parity Obligations or general
obligation notes or making extensions, additions, improvements or replacements to the
System, if all of the following conditions shall have been met:
(i) before any such Additional Obligations ranking on a parity
are issued, there will have been procured and filed with the City Clerk, a
statement of an Independent Auditor, independent financial consultant or a
consulting engineer, not a regular employee of the Issuer, reciting the
opinion based upon necessary investigations that the Net Revenues of the
System for the preceding Fiscal Year (with adjustments as hereinafter
provided) were equal to at least 1.25 times the maximum amount that will
be required in any Fiscal Year prior to the longest maturity of any of the
Notes or Parity Obligations for both principal of and interest on all Notes
and Parity Obligations then outstanding which are payable from the net
earnings of the System and the Additional Obligations then proposed to be
issued.
For the purpose of determining the Net Revenues of the System for the
preceding Fiscal Year as aforesaid, the amount of the gross revenues for
such year may be adjusted by an Independent Auditor, independent
financial consultant or a consulting engineer, not a regular employee of the
Issuer, so as to reflect any changes in the amount of such revenues which
would have resulted had any revision of the schedule of rates or charges
imposed at or prior to the time of the issuance of any such Additional
Obligations been in effect during all of such preceding Fiscal Year.
(ii) the Additional Obligations must be payable as to principal
and as to interest on the same month and day as the Notes herein
authorized.
(iii) for the purposes of this Section, principal and interest
falling due on the first day of a Fiscal Year shall be deemed a requirement
of the immediately preceding Fiscal Year.
_27_
(iv) for the purposes of this Section, general obligation bonds or
notes shall be refunded only upon a finding of necessity by the Governing
Body and only to the extent the general obligation bonds or notes were
issued or the proceeds thereof were expended for the System.
(v) for purposes of this Section, "preceding Fiscal Year" shall
be the most recently completed Fiscal Year for which audited financial
statements prepared by a certified public accountant are issued and
available, but in no event a Fiscal Year which ended more than eighteen
months prior to the date of issuance of Additional Obligations.
Section 23. Disposition of Proceeds: Arbitrage Not Permitted. The Issuer reasonably
expects and covenants that no use will be made of the proceeds from the issuance and sale of the
Notes issued hereunder which will cause any of the Notes to be classified as arbitrage bonds
within the meaning of Section 148(a) and (b) of the Internal Revenue Code of the United States,
and that throughout the term of the Notes it will comply with the requirements of such statute
and regulations issued thereunder.
To the best knowledge and belief of the Issuer, there are no facts or circumstances that
would materially change the foregoing statements or the conclusion that it is not expected that
the proceeds of the Notes will be used in a manner that would cause the Notes to be arbitrage
notes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer hereby agrees to comply with
the provisions of the Tax Exemption Certificate and the provisions of the Tax Exemption
Certificate are hereby incorporated by reference as part of this Resolution. The Treasurer is
hereby directed to make and insert all calculations and determinations necessary to complete the
Tax Exemption Certificate in all respects and to execute and deliver the Tax Exemption
Certificate at issuance of the Notes to certify as to the reasonable expectations and covenants of
the Issuer at that date.
The Issuer covenants that it will treat as Yield Restricted any proceeds of the Notes
remaining unexpended after three years from the issuance and any other funds required by the
Tax Exemption Certificate to be so treated. If any investments are held with respect to the Notes
and Panty Obligations, the Issuer shall treat the same for the purpose of restricted yield as held in
proportion to the original principal amounts of each issue.
The Issuer covenants that it will exceed any investment yield restriction provided in this
Resolution only in the event that it shall first obtain an opinion of recognized bond counsel that
the proposed investment action will not cause the Notes to be classified as arbitrage bonds under
Section 148(a) and (b) the Internal Revenue Code or regulations issued thereunder.
The Issuer covenants that it will proceed with due diligence to spend the proceeds of the
Notes for the purpose set forth in this Resolution. The Issuer further covenants that it will make
no change in the use of the proceeds available for the construction of facilities or change in the
use of any portion of the facilities constructed therefrom by persons other than the Issuer or the
general public unless it has obtained an opinion of bond counsel or a revenue ruling that the
proposed project or use will not be of such character as to cause interest on any of the Notes not
W
to be exempt from federal income taxes in the hands of holders other than substantial users of the
project, under the provisions of Section 142(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of the United
States, related statutes and regulations.
Section 24. Additional Covenants, Representations and Warranties of the Issuer. The
Issuer certifies and covenants with the purchasers and holders of the Notes from time to time
outstanding that the Issuer through its officers, (a) will make such further specific covenants,
representations and assurances as may be necessary or advisable; (b) comply with all
representations, covenants and assurances contained in the Tax Exemption Certificate, which
Tax Exemption Certificate shall constitute a part of the contract between the Issuer and the
owners of the Notes; (c) consult with bond counsel (as defined in the Tax Exemption
Certificate); (d) pay to the United States, as necessary, such sums of money representing required
rebates of excess arbitrage profits relating to the Notes; (e) file such forms, statements and
supporting documents as may be required and in a timely manner; and (f) if deemed necessary or
advisable by its officers, to employ and pay fiscal agents, financial advisors, attorneys and other
persons to assist the Issuer in such compliance.
Section 25. Discharge and Satisfaction of Notes. The covenants, liens and pledges
entered into, created or imposed pursuant to this Resolution maybe fully discharged and
satisfied with respect to the Notes and Parity Obligations, or any of them, in any one or more of
the following ways:
(a) By paying the Notes or Parity Obligations when the same shall become due and
payable; and
(b) By depositing in trust with the Treasurer, or with a corporate trustee designated by
the Governing Body for the payment of the obligations and irrevocably appropriated
exclusively to that purpose an amount in cash or direct obligations of the United States
the maturities and income of which shall be sufficient to retire at maturity, or by
redemption prior to maturity on a designated date upon which the obligations may be
redeemed, all of such obligations outstanding at the time, together with the interest
thereon to maturity or to the designated redemption date, premiums thereon, if any, that
may be payable on the redemption of the same; provided that proper notice of redemption
of all such obligations to be redeemed shall have been previously published or provisions
shall have been made for such publication.
Upon such payment or deposit of money or securities, or both, in the amount and manner
provided by this Section, all liability of the Issuer with respect to the Notes or Parity Obligations
shall cease, determine and be completely discharged, and the holders thereof shall be entitled
only to payment out of the money or securities so deposited.
Section 26. Resolution a Contract. The provisions of this Resolution shall constitute a
contract between the Issuer and the holder or holders of the Notes and Parity Obligations, and
after the issuance of any of the Notes no change, variation or alteration of any kind in the
provisions of this Resolution shall be made in any manner, except as provided in the next
-29-
succeeding Section, until such time as all of the Notes and Parity Obligations, and interest due
thereon, shall have been satisfied and discharged as provided in this Resolution.
Section 27. Amendment of Resolution Without Consent. The Issuer may, without the
consent of or notice to any of the holders of the Notes and Panty Obligations, amend or
supplement this Resolution for any one or more of the following purposes:
(a) to cure any ambiguity, defect, omission or inconsistent provision in this

provision of law or regulation of federal or state agencies; provided, however, that such
action shall not materially adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Notes or

additional rights, remedies, powers or authority that may lawfully be granted to or

surrender or eliminate any right or power reserved to or conferred upon the Issuer in this
Resolution; or
(e) to subject to the lien and pledge of this Resolution additional pledged revenues as
may be permitted by law.

amended from time to time if such amendment shall have been consented to by holders of not
less than two-thirds in principal amount of the Notes and Parity Obligations at any time
outstanding (not including in any case any Notes which may then be held or owned by or for the
account of the Issuer, but including such refunding obligations as may have been issued for the
purpose of refunding any of such Notes if such refunding obligations shall not then be owned by
the Issuer); but this Resolution may not be so amended in such manner as to:
(a) Make any change in the maturity of interest rate of the Notes, or modify the terms
of payment of principal of or interest on the Notes or any of them or impose any
conditions with respect to such payment;
(b) Materially affect the rights of the holders of less than all of the Notes and Panty
Obligations then outstanding; and

(o) The Issuer does not expect that the Proceeds of the Bonds will be used in a
manner that would cause them to be "arbitrage bonds" as defined in Section 148(a) of the
Code. The Issuer does not expect that the Proceeds of the Bonds will be used in a

the Bonds, or in connection with any transaction or series of transactions connected with

Except for costs of issuance, all Sale Proceeds and investment earnings thereon will be

federal income taxation.
Section 2.2 Receipts and Expenditures of Sale Proceeds
Sale Proceeds totaling $4,032,168.25 (par of $3,650,000 plus re -offering premium of
$382,168.35), less underwriter's discount of $15,083.11, received at Closing in the amount of
$4,017,085.24 are expected to be deposited and expended as follows:

(d) $-0- will be deposited into the Reserve Fund.
Section 2.3 Purpose of Bonds
The Issuer is issuing the Bonds to refund the Refunded Bonds prior to maturity in order
to realize debt service savings due to lower interest rates payable on the Refunding Bonds.
Section 2.4 Facts Supporting Tax -Exemption Classification
Governmental Bonds
Private Business Use/Private Security or Payment Tests
The Bonds are considered to be governmental bonds, not subject to the provisions
of the alternate minimum tax. The Proceeds will be used for the purposes described in
Section 2.3 hereof. These bonds are not private activity bonds because no amount of
Proceeds of the Refunded Bonds were used in a trade or business carried on by a non-
governmental unit. Rather, the Proceeds will be used to finance the general government
operations and facilities of the Issuer described in Section 2.3 hereof. None of the
7
payment of principal or interest on the Bonds will be derived from, or secured by, money
or property used in a trade or business of a non-governmental unit. In addition, none of
the governmental operations or facilities of the Issuer being financed with the Proceeds of
the Bonds are subject to any lease, management contract or other similar arrangement or
to any arrangement for use other than as by the general public.
Private Loan Financing Test
No amount of Proceeds of the Refunded Bonds were used directly or indirectly to
make or finance loans to persons other than governmental units.
Refunding of Governmental or Private Activity Exempt Facility Bonds (where Refunded Bonds
must meet requirements)
The Issuer will use the Proceeds of the Bonds to refund the Refunded Bonds. The Issuer
has complied with the covenants and restrictions with respect to arbitrage and investment
requirements, yield restrictions, and post -closing restrictions on reissuance, reimbursement and
change in use imposed by the Code and Regulations on the Refunded Bonds since the issue date
of the Refunded Bonds so as to maintain the tax-exempt status of the interest on the Refunded
Bonds. The Issuer will comply with all certifications set forth in Article VIII herein.
The Issuer has complied with and will continue to comply with all rebate requirements
applicable to the Refunded Bonds.
Section 2.5 Facts Supporting Temporary Periods for Proceeds
(a) Time Test. Not later than six months after the Closing Date, the Issuer
will incur a substantial binding obligation to a third party to expend at least 5% of the net
Sale Proceeds of the Bonds.
(b) Expenditure Test. Not less than 85% of the net Sale Proceeds will be
expended for Project costs, including the reimbursement of other funds expended to date,
within a three-year temporary period from the Closing Date.
(c) Due Diligence Test. The Issuer has incurred a substantial binding
obligation to accomplish the refunding. The refunding will proceed with due diligence to
completion.
(d) Proceeds of the Bonds representing less than six months accrued interest
on the Bonds will be spent within six months of this date to pay interest on the Bonds,
and will be invested without restriction as to yield for a temporary period not in excess of
six months.
Section 2.6 Resolution Funds at Restricted or Unrestricted Yield
(a) Proceeds of the Bonds will be held and accounted for in the manner
provided in the Resolution. The Issuer has not and does not expect to create or establish
any other bond fund, reserve fund, or similar fund or account for the Bonds. The Issuer
has not and will not pledge any moneys or Taxable Obligations in order to pay debt
service on the Bonds or restrict the use of such moneys or Taxable Obligations so as to
give reasonable assurances of their availability for such purposes.
(b) Any monies which are invested beyond a temporary period are expected to
constitute less than a major portion of the Bonds or to be restricted for investment at a
yield not greater than one-eighth of one percent above the Bond Yield.
(c) The Issuer has established and will use the Bond Fund primarily to
achieve a proper matching of revenues and debt service within each Bond Year and the
Issuer will apply moneys deposited into the Bond Fund to pay the principal of and
interest on the Bonds. Such Fund will be depleted at least once each Bond Year except
for a reasonable carryover amount. The carryover amount will not exceed the greater of
(1) one year's earnings on the Bond Fund or (2) one -twelfth of Annual Debt Service. The
Issuer will spend moneys deposited from time to time into such fund within 13 months
after the date of deposit. Revenues, intended to be used to pay debt service on the Bonds,
will be deposited into the Bond Fund as set forth in the Resolution. The Issuer will spend
interest earned on moneys in such fund not more than 12 months after receipt.
Accordingly, the Issuer will treat the Bond Fund as a bona fide debt service fund as
defined in Regulation 1.148-1(b).
Investment of amounts on deposit in the Bond Fund will not be subject to arbitrage rebate
requirements as the Bonds meet the safe harbor set forth in Regulation 1.148-3(k), because the
average annual debt service on the Bonds will not exceed $2,500,000.
(d) The Minor Portion of the Bonds will be invested without regard to yield.
(e) A Reserve Fund is established to secure the Bonds, however, the Issuer
does not expect that principal of or interest on the Bonds will be paid from the Reserve
Fund. Monies in the Reserve Fund will not be accumulated except to a reasonable extent.
Within one year of receipt, earnings upon the investment of the Reserve Fund monies
will be commingled with other revenues from the operations of the Issuer which are
substantial in amount for accounting and expenditure.
(t) The amounts on deposit in the Reserve Fund will at all times be equal to
or less than the Allowable Reserve Fund Amount. However, if the amount in the Reserve
Fund exceeds the Allowable Reserve Fund Amount, such excess must be invested at a
yield no higher than the Bond Yield or will be invested in Tax Exempt Obligations.
(g) For purposes of Subsections (e) and (f), the following terms shall have the
meanings set forth below:
(1) "Allowable Reserve Fund Amount" as described in Regulation
1.148-2(t)(2) means an amount equal to the lesser of (10) percent of the stated
principal amount of the Bonds, the maximum annual principal and interest
coming due on the Bonds, or 125% of the average annual principal and interest
coming due on the Bonds. The Allowable Reserve Fund Amount is computed to
be $403,217.
0
(2) "Reserve Fund" means that portion of the Revenue Fund as
described in the Resolution.
(h) The Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund are funds which either (a) are
reasonably expected to be used to pay debt service on the Bonds and Panty Bonds, or (b)
are pledged to the payment of debt service on the Parity Bonds should other sources
prove insufficient. The Bond Fund is a "sinking fund" as defined in Regulation 1.148-
1(c)(2). The Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund apply to two or more issues, and each
fund in the aggregate shall be referred to as a "Commingled Fund". Each Commingled
Fund shall be allocated among the various issues of Bonds and Parity Bonds according to
the methods described below.
(i) For purposes of Subsection (h), the following terms shall have the
meanings set forth below:
(1) "Bond Fund Allocation Factor" shall be determined by dividing the
original face amount of the Bonds, $3,650,000, by the sum of the original face
amounts of all outstanding Panty Bonds.
(2) "Panty Bonds" means the Bonds, and all other outstanding bonds
of the Issuer ranking on a parity with the Bonds as set forth in the Resolution.
(3) "Reserve Fund Allocation Factor" shall be determined by dividing
the original principal amount of the Bonds, $3,650,000 by the sum of the original
face amounts of all outstanding Parity Bonds.
A portion of the investments in each Commingled Fund and earnings thereon shall be
allocated to the Bonds by applying a certain percentage (the "Series 2016D Share") of the market
value of the investments in the applicable Commingled Fund. Each time an issue of Parity
Bonds is no longer outstanding and each time additional Parity Bonds are issued, the Issuer shall
calculate the Series 2016D Share for the Bond Fund and Reserve Fund. The Series 2016D Share
is determined for each Commingled Fund by applying the Bond Fund Allocation Factor and the
Reserve Fund Allocation Factor, as applicable. Each time it shall be necessary to determine the
earnings on the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund, the Issuer shall multiply the eamings for the
applicable Commingled Fund by the applicable Series 2016D Share. The Issuer may, at any
time, use any other allocation method for the Reserve Fund or the Bond Fund allowed by
Regulation 1.148-6(e)(6).
Section 2.7 Pertaining to Yields
(a) The purchase price of all Taxable Obligations to which restrictions apply
under this Certificate as to investment yield or rebate of Excess Earnings, if any, has been
and shall be calculated using (i) the price taking into account discount, premium and
accrued interest, as applicable, actually paid or (ii) the fair market value if less than the
price actually paid and if such Taxable Obligations were not purchased directly from the
United States Treasury. The Issuer will acquire all such Taxable Obligations directly
from the United States Treasury or in an arm's length transaction without regard to any
amounts paid to reduce the yield on such Taxable Obligations. The Issuer will not pay or
10
permit the payment of any amounts (other than to the United States) to reduce the yield
on any Taxable Obligations. Obligations pledged to the payment of debt service on the
Bonds, or deposited into any reserve fund after they have been acquired by the Issuer will
be treated as though they were acquired for their fair market value on the date of such
pledge or deposit. Obligations on deposit in any reserve fund on the Closing Date shall
be treated as if acquired for their fair market value on the Closing Date.
(b) Qualified guarantees have not been used in computing yield.
(c) The Bond Yield has been computed as not less than percent.
This Bond Yield has been computed on the basis of a purchase price for the Bonds equal
to the Issue Price.
ARTICLE III
REBATE
Section 3.1 Records
Sale Proceeds of the Bonds will be held and accounted for in the manner provided in the
Resolution. The Issuer will maintain adequate records for funds created by the Resolution and
this Certificate including all deposits, withdrawals, transfers from, transfers to, investments,
reinvestments, sales, purchases, redemptions, liquidations and use of money or obligations until
six years after the Final Bond Retirement Date.
Section 3.2 Rebate Fund
(a) hi the Resolution, the Issuer has covenanted to pay to the United States the
Rebate Amount, an amount equal to the Excess Earnings on the Gross Proceeds Funds, if
any, at the times and in the manner required or permitted and subject to stated special
rules and allowable exceptions.
(b) The Issuer may establish a fund pursuant to the Resolution and this
Certificate which is herein referred to as the Rebate Fund. The Issuer will invest and
expend amounts on deposit in the Rebate Fund in accordance with this Certificate.
(c) Moneys in the Rebate Fund shall be held by the Issuer or its designee and,
subject to Sections 3.4, 3.5 and 6.1 hereof, shall be held for future payment to the United
States as contemplated under the provisions of this Certificate and shall not constitute
part of the trust estate held for the benefit of the owners of the Bonds or the Issuer.
(d) The Issuer will pay to the United States from legally available money of
the Issuer (whether or not such available money is on deposit in any fund or account
related to the Bonds) any amount which is required to be paid to the United States.
11
Section 3.3 Exceptions to Rebate
The Issuer reasonably expects that the Bonds are eligible for one or more exceptions from
the arbitrage rebate rules set forth in the Regulations. If any Proceeds are ineligible, or become
ineligible, for an exception to the arbitrage rebate rules, the Issuer will comply with the
provisions of this Article III. A description of the applicable rebate exceptions is as follows:
Six Month Exception
The Gross Proceeds of the Bonds are expected to be fully expended for the governmental
purposes for which the Bonds were issued no later than six months after the date of issue. If
contrary to the reasonable expectations of the Issuer, the Gross Proceeds are not expended within
six months, the Issuer will comply with the arbitrage rebate requirements of the Code.
Election with respect to Reserve Fund earnings.
The Issuer elects pursuant to Code Section 148(f)(4)(C)(vi)(N) to exclude earnings on
the Reserve Fund from ACP and to comply with the rebate requirements from the Closing Date.
If the Issuer fails to meet the foregoing expenditure schedule, the Issuer shall comply
with the arbitrage rebate requirements of the Code.
Section 3.4 Calculation of Rebate Amount
(a) As soon after each Computation Date as practicable, the Issuer shall, if
necessary, calculate and determine the Excess Earnings on the Gross Proceeds Funds (the
"Rebate Amount"). All calculations and determinations with respect to the Rebate
Amount will be made on the basis of actual facts as of the Computation Date and
reasonable expectations as to future events.
(b) If the Rebate Amount exceeds the amount currently on deposit in the
Rebate Fund, the Issuer may deposit an amount in the Rebate Fund such that the balance
in the Rebate Fund after such deposit equals the Rebate Amount. If the amount in the
Rebate Fund exceeds the Rebate Amount, the Issuer may withdraw such excess amount
provided that such withdrawal can be made from amounts originally transferred to the
Rebate Fund and not from earnings thereon, which may not be transferred, and only if
such withdrawal may be made without liquidating investments at a loss.
Section 3.5 Rebate Requirements and the Bond Fund
It is expected that the Bond Fund described in the Resolution and Section 2.6(c) of this
Certificate will be treated as a bona fide debt service fund as defined in Regulation 1.148-1(b).
As such, any amount earned during a Bond Year on the Bond Fund and amounts earned on such
amounts, if allocated to the Bond Fund, will not be taken into account in calculating the Rebate
Amount if the annual gross earnings on the Bond Fund for such Bond Year are less than
$100,000 or if average annual debt service will not exceed $2,500,000. However, should annual
gross earnings exceed $100,000 or should the Bond Fund cease to be treated as a bona fide debt
12
service fund, the Bond Fund will become subject to the rebate requirements set forth in Section
3.4 hereof.
Section 3.6 Investment of the Rebate Fund
(a) Immediately upon a transfer to the Rebate Fund, the Issuer may invest all
amounts in the Rebate Fund not already invested and held in the Rebate Fund, to the
extent possible, in (1) SLGS, such investments to be made at a yield of not more than
one-eighth of one percent above the Bond Yield, (2) Tax Exempt Obligations, (3) direct
obligations of the United States or (4) certificates of deposit of any bank or savings and
loan association. All investments in the Rebate Fund shall be made to mature not later
than the next Rebate Payment Date.
(b) If the Issuer invests in SLGS, the Issuer shall file timely subscription
forms for such securities (if required). To the extent possible, amounts received from
maturing SLGS shall be reinvested immediately in zero yield SLGS maturing on or
before the next Rebate Payment Date.
Section 3.7 Payment to the United States
(a) On each Rebate Payment Date, the Issuer will pay to the United States at
least ninety percent (90%) of the Rebate Amount less a computation credit of $1,000 per
Bond Year for which the payment is made.
(b) The Issuer will pay to the United States not later than sixty (60) days after
the Final Bond Retirement Date all the rebatable arbitrage as of such date and any income
attributable to such rebatable arbitrage as described in Regulation 1.148-3(f)(2).
(c) If necessary, on each Rebate Payment Date, the Issuer will mail a check to
the Internal Revenue Service Center, Ogden, UT 84201. Each payment shall be
accompanied by a copy of Form 8038-T, Arbitrage Rebate, filed with respect to the
Bonds or other information reporting form as is required to comply with the Code and
applicable Regulations.
Section 3.8 Records
(a) The Issuer will keep and retain adequate records with respect to the
Bonds, the Gross Proceeds Funds, the Bond Fund, the Reserve Fund, and the Rebate
Fund until six years after the Final Bond Retirement Date. Such records shall include
descriptions of all calculations of amounts transferred to the Rebate Fund, if any, and
descriptions of all calculations of amounts paid to the United States as required by this
Certificate. Such records will also show all amounts earned on moneys invested in such
funds, and the actual dates and amounts of all principal, interest and redemption
premiums (if any) paid on the Bonds.
(b) Records relating to the investments in such Funds shall completely
describe all transfers, deposits, disbursements and earnings including:
13
(1) a complete list of all investments and reinvestments of amounts in
each such Fund including, if applicable, purchase price, purchase date, type of
security, accrued interest paid, interest rate, dated date, principal amount, date of
maturity, interest payment dates, date of liquidation, receipt upon liquidation,
market value of such investment on the Final Bond Retirement Date if held by the
Issuer on the Final Bond Retirement Date, and market value of the investment on
the date pledged to the payment of the Bonds or the date of deposit into the
Reserve Fund, or the Closing Date if different from the purchase date.
(2) the amount and source of each payment to, and the amount,
purpose and payee of each payment from, each such Fund.
Section 3.9 Additional Payments
The Issuer hereby agrees to pay to the United States from legally available money of the
Issuer (whether or not such available money is on deposit in any fund or account related to the
Bonds) any amount which is required to be paid to the United States, but which is not available
in a fund related to the Bonds for transfer to the Rebate Fund or payment to the United States.
ARTICLE IV
INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS
Section 4.1 Avoidance of Prohibited Payments
The Issuer will not enter into any transaction that reduces the amount required to be
deposited into the Rebate Fund or paid to the United States because such transaction results in a
smaller profit or a larger loss than would have resulted if the transaction had been at arm's length
and had the Bond Yield not been relevant to either party. The Issuer will not invest or direct the
investment of any funds in a manner which reduces an amount required to be paid to the United
States because such transaction results in a small profit or larger loss than would have resulted if
the transaction had been at arm's length and had the Bond Yield not been relevant to the Issuer.
In particular, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Resolution, the
Issuer will not invest or direct the investment of any funds in a manner which would violate any
provision of this Article IV.
Section 4.2 Market Price Requirement
(a) The Issuer will not purchase or direct the purchase of Taxable Obligations
for more than the then available market price for such Taxable Obligations. The Issuer
will not sell, liquidate or direct the sale or liquidation of Taxable Obligations for less than
the then available market price.
(b) For purposes of this Certificate, United States Treasury obligations
purchased directly from the United States Treasury will be deemed to be purchased at the
market price.
14
Section 4.3 Investment in Certificates of Denosit
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the
Resolution, the Issuer will invest or direct the investment of funds on deposit in the
Reserve Fund, any other Gross Proceeds Fund, the Bond Fund, and the Rebate Fund, in a
certificate of deposit of a bank or savings bank which is permitted by law and by the
Resolution only if the purchase price of such a certificate of deposit is treated as its fair
market value on the purchase date and if the yield on the certificate of deposit is not less
than (1) the yield on reasonably comparable direct obligations of the United States; and
(2) the highest yield that is published or posted by the provider to be currently available
from the provider on reasonably comparable certificates of deposit offered to the public.
(b) The certificate of deposit described in paragraph 4.3(a) above must be
executed by a dealer who maintains an active secondary market in comparable
certificates of deposit and must be based on actual trades adjusted to reflect the size and
term of that certificate of deposit and the stability and reputation of the bank or savings
bank issuing the certificate of deposit.
Section 4.4 Investment Pursuant to Investment Contracts and Agreements
The Issuer will invest or direct the investment of funds on deposit in the Gross Proceeds
Funds, the Bond Fund, and the Rebate Fund pursuant to an investment contract (including a
repurchase agreement) only if all of the following requirements are satisfied:
(a) The Issuer makes a bona fide solicitation for the purchase of the
investment. A bona fide solicitation is a solicitation that satisfies all of the following
requirements:
(1) The bid specifications are in writing and are timely forwarded to
potential providers.
(2) The bid specifications include all material terms of the bid. A term
is material if it may directly or indirectly affect the yield or the cost of the
investment.
(3) The bid specifications include a statement notifying potential
providers that submission of a bid is a representation that the potential provider
did not consult with any other potential provider about its bid, that the bid was
determined without regard to any other formal or informal agreement that the
potential provider has with the issuer or any other person (whether or not in
connection with the Bonds), and that the bid is not being submitted solely as a
courtesy to the issuer or any other person for purposes of satisfying the
requirements of paragraph (d)(6)(iii)(B)(1) or (2) of Section 1.148-5 of the
Regulations.
(4) The terms of the bid specifications are commercially reasonable.
A term is commercially reasonable if there is a legitimate business purpose for the
15
term other than to increase the purchase price or reduce the yield of the
investment.
(5) For purchases of guaranteed investment contracts only, the terms
of the solicitation take into account the Issuer's reasonably expected deposit and
drawdown schedule for the amounts to be invested.
(6) All potential providers have an equal opportunity to bid and no
potential provider is given the opportunity to review other bids (i.e., a last look)
before providing a bid.
(7) At least three reasonably competitive providers are solicited for
bids. A reasonably competitive provider is a provider that has an established
industry reputation as a competitive provider of the type of investments being
purchased.
(b) The bids received by the Issuer meet all of the following requirements:
(1) The Issuer receives at least three bids from providers that the
Issuer solicited under a bona fide solicitation meeting the requirements of
paragraph (d)(6)(iii)(A) of Section 1.148-5 of the Regulations and that do not
have a material financial interest in the issue. A lead underwriter in a negotiated
underwriting transaction is deemed to have a material financial interest in the
issue until 15 days after the issue date of the issue. In addition, any entity acting
as a financial advisor with respect to the purchase of the investment at the time
the bid specifications are forwarded to potential providers has a material financial
interest in the issue. A provider that is a related party to a provider that has a
material financial interest in the issue is deemed to have a material financial
interest in the issue.
(2) At least one of the three bids described in paragraph
(d)(6)(iii)(B)(I) of Section 1.148-5 of the Regulations is from a reasonably
competitive provider, within the meaning of paragraph (d)(6)(iii)(A)(7) of Section
1.148-5 of the Regulations.
(3) If the Issuer uses an agent to conduct the bidding process, the agent
did not bid to provide the investment.
(c) The winning bid meets the following requirements:
(1) Guaranteed investment contracts. If the investment is a guaranteed
investment contract, the winning bid is the highest yielding bona fide bid
(determined net of any broker's fees).
(2) Other investments. If the investment is not a guaranteed
investment contract, the winning bid is the lowest cost bona fide bid (including
any broker's fees).
T61
(d) The provider of the investments or the obligor on the guaranteed
investment contract certifies the administrative costs that it pays (or expects to pay, if
any) to third parties in connection with supplying the investment.
(e) The Issuer will retain the following records with the bond documents until
three years after the last outstanding bond is redeemed:
(1) For purchases of guaranteed investment contracts, a copy of the
contract, and for purchases of investments other than guaranteed investment
contracts, the purchase agreement or confirmation.
(2) The receipt or other record of the amount actually paid by the
Issuer for the investments, including a record of any administrative costs paid by
the Issuer, and the certification under paragraph (d)(6)(iii)(D) of Section 1.148-5
of the Regulations.
(3) For each bid that is submitted, the name of the person and entity
submitting the bid, the time and date of the bid, and the bid results.
(4) The bid solicitation form and, if the terms of the purchase
agreement or the guaranteed investment contract deviated from the bid solicitation
form or a submitted bid is modified, a brief statement explaining the deviation and
stating the purpose for the deviation.
(5) For purchases of investments other than guaranteed investment
contracts, the cost of the most efficient portfolio of State and Local Government
Series Securities, determined at the time that the bids were required to be
submitted pursuant to the terms of the bid specifications.
Section 4.5 Records
The Issuer will maintain records of all purchases, sales, liquidations, investments,
reinvestments, redemptions, disbursements, deposits, and transfers of amounts on deposit.
Section 4.6 Investments to be Legal
All investments required to be made pursuant to this Certificate shall be made to the
extent permitted by law. In the event that any such investment is determined to be ultra vires, it
shall be liquidated and the proceeds thereof shall be invested in a legal investment, provided that
prior to reinvesting such proceeds, the Issuer shall obtain an opinion of Bond Counsel to the
effect that such reinvestment will not cause the Bonds to become arbitrage bonds under Sections
103, 148, 149, or any other applicable provision of the Code.
17
ARTICLE V
GENERAL COVENANTS
The Issuer hereby covenants to perform all acts within its power necessary to ensure that
the reasonable expectations set forth in Article II hereof will be realized. The Issuer reasonably
expects to comply with all covenants contained in this Certificate.
ARTICLE VI
AMENDMENTS AND ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS
Section 6.1 Opinion of Bond Counsel: Amendments
The various provisions of this Certificate need not be observed and this Certificate may
be amended or supplemented at any time by the Issuer if the Issuer receives an opinion or
opinions of Bond Counsel that the failure to comply with such provisions will not cause any of
the Bonds to become "arbitrage bonds" under the Code and that the terms of such amendment or
supplement will not cause any of the Bonds to become "arbitrage bonds" under the Code, or
otherwise cause interest on any of the Bonds to become includable in gross income for federal
income tax purposes.
Section 6.2 Additional Covenants, Agreements
The Issuer hereby covenants to make, execute and enter into (and to take such actions, if
any, as may be necessary to enable it to do so) such agreements as may be necessary to comply
with any changes in law or regulations in order to preserve the tax-exempt status of the Bonds to
the extent that it may lawfully do so. The Issuer further covenants (1) to impose such limitations
on the investment or use of moneys or investments related to the Bonds, (2) to make such
payments to the United States Treasury, (3) to maintain such records, (4) to perform such
calculations, and (5) to perform such other lawful acts as may be necessary to preserve the tax-
exempt status of the Bonds.
Section 6.3 Internal Revenue Service Audits
The Internal Revenue Service has not audited the Issuer regarding any obligations issued
by or on behalf of the Issuer. To the best knowledge of the Issuer, no such obligations of the
Issuer are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
Section 6.4 Amendments
Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.1 hereof, all the rights, powers, duties and
obligations of the Issuer shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Issuer and shall not be subject
to amendment or modification by the Issuer.
ARTICLE VII
FURTHER CERTIFICATIONS WITH RESPECT TO REFUNDING BONDS
(a) Property financed with the Proceeds of the Refunded Bonds will not be
sold or disposed of, in whole or in part, prior to the last maturity date of either the
obligations or the last maturity of the Bonds.
(b) All of the Proceeds of the Refunded Bonds were used to provide facilities
used in the regular operations of the Issuer and neither the facilities nor the output thereof
have been or are expected to be used in the trade or business of any person other than the
Issuer.
(c) Reimbursement Allocations and Original Expenditures, if any, reimbursed
from proceeds of the Refunded Bonds complied with the Reimbursement Regulations in
effect at the time of issuance of the Refunded Bonds.
(d) The Proceeds of the Refunding Bonds will be used for a current refunding
and the Refunding Bonds are issued not more than 90 days before the last expenditure of
any Proceeds of the Refunding Bonds for payment of debt service on the Refunded
Bonds. The Proceeds of the Refunding Bonds will be invested in materially higher yield
acquired obligations for a temporary period of not to exceed 90 days.
(e) No Proceeds of the Refunded Bonds remain unspent. No sinking fund has
been established for the Refunded Bonds. No amount of proceeds of the Refunded
Bonds are invested for a temporary period or as part of a minor portion of the Refunded
Bonds.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has caused this Certificate to be executed by its
duly authorized officer, all as of the day first above written.

co stitute less than a major portion of the Bonds or to be restricted for investment at a
yiel not greater than one-eighth of one percent above the Bond Yield.
The Issuer has established and will use the Bond F d primarily to
achieve a roper matching of revenues and debt service within ch Bond Year and the
Issuer will ply moneys deposited into the Bond Fund to pa the principal of and
interest on Bonds. Such Fund will be depleted at least nce each Bond Year except
for a reasonab carryover amount. The carryover amo t will not exceed the greater of
(1) one year's a ngs on the Bond Fund or (2) one- elfth of Annual Debt Service. The
Issuer will spend oneys deposited from time to ti a into such fund within 13 months

will be deposited in the Bond Fund as set fib
in the Resolution. The Issuer will spend
interest earned on mo eys in such fund not re than 12 months after receipt.

substantial in a unt for accounting and expe iture.
(f) The amounts on deposit in the Res e Fund will at all times be equal to
or less than a Allowable Reserve Fund Amount. Wever, if the amount in the Reserve
Fund ext ds the Allowable Reserve Fund Amount, s h excess must be invested at a
yield no 'gher than the Bond Yield or will be invested i Tax Exempt Obligations.
