MEMORANDUM
Date: November 5, 1981
To: City Council p ,I
From: Rosemary Vitosh, Director of Finance 1� "
Re: Industrial Revenue Bonds (Henry Louis, Inc. Project)
On May 19, 1981, Council approved a resolution to proceed with the
issuance and sale of Industrial Revenue Bonds for the Henry Louis,
Inc. Project in an amount not to exceed $80,000. The bond proceeds
will be used to finance the leasehold improvements and equipment
purchases for a camera store in the Old Capitol Center.
The projects costs have exceeded the original estimate and Henry
Louis, Inc. is requesting that the City Council authorize an increase
in the amount of bonds to "not to exceed $90,000." A review of the
financial analysis done by City staff indicates that the increased
amount of debt should cause no financial problems. Iowa State Bank
and Trust will be purchasing the bonds and has no objections to
increasing the amount.
