| All right. Today is July 7, 2021, and the time is 5:02 and we are going to call the Redevelopment Agency board to order. So we'll | 00:00:06 | |
| just go ahead and go through our agenda and we'll do, I guess we're not having a council meeting, but why not start with an | 00:00:14 | |
| invocation? Anybody have a special thought or a prayer they want to give? | 00:00:22 | |
| Please do it, Chris. Thank you. | 00:00:32 | |
| Our grace to suddenly Father, we come before thee this evening. We give you thanks for this day. We're thankful to be able to meet | 00:00:36 | |
| here together as a community and as a Redevelopment Agency board. And we asked you to help us to be. | 00:00:43 | |
| Guided and help us to know the best things to do for this community. Father, at this time we give you thanks for those in this | 00:00:50 | |
| nation and the state, the community that all serve others, those that. | 00:00:56 | |
| With the sheriff and police and fire. | 00:01:03 | |
| Emergency services and those serving in the armed forces, that extra care and safety will be provided to them and that their | 00:01:06 | |
| families will know the love that we have for them as well. Father, we ask you to bless those who are in our community who are | 00:01:11 | |
| struggling that that they're great neighbors and community members will reach out and help them in ways that that they will need. | 00:01:15 | |
| Father, at this time, we ask you. | 00:01:20 | |
| Process with additional rain in the state and in our community that will be able to conserve those resources and use them wisely. | 00:01:26 | |
| And these things we ask anything before. And then I said Jesus Christ, Amen. Thanks so much, Chris. Really appreciate it. | 00:01:32 | |
| All right, we can move on to our consent agenda. I just need. | 00:01:39 | |
| A motion. And second, Second, OK, And that's to approve the June 23rd RDA meeting minutes. | 00:01:43 | |
| OK. Business items discussion 3.1. This is the Waters Edge subordination agreement and it looks like, Jake, you're going to start | 00:01:53 | |
| us out with an introduction. | 00:01:58 | |
| Yep. OK. So in 2014, the RDA entered into a reimbursement agreement with Water's Edge and they installed most of the | 00:02:03 | |
| infrastructure for their development, which included roads, sewer lines, water lines, storm water lines, parks. | 00:02:10 | |
| All of that. | 00:02:19 | |
| And that reimbursement agreement was signed at a 7 1/2% interest rate. | 00:02:21 | |
| When we've been talking about. | 00:02:31 | |
| Doing this bond, we've always anticipated doing some sort of refunding of some of that debt, but we didn't know how much and so | 00:02:33 | |
| we've gone through the process. | 00:02:38 | |
| Of looking. | 00:02:44 | |
| And. | 00:02:45 | |
| We there's a waterfall of funds with the RDA and what that means is if there's not enough financing in one year to repay all of | 00:02:47 | |
| the debts that the RDA has, then we pay them off in a certain order. | 00:02:53 | |
| But we wouldn't be able to go out to the public market for bonds. | 00:03:01 | |
| If they were in a second position and so we needed water's edge to subordinate or take a second position to these new bonds. | 00:03:07 | |
| And so that's what this subordination agreement is. So in the subordinate subordination agreement, we will be refunding 24 and a | 00:03:15 | |
| half million of the waters edge. | 00:03:20 | |
| They will be paying $300,000 towards the closing costs associated with the refinance of the debt. | 00:03:25 | |
| And we'll be agreeing to take a second position to the. | 00:03:32 | |
| So that's the gist of it, the 10,000 foot level and happy to answer any questions. | 00:03:36 | |
| David's here and he can talk specifics about the deal. | 00:03:40 | |
| If you have any questions for him as well. | 00:03:44 | |
| OK. | 00:03:47 | |
| David, do you, do you have any concerns or thoughts about it? | 00:03:48 | |
| No, this is something I think that the city has been aware of. This is a nice thing to address some of the costs. I know there's | 00:03:53 | |
| been discussions about the pros and cons of this, but I think overall this puts the city in a good position to move forward and to | 00:03:59 | |
| continue to improve the financial position of the city. So I think this is a good thing overall. | 00:04:04 | |
| OK, great. Board, do you have any questions or comments I'm assuming? | 00:04:10 | |
| City Council is reviewed the subordination agreement. | 00:04:16 | |
| Or we're good there. | 00:04:20 | |
| OK. | 00:04:24 | |
| OK. David just brought up a good point. So the RDA board will sign this. | 00:04:27 | |
| And then we can put it on the consent agenda for the City Council to sign it. | 00:04:32 | |
| It will have to be on. | 00:04:37 | |
| The City Council agenda at some point. | 00:04:38 | |
| OK, great. | 00:04:41 | |
| Any questions from the public? | 00:04:43 | |
| All right then. I just need a motion. I'll make a motion. | 00:04:45 | |
| I make the motion to approve the subordination agreement for the 2021 bonds. | 00:04:51 | |
| As. | 00:04:58 | |
| OK, second by Tice, all in favor? Aye. OK, that brings us to the close of the meeting and I just need a motion to. | 00:04:59 | |
| So moved in a second. | 00:05:09 | |
| Second, all in favor, OK. | 00:05:10 |
