§ 29152 Bond Issue Facility Reports

Key Takeaways

  • •Experts must report to the district about projects paid for by bonds (like building schools or parks).
  • •The report must say what will be built, how much it will cost, and how long it will take.
  • •The report must guess how much money the project will make and how much taxes will be needed.
  • •If the district wants, they can use some bond money to pay interest on the bonds for a few years.

Example

A school district wants to build a new school using money from bonds.

Before they can sell the bonds, they need a report from experts. The report must say what the new school will look like, how much it will cost, how long it will take to build, and how much money the school might make (like from renting out the gym). It also has to say how much taxes will go up to pay for it all. The district can even use some of the bond money to pay the interest on the bonds for a few years so taxes don’t go up right away.

§ 29152 Bond Issue Facility Reports

Such engineers, economists, fiscal experts and others shall make reports to the district, which shall include: (a) A general description of the facilities to be acquired or constructed from the proceeds of the proposed bond issue. (b) The estimated total cost of constructing or acquiring, or both, such facilities. (c) The estimated period of construction of such facilities. (d) An estimate of the revenues which may be expected to be derived therefrom. (e) The amount of bonds which will be required to pay the estimated total cost of constructing or acquiring such facilities. If the district determines to make interest payments out of bond proceeds, the estimate may include a sum sufficient to pay interest on the bonds during the estimated period of construction and for three years, or less, thereafter. (f) An estimate of the taxes required to be levied for all district purposes, the sources from which such taxes shall be obtained, and the proportion or amount to be derived from each source.
