REGULAR AGENDA
1. Consider, and act upon, all matters incident and related to approving and
authorizing publication of Notice of Intention to issue $540,000 Combination Tax
and Revenue Certificates of Obligation, Series 2010 including the adoption of the
Resolution 2010-20 (R) pertaining thereto. (L. Bantz, Finance)
Staff/Council Discussion
Finance Director Bantz addressed council stating that the current City Hall will be used for Police, Fire --
Administration, and Municipal Court after the new Municipal Complex opens and other departments
relocate to it. The $540,000 Certificates of Obligation are being sold to fund repairs and space planning
for the current City Hall to accommodate the building's new use. She explained that during the budget
work session, discussion regarding restructuring the city debt was recommended; if council approves
these proposed Certificates of Obligation it will become part of that restricted bond note.
Councilman Goss asked if there was a budget break down for the funding in regard to what it would be
used for. City Manager Manson replied that the estimate for a new roof for the building was over
$300,000, a year and a half ago. She explained that a large portion of the CO funding would be used to
replace the roof. Other interior construction items needed to accommodate the new department usages
would be"phased in" as funding was available.
Mayor Pro Tem asked if the proposed Certificates of Obligation would require any type of tax increase.
Finance Director Bantz replied that at this time no tax increase was planned. Mayor Hogue reported that
there were several reasons for the improvements to the Municipal Complex for Public Safety staff. He
explained that there were ten jail cells that were housed in the police area. To rebuild those cells in
another facility would cost in excess of ten million dollars. He also explained that municipal court and
Precinct 2 were currently housed in the building and construction improvements to the existing facility
would be the most cost effective.
Council Action
A motion was made by Councilman Porter, seconded by Councilman Jones to approve all
matters incident and related to approving and authorizing publication of Notice of Intention to
issue $540,000 Combination Tax and Revenue Certificates of Obligation, Series 2010
including the adoption of Resolution No. 2010-20(R) pertaining thereto. A vote was taken and

the functions and to make recommendations to the City Council. Ehrlich reported that over 50 applicants
were interviewed by the three member panel consisting of Mayor Pro Tern Byboth, Councilwoman Kathy
Spillyards, and Councilman Bennie Jones. Alternate Carter Porter also attended the meetings.

Manager Manson explained that process was completed within a different time period. She reported
that she would check to insure that item was brought back to council.
Mayor Pro Tem Byboth reported that the applicants this year were all very qualified. He reviewed the
recommendations with council and noted that Councilman Jones was acquiring a list of additional boards
that could be put in place to allow more citizens to be involved. Mayor Pro Tern Byboth also suggested
increasing the number of board members on the existing boards to allow more participation. He noted
