Jeff Kirsch, 2661 W. Palais, Anaheim. He questioned what it was costing to achieve the projected savings. There was some mention of an underwriting discount and he wanted to know how that or any other fees they have to pay relate to the one million dollars. Chairman Daly. He asked staff to describe the highlights of the recommendation; Lisa Stipkovich, Executive Director of Community Development briefed her report dated May 13, 1997 which explained the reasons for the recommendation. It is primarily taking advantage of an opportunity to refinance the bonds at a lower interest rate. Relative to the net present value savings, that amount takes all costs into consideration. A Bond Counsel representative then explained that the total fees paid are somewhat less than 2% of the total amount of the bonds sold. There are certain maximums placed in the authorizing resolution. The Agency will have a chance to review all those numbers and has engaged a Financial Advisor to verify that all the figures are appropriate. Mrs. Stipkovich then clarified for Agency Member Tait that $1 million or more is a conservative number to the extent that they are using a 6 1/4% interest rate. If the market stays as it is today, staff believes it will actually be a lower interest rate. 2.161: Authorizing the Executive Director of Community Development to approve change order requests up to $25,000 total (Change Order No. 1 - United States Post Office, located at the northwest corner of Clementine and Broadway Streets).
