RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING PROCEDURES
RELATING TO COMPLIANCE WITH REIMBURSEMENT BOND
REGULATIONS UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council (the "Council") of the City of
Chanhassen, Minnesota (the "City"), as follows:
1. Recitals.
a. The Internal Revenue Service has issued Treasury
Regulations, Section 1.150-2 (as the same may be amended or
supplemented, the "Regulations"), dealing with
"reimbursement bond" proceeds, being proceeds of the City's
bonds used to reimburse the City for any project expenditure
paid by the City prior to the time of the issuance of those
bonds.
b. The Regulations generally require that the City
make a declaration of intent to reimburse itself for such
prior expenditures out of the proceeds of subsequently
issued bonds, that such declaration be made not later than
60 days after the expenditure is actually paid, and that the
bonding occur and the written reimbursement allocation'be
made from the proceeds of such bonds within 18 months after
the later of (1) the date of payment of the expenditure or
(2) the date the project is placed in service (but in no
event more than 3 years after actual payment).
c. The City heretofore implemented procedures for
compliance with the predecessor versions of the Regulations
and desires to amend and supplement those procedures to
ensure compliance with the Regulations.
d. The City's bond counsel has advised the City that
the Regulations do not apply, and hence the provisions of
this Resolution are intended to have no application to
payments of City project costs first made by the City out of
the proceeds of bonds issued prior to the date of such
payments.
2. Official Intent Declaration. The Regulations, in the
situations in which they apply, require the City to have declared
an official intent (the "Declaration") to reimburse itself for
previously paid project expenditures out of the proceeds of
subsequently issued bonds. The Council hereby authorizes the
City Manager to make the City's Declarations or to
delegate from time to time that responsibility to other
1122404.1
appropriate City employees. Each Declaration shall comply with
the requirements of the Regulations, including without limitation
the following:
a. Each Declaration shall be made not later than 60
days after payment of the applicable project cost and shall
state that the City reasonably expects to reimburse itself
for the expenditure-out of the proceeds of a bond issue or
similar borrowing. Each Declaration may be made
substantially in the form of the Exhibit A which is attached
to and made a part of this Resolution, or in any other
format which may at the time comply with the Regulations.
b. Each Declaration shall (1) contain a reasonably
accurate description of the "project," as defined in the
Regulations (which may include the property or program to be
financed, as applicable), to which the expenditure relates
and (2) state the maximum principal amount of bonding
expected to be issued for that project.
c. Care shall be taken so that the City, or its
authorized, representatives under this Resolution, not make~
Declarations in cases where the City does not reasonably
expect to issue reimbursement bonds to finance the subject
project costs, and the City officials are hereby authorized
to consult with bond counsel to the City concerning the
requirements of the Regulations and their application in
particular circumstances.
d. The Council shall be advised from time to time on
the desirability and timing of the issuance of reimbursement
bonds relating to project expenditures for which the City
has made Declarations.
3. Reimbursement Allocations. The designated City
officials shall also be responsible for making the "reimbursement
allocations" described in the Regulations, being generally
written allocations that evidence the City's use of the
applicable bond proceeds to reimburse the original expenditures.
4. Effect. This Resolution shall amend and supplement all
prior resolutions and/or procedures adopted by the City for
compliance with the Regulations (or their predecessor versions),
and, henceforth, in the event of any inconsistency, the
provisions of this Resolution shall apply and govern.
Adopted this 10th day of Janosr¥
