LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
1. CONVENTION CENTER FINANCING
Recommendation: That the Council and P.S. Financing
Authority adopt specific actions concerning matters related
to refinancing the existing Convention Center debt, and
financing the expansion.
City Treasurer noted that there are several documents
which do not contain exact figures, including bond insurance
and interest rate; that in one instance the maximum rate
will be 7.5%; and that of the $50 million issue, $12 million
represents the Convention Center Expansion, and the balance (155-
is a refinancing of the existing debt; that the decision 005)
to refinance the existing debt simplified the expansion
financing without a lot of legal problems because of the
way in which the leases were originally structured; that
the recent low rate for the Airport issue was because it
was a short-term issue of 18 months; that if the proposed
issue were done at this time, the rate would be 7% or
less; and the window for completing the transaction closes
about April 4, 1991.
Mayor/Chairman stated that the trepidations he previously
stated still stand regarding a deadline requirement
predicated on IBM coming through for the next seven years;
that he was hopeful it would happen, but recognized the
heavy responsibility on SENCA to make that delivery; that
without the seven year package, the City will have an
expanded facility and nothing supporting it; that he is
also concerned about the construction deadline, and based
on his experience, it rarely comes in on time, and IBM
has said that future commitment is based on completing
the project on schedule.

the financing for expansion of the golf course; noting

a) Patricia Cyrus, representing Desert Rail Authority, opposed inclusion of the Prairie
Schooner site in the plat; that a number of letters have been sent regarding the
apparent predetermined decision about the property without competitive bidding or
public hearing on the city-owned site; that the action conveys the site without a fair
and unbiased hearing; that she objected to giving the proceeds to the gaining project,
and that the proceeds, which she estimated at $1.2 - $1.5 million should come back
to the City of Palm Springs; that DRA is interested in purchasing the lot for a station
which would directly benefit the residents and business and she urged a no vote on
this matter.
' LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
1. REFINANCING OF 1987 CBD BOND ISSUE; OF PORTION OF 1991 SERIES B ISSUES;
AND NEW ISSUANCE IN PA2 (TAHQUITZ-ANDREAS)OF A NEW DEBT
Recommendation: That the Agency authorize the refunding of the 1987 CBD Tax Allocation
Bonds and the 1991 Series B Tax Allocation Bonds, excluding the Housing Fund portion, and
the issuance of new debt for the Tahquitz Andreas Project area, for a total authorization not
to exceed $26 million, at an interest rate not to exceed 8%, (1994 Series A Tax Allocation
Bonds), and approve a Fiscal Agent Agreement, Escrow Agreements, Official Statements, and (155-
a Cotmnitment Agreement and Purchase Contract, authorizing the Executive Director to set 004)
the final terms of the sale of the bonds, approving the payment of costs of issuing the bonds
and making certain determinations related thereto:
In answer to question by the Chair, City Attorney stated that regaling the statement by Ms.
Cyrus, he has had letters from her regarding Desert Rail Authority's plat, and has indicated
that the Prairie Schooner site is under discussion in terms of gaining and critical to the Tribe
to make it happen, and without the site, gaining probably would not go forward; that there is
no determination being made this date by any of the agencies to a commitment of that property
to the project; that negotiations are in progress with the Tribe on a development agreement,
which cannot be final until after a public hearing thereon by the Agency; at which time, the
Agency may consider all testimony and decide whether to go ahead; and that the proposed
actions are distinct from that consideration.
In answer to question by the Agency, Director of Finance reported that the site is already
encumbered relative to the convention center bond issue, and the new issue would provide
funds to relieve that encumbrance. He reviewed his memorandum, explaining that future tax
increment from the Tahquitz-Andreas Project area would be pledged to secure the bond issue;
that the overall reduced savings should be about $1.8 million, contingent on the interest rate
at the time of sale, which will be used for land acquisition and other expenses related to the
gaming casino; and that there is no general fund obligation involved, and the issue is similar
to a home refinancing.

1. REFINANCING (Continued)
In answer to question by the Agency, he explained how insurance of the issue is related; and
stated that the actions of the various agencies would authorize the sale, however, until the
Council holds a TEFRA hearing, such actions are not final, but allow the staff to do the
preliminary work to move forward quickly on interest rates.
Assistant City Attorney Marticorena amplified on the same question, noting that during the
interim, staff will be dealing with the rating companies and the insurance companies, from the
assurance that the Council generally is supportive and recognizing the limitation on the action.
Agency Member Hodges stated that she would vote against the recommendation, because she
did not think it proper to act prior to the public hearing, and it appears the Agency is not
paying attention to the public input.
Chair stated he disagreed since the process is only being stated, and the Council will weigh
all information as part of the hearing.
Resolution 929(Agency) and Res 10 (Financing Authority) as recommended, were presented;
after which, it was moved by Lyons, seconded by Schlendorf (Agency), and moved by
Schlendorf seconded by Lyons (Authority) and carried by the following vote, that R929 and

LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
L PSFA 1991 SERIES B HOUSING FUND ISSUE
Recommendation: That the Agency approve amendments to the bond documents to allow
pledge of housing set aside revenue from the Tahquitz-Andreas, Oasis, Highland Gateway
and City-wide Project Areas (PA2, 5, 7 & 9) as additional security of the above bond
series debt service.
Director of Finance reviewed details of his report, noting that pledge of the housing set
aside funds to this bond issue will forestall added costs because of the potential change
in the bond rating as a result of the series being placed on credit watch by Standard &
Poor's. He stated that without any action on dre part of the Authority and Agency, the
rating will be lowered, possibly to a speculative grade category; that the down side of 155-
pledging the remainder of housing funds which are not already pledged is that could 004)
become more difficult to bond against future housing funds; and that there will not be
additional out of pocket costs for the City as a result of the proposed action.
In answer to questions by the Authority, he stated that the discussion with S&P included
whether there would be any guarantee not to reduce the rating if the action is taken, and
that there was no such guarantee, although such reduction would occur if no action is
taken, and he thought the worse case would be a reduction from A to A-, but that was not
an absolute certainty or guarantee; that future bonding may be possible if future tax
increment revenues increase, but not against existing housing funds; and that the action
could be reversed in the future, however, it would require approval of the trustee and
proof that there was sufficient money to cover the cost.
Resolution 12, as recommended, was presented; after which, it was moved by Barnes,
seconded by Spurgin, and carried by the following vote, that R12 be adopted:

PUBLIC HEARING:
' 1. REFINANCING 1987 (POLICE/COGENERATION) AND 1991 (MUNICIPAL GOLF
COURSE) BOND ISSUES
Recommendation: That the Council conduct required TEFRA hearing to consider possible
issuance by the Financing Authority of 1996 Refunding Certificates of Participation, in
an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $27 million; to be used, in part, to refinance
prior Certificates of Participation for the above issues. It is recommended that the
Financing Authority adopt appropriate actions related thereto.
Director of Finance & Treasurer reported that the action is to refinancing two issues, ie.,
the Police Building/Cogeneration Plant issue and the 1991 Golf course issue, by
combining both issues into a single issue, which together will receive a Triple A rating
and be insured; that it will reduce significant cash flow immediately, and over the life of
the issue.
Suzanne Harrell, Rod Gunn &. Associates, stated that the expected reduction in interest
on the 1991 issue is from 7.6% to 5.9%; that there should be a $200,000 cash flow
benefit, or 4000 rounds of golf less than that needed to currently break even; that Stone
& Youngberg expect to price the bonds, and close the sale before the end of the month.
Chairman/Mayor declared the hearing open.
Dick Sroda, resident, stated that the 1987 issue was refinanced once, and there is $9
million owing on it, and it should be paid in 2006; that the golf course has not paid $1
million, and still owes $13 million; that combined they equal $22 million; that there is no
disclosure as to how much the refinancing will cost; that he questioned why the action is
needed; that the debt will encumber future generations for 30 years; that the action is not
consistent with campaign promises made by Councilmembers; and that he questioned if
the money was to be used for other purposes.

the money was to be used for other purposes.
Fred Ebeling, resident, questioned if the City was one of special interest, or of people
who pay the bills; that he feels isolated; that spending is occurring with reckless abandon;
and that he did not think the Council was interested in hearing from the public, and only
did so as a legal requirement.
Darrell Meeks, resident, stated that the action places a burden on future Councils, and
questioned how much the issue will cost; that such information should be made public,
with time for the public to review it; that there will not be an increase in the interest rate
before the Presidential election in November; and that he questioned whose idea the
refinancing was.
Steve Vericker, resident, spoke in favor of the action, concluding that it is the only viable
action the Council can take; that there is $5 million unsecured loans against the golf
course, from other City funds, which it cannot repay; that there should be a task force set
up to determine how this situation happened, and to make certain it never recurs; and that
there is no savings in the issue, only a deferral of payment.
Bette Tmninello, resident, suggested that the Council look at the subject from the
perspective of a mortgage loan, and reminded the Council that a 6% interest doubles the
debt in 12 years.
There were no further appearances, and the hearing was closed.
In answer to question by Council, Ms. Harold stated that the cost of the issue is
$430,000, the insurance is $400,000, and the underwriter fee is $200,000; that the pre-
payment premium is $180,000 for the 1987 issue and $300,000 on the 1991 issue, and
there is some cost associated with interest differential limits on how much can be made;
that the golf course could not qualify for the insurance, but with the other facilities, it
takes on the character of a more substantial municipal facility; that there would be no
savings without the insurance; that cash flow is the most significant benefit for doing the
refinancing, i.e., in the first year, the debt payment will be reduced $600,000-700,000,
and annually it might be as high as $800,000 for the next nine years; that after the ninth
year, it will be a larger debt service than there would have been without the refinancing.
She explained "net present value savings," and that after 30 years, the savings will be
about$260,560;that after re-turning the calculations this date, she felt the savings would
be about$400,000 higher than that shown in the report- the NPVS about$600,000. She
stated that changes in laws were taken into account; that the Palmer management contract
is not affected by the refinancing, and does not require re-negotiation; and that she
expected the actual issue will be about $24.5 million.
City Attorney explained that the idea for the refinancing stemmed from a suggestion by
the bond underwriter for A.D. 155, which has a problem with cancellation of leases and
some financial problems regarding the assessment district, with the idea to apply the
savings from the refinancing to the assessment district; that when the City looked at losing
a substantial amount on the golf course, and the projected revenues were not being met,
it was thought that the savings could apply to the golf course which would bring it close
to breaking even; and that while it initially was conceived for a different purpose, it was
very creative, and it became clear how to use the funds.
Mayor summarized that the debt would be stabilized after the first year, and existing costs
reduced; that there will be an overall savings of $1 million; that the first year will be
$600,000-700,000, and$800,000 for the following, through the ninth year; the issue will
be insured; the rating at Triple A; and a much lower interest rate.

COURSE) BOND ISSUES (Continued)
Councilmember Hodges stated that she has not liked the idea since it was originally
presented, and still does not like it; that the City has the possibility of retiring a debt in
ten years, which would free revenue to do something with it; that there will not be any
more in thirty years; that she agreed there are some savings in the first nine years, but
after that, a larger debt will be assumed, at a time when the 1987 issue would have been
paid; that in the short term, it may make sense, but not in the long term, and definitely
not 30 years from now; and that the only gain will be more debt, for a longer time.
Council Resolutions 18905 and 18906, as recommended, and Financing Authority
Resolution 13, as recommended, were presented; after which, it was moved by Barnes,
seconded by Spurgin, and carried by the following vote, that Resolutions 18905, 18906,

the past; that another refunding does place the City in a financial liability; that the IRS is
investigating "yield burning" along with the Security Economics Commission at thousands
of cities; that if the Council does choose to proceed, the City Attorney should be asked for
an opinion; and that without independent counsel the City may find itself in deep trouble.
Darrell Meeks, resident, stated that the report states that to refund the bonds will save
$500,000 the first year; that there are no records of the last meeting of the Finance
Committee; that there was an article in the Wall Street Journal regarding "yield burning";
that the Council should read the article; and that the matter should be addressed with an

term of the issue a savings of$750,000 would be realized; and in answer to questions by
Authority added that the term of the bonds would remain the same; that the amount of the
refinance was increased due to the inclusion of all present bonds; that rates are lower; that
the end result is that the City will be paying less to pay off the bonds over the life of the
issue; that the bonds can be called early, to allow selling of the Convention Center; and that
the issue of yield burning can be addressed by Bill Mortecorena, Assistant City Attorney.
Assistant City Attorney stated that there has been a practice of underwriters to provide a
guarantee investment contract; that this guarantees payment over time; that the IRS
prohibits Cities from making money, and that certain underwriters would sell the bonds at
below market rate; that would then allow a "pocketing" of the difference between the
bonding and the selling price;

Recommendation: That the Authority approve the refinancing of the 1991
' Convention Center Bonds, utilizing one of three options, none to exceed an
issuance of$40,000,000.
Board Member Jones stated that it is difficult to negotiate a private/public
partnership when the City is already stating it has $6.7 million to fund the parking
structure; that while not opposed to the refinancing, the savings should be used
to offset the $2.3 million budget deficit for the coming year; that the refinancing
may be time sensitive, but there will be another opportunity in December of this
year or May of next year; that it is not clear where interest rates are headed; and
that right now they are down, but this may not be the best opportunity that opens
up.
Board Member Hodges stated that Councilmember Jones may be correct in his
analysis of the loan payments, but that the concern is, if nothing is done to
address the major problem of parking downtown, the City will lose even more
than the $300,000 it could save in the refinancing; that at this time one has to
drive around to try to find a place to park; and that with parking at a premium, in
order to protect the revenue an alternative must be found.

Board Member Jones stated that Councilmember Hodges is correct, but that the
