E. Mayor’s Report
1. Resolution Authorizing the Issuance and Sale of $7,270,000 General Obligation Promissory Notes,
Series 2026A
Paul Boening from Ehlers spoke about the sale being held today and the presentation of the Pre-Sale
Report that was at a previous Common Council meeting. There were 9 bids, meaning it was
competitive. The city received a very favorable interest rate as a result. There was a buffer to their
projection in the pre-sale information. He spoke about the bids' interest rates and the difference from
the pre-sale estimates. The lowest bid was 3.23% and was a premium bid, meaning the bidder bid a
higher value than the value of the notes themselves and that it saved the city about $220,000 in
interest costs and included the underwriter's discount. The city will have about $127,000 in additional
funds for project costs or debt service costs. He discussed the city's Debt Service Tax Rate, the Sale
Report and attachments, the Moody's report, and other charts included in the report.
Alderperson Bailey and Mr. Boening discussed the difference between promissory notes and bonds.
There was a law change. The process for issuing bonds was not as efficient as notes. Bonds had to be
dictated for very specific purposes. There wasn't as much flexibility with bonds. For notes, you still
have to designate funds, but dollars can be shifted to be used efficiently.
Motion by Alderperson Drzewiecki, seconded by Alderperson Bailey to approve. On a roll call vote,
motion carried unanimously.
There was a discussion that they were awarding the sale to the lowest bidder.
F. Aldermanic Reports
Alderperson Bailey presented the Tree Commission report and said that Arbor Day is in the works. There
will be city-wide leaf pick-up around the first week of April. They will start on the east side and work west.
