 Just as the General Fund and Utility System original debt service requirements were structured
to account for the useful life of the projects, the then outstanding debt service and the tax rate
and system net available for debt at the time of issuance, the proposed refunding structures
would be viewed in the same manner to try to achieve the optimal savings and resulting debt
service requirements
 To assist the City Council in analyzing this information, we have undertaken different analysis
relative to the proposed savings structure based on the original bond issue
 Our first step in refunding analysis is to solve for level and proportional savings; with our next
step being to allocate the proposed savings within the context of the respective funding source
for the debt service

“Advance” Refunding versus “Current” Refunding
16
 An advance refunding occurs when the refunding issue is sold more than 90 days in advance of
the date on which the outstanding bonds can be called. If a refunding issue is sold with less than
90 days in advance of the call date, the refunding bond issue is considered a current refunding.
 Tax law allows a bond issue to be advance refunded only once:
– Example: if the proposed Series 2016 Refunding Bonds were to advance refund the Series
2007, a subsequent refunding bond issue would be prohibited from advance refunding the
hypothetical Series 2016 Refunding Bonds.
 By waiting until there are less than 90 days until the August 15, 2017 call date, the City preserves
the option to advance refund the proposed Series 2016 Refunding Bonds in the future.
 Another potential consideration related to an advanced refunding is Negative Arbitrage.

 Refunding Bonds in advance of the call date, an
“advance refunding”, produces an “opportunity cost”
otherwise known as “Negative Arbitrage”, particularly
in a low interest rate environment.
 To the extent the escrow earns less than the
arbitrage yield on the refunded bonds, the escrow
must be over-funded with refunding bond proceeds
in order to provide for the scheduled principal and
interest payments on the refunded bonds.
 As the call date approaches on the refunded bonds,
the City’s opportunity cost is minimized, but the
refunding is subject to interest rate risk as time
passes.

Example: Refunds Series 2007, Level savings scenario shown
for illustrative purposes.
 When we analyze the cost effectiveness of advance refunding, we calculate Negative Arbitrage as a
percent of Net Present Value Savings. We believe that the Negative Arbitrage as a percent of Net
Present Value Savings should be targeted to not exceed more than 25%.
