RESOLUTION RATIFYING AND CONFIRMING SALE OF $15,700,000 ELECTRIC
REVENUE REFUNDING BONDS OF THE CITY OF DOVER (SERIES 2018) AND
RELATED MATTERS
Mr. Anderson moved for the adoption of the Resolution Ratifying and Confirming the Sale of
$15,700,000 Electric Revenue Refunding Bonds of the City of Dover (Series 2018) and Related
Matters, seconded by Mr. Cole.
Ms. Lori Peddicord, Controller/Treasurer, explained that the proposed Resolution allows for ratifying
and confirming the sale of $15,700,000 of electric revenue refunding bonds of the City of Dover
(Series 2018) and related matters. She informed members that 12 bids were electronically received
and opened on August 8, 2018 and, according to Mrs. Donna Mitchell, City Manager, that was the
greatest number of bids received during her tenure with the City. Ms. Peddicord stated that the
closing was scheduled for August 21, 2018 at 10:00 a.m. and the City had a present value savings
of $2.6M.
Responding to Mr. Neil, Mrs. Mitchell stated that the City’s rating for electric revenue bonds is AA
and she thought that the number of bids the City received resulted from a combination of the City’s
rating as well as the current market. She noted that she thought that the market was the big driver
in the bonds and the interest rates that the City received on the bids.
The motion to adopt the Resolution Ratifying and Confirming the Sale of $15,700,000 Electric
Revenue Refunding Bonds of the City of Dover (Series 2018) and Related Matters was
unanimously carried.
Mr. Neil moved for adjournment, seconded by Mr. Anderson and unanimously carried.
Meeting adjourned at 5:35 p.m.
