will generate the amount necessary to refund the current bonds. The maturity date on the bonds is currently December 1, 2031 (fiscal year 2032) and that date will remain. The City’s current bond rating for Special Obligation bonds has reconfirmed at AA+ (AAA when issuing general obligation bonds). This credit rating allows the lowest interest costs for the lifetime of the bonds.

The competitive bond sale occurred today at 10:00 a.m. and was very successful. The City received bids from 12 bidders, with several bids being quite close in amount. The bids are evaluated based on the lowest True Interest Cost (TIC) which provides the City with the lowest cost of total debt service. The final sale amount was $5,010,000 which provided the City $575,000 in savings over the remaining life of the bonds, which is greater than expected. The successful bidder was Fifth Third Securities, Inc.

The proposed ordinance and exhibits have been updated to reflect the results of the sale. The ordinance will require an amendment for these changes prior to a final vote to approve the sale of the bonds.

Recommendation is to amend the proposed Bill No. 6864.1 and to hold a second and final reading of an ordinance authorizing the sale, issuance and delivery of Special Obligation Refunding bonds in the amount of $5,010,000.

Todd Goffoy, Piper Sandler, and Mark Grimm, Piper Jaffray, were in attendance (virtually) to answer questions.

Motion made by Alderman Lintz to approve the amendment of Bill No. 6864 to Bill No. 6864.1 to reflect the changes. Alderman Berkowitz seconded.

The motion passed unanimously on a voice vote.

City Attorney O’Keefe reads Bill No. 6864 as amended by Bill No. 6864.1, second reading, an Ordinance authorizing the sale, issuance, and delivery of Special Obligation Refunding Bonds Series 2021 by title only.

The motion passed on a roll call vote: Alderman Lintz – Aye; Alderman Berkowitz – Aye; Alderman McAndrew – Aye; Alderman Buse – Aye; Alderman Patel – Aye; Alderman Feder – Aye; and Mayor Harris – Aye. The bill, having received majority approval was adopted and became Ordinance No. 6723 of the City of Clayton.

The list of records staff is proposing to dispose is the Prosecutor Attorney Files (closed) - 2019 Traffic, 2017 Municipal, and Police Reports – 2004 through 2009.

Question was raised with concerns in the destruction of the 2017 and 2019 municipal records in terms of the “age” of the records and also as it relates to gathering future data from those years.

It was noted that the records are prosecuting attorney files which are separate from the court and that the records have been confirmed by the City Clerk as eligible for destruction.
