f�, C-,l -1 <br />Memo <br />Tv: Mayor and City Council <br />Bill Malinen, City Manager <br />From: Chris Miller, Finance Director <br />Date: May 19, 2008 <br />Re: Financing the Ice Arena Refrigeration System <br />Attachment B <br />Introduction <br />In a memo dated November 19, 2007 and in a Request for Council Action dated February 25, <br />2008, Staff submitted the following funding recommendations regarding the replacement of the <br />Arena refrigeration system: <br />1} As a primary funding source, the City should seek non -local grants or other funding <br />sources to offset the incremental costs of forgoing a conventional refrigeration system <br />in favor of a geothermal system. To the extent that non -local monies are insufficient to <br />pay for the project costs, the City should use all available funds in the Building <br />Replacement Fund. <br />2) As a secondary funding source, the City should temporarily borrow monies from the <br />Street Infrastructure Replacement Fund sufficient to pay for any remaining costs <br />3) Beginning in 2009, the City Council should establish a dedicated property tax levy to <br />repay all borrowed monies to the Street Replacement Fund within a 3 -year period <br />At the time the earlier recommendation was made, the estimated project costs were $025,000 - <br />$1.1 million, as measured in 2000 dollars. Since then, the project cost has increased to an <br />estimated $1.5 - $2.2 million in today's dollars. The Building Replacement Fund has a current <br />balance of $300,000, and while the city did seek a State appropriation for the geothermal <br />system, it was not approved in the Bonding Bill. As a result, the City will have to secure <br />approximately $1.2 - $1.9 million dollars above and beyond what is available in the Building <br />Replacement Fund. <br />Given current project estimates and the added uncertainty of City's ability to sufficiently <br />increase the operating levy to repay the internal loan, the City may have to rely on the use of <br />general obligation bonds or equipment certificates to pay for the improvements. <br />
