FA- 32 A RESOLUTION OF THE PALM DESERT FINANCING AUTHORITY DECLARING ITS INTENT TO REIMBURSE EXPENDITURES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COST OF THE ACQUISITION OF A PUBLIC PARKING EASEMENT TO FINANCE THE COST OF THE INSTALLATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF PARKING STRUCTURES FROM THE PROCEEDS OF BONDS THE PALM DESERT FINANCING AUTHORITY HEREBY FINDS, DETERMINES, RESOLVES AND ORDERS AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency intends to use tax increment revenues currently on hand to pay for the acquisition of a public parking easement to finance the installation and construction of two parking structures, and other certain parking spaces. Section 2. The Agency intends that the foregoing described expenditures be reimbursed to the Agency from the proceeds of bonds or other obligations to be issued by the Financing Authority, by the Agency, or by a related public entity. The Financing Authority and the Agency expect that all expenditures related to the parking structures will be reimbursed with the proceeds of such bonds. Section 3. Section 1.150-2 of the Treasury Regulations governs the allocation of expenditures of a reimbursement bond. A reimbursement bond is that portion of an issue of bonds (or other obligations) allocated to reimburse an original expenditure (i.e., an expenditure for a governmental purpose that is originally paid from a source other than a reimbursement bond)that was paid before the date of issue of the bonds. Section 1.150-2 provides rules to determine when an allocation of proceeds of bonds to reimburse an original expenditure will be treated as an expenditure of those proceeds. Section 4. In order for such an allocation of those proceeds to be treated as an expenditure, the issuer (or in certain cases, a conduit borrower) of the bonds must, in accordance with Section 1.150-2, adopt an official intent for the original expenditure. The official intent is a declaration of intention by the issuer to reimburse the original expenditure with proceeds of bonds. Such official intent is declared in Section 2 hereof. Section 5. The maximum principal amount of bonds or other obligations expected to be issued for the above-described costs associated with the acquisition of a public parking easement to finance the installation and construction of two parking structures, and other certain parking spaces is $12,000,000.
