A. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Mr. McCarthy recalled for the Agency Board that it was requested by both the
County and Oversight Board to review Agency bonds for potentially refunding them
to create savings for them. There has been a good deal of work on this and staff
should be having the initial action at the next meeting. He said a memo from the
Finance Department is forthcoming, and the Agency Board will have an
opportunity to respond to any questions leading up to it. He said it will be a fairly
significant action, but it didn't represent a financing by the City, adding it was
basically money where the savings would accrue to sister taxing agencies, school
districts, and College of the Desert, who would be the primary beneficiaries of the
action, along with the County.
