REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENDITURES FOR

 THIBODAUX CAREER & TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOL

 

A resolution declaring the official intent of the Lafayette Parish School Board to expend general fund or sales tax revenues for purposes for which the bonds are anticipated to be issued and to later reimburse such expenditures from bond proceeds.

 

            WHEREAS, the Parish School Board of the Parish of Lafayette, State of Louisiana (the "School Board") presently intends to issue within the next twelve month period not exceeding $40,000,000 of Public School Bonds (the "Bonds") for the purpose of constructing and acquiring capital improvements, including renovations, additions and related improvements, acquisition of equipment, machinery and furnishings necessary for the conversion of the N. P. Moss Middle School into the new Thibodaux Comprehensive Career & Technical High School, title to which shall be in the public (the "Project"); and

 

            WHEREAS, the proceeds of the Bonds (the interest on which will be excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes) will be used for the Project; and

 

            WHEREAS, in order to expedite the completion of the Project, certain expenditures must be made prior to the delivery of the Bonds; and

 

            WHEREAS, in order to provide for the reimbursement of such expenditures without endangering the tax exempt status of interest on the Bonds, it is necessary to officially recognize such anticipated expenditures as provided in Proposed Treasury Regulation 1.103-17(e), and to express the official intent of this School Board to reimburse said expenditures from the proceeds of the aforesaid tax-exempt bonds;

 

            NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Parish School Board of the Parish of Lafayette, State of Louisiana:

 

            SECTION 1.   That it is anticipated that expenditures of approximately $40,000,000 to pay for capital improvements to the public school system set forth in the preamble above will be made from the School Board's Capital Improvement Fund, Construction Fund or from sales and use tax revenues in anticipation of reimbursement from tax-exempt bond proceeds.

 

            SECTION 2.   That the School Board intends to issue the Bonds within one year of the expenditure of moneys on the Project and to use a portion of the proceeds of the Bonds and to reimburse the Capital Improvement Fund, Construction Fund or Sales and Use Tax Fund expenditures described in Section 1 hereof.  The Bonds shall be payable solely from and secured by the avails or proceeds of the one percent (1%) sales and use tax authorized at a special election held within the corporate boundaries of the School Board on September 18, 1965 and levied by the Sales Tax Ordinance adopted by the School Board on October 6, 1965.

 

 

            This resolution having been submitted to a vote, the vote thereon was as follows:

 

YEAS:        Tommy Angelle, Gregory Awbrey, Mark Babineaux, Hunter Beasley, Kermit Bouillion, Tehmi Chassion, Shelton J. Cobb, Mark Cockerham and Rae Trahan

 

NAYS:        None

 

ABSENT:    None

 

            And the resolution was declared adopted on the 20th day of July, 2011.
