Action (Consent): 4.3 BOARD: Resolution 04-19-1955 Increase in the 2019-2020 MFP-Aguillard/Centanni

Resolution: That the Board approve Resolution 04-19-1955 Increase in the 2019-2020 MFP.

The following resolution was offered by Britt Latiolais and seconded by Tommy Angelle:

WHEREAS, the Minimum Foundation Program (MFP) establishes the state funding component of the K12 public education system in Louisiana, and the Legislature is required to fully fund the formula;

WHEREAS, there was no increase in the base per-pupil allocation for the school years of 2009-10, 2010-11, 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2013-14;

WHEREAS, in the 2014 Regular Session the MFP base per-pupil allocation increased from $3,855 to $3,961 for the 2014-15 school year;

WHEREAS, had the MFP base per-pupil allocation been increased each year by the anticipated 2.75%, the 2019-2020 MFP would be $5,056;

WHEREAS, BESE has unanimously recommended a 1.375% increase in the base per-pupil allocation for 2019-2020, raising the base per-pupil allocation from $3,961 to $4,015;

WHEREAS, BESE’s recommendation also includes additional funding in Level 3 of the MFP dedicated to an increase in salary for teachers and support workers in the amount of $1,000 and $500, respectively;

WHEREAS, the Lafayette Parish School Board has been absorbing ever-increasing operational costs, from health insurance, technology, the security of students, curriculum aligned with the state standards, and the increasing demands of the state accountability system, without increased state funding;

WHEREAS, BESE’s unanimously recommended MFP will benefit local school districts in every parish, as well as every public charter school in the state;

WHERAS, the Lafayette Parish School Board appreciates that BESE’s recommended MFP divides the increased funding between a dedicated teacher and support worker pay raise and an increase in per-pupil funding, the recommended increase will still help meet the ever-increasing costs of providing a public education;

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lafayette Parish School Board supports the unanimously approved MFP adopted by BESE to increase the MFP Level 1 per-pupil allocation by 1.375% and to provide funding for a dedicated teacher and support worker pay raise in Level 3 of the MFP;

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Lafayette Parish School Board urges the Legislature to approve the unanimously approved MFP by BESE for the 2019-20 school year;

FINALLY, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Lafayette Parish School Board directs the Superintendent to forward a copy of this Resolution to each member of the Lafayette Parish Legislative delegation and to Governor John Bel Edwards.

WHEREAS, this Parish School Board of the Parish of Lafayette, State of Louisiana (the "Issuer") adopted a resolution on January 17, 2019 (the "Prior Resolution"), providing for the issuance and sale of Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 2019 (the "Bonds"); and

WHEREAS, the Secretary of the Issuer has executed the Bond Purchase Agreement as authorized by the Prior Resolution; and

WHEREAS, the Issuer now desires to amend the Prior Resolution, excluding the acquisition of land without prior approval from the State Bond Commission; and

WHEREAS, the form of Bond Purchase Agreement contained in the Prior Resolution was complete except for the amount, the maturities and interest rates born by the Bonds, date of the Bond Purchase Agreement, redemption provisions, date of the Preliminary Official Statement, date of delivery, conditions of rating from Standard & Poors Rating Services, signature page, Hold the Offering Price Provisions, Schedules I and II, its Exhibit A and its Schedule A; and

WHEREAS, a copy of the completed Bond Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

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

SECTION 1. Ratification of Bond Purchase Agreement. The Bond Purchase Agreement has met the parameters set forth in the Prior Resolution and accordingly, its execution and the redemption provisions provided for therein, are hereby ratified and approved.

SECTION 2. Amending the purpose of issuance. The Prior Resolution is hereby amended to preclude the use of Bond Proceeds to acquire real property without the prior approval of the State Bond Commission.

SECTION 3. Official Statement. The Issuer approves the form and content of the final Official Statement and hereby ratifies its execution by the Executive Officers of the Issuer and approves and authorizes delivery of such final Official Statement to the Purchaser (as defined in the Prior Resolution) for use in connection with the public offering of the Bonds.

SECTION 4. Any resolution in conflict herewith is hereby amended to the extent of such conflict.

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

The undersigned, Raymond James & Associates, Inc., of New Orleans, Louisiana (the "Underwriter"), offers to enter into this agreement with Parish School Board of the Parish of Lafayette, State of Louisiana (the "Issuer"), which, upon your acceptance of this offer, will be binding upon you and upon us.

This offer is made subject to your acceptance of this agreement on or before 11:59 p.m., New Orleans Time, on this date, which acceptance shall be evidenced by your execution of this Bond Purchase Agreement on behalf of the Issuer as a duly authorized official thereof.

Capitalized terms used, but not defined, herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Bond Resolution (as defined below).

1. The Bonds. Upon the terms and conditions and the basis of the respective representations and covenants set forth herein, the Underwriter hereby agrees to purchase from the Issuer, and the Issuer hereby agrees to sell and deliver to the Underwriter, all (but not less than all) of the above‑captioned bonds of the Issuer (the "Bonds"). The purchase price of the Bonds is set forth in Schedule I hereto (the "Purchase Price"). Such Purchase Price shall be paid at the Closing (hereinafter defined) in accordance with Section 7 hereof. The Bonds are to be issued by the Issuer, acting through the Parish School Board of the Parish of Lafayette, State of Louisiana, its governing authority (the "Governing Authority"), under and pursuant to, and are to be secured, on a complete parity with the Outstanding Parity Bonds, (as defined in the resolution adopted by the Governing Authority on January 17, 2019 (the "Bond Resolution")) and payable as set forth in the Bond Resolution. The Bonds are issued pursuant to R.S. 47.338.86, as amended, and other constitutional and statutory authority (the "Act"). The Bonds shall mature on the dates and shall bear interest at the fixed rates, all as described in Schedule II attached hereto. Furthermore, the Bonds and the Outstanding Parity Bonds are entitled to the benefit of a common debt service reserve fund in accordance with the terms of the Bond Resolution, which common reserve fund is being initially funded with bond proceeds.

(a) The Underwriter agrees to assist the Issuer in establishing the issue price of the Bonds and shall execute and deliver to the Issuer at Closing a certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, with such modifications and supporting pricing wires or equivalent communications as may be appropriate or necessary, in the reasonable judgment of the Underwriter, the Issuer and Bond Counsel, to accurately reflect, as applicable, the sales prices or the initial offering prices to the public of the Bonds. All actions to be taken by the Issuer under this section to establish the issue price of the Bonds may be taken on behalf of the Issuer by the Issuer’s municipal advisor, and any notice or report to be provided to the Issuer may be provided to the Issuer’s municipal advisor.

(b)Except as otherwise set forth in Schedule II attached hereto, the Issuer will treat the first price at which 10% of each maturity of the Bonds (the "10% test") is sold to the public as the issue price of that maturity (if different interest rates apply within a maturity, each separate CUSIP number within or bifurcated portion of that maturity will be subject to the 10% test). At or promptly after the execution of this Bond Purchase Agreement, the Underwriter shall report to the Issuer and Bond Counsel the price or prices at which it has sold to the public each maturity of Bonds. If at that time the 10% test has not been satisfied as to any maturity of the Bonds, the Underwriter agrees to promptly report to the Issuer the prices at which it sells the unsold Bonds of that maturity to the public. That reporting obligation shall continue, whether or not on April 18, 2019 (the "Closing Date") has occurred, until either (i) the Underwriter has sold all Bonds of that maturity or (ii) the 10% test has been satisfied as to the Bonds of that maturity, provided that the Underwriter’s reporting obligation after the Closing Date may be at reasonable period intervals or otherwise upon request of the Issuer or bond counsel.

(c) The Underwriter confirms that it has offered the Bonds to the public on or before the date of this Bond Purchase Agreement at the offering prices (the "initial offering price") set forth in Schedule II attached hereto, except as otherwise set forth therein. Schedule II also sets forth, as of the date of this Bond Purchase Agreement, the maturities, if any, of the Bonds for which the 10% test has not been satisfied and for which the Issuer and the Underwriter agree that the restrictions set forth in the next sentence shall apply, which will allow the Issuer to treat the initial offering price to the public of each such maturity as of the sale date as the issue price of that maturity (the "hold-the-offering-price rule"). So long as the hold-the-offering-price rule remains applicable to any maturity of the Bonds, the Underwriter will neither offer nor sell unsold Bonds of that maturity to any person at a price that is higher than the initial offering price to the public during the period starting on the sale date and ending on the earlier of the following:

(2) the date on which the Underwriter has sold at least 10% of that maturity of the Bonds to the public at a price that is no higher than the initial offering price to the public.

The Underwriter shall promptly advise the Issuer when it has sold 10% of that maturity of the Bonds to the public at a price that is no higher than the initial offering price to the public, if that occurs prior to the close of the fifth (5th) business day after the sale date.

(d) The Underwriter confirms that any selling group agreement and any retail distribution agreement relating to the initial sale of the Bonds to the public, together with the related pricing wires, contains or will contain language obligating each dealer who is a member of the selling group and each broker-dealer that is a party to such retail distribution agreement, as applicable, to (A) report the prices at which it sells to the public the unsold Bonds of each maturity allotted to it, whether or not the Closing Date has occurred, until either all Bonds of that maturity allotted to it have been sold or it is notified by the Underwriter that the 10% test has been satisfied as to the Bonds of that maturity, provided that the reporting obligation after the Closing Date may be at reasonable period intervals or otherwise upon request of the Underwriter and (B) comply with the hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable, if and for so long as directed by the Underwriter. The Issuer acknowledges that, in making the representation set forth in this subsection, the Underwriter will rely on (i) in the event a selling group has been created in connection with the initial sale of the Bonds to the public, the agreement of each dealer who is a member of the selling group to comply with the hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable, as set forth in a selling group agreement and the related pricing wires, and (ii) in the event that a retail distribution agreement was employed in connection with the initial sale of the Bonds to the public, the agreement of each broker-dealer that is a party to such agreement to comply with the hold-the-offering-price rule, if applicable, as set forth in the retail distribution agreement and the related pricing wires. The Issuer further acknowledges that the Underwriter shall not be liable for the failure of any dealer who is a member of a selling group, or of any broker-dealer that is a party to a retail distribution agreement, to comply with its corresponding agreement regarding the hold-the-offering-price rule as applicable to the Bonds.

(e) The Underwriter acknowledges that sales of any Bonds to any person that is a related party to the Underwriter shall not constitute sales to the public for purposes of this section. Further, for purposes of this section:

(ii)"underwriter" (when not referring to the Underwriter) means (A) any person that agrees pursuant to a written contract with the Issuer (or with the lead underwriter to form an underwriting syndicate) to participate in the initial sale of the Bonds to the public and (B) any person that agrees pursuant to a written contract directly or indirectly with a person described in clause (A) to participate in the initial sale of the Bonds to the public (including a member of a selling group or a party to a retail distribution agreement participating in the initial sale of the Bonds to the public),

(iii) a purchaser of any of the Bonds is a "related party" to an underwriter if the underwriter and the purchaser are subject, directly or indirectly, to (i) at least 50% common ownership of the voting power or the total value of their stock, if both entities are corporations (including direct ownership by one corporation of another), (ii) more than 50% common ownership of their capital interests or profits interests, if both entities are partnerships (including direct ownership by one partnership of another), or (iii) more than 50% common ownership of the value of the outstanding stock of the corporation or the capital interests or profit interests of the partnership, as applicable, if one entity is a corporation and the other entity is a partnership (including direct ownership of the applicable stock or interests by one entity of the other), and

(iv) "sale date" means the date of execution of this Bond Purchase Agreement by all parties.

3. Representative. The individual signing on behalf of the Underwriter below is duly authorized to execute this Bond Purchase Agreement on behalf of the Underwriter.

4. Preliminary Official Statement and Official Statement. The Issuer hereby ratifies and approves the lawful use of the Preliminary Official Statement, dated February 26, 2019, relating to the Bonds (the "Preliminary Official Statement") by the Underwriter prior to the date hereof and authorizes and approves the Official Statement and other pertinent documents referred to in Section 8 hereof to be lawfully used in connection with the offering and sale of the Bonds. The Issuer has previously provided the Underwriter with a copy of the Preliminary Official Statement. As of its date, the Preliminary Official Statement has been deemed final by the Issuer for purposes of SEC Rule 15c2-12 (the "Rule") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The Issuer has delivered a certificate to the Underwriter, dated April 18, 2019, to evidence compliance with the Rule to the date hereof, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B.

The Issuer, within seven (7) business days of the date hereof, shall deliver to the Underwriter sufficient copies of the Official Statement dated the date hereof relating to the Bonds, executed on behalf of the Issuer by the duly authorized officer(s) of the Governing Authority (the "Official Statement"), as the Underwriter may reasonably request as necessary to comply with paragraph (b)(4) of the Rule, with Rule G-32 and with all other applicable rules of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the "MSRB").

The Issuer hereby covenants that, if during the period ending on the 25^th day after the "End of the Underwriting Period" (as defined in the Rule), or such other period as may be agreed to by the Issuer and the Underwriter, any event occurs of which the Issuer has actual knowledge and which would cause the Official Statement to contain an untrue statement of material fact or to omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the Issuer shall notify the Underwriter in writing, and if, in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriter, such event requires an amendment or supplement to the Official Statement, the Issuer promptly will amend or supplement, or cause to be amended or supplemented, the Official Statement in a form and in a manner approved by the Underwriter and consented to by the Issuer so that the Official Statement, under such caption, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances existing at the time the Official Statement is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading. If such notification shall be given subsequent to the date of Closing, the Issuer also shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, such additional legal opinions, certificates, instruments and other documents as the Underwriter may reasonably deem necessary to evidence the truth and accuracy of any such supplement or amendment to the Official Statement.

5. Additional Requirements of the Issuer and Underwriter. The Underwriter agrees to promptly file a copy of the final Official Statement, including any supplements prepared by the Issuer as required herein, with the MSRB through the operation of the Electronic Municipal Market Access repository within one (1) business day after receipt from the Issuer, but by no later than the date of Closing, in such manner and accompanied by such forms as are required by the MSRB, in accordance with the applicable MSRB Rules, and shall maintain such books and records as required by MSRB Rules with respect to filing of the Official Statement.

Any separate counsel retained by such indemnified party shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm for each such indemnified party (to the extent clause (ii) of the preceding sentence is applicable), and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred.

This certificate is furnished by Raymond James & Associates, Inc. (Raymond James), in connection with the purchase of $25,000,000 aggregate principal amount Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 2019 (the "Bonds"), of the Parish School Board of the Parish of Lafayette, State of Louisiana (the "Issuer"), at negotiated sale. The undersigned hereby certifies as set forth below with respect to the sale and issuance of the Bonds:

1. The undersigned is duly authorized to execute this certificate on behalf of Raymond James & Associates, Inc., and has been fully apprised of the facts and circumstances forming the basis of this certificate.

2. (a) As of the date of this certificate, for each Maturity of the General Rule Maturities, the first price at which at least 10% of such Maturity was sold to the Public is the respective price listed in Schedule A.

(b) Raymond James & Associates, Inc. offered the Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturities to the Public for purchase at the respective initial offering prices listed in Schedule A (the "Initial Offering Prices") on or before the Sale Date. A copy of the pricing wire or equivalent communication for the Bonds is attached to this certificate as Schedule B.

(c) As set forth in the Bond Purchase Agreement, Raymond James & Associates, Inc. has agreed in writing that, (i) for each Maturity of the Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturities, it would neither offer nor sell any of the Bonds of such Maturity to any person at a price that is higher than the Initial Offering Price for such Maturity during the Holding Period for such Maturity (the "hold-the-offering-price rule"), and (ii) any selling group agreement shall contain the agreement of each dealer who is a member of the selling group, and any retail distribution agreement shall contain the agreement of each broker-dealer who is a party to the retail distribution agreement, to comply with the hold-the-offering-price rule. Pursuant to such agreement, no Underwriter (as defined below) has offered or sold any Maturity of the Hold‑the‑Offering Price Maturities at a price that is higher than the respective Initial Offering Price for that Maturity of the Bonds during the Holding Period.

3. Raymond James has (a) determined the aggregate purchase price of the Bonds to be $26,488,582.25, representing the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds equal to $25,000,000, plus a net premium of $1,651,082.25, less the underwriter's discount of $162,500.00; (b) has calculated the yield on the Bonds for arbitrage purposes to be 3.0886%; and (c) determined the weighted average maturity of the Bonds, calculated based on reoffering price, to be 18.867 years.

4. No Bonds were sold in exchange for property or rights to use any other types of property.

5. Raymond James further represents that, in our judgment, the amount required to be on deposit in the Reserve Fund established in connection with the Bonds is customary in connection with the issuance of securities of the general character of the Bonds and to permit an economically feasible borrowing rate on the Bonds independent of the benefit derived from the investment of moneys on deposit in such Reserve Fund. "Reserve Fund" as used herein means the Reserve Fund as defined in the Tax Compliance Certificate.

6. In addition to terms defined elsewhere herein, the terms below shall have the following meanings in this certificate:

(a) "General Rule Maturities" means those Maturities of the Bonds listed in Schedule A hereto as the "General Rule Maturities."

(b) "Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturities" means those Maturities of the Bonds listed in Schedule A hereto as the "Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturities."

(c) "Holding Period" means, with respect to a Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturity, the period starting on the Sale Date and ending on the earlier of (i) the close of the fifth business day after the Sale Date (which date shall be March 19, 2019, or (ii) the date on which the Underwriter has sold at least 10% of such Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturity to the Public at prices that are no higher than the Initial Offering Price for such Hold-the-Offering-Price Maturity.

(d) "Maturity" means Bonds with the same credit and payment terms. Bonds with different maturity dates, or Bonds with the same maturity date but different stated interest rates, are treated as separate maturities.

(e) "Public" means any person (including an individual, trust, estate, partnership, association, company, or corporation) other than an Underwriter or a related party to an Underwriter. The term "related party" for purposes of this certificate generally means any two or more persons who have greater than 50 percent common ownership, directly or indirectly.

(f) "Sale Date" means the first day on which there is a binding contract in writing for the sale of a Maturity of the Bonds. The Sale Date of the Bonds is March 12, 2019.

(g) "Tax Compliance Certificate" means the Tax Compliance Certificate for the Bonds to which this certificate is attached.

(h) "Underwriter" means, collectively, (i) any person that agrees pursuant to a written contract with the Issuer (or with the lead underwriter to form an underwriting syndicate) to participate in the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public, and (ii) any person that agrees pursuant to a written contract directly or indirectly with a person described in clause (i) of this paragraph to participate in the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public (including a member of a selling group or a party to a retail distribution agreement participating in the initial sale of the Bonds to the Public).

Action: 4.32 FINANCE: Resolution 04-19-1957 Sales & Use Tax Collection & Administration-Aguillard/Guidry

That the Board adopt a Resolution in support of a centralized sales tax collection.

WHEREAS the state of Louisiana is one of only two states in the country without a centralized sales tax collection system;

WHEREAS, in January 2017, the Louisiana Legislature’s blue-ribbon Task Force on Structural Changes in Budget and Tax Policy recommended the creation of “a uniform system of tax administration, collection and audit,” a recommendation echoed by economists and good government groups within the state;

WHEREAS the lack of centralized collection imposes an administrative burden on businesses that discourages their investment and expansion in Louisiana, including Lafayette Parish, thus depriving our economy of growth and the resulting revenue enhancement for governmental functions, including public education;

WHEREAS the lack of centralized collection compromises local agencies’ ability to collect the full amount of their sales tax on internet sales, depriving them of much needed revenue;

WHEREAS the Lafayette Parish School System serves as tax collector, spending over $2,000,000 annually to collect taxes locally; and

WHEREAS those resources could be better invested in educating our students, compensating our teachers or improving our facilities;

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lafayette Parish School Board expresses support for House Bill 57, a Constitutional Amendment authorizing the Legislature to provide by law for the centralized collection of all sales and use taxes levied by any taxing authority in the state.

FINALLY, BE IT RESOLVED, that a copy of this Resolution be provided to each member of the Legislative Delegation of Lafayette Parish, and the Governor of the State of Louisiana.
