Crystal City Council Meeting Agenda Oct. 5, 2016 7.5 The Council will consider a resolution declaring the official intent of the City of Crystal to reimburse certain Phase 16 Street Project expenditures from the proceeds of bonds to be issued by the city. Bonds will be sold in the summer of 2017 to finance special assessments for the Phase 16 street reconstruction project. IRS regulations require that the city expend all of the bond proceeds for project costs within 6 months of the date of sale of the bonds. If a resolution is passed stating that some of the bond proceeds will be used to reimburse the city for projects costs incurred prior to the date of the bond sale, then those costs can count toward the requirement to expend the bond proceeds within 6 months of the date of the sale of the bonds. Recommend approval. 7.6 The Council will consider a resolution approving the agreement with Shingle Creek Watershed Management Commission for the Becker Park Storm Water Project. At the September 20, 2016 Council meeting the Council approved a contract with Wenck for the design of the Becker Park Storm Water Infiltration project and authorized work to start on Phase 1.
