June 15, 1978 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Chula Vista City Hall Chula Vista, California Subject: Community Hospital of Chula Vista Dear Mayor Hyde and Members of the Council: At the meeting of the City Council on acY~ 14, 1978, you adopted a resolution approving the issuance of up to $10, of Hospital Facility First Mortgage Refunding Bonds and up to $6, 500, 000 of Special Obligation Refunding Bonds by Community Hospital of Chula Vista (the "Corporation") at interest rates not ex- ceeding 7.5 percent per annum. The bond marketing operation commenced in late March, but the furor caused by the campaign over Proposition 13 disrupted the market for virtually all tax exempt securities issued in California, and as a result, has in part resulted in a delay in the completion of the marketing. As a consequence of this. delay, plus a general increase in interest rates for tax exempt bonds nationally, it has become apparent that the financing plan should be re-structured, and that the interest rate limitation should be revised to permit a maximum average net annual interest cost of 7.6 percent per annum . The re- structuring of the financing plan will provide for a maximum indebtedness of $10,000,000 of First Mortgage Refunding Bonds instead of the previously approved $10, 250, 000 and will eliminate the issuance of any Special Obligation Refunding Bonds . Because these changes are substantive in nature, the Corporation, upon advice of bond counsel, requests the City Council to approve an amended resolution in- corporating the above revisions and re-stating all previously approved provisions. It should be noted, however, that the total bond issue is not expected to exceed $9, 800, 000, and the average annual net interest cost is presently estimated at 7.4891 percent per annum. We still expect to realize the substantial benefits related in our letter to the City Council dated March 8, 1978, but on advice of bond counsel the proposed amended resolution is being presented for your approval in order to clarify existing conditions . As mentioned previously, the City of Chula Vista will have no responsibility, real or implied, for payment of the proposed bonds of the Community Hospital of Chula Vista.
