NO X In order to receive tax increment revenues in the Bayfront Project it will be necessary to maintain an indebtedness at least equal to the increment due. Any interruption in the project's liability will require a twelve to eighteen month wait to resume the flow of tax increments. The proposal to defease the outstanding Bayfront bonds will effec= tively nullify our $6 million liability (bonds plus interest coupons). Defeasance is, however, necessary at this time due to the obligations of the Town Centre Project. The action would otherwise be scheduled to coincide with the merger of both projects. Releasing of the liability will only be temporary, since upon the passage of AB 405 (Me.rger Bill) anew sale of bonds is proposed to finance activities of both projects. Thus, for the next few months it is important to maintain a Bayfront Project indebted- ness. After consulting with our legal and financial advisors it is recommended that the City loan the Bayfront Project $350,000. The loan would be at the current earning rate for a period ending with the fiscal year but recallable for any municipal purpose. The resolution provided herewith will authorize the loan; similarily, a resolution at tonight's meeting will accept the loan on behalf of the Agency.
