Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
The Davis Joint Unified School District has requested through its Resolution No. 42-18 (Att. C. District Resolution) that the Board of Supervisors authorize the issuance of TRANs pursuant to Government Code section 53850 et seq. in an amount not to exceed $18 million, at an interest rate not to exceed 4%, in the name of the District.
Government Code Section 53853 requires action by the Board of Supervisors even though the obligation is entirely the District’s. The Board Resolution authorizes the issuance of the TRANs, directs the County Treasurer-Tax Collector (presently the Chief Financial Officer), who has been appointed paying agent for the notes by the District, to carry out the necessary duties, and authorizes the Chair of the Board, the Clerk of the Board and the County Treasurer-Tax Collector to execute necessary documents to effect the TRANs transaction. Authorization of the issuance presents minimal risk to the County. The District has pledged all available District funds to the repayment of the notes. The District has agreed to make up any deficiency in the repayment fund from any other money of the District lawfully available to repay the notes. The District has also agreed to indemnify and reimburse the County for any liability, costs or expenses incurred in connection with the TRANs. |

Explanation (Expenditure and/or Revenue) |
Further explanation as needed: |
This issuance of TRAN by the District has no impact on County general fund: the TRANs are a general obligation of the District, to be repaid from District’s unrestricted revenues and any other available District funds. The District has also agreed to reimburse the County for costs incurred to process the TRANs. The TRANs help the District to maintain positive cash balances in the county treasury pool. |
