The purpose of the meeting is to receive input from the public with respect to the issuance of the Bonds. All members of the public are invited to attend and participate. PURPOSE FOR ISSUING BONDS The Issuer intends to issue the Bonds for the purpose of (i) financing a portion of the cost of constructing Main Street improvements including landscaping and pedestrian lighting, together with all related work and improvements (the “Project”); and (ii) paying costs of issuing the Bonds. PARAMETERS OF THE BONDS The Issuer intends to issue the Bonds in the principal amount of not to exceed $500,000, to bear interest at a rate not to exceed 3.0% per annum, to mature in not to more than 35 years from their date or dates, and to be sold at a price not less than 100% of the total principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest to the date of delivery. The Bonds will specify that any installment of principal on the Bonds which shall not be paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of 18% per annum from the due date thereof until paid. EXCISE TAXES PROPOSED TO BE PLEDGED The Issuer proposes to pledge all of the excise tax revenues received by the Issuer pursuant to Sections 59-12-103, et. seq., Utah Code Annotated 1953, as amended for the repayment of the Bonds. A copy of the Resolution is on file in the office of the City Recorder in Gunnison City, Utah, where it may be examined during regular business hours of the City Recorder from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, for a period of at least 30 days from and after date of the last date of publication of this Notice. NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that a period of 30 days from and after the last date of publication of this Notice is provided by law during which (i) any person in interest shall have the right to contest the legality of the Resolution or the Bonds, or any provision made for the security and payment of the Bonds, and that after such time, no one shall have any cause of action to contest the regularity, formality or legality thereof for any cause whatsoever, and (ii) registered voters in Gunnison City, Utah, may sign a written petition requesting an election to authorize the issuance of the Bonds. If written petitions which have been signed by at least 20% of the registered voters of Gunnison City, Utah, are filed with the Issuer during said 30-day period, the Issuer shall be required to hold an election to obtain voter authorization prior to the issuance of the Bonds.
