KANE City Attorney NIALL FRITZ Director of Community Development R. DENNIS DELZEIT City Engineer JOHN V. GILLESPIE Chief of Police The City has unofficially received its requested $20 million allocation for issuance of single family revenue bonds. The City Council authorized the application for the allocation in August 1984. Five (5) developers will be participating in the program - Griffin, Regal, Urban West, U.S. Condominium and Warmington. This Program will permit qualified home buyers, primarily first time buyers, to obtain below market interest rate financing. The City has no financial obligation or liability concerning the bond program. We are merely acting as a conduit. Staff reviewed proposals from three (3) investment banking firms:j Miller & Schraeder Municipals Inc., Paine Webber, and Stone & Youngberg'to provide the requisite services. All of the firms have an excellent reputation. Staff is recom- mending the retention of Stone and Youngberg as the Managing Under- writer. They have worked with a number of other public agencies in the County and have demonstrated exceptional performance. They offered the best opportunity to maximize funds available for admin- istrative costs which would be retained by the City and unqualified maximum underwriter discounts for either private placement or multiple buyers which should result in lower costs to the homebuyer. The actual agreement is being completed and should be available prior to the February 19, 1985 Council meeting. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve agreement with Stone & Youngberg to serve as Managing Underwriter and authorize Mayor to execute on behalf of City.
