(d) An order authorizing $5,000,000 Community College Bonds (Civic Center) (the <br />"Civic Center Bonds") of the County was adopted by the Board for the County on July 21, 2014, <br />which order was approved by the vote of a majority of the qualified voters of the County who <br />voted thereon at a referendum duly called and held on November 4, 2014. <br />(e) None of said bonds have heretofore been issued and there is outstanding a $5,000,000 <br />General Obligation Community College Bond Anticipation Note, Series 2016, dated May 19, <br />2016, maturing June 1, 2017, and bearing interest at the rate of 1.04% per annum (the "2016 <br />Note"), which 2016 Note was issued in anticipation of the receipt of the proceeds of the sale of <br />$1,035,000 of the Health Sciences Bonds; $1,545,000 of the Veterinary Technology Bonds; (iii) <br />$1,795,000 of the Emergency Services Bonds and $625,000 of the Civic Center Bonds. <br />(f) It is necessary to issue $9,000,000 of the Health Science Bonds, $5,000,000 of the <br />Veterinary Technology Bonds, $4,000,000 of the Emergency Services Bonds and $5,000,000 of <br />the Civic Center Bonds at this time for the purpose of providing funds, together with other <br />available funds, to prepay the outstanding 2016 Note and pay the costs of the various projects <br />authorized to be financed by said bonds. <br />(g) The maximum period of usefulness of the public improvements to be provided with <br />the proceeds of said bonds is estimated as a period of forty (40) years from May 19, 2016, the <br />date of the 2016 Note, and that such period expires on May 19, 2056. <br />(h) It is in the best interest of the County to consolidate said bonds for the purposes of <br />sale into a single issue of bonds. <br />Section 2. Pursuant to said order, the County shall issue bonds in the aggregate principal <br />amount of $23,000,000 designated "General Obligation Community College Bonds, Series 2017" <br />(the 'Bonds"), to be dated the date of delivery thereof. The Bonds shall be stated to mature <br />annually (subject to adjustment as set forth below), April 1, $1,150,000 2018 to 2037, inclusive, <br />and shall bear interest at a rate or rates to be determined by the Local Government Commission <br />of North Carolina at the time the Bonds are sold, which interest to the respective maturities <br />thereof shall be payable on each April 1 and October 1, beginning October 1, 2017, until payment <br />of such principal sum. <br />Notwithstanding the foregoing, the principal due on April 1 of each year as provided <br />above may be made to come due on account of the maturity of Bonds on such date or pursuant to <br />mandatory sinking fund redemption, all as provided in the Notice of Sale relating to the Bonds. <br />Bonds to be retired on multiple dates on account of mandatory sinking fund redemptions and a <br />final maturity are herein referred to as "Term Bonds." The Finance Director of the County may <br />take all actions necessary, including modification of the form of Bonds set forth in Section 3 of <br />this resolution and the redemption provisions set forth in Section 4 of this resolution, in order to <br />conform any Bonds to the requirements for Term Bonds. <br />Each Bond shall bear interest from the interest payment date next preceding the date on <br />which it is authenticated, unless it is (a) authenticated upon an interest payment date, in which <br />event it shall bear interest from such interest payment date or (b) authenticated prior to the first <br />2 <br />
