and Whereas, the city has uutiatives that cannot he financed under current city or state bonding or borrowing authority or laws; and Whereas, the city has the authority to borrow between funds and has established an Internal I,oan Fund to control and monitor the transactions between funds; and Whereas, the city has assigned its Financial Services Director and Treasurer, as advisory counsel, to review and advise the city on transactions for the use of loans between funds so as to maintain security of the cash with minimum risk; and Whereas, the Parks and Recreation Division wants to raise sufficient financing to provide a short-term loan to the Highland 18 goif course in order to finance the renovation of that course, and the Office of Financial Services has prepared a"Record of Interfund Loan" agreement to accomplish that financing; and Whereas, an independent analysis has confirmed ihat the city can provide the financing at a lower cost than the proposed transaction; and Whereas, there will be secure assets with sufficient revenue streams dedicated to the Internal Loan Fund to support repayment of principal, with interest, to the funds advancing the use of cash; and Whereas, the temporary financing for the Highland 18 golf course renovation provided by the Internal Loan Fund will ultimately be replaced by permanent financing provided by the city's issuance of revenue bonds payable solely from revenues of the Parks and Recreation system; and Whereas, the Highland 18 revenue bonds will be issued in 2006 when the bonds that financed the Rice- Arlington Sports Dome may be paid or refunded and the "parity bond" test can be avoided; and Whereas, the Parks and Recreation Division agrees to use excess revenues of the Parks and Recreation system to repay all costs of paying or refunding the Rice-Arlington Sports Dome bonds; and Whereas, issuing such revenue bonds in 2006 will be too late to meet tas-exempt bond rules that limit reimbursements of earlier expenditures, and to timely meet the reimbursement requirement the city may issue a note in 2005 which it purchases as an investment of a city fund, and may use the proceeds of this note to reimburse and pay any unpaid balance due the Internal Loan Fund, and later in 2006 refund the note with the permanent bonds;
