The recitals set forth above are incorporated herein. 2. The City proposes to undertake projects (the "Projects") consisting of the development of recreational trails, construction of new community park facilities, improvement of existing parks and athletic courts, construction of an outdoor ice sheet at Hasse Arena, and improvements to arts and environmental learning centers, and the City reasonably expects to reimburse the expenditures made for certain costs of the Projects from the proceeds of bonds in an estimated maximum principal amount of $38,000,000. All reimbursed expenditures will be capital expenditures, costs of issuance of the bonds, or other expenditures eligible for reimbursement under Section 1.150-2(d)(3) of the Reimbursement Regulations. 3. This Declaration has been made no later than 60 days after payment of any original expenditure to be subject to a reimbursement allocation with respect to the proceeds of bonds, except for the following expenditures: a) costs of issuance of bonds; b) costs in an amount not in excess of $100,000 or five percent of the proceeds of an issue; or c) "preliminary expenditures" up to an amount not in excess of 20 percent of the aggregate issue price of the issue or issues that are reasonably expected by the City to finance the project for which the preliminary expenditures were incurred. The term "preliminary expenditures" includes architectural, engineering, surveying, bond issuance, and similar costs that are incurred prior to commencement of acquisition, construction or rehabilitation of a project, other than land acquisition, site preparation, and similar costs incident to commencement of construction. 4. This Declaration is an expression of the reasonable expectations of the City based on the facts and circumstances known to the City as the date hereof. The anticipated original expenditures for the Projects and the principal amount of the bonds described in paragraph 2 are consistent with the City's budgetary and financial circumstances. No sources other than proceeds of bonds to be issued by the City are, or are reasonably expected to be, reserved, allocated on a long-term basis, or otherwise set aside pursuant to the City's budget or financial policies to pay such Project expenditures. 5. This Declaration is intended to constitute a declaration of the official intent for the purposes of the Reimbursement Regulations. ADOPTED by the Lakeville City Council this 6th day of December 2021.
