THEREFORE,
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENT, WASHINGTON, DOES

following words shall have the following meanings:
"Annual Debt Service" for the applicable issue or series of

issue of bonds shall be treated as being redeemed or purchased,
and retired.

Upon surrender thereof to the Bond Registrar, the Bonds may
be exchanged for Bonds in any authorized denomination of an
equal aggregate principal amount and of the same interest rate
and maturity. Bonds may be transferred only if endorsed in the
manner provided thereon and surrendered to the Bond Registrar.
Such exchange or transfer shall be without cost to the owner or
transferee. The Bond Registrar shall not be required to
exchange or transfer any Bond during the fifteen days preceding
any principal payment or redemption date.
The Bonds shall be issued only in registered form as to
both principal and interest and recorded in the books and
records maintained by the Bond Registrar (the "Bond Register").
The Bond Register shall contain the name and mailing address of
the owner of each Bond and the principal amounts and numbers of
Bonds held by each such owner.
Both principal of and interest on the Bonds shall be
payable in lawful money of the United States of America.
Interest on the Bonds shall be paid by check or draft mailed

City Finance Director, shall be paid on the interest payment
date by wire transfer to the account identified by the request-
ing registered owner whose name, address and wire transfer
account number appear on the Bond Register fifteen days preced-
ing the interest payment date. Principal of the Bonds shall be
payable upon presentation and surrender of the Bonds by the
registered owners at either office of the Bond Registrar at the
option of such owners. The Bonds shall be payable solely out of
the Bond Fund and shall not be general obligations of the City.
Section 4. Redemption of Bonds. Bonds maturing in the
years 1988 through 1996, inclusive, shall be issued without the
right or option of the City to redeem the same prior to their
stated maturity dates. The City reserves the right and option
to redeem the Bonds maturing on and after November 1, 1997, as a
whole, or in part in inverse order of maturity (and by lot
within a maturity in such manner as the Bond Registrar shall
determine), on November 1, 1996, and on any interest payment
date thereafter, at par plus accrued interest to the date of
redemption.
The Bonds maturing in the year 2006 are Term Bonds and, if
not previously called for optional redemption or purchased in
the open market, shall be called for redemption at par plus
accrued interest to the date of such redemption by lot (in such
manner determined by the Bond Registrar), and the City shall set
aside into the Principal and Interest Account, in the following
years and following amounts:

365,000
390,000
420,000
Term Bonds previously redeemed by optional call or open market
purchase shall be credited to the Bonds to be called on the next
mandatory redemption date.
Portions of the principal amount of any Bond, in install-
ments of $5,000 or any integral multiple of $5,000, may be
redeemed. If less than all of the principal amount of any Bond
is redeemed, upon surrender of such Bond at the principal office
of the Bond Registrar, there shall be issued to the registered
owner, without charge therefor, a new Bond or Bonds, at the
- 12 -
option of the registered owner, of like maturity and interest
rate in any of the denominations authorized by this ordinance.
Notice of any such intended redemption shall be given not
less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for
redemption by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the regis-
tered owner of any Bond to be redeemed at the address appearing
on the Bond Register. The requirements of this section shall be
deemed to be complied with when notice is mailed as herein
provided, whether or not it is actually received by the owner of
any Bond. Interest on the Bonds so called for redemption shall
cease to accrue on the date fixed for redemption unless such
Bond or Bonds so called are not redeemed upon presentation made
pursuant to such call. In addition, such redemption notice
shall be mailed within the same period, postage prepaid, to
Moody's Investors Service, Inc., and Standard & Poor's
Corporation at their offices in New York, New York, or their
successors, and to Shearson Lehman Brothers Inc., Foster &
Marshall Division, at its principal office in Seattle,
Washington, or its successor, but such mailings shall not be a
condition precedent to the redemption of such Bonds.
The City further reserves the right and option to purchase
any or all of the Bonds in the open market at any time at a
price not in excess of the call price applicable for such Bonds
on the then applicable or next call date, plus accrued interest
to the date of such purchase. Bonds so purchased shall be
retired and cancelled.
Section 5. Sewerage Svstem Revenue Bond Fund, 1986. There
is created in the office of the City Finance Director a special
fund of the City to be known as the Sewerage System Revenue Bond
Fund, 1986 (herein defined as the "Bond Fund"), which fund is
divided into three accounts, namely, a Principal and Interest
Account, an Assessment Account and a Reserve Account. So long
- 13 -
as any Bonds or Future Parity Bonds are outstanding against the
Bond Fund, the City obligates and binds itself to set aside and
pay into the Bond Fund all ULID Assessments upon their collec-
tion and, on or before the 20th day of each month, out of the
Net Revenue of the Sewerage System, certain fixed amounts
without regard to any fixed proportion, namely:
(a) Into the Principal and Interest Account, begin-
ning with the month of November, 1986, at least an amount
which, together with ULID Assessments and other money on
deposit therein, will equal 1/6 of the amount of interest
to become due and payable on the Bonds outstanding on the
next interest payment date and beginning with the month of
November, 1987, at least an amount which, together with
ULID Assessments and other money on deposit therein, will
equal 1/12 of the amount of principal to become due and
payable on the Bonds outstanding on the next principal
payment date, including any Bonds subject to mandatory
redemption on that date and, on or before each interest or
principal and interest payment date of Future Parity Bonds,
at least an amount which, together with ULID Assessments
and other money on deposit therein, will be sufficient to
pay the interest or principal and interest to become due
and payable on Future Parity Bonds outstanding on that next
payment date, including any Future Parity Bonds subject to
mandatory redemption on that date;
(b) Into the Assessment Account, all ULID Assessments
deposited into the Bond Fund in excess of the amount of
money deposited in the Principal and Interest Account
required to pay principal of and interest on Bonds and
Future Parity Bonds, and to be used for the purposes set
forth below in this Section 5; and
(c) Into the Reserve Account, from the proceeds of
the Bonds, an amount necessary to fund the Reserve Require-
ment for the Bonds and, for Future Parity Bonds, an amount
necessary to fund the Reserve Requirement within the time
permitted by this ordinance. For the Bonds, the Reserve
Requirement shall be fully funded by proceeds from the
issuance and sale of the Bonds.
The City covenants and agrees that it will at all times
maintain in the Reserve Account an amount equal to the Reserve
Requirement, except for withdrawals therefrom as authorized
herein, at all times so long as any of such bonds are outstand-
ing. When the total amount in the Bond Fund shall equal the
total amount of principal and interest for all outstanding bonds
payable out of the Bond Fund to the last maturity thereof, no
further payment need be made into the Bond Fund.
- 14 -
In the event that there shall be a deficiency in the
Principal and Interest Account to meet maturing installments of
either principal or interest, as the case may be, to pay
required redemptions of the Bonds or Future Parity Bonds, or to
meet sinking fund requirements, such deficiency shall be made up
from the Reserve Account by the withdrawal of cash therefrom for
that purpose to the extent such deficiency is not made up from
the Assessment Account. Any deficiency created in the Reserve
Account by reason of any such withdrawals shall then be made up
from the Net Revenue of the Sewerage System first available
after making necessary provisions for the required payments into
the Principal and Interest Account. The Reserve Requirement in
the Reserve Account shall otherwise be held intact and may be
applied against the last outstanding bonds payable out of the
Bond Fund.
The City may provide for the purchase, redemption or
defeasance of bonds payable from the Bond Fund by the use of
money on deposit in any account in the Bond Fund as long as the
money remaining in those accounts is sufficient to satisfy the
required deposits in those accounts for the remaining bonds
outstanding payable from the Bond Fund.
Money in the Assessment Account shall be used with other
available money to pay and redeem Bonds and Future Parity Bonds
called for redemption prior to their maturity, or, if insuffi-
cient money is deposited in the Principal and Interest Account,
then for deposit into that account to meet the required payments
therefrom.
All money in the Bond Fund may be kept in cash or invested
in Permitted Investments maturing not later than the date when
the funds are required for the payment of principal of or
interest on the outstanding bonds payable from the Bond Fund
(for investments in the Principal and Interest Account) or
- 15 -
having a guaranteed redemption price prior to maturity or
maturing not later than twelve years from the date of the
investment and, in no event, maturing later than the last
maturity of any remaining outstanding bonds payable from the
Bond Fund, whichever is the lesser (for investments in the
Reserve Account). Income from investments in the Principal and
Interest Account shall be deposited in that account. Income
from investments in the Assessment Account shall be deposited
Assessment Account. Income from investments in the Reserve
Account shall be deposited in that account until the amount
therein is equal to the Reserve Requirements of all bonds
payable from the Bond Fund, and thereafter shall be deposited in
the Principal and Interest Account.
Notwithstanding the provisions for the deposit of earnings,
any earnings which are subject to a federal tax or rebate
requirement may be withdrawn from the Bond Fund for deposit into
a separate fund or account for that purpose.
In no event shall any money in the Bond Fund or any other
money reasonably expected to be used to pay principal of or
interest on the Bonds be invested at a yield which would cause
the Bonds to be arbitrage bonds within the meaning of Section
148 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and
applicable regulations thereunder.
In addition, the City reserves the right to substitute for
all or for a portion of the Reserve Account a Reserve Account
Instrument which, when combined with any money or investments in
the Reserve Account, equals an amount not less than the Reserve
Requirement for all outstanding Bonds and Future Parity Bonds.
The City covenants that any such substitution will be subject to
the prior approval by any provider of bond insurance for any
then outstanding Future Parity Bonds and written certificates
from Moody's Investors Service, Inc., and Standard & Poor's
- 16 -
Corporation that such substitution will not result in any change
in the outstanding ratings of the Bonds and any Future Parity
Bonds and will not impair the security thereof.
The City may create sinking fund accounts or other accounts
in the Bond Fund for the payment or securing the payment of
bonds payable from the Bond Fund as long as the maintenance of
such accounts does not conflict with the rights of the owners of
bonds payable from the Bond Fund.
If the City fails to set aside and pay into the Bond Fund
the amounts set forth above, the owner of any of the outstanding
bonds payable out of the Bond Fund may bring action against the
City and compel the setting aside and payment.
Section 6. Pledge of Bonds. The Gross Revenue of the
Sewerage System and ULID Assessments are pledged irrevocably to
the payments required by this ordinance, and the Bonds and
Future Parity Bonds, if any, shall constitute a charge or lien
upon such Gross Revenue and ULID Assessments prior and superior
to any other charges whatsoever, excluding Operating and
Maintenance Expenses.
Section 7. Sufficiency of Gross Revenue. In the judgment
of the City Council, the Gross Revenue of the Sewerage System at
the rates to be charged for surface drainage and sewerage
service will be more than sufficient to meet all Operating and
Maintenance Expenses and to permit the setting aside into the
Bond Fund out of the Gross Revenue of the Sewerage System of
amounts sufficient to pay the interest on the Bonds as such
interest becomes payable and to pay and redeem all of the Bonds
at maturity or earlier mandatory redemption dates. The City
Council and corporate authorities of the City further declare
that in creating the Bond Fund and in fixing the amounts to be
paid into the same as aforesaid they have exercised due regard
for the Operating and Maintenance Expenses, and the City has not
- 17 -
bound and obligated itself to set aside and pay into the Bond
Fund a greater amount or proportion of the Gross Revenue of the
Sewerage System than in the judgment of the City Council will be
available over and above such Operating and Maintenance Expenses
and that no portion of the Gross Revenue of the Sewerage System
previously has been pledged for any indebtedness.
Section 8. Form of Bonds. The Bonds shall be printed or
lithographed on good bond paper in a form consistent with the
provisions of this ordinance and State law, shall be signed by
the Mayor and City Clerk, both of whose signatures shall be in
facsimile, and a facsimile reproduction of the seal of the City
shall be printed thereon.
Only such Bonds as shall bear thereon a Certificate of
Authentication in the following form, manually executed by the
Bond Registrar, shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or
entitled to the benefits of this ordinance:
CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICATION
This bond is one of the fully registered City of
Kent, Washington, Sewerage System Revenue Bonds,
1986, described in the Bond Ordinance.
WASHINGTON STATE FISCAL AGENCY
Bond Registrar
M
Authorized Officer
Such Certificate of Authentication shall be conclusive evidence
that the Bonds so authenticated have been duly executed, authen-
ticated and delivered hereunder and are entitled to the benefits
of this ordinance.
In case either or both of the officers who shall have
executed the Bonds shall cease to be such officer or officers of
the City before the Bonds so signed shall have been authenti-
cated or delivered by the Bond Registrar or issued by the City,
such Bonds nevertheless may be authenticated, delivered and
issued and upon such authentication, delivery and issue, shall
- 18 -
be as binding upon the City as though those whose facsimile
signatures appear on the Bonds had continued to be such officers
of the City. Any Bond also may be signed on behalf of the City
by such persons as at the actual date of execution of such Bond
shall be proper officers of the City authorized to execute Bonds
although on the original date of such Bond such persons were not
such officers of the City.
Section 9. Registration. The Bond Registrar shall keep,
or cause to be kept, at its principal corporate trust office,
sufficient books for the registration and transfer of the Bonds
which shall at all times be open to inspection by the City. The
Bond Registrar is authorized, on behalf of the City, to authen-
ticate and deliver Bonds transferred or exchanged in accordance
with the provisions of the Bonds and this ordinance, to serve as
the City's paying agent for the Bonds and to carry out all of
the Bond Registrar's powers and duties under this ordinance and
City Ordinance No. 2418 establishing a system of registration
for the City's bonds and obligations.
The Bond Registrar shall be responsible for its representa-
tions contained in the Bond Registrar's Certificate of Authen-
tication on the Bonds. The Bond Registrar may become the owner
of Bonds with the same rights it would have if it were not the
Bond Registrar and, to the extent permitted by law, may act as
depositary for and permit any of its officers or directors to
act as members of, or in any other capacity with respect to, any
committee formed to protect the rights of Bond owners.
Section 10.
Negotiability. The Bonds shall be negotiable
instruments to the extent provided by RCW 62A.8-102 and
62A.8-105.
Section 11. Covenants. The City covenants and agrees with
the owner of each Bond at any time outstanding, as follows:
- 19 -
11.1 ULID Assessments. All ULID Assessments shall be
paid into the Bond Fund and may be used to pay the principal of
and interest on the Bonds and Future Parity Bonds without those
Assessments being particularly allocated to the payment of the
principal of and interest on any particular issue of bonds.
Nothing in this ordinance or this section shall be construed to
prohibit the City from issuing sewerage revenue bonds having a
subordinate lien to the Bonds and pledging as security for their
payment assessments levied in any ULIDs which may have been
specifically created to pay part of the cost of improvements to
the Sewerage System for which those subordinate lien bonds were
specifically issued.
11.2 Rates and Charges. It will establish, maintain
and collect each year such rates and charges for drainage and
sewerage service (and for garbage and refuse collection and
disposal service should any system for such service ever be
combined with the Sewerage System) and shall adjust such rates
and charges from time to time so that there will be made avail-
able for the payment of the principal of and interest on the
Bonds and any Future Parity Bonds Net Revenue of the Sewerage
System, together with the collection of ULID Assessments, in an
amount equal to the Coverage Requirement.
11.3 Good Repair. It will at all times maintain and
keep the Sewerage System and all additions thereto and better-
ments, replacements and extensions thereof in good repair,
working order and condition and also will at all times operate
the Sewerage System and the business in connection therewith in
an efficient manner and at a reasonable cost.
11.4 Limitation on Sale of Property. It will not
sell, lease, mortgage, or in any manner encumber or dispose of
all of the property of the Sewerage System unless provision is
made for payment into the Bond Fund of an amount sufficient to
- 20 -
pay the principal of and interest on all Bonds and Future Parity
Bonds at that time outstanding, and it will not sell, lease,
mortgage, or in any manner encumber or dispose of any part of
the property of the Sewerage System that is used, useful and
material to the operation thereof, unless provision is made for
replacement thereof or for payment into the Bond Fund of the
total amount of revenue of the Sewerage System received, which
shall not be less than an amount which shall bear the same ratio
to the amount of outstanding Bonds and Future Parity Bonds as
the Gross Revenue of the Sewerage System available for debt
service for those outstanding bonds for the twelve months
preceding such sale, lease, mortgage, encumbrance or disposal
from the portion of the Sewerage System sold, leased, mortgaged,
encumbered or disposed of bears to the Gross Revenue of the
Sewerage System available for debt service for such bonds from
the entire Sewerage System for the same period. Any money so
paid into the Bond Fund shall be used to retire all or part of
such outstanding bonds not later than the earliest par call date.
11.5 Accounts and Records. It will, while any of the
Bonds remain outstanding, keep proper and separate accounts and
records in which complete and separate entries shall be made of
all transactions relating to its Sewerage System and it will
furnish to the owner or owners thereof at the written request of
such owner or owners, complete operating and income statements
of the Sewerage System in reasonable detail covering any
calendar year not more than ninety days after the close of such
calendar year. It will grant any owner or owners of at least
twenty-five percent of the outstanding Bonds the right at all
reasonable times to inspect the Sewerage System and all records,
accounts and data of the City relating thereto. Upon the
request of any owner of any of the Bonds, it will furnish to
such owner a copy of the most recently completed audit of the
- 21 -
City's accounts by the State Auditor of Washington, or such
other audit as is authorized by law in lieu thereof.
11.6 No Free Service; Enforcement of Accounts and
ULID Assessments. It will not furnish any service of the
Sewerage System (or any garbage and refuse collection and
disposal service should any system for such service ever be
combined with the Sewerage System) to any customer whatsoever
free of charge, and it will promptly take legal action to
enforce the collection of all delinquent accounts. In addition,
if on the date specified by law and in ordinances of the City in
any year two installments of any ULID Assessments have been
delinquent for more than one year, the City shall proceed with
the foreclosure of the delinquent assessments or delinquent
installments thereof in the manner required by law and
ordinances of the City.
11.7 Self -Insurance and Insurance. It either will at
all times self -insure in such manner and to such extent as the
City shall determine to be necessary and appropriate or, to the
extent insurance coverage is available at reasonable cost with
responsible insurers, will carry fire and such other forms of
insurance on such of the buildings, equipment, facilities and
properties of the Sewerage System as under good practice.are
ordinarily carried on such buildings, equipment, facilities and
properties by utilities engaged in the operation of drainage and
sewerage systems to the full insurable value thereof, and also
will carry adequate public liability insurance (and war risk
insurance if available at reasonable rates) at all times. The
premiums on such insurance policies are declared to be a normal
part of Operating and Maintenance Expenses.
11.8 Payment of Obligations. It will pay all
Operating and Maintenance Expenses and the debt service require-
ments for all outstanding Bonds and Future Parity Bonds and
- 22 -
otherwise will meet the obligations of the City as set forth in
this ordinance.
11.9 Limitation on Substantial Reduction of Gross
Revenue. It will not change any rate or charge for Sewerage
System service as now established by the existing rate ordinance
or ordinances of the City that will substantially reduce the
annual Gross Revenue of the Sewerage System below that which
would have been obtained before such change unless the City
shall have on file a certificate from a licensed professional
engineer experienced in the design, construction and operation
of municipal utilities, stating the rates and charges as so
changed will provide Gross Revenue of the Sewerage System,
together with ULID Assessments, sufficient to comply with all
the covenants and requirements of this ordinance, including the
Coverage Requirement.
11.10 Non -Arbitrage and Arbitrage Rebate Covenants.
The City covenants that it will neither make nor permit any use
of proceeds of the Bonds or other funds of the City at any time
during the term of the Bonds which will cause the Bonds to be
arbitrage bonds within the meaning of Section 148 of the United
States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and applicable regulations
promulgated thereunder. Further, the City covenants that, if
all proceeds of the Bonds have not been spent within six months
from the date of issuance of the Bonds, the City will calculate,
or cause to be calculated, and rebate to the United States all
earnings from the investment of Bond proceeds that are in excess
of the amount that would have been earned had the yield on such
investments been equal to the yield on the Bonds, plus all
income derived from such excess earnings, to the extent and in
the manner required by Section 148 of such Code and such
applicable regulations.
- 23 -
It has not been notified of any listing or proposed listing
by the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that it is a bond
issuer whose arbitrage certifications may not be relied upon.
Section 12. Future Parity Bonds. The City covenants and
agrees with the owner of each Bond at any time outstanding that
it will not issue any Future Parity Bonds except upon compliance
with the following conditions:
(a) At the time of the issuance of such Future
Parity Bonds, there shall be no deficiency in the
Bond Fund.
(b) The ordinance providing for the issuance of
such Future Parity Bonds shall provide that all
assessments and interest thereon, except for prepaid
assessments used to pay costs of improvements, which
may be levied in any ULID hereafter created for the
purpose of paying, in whole or in part, the principal
of and interest on such Future Parity Bonds, shall be
paid directly into the Bond Fund.
(c) The ordinance authorizing the issuance of
such Future Parity Bonds shall provide for the
payment of sinking fund requirements into the Bond
Fund for any Term Bonds to be issued and for regular
payments to be made for the payment of the principal
of such Term Bonds on or before their maturity, or,
as an alternative, the mandatory redemption of such
Term Bonds prior to their maturity date from money in
the Principal and Interest Account and Assessment
Account.
(d) The ordinance authorizing the issuance of
any Future Parity Bonds shall provide for the payment
of the principal of and interest thereon out of the
Bond Fund.
(e) The ordinance providing for the issuance of
such Future Parity Bonds shall provide for the
payment of an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement
for those Future Parity Bonds into the Reserve
Account in the Bond Fund from the Future Parity Bond
proceeds and, to the extent such Reserve Requirement
is not funded from Future Parity Bond proceeds, then
from money in the Reserve Account in excess of the
Reserve Requirement of all bonds then payable from
the Bond Fund and from the Net Revenue of the
Sewerage System in sixty approximately equal monthly
payments. The requirement of this subsection is
subject to the City's right to fund all or a portion
of the Reserve Requirement with a Reserve Account
Instrument. In the event such Future Parity Bonds
are issued for the purpose of refunding outstanding
Bonds and/or Future Parity Bonds, the amount of such
reserve allocated to such bonds being so refunded
shall be retained or used as a reserve for such
refunding Future Parity Bonds or used to retire
- 24 -
outstanding Bonds or outstanding Future Parity Bonds
pursuant to the refunding plan, which reserve amount
shall be replaced in the same manner and within the
same time as required for additional Future Parity
Bonds, or such reserve may remain in the Reserve
Account to be used as the reserve for remaining bonds
payable from the Bond Fund.
(f) At the time of the issuance of such Future
Parity Bonds, the City shall have on file a certifi-
cate from an independent, licensed professional
engineer experienced in the design, construction and
operation of municipal utilities, or a certified
public accountant, stating that in his or her
professional opinion the Net Revenue of the Sewerage
System for any twelve consecutive calendar months out
of the immediately preceding twenty-four calendar
months, together with the projected collections of
ULID Assessments, shall be equal to the Coverage
Requirement for each year thereafter. However, if
Future Parity Bonds proposed to be so issued are for
the sole purpose of refunding outstanding bonds
payable from the Bond Fund, such certification of
coverage shall not be required if the Annual Debt
Service in each year for the refunding bonds is not
increased over the amount required for the bonds to
be refunded thereby and the maturities of those
refunding bonds are not extended beyond the maturi-
ties of the bonds to be refunded thereby.
The engineer's or accountant's certificate, in
estimating the Net Revenue of the Sewerage System
available for debt service, shall use the historical
Net Revenue of the Sewerage System for any twelve
consecutive months out of the twenty-four months
immediately preceding the month of delivery of the
Future Parity Bonds. Such Net Revenue may be
adjusted to reflect:
(1) Any changes in rates in effect and being
charged or expressly committed by ordinance of the
City Council to be made in the future;
(2) Income derived from customers of the
Sewerage System that have become customers during the
twelve consecutive month period or thereafter
adjusted to reflect one year's net revenue from such
customers;
(3) Revenues from any customers to be connected
to the Sewerage System who have paid the required
connection charges;
(4) The revenue to be deposited in the Revenue
Fund which is derived from any person, firm, corpora-
tion or municipal corporation under any executed
contract for Sewerage System service, which revenue
was not included in the historical Net Revenue of the
Sewerage System; and
(5) The engineer's or accountant's estimate of
the Net Revenue to be derived by the City from
customers with improved property available to connect
- 25 -
to any additions to and improvements and extensions
of the Sewerage System to be paid for out of the
proceeds of the sale of the additional Future Parity
Bonds or other additions to and improvements and
extensions of the Sewerage System then under con-
struction and not fully connected to the facilities
of the Sewerage System when such additions, improve-
ments and extensions are completed.
Actual or reasonably anticipated changes in the
Operating and Maintenance Expenses subsequent to such
twelve-month period shall be added or deducted, as is
applicable.
The engineer's or accountant's certificate
required by this subparagraph (f) in setting forth
the estimate of ULID Assessments for ULID improve-
ments being financed by the proposed Future Parity
Bonds shall be computed in accordance with the
following formula:
(i) The amount of the ULID Assessments
paid within the 30 -day period permitted by law
for the payment of ULID Assessments without
penalty or interest shall be applied in the year
of payment, or, if that 30 -day period has not
elapsed, 15% of each total assessment roll shall
be applied for the year in which it is antici-
pated such prepayment period will end as the
estimated amount of the ULID Assessments that
will be paid within such 30 -day period.
(ii) 10% of the balance of each such
assessment roll shall then be deducted for
estimated nonpayment of ULID Assessments.
(iii) The balance remaining after the
deductions provided in subparagraphs (i) and
(ii) immediately above shall then be divided by
the number of years in which installments of
such ULID Assessments may be paid without
becoming delinquent, and there shall be added to
each year the interest that will be collected on
such installments.
In computing the installments of ULID
Assessments previously levied that will be collected
each year, the following formula shall be used:
(i) All delinquent ULID Assessments or
installments shall be deducted from each
assessment roll.
(ii) The balance remaining after the
deductions provided in subparagraph (i) immedi-
ately above shall then be divided by the number
of years in which installments of such ULID
Assessments may be paid without being delinquent
and there shall be added to each year the
interest that will be collected on such
installments.
- 26 -
No engineer's or accountant's certificate provided
for in this paragraph (f) shall be required in
connection with the issuance of a ULID Assessment
Bond issue if the amount of bonds proposed to be
issued does not exceed the ULID Assessments levied in
support of such ULID Assessment Bond Issue by more
than $5,000 plus any amount of the proceeds of such
bonds deposited in the Reserve Account as capitalized
reserve.
Nothing contained in the provisions for Future Parity Bonds
shall prevent the City from issuing revenue bonds having a
subordinate lien on the Gross Revenue of the Sewerage System or
from pledging the payment of assessments in any ULID (the
assessments in which are not pledged into the Bond Fund) into a
bond redemption fund or account created to pay and secure the
payment of the principal of and interest on such subordinate
lien bonds as long as such assessments are levied to pay part or
all of the cost of improvements being constructed out of the
proceeds of the sale of such subordinate lien bonds.
Section 13. Priority of Payments. All ULID Assessments
shall be paid into the Bond Fund as provided by Section 5. The
Gross Revenue of the Sewerage System, except for earnings in the
Bond Fund and funds other than the Revenue Fund, shall be
credited to the Revenue Fund of the City as it is collected.
Such Fund shall be held separate and apart from other funds and
accounts of the City. Money in the Revenue Fund shall be used
for the following purposes only and shall be applied in the
following order of priority:
(a) To pay the necessary Operating and
Maintenance Expenses;
(b) To make all required payments into the
Principal and Interest Account in the Bond Fund for
all bonds payable out of the Bond Fund, including all
payments required to be made for the payment of any
Term Bonds, including all sinking fund payments
required to be made;
(c) To make all required payments into the
Reserve Account and other accounts hereafter created
in the Bond Fund into which the Net Revenue of the
Sewerage System is to be deposited;
- 27 -
(d) To make all payments required to be made
pursuant to a reimbursement agreement in connection
with a Reserve Account Instrument, except that if
there is not sufficient money to make all payments
under reimbursement agreements the payments will be
made on a pro rata basis;
(e) To make all required payments into the bond
redemption funds or reserve account for any junior
lien Sewerage System revenue bonds or short-term
obligations hereafter issued;
(f) To make necessary additions, betterments
and improvements and repairs to or extensions and
replacements of the Sewerage System, or for any other
proper purposes connected with the operation of the
Sewerage System for which such money may be lawfully
used; and
(g) To retire by redemption or to purchase in
the open market at a price not in excess of the
redemption price on the then or next applicable call
date outstanding Sewerage System revenue bonds or
other revenue obligations of the City then
outstanding.
The City may transfer from any funds or accounts of the
City legally available therefor, except bond redemption funds,
refunding escrow funds or defeasance funds, any money therein to
meet the required payments to be made into the Bond Fund.
Section 14. Advance Refunding of Bonds. The City may
issue advance refunding bonds pursuant to the laws of the State
of Washington and use money available from any other lawful
source to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds, or
such portion thereof included in a refunding or defeasance plan,
as the same become due and payable and to redeem and retire,
release or refund all such then -outstanding Bonds (hereinafter
collectively called the "defeased Bonds") and to pay the costs
of such refunding or defeasance. In the event that money and/or
Government Obligations, or other legal investments sufficient in
amount, together with known earned income from the investments
thereof, to redeem and retire, release or refund the defeased
Bonds in accordance with their terms, are set aside irrevocably
in a special fund for and pledged irrevocably to such redemption
and retirement (hereinafter called the "trust account"), then
- 28 -
all right and interest of the owners of the defeased Bonds in
the covenants of this ordinance and, except as hereinafter
provided, in the Gross Revenue of the Sewerage System, ULID
Assessments, funds and accounts obligated to the payment of such
defeased Bonds, other than the right to receive the funds so set
aside and pledged, thereafter shall cease and become void. Such
owners thereafter shall have the right to receive payment of the
principal of and interest on the defeased Bonds from the trust
account and, in the event the funds in the trust account are not
available for such payment, shall have the residual right to
receive payment of the principal of and interest on the defeased
Bonds from the Gross Revenue of the Sewerage System and ULID
Assessments without any priority of lien or charge against that
revenue, assessments or covenants with respect thereto except to
be paid therefrom.
After the establishing and full funding of such trust
account, the City then may apply any money in any other fund or
account established for the payment or redemption of the
defeased Bonds to any lawful purposes as it shall determine,
subject only to the rights of the owners of any other Bonds or
bonds then outstanding.
In the event that the refunding plan provides that the
defeased Bonds or the refunding bonds to be issued be secured by
cash and/or Government Obligations or other legal investments
pending the prior redemption of the defeased Bonds and if such
refunding plan also provides that certain cash and/or Government
Obligations or other legal investments are pledged irrevocably
for the prior redemption of the defeased Bonds included in that
refunding plan, then only the debt service on the Bonds which
are not defeased Bonds and the refunding bonds, the payment of
which is not so secured by the refunding plan, shall be included
in the computation of the Coverage Requirement for the issuance
- 29 -
of Future Parity Bonds and the annual computation of coverage
for determining compliance with the rate covenants.
Section 15. Application of Proceeds of Bonds. Upon the
issuance and delivery of the Bonds, the City Finance Director
shall apply the proceeds of the Bonds to the following pur-
poses: the accrued interest, if any, received on the sale of
the Bonds shall be deposited in the Principal and Interest
Account in the Bond Fund; the Reserve Requirement for the Bonds
shall be deposited in the Reserve Account in the Bond Fund; and
the remainder of the proceeds of the Bonds shall be deposited in
the Drainage Construction Fund, 1985, created by Ordinance No.
2559 of the City, as amended, and shall be used to pay the costs
of the Improvements and the issuance of the Bonds.
Section 16. Amendatory and Supplemental Ordinances.
16.1 Provisions Exclusive. This ordinance shall not
be modified or amended in any respect subsequent to the initial
issuance of the Bonds, except as provided in and in accordance
with and subject to the provisions of this section.
16.2 Amendments Without Consent of Bondowners. The
City may from time to time, and at any time, without the consent
of or notice to the registered owners of the Bonds, pass supple-
mental or amendatory ordinances as follows:
(a) To cure any formal defect, omission, incon-
sistency or ambiguity in this ordinance in a manner not adverse
to the owner of any Bonds or Future Parity Bonds;
(b) To impose upon the Bond Registrar (with its
consent) for the benefit of the registered owners of the Bonds
any additional rights, remedies, powers, authority, security,
liabilities or duties which may lawfully be granted, conferred
or imposed and which are not contrary to or inconsistent with
this ordinance as theretofore in effect;
- 30 -
(c) To add to the covenants and agreements of,
and limitations and restrictions upon, the City in this
ordinance, other covenants, agreements, limitations and
restrictions to be observed by the City which are not contrary
or inconsistent with this ordinance as theretofore in effect;
(d) To confirm, as further assurance, any pledge
under, and the subjection to any claim, lien or pledge created
or to be created by this ordinance of any other money, securi-
ties or funds;
(e) To authorize different denominations of the
Bonds and to make correlative amendments and modifications to
this ordinance regarding exchangeability of Bonds of different
authorized denominations, redemptions of portions of Bonds of
particular authorized denominations and similar amendments and
modifications of a technical nature; and
(f) To modify, alter, amend or supplement this
ordinance in any other respect which is not materially adverse
to the registered owners of the Bonds and which does not involve
a change described in subsection 16.3 of this section.
(g) To maintain, because of change in federal
law or rulings, the exemption of the interest on the Bonds from
federal income taxation.
Before the City shall enact any such supplemental ordinance
pursuant to this subsection, there shall have been delivered to
the City and the Bond Registrar an opinion of bond counsel to
the City, stating that such supplemental ordinance is authorized
or permitted by this ordinance and will, upon the execution and
delivery thereof, be valid and binding upon the City in accord-
ance with its terms and will not adversely affect the exemption
from federal income taxation of interest on the Bonds.
- 31 -
16.3 Amendments With Consent of Bondowners.
(a) Except for any supplemental ordinance
entered into pursuant to subsection 16.2 of this section,
subject to the terms and provisions contained in this subsection
16.3 and not otherwise, registered owners of not less than 60%
in aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding
shall have the right from time to time to consent to and approve
the passage by the City Council of any supplemental ordinance
deemed necessary or desirable by the City for the purpose of
modifying, altering, amending, supplementing or rescinding, in
any particular, any of the terms or provisions contained in this
ordinance; except, unless approved in writing by the registered
