WATER AND WASTEWATER DEBT ANALYSIS
WORK ORDER NO. 01-2007
SCOPE OF SERVICES
This Work Order is made part of the Master Agreement, dated July 14,2005, between the City of
Sanford (the "City") and Public Resources Management Group, Inc. (PRMG). The consulting
services provided under this Work Order will include, among other items, services associated
with analyzing the utility debt refunding and debt issuance strategy in coordination with the
City's Financial Advisor, First Southwest Company.
Based on the scope of services as summarized below and the direct hourly labor billing rates as
shown on Attachment A to the Master Agreement, the not-to-exceed budget of this Work Order
is $5,000.
The scope of services to be provided by Public Resources Management Group, Inc. (PRMG)
related to this Work Order is summarized below by task:
1. Review of Existing Utility Debt Structure and Future Debt Needs - PRMG will review the
City's existing utility (water and wastewater) debt structure and future borrowing needs
based on recent projections contained in the City's 2006 Water and Wastewater Rate
Study. PRMG will coordinate with City staff and engineering consultants to determine
any changes in capital funding needs or other financial issues that would affect the
structure of future debt.
2. Formulate Debt Refunding and New Debt Issuance Strategy - PRMG will assist the
City's Financial Advisor in preparing a strategy for refunding certain portions of the
City's outstanding utility debt and issuance of additional debt. The City's existing utility
debt includes revenue bonds and State Revolving Fund loans (SRF Loans) issued through
the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. Additional project funds may
involve either additional revenue bonds or SRF Loans. The objective of the analysis is to
provide the lowest overall debt costs, with minimal affect on future utility rate
adjustments, while maintaining the City's ability to issue additional utility debt in the
future
2. Meetings with City staff and Presentation to City Commission - It is anticipated that this
scope of services will require several meetings with City staff, the City's Financial
Advisor, and consulting engineers in order to gain a consensus of the optimum debt
strategy. PRMG will assist the City's Financial Advisor in preparing presentation
materials and attending a public hearing with the City Commission to review the debt
plan and make appropriate modifications. The following table summarizes the meetings
anticipated under the scope of services for this Work Order.
