Council Minutes of 3/21/95 r ,~ done during a time of low interest rates and during an economic time when we could get a deal on the contracts. Virtually every contract came in well below the engineering estimates. The money that was borrowed was not spent foolislily--it was spent to address the infrastructure problems. During all this time, the city has kept its good bond rating. We are now in a position where we will have to start slowing down. However, we are still in a position where we are able to convert our outstandmg notes to bond and still get a very low interest rate--the lowest of almost anything the city has had on the books in the last 30 to 40 years. And the city has been fixed. LEGLSLATION Ordinance No. 95-20 introduced by Mr. McKay was given its third reading.
