Councilmember then introduced the following resolution and

RESOLUTION NO. 2025-75
RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING ISSUANCE, AWARDING
SALE, PRESCRIBING THE FORM AND DETAILS AND
PROVIDING FOR THE PAYMENT OF $8,785,000 GENERAL
OBLIGATION BONDS, SERIES 2025B
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council (the "Council") of the City of Edina, Minnesota
(the "City"), as follows:
Section 1. Authorization and Sale.
1.01. Authorization of Bonds. Pursuant to Resolution No. 2025-65, adopted on August
6, 2025, this Council determined it to be in the best interest of the City to issue and sell its
General Obligation Bonds, Series 2025B (the "Bonds"), in an estimated principal amount of
$11,235,000, pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 475 and Sections 469.1812-1815 (the
"Abatement Act") and 475.58, subd. 3(b) (the "Street Reconstruction Act"), upon the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth.
The portion of the Bonds ($6,680,000) that is being issued pursuant to the Abatement Act
(the "Abatement Bonds") will be used to finance certain improvements to the Edina Aquatics
Center (the "Abatement Projects"). This Council, by resolution duly adopted on July 15, 2025,
authorized the issuance of the Abatement Bonds for the purpose of financing the Abatement
Projects. To finance the Abatement Projects, this Council, by resolution adopted July 15, 2025
after a public hearing held June 17, 2025, granted a fifteen (15) year abatement of property taxes
to be imposed by the City on certain parcels in the City (the "Tax Abatement"), pursuant to the
Abatement Act. The revenues received by the City from such Tax Abatement are herein referred
to as the "Tax Abatement Revenue."
The portion of the Bonds ($2,105,000) that is being issued pursuant to the Street
Reconstruction Act (the "Street Reconstruction Plan Bonds") will be used to finance the cost of
certain street reconstruction projects described in the City's Five-Year Street Reconstruction
Plan (the "Street Reconstruction Plan") adopted by this Council July 15, 2025, following a public
hearing held June 17, 2025. A petition requesting a vote on the question of issuing the Street
Reconstruction Plan Bonds, signed by voters equal to five percent of the votes cast in the last
municipal general election, was not filed with the City within 30 days of the public hearing.
Accordingly, the issuance of the Street Reconstruction Plan Bonds is authorized without an
election.
Maturity schedules for each portion of the Bonds are attached hereto as Exhibit A.
-3-
4907-5613-0125\3
1.02. Sale of Bonds. The City has retained Ehlers & Associates, Inc. ("Ehlers"), as
independent municipal advisors in connection with the sale of the Bonds. Pursuant to Minnesota
Statutes, Section 475.60, subdivision 2, paragraph (9), the requirements as to public sale do not
apply to the issuance of the Bonds. Pursuant to the Terms of Proposal and the Preliminary
Official Statement prepared on behalf of the City by Ehlers, sealed or electronic proposals for the
purchase of the Bonds were received at or before the time specified for receipt of proposals. The
proposals have been opened and publicly read and considered and the purchase price, interest
rates and net interest cost under the terms of each proposal have been determined. The most
favorable proposal received is that of Hilltop Securities in Dallas, Texas (the "Purchaser"), to
purchase the Bonds in the principal amount of $8,785,000 at a purchase price of $9,356,613.73,
on the further terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.
1.03. Award.
The proposal is hereby accepted, and the Mayor and the City Manager are hereby
authorized and directed to execute a contract on the part of the City for the sale of the Bonds
with the Purchaser in accordance with the Terms of Proposal. The good faith deposit of the
Purchaser shall be retained and deposited by the City until the Bonds have been delivered and
shall be deducted from the purchase price paid at settlement.
1.04. Performance of Requirements. All acts, conditions and things which are required
by the Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota, including Minnesota Statutes, Chapter
475 and Sections 469.1814 and 475.58, subd. 3(b), as amended, to exist, to happen and to be
performed precedent to and in the valid issuance of the Bonds having been done, now existing,
having happened and having been performed, it is now necessary for the Council to establish the
form and terms of the Bonds, to provide security therefor and to issue the Bonds forthwith.
Section 2. Bond Terms; Registration; Execution and Delivery.
2.01. Maturities; Interest Rates; Denominations; Payment. The Bonds shall be

The Bonds shall be issuable only in fully registered form. The interest thereon and, upon
surrender of each Bond, the principal amount thereof, shall be payable by check or draft issued
by the Registrar for the Bonds appointed herein.
2.02. Interest Payment Dates. Each Bond shall be dated by the Registrar as of the date of
its authentication. The interest on the Bonds shall be payable on February 1 and August 1 in
each year, commencing August 1, 2026, to the owner of record thereof as of the close of business
on the fifteenth day of the immediately preceding month, whether or not such day is a business
day.
2.03. Registration. The City shall appoint, and shall maintain, a bond registrar, transfer
agent and paying agent (the "Registrar"). The effect of registration and the rights and duties of
the City and the Registrar with respect thereto shall be as follows:
(a) Register. The Registrar shall keep at its principal corporate trust office a bond
register in which the Registrar shall provide for the registration of ownership of Bonds
and the registration of transfers and exchanges of Bonds entitled to be registered,
transferred or exchanged.
(b) Transfer of Bonds. Upon surrender for transfer of any Bond duly endorsed by
the registered owner thereof or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in form
satisfactory to the Registrar, duly executed by the registered owner thereof or by an
attorney duly authorized by the registered owner in writing, the Registrar shall
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or
more new Bonds of a like aggregate principal amount and maturity, as requested by the
transferor. The Registrar may, however, close the books for registration of any transfer
after the fifteenth day of the month preceding each interest payment date and until such
interest payment date.
(c) Exchange of Bonds. Whenever any Bonds are surrendered by the registered
owner for exchange the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver one or more new Bonds
of a like aggregate principal amount and maturity, as requested by the registered owner or
the owner's attorney in writing.
-5-
4907-5613-0125\3
(d) Cancellation. All Bonds surrendered upon any transfer or exchange shall be
promptly canceled by the Registrar and thereafter disposed of as directed by the City.
(e) Improper or Unauthorized Transfer. When any Bond is presented to the
Registrar for transfer, the Registrar may refuse to transfer the same until it is satisfied that
the endorsement on such Bond or separate instrument of transfer is valid and genuine and
that the requested transfer is legally authorized. The Registrar shall incur no liability for
the refusal, in good faith, to make transfers which it, in its judgment, deems improper or
unauthorized.
(f) Persons Deemed Owners. The City and the Registrar may treat the person in
whose name any Bond is at any time registered in the bond register as the absolute owner
of such Bond, whether such Bond shall be overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving
payment of, or on account of, the principal of and interest on such Bond and for all other
purposes, and all such payments so made to any such registered owner or upon the
owner's order shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such
Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
(g) Taxes, Fees and Charges. For every transfer or exchange of Bonds (except
for an exchange upon a partial redemption of a Bond), the Registrar may impose a charge
upon the owner thereof sufficient to reimburse the Registrar for any tax, fee or other
governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such transfer or exchange.
(h) Mutilated, Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Bonds. In case any Bond shall become
mutilated or be destroyed, stolen or lost, the Registrar shall deliver a new Bond of like
amount, number, maturity date and tenor in exchange and substitution for and upon
cancellation of any such mutilated Bond or in lieu of and in substitution for any such
Bond destroyed, stolen or lost, upon the payment of the reasonable expenses and charges
of the Registrar in connection therewith; and, in the case of a Bond destroyed, stolen or
lost, upon filing with the Registrar of evidence satisfactory to it that such Bond was
destroyed, stolen or lost, and of the ownership thereof, and upon furnishing to the
Registrar of an appropriate bond or indemnity in form, substance and amount satisfactory
to it, in which both the City and the Registrar shall be named as obligees. All Bonds so
surrendered to the Registrar shall be canceled by it and evidence of such cancellation
shall be given to the City. If the mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost Bond has already
matured or been called for redemption in accordance with its terms it shall not be
necessary to issue a new Bond prior to payment.
(i) Authenticating Agent. The Registrar is hereby designated authenticating
agent for the Bonds, within the meaning of Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.55,
Subdivision 1, as amended.
(j) Valid Obligations. All Bonds issued upon any transfer or exchange of Bonds
shall be the valid obligations of the City, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the
-6-
4907-5613-0125\3
same benefits under this Resolution as the Bonds surrendered upon such transfer or
exchange.
2.04. Appointment of Registrar and Paying Agent. The City hereby appoints U.S. Bank
Trust Company, National Association in St. Paul, Minnesota, as the initial Registrar. The Mayor
and City Manager are authorized to execute and deliver, on behalf of the City, a contract with
U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as Registrar. Upon merger or consolidation of
the Registrar with another corporation, if the resulting corporation is a bank or trust company
authorized by law to conduct such business, such corporation shall be authorized to act as
successor Registrar. The City agrees to pay the reasonable and customary charges of the
Registrar for the services performed. The City reserves the right to remove any Registrar upon
thirty (30) days' notice and upon the appointment of a successor Registrar, in which event the
predecessor Registrar shall deliver all cash and Bonds in its possession to the successor
Registrar.
2.05. Redemption. Bonds maturing in 2035 and later years are each subject to
redemption and prepayment at the option of the City, in whole or in part, and if in part in such
order of maturity dates as the City may select and by lot as selected by the Registrar (or, if
applicable, by the bond depository in accordance with its customary procedures) in multiples of
$5,000 as to Bonds maturing on the same date, on February 1, 2034, and on any date thereafter,
at a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date of redemption.
Prior to the date specified for the redemption of any Bond prior to its stated maturity date, the
City will cause notice of the call for redemption to be published if and as required by law, and, at
least thirty days prior to the designated redemption date, will cause notice of the call to be mailed
by first class mail (or, if applicable, provided in accordance with the operational arrangements of
the bond depository), to the registered owner of any Bond to be redeemed at the owner's address
as it appears on the Bond Register maintained by the Registrar, but no defect in or failure to give
such mailed notice of redemption shall affect the validity of proceedings for the redemption of
any Bond not affected by such defect or failure. Official notice of redemption having been given
as aforesaid, the Bonds or portions of Bonds so to be redeemed shall, on the redemption date,
become due and payable at the redemption price therein specified, and from and after such date
(unless the City shall default in the payment of the redemption price) such Bonds or portions of
such Bonds shall cease to bear interest. Upon partial redemption of any Bond, a new Bond or
Bonds will be delivered to the registered owner without charge, representing the remaining
principal amount outstanding.
Bonds maturing on February 1, 2041 (the "Term Bonds") shall be subject to mandatory
redemption prior to maturity pursuant to the sinking fund requirements of this Section 2.05 at a
redemption price equal to the stated principal amount thereof plus interest accrued thereon to the
redemption date, without premium. The Registrar shall select for redemption, by lot or other
manner deemed fair, on February 1 in each of the following years the following stated principal
amounts of such Bonds:

Notice of redemption shall be given as provided in the preceding paragraph.
2.06. Execution, Authentication and Delivery. The Bonds shall be prepared under the
direction of the City Finance Director and shall be executed on behalf of the City by the
signatures of the Mayor and the City Manager, provided that all signatures may be printed,
engraved or lithographed facsimiles of the originals. In case any officer whose signature or a
facsimile of whose signature shall appear on the Bonds shall cease to be such officer before the
delivery of any Bond, such signature or facsimile shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all
purposes, the same as if he or she had remained in office until delivery. Notwithstanding such
execution, no Bond shall be valid or obligatory for any purpose or entitled to any security or
benefit under this Resolution unless and until a certificate of authentication on such Bond has
been duly executed by the manual signature of an authorized representative of the Registrar.
Certificates of authentication on different Bonds need not be signed by the same representative.
The executed certificate of authentication on each Bond shall be conclusive evidence that it has
been authenticated and delivered under this Resolution. When the Bonds have been so prepared,
executed and authenticated, the City Finance Director shall deliver them to the Purchaser upon
payment of the purchase price in accordance with the contract of sale heretofore made and
executed, and the Purchaser shall not be obligated to see to the application of the purchase price.
2.07. Form of Bonds. The Bonds shall be typed or printed in substantially the form
attached hereto as Exhibit B.
2.08. Use of Securities Depository; Book-Entry Only System. The provisions of this
Section shall take precedence over the provisions of Sections 2.01 through 2.07 to the extent they
are inconsistent therewith.
(a) The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") has agreed to act as securities depository
for the Bonds, and to provide a Book-Entry Only System for registering the ownership interest of
the financial institutions for which it holds the Bonds (the "DTC Participants"), and for
distributing to such DTC Participants such amount of the principal and interest payments on the
Bonds as they are entitled to receive, for redistribution to the beneficial owners of the Bonds as
reflected in their records (the "Beneficial Owners").
(b) Initially, and so long as DTC or another qualified entity continues to act as securities
depository, the Bonds shall be issued in typewritten form, one for each maturity in a principal
amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of each maturity, shall be registered in the name
-8-
4907-5613-0125\3
of the securities depository or its nominee, shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 2.08,
and no Beneficial Owner shall have the right to receive a certificate of ownership or printed
Bond. While DTC is acting as the securities depository, the Bonds shall be registered in the
name of the DTC's nominee, CEDE & CO; provided that upon delivery by DTC to the City and
the Registrar of written notice to the effect that DTC has determined to substitute a new nominee
in place of CEDE & CO., the words "CEDE & CO." in this Resolution shall refer to such new
nominee of DTC.
With respect to Bonds registered in the name of a securities depository or its nominee, the
City and the Registrar shall have no responsibility or obligation to any DTC Participant or
Beneficial Owner with respect to the following: (i) the accuracy of the records of any securities
depository or its nominee with respect to any ownership interest in the Bonds, (ii) the delivery to
any DTC Participant or other person or any other person, other than DTC, of any notice with
respect to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption, or (iii) the payment to any DTC
Participant or any other person, other than DTC, of any amount with respect to the principal of or
premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds. The Registrar shall pay all principal of and premium,
if any, and interest on the Bonds only to or upon the order of DTC, and all such payments shall
be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the City's obligations with respect to the
principal and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. So long as the
Book-Entry Only System is in effect, no person other than DTC shall receive an authenticated
Bond.
(c) Upon receipt by the City and the Registrar of written notice from the securities
depository to the effect that it is unable or unwilling to discharge its responsibilities under the
Book-Entry Only System, the Registrar shall issue, transfer and exchange Bonds of the initial
series as requested by the securities depository in appropriate amounts, and whenever the
securities depository requests the City and the Registrar to do so, the City and the Registrar shall
cooperate with the securities depository in taking appropriate action after reasonable notice (i) to
arrange for a substitute depository willing and able, upon reasonable and customary terms, to
maintain custody of the Bonds, or (ii) to make available Bonds registered in whatever name or
names the Beneficial Owner registering ownership transferring or exchanging such Bonds shall
designate, in accordance with clause (f) or clause (g) below, whichever is applicable.
(d) In the event the City determines that it is in the best interests of the Beneficial Owner
that they be able to obtain printed Bonds, the City may so notify the securities depository and the
Registrar, whereupon the securities depository shall notify the Beneficial Owners of the
availability through the securities depository of such printed Bonds. In such event, the City shall
cause to be prepared and the Registrar shall issue, transfer and exchange the printed Bonds fully
executed and authenticated, as requested by the securities depository in appropriate amounts and,
whenever the securities depository requests, the City and the Registrar shall cooperate with the
securities depository in taking appropriate action after reasonable notice to make available
printed Bonds registered on the Bond Register in whatever name or names the Beneficial Owners
entitled to receive Bonds shall designate, in accordance with clause (f) or clause (g) below,
whichever is applicable.
-9-
4907-5613-0125\3
(e) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Resolution to the contrary, so long as
any Bond is registered in the name of a securities depository or its nominee, all payments of
principal and interest on the Bond and all notices with respect to the Bond shall be made and
given, respectively, to the securities depository.
(f) In the event that the Book-Entry Only System established pursuant to this Section is
discontinued, except as provided in clause (g), the Bonds shall be issued through the securities
depository to the Beneficial Owners.
(g) In the event of termination of the Book-Entry Only System, the City shall have the
right to terminate, and shall take all steps necessary to terminate, all arrangements with the
securities depository described herein, and thereafter shall issue, register ownership of, transfer
and exchange all Bonds as provided in Section 2.03. Upon receipt by the securities depository of
notice from the City, the securities depository shall take all actions necessary to assist the City
and the Registrar in terminating all arrangements for the issuance of documents evidencing
ownership interests in the Bonds through the securities depository. Nothing herein shall affect
the securities depository's rights under clause (e) above.
Section 3. Use of Proceeds.
3.01. General Obligation Bonds, Series 2025B Abatement Projects Construction Fund.
There is hereby established in the official books and records of the City, a separate General
Obligation Bonds, Series 2025B Abatement Projects Construction Fund (the "Series 2025B
Abatement Projects Construction Fund"). The City hereby appropriates to the Series 2025B
Abatement Projects Construction Fund proceeds of the Abatement Bonds in the amount of
$7,115,679.78, representing the estimated costs of the Abatement Projects ($7,049,161.12) and
costs of issuance of the Abatement Bonds ($66,518.66). The Series 2025B Abatement Projects
Construction Fund shall be used solely to defray expenses of the Abatement Projects and costs of
issuance of the Abatement Bonds, including but not limited to the transfer to the Abatement
Bond Fund created in Section 4.01 hereof, of amounts sufficient for the payment of interest due
upon the Abatement Bonds prior to the completion of the Abatement Projects and the payment of
the expenses incurred by the City in connection with the issuance of the Abatement Bonds.
Upon completion and payment of all costs of the Abatement Projects, any balance of the
proceeds of Abatement Bonds remaining in the Series 2025B Abatement Projects Construction
Fund shall be credited and paid to the Abatement Bond Fund, unless and except as such proceeds
may be transferred to some other fund or account as to which the City has received from bond
counsel an opinion that such other transfer is permitted by applicable laws and does not impair
the exemption of interest on the Abatement Bonds from federal income taxes.
3.02. General Obligation Bonds, Series 2025B Street Reconstruction Projects
Construction Fund. There is hereby established in the official books and records of the City, a
separate General Obligation Bonds, Series 2025B Street Reconstruction Projects Construction
Fund (the "Series 2025B Street Reconstruction Projects Construction Fund"). The City hereby
appropriates to the Series 2025B Street Reconstruction Projects Construction Fund proceeds of
the Street Reconstruction Bonds in the amount of $2,240,933.95, representing the estimated costs
-10-
4907-5613-0125\3
of the Street Reconstruction Projects ($2,219,972.61) and costs of issuance of the Street
Reconstruction Bonds ($20,961.34). The Series 2025B Street Reconstruction Projects
Construction Fund shall be used solely to defray expenses of the Street Reconstruction Projects
and costs of issuance of the Street Reconstruction Bonds, including but not limited to the transfer
to the Street Reconstruction Bond Fund created in Section 4.02 hereof, of amounts sufficient for
the payment of interest due upon the Street Reconstruction Bonds prior to the completion of the
Street Reconstruction Projects and the payment of the expenses incurred by the City in
connection with the issuance of the Street Reconstruction Bonds. Upon completion and payment
of all costs of the Street Reconstruction Projects, any balance of the proceeds of Street
Reconstruction Bonds remaining in the Series 2025B Street Reconstruction Projects
Construction Fund shall be credited and paid to the Street Reconstruction Bond Fund, unless and
except as such proceeds may be transferred to some other fund or account as to which the City
has received from bond counsel an opinion that such other transfer is permitted by applicable
laws and does not impair the exemption of interest on the Street Reconstruction Bonds from
federal income taxes.
Section 4. Bond Funds.
4.01. Abatement Bond Fund. The Abatement Bonds shall be payable from a separate
General Obligation Bonds, Series 2025B Abatement Bond Fund (the "Abatement Bond Fund"),
which the City agrees to maintain until the Abatement Bonds have been paid in full. If the
balance in the Abatement Bond Fund is ever insufficient to pay all principal and interest then due
on bonds payable therefrom, the City Finance Director shall nevertheless provide sufficient
money from any other funds of the City which are available for that purpose, and such other
funds shall be reimbursed from subsequent receipts of revenues appropriated to the Abatement
Bond Fund and, if necessary, from the proceeds of the taxes levied for the Abatement Bond
Fund. The City Finance Director shall deposit in the Abatement Bond Fund (a) Tax Abatement
Revenues; (b) any ad valorem taxes allocable to the Abatement Bonds collected in accordance
with the provisions of Section 5.02 hereof; and (c) all other moneys as shall be appropriated by
the Council to the Abatement Bond Fund from time to time.
4.02. Street Reconstruction Bond Fund. The Street Reconstruction Bonds shall be
payable from a separate General Obligation Bonds, Series 2025B Street Reconstruction Bond
Fund (the "Street Reconstruction Bond Fund"), which the City agrees to maintain until the Street
Reconstruction Bonds have been paid in full. If the balance in the Street Reconstruction Bond
Fund is ever insufficient to pay all principal and interest then due on bonds payable therefrom,
the City Finance Director shall nevertheless provide sufficient money from any other funds of
the City which are available for that purpose, and such other funds shall be reimbursed from
subsequent receipts of revenues appropriated to the Street Reconstruction Bond Fund and, if
necessary, from the proceeds of the taxes levied for the Street Reconstruction Bond Fund. The
City Finance Director shall deposit in the Street Reconstruction Bond Fund (a) ad valorem taxes
allocable to the Street Reconstruction Bonds collected in accordance with the provisions of
Section 5.02 hereof; and (b) all other moneys as shall be appropriated by the Council to the
Street Reconstruction Bond Fund from time to time.

Section 5. Full Faith and Credit Pledged. For the prompt and full payment of the
principal of and interest on the Bonds as such payments respectively become due, the full faith,
credit and unlimited taxing powers of the City shall be and are hereby irrevocably pledged. In
order to produce aggregate amounts which, together with the collections of other amounts as set
forth in Section 4, will produce amounts not less than 5% in excess of the amounts needed to
meet when due the principal and interest payments on the Bonds, ad valorem taxes are hereby
levied on all taxable property in the City, the taxes to be levied and collected as shown in
Appendix I attached hereto.
The taxes shall be irrepealable as long as any of the Bonds are outstanding and unpaid, provided
that the City reserves the right and power to reduce the tax levies from other legally available
funds, in accordance with the provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61.
Section 6. Reserved.
Section 7. Defeasance. When all of the Bonds have been discharged as provided in this
section, all pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this Resolution to the holders of the
Bonds shall cease. The City may discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds which are
due on any date by depositing with the Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the
payment thereof in full; or, if any Bond should not be paid when due, it may nevertheless be
discharged by depositing with the Registrar a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full with
interest accrued from the due date to the date of such deposit. The City may also discharge its
obligations with respect to any prepayable Bonds called for redemption on any date when they
are prepayable according to their terms, by depositing with the Registrar on or before that date an
amount equal to the principal, interest and redemption premium, if any, which are then due,
provided that notice of such redemption has been duly given as provided herein. The City may
also at any time discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds, subject to the provisions of
law now or hereafter authorizing and regulating such action, by depositing irrevocably in escrow,
with a bank or trust company qualified by law as an escrow agent for this purpose, cash or
securities which are authorized by law to be so deposited, bearing interest payable at such time
and at such rates and maturing or callable at the holder's option on such dates as shall be
required to pay all principal, interest and redemption premiums to become due thereon to
maturity or said redemption date.
Section 8. County Auditor Registration, Certification of Proceedings, Investment of
Money, Arbitrage and Official Statement.
8.01. County Auditor Registration. The City Clerk is hereby authorized and directed to
file a certified copy of this Resolution with the County Auditor of Hennepin County, together
with such other information as the County Auditor shall require, and to obtain from said County
Auditor a certificate that the Bonds and tax levy have been entered on such officer's bond
register as required by law.
8.02. Certification of Proceedings. The officers of the City and the County Auditor of
Hennepin County are hereby authorized and directed to prepare and furnish to the Purchaser and
to Dorsey & Whitney LLP, Bond Counsel to the City, certified copies of all proceedings and
-12-
4907-5613-0125\3
records of the City, and such other affidavits, certificates and information as may be required to
show the facts relating to the legality and marketability of the Bonds as the same appear from the
books and records under their custody and control or as otherwise known to them, and all such
certified copies, certificates and affidavits, including any heretofore furnished, shall be deemed
representations of the City as to the facts recited therein.
8.03. Covenant. The City covenants and agrees with the registered owners of the Bonds,
that it will not take, or permit to be taken by any of its officers, employees or agents, any action
which would cause the interest payable on the Bonds to become subject to taxation under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and Regulations promulgated
thereunder (the "Regulations") as are enacted or promulgated and in effect on the date of
issuance of the Bonds, and covenants to take any and all actions within its powers to ensure that
the interest on the Bonds will not become includable in gross income of the recipient under the
Code and the Regulations. The facilities financed by the Bonds shall at all times during the term
of the Bonds be owned and maintained by the City and the City shall not enter into any lease, use
agreement, management agreement, capacity agreement or other agreement or contract with any
nongovernmental person relating to the use of the facilities financed by the Bonds, or security for
the payment of the Bonds which might cause the Bonds to be considered "private activity bonds"
or "private loan bonds" pursuant to Section 141 of the Code.
8.04. Arbitrage Certification. The Mayor and the City Manager, being the officers of the
City charged with the responsibility for issuing the Bonds pursuant to this Resolution, are
authorized and directed to execute and deliver to the Purchaser a certification in accordance with
the provisions of Section 148 of the Code, and the Regulations, stating the facts, estimates and
circumstances in existence on the date of issue and delivery of the Bonds which make it
reasonable to expect that the proceeds of the Bonds will not be used in a manner that would
cause the Bonds to be arbitrage bonds within the meaning of the Code and Regulations.
8.05. Arbitrage Rebate. The City shall take such actions as are required to comply with
the arbitrage rebate requirements of paragraphs (2) and (3) of Section 148(f) of the Code, to the
extent applicable to the Bonds.
8.06. Official Statement. The Preliminary Official Statement relating to the Bonds,
prepared and distributed on behalf of the City by Ehlers and Associates, Inc., is hereby approved.
Ehlers is hereby authorized on behalf of the City to prepare and distribute to the Purchaser a
Final Official Statement listing the offering price, the interest rates, other information relating to
the Bonds required to be included in the Official Statement by Rule 15c2-12 adopted by the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Within seven
business days from the date hereof, the City shall deliver to the Purchaser a reasonable number
of copies of the Final Official Statement. The officers of the City are hereby authorized and
directed to execute such certificates as may be appropriate concerning the accuracy,
completeness and sufficiency of the Final Official Statement.
8.07. Reimbursement. The City certifies that the proceeds of the Bonds will not be used
by the City to reimburse itself for any expenditure with respect to the financed facilities which
-13-
4907-5613-0125\3
the City paid or will have paid more than 60 days prior to the issuance of the Bonds unless, with
respect to such prior expenditures, the City shall have made a declaration of official intent which
complies with the provisions of Section 1.150-2 of the Regulations, provided that a declaration
of official intent shall not be required (i) with respect to certain de minimis expenditures, if any,
with respect to the financed facilities meeting the requirements of Section 1.150-2(f)(1) of the
Regulations, or (ii) with respect to "preliminary expenditures" for the financed facilities as
defined in Section 1.150-2(f)(2) of the Regulations, including engineering or architectural
expenses and similar preparatory expenses, which in the aggregate do not exceed 20% of the
"issue price" of the Bonds.
8.08. Not Qualified Tax-Exempt Obligations. The Bonds are not designated "qualified
tax-exempt obligations" for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code.
Section 9. Continuing Disclosure. (a) Purpose and Beneficiaries. To provide for the public
availability of certain information relating to the Bonds and the security therefor and to permit
the Purchaser and other participating underwriters in the primary offering of the Bonds to
comply with amendments to Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the SEC under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (17 C.F.R. § 240.15c2-12), relating to continuing disclosure (as in effect
and interpreted from time to time, the Rule), which will enhance the marketability of the Bonds,
the City hereby makes the following covenants and agreements for the benefit of the Owners (as
hereinafter defined) from time to time of the Outstanding Bonds. The City is the only obligated
person in respect of the Bonds within the meaning of the Rule for purposes of identifying the
entities in respect of which continuing disclosure must be made. If the City fails to comply with
any provisions of this section, any person aggrieved thereby, including the Owners of any
Outstanding Bonds, may take whatever action at law or in equity may appear necessary or
appropriate to enforce performance and observance of any agreement or covenant contained in
this section, including an action for a writ of mandamus or specific performance. Direct,
indirect, consequential and punitive damages shall not be recoverable for any default hereunder
to the extent permitted by law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no
event shall a default under this section constitute a default under the Bonds or under any other
provision of this resolution. As used in this section, Owner or Bondowner means, in respect of a
Bond, the registered owner or owners thereof appearing in the bond register maintained by the
Registrar or any Beneficial Owner (as hereinafter defined) thereof, if such Beneficial Owner
provides to the Registrar evidence of such beneficial ownership in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Registrar. As used herein, Beneficial Owner means, in respect of a
Bond, any person or entity which (i) has the power, directly or indirectly, to vote or consent with
respect to, or to dispose of ownership of, such Bond (including persons or entities holding Bonds
through nominees, depositories or other intermediaries), or (ii) is treated as the owner of the
Bond for federal income tax purposes.
(b) Information To Be Disclosed. The City will provide, in the manner set forth in subsection
(c) hereof, either directly or indirectly through an agent designated by the City, the following
information at the following times:
-14-
4907-5613-0125\3
(1) on or before twelve months after the end of each fiscal year of the City,
commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, the following
financial information and operating data in respect of the City (the Disclosure
Information):
(A) the audited financial statements of the City for such fiscal year, prepared
in accordance with the governmental accounting standards promulgated by
the Governmental Accounting Standards Board or as otherwise provided
under Minnesota law, as in effect from time to time, or, if and to the extent
such financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with such
generally accepted accounting principles for reasons beyond the
reasonable control of the City, noting the discrepancies therefrom and the
effect thereof, and certified as to accuracy and completeness in all material
respects by the fiscal officer of the City; and
(B) to the extent not included in the financial statements referred to in
paragraph (A) hereof, the information for such fiscal year or for the period
most recently available of the type contained in the Official Statement
under headings: "VALUATIONS — Current Property Valuations;" "DEBT
— Direct Debt;" "TAX LEVIES, COLLECTIONS AND RATES — Tax
Levies and Collections;" "GENERAL INFORMATION — U.S. Census
Data — Population Trend;" and "—Employment/Unemployment Data;"
which information may be unaudited.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, if the audited financial statements are not available by
the date specified, the City shall provide on or before such date unaudited financial statements in
the format required for the audited financial statements as part of the Disclosure Information and,
within 10 days after the receipt thereof, the City shall provide the audited financial statements.
Any or all of the Disclosure Information may be incorporated by reference, if it is updated as
required hereby, from other documents, including official statements, which have been filed with
the SEC or have been made available to the public on the Internet Web site of the Municipal
Securities Rulemaking Board (MSRB). If the document incorporated by reference is a final
official statement, it must be available from the MSRB. The City shall clearly identify in the
Disclosure Information each document so incorporated by reference. If any part of the
Disclosure Information can no longer be generated because the operations of the City have
materially changed or been discontinued, such Disclosure Information need no longer be
provided if the City includes in the Disclosure Information a statement to such effect; provided,
however, if such operations have been replaced by other City operations in respect of which data
is not included in the Disclosure Information and the City determines that certain specified data
regarding such replacement operations would be a Material Fact (as defined in paragraph (2)
hereof), then, from and after such determination, the Disclosure Information shall include such
additional specified data regarding the replacement operations. If the Disclosure Information is
changed or this section is amended as permitted by this paragraph (b)(1) or subsection (d), then
the City shall include in the next Disclosure Information to be delivered hereunder, to the extent
-15-
4907-5613-0125\3
necessary, an explanation of the reasons for the amendment and the effect of any change in the
type of financial information or operating data provided.
(2) In a timely manner not in excess of ten business days after the occurrence of the
event, notice of the occurrence of any of the following events (each a Material
Fact):
(A) Principal and interest payment delinquencies;
(B) Non-payment related defaults, if material;
(C) Unscheduled draws on debt service reserves reflecting financial
difficulties;
(D) Unscheduled draws on credit enhancements reflecting financial
difficulties;
(E) Substitution of credit or liquidity providers, or their failure to perform;
(F) Adverse tax opinions, the issuance by the Internal Revenue Service of
proposed or final determinations of taxability, Notices of Proposed Issue
(IRS Form 5701-TEB) or other material notices or determinations with
respect to the tax status of the security, or other material events affecting
the tax status of the security;
(G) Modifications to rights of security holders, if material;
(H) Bond calls, if material, and tender offers;
(I) Defeasances;
(J) Release, substitution, or sale of property securing repayment of the
securities, if material;
(K) Rating changes;
(L) Bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar event of the obligated
person;
(M) The consummation of a merger, consolidation, or acquisition involving an
obligated person or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the
obligated person, other than in the ordinary course of business, the entry
into a definitive agreement to undertake such an action or the termination
of a definitive agreement relating to any such actions, other than pursuant
to its terms, if material;
(N) Appointment of a successor or additional trustee or the change of name of
a trustee, if material;
(0) Incurrence of a financial obligation of the obligated person, if material, or
agreement to covenants, events of default, remedies, priority rights, or
other similar terms of a financial obligation of the obligated person, any of
which affect security holders, if material; and
(P) Default, event of acceleration, termination event, modification of terms, or
other similar events under the terms of a financial obligation of the
obligated person, any of which reflect financial difficulties.
For purposes of the events identified in paragraphs (0) and (P) above, the term "financial
obligation" means (i) a debt obligation; (ii) a derivative instrument entered into in connection
-16-
4907-5613-0125\3
with, or pledged as security or a source of payment for, an existing or planned debt obligation; or
(iii) a guarantee of (i) or (ii). The term "financial obligation" shall not include municipal
securities as to which a final official statement has been provided to the MSRB consistent with
the Rule.
As used herein, for those events that must be reported if material, an event is "material" if it is an
event as to which a substantial likelihood exists that a reasonably prudent investor would attach
importance thereto in deciding to buy, hold or sell a Bond or, if not disclosed, would
significantly alter the total information otherwise available to an investor from the Official
Statement, information disclosed hereunder or information generally available to the public.
Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, an event is also "material" if it is an event that would be
deemed material for purposes of the purchase, holding or sale of a Bond within the meaning of
applicable federal securities laws, as interpreted at the time of discovery of the occurrence of the
event.
For the purposes of the event identified in (L) hereinabove, the event is considered to occur when
any of the following occur: the appointment of a receiver, fiscal agent or similar officer for an
obligated person in a proceeding under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or in any other proceeding
under state or federal law in which a court or governmental authority has assumed jurisdiction
over substantially all of the assets or business of the obligated person, or if such jurisdiction has
been assumed by leaving the existing governing body and officials or officers in possession but
subject to the supervision and orders of a court or governmental authority, or the entry of an
order confirming a plan of reorganization, arrangement or liquidation by a court or governmental
authority having supervision or jurisdiction over substantially all of the assets or business of the
obligated person.
(3)
In a timely manner, notice of the occurrence of any of the following events or
conditions:
(A) the failure of the City to provide the Disclosure Information required
under paragraph (b)(1) at the time specified thereunder;
(B) the amendment or supplementing of this section pursuant to subsection
(d), together with a copy of such amendment or supplement and any
explanation provided by the City under subsection (d)(2);
(C) the termination of the obligations of the City under this section pursuant to
subsection (d);
(D) any change in the accounting principles pursuant to which the financial
statements constituting a portion of the Disclosure Information are

(2) All documents provided to the MSRB pursuant to this subsection (c) shall be
accompanied by identifying information as prescribed by the MSRB from time to
time.
(d) Term; Amendments; Interpretation.
(1) The covenants of the City in this section shall remain in effect so long as any
Bonds are Outstanding. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, however, the
obligations of the City under this section shall terminate and be without further
effect as of any date on which the City delivers to the Registrar an opinion of
Bond Counsel to the effect that, because of legislative action or final judicial or
administrative actions or proceedings, the failure of the City to comply with the
requirements of this section will not cause participating underwriters in the
primary offering of the Bonds to be in violation of the Rule or other applicable
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any statutes
or laws successory thereto or amendatory thereof.
(2) This section (and the form and requirements of the Disclosure Information) may
be amended or supplemented by the City from time to time, without notice to
(except as provided in paragraph (c)(3) hereof) or the consent of the Owners of
any Bonds, by a resolution of this Council filed in the office of the recording
officer of the City accompanied by an opinion of Bond Counsel, who may rely on
certificates of the City and others and the opinion may be subject to customary
qualifications, to the effect that: (i) such amendment or supplement (a) is made in
connection with a change in circumstances that arises from a change in law or
regulation or a change in the identity, nature or status of the City or the type of
operations conducted by the City, or (b) is required by, or better complies with,
the provisions of paragraph (b)(5) of the Rule; (ii) this section as so amended or
supplemented would have complied with the requirements of paragraph (b)(5) of
the Rule at the time of the primary offering of the Bonds, giving effect to any
change in circumstances applicable under clause (i)(a) and assuming that the Rule
as in effect and interpreted at the time of the amendment or supplement was in
effect at the time of the primary offering; and (iii) such amendment or supplement
does not materially impair the interests of the Bondowners under the Rule.
If the Disclosure Information is so amended, the City agrees to provide,
contemporaneously with the effectiveness of such amendment, an explanation of
the reasons for the amendment and the effect, if any, of the change in the type of
financial information or operating data being provided hereunder.
