Approval of this plan n will allow staff to move forward with a QSCB financing in advance of the program’s December 31, 2009 mandatory action date deadline.
Funding Costs associated with the approval of this tem will be managed through Development Fees, Measure K Funds, and State Building Program moneys. The General Fund will be required to back up the debt obligation of this transaction.
