The ordinance text authorizes the bonds and related documents and directed city staff to proceed with sale and delivery according to applicable procedures.
No amendments to the bill were proposed during the meeting and no dissenting votes were recorded. The council stated the bonds will support projects in the city’s adopted capital program; the ordinance did not specify individual project-by-project allocations in the spoken record.
The ordinance was recorded as adopted on a unanimous roll call and will be processed through the city's standard closing and debt-administration steps.
