Board authorizes increasing PSF bond application to $95 million to preserve flexibility

Uplift Education Board of Trustees · January 28, 2025

Summary

Trustees approved raising the public school fund (PSF) application from $90 million to $95 million to maintain financing flexibility ahead of a potential mid-April bond issuance; board emphasized no commitment to issue bonds at this time.

Trustees voted to increase the district's application for Public School Fund (PSF)-backed bond support from $90 million to $95 million to preserve flexibility for a potential bond issuance in mid-April.

Leslie, presenting the finance update, said the finance and strategy committee is closely monitoring interest rates and recommended enlarging the application to "give us just some extra cushion." Leslie told trustees the application does not obligate the district to issue bonds: it preserves optionality. "This does not at all commit us to issuing these funds," Leslie said.

The board moved, seconded and approved the request; the chair noted a separate vote will be required before any actual issuance. The transcript records no formal roll-call tally for the motion. Trustees asked staff to keep the board apprised of changes in interest rates and financing assumptions as they approach any issuance decision.
