Commission reviews bond‑compliance program; refunding bond of about $1.9M planned

Crawford County Commission · July 25, 2025

Summary

Commissioner Jim told the board the SEC is pressing counties to host bond compliance data and proposed hiring Gilmore & Bell for $1,750 per year to manage compliance; he also previewed a roughly $1.9 million refunding bond to be discussed on August 5.

Commissioner Jim told the Crawford County Commission that underwriters and regulators now expect local governments to maintain compliance documentation on a dedicated database for bond issues, and recommended hiring Gilmore & Bell to provide the service at a cost of $1,750 per year. Jim said the fee would be included in the upcoming bond issue and therefore not paid directly from county coffers.

On the pending public‑building commission matter, Jim said the group is preparing paperwork for an August 5 meeting and that the public building commission is exploring a refunding bond of about $1,900,000. He told commissioners the entities being refunded are in sound financial condition and that the refunding is expected to reduce outstanding principal and generate savings.
