Debt Philosophy - The use of debt financing for long- term capital improvement programs is based upon
a mix
two types of debt financing: 1) " pay- as- you- go" and 2) " pay- as- you- use". In practice, the City uses
of these two basic methods to finance its Capital Improvements Program, with pay- as- you- go financing
w~ed for recurrent capital expenditures and with pay- as- you- use financing used
for long- term, non-
recurrent capital expenditures.

Debt Policv Statement - The following policy statements govern the City' s use of debt to finance long-

and/ or motor vehicles will be financed on a pay- as- you- go basis from funds available
and
appropriated in the City's annual operating budget.
Only long- term, non- recurrent capital expenditures for public improvements having relatively greater
a
cost and longer useful life, and which require additional funding over and beyond the fiscal capacity of
c the City' s annual operating budget, will be financed through the issuance or creation of long- term
of
debt. These expenditures will not be debt-financed for periods exceeding the projected useful life
the improvement.

Revenue sources that will be used to pay long- term debt will be conservatively projected to ensure
that such debt is adequately and soundly financed.

The City will use special assessment revenue bonds or other self- supporting bonds where possible
