Refunding Bonds. BACKGROUND: The County’s Series 2003 Bonds, which the proposed Series 2013 Bonds will refund, were issued as “private activity bonds,” since they financed improvements to the airport used in part by private parties (generally, the commercial airlines). Under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), prior to issuance of such refunding Series 2013 Bonds the County is required to hold a duly noticed public hearing (also called a TEFRA hearing), at which members of the public may comment on the advisability of issuing or not issuing the Series 2013 Bonds for such purpose. After such hearing is held, the County may “approve” the issuance of the Series 2013 for purposes of the Code. OPTIONS: Approve, Table, Disapprove RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approval of the Resolution allowing the issuance of Series 2013 Okaloosa County, Florida Airport Revenue Refunding Bonds.
