$5,865,000; and
WHEREAS, the following documents have been submitted to
the Council, and have been or will be placed on file with the
City Clerk:
(a) Indenture of Trust, to be dated as of May 1, 1991
(the "Indenture") proposed to be made and entered
into between the City and the Trustee;
(b) Origination, Servicing and Administration Agreements,
each to be dated as of May 1, 1991 (the "Origination

City and Miller & Schroeder Financial, Inc., Stifel,
Nicolaus & Co., Inc. and Meridian Capital Markets,
Inc. (the "Underwriters");
(d) Preliminary Official Statement, relating to the
Bonds.
IT IS HEREBY DETERMINED AND DECLARED by the Council as
follows:
(1) Issuance of the Bonds will result in a substantial
savings to the City in revenues expended for principal and
interest on the Prior Bonds.
(2) The Council has determined that long-term mortgage
loans for housing located within the City are not otherwise
available, wholly or in part, from private lenders upon
equivalent terms and conditions to those to be provided by the
City under its Program described in the Indenture.
(3) The refunding of the Prior Bonds and the use of
$5,865,000 by the Trustee for the financing of mortgages will
allow the City to promote the public welfare by maintaining and
preserving adequate housing stock within the City by providing
for the acquisition of existing single family residential units
by low or moderate income families of first-time home buyers at
lower interest rates on mortgages.
(4) In establishing the maximum mortgage amounts and
maximum purchase prices for single family dwellings qualifying
under the Program, the City has taken into account housing cost
differences in the regions of the state.
(5) The payments required or provided for by the
Indenture or the Origination Agreements are intended to produce
revenues sufficient to provide for the payment when due of
principal and interest on all Bonds issued under the Indenture
and for payments which are required for such expenses, among
others, as the administration of the Program and servicing of
the Loans, as will be necessary to protect the interests of the
City.
(6) The Bonds will be a limited obligation of the City
payable solely from revenues generated by the Program, and the
City will not be liable for any payment on the Bonds.
(7) The commission to be paid to the Underwriters as
provided in the Purchase Contract is in an amount determined by
the City to be reasonable in light of the risk assumed and the
expenses of issuance, if any, required to be paid to the
Underwriters.
(8) The City hereby interprets its Charter as follows:
the limitations contained in Section 6.16 of the City's Charter
do not apply to the Bonds since the Bonds do not constitute
bonded debt of the City and since the other provisions of
Section 6.16 apply and are relevant only to bonded debt. The
City is granted all powers granted in the Act pursuant to
Section 6.15(a) of the Charter and the Bonds are subject to
separate limitations contained in the Act.
