[00:08] That pastor of Southern meals, that Mr. Chairman, Mr. Chairman, thanks for being here.

[00:32] that you would bless and watch over.
[00:34] This meeting now is we make decisions, gives wisdom, and guidance and insight and Lord

[00:40] We pray that in Jesus Christ's precious and holy name.
[00:43] Amen.
[00:44] Thank you.
[00:45] Doug, would you like to play?
[00:46] I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which
[00:52] stands one nation under God, in the middle of the liberty and justice for all.
[00:59] Good.
[01:00] I report the presentation of the NSW Lecture Systems of Oklahoma, Dr. Gregg,
[01:05] Grant's Customer Service Award to you, customer service supervisor, Heather Thayley.
[01:10] How are you?
[01:11] Thank you.
[01:12] Thank you very much.
[01:13] Good evening.
[01:14] I'm Tom Reiner on the General Manager for the Municipal Lecture Systems of Oklahoma.
[01:18] Soon to be the Oklahoma Municipal Alliance.
[01:20] I'll let Taylor and Tyler's on the board to go through all that if you're wondering
[01:25] about it.
[01:26] With that thought, it is my distinct pleasure to come up here to recognize Heather.
[01:29] Heather was nominated by Jill Pisskin to put the Dr. Gregg Prize Award
[01:33] to Dr. Gregg Prize Award named after an individual Gregg Prize.
[01:36] Who served 30 years as the Director of Customer Service for the Oklahoma Municipal
[01:41] Public Authority and before that, a city manager for creating a black web.
[01:46] And Rick was well known for helping out any city, any time where there are
[01:50] a member city or not.
[01:51] And so the visa award came in and nominated this award after him.
[01:56] And Heather was nominated because of her outstanding customer service and the way she treats people.
[02:02] Jill Stath and I'm going to quote this because I want to make sure I get it right.
[02:05] She's rated two auditions between co-workers and customers.
[02:09] So it's aways pleasant and courteous, no matter the situation.
[02:12] And it's with that understanding that I learned just a little while ago
[02:15] the fact that because of her operations, the way they do things,
[02:19] you have many fewer visits to the city manager for customer service tensions.
[02:23] And so I'd come in.
[02:25] And I'm being surprised to have that but at the same time that she says,
[02:28] you're a great deal about the way Heather runs her staff, the way she manages down there
[02:32] and the people that she has worked in for her.
[02:34] So I would like to ask her.
[02:36] Oh, there you are.
[02:37] Thank you.
[02:38] You know, there are those of us who are paranoid.
[02:41] So with that, though, I would like to present to you the Drake price.
[02:45] That's for service.
[02:46] Thank you.
[02:47] Thank you.
[02:59] Nambe.
[03:00] for the Council, Heather, the well deserved.
[03:02] Thank you very much.
[03:03] And thank you, Mr. Wright, if we're coming up tonight.
[03:05] Absolutely.
[03:09] Item five is public input on scheduled personal
[03:11] appearances, and you want the audience at which it should
[03:13] address the utility authority on any of the agenda items.
[03:19] Being non-ide up 60 consent agenda staff is recommending item
[03:22] 7 through 10.
[03:24] You place on the approved on the consent agenda.
[03:29] Take a quick look at those, and if there are no questions or concerns,
[03:32] if you're going to take the most of your clues, you can send it
[03:34] into as recommended.
[03:38] A big motion to approve.
[03:39] And a second, please.
[03:41] Sorry.
[03:42] Roll call.
[03:43] Question four, sir.
[03:45] Aye.
[03:46] Work it.
[03:46] Aye.
[03:47] Solve.
[03:48] Aye.
[03:49] Item 11.
[03:50] Whoo.
[03:51] It's just so long.
[03:53] I don't read the whole thing.
[03:54] We've got four up and then make up the whole page.
[03:59] Basically discussing taking action on a resolution to file
[04:03] applications with the LWRB for financing and financial assistance
[04:07] for the loan program with the proceeds, being for the purpose of
[04:11] refinancing certain outstanding indebtedness.
[04:13] Tyler, you want to elaborate on that or make it a little clearer.
[04:17] So we, if you don't mind, we'll just start by all three of them at one time.
[04:19] So the 11, 12 and 13.
[04:21] Yes, we're in the show.
[04:22] The first agenda item is four that the loan application to whatever you
[04:25] need to appoint a lot of resources for it, and also for a
[04:27] professional services for us to approve the engagement letter with
[04:31] public finance law group, which they're here tonight.
[04:33] They will be our bond council for this, as we're
[04:36] divided by open all our resources for it.
[04:38] So they, they do many, many of these do have more resources
[04:42] for it.
[04:43] So I think they actually said around 80% of the loan
[04:46] resources for it.
[04:48] So just to kind of talk about the three programs, we're going to do.
[04:50] So we talked about these a few weeks ago, but just to go over them.
[04:53] So the first thing we're doing is called the FAPLum, the
[04:56] financial assistance program loan.
[04:58] So currently we have two FAPLum's outstanding
[05:01] with the Water Resources Board at three concepts in the
[05:03] interest rate.
[05:04] These loans also have required a debt service for our debt
[05:08] coverage for us to have an annual reserve within.
[05:10] So with the new FAPL program, with the new FAPLum that we will do,
[05:14] we're going to unlock that debt service that we have setting aside.
[05:18] So with us, I'm walking that money.
[05:20] We will use that on central development project, which is just
[05:23] generated.
[05:24] It's kind of just kicked off this last week.
[05:26] So that'll pay for that.
[05:28] We also, that interest rate on those two FAPs are at 3.7% right now.
[05:33] I know in the packet, I put 2.091, I'm going to just ask them what the rate was.
[05:39] This week, you know, is it a date, and they tell me it's 1.8%.
[05:43] Now, is that locked in yet, or is that just what's available this week?
[05:47] That's what it was.
[05:48] So that's that of two weeks ago, and the power of order is underwriter estimated
[05:52] we're about six weeks from the price of that.
[05:57] So the second one is the DWSRF, or the drinking one.
[06:00] we've all been thrown. So this is just like the name to the drinking water. So I've
[06:03] been drinking water projects. So we talked about these. This is just the different
[06:10] products around town. Currently we estimated our on-armorization schedule will be 2.37
[06:15] percent. It's actually a little better right now at that. But once we lock that in which
[06:21] we're hoping to close on them in August, if we've grouped in on it, we'll do that. The last
[06:26] one I'm excited to say. The second one is that a new loan. Yes, there's no reason to
[06:32] answer it. It's a totally new loan. And then the last one is the CWSRF, which is the clean
[06:38] water state revolving fund. So this is for your sewer, your sanitary sewer, and also
[06:43] for storm sewer. So like in Main Street, when we finally get it out to allow us to bid that
[06:48] out. We're going to use some of the funds for that. We're going to do some work up there
[06:52] in the industrial parking, putting the sewer out there to our near expansion. Those are the
[06:56] projects. I'm excited to stay on this one. We talked to the point where we should work
[07:01] today. And if this is rooftop night, then we are locked in at 2.01% interest, so which is pretty
[07:06] well for 20 years. It's fixed rates. Okay. So we're a quick clarification because we were
[07:15] talking about new debt. And do keep in mind that our rates are structured in such a way to
[07:20] accommodate this debt. So this is a long term long range plan. Exactly. So like Dean
[07:28] said, you know, with this has all been with the rates that we deal with well and all this
[07:31] units into the debt coverage, the debt service that he has. I would also like to point out the
[07:38] 2.0 that we were at 2.01. Is the second lowest that we've ever had? I've broken the record twice, but
[07:47] you can't close. Sorry. I had to read that. I'm happy to answer any questions. And like I said,
[07:57] we have a, I can introduce them now. We have a NAOS. And at your Davidson, I'm the answer if you
[08:03] have any questions. It didn't very helpful on the process. And all three of these, well, the one is a
[08:10] refinance with some benefits besides the lower rate and freeing up some capital for other projects. The
[08:17] other two are for projects that were anticipated and budgeted and in the long range planning we did with
[08:26] the bill. Yes, sir. And then the thing also to consider on these is these are just like construction
[08:31] on them. So you just start paying on them as you spend the money. So. So when we were working on those plans,
[08:38] we had some anticipated rate increases based on anticipated interest rates, etc. We would be able to scale
[08:46] back on any of those rate increases or you got a chance to get that for. I mean, this is just, we, you guys
[08:53] have a pass right now. We'll pay for like our, is what's going to pay for this these long right now.
[08:57] So I mean in the future, we could look at the nature.
[09:00] if they stay low, you know, maybe not having.
[09:03] Or another option that might be not scaling back on the rates,
[09:06] but you might remember we had multiple rates
[09:08] increases for multiple bond issues in the culture.
[09:12] So more than likely what it would mean
[09:14] is that any future increases might be able to be lower
[09:18] because of these better rates that we have.
[09:23] Any other questions for Tyler or Dean?
[09:28] Bandouini, take these one at a time.
[09:30] I know Tyler covered all three of them,
[09:31] but I assume we need to.
[09:32] Yes, we do.
[09:33] And just in the interest of full disclosure,
[09:37] I need to point out that 40 some years ago,
[09:41] I used to work for the predecessor of this law firm,
[09:45] which these guys weren't even born yet.
[09:47] I don't think.
[09:51] And you'll have to, and they became wildly successful.
[09:53] That's not a good idea.
[09:55] OK, so we need a motion to approve the resolution
[10:04] on item number 11, which is agreeing to file the applications
[10:07] with the ORB for financing.
[10:11] And I'm assuming filing the applications the same thing
[10:15] is, I mean, we're applying for, and if we're approved,
[10:18] because that need to come back before this body again,
[10:20] or we just roll forward from that.
[10:22] Yes, the application gets the law of work
[10:25] for them to consider below, kind of,
[10:27] combining a lot of steps here in just a time.
[10:31] The next three items are the formal approvals
[10:33] of temperature of three individual levels.
[10:36] OK, so do we have most of you approve item 11?
[10:39] And a second?
[10:40] Second.
[10:40] roll call, please.
[10:41] Or could?
[10:42] Western, orster?
[10:44] Should.
[10:45] Item 12 was considered to take the action of respect
[10:47] to resolution for the Miami Special Utility Authority,
[10:51] approving authorizing the clean water SRF loan
[10:54] from the Oklahoma Water Resources Board.
[10:57] And total aggregate principle amount not to exceed 4,450,000.
[11:02] And do we have a motion to approve item 12?
[11:05] Submit.
[11:07] Second, roll call, please.
[11:09] Orster?
[11:10] Western.
[11:11] Orster?
[11:12] Should.
[11:13] Item 13 considered to take the action of respect
[11:15] to resolution of the Miami Special Utility Authority
[11:18] authorizing a loan from the ORB in the total aggregate
[11:21] principle amount not to exceed 2,000,000,000,
[11:25] approving the issuance of series 2019 B Promissory Note
[11:29] to the ORB.
[11:30] Do we have a motion to approve item 13?
[11:34] I'll make that motion.
[11:35] Do we have a second?
[11:36] Second.
[11:36] roll call, please.
[11:38] Should.
[11:39] Western, orster?
[11:41] Orster?
[11:42] Yes.
[11:43] Last item, different Tyler, because you said,
[11:45] tour, you said.
[11:46] So the first one was the application and application
[11:49] but the second one was the clean water, which is the Sanitary
[11:54] Souver.
[11:55] The item 13 was the FAB, which we talked about,
[11:58] and then item 14.
[12:00] is the drinking water.
[12:02] So we've already talked about it.
[12:04] Yes, we've already talked about it.
[12:06] So do we have most of your approved item,
[12:08] 14, which is take action with respect to a resolution
[12:12] by the MSUA, approving and authorizing the drinking water
[12:16] SRF loan in the total aggregate principle amount,
[12:20] not exceed 2,785,000,
[12:22] and approving the issuance of the promissory note.
[12:26] And I'll second that roll call please.
