IN THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROANOKE, VIRGINIA,
The 18th day of September, 2006.
No. 37540-091806.
RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF NOT TO EXCEED $2,100,000.00
GENERAL OBLIGATION SCHOOL BONDS OF THE CITY OF ROANOKE, VIRGINIA,
SERIES 2006-A, TO BE SOLD TO THE VIRGINIA PUBLIC SCHOOL AUTHORITY AND
PROVIDING FOR THE FORM AND DETAILS THEREOF.
WHEREAS, the City Council (the "Council") of the City of Roanoke, Virginia
(the "City"), has determined that it is necessary and expedient to borrow an
amount not to exceed $2,000,000.00 and to issue its general obligation school
bonds for the purpose of financing certain capital projects for school purposes;
and
WHEREAS, the City held a public hearing, duly noticed, on September 18,
2006, on the issuance of the Bonds (as defined below) in accordance with the
requirements of Section 15.2-2606, Code of Virginia 1950, as amended (the
"Virginia Code"); and
WHEREAS, the Bond Sale Agreement (as defined below) shall indicate that
$2,000,000.00 is the amount of proceeds requested (the "Proceeds Requested")
from the Virginia Public School Authority (the "VPSA") in connection with the sale
of the Bonds; and
WHEREAS, the VPSA's objective is to pay the City a purchase price for the
Bonds which, in VPSA's judgment, reflects the Bonds' market value (the "VPSA
Purchase Price Objective"), taking consideration of such factors as the
amortization schedule the City has requested for the Bonds relative to the
amortization schedules requested by other localities, the purchase price to be
received by VPSA for its bonds and other market conditions relating to the sale of
the VPSA's bonds; and
WHEREAS, such factors may result in the Bonds having a purchase price
other than par and consequently (i) the City may have to issue a principal amount
of Bonds that is greater than or less than the Proceeds Requested in order to
receive an amount of proceeds that is substantially equal to the Proceeds
Requested, or (ij) if the maximum authorized principal amount of the Bonds set
forth in section 1 below does not exceed the Proceeds Requested by at least the
amount of any discount, the purchase price to be paid to the City, given the VPSA
Purchase Price Objective and market conditions, will be less than the Proceeds
Requested.
542
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF ROANOKE, VIRGINIA:
1.) Authorization of Bonds and Use of Proceeds. The Council hereby
determines that it is advisable to contract a debt and issue and sell its general
obligation school bonds in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed
$2,100,000 (the "Bonds") for the purpose of financing certain capital projects for
school purposes as described in Exhibit B. The Council hereby authorizes the
issuance and sale of the Bonds in the form and upon the terms established
pursuant to this Resolution.
2.) Sale of the Bonds. It is determined to be in the best interest of the
City to accept the offer of the VPSA to purchase from the City, and to sell to the
VPSA, the Bonds at a price, determined by the VPSA to be fair and accepted by
the Mayor and the City Manager, or either of them that is substantially equal to
the Proceeds Requested, except that the Bonds may be sold for a purchase
price not lower than 95% of the Proceeds Requested if issuing the Bonds in the
maximum principal amount authorized by Section 1 of this Resolution is
insufficient, given the VPSA Purchase Price Objective and market conditions, to
generate an amount of proceeds substantially equal to the Proceeds Requested.
The Mayor, the City Manager, or either of them and such other officer or
officers of the City as either may designate are hereby authorized and directed
to enter into a Bond Sale Agreement dated September 27, 2006, with the VPSA

Payment Date") and in the amounts set forth on Schedule I attached hereto (the
"Principal Installments"), subject to the provisions of Section 4 of this Resolution.
4.) Interest Rates and Principal Installments. The City Manager is hereby
authorized and directed to accept the interest rates on the Bonds established by
the VPSA, provided that each interest rate shall be ten one-hundredths of one
percent (0.10%) over the interest rate to be paid by the VPSA for the
corresponding principal payment date of the bonds to be issued by the VPSA (the
"VPSA Bonds"), a portion of the proceeds of which will be used to purchase the
Bonds, and provided further that the true interest cost of the Bonds does not
exceed five and fifty one-hundredths percent (5.50 %) per annum. The Interest
