Mayor Cherry announced that the next business to come before the Board would be an ordinance authorizing issuance of bonds for the benefit of the Paducah Junior Collece (now known as University of Kentucky, Paducah Community College). The Mayor explained that KRS 165.165 authorizes the Board of Commissioners of the City of Paducah, as the legislative body of the City, to act for the benefit of Paducah Junior College in the issuance of revenue bonds to finance buildings and appurtenances to be used in connection with such institution for educational purposes in the manner provided for in KRS 162.340 to 162.380, inclusive. He pointed out that, in accordance with the City's records, it is shown that at a meeting held on October 31, 1963, the Board of Trustees of Paducah Junior College requested that the Board of Commissioners of the City undertake such financing for the benefit of the College; and that at a meeting held on November 12, 1963, the Board of Commissioners of the City complied with such request by adopting two ordinances. The first of these ordinances establish for the College a."Consolidated Educational Buildings Project" and created an issue of "Consolidated Educational Buildings Revenue Bonds," with provision that such Bonds might be issued from time to time in various series, according to the terms and provisic of this original ordinance, as supplemented, in each instance, by the adoption of ordinances determining the amount of each series, the maturity schedule, redemption provisions, and other appropriate details. The second ordinance which was adopted on November 12, 1963, was designated the "Series A. Ordinance", and pursuant thereto the City authorized and issued for the benefit of the College $1,350,000 "Consolidated Educational Buildings Revenue Bonds, Series A," the proceeds of which were applied toward the costs of establishing the "New Campus" of the College on Blandville Road. He reported that from the revenues provided to the City by the College from pledged Student Registration Fees, the City has paid maturing principal and interest, without • default; that $1,173,000 of the Series -A. -Bonds are now outstanding; and that compliance has been had with the requirements of the original ordinance, in that a Debt Service Revenue has been duly created. The Mayor reported that the Board of Trustees of the College has now adopted a Resolution requesting that the City authorize and offer at public sale $412,000 "Consolidated Educational Buildings Revenue Bonds, Series B" pursuant to a Loan Agree with the United States Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW), wherein HEW has agreed that at the public sale it will submit a bid for the purchase of such Series B Bonds at par and accrued interest and at a uniform coupon rate of three per cent (3%) per annum, subject to acceptance by the City of equal or better bids received No. 92 Proceedings of Board of Commissioners City ofPaducah—August 11, 1970 Suspend Ru from other sources, and $350,000 "Consolidated Educational Buildings Revenue Bonds, Series C," to be advertised and sold on the open market without any purchase guarante by any governmental agency. The proceeds of these Series B Bonds and Series C Bonds, together with a $461,000 Grant from HEW, are intended to be applied toward the costs of a new Library -Classroom Building on the New Campus of the College, complete with equipment, exterior utilities and site improvements. In order to provide constructi funds, the College has borrowd.d from Paducah banks; the building has now been complet+d; and funds from these cources will principally be used to repay the bank loans, together with interest thereon and other expenses incident to the porject and to the issuance and sale of the Bonds. He reported that the College has caused the Fiscal Agent and Bond Counsel to submit a suggested form of a "Series B and Series C Ordinan0 ," together with appropriate sale documents, and has recommended that the City adopt and authorize the use thereof for the stated purposes.
