' SUBJECT: SAN RAMON VALLEY UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTki%, ount✓ $125,000,000 GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS, Election of 2002, Series 2004 SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. ADOPT Resolution 2004/-544- authorizing, on behalf of San Ramon Valley Unified School District, the sale and issuance of General Obligation Bonds, Election of 2002, Series 2004 in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $125,000,000. FISCAL IMPACT There is no fiscal impact to the County related to this item. BACKGROUND Under state law, the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors is required to authorize the sale and issuance of general obligation bonds for school districts within the County. No financial obligation is assumed with these authorizations. The County's Treasurer/Tax Collector oversees the actual sale and award of the bonds. On November 5, 2002 the San Ramon Valley Unified School District held a special municipal election, at which time voters approved the issuance and sale of bonds of up to $260,000,000 in aggregate principal amount to provide financing for various school facilities projects. To date, the district has sold $72 million in bonds in one issuance. On September 21, 2004, the WCCUSD Board of Education authorized the sale of a third series of bonds, entitled "San Ramon Valley Unified School District (Contra Costa County, California), General Obligation Bonds, Election of 2002, Series 2004," in an aggregate principal of not to exceed $125,000,000 (`Series 2004 Bonds"). CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION Without the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors authorization, San Ramon Valley Unified School District would not be able to issue the Series 2004 Bonds, thereby delaying or prohibiting necessary school facilities projects.
