North Salt Lake Council authorizes $15M in sales tax refunding bonds
The North Salt Lake City Council on Aug. 18 authorized the issuance of up to $15 million in sales tax revenue refunding bonds, the most consequential action taken in the past two weeks. The bonds will refund all or part of the city's outstanding Series 2022 sales tax revenue bonds and pay related issuance costs, with repayment secured by local sales and use tax revenues.
City Council actions
The council adopted Resolution 2026-35R, which authorizes the bonds. The bonds carry an interest rate not to exceed 5.50% per annum, mature within 21 years, and may be sold at a discount from par not to exceed 2.00%. A 30-day public contest period for the resolution's legality began with the notice's publication.
In other action, the council awarded a bid to JLR and Sons, Inc. for city property improvements not to exceed $250,000. It also approved franchise agreements with Emery Telecom and Rocky Mountain Power, purchased trail easements at 55 West Center Street and 110 South Main Street, and approved golf cart equipment, infrastructure, and GPS purchases for Eaglewood Golf Course.
