Campbell Absent - None Also present were - Acting City Manager Robert A. Barcinski and Assistant City Attorney Barbara A. Hall Mayor Campbell called the meeting to order and announced that this meeting has been called for the purpose of (1) consideration of alternatives with regard to repayment of Beach Renourishment Grant Anticipation Note and authorization of a funding source which may in- clude but is not limited to the appropriation of certain City funds and/or issuing a taxable note. 1. The Acting City Manager reported that the Note to cover the construction cost for the renourishment project is due to expire on Sunday and the City is still waiting for some of the Grant funds. They are asking Council to consider the extension of the Note and the manner in which they might extend it. Their recommendation is Option lB, to pay off as much of the loan as they can with grant money they now have, to extend the balance of the Note for 180 days and as the grant money comes in, pay it off. Mr. David Huddleston, Finance Director, advised that yester- day they received an additional $382,000 from the State so the net cost of extending the loan would be $7,495 rather than $7,778 as shown in the memo Council has before them. The Assistant City Attorney presented Resolution No. 27-85: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DELRAY BEACH, FLORIDA AUTHORIZING THE CITY TO ENTER INTO A LOAN AGREEMENT WITH BARNETT BANK OF PALM BEACH COUNTY FOR THE PURPOSE OF PAYING ITS 1984 BEACH RENOURISHMENT GRANT ANTICIPATION NOTE; AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF ITS 1985 GRANT ANTICIPATION NOTE EVIDENCING SUCH LOAN IN A PRIN- CIPAL AMOUNT NOT EXCEEDING $3,000,000; AUTHORIZING THE CONTINUATION OF THE INTEREST ACCOUNT AND PRINCIPAL AC- COUNT CREATED AND ESTABLISHED BY RESOLUTION NO. 77-84; AUTHORIZING THE TRANSFER OF CERTAIN MONEYS FROM THE BEACH RESTORATION FUND TO SUCH INTEREST ACCOUNT; AUTHORIZING ALL THINGS DEEMED NECESSARY OR ADVISABLE IN CONNECTION WITH THE FOREGOING AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE FOR THIS RESOLUTION.
