Modifying Measure A’s Borrowing Limit
July 14, 2010
Measure A Legal Details
Comparing the Limits
• $180 million of debt limit utilized
• Delivery Plan restructured
• Numerous projects nearing construction
• Favorable interest rates & bids
• Opportunity to create jobs
Current Situation
GOAL: Increase limit to provide flexibility without sacrificing prudence or oversight
• $975 million limit – slightly less than 25% of projected revenue total
• Higher limit does not result in immediate action – Commission approval of all financings are maintained
Proposal
• RCTC must reimburse county
• 2002 cost was $372,000
• Election costs are Measure A eligible
• Private sector financed campaign still needed
Costs
• Communicate ballot measure to Supervisors
• Obtain vote from Supervisors - July 27 or at special meeting
• Seek voter approval in November
Next Steps
