Costs of Issuance - Azusa USD 2022 GOB Elec 2014 Series D.pdf
Rationale: In 2014, voters approved a G. O. Bond for $92,000,000 to address capital facilities needs throughout the District. The Board of Education planned four bond issuances to fund the capital facilities program. Issuance A occurred in 2015; Issuance B occurred in 2017; Issuance C occurred in 2019; and Issuance D occurred in 2022.

The Series D Bonds were sold to RBC Capital Markets, LLC on June 7, 2022, in the aggregate principal amount shown on the attached exhibit.

Section 15146 of the California Education Code requires that actual costs of issuance of G.O. bonds sold by or on behalf of a school district be presented to the governing board and disclosed to the public at a meeting of such governing board following the sale of such bonds.

In compliance with Section 15146 of the California Education Code, the actual costs of issuance of the Series D Bonds totaled $228,475.00, as described in more detail on the exhibit attached hereto.

The sale of the 2014 G.O. Bond - Issuance D of $14,000,000 at 3.63%. A strong investor demand for the bonds reduced the interest cost by $131,121 on the day of sale.

Recommendation: It is recommended the Board of Education receive information about the successful G.O. Bond Sale - Issuance D.
