| The City Commission of the City of Miami Beach adopted Ordinance No. 90-2701 on July 25, 1990, creating the City of Miami Beach Health Facilities Authority (the "Authority'') to assist health facilities in the acquisition, construction, financing, and refinancing of health facility related projects in the City.
The Ordinance, as amended, provides that the Authority can issue bonds and notes to of provide funds to pay all or part of the cost of any project or any other lawful purpose and to issue refunding bonds. The Ordinance provides that the City Commission must approve any bonds issued by the Authority as the final step in the approval process.
As a result of the current low interest rate environment, the Medical Center requested that the Authority assist them in the issuance of the Bonds. The Bonds will be sold in a negotiated sale through a direct purchase by TD Bank, N.A. (the “Purchaser”). The Series 2014 Bonds, which will be refunded by the Series 2021 Bonds, are eligible for a tax-exempt refunding as they are currently callable. Since the Series 2012 Bonds are not currently callable, they will be refunded by the TD Bank Loan, which will then be refunded by the Series 2022 Bonds to be issued in November 2022. To lock in the refunding savings under current favorable market conditions, the Series 2022 Bonds will be sold to the Purchaser in accordance with a Forward Bond Purchase Agreement to be entered into among the Authority, the Medical Center and the Purchaser in mid- February, 2021. To lock in refunding savings under current favorable market conditions, the Series 2022 Bonds will be sold to the Purchaser in accordance with a Forward Bond Purchase Agreement entered into among the Authority, the Medical Center and the Purchaser. The interest rate on the Bonds will be locked in mid- February, 2021, and the Series 2022 Bonds will be purchased on November 15, 2022.
The Authority held a public hearing on February 1, 2021, as required by Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to provide all interested persons an opportunity to express their views in connection with the Authority’s proposed plan of financing regarding the issuance of the Bonds.
