~iss Dolores Hoyt, City Treasurer

Port Townsend, Washington
Re: Port Tovmsend Special Water Revenue Bonds
No. 7-0722
Dear I'.1i ss Hoyt:
Now that the construction of the Ì'vater1ine is complete we are left '¡'lith approximately ~þ109,000
in the Construction Fund.
I
According to our interpretat:1.on of' the Ordinance' thére are two possibili tes in handling
this money:
(1) it may be left in the Construction Fund on the written direction of the City where
it may be used by the city f'or the purpose of Dlaking replac:eoments to the lease system
other than thoes described in Ordinance No. 1318; or
(2) it shall be transferred to the Bond Redemption Fund.
8
There are no provisj.ons for iŒlesting money within the Bond Redemption Fund. It would have
to be held in cash until such time there was enough money to redeenl all of the bonds out-
standing.
Therefore, it is our rec OInrnenda tion tlLe money be 1ef t in the Cons true tion Fund and inve s ted
in U.S. Government securities. At present' you may expect to receive a 5 3/4 % yield which is
greater than the interest you arc pay'ng 01': the bonds novi out~;tanding; naxnely, betneen 2.75%
and 3.15%.
Our fee f'or handling the monies in the Construction Fund would be 1/4 of 1% of' the amount
invested annually. Them3fore, would you present these reconmwndations to the City Council
when they meet December 19 and \'te will act in accordance wi th their direc.tions. The letter
should also approve our proposea fee.
Should you need any additional information or clarification you may expect our full cooperation
Yours very truly, Collin E. Blakley Assistant Trust Off~cer
