IV.
COMMENTS FROM THE SELECTMAN
First Selectman Fortuna commented that the Resolution the Board had before it tonight is required by bond counsel. The bonding model that has gone into the public offering includes principal and interest in the first year. Interest rates look favorable right now, as the 10 year treasury has come off its highs near 3% to settle near 2.5%. The one fly in the ointment could be the Detroit bankruptcy trial which will likely not be decided before the Town goes to market.
