He <br />questioned if the city can pay the bonds off early if it collects more sales tax than <br />anticipated. <br />Ms. Ziemer stated it would be possible as the bonds will have a 10 -year can date, so <br />2029 would be the earliest date to call the bonds. If the city collects more than <br />needed, this additional amount will be put into a debt service fund. <br />Council -member Christianson asked if it made sense to make one issuance or two. <br />Ms. Ziemer stated this is under review. <br />P 0 f EAE 1 I T <br />
