Executive Summary with Rationale and Impact:
Detailed description of the item and why we are doing it. This can be a separate attachment.
The proposed resolution is an administrative procedure, being undertaken to comply with Colorado statutes to preserve the City’s ability to issue private activity bonds in future years and request additional allocation when it becomes available from the Statewide balance. In general, a private activity bond is a bond issued by or on behalf of local or state government for the purpose of financing a project of a private user that allows for the bonds to have tax-exempt status. The Federal government allocates the Private Activity Bond Volume Cap Allocation to each state. The State of Colorado, in turn, allocates a proportional amount of such allocation to each local issuer based upon population. The State of Colorado’s Department of Local Affairs has allocated $39,668,757 of the State’s Volume Cap Allocation to the City and County of Denver for the year 2022, all of which remains unused at this time, and will make additional Volume Cap available soon. This resolution allows the current allocation and additional allocation to be utilized in future years, consistent with Colorado statutes and the Internal Revenue Service Code.
Private activity bonds are issued to finance various types of facilities owned or used by private entities, including multifamily housing projects, single family homes, and mortgage credit certificates. Private Activity Bonds issued by the City are special obligations, do not constitute a debt or indebtedness of the City, and do not give rise to a charge against the general credit or taxing power of the City.
