RECOMMENDATION: Request that the Huntington Beach Public Facilities Corporation reimburse to the City $100,000 and appropriate these funds into the Library Service Fund Account #LX391903 to be used for the Library Expansion furniture and equipment ANALYSIS The Public Facilities Corporation has already reimbursed to the City $1,900,000 which was used for the Library Expansion. The Public Facilities Corporation Treasurer's Report indicates that they have non committed funds in the amount of $105,034.36 as of September 30, 1992. At their board meeting of October 28, 1992, the board suggested that the City Council request the Public Facilities Corporation board to reimburse these funds to the city. It was suggested that these funds be used for the library expansion for furniture and equipment. The current construction does not include all furnishings and equipment. These funds will be important to acquire certain items such as computers, books, study tables, and other items to assure that the library is completed. If the City Council concurs with the staff recommendation, the Public Facilities Corporation Board is expected to take action at their January 27, 1993 meeting. Council established a Library Service Fund for funds designated to the Library Expansion Project. These reimbursed funds would be placed into that account. FUNDING SOURCE None required.

Franz, Deputy City Administrator Subject: Excess Public Facility Corporation Funds APPROVED IftCITY,1601UNCE Consistent with Council Policy? [X] Yes [ ] New Policy or Excep di CITY CLERKn Statement of Issue, Recommendation, Analysis, Funding Source, Alternative Actions, Attac ments: Statement of Issue: At the last Public Facilities Corporation Meeting, the Board discussed the possibility of returning to the City an excess accumulation of funds primarily derived from City lease payments. Recommendation: Request that the Public Facilities Corporation provide available excess funds to the City. -- e Analysis: The Public Facilities Corporation has accumulated a surplus of approximately one-half million dollars. Pursuant to Section 504 of the Bond Indenture, after required transfers and deposits have been made, the balance in the Bond Redemption Fund can be declared surplus and upon receipt of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, the funds can be used for the following purposes; 1) to purchase PFC bonds on the open market, 2) to call bonds for redemption prior to their maturity, 3) to reimburse the City for any rent previously paid. Public Facilities Corporation is desirous of pursuing the last option.The Board of Directors has requested that the City Council formally request the excess funds from the Public Facilities Corporation. They recognize that the City wants to expand the Library and would want the returned rent to be used for that purpose. However, rent returned to the City is General Fund revenue. The City Council is the body which decides how these funds will be used. Previously when funds were returned, the City Council decided to receive the funds within the General Fund and reserve_ a portion of that fund in a like amount for Library expenditures. In addition, the Public Facilities Corporation has expressed its interest in cooperating with the City to complete the Library expansion. The Public Facilities Corporation requests that the City Council asks for their concurrence in any future Central Library construction projects. Funding Source: Not applicable. Alternative Actions: 1. Express desire of receiving funds without sending letter. 2. Do not request funds at this time. 3. Direct alterations to the letter. Attachment: 1.
