No vote of the electorate is required. The bonds are a limited <br />obligation of the Agency only, with no recourse by bondholders against the City's general <br />fund in the event tax increment declines and is insufficient to pay debt service on the bonds. <br />The Agency issued tax allocation bonds in 1991 to finance various capital projects. These <br />bonds were refinanced in 1997 to save the Agency money as a result of declines in interest <br />rates. <br />In determining the size of the bond issue, the City's financial advisor has matched principal <br />and interest payments of the new bonds to projected available tax increment revenue to allow <br />the Agency to provide approximately $31 million for the Agency's projects. The bond issue <br />will be structured to allow the release of the money held in a debt service reserve fund for the <br />Agency's outstanding 1997 tax allocation bonds, which will add an additional $1.5 million to <br />available net proceeds. The bond structure uses all available tax increment and anticipates <br />
