(without any reinvestment) to pay on November 1, 1987 all of the outstanding principal and interest
requirements on all of the City's outstanding Sewage Disposal System Revenue Bonds (General
Obligation), dated November 1, 1970. Such sum shall be paid in immediately available funds from the
Bond Reserve Account established pursuant to Section 13(B) of Ordinance No. 970, as amended. After
such payment, the aforesaid Bonds shall no longer be considered outstanding and shall have no further
lien on the Revenues of the System. Upon and after the effective date of this Ordinance, the Revenues
of the System shall be set aside into a separate fund to be designated the CITY OF ROSE CITY
SEWAGE DISPOSAL SYSTEM RECEIVING FUND (the “Receiving Fund”), and moneys so
deposited therein shall be transferred, expended and used only in the manner and order as follows:
(1) Operation and Maintenance Fund. There is hereby established a separate fund to be
designated
a the OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE FUND (the “Operation and Maintenance Fund”).
Revenues shall be transferred each quarter of the Fiscal Year, commencing July 1, 1987, from the
Receiving Fund to the Operation and Maintenance Fund to pay the reasonable and necessary current
expenses of administration and operating and maintaining the System for the ensuing quarter.
(2) Sewage Disposal System Revenue Bond – Bond and Interest Redemption Fund. There is hereby
established a separate fund to be designated as the CITY OF ROSE CITY SEWAGE DISPOSAL
SYSTEM REVENUE BOND – BOND AND INTEREST REDEMPTION FUND (the “Bond and
Interest Redemption Fund”). After the transfer required in (1) above, Revenues shall be transferred
each quarter of the Fiscal Year, commencing July 1, 1987, from the Receiving Fund, before any other
expenditures or transfer therefrom, and deposited in the Bond and Interest Redemption Fund for
payment of principal of and interest on the First Series Bond and to fund the Bond Reserve Account.
Upon any delivery of an installment of the First Series Bond on or after July 1, 1987 there shall be set
aside at the time of such delivery and on the first day of each quarter of the Fiscal Year thereafter to the
next interest payment date an amount equal to that fraction of the amount of interest due on the next
interest payment date on said installment so delivered, the numerator of which is 1 and the denominator
of which is the number of full and partial Fiscal Year quarters from the date of said delivery to the next
interest payment date. There shall also be set aside each Fiscal Year quarter on or after July 1, 1987 an
amount not less than ½ of the amount of interest due on the next interest payment date on all
outstanding installments of the First Series Bond not delivered during then current interest payment
period. Upon any delivery of an installment of the First Series Bond on or after July 1, 1987 there shall
also be set aside at the time of such delivery and on the first day of each Fiscal Year quarter thereafter
to the next principal payment date an amount equal to that fraction of principal of the First Series Bond
due on the next principal payment date on said installment so delivered, the numerator of which is 1
and the denominator of which is the number of full and partial Fiscal Year quarters from the date of
said delivery to the next principal payment date. There shall also be set aside each Fiscal Year quarter
on or after July 1, 1987 an amount not less than ¼ of the amount of principal due on the next principal
payment date on all outstanding installments of the First Series Bond not delivered during the then
current principal payment periods.
If for any reason there is a failure to make such quarterly deposit in the amounts required, then
the entire amount of the deficiency shall be set aside and deposited in the Bond Redemption Fund out
of the Revenues first received thereafter which are not required by this Ordinance to be deposited in the
Operation and Maintenance Fund or in the Bond and Interest Redemption Fund, which amount shall be
in addition to the regular quarterly deposit required during such succeeding quarter or quarters.
There is hereby established in the Bond and Interest Redemption Fund a separate account to be
designated the BOND RESERVE ACCOUNT (the “Bond Reserve Account”). Commencing July 1,
1987, there shall be withdrawn from the Receiving Fund at the beginning of each Fiscal Year quarter
and set aside in and transferred to the Bond Reserve Account, after provision has been made for the
Operation and Maintenance Fund and the current requirements of the Bond and Interest Redemption
Fund, the sum of at least $950.00 per quarter until there is accumulated in such fund the sum of
$38,000. Except as hereinafter provided, no further deposits need be made into the Bond and Interest
Redemption Fund for the purposes of the Bond Reserve Account once the sum of $38,000 has been
deposited therein. The moneys in the Bond Reserve Account shall be used solely for the payment of the
principal installments of and interest on the First Series Bond as to which there would otherwise be
default.
If at any time it shall be necessary to use moneys in the Bond Reserve Account for such
payment, then the moneys so used shall be replace from the Net Revenues first received thereafter
which are not required by this Ordinance to be used for operation and maintenance or for current
principal and interest requirements for the First Series Bond.
No further payments need be made into the Bond and Interest Redemption Fund after enough of
the principal installments of the First Series Bond have been retired so that the amount then held in the
Bond and Interest Redemption Fund (including the Bond Reserve Account), is equal to the entire
amount of principal and interest which will be payable at the time of maturity of all the principal
installments of the First Series Bond then remaining outstanding.
Any amount on deposit in the Bond and Interest Redemption Fund in excess of the requirements
for paying principal installments of and interest on the First Series Bond due during the ensuing
eighteen months, plus the requirements of the Bond Reserve Account, may be used by Issuer for
redemption of principal installments of the First Series Bond in the manner set forth in Section 9
hereof.

invested in accordance with Section 13 of this Ordinance, and profit realized or income earned on such
invest shall be used or transferred as provided in Section 13 of this Ordinance.

commencing July 1, 1989 from the Receiving Fund, and the sum of $250 deposited in the improvement
Fund, until the total amount in the Improvement Fund shall equal $10,000. The total of such deposits to
the improvement Fund and the balance therein need not exceed the sum of $10,000. Moneys in the
Improvement Fund shall be used and disbursed only for the purpose of paying the cost of making
extensions or improvements to the System, and when necessary, for the purpose of making payments of
principal of and interest on the Bonds. If the amount in the Bond and Interest Redemption Fund, the
Bond Reserve Account and the Reconstruction Fund is not sufficient to pay the principal of and interest
on the Bonds when due, then moneys in the Improvement Fund shall be transferred to the Bond and
Interest Redemption Fund and used for that purpose. The moneys in the Improvement Fund may be
invested in accordance with Section 13 of this Ordinance. Any profit realized or interest income earned
on such investment will be part of the Improvement Fund until the balance therein equals the sum of
$10,000; thereafter such profit or interest income shall deposited in or credited to the Receiving Fund.

insufficient to provide for the current requirements of the Operation and Maintenance Fund, the Bond
and Interest Redemption Fund (including the Bond Reserve Account), the Reconstruction Fund or the
Improvement Fund, any moneys and/or securities in the funds of the System established by this
Ordinance shall be transferred, first, to the Operation and Maintenance Fund, and second, to the Bond
and Interest Redemption Fund, and third, to the Replacement Fund, and fourth, to the Improvement
Fund.

above requirements shall be transferred to the Bond and Interest Redemption Fund and used to call
Bonds or portions thereof for redemption, or at the option of the Issuer, transferred to the Improvement
Fund and used for the purpose for which it was established; provided, however, that if there should be a
deficit in the Operation and Maintenance Fund, the Bond and Interest Redemption Fund, the Bond
Reserve Account, the Reconstruction Fund or the Improvement Fund, on account of defaults in setting

remaining in the Receiving Fund to such funds in the priority and order named in this Section, to the
extent of such deficits.

City may proceed in District Court, Circuit Court, or in any other court of competent jurisdiction for
the collection of the charges.
SECTION 8 – NON-EXCLUSIVE CHARGE.
The foregoing rates and charges to be established shall not be exclusive of the charges that may
be made by the City for the costs and expenses of maintaining a Fire Department, but shall only be
supplemental thereto. Additional charges may be collected by the City through general taxation after a
vote of the electorate approving the same or by a special assessment established under the Michigan
statutes pertaining thereto. General fund appropriations may also be made to cover such additional
costs and expenses.
SECTION 9 – MULTIPLE PROPERTY PROTECTION.
When a particular service rendered by the Fire Department benefits more than one person or
property, the owner of the each property so benefited, and each person so benefited, where property
protection is one involved, shall be liable for the payment of a portion of the charge for fire service.
The interpretation and application of the within section is hereby delegated to the Mayor of the City
subject only to appeal, within the time limits for payment, to the City Council, and shall be
