The “Good
Neighbors”
Belvidere Parade
By James Middleton
The sun shown bright in downtown Belvidere on that day.
The telltale shadows descending from the carriages and
men dressed in top hats and fedoras disclosed the weather
conditions on that summer day. The photograph was
shot facing north by northwest in Belvidere on a day of
celebration that marched into the pages of history and is no
longer recognized.
The event being commemorated was the annual “Good
Neighbors Parade.”
Though no actual date of the photograph was give, the
parade was likely staged sometime in the 1870s. There
were no rails running down south State Street and that
would place the relative time in the 1870s or perhaps later
during the 1880s. The pole in the foreground was one of
the new electrical power poles that were being erected to
create a network in the city to provide this new form of
energy.
The era of the photograph marked an age of change across
the nation and in Belvidere. The village was advancing
from a small collection of people and families into an
incorporation that began to resemble a town. Decades
later many in Belvidere would mark the settlement as a
small city. The result of the 2010 census count of residents
elevated the city to a “home rule” status under Illinois law.
The “Good Neighbors Parade,” as can be seen in the
photograph, allowed the residents to don their Sunday best
suit for a purpose other than to go to church. In those days
men wore celluloid collars on their shirts under black wool
suits. Women wore those airy lacey cotton dresses with the
high collars, the wrist-length sleeves and the ankle length
skirts.
Unless the community celebration accommodated a specific
date during the year, most such celebrations occurred in
the core of the summer when warm and sunny conditions
could be better relied to occur than in February. Men of
that era wore their all wool black suits and endured the heat
and humidity while the women, as they often are, appeared
to be comfortable and unfazed by what could have been
upper 90º temperatures.
The purpose of the “Good Neighbor Parade” was to
develop and expand civic pride. The purpose was also
to afford downtown merchants the opportunity to present
their wares to a large audience and to realize a strong week
of sales.
Many towns and villages create similar annual events that
are designed to expand civic pride and to enhance the sales
of downtown merchants. In the 1870 and later, civic pride
was perhaps a bit more important to the city than today.
There was in those days an enhanced willingness of people
Reviewing County
Committees
By James Middleton
In the Monday meeting of the Boone County administrative
and legislative committee, a subject arose that has appeared
for debate from time-to-time. The subject focuses on
asking if Boone County governmental committees could
be combined to diminish the total number of monthly
meetings that must occur to manage the needs of the county.
In total, the Boone County Board has seven committees
with one of those seven combining the county with the city
in city and county coordinating.
When the agenda was considered for approval Monday
night County representative Cathy Ward (District 2) asked
that discussion of the committee arrangement be discussed.
Ms. Ward did not plan for action to occur but what she
wanted was for there to be an exchange of ideas among the
assembled representatives to find if there was any interest
to consider the creation of a new relationship between the
committees.
She acknowledged that the subject of committee
reconfiguration comes for discussion but to date, few
to participate in their community. This was then the case,
not so much from a political perspective, but more within a
social and cultural context.
In order to engage the community or to participate people
had to leave their homes in the late 19th Century. There
was, of course, no TV, no radio and no Internet. As seen in
the photograph, the village was then becoming interlaced
at the time of the parade with a network of wires and poles
to provide for what would soon be described by many as
“the wonders of electricity.” It is perhaps impossible for
many today to imagine an age when electricity was not a
public service to be taken-for-granted.
The men assembled in the foreground of the photograph
were a military marching band of that day. The entire
procession appears to be awaiting the arrival of a drum
major to raise a baton and start the proceedings. It is
unknown today but perhaps this photograph was a testshot the photographer captured to frame his exposure.
In the early days before digital instant photographic
reproductions, photographers would frame their images
with multiple shots using varying F-Stops or iris openings.
The men aligned behind the band were the surviving Civil
War veterans from Belvidere and Boone County. Many
of those men marched with General Stephen Augustus
Hurlbut and fought in Vicksburg, Chattanooga and down to
Atlanta. Some followed General Hurlbut when he left the
ranks of General Grant and General Sherman’s divisions.
General Hurlbut went to Mobile, Alabama where he
quelled disturbances there while Grant marched toward
Richmond and Sherman burned Atlanta and everything
else in his wake except for Savannah.
Legend has it that the “gentlemen” of Savannah left their
city and encountered Sherman as he was leaving Augusta
in ashes. The gentlemen invited Sherman and his 50,000
or more troops into town to dine and to drink like kings and
leave the city untouched by flames of guns.
There is an old expression from the Deep South that
separates people from Atlanta and Augusts from those in
Savannah. The saying goes, “Those from Atlanta will ask,
‘What do you do for a living?’ Those from Augusta will
ask, “Who’s your family?’ and those from Savannah with
ask, ‘What are you drinking?’”
The deal was struck and Savannah survived General
Sherman and his Union forces. Some of the men shown
here likely marched with generals Hurlbut, Grant and
Sherman. On this day, they marched with their neighbors
and their brethren to celebrate what it meant for them to be
a “Good Neighbor.”
The city today might likely enjoy a rebirth of the “Good
Neighbor Parade.” Perhaps a parade and maybe a few
bargains from the few remaining downtown merchants
might entice people on a warm Sunday afternoon from
their TV baseball game, Internet dating on their computer
or maybe even the outdoor grille and a rack of ribs.
The Journal wants to thank the Boone County Historical
Society for allowing use of the photograph. Research
material was also obtained from various sites associated
with Wikipedia.com the “Internet Encyclopedia.”
changes have occurred. She said, “I cannot say that any
reconfiguration would save any money but I would offer
that we could look to the committees to see what or if any
could be combined.”
It was pointed out that on Monday, two committees met.
The first was the public safety committee and the second
was the administrative and legislative committee. The
reason for the two committees meeting was a function
of the calendar. It is typical that the administrative and
legislative committee meets on the first Monday of the
month.
Ms. Ward suggested that perhaps health and human services
could be combined with public safety.
County representative Paul Larson (District 2) suggested
that perhaps the County Board could hold shorter meetings.
He made reference to the shortened length of meetings
that has occurred with the new administration elected to
manage Belvidere.
County representative Bill Pysson (District 1) asked if
the county administration had ever formally evaluated the
current committee structure.
County administrator Ken Terrinoni said, “There has been
periodic discussion of the committee structure and possible
changes.” He suggested an alternative to making a formal
change and said, “You can set aside a portion of the year
and combine some of the committees. However, if you
were to change the structure you would have to change the
County Code. But, there are many ways that this could be
done.”
Ms. Ward said she though a possible alteration of the
committee structure was an idea that should bear further
consideration. Mr. Terrinoni added, “The work is often very
similar from month-to-month and perhaps an alteration of
the structure could mean fewer evenings out. There are
many ways to go and to combine these meetings.”
Every month the County Board meeting is held on the third
Wednesday of the month and that date effectively dictates
when the committee meetings would need to occur.
Regarding any possible changes to the committee structure,
Mr. Terrinoni added, “The addition of ‘Board Docs’ has
helped.”
Board Docs is a computer application that allows for the
myriad documents that must accompany every county
meetings are today available digitally and delivered via
the county Internet website. The use of Board Docs saves
the county administration office time and money with
the documents delivered via online transmission and the
copying of multiple copies of those documents is avoided.
No formal action was taken on the question except for the
item to be included on the agenda for the May meeting of
the administrative and legislative committee.

St. James Church
Into the Future
By James Middleton
A formal groundbreaking event occurred Monday
afternoon taking the next step in the future of St. James
Catholic Church in Belvidere. The Parish Priest, Father
Brian Geary said after the dirt was overturned, “This is a
very good day for St. James.”
Monday marked a mythical end to the first phase of
a major undertaking by the church Parish Council to
respond to the need for more space for parishioners. The
congregation had grown over the years while the walls and
rooms of the church and the sanctuary remained unchanged.
Because of the increased number of Sunday parishioners,
the Parish had to provide multiple Masses to accommodate
all of those that wanted to worship.
The initial plan was for the church to raze the existing
building and to build a new church. However, that option
encountered significant opposition within the congregation
so as to split the parishioners between those that supported
a new church in town and those that supported the
construction of a new church on the west edge of Belvidere
on land that had been bequeathed to the church.
To accomplish that goal the parish had to apply to
the city for special use zoning and to obtain pledges and
contributions to fund the construction. The zoning was
obtained but the pledges were not in sufficient amount to
begin the construction. As the anniversary of the zoning
changes was near, the church applied for an extension
that was granted. However, by that time, a remodel and
expansion of the existing building became a more popular
move.
That move also required city approval that was approved
but without the controversy that had accompanied the
original request. With that step accomplished the parish
then sought to obtain the pledges and the funding necessary
to begin the remodeling and expansion project.
On Monday, the applicant for the city special uses, Jeff
Linkenheld, a parishioner at St. James said, “The entire
project is estimated to cost about $5 million. We have
about $3 million in pledges and contributions in the house
and the balance will be provided in the form of a loan from
the Rockford Dioceses.”
Rockford Structures won the construction contract to
handle the project and they have already begun their work.
The Parish anticipates an ambitious building schedule and
Father Geary said, “We expect that we will be in the new
structure by Thanksgiving Day, that is our plan.”
From the outside, it is evident that some of the stained
glass windows have been removed. Mr. Linkenheld said
that the stained glass windows are expected to be used in
the newly expanded church.
Inside the old building, all of the pews have been
removed. The floor is now covered by sheets of plywood.
The altar and all of the elements that hung on the walls
have also been removed.
For a period of time, two walls will be removed to
accommodate the expansion of the building. Weather
conditions have improved to the extent that the project can
move forward but for the possible delay of spring showers.
When the ceremony began, Bishop David Malloy
presided over the ceremonies. He said, “We are all here for
one of those moments in history. All of you here, school
kids and others should remember this day as a moment in
history.”
The Bishop moved forward with prayers and responsive
readings with those that stood outside in the cool early
spring afternoon. He offered thanks to Father Geary for
the thought, the hard work and the prayers that were a part
of the work he did to make the expansion project come
about and to begin.
The Bishop then took a container of holy water with a
scepter and doused the ground as he said a prayer. With
that, six men including Bishop Malloy, Mr. Linkenheld
and Father Geary and others manned shovels marked
“Rockford Structures” and overturned the shovels of dirt.
Work outside has also been underway with grass and
shrubs that were on the west side of the church having
already been removed. There is a slight depression in the
ground where the footings for the addition will be laid to
anchor the addition.
With the turning of the dirt the formal ceremony of
the groundbreaking was finished. Perhaps as many
as 50 or more people attended and witnessed the
ceremony. Members of the Knights of Columbus served
as a ceremonial honor guard for the event with their full
uniforms as they stood in front of the church.
With the ceremony finished those present were invited
to walk through the church to see what work had been
done. Father Geary said that, over the ensuing months as
the construction is underway regular Sunday Masses are
being held in the gymnasium on the church campus. It
is presumed that the services will continue there until the
construction and expansion is finished according to the
Parish’s target date of Thanksgiving Day, 2014.

Making Up For
Lost Time
The White Rabbit in the Lewis Carroll classic, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland started all of this. It was
the White Rabbit donned in his waistcoat holding a pocket watch who met Alice at the rabbit hole and led her
into a new world. The White Rabbits was seen muttering to himself “Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late,”
but Carroll never made it clear for what the Rabbit was late.
Illinois municipalities and Belvidere leaders resemble the White Rabbit regarding the condition of the city
police and fire worker pension funds. Belvidere is spending a lot of property tax revenue to make up for lost
time as city leaders scurry about eying their pocket watches muttering, “Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!”
One reason why there is of such concern is because a clock is ticking. The ticking clock relates to policy
initiated decades ago that allowed the governor and state leaders in the General Assembly to underpay state
worker pension accounts. With the state underpaying their pension obligations it was soon available for
municipalities to follow suit. Legislation passed in 2010 mandated that by 2040, the state and all municipalities
must have pension plans for workers funded to 90 percent. This is why the clock is ticking.
The result of this ticking clock is witnessed in Belvidere as the city is allocating funding to make up for
lost time in funding these plans. For example, in Belvidere, if the proposed city budget for Fiscal Year 2015
is approved, the city will allocate $890,000 to fund the police pension plan and $960,000 to fund the fire
department pension plan.
A bit of history is needed to understand how municipalities fell into the abyss. According to a report,
“Fiscal Focus, Illinois State Pension Systems: A Challenging Position,” prepared by Illinois comptroller, Judy
Baar Topinka, the need to play catch up with pension payments dates back to 1981. She wrote that a funding
problem for pensions were aggravated by a change in policy.
“Up until 1981, the budgetary policy for funding pensions was to have employees’ contributions and
investment income dedicated to building a reserve for future payments,” she wrote. However, she added, “That
policy was abandoned in Fiscal year 1982 during a period of fiscal stress. As a result, the state contributions
declined sharply in fiscal years 1982 and 1983 and increased modestly through fiscal year 1995.”
Because the state was underfunding pensions, the policy was adopted by municipalities, including Belvidere.
Funding that should have gone to pensions went elsewhere and into other areas for other uses. Yes, this money
that should have funded pensions from the municipality was used for other purposes and it is likely that prior
executives and prior collections of city aldermen, if questioned might willingly cite a wide variety of public
programs that they might claim went for the collective public good.
The real problem for Belvidere, Belvidere taxpayers and Belvidere residents is that in Fiscal Year 2015 the
city will send in excess of $1,850,000 to fund pension plans. Part of that amount provides current funding and
part of the check is paid to make up for lost time. This $1,850,000 cannot be used to maintain the Main Street
or the State Street Bridge. That money can also not be used to fund the second phase of the Columbia Avenue
project or to improve other infrastructure needs, or to fund a renovation of the Leath Building or to initiate a
capital improvement plan that the mayor has said is a vital element of his platform.
Every municipality and Belvidere receives a finite amount of revenue every year. Aldermen debate how that
revenue will be spent and the city cannot create new revenue unless the city engages some very creative ideas
to move the city in a direction that has not been explored or even imagined. The equalized assessed valuation
of real property in Belvidere, according the administrators and advisors of Belvidere School District #100, will
not improve, appreciably, until 2024 or sometime later.
That is a long time and there are many years remaining until 2040 when state law requires that Belvidere
must have police and fire pension funded to a 90 percent level. Though the city is making progress toward that
goal, there are years of “catching-up” ahead to avoid penalties that the state will assess for noncompliance.
In addition to the annual catch-up contribution, the city also must hire an actuarial firm to set the scope of
the contribution and how much more space remains to be filled before the city reaches 90 percent funding. For
years to come the city must continue to carve out approximately one month of expenses to play catch-up with
the police and fire pensions.
Some local taxpayers will lament, “Who’s responsible for this policy?” The parties responsible retired
long ago dating back to the 1980s when inflation ran at or about 13 percent, unemployment was at or above
10 percent, the computer age was becoming entrenched in business and some homes had their own desktop
computer.
It is difficult to remember those days but the personality of that age imagined real estate values would
continue to inflate at a 5 to 7 percent rate forever. However, in 2014 municipalities are just now emerging from
the long cold winter that many believe was the second-coming of the “Great Depression.”
Many more years lay ahead with large pension contributions being removed from annual budgets in
Belvidere and little can be done about that. However, this situation should move city elected officials to move
with determination to calculate how employment can be improved here where the rate is the highest in the state.
Instead of worrying if funds are “earmarked” or not a wiser approach would be to focus on how to improve the
local economy.
It remains uncertain if the current collection of elected officials in the city and county has the creativity, the
political willingness and the imagination to analyze the situation and to make needed changes. There is no
reason why this area should have such a high unemployment rate and also, there is no reason why no one is
offering any ideas or solutions.
We may soon see city aldermen dressed in waistcoats carrying pocket watches as they scurry about reciting,
“Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late.” However, a far better approach would be to resolve this pension
situation as soon as possible so that taxpayers and residents may benefit to a broader extent from the tax revenue
that they willingly give to the city every year.

The good samaritan has come forth and identified
himself; he is Mr. Wally Picco. You may have seen
him around town: in the warm and hot months he
seals the surface of parking lots and driveways, and
in the cold and snowy months he plows snow off
many of those same surfaces. Once again, Mr. Picco,
Thank You.
Thank you also Mr. Dave Larson, for publishing
my letter in your estimable Journal and enabling me
to thank the man who has set an example for the rest
of us.

2nd Annual
Celebration,
“Bucs Thundering
Towards a Cure”
By Lisa Rodgers
Who is St. Baldrick’s? The name is neither a Catholic
Saint nor a person. In fact, the name is a play on the words
“Bald” and “St. Patrick’s Day.”
“On July 4, 1999, Tim Kenny issued a challenge to
colleagues John Bender and Enda McDonnell: How will
you give back in return for your own good fortune in
business? Enda’s thick head of hair gives John the big
idea-shave their heads for donations to raise funds for kids
with cancer.”
On March 17, 2000, “The annual reinsurance industry’s
St. Patrick’s Day Party, held at Jim Brady’s pub in
Manhattan, became the first St. Baldrick’s event. The goal
of shaving 17 heads and raising $17,000 turns into 19 bald
heads and $104,000 donated to fund the research of the
Children’s Oncology Group.
In 2004 Founders make the leap—the St. Baldrick’s
Foundation is created to maximize this volunteer–driven
effort. The priorities: spending as little as possible to raise
each dollar, and making sure every donation goes to the
best research to find cures for kids fighting cancer. And
by 2012, St. Baldrick’s volunteers raise more than $30
million.” www.stbaldricks.org
On Sunday, May 4, the 2nd Annual “Bucs Thundering
Towards a Cure,” 5K Walk/Run will be held from 11 a.m.
until 12:30 p.m. at the Boone County Fair Grounds. That
will be followed by the St. Baldrick’s Head-Shaving Event
& Silent Auction from 12 p.m. until 3 p.m. The day will
be filled with colorful fun and head-shaving craziness to
benefit the St. Baldrick’s Foundation for Childhood Cancer
Research.
Brady DeNio is a teacher at Belvidere High School and
the event organizer. He was asked why he started the 5K
event. “It actually started with the St. Baldrick’s event.
My parents started their first St. Baldrick’s head shaving
event to raise funds in memory of one of their friend’s
children. Their first year they raised about $4,000 but they
thought they could do more. This year they will raise over
$150,000 for a grand total of over $300,000 in 8 years.”
He added, “Then I decided to do an event and I had a
group of students who wanted to help, but the girls didn’t
want to shave their heads. They wanted to have fun while
raising money so they suggested a Color Run. So we did
it, we rented the Boone County Fairgrounds, made our own
corn starch and had an amazing event last year. There were
over 700 runners. The more people that come and see what
people are willing to sacrifice for something they believe
in, the more funds we will raise for childhood cancer
research.”
He also said, “Our events have a profound effect on
people. The Color Run is the most fun you will have
running a 5K. But I would have to say the St. Baldrick’s
event is what people are talking about. Last year five senior
girls shaved their heads for childhood cancer research and
raised over $3,000.”

Illinois schools test Common
Core
By Benjamin Yount | Illinois Watchdog
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. — It’s test week in Illinois, but students shouldn’t worry much. The
test doesn’t count, and parents and teachers will never see the results.
Nearly 680 school districts, 1,900 schools, and 125,000 students across Illinois will take
the PARCC practice exam, the first test for Common Core.
It’s sort of a test for a test. “Feedback from Illinois schools will make this a more accurate
and meaningful assessment system that will give families and educators information they
can put to use,” Illinois State Superintendent Chris Koch said in a statement announcing
the test.
PARCC — the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers — is
the Common Core test for 16 states, including Illinois and the District of Columbia. Other
states will take the SBAC — Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium — exam.
Alaska, Nebraska, Texas and Virginia opted out of the Common Core State Standards.
Minnesota adopted the English standards, but not the math.
The exams, one in March and the other in May, are expected to expose weaknesses,
of which there are many. “There isn’t a textbook written that has Common Core in it,”
McLean County Unit 5 Superintendent Gary Niehaus told Illinois Watchdog. “Common
Core is that new. It takes 18 to 24 months to produce a text book.”
Most won’t even be taking the PARCC test on the Common Core Standards properly.
“It is designed to be an online test, not just pencil and paper,” ISBE spokeswoman Mary
Fergus said “(There is) more writing, really reflecting what Common Core demands in the
process.” But Fergus figures just 50 percent of Illinois’ schools can handle an online test.
The others will take an exam designed to be a real-time digital test, but with a pencil and
paper. “What we really need is three years of pencil and paper before we got to online,”
said Niehaus. He said ISBE is generous in its testing estimates. “There are 25 percent of
schools in the state of Illinois capable of doing it online.” Unit 5 has enough computers and
sufficient broadband capability to support online testing. In addition to being slower, the
pencil and paper tests are also more expensive.
ISBE numbers show the online PARCC test for Common Core costs $29.50 per student;
the pencil and paper test, $33 per student. Every Illinois student grades three through 11
will have to take the PARCC test next year. Critics say if the state cannot pay for the test
and the new computers and Internet, local schools will ask for tax increases. Joy Pullman, a
Common Core expert and editor for School Reform News and the Heartland Institute, said
those looming tax hikes are where local problems with Common Core become national
worries about centralized control.
“School districts around the country are basically having their ability to do their jobs …
they can’t do it anymore because there is somebody else coming in and saying, ‘We’re in
charge, now. Forget who elected you to make decisions about tax dollars, we’ll make those
decisions on your behalf’,” Pullman said.

Did you know?
from the North Boone Wind Farm Team
Wind energy keeping costs down and
heaters on during extreme cold
Did you know… that while recent extreme cold spells have driven electricity and
natural gas prices to soar as a result of increased demand, wind energy has helped to keep
homes heated and consumer energy bills down as the cold temperatures have also brought with
them high winds. According to the American Wind Energy Association, “During times of peak
demand in late January, wind energy was saving $1.5 to $2 million per hour as it supplied 3,500
MW of electricity to PJM (the power grid agency for 13 Mid-Atlantic and Midwestern states),”
and, “This strong supply of electricity during peak demand also helps ease power costs overall,
resulting in greater cost savings to consumers. (*)
Did you know… that wind energy helped to pick up the slack after traditional power
sources fell off the grid in several parts of the U.S., further proving the importance of having a
diverse energy mix? (**) Last month in Texas, “Sufficient generation and higher wind output
from West Texas wind farms boosted the state’s electric supply” (^) and “the more than 2,000
megawatts of wind output…was the critical difference keeping heaters running as the grid
operator struggled with numerous outages at conventional power plants.” (&) In California on
Feb. 6, when a statewide emergency natural gas shortage was called, “Altogether, renewables
generated nearly 15% of total consumption on 6 February” while “Wind energy provided nearly
half of all renewable generation during the 24-hour period….” (**)
Did you know… that Pat Pope, president and CEO of Nebraska Public Power District
stated, “…the wind also worked in our favor yesterday, contributing more than 216 megawatts
for NPPD during the time of peak demand.” And further away in Ireland, where the increase in
wind energy has led to a decreased reliance on natural gas, “The substantial contribution of
wind energy helped reduce the monthly average wholesale electricity price by 5 percent,” said
John Heffernan of Bord Gais Energy, a leading energy provider in Ireland. (*)

School Bonds
Explained
By James Middleton
Even those that understand the elements of school bond
funding are at times confused by policy regarding the
management of bonds that a school district sold to fund
the construction of a building. However, though there are
differences between obtaining a mortgage to buy a house
and funding school construction with bonds, there are also
similarities.
Belvidere School District #100 passed through a period
of significant growth from 2004 through 2007. During
that period a middle school, an elementary school and a
high school were all built. Two of those buildings were
built after a referenda were given to the voters for their
approval to allow the district to exercise their bonding
authority to create and sell bonds to fund construction.
The elementary school was built without a referendum but
bonding authority was used to erect that building, the Seth
Whitman Elementary School.
However, over the next few years District #100 has a
number of bonds that are coming due for final payment.
However, the district, by 2019, must amass in excess of $19
million to pay for those bonds that were sold. These and
others are coming due and the district must now develop a
strategy to allow for some of those bonds to be paid out and
for some to be refunded and advanced for a few years into
the future before they would have their final payment due.
Administrators and members of the Belvidere School
District #100 Board of Education are moving through a
period to determine the best direction to pursue. School
bonds that are sold are tax free municipal bonds, in most
instances. The principal is protected because of the taxing
ability of a school district. Default on school bonds can
be avoided either by refunding those bonds and extending
the repayment term or by raising property taxes to pay off
the bonds.
A Monday business services meeting of the school board
occurred with District #100 finance manager Greg Brown,
explaining what the administration has been thinking
regarding how to manage those bonds due for payment.
He presented a PowerPoint program that referred the seven
regular issues of bonds that remain outstanding.
He said that five of those issues were for original
construction and one was a debt certificate that was used
for the conversion of the bus garage in 2008. Another
was for debt service for life safety matters associated with
Washington School that was issued in 2009. Finally, the
district also owed for the bond refunding that occurred in
2011 and 2013.
Mr. Brown added, “The district abated real estate taxes
with the levy in 2012 and December of 2013 that reduced
A Phone Book By Any Other Name . . . Is Not LOCAL!
Published by the Boone County Journal
the tax collection by almost $6.8 million.” The anticipated
check from the State of Illinois for collections of the school
facility sales tax should be received soon. He said, “That
amount should be about $2.3 million annualized.”
Mr. Brown reported that the refunding that has been
done to date would keep the bond and interest tax
increases, essentially, at a lower rate through Fiscal Year
2015. However, “Large bond and interest tax increases
are needed by Fiscal Year 2016 and beyond if debt
management strategies other than the sales tax abatement
are not initiated.” He also said that the bond and interest
levy will need to increase from approximately $6.8 million
in Fiscal year 2015 to $9.15 million in Fiscal Year 2016
and to $13.25 million in Fiscal Year 2017.
It is expected by district administrators that the bond and
interest levy to manage the outstanding bonds would
remain high through 2024.
Mr. Brown then referenced the bond issue of May 1, 2005
that contains $18.23 million in bonds. He said, “This issue
has a call provision and the first call date is January 1, 2015.”
He added that the entire issue does not need to be called
and partial redemptions are allowed. He also said that the
call feature provided the district with the opportunity to
consider a more permanent debt management solution than
the annual current refunding activities.
Mr. Brown went on to say that the Board must decide if a
partial call or payment or refunding of the May 1 issue is
a direction to pursue. If the Board would choose this path
then administrators in the district would need to consider
in detail provision in the federal Dodd-Frank Act. “That
Act is expected to be finalized by July 1 of this year,” Mr.
Brown said.
One element of the Act provided for a difference to exist
in the work of financial advisors and underwriters. Mr.
Brown said, “They can work in both areas but a financial
advisor must work as an advisor and an underwriter must
also only work as an underwriter.” He said that DoddFrank seeks to differentiate between both parties.
Mr. Brown estimated that the cost of working with a
financial advisor could amount to from 10 to 50 basis points
added to the cost of the bonds to coordinate the process.
He also said that an underwriter could add a cost of from
50 to 100 basis points to the refunding offering. He added,
“The district has never worked with a financial advisor
but that professional would tend to look at the bonds
outstanding and set a long-term strategy for management.”
The President of the Board of Education, Mike Rathbun
asked Mr. Brown, “So then do you want for us to give you
direction, in the May meeting?” Mr. Brown answered
“Yes.”
Mr. Rathbun followed, “I like the idea of an outside party
looking at this.”
No action was taken by the committee but for the question
to be considered further in the May school board meeting.
The question that board members should consider is the
best interests of the district and the community are met by
hiring a financial advisor to consult on the bond situation in
the district or to consult with an underwriter.
No direction was discernable from what the board members
said during Mr. Brown’s PowerPoint presentation.
