WHEREAS, pursuant to notice published as required by law, the City Council has held a
public meeting and hearing upon the proposal to institute proceedings for the authorization of a
Loan and Disbursement Agreement by and between the City and the Iowa Finance Authority and
the issuance to the Iowa Finance Authority of not to exceed $9,000,000 Water Revenue Capital

Agreement, in order to provide funds to pay the costs of acquisition, construction, reconstruction,
extending, remodeling, improving, repairing and equipping all or part of the Municipal Water
Utility, including those costs associated with the CIWW Asset Transfer project, and has
considered the extent of objections received from residents or property owners as to the proposed
issuance of Notes; and accordingly the following action is now considered to be in the best
interests of the City and residents thereof.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF WAUKEE, STATE OF IOWA:
Section 1.That this Council does hereby institute proceedings and take additional action
for the authorization of a Loan and Disbursement Agreement by and between the City and the
Iowa Finance Authority and the issuance to the Iowa Finance Authority in the manner required
by law of not to exceed $9,000,000 Water Revenue Capital Loan Notes, for the foregoing
purposes.
Section 2.That this Council does hereby consent to the terms and conditions of the
DWSRF Loan Program, which terms and conditions and the disclosures provided with respect
thereto are hereby acknowledged, accepted and approved.
Section 3.This Resolution shall serve as a declaration of official intent under Treasury
Regulation 1.150-2 and shall be maintained on file as a public record of such intent. It is
reasonably expected that the water fund moneys may be advanced from time to time for capital
expenditures which are to be paid from the proceeds of the above Notes. The amounts so
advanced shall be reimbursed from the proceeds of the Notes not later than eighteen months after
the initial payment of the capital expenditures or eighteen months after the property is placed in
service. Such advancements shall not exceed the amount authorized in this Resolution unless the
same are for preliminary expenditures or unless another declaration of intention is adopted.
Section 4.That the Clerk, with the assistance of bond counsel, is hereby authorized and
directed to proceed with the preparation of such documents and proceedings as shall be
necessary to authorize the City’s participation in the DWSRF Loan Program, to select a suitable
date for final Council authorization of the required Loan and Disbursement Agreement and
issuance of the Note to evidence the City’s obligations thereunder, and to take such other actions
as the Council shall deem necessary to permit the completion of a loan on a basis favorable to the
City and acceptable to this Council.
