The Board of Supervisors of Frederick County, Virginia recently approved the following two public school projects: Middletown Elementary School Expansion and the Fourth High School (the "Approved School Projects"). B. Frederick County, Virginia (the "County") intends (i) to undertake the Approved School Projects, (ii) to pay costs of the Approved School Projects from available funds of the County before the issuance or incurrence of bonds or other obligations or debt (the "Bonds") to finance the Approved School Projects, and (iii) to reimburse itself for such original expenditures (the "Expenditures") from the proceeds of the Bonds. C. Bond counsel has advised the County that Treas. Regs. § 1.150-2 requires the County to adopt a resolution in the form set forth below to preserve the County's ability to use portions of the proceeds of the County's upcoming issues of Bonds to reimburse itself for the Expenditures. After careful consideration and to further the public purposes for which the County was created, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF FREDERICK COUNTY, VIRGINIA THAT: 1. The County intends to finance the Approved School Projects through the issuance of one or more series of Bonds. The principal amount of the Bonds attributable to the Approved School Projects is not expected to exceed $174,000,000. 1.150-2.2. This Resolution represents a declaration of "off cial intent" under Treas. Regs. § 3. Before the issuance or incurrence of the Bonds, the County expects to pay some or all of the costs of the Approved School Projects from its available funds. 4. On the date each Expenditure is paid, it will be a capital expenditure (or would be with a proper election) under general federal income tax principles or will otherwise comply with the requirements of Treas. Regs. § 1.150-2(d)(3). 5. The County reasonably expects to reimburse the Expenditures made before the issuance of the Bonds to finance the Approved School Projects from the proceeds of the Bonds and the adoption of this Resolution is consistent with the budgetary and financial circumstances of the County. 6.
