HOW THE PROJECTS WOULD BE FUNDED
Police Department/Fire Station 6
INFORMATIONAL BRIEFING
Source Role in the proposed plan
Government Building Facilities Fees and
Fire Impact Fees
Pay eligible costs attributable to growth
Lease revenue bond proceeds Finance the remaining construction costs 08 City expects to use certain earmarked, but not pledged, revenues (Measure Q) towad Lease Payments supporting debt service
Project costs, contributions, and financing amounts will be presented on 10/20/26 WHY USE BOND FINANCING? AND WHAT DOES THIS
MEAN?
INFORMATIONAL BRIEFING
09 A bond is like a loan.
No voter approval required for Lease Revenue
bonds.
Impact fees and bond proceeds will fund the
projects upfront. Accelerating projects avoids
cost escalation
Repayment over time spreads the cost of longlived facilities across years of use.
Borrowing adds interest and financing costs,
with a continuing City budget obligation which
will be monitored and updated during the
budget process.
LEASE REVENUE BONDS: THE BASICS
HOW IT WOULD WORK
INFORMATIONAL BRIEFING
10 City expects to use certain earmarked, but not pledged revenues (Measure Q) towad Lease Payments supporting debt service The Manteca Financing Authority would issue
bonds to investors.
Bond proceeds would help pay construction
costs.
The City would lease property and make
scheduled lease payments from any legally
available General Funds.
Those payments would repay bond principal and
interest.

INFORMATIONAL BRIEFING
11 Council will review financing terms before

and appropriation in the City’s budget.

public budgeting and citizen oversight.
