cohesive project. The project is funded by Contribution in Aid from local developments and

collected. Phase 1 from International Boulevard to County Road 52 was completed in the

10. Second Reading of Ordinance No, 050, 2003, Appropriating Unanticivated Revenue in the
Golf Fund for the Purpose of Funding Capital Improvements.
In 1999 and 2001 the City executed lease transactions to provide funding for capital
improvements at the City's three golf courses. Due to unexpected circumstances beyond the
control of the City, several of the improvements were delayed. During the delay, the
proceeds from the two transactions were invested at competitive interest rates. The
investments earned greater amounts of interest than originally anticipated. In September,
2002, Council passed an Ordinance appropriating $165,000, a portion of the extra interest
earned to complete several additional capital improvements at golf courses. This ordinance,
which was unanimously adopted on First Reading on April 1, 2003, appropriates the
remaining interest earnings to close-out the funding.
