SB0004 - General Obligation Bond Authorization

State Impact:
This legislation authorizes issuance of General Obligation bonds, which are backed by the full faith and credit of the state, for construction of a facility at Utah State University. Language in the bill makes bond issuance contingent on receipt of federal funds. Assuming all of the bonds are issued in the first year, with a standard six year repayment period and flattened payments at today's interest rates, debt service will require approximately $8,078,000 per year with first year interest cost of $688,500. Actual debt service will vary according to the timing of federal funds and the structure of the bonds.
