The Board of County Commissioners of Lorain County, Ohio, met in regular session at 9:30 o’clock a.m. on the 19th day of December, 2018, at 226 Middle Avenue, Elyria, Ohio with the following members present:

Commissioner Kalo moved the adoption of the following resolution:

RESOLUTION NO. 18-824

RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF NOT TO EXCEED $7,920,000 COURTHOUSE RENOVATION BONDS, OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF THE COUNTY OF LORAIN, OHIO

WHEREAS, the County Auditor, as fiscal officer of the County, has heretofore estimated that the life of the improvements and assets funded with the proceeds of the $7,920,000 Courthouse Renovation Bonds, is at least five (5) years, and certified that the maximum maturity of the bonds issued therefor is not less than twenty-five (25) years.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Lorain County, Ohio:

Page 15: of the Boar… · Web vie

SECTION 1. That it is necessary to issue and sell bonds of this County in the principal sum of not to exceed $7,920,000 (the “Bonds”) for the purpose of refunding certain outstanding general obligation and sales tax receipts bond anticipation notes issued for the purpose of paying the costs of renovating the County Courthouse, and providing additional funds for the project, together with all appurtenances thereto; under authority of and pursuant to the general laws of the State of Ohio, particularly Chapter 133 of the Ohio Revised Code.

SECTION 2. That the Bonds shall be issued for the purpose aforesaid. The Bonds shall (i) be issued in a principal amount as determined by the County Administrator or Budget Director, but not to exceed the amount set forth above, for the purpose aforesaid, (ii) be dated their date of issuance, (iii) be numbered from R-1 upwards in order of issuance, (iv) be of the denominations of $5,000 and any integral multiple thereof, provided that each Bond shall be of a single maturity, (v) mature or be subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption on the dates and in the amounts determined by the County Administrator or the Budget Director, and (vi) bear interest payable semiannually on the first day of June and the first day of December of each year commencing June 1, 2019 or as otherwise provided on the face thereof, at the rate or rates per annum determined by the County Administrator or the Budget Director, provided that the net interest cost payable by the County over the life of the Bonds shall not exceed six percent (6%) per annum. Determinations required to be made by the County Administrator or the Budget Director pursuant to this resolution shall be stated in a Bond Purchase Agreement for the Bonds (the “Bond Purchase Agreement”) which the County Administrator or the Budget Director are hereby authorized to sign. The Bond proceeds may be used to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds and up to twenty-four (24) months of capitalized interest on the Bonds and notes issued in anticipation thereof.

Resolution No. 18-824 cont. December 19, 2018

The Bonds may be subject to redemption prior to maturity at the option of the County upon such terms, at such times and at such price or prices (but in any case, not greater than 102% of the principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed plus accrued interest to the redemption date), as may be determined by the County Administrator or the Budget Director.

If fewer than all of the outstanding Bonds of a single maturity are called for redemption, the selection of Bonds to be redeemed, or portions thereof in amounts of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof, shall be made by lot by the Paying Agent and Registrar (as hereinafter defined) in any manner which the Paying Agent and Registrar may determine. In the case of a partial redemption of Bonds when Bonds of denominations greater than $5,000 are then outstanding, each $5,000 unit of face value of principal thereof shall be treated as though it were a separate Bond of the denomination of $5,000. If one or more, but not all, of such $5,000 units of face value represented by a Bond are to be called for redemption, then upon notice of redemption of a $5,000 unit or units, the registered holder of that Bond shall surrender the Bond to the Paying Agent and Registrar (a) for payment of the redemption price for the $5,000 unit or units of face value called for redemption (including without limitation, the interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption and any premium), and (b) for issuance, without charge to the registered holder thereof, of a new Bond or Bonds of the same series, of any authorized denomination or denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unmatured and unredeemed portion of, and bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date as, the Bond surrendered.

The notice of call for redemption of Bonds shall identify (i) by designation, letters, numbers or other distinguishing marks, the Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed, (ii) the redemption price to be paid, (iii) the date fixed for redemption, and (iv) the place or places where the amounts due upon redemption are payable. The notice shall be given by the Paying Agent and Registrar on behalf of the County by mailing a copy of the redemption notice by first class mail at least 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, to the registered holder of each Bond subject to redemption in whole or in part at such registered holder’s address shown on the Bond registration records on the fifteenth day preceding that mailing. Failure to receive notice by mailing or any defect in that notice regarding any Bond, however, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Bond. Notice having been mailed in the manner provided above, the Bonds and portions thereof called for redemption shall become due and payable on the redemption date and on such redemption date, interest on such Bonds or portions thereof so called shall cease to accrue; and upon presentation and surrender of such Bonds or portions thereof at the place or places specified in that notice, such Bonds or portions thereof shall be paid at the redemption price, including interest accrued to the redemption date.

Pending preparation of definitive Bonds, any Bonds may be initially delivered in temporary form exchangeable for definitive Bonds when such definitive Bonds are ready for delivery. The temporary Bonds may be printed, lithographed or typewritten and may contain such reference to any of the provisions of this resolution as may be appropriate. Every temporary Bond shall be executed by the Paying Agent and Registrar upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner as definitive Bonds. If the Paying Agent and Registrar delivers temporary Bonds, it shall execute and furnish definitive Bonds at the earliest practicable time, and thereupon, the temporary Bonds shall be surrendered for cancellation at the principal office of the Paying Agent and Registrar, and the Paying Agent and Registrar shall deliver in exchange for such temporary Bonds an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Bonds. Until so exchanged, the temporary Bonds shall be entitled to the same benefits under this resolution as definitive Bonds delivered pursuant hereto.

The Bonds shall be designated “Courthouse Renovation Bonds” and may have additional designations.It is hereby determined by this Board of County Commissioners that the issuance of the Bonds provided herein, including without

limitation, the redemption provisions set forth above, are in the best interests of the County.

SECTION 3. That the Bonds shall express upon their faces the purpose for which they are issued and that they are issued in pursuance of this resolution. The Bonds shall be in fully registered form without coupons, shall bear the signatures of at least two members of this Board of County Commissioners and of the County Auditor, provided that any or all such signatures may be facsimile signatures, may bear the seal of such County Auditor or a facsimile thereof, and shall bear the manual authenticating signature of an authorized representative of The Huntington National Bank, Cleveland, Ohio to serve as the paying agent, registrar and transfer agent (the “Paying Agent and Registrar”) for the Bonds. The principal amount of each Bond shall be payable at the principal office of the Paying Agent and the Registrar and interest thereon shall be made on each interest payment date to the person whose name appears on the record date (May 15 and November 15 for June 1 and December 1 interest, respectively) on the Bond registration records as the registered holder thereof, by check or draft mailed to such registered holder at his address as it appears on such registration records.

The Bonds shall be transferable by the registered holder thereof in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing at the principal office of the Paying Agent and Registrar upon presentation and surrender thereof to the Paying Agent and Registrar. The County and the Paying Agent and Registrar shall not be required to transfer any Bond during the 15-day period preceding any interest payment date or preceding any selection of Bonds to be redeemed, or after such Bond has been selected for partial or complete redemption, and no such transfer shall be effective until entered upon the registration records maintained by the Paying Agent and Registrar. Upon such transfer, a new Bond or Bonds of authorized denominations of the same maturity and for the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor.

The County and the Paying Agent and Registrar may deem and treat the registered holders of the Bonds as the absolute owners thereof for all purposes, and neither the County nor the Paying Agent and Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

SECTION 4. That for the payment of the Bonds and the interest thereon, the full faith, credit, and revenue of the County are hereby irrevocably pledged, and for the purpose of providing the necessary funds to pay the interest on the Bonds promptly when and as the same falls due, and also to provide a fund sufficient to discharge the Bonds at maturity or upon mandatory sinking fund redemption, there shall be and is hereby levied on all the taxable property in the County within applicable limitations, in addition to all other taxes, a direct tax annually during the period the Bonds are to run in an amount sufficient to provide funds to pay interest upon the Bonds as and when the same falls due and also to provide a fund for the discharge of the principal of the Bonds at maturity or upon mandatory sinking fund redemption, which tax shall not be less than the interest and sinking fund tax required by Article XII, Section 11 of the Constitution of Ohio.

SECTION 6. That this Board of County Commissioners hereby covenants that it will restrict the use of the proceeds of the Bonds hereby authorized in such manner and to such extent, if any, as may be necessary after taking into account reasonable expectations at the time the debt is incurred, so that they will not constitute obligations the interest on which is subject to federal income taxation or “arbitrage bonds” under Sections 103(b)(2) and 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the regulations prescribed thereunder, including any expenditure requirements, investment limitations or rebate requirements. Without limiting the generally of the foregoing, this Board of County Commissioners represents and covenants that not more than 10% of the improvements financed with the proceeds of the Bonds shall be used directly or indirectly in the trade or business of any person that is not an “exempt person” within the meaning of the Code.

SECTION 7. That at least two members of this Board of County Commissioners, the County Auditor, the County Administrator or the Budget Director are separately hereby authorized, alone or with others, to prepare and distribute to prospective purchasers of the Bonds and other interested parties, a preliminary official statement with respect to the Bonds on behalf of this County, which shall be in substantially the form heretofore submitted to this Board of County Commissioners with such changes thereto as such officials may approve, and which shall be deemed final for purposes of Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15c2-12(b)(1) except for certain information excluded therefrom in accordance with such Rule and which will be provided in the final official statement.

The County hereby covenants and agrees that it will execute, comply with and carry out all of the provisions of a continuing disclosure certificate dated the date of issuance and delivery of the Bonds (the “Continuing Disclosure Certificate”) in connection with the issuance of the Bonds. Failure to comply with any such provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Certificate shall not constitute a default on the Bonds; however, any holder of the Bonds may take such action as may be necessary and appropriate, including seeking specific performance, to cause the County to comply with its obligations under this paragraph and the Continuing Disclosure Certificate.

SECTION 8. That at least two members of this Board of County Commissioners, the County Auditor, the County Administrator or the Budget Director are separately hereby authorized, alone or with others, to execute and deliver an agreement with the Paying Agent and Registrar for its services as paying agent, registrar and transfer agent for the Bonds in such form as such officer may approve, the execution thereof by such officer to be conclusive evidence of such authorization and approval, and an agreement with an escrow agent for a refunding of the Refunded Bonds.

SECTION 9. That for purposes of this Resolution, the following terms shall have the following meanings:“Book entry form” or “book entry system” means a form or system under which (i) the beneficial right to payment of principal of and

interest on the Bonds may be transferred only through a book entry, and (ii) physical Bond certificates in fully registered form are issued only to the Depository or its nominee as registered owner, with the Bonds “immobilized” to the custody of the Depository, and the book entry maintained by others than this County is the record that identifies the owners of beneficial interests in those Bonds and that principal and interest.

“Depository” means any securities depository that is a clearing agency under federal law operating and maintaining, together with its Participants or otherwise, a book entry system to record ownership of beneficial interests in Bonds or principal and interest, and to effect transfers of Bonds, in book entry form, and includes and means initially The Depository Trust Company (a limited purpose trust company), New York, New York.

“Participant” means any participant contracting with a Depository under a book entry system and includes security brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies, and clearing corporations.

All or any portion of the Bonds may be initially issued to a Depository for use in a book entry system, and the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Bonds, notwithstanding any other provision of this Resolution. If and as long as a book entry system is utilized with respect to any of such Bonds: (i) there shall be a single Bond of each maturity; (ii) those Bonds shall be registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee, as registered owner, and immobilized in the custody of the Depository; (iii) the beneficial owners of Bonds in book entry form shall have no right to receive Bonds in the form of physical securities or certificates; (iv) ownership of beneficial interests in any Bonds in book entry form shall be shown by book entry on the system maintained and operated by the Depository and its Participants, and transfers of the ownership of beneficial interests shall be made only by book entry by the Depository and its Participants; and (v) the Bonds as such shall not be transferable or exchangeable, except for transfer to another Depository or to another nominee of a Depository, without further action by this County. Debt service charges on Bonds in book entry form registered in the name of a Depository or its nominee shall be payable in the manner provided in this County’s agreement with the Depository to the Depository or its authorized representative (i) in the case of interest, on each interest payment date, and (ii) in all other cases, upon presentation and surrender of Bonds as provided in this Resolution.

The Paying Agent and Registrar may, with the approval of this County, enter into an agreement with the beneficial owner or registered owner of any Bond in the custody of a Depository providing for making all payments to that owner of principal and interest on that Bond or any portion thereof (other than any payment of the entire unpaid principal amount thereof) at a place and in a manner (including wire transfer of federal funds) other than as provided in this Resolution, without prior presentation or surrender of the Bond, upon any conditions which shall be

Page 17: of the Boar… · Web vie

satisfactory to the Paying Agent and Registrar and to this County. That payment in any event shall be made to the person who is the registered owner of that Bond on the date that principal is due, or, with respect to the payment of interest, as of the applicable date agreed upon as the case may be. The Paying Agent and Registrar shall furnish a copy of each of those agreements, certified to be correct by the Paying Agent and Registrar, to any other paying agents for the Bonds and to this County. Any payment of principal or interest pursuant to such an agreement shall constitute payment thereof pursuant to, and for all purposes of, this Resolution.

The County Administrator or the Budget Director are authorized and directed without further action of this Board of County Commissioners to execute, acknowledge and deliver, in the name of and on behalf of this County, a blanket letter agreement between this County and The Depository Trust Company, as Depository, to be delivered in connection with the issuance of the Bonds to the Depository for use in a book entry system, and to take all other actions the County Administrator or the Budget Director deems appropriate in issuing the Bonds under a book entry system.

If any Depository determines not to continue to act as Depository for the Bonds for use in a book entry system, this County and the Paying Agent and Registrar may attempt to establish a securities depository/book entry relationship with another qualified Depository under this Resolution. If this County and the Paying Agent and Registrar do not or are unable to do so, this County and the Paying Agent and Registrar, after the Paying Agent and Registrar has made provision for notification of the beneficial owners by the then Depository, shall permit withdrawal of the Bonds from the Depository and authenticate and deliver Bond certificates in fully registered form to the assigns of the Depository or its nominee, all at the cost and expense (including costs of printing definitive Bonds), if the event is not the result of action or inaction by this County or the Paying Agent and Registrar, of those persons requesting such issuance.

b.15 RESOLUTION NO. 18-825

The Board of County Commissioners of Lorain County, Ohio, met in regular session at 9:30 o’clock a.m. on the 19th day of December, 2018, at 226 Middle Avenue, Elyria, Ohio with the following members present:

Commissioner Kalo moved the adoption of the following resolution:

RESOLUTION NO. 18-825

RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF NOT TO EXCEED $2,930,000 SANITARY SEWER IMPROVEMENTS (REDFERN ROAD PROJECT) BONDS, OF THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF THE COUNTY OF LORAIN, OHIO

WHEREAS, the County Auditor, as fiscal officer of the County, has heretofore estimated that the life of the improvements and assets funded with the proceeds of the $2,930,000 Sanitary Sewer Improvements (Redfern Road Project) Bonds is at least five (5) years, and certified that the maximum maturity of the bonds issued therefor is not less than twenty (20) years.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of Lorain County, Ohio:

SECTION 1. That it is necessary to issue and sell bonds of this County in the principal sum of not to exceed $2,930,000 (the “Bonds”) for the purpose of refunding certain outstanding general obligation bond anticipation notes issued for the purpose of paying the costs of constructing and acquiring sanitary sewer system improvements, including sewer line, force main, lift station and other improvements, together with all necessary appurtenances, in anticipation of the levy and collection of special assessments, and paying costs of issuance of the Bonds; under authority of and pursuant to the general laws of the State of Ohio, particularly Chapter 133 of the Ohio Revised Code.

SECTION 2. That the Bonds shall be issued for the purpose aforesaid. The Bonds shall (i) be issued in a principal amount as determined by the County Administrator or the Budget Director, but not to exceed the amount set forth above, for the purpose aforesaid, (ii) be dated their date of issuance, (iii) be numbered from R-1 upwards in order of issuance, (iv) be of the denominations of $5,000 and any integral multiple thereof, provided that each Bond shall be of a single maturity, (v) mature or be subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption on the dates and in the amounts determined by the County Administrator or the Budget Director, and (vi) bear interest payable semiannually on the first day of June and the first day of December of each year commencing June 1, 2019 or as otherwise provided on the face thereof, at the rate or rates per annum determined by the County Administrator or the Budget Director, provided that the net interest cost payable by the County over the life

Page 18: of the Boar… · Web vie

of the Bonds shall not exceed six percent (6%) per annum. Determinations required to be made by the County Administrator or the Budget Director pursuant to this resolution shall be stated in a Bond Purchase Agreement for the Bonds (the “Bond Purchase Agreement”) which the County Administrator or the Budget Director are hereby authorized to sign. The Bond proceeds may be used to pay costs of issuance of the Bonds and capitalized interest on the Bonds and notes issued in anticipation thereof, to the extent permitted by law.

The Bonds may be subject to redemption prior to maturity at the option of the County upon such terms, at such times and at such price or prices (but in any case, not greater than 102% of the principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed plus accrued interest to the redemption date), as may be determined by the County Administrator or the Budget Director.

If fewer than all of the outstanding Bonds of a single maturity are called for redemption, the selection of Bonds to be redeemed, or portions thereof in amounts of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof, shall be made by lot by the Paying Agent and Registrar (as hereinafter defined) in any manner which the Paying Agent and Registrar may determine. In the case of a partial redemption of Bonds when Bonds of denominations greater than $5,000 are then outstanding, each $5,000 unit of face value of principal thereof shall be treated as though it were a separate Bond of the denomination of $5,000. If one or more, but not all, of such $5,000 units of face value represented by a Bond are to be called for redemption, then upon notice of redemption of a $5,000 unit or units, the registered holder of that Bond shall surrender the Bond to the Paying Agent and Registrar (a) for payment of the redemption price for the $5,000 unit or units of face value called for redemption (including without limitation, the interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption and any premium), and (b) for issuance, without charge to the registered holder thereof, of a new Bond or Bonds of the same series, of any authorized denomination or denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unmatured and unredeemed portion of, and bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date as, the Bond surrendered.

Resolution No. 18-825 cont. December 19, 2018

The notice of call for redemption of Bonds shall identify (i) by designation, letters, numbers or other distinguishing marks, the Bonds or portions thereof to be redeemed, (ii) the redemption price to be paid, (iii) the date fixed for redemption, and (iv) the place or places where the amounts due upon redemption are payable. The notice shall be given by the Paying Agent and Registrar on behalf of the County by mailing a copy of the redemption notice by first class mail at least 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, to the registered holder of each Bond subject to redemption in whole or in part at such registered holder’s address shown on the Bond registration records on the fifteenth day preceding that mailing. Failure to receive notice by mailing or any defect in that notice regarding any Bond, however, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Bond. Notice having been mailed in the manner provided above, the Bonds and portions thereof called for redemption shall become due and payable on the redemption date and on such redemption date, interest on such Bonds or portions thereof so called shall cease to accrue; and upon presentation and surrender of such Bonds or portions thereof at the place or places specified in that notice, such Bonds or portions thereof shall be paid at the redemption price, including interest accrued to the redemption date.

Pending preparation of definitive Bonds, any Bonds may be initially delivered in temporary form exchangeable for definitive Bonds when such definitive Bonds are ready for delivery. The temporary Bonds may be printed, lithographed or typewritten and may contain such reference to any of the provisions of this resolution as may be appropriate. Every temporary Bond shall be executed by the Paying Agent and Registrar upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner as definitive Bonds. If the Paying Agent and Registrar delivers temporary Bonds, it shall execute and furnish definitive Bonds at the earliest practicable time, and thereupon, the temporary Bonds shall be surrendered for cancellation at the principal office of the Paying Agent and Registrar, and the Paying Agent and Registrar shall deliver in exchange for such temporary Bonds an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Bonds. Until so exchanged, the temporary Bonds shall be entitled to the same benefits under this resolution as definitive Bonds delivered pursuant hereto.

The Bonds shall be designated “Sanitary Sewer Improvements (Redfern Road Project) Bonds” and may have additional designations.It is hereby determined by this Board of County Commissioners that the issuance of the Bonds provided herein, including without

limitation, the redemption provisions set forth above, are in the best interests of the County.

SECTION 3. That the Bonds shall express upon their faces the purpose for which they are issued and that they are issued in pursuance of this resolution. The Bonds shall be in fully registered form without coupons, shall bear the signatures of at least two members of this Board of County Commissioners and of the County Auditor, provided that any or all such signatures may be facsimile signatures, may bear the seal of such County Auditor or a facsimile thereof, and shall bear the manual authenticating signature of an authorized representative of The Huntington National Bank, Cleveland, Ohio to serve as the paying agent, registrar and transfer agent (the “Paying Agent and Registrar”) for the Bonds. The principal amount of each Bond shall be payable at the principal office of the Paying Agent and the Registrar and interest thereon shall be made on each interest payment date to the person whose name appears on the record date (May 15 and November 15 for June 1 and December 1 interest, respectively) on the Bond registration records as the registered holder thereof, by check or draft mailed to such registered holder at his address as it appears on such registration records.

The Bonds shall be transferable by the registered holder thereof in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing at the principal office of the Paying Agent and Registrar upon presentation and surrender thereof to the Paying Agent and Registrar. The County and the Paying Agent and Registrar shall not be required to transfer any Bond during the 15-day period preceding any interest payment date or preceding any selection of Bonds to be redeemed, or after such Bond has been selected for partial or complete redemption, and no such transfer shall be effective until entered upon the registration records maintained by the Paying Agent and Registrar. Upon such transfer, a new Bond or Bonds of authorized denominations of the same maturity and for the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor.

The County and the Paying Agent and Registrar may deem and treat the registered holders of the Bonds as the absolute owners thereof for all purposes, and neither the County nor the Paying Agent and Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

SECTION 4. That for the payment of the Bonds and the interest thereon, the full faith, credit, and revenue of the County are hereby irrevocably pledged, and for the purpose of providing the necessary funds to pay the interest on the Bonds promptly when and as the same falls due, and also to provide a fund sufficient to discharge the Bonds at maturity or upon mandatory sinking fund redemption, there shall be and is hereby levied on all the taxable property in the County within applicable limitations, in addition to all other taxes, a direct tax annually during the period the Bonds are to run in an amount sufficient to provide funds to pay interest upon the Bonds as and when the same falls due and also to provide a fund for the discharge of the principal of the Bonds at maturity or upon mandatory sinking fund redemption, which tax shall not be less than the interest and sinking fund tax required by Article XII, Section 11 of the Constitution of Ohio.

Said tax shall be and is hereby ordered computed, certified, levied and extended upon the tax duplicate and collected by the same officers, in the same manner and at the same time that taxes for general purposes for each of said years are certified, extended or collected. Said tax shall be placed before and in preference to all other items and for the full amount thereof. The Revenues to be applied to debt service on the Bonds and the funds derived from said tax levies hereby required shall be placed in a separate and distinct fund, which shall be irrevocably pledged for the payment of the interest on and the principal of the Bonds when and as the same shall fall due; provided, that in each year to the extent that moneys from other sources (the anticipated repayment revenue) are available for the payment of debt service on the Bonds and are appropriated for such purpose, the amount of such tax shall be reduced by the amount of such moneys so available and appropriated.

SECTION 5. That the Bonds shall be sold to Hilltop Securities Inc., Cincinnati, Ohio (the “Purchaser”) at not less than ninety-seven percent of par of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest to the date of delivery, as determined by the County Administrator or the Budget Director. The proceeds from the sale of the Bonds, except as any premium and accrued interest received, shall be deposited in an appropriate fund and used for the purpose aforesaid and for no other purpose and for which purpose such proceeds are hereby appropriated. Any premium and accrued interest received by the County from such sale shall be transferred to the bond retirement fund to be applied to the payment of the principal and interest of the Bonds in the manner provided by law.

SECTION 6. That this Board of County Commissioners hereby covenants that it will restrict the use of the proceeds of the Bonds hereby authorized in such manner and to such extent, if any, as may be necessary after taking into account reasonable expectations at the time the debt is incurred, so that they will not constitute obligations the interest on which is subject to federal income taxation or “arbitrage bonds” under Sections 103(b)(2) and 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the regulations prescribed thereunder, including any expenditure requirements, investment limitations or rebate requirements. Without limiting the generally of the foregoing, this Board of County Commissioners represents and covenants that not more than 10% of the improvements financed with the proceeds of the Bonds shall be used directly or indirectly in the trade or business of any person that is not an “exempt person” within the meaning of the Code. The County Auditor or any other officer having responsibility with respect to the issuance of the Bonds is authorized and directed to give an appropriate certificate on behalf of this County on the date of delivery of the Bonds for inclusion in the transcript of proceedings, setting forth the facts, estimates and circumstances and reasonable expectations pertaining to the use of the proceeds thereof and the provisions of said Sections 103(b)(2) and 148 and regulations thereunder.

SECTION 7. That at least two members of this Board of County Commissioners, the County Auditor, the County Administrator or the Budget Director are separately hereby authorized, alone or with others, to prepare and distribute to prospective purchasers of the Bonds and other interested parties, a preliminary official statement with respect to the Bonds on behalf of this County, which shall be in substantially the form heretofore submitted to this Board of County Commissioners with such changes thereto as such officials may approve, and which shall be deemed final for purposes of Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15c2-12(b)(1) except for certain information excluded therefrom in accordance with such Rule and which will be provided in the final official statement. At least two members of this Board of County Resolution No. 18-825 cont. December 19, 2018

The County hereby covenants and agrees that it will execute, comply with and carry out all of the provisions of a continuing disclosure certificate dated the date of issuance and delivery of the Bonds (the “Continuing Disclosure Certificate”) in connection with the issuance of the Bonds. Failure to comply with any such provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Certificate shall not constitute a default on the Bonds; however, any holder of the Bonds may take such action as may be necessary and appropriate, including seeking specific performance, to cause the County to comply with its obligations under this paragraph and the Continuing Disclosure Certificate.

SECTION 8. That at least two members of this Board of County Commissioners, the County Auditor, the County Administrator or the Budget Director are separately hereby authorized, alone or with others, to execute and deliver an agreement with the Paying Agent and Registrar for its services as paying agent, registrar and transfer agent for the Bonds in such form as such officer may approve, the execution thereof by such officer to be conclusive evidence of such authorization and approval, and an agreement with an escrow agent for a refunding of the Refunded Bonds.

SECTION 9. That for purposes of this Resolution, the following terms shall have the following meanings:“Book entry form” or “book entry system” means a form or system under which (i) the beneficial right to payment of principal of and

interest on the Bonds may be transferred only through a book entry, and (ii) physical Bond certificates in fully registered form are issued only to the Depository or its nominee as registered owner, with the Bonds “immobilized” to the custody of the Depository, and the book entry maintained by others than this County is the record that identifies the owners of beneficial interests in those Bonds and that principal and interest.

That payment in any event shall be made to the person who is the registered owner of that Bond on the date that principal is due, or, with respect to the payment of interest, as of the applicable date agreed upon as the case may be. The Paying Agent and Registrar shall furnish a copy of each of those agreements, certified to be correct by the Paying Agent and Registrar, to any other paying agents for the Bonds and to this County. Any payment of principal or interest pursuant to such an agreement shall constitute payment thereof pursuant to, and for all purposes of, this Resolution.

The County Administrator or the Budget Director are authorized and directed without further action of this Board of County Commissioners to execute, acknowledge and deliver, in the name of and on behalf of this County, a blanket letter agreement between this County and The Depository Trust Company, as Depository, to be delivered in connection with the issuance of the Bonds to the Depository for use in a book entry system, and to take all other actions the County Administrator or the Budget Director deems appropriate in issuing the Bonds under a book entry system.

If any Depository determines not to continue to act as Depository for the Bonds for use in a book entry system, this County and the Paying Agent and Registrar may attempt to establish a securities depository/book entry relationship with another qualified Depository under this Resolution. If this County and the Paying Agent and Registrar do not or are unable to do so, this County and the Paying Agent and Registrar, after the Paying Agent and Registrar has made provision for notification of the beneficial owners by the then Depository, shall permit withdrawal of the Bonds from the Depository and authenticate and deliver Bond certificates in fully registered form to the assigns of the Depository or its nominee, all at the cost and expense (including costs of printing definitive Bonds), if the event is not the result of action or inaction by this County or the Paying Agent and Registrar, of those persons requesting such issuance.

SECTION 1. That pursuant to the provisions of Section 133.30(B) of the Ohio Revised Code, the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds shall be consolidated into a single bond issue which shall be designated “Various Purpose General Obligation Bonds, Series 2019” (such consolidated bonds are hereinafter referred to as the “Consolidated Bonds”), together with any additional designations.

SECTION 2. That the Consolidated Bonds shall be issued under authority of the general laws of the State of Ohio, particularly Chapter 133 of the Ohio Revised Code. The Consolidated Bonds shall (i) be dated as of the same date as the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds (ii) be in a principal amount equal to the sum of the aggregate principal amounts of the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds, (iii) be numbered from R -1 upwards in order of issuance, (iv) be of the denominations of $5,000 and any integral multiple thereof, provided that each Consolidated Bond shall be of a single maturity, (v) mature or be subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption on each date the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds mature or are subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption in an amount for any given date equal to the sum of the maturity or mandatory sinking fund amounts for the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds for such date, and (vi) bear interest payable on each date interest on the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds is payable at a rate for each respective maturity equal to the rate of interest on the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds for such maturity.

The Consolidated Bonds may be subject to optional redemption on each date the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds are subject to optional redemption in an amount for any given date equal to the sum of the amounts of the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds being redeemed on such date upon the same terms, at the same redemption prices, on the same dates and in the same manner as the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds.

If fewer than all of the outstanding Consolidated Bonds of a single maturity are called for redemption, the selection of Consolidated Bonds to be redeemed, or portions thereof in amounts of $5,000 or any integral multiple thereof, shall be made by lot by the Paying Agent and Registrar (as hereinafter defined) in any manner which the Paying Agent and Registrar may determine.

Page 21: of the Boar… · Web vie

principal thereof shall be treated as though it were a separate Consolidated Bond of the denomination of $5,000. If one or more, but not all, of such $5,000 units of face value represented by a Consolidated Bond are to be called for redemption, then upon notice of redemption of a $5,000 unit or units, the registered holder of that Consolidated Bond shall surrender the Consolidated Bond to the Paying Agent and Registrar (a) for payment of the redemption price for the $5,000 unit or units of face value called for redemption (including without limitation, the interest accrued to the date fixed for redemption and any premium), and (b) for issuance, without charge to the registered holder thereof, of a new Consolidated Bond or Bonds of the same series, of any authorized denomination or denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unmatured and unredeemed portion of, and bearing interest at the same rate and maturing on the same date as, the Consolidated Bond surrendered.

The notice shall be given by the Paying Agent and Registrar on behalf of the County by mailing a copy of the redemption notice by first class mail at least 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, to the registered holder of each Consolidated Bond subject to redemption in whole or in part at such registered holder’s address shown on the Consolidated Bond registration records on the fifteenth day preceding that mailing. Failure to receive notice by mailing or any defect in that notice regarding any Consolidated Bond, however, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Consolidated Bond. Notice having been mailed in the manner provided above, the Consolidated Bonds and portions thereof called for redemption shall become due and payable on the redemption date and on such redemption date, interest on such Consolidated Bonds or portions thereof so called shall cease to accrue; and upon presentation and surrender of such Consolidated Bonds or portions thereof at the place or places specified in that notice, such Consolidated Bonds or portions thereof shall be paid at the redemption price, including interest accrued to the redemption date.Resolution No. 18-826 cont.

Pending preparation of definitive Consolidated Bonds, any Consolidated Bonds may be initially delivered in temporary form exchangeable for definitive Consolidated Bonds when such definitive Consolidated Bonds are ready for delivery. The temporary Consolidated Bonds may be printed, lithographed or typewritten and may contain such reference to any of the provisions of this resolution as may be appropriate. Every temporary Consolidated Bond shall be executed by the Paying Agent and Registrar upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner as definitive Consolidated Bonds. If the Paying Agent and Registrar delivers temporary Consolidated Bonds, it shall execute and furnish definitive Consolidated Bonds at the earliest practicable time, and thereupon, the temporary Consolidated Bonds shall be surrendered for cancellation at the principal office of the Paying Agent and Registrar, and the Paying Agent and Registrar shall deliver in exchange for such temporary Consolidated Bonds an equal aggregate principal amount of definitive Consolidated Bonds. Until so exchanged, the temporary Consolidated Bonds shall be entitled to the same benefits under this resolution as definitive Consolidated Bonds delivered pursuant hereto.

It is hereby determined by this Board that the issuance of the Consolidated Bonds provided herein, including without limitation, the redemption provisions set forth above, are in the best interests of the County and that the maturities and mandatory sinking fund and optional redemption provisions set forth above are consistent with the aggregate of the periodic separate maturities and mandatory sinking fund and optional redemption provisions of the respective resolutions authorizing the Series 2017 Bonds and the bond purchase agreement for the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds, which may be the same agreement for both issues of the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds.

SECTION 3. That the Consolidated Bonds shall express upon their faces a summary statement of purposes encompassing the purposes stated in the resolutions authorizing the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds and may state that they are issued in pursuance of this resolution. The Consolidated Bonds shall be in fully registered form without coupons, shall bear the signatures of at least two members of this Board and of the County Auditor, provided that any or all such signatures may be facsimile signatures, may bear the seal of such County Auditor or a facsimile thereof, and shall bear the manual authenticating signature of an authorized representative of The Huntington National Bank, Cleveland, Ohio (the “Paying Agent and Registrar”) for the Consolidated Bonds. The principal amount of each Consolidated Bond shall be payable at the principal office of the Paying Agent and the Registrar and interest thereon shall be made on each interest payment date to the person whose name appears on the record date (May 15 and November 15 for June 1 and December 1 interest, respectively) on the Consolidated Bond registration records as the registered holder thereof, by check or draft mailed to such registered holder at his address as it appears on such registration records.

The Consolidated Bonds shall be transferable by the registered holder thereof in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing at the principal office of the Paying Agent and Registrar upon presentation and surrender thereof to the Paying Agent and Registrar. The County and the Paying Agent and Registrar shall not be required to transfer any Consolidated Bond during the 15-day period preceding any interest payment date or preceding any selection of Consolidated Bonds to be redeemed, or after such Consolidated Bond has been selected for partial or complete redemption, and no such transfer shall be effective until entered upon the registration records maintained by the Paying Agent and Registrar. Upon such transfer, a new Consolidated Bond or Bonds of authorized denominations of the same maturity and for the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor.

The County and the Paying Agent and Registrar may deem and treat the registered holders of the Consolidated Bonds as the absolute owners thereof for all purposes, and neither the County nor the Paying Agent and Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

SECTION 4. That the provisions of the respective resolutions authorizing the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds relating to security and sources of payment, federal tax status of the Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds and of interest payable thereon, are hereby incorporated by reference into this resolution and the Consolidated Bonds.

(the “Purchaser”) at not less than 97% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date of delivery, as determined by the County Administrator or the Budget Director without further action of this Board pursuant to the Purchaser’s offer to purchase which such officer is hereby authorized to accept.

The proceeds from the sale of the Consolidated Bonds, except as any premium and accrued interest received, shall be apportioned, deposited and credited in accordance with Section 133.32 of the Ohio Revised Code to the respective purposes and funds in accordance with the amount of each issue of Series 2019 Various Purpose Bonds and for which purposes such proceeds are hereby appropriated. Any premium and accrued interest received by the County from such sale shall be transferred to the bond retirement fund to be applied to the payment of the principal and interest of the Consolidated Bonds in the manner provided by law.

That at least two members of this Board, the County Auditor, the County Administrator and/or the Budget Director are separately hereby authorized, alone or with others, to prepare and distribute to prospective purchasers of the Consolidated Bonds and other interested parties, a preliminary official statement with respect to the Consolidated Bonds on behalf of this County, which shall be in substantially the form heretofore submitted to this Board with such changes thereto as such officials may approve, and which shall be deemed final for purposes of Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 15c2-12(b)(1) except for certain information excluded therefrom in accordance with such Rule and which will be provided in the final official statement.

The County hereby covenants and agrees that it will execute, comply with and carry out all of the provisions of a continuing disclosure certificate dated the date of issuance and delivery of the Consolidated Bonds (the “Continuing Disclosure Certificate”) in connection with the issuance of the Consolidated Bonds. Failure to comply with any such provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Certificate shall not constitute a default on the Consolidated Bonds; however, any holder of the Consolidated Bonds may take such action as may be necessary and appropriate, including seeking specific performance, to cause the County to comply with its obligations under this paragraph and the Continuing Disclosure Certificate.

SECTION 7. That at least two members of this Board, the County Auditor, the County Administrator and/or the Budget Director are hereby separately authorized, alone or with others, to execute and deliver an agreement with the Paying Agent and Registrar for its services as paying agent, registrar and transfer agent for the Consolidated Bonds in such form as such officers may approve, the execution thereof by such officer to be conclusive evidence of such authorization and approval.

That payment in any event shall be made to the person who is the registered owner of that Consolidated Bond on the date that principal is due, or, with respect to the payment of interest, as of the applicable date agreed upon as the case may be.

b.21 JOURNAL ENTRY

In the matter of authorizing Issuance not to exceed )$5,240,000 Capital Improvement Plan improvement ) December 19, 2018 bond anticipation notes, series 2019, for purpose of )paying costs of constructing and acquiring )improvements to various county owned properties, )including HVAC improvements, roof repairs and )replacements, sidewalk, parking lots, storm sewer, )landscape, security and other site and building )improvements and additional money for a new )warehouse and repairs to parking decks and surface )lots, together with all necessary appurtenances thereto)

Commissioner Kokoski said the county has lacked funds for years for capital improvement projects. Mr. Cordes said yes capital improvements have been neglected. The parking deck is in need of repair but to even start discussion would be around $2 million, the top deck will be closed at the end of next week and around 100 employees will be parking elsewhere. The engineer has surveyed and does not feel comfortable to use top deck. The $2.6-2.8 million will only get us around 5-8 years. Discussion need to be had about taking the deck down but then something would have to be done with the back of the building since the deck was build to support the entrances. Would like to expand the deck to the alley with the loading dock and add additional 100 spots. We also don’t have enough space for move ability when the repairs begin. Also the warehouse is bad, leaking roof, so we need to either fix for $ 1milion for abandon and find other property because the county has a lot of equipment that needs to be stored. He stated the City of Elyria leases space in our Port Authority building for their needs. Commissioner Kalo said the Justice Center is also 15 years old

Following resolution was adopted:

In the matter of authorizing Issuance not to exceed )$4,380,000 Court Information Technology Case )management system improvements bond ) December 19, 2018anticipation notes, series 2019,f or purpose of )paying costs of acquiring, installing and )implementing improvements for Lorain County )Court technology system, including hardware, )software upgrades, servers, computers, rack switches)migration and integration development, tracking )system license fees and all other capital costs )required for system installation and use together )with all necessary appurtenances thereto )

Tom Orlando, Clerk of Courts said a new system is needed for the Clerk of Courts and Courts; we have been keeping it together with bandages. The requested proposal was back in 2016 and there were 6 case management systems that were demoed in January/February 2017 and each was given 1 week presentation. They have found that there is not one global vendor to integrate all the documents for everyone involved. There were a lot of negotiations with the team and Assistant Prosecutor Innes. There are consumable costs with hardware, software and recovery plan for common Please, Domestic Relation and Juvenile. Clerk of Courts will have e filings and Pioneer Benchmark was the preferred site used and eventually could be paperless.

Commissioner Kalo said discussion has been ongoing since 2016 and the cost was $5-7 million with one system but have learned this is not achievable. Mr. Orlando said Clerk of Courts office is looking at a 2 year implementation process. Commissioner Kalo said he is happy to see that it is around only $4.7 million, Clerk of Courts Orlando said the contracts have been sent to the commissioners. Commissioner Kalo asked if this system is interlocking with the City of Lorain Municipal Courts, Mr. Orlando said yes, but Elyria Muni will have the same the same system as Domestic Juvenile. Commissioner Kalo asked about Oberlin and Avon Lake municipal courts. Mr. Orlando said he will not know until system is up and running but this is the best system for the County Clerk of Courts, Prosecutor and Courts connectivity.

Commissioner Lundy thanked Clerk of Courts Orlando, Judges and the team for their due diligence and the collaborate effort. He stated that the Supreme Court should have consistency through the whole state of Ohio just like Board of Elections are doing and would encourage the Judges to discuss this with the Supreme Court. Mr. Orlando said that is a good point, but challenging because they kind of learned this with the City of Lorain and system not working. They did have discussions with Lucas County Commissioners and they hired a consultant for $2-400000 for their negotiations, and here Lorain County saved this money with our in house negotiating team. Mr. Orlando said in the Clerk of Courts Auto Title this is a statewide system.Mr. Orlando said the Commissioners will be given a monthly update on the process. Commissioner Kalo said our IT Director Ernie Smith is on that team

Commissioner Kokoski asked why a 2 year implementation and how long with this system last to the future. Mr. Orlando said there are license fees that need to be paid and we will be given updates when available, along with maintenance and hope that the system is perpetuity, could be 10-15 years. Commissioner Kokoski asked about funding for the offset cost. Mr. Orlando said his office has a computerized court fund and they will pay for maintenance fee until full integrated for those years.

Commissioner Lundy asked about resources being brought to the table. Commissioner Kokoski said lease not purchase.Mr. Orlando said Clerk of Courts is purchasing.

Brian Michaels, Prosecutors System Information said the Prosecutors office will not have any hardware, software or maintenance. They are paying Matrix Software monthly fees; it’s like a cloud base system.

Prosecutor Dennis Will said they have limited funds in budget through COPS and their affidavit maker for grant jury is even outdated costing around $10,000 so there is no money. He stated that 50% of the State of Ohio County Prosecutors is using Matrix as well as the Attorney General and it is the most cost effective way

Judge Lisa Swienski, Domestic Relations thanked Clerk of Courts Orlando, Staff Attorney Kate Lenz and the Commissioners, this has been a process. They do have a source of funds.

Journal entry cont. – Courts Computer System December 19, 2018

Jody Barilla, Court Administrator – Domestic Relations have funds, around $100,000 annually to support the court system and court system could be quicker on their implementation they have J Works.Commissioner Lundy said it will cost $100,000 in service annually. Ms. Barilla said around $120,000 they have more modules than Probation, DH, Clerks Office. Commissioner Lundy said then there still is trail cost. Ms. Barilla said it’s a cloud base solution and they will have cost savings with no hardware, software.Judge Swienski said she has been working with this group of Judges for years and they are very fragile with their money being taxpayer’s money and that is why it took so long to negotiate this to figure out what the best was for all.

Judge Jim Miraldi, Common Pleas said the whole team did a great job.Deb Tansey, Assistant Court Administrator said they have a court computer fund that has around $40-45,000/annual and the jury module

is an extra cost but they have funds to buy hardware.Commissioners thanked them and their collaboration between the Clerk of Courts and Courts.

County Administrator Cordes said there are still discussions that need to take place on the funding because this is short term and should be reduced regards to funding sources and meetings need to be held with the partners

JOURNAL ENTRYBOARD OF ELECTIONS VOTING EQUIPMENT

Voting Equipment – Participate in a Sublease-purchase arrangement with the Ohio Secretary of State for purpose of acquiring and implementing voting machines and equipment and financing certain costs thereof, a sublease-purchase agreement evidencing such arrangement and matters related thereto

Paul Adams, Director Lorain County Board of Elections said the current system;• Diebold Touch Screen System• 2003 - manufactured• 2005 - first used in Lorain County• Has been used in 40 elections• 1,094 – functional voting units

• 1,120–needed to open all polling locations• Currently losing a growing number of units after each election & most replacement parts are no longer in production

Why Not Paper Only System• Accuracy

• Current Pollbooks encode the Voter Card to ensure correct ballot is provided to each voter.• A paper system would require the Poll Workers to manually pull ballots. *Example: in a Primary Election the North Ridgeville

Education Center could have as many as15 different ballot styles to manually pull from in a paper only system.• Bilingual Requirements

• Creates multi page ballots that most counties don’t normally have. • Cost

• Initial costs for a paper system are less than touch screen systems, but due to additional ballot printing the long term costs are higher.

• After the first 5 years a paper system becomes more expensive than a Hybrid or similar touch screen system.• BOEs on all paper systems are required to print 5% more paper ballots than there are registered voters.

The additional paper ballots are particularly wasteful in a Primary Election when large quantities must be ordered.• Voter Use

• Lorain County voters are comfortable with touch screen voting (in use here since 2005)When given the option for paper ballots less than a dozen Lorain County voters in major elections chose not to vote on a touch screen voting unit

Board of Elections considered the following:All costs are the county’s share after the state allocated funds of $2,822,926.65

• Dominion Hybrid System• Initial County Cost: $1,753,786.35• Five Year Cost (with licensing & warranty): $3,212,870.35

• Dominion DRE System• Initial County Cost: $1,207,707.35 • Five Year Cost (with licensing & warranty): $2,382,907.35

• ES&S Hybrid System• Initial County Cost: $1,733,910.35 • Five Year Cost (with licensing & warranty): $2,100,770.35

On December 12th the Board of Elections selected the ES&S Hybrid System.

ES&S Hybrid System• Items that are important for Lorain County:

• High Speed Scanners• Similar set-up for Technicians/Poll Workers• Similar touch screen experience Lorain County voters are used to

• Cost savings• Audit & Recounts will be less labor intensive with improved technology and ballot cards

*Example: 2018 Recount

Commissioner Kokoski asked how many absentee ballots need scanned. Mr. Adams said around 40,000 voters in the county for presidential will vote and if usually multiple pages so could be 80,000 pages plus. He stated when there is a county wide recall like Board of Education in the state individuals have to roll through and look at each, then mark tally sheets, could take up to 50 people to count because you can’t separate ballots out because they are on 1 roll of paper. With this system it will be similar to punch cards, you would take the cards with the numbers and separate than count which would have a cost savings and more accuracy.

• How the system will work for a voter• Voter signs in at the Pollbook and receives a blank ballot card with their precinct/split information• Voter inserts card into voting unit• Voter selects their choices and ballot is then printed with the voter’s selections• Voter can review the ballot• Voter will insert the ballot into a scanner to be counted

Page 36: of the Boar… · Web vie

Implementation goals• Primary of 2019 (Partial county)• General Election of 2019 (full county)

Two Elections for voters & poll workers to become familiar with the new system before the 2020 Presidential Primary

Commissioner Lundy said the municipal primary is usually low. Mr. Adams said yes, we wish there was higher turnoutCommissioner Lundy said he heard there were hiccups with Johnson County, Kansas, are there assurances all ok. Mr. Adams said they

looked at and spoke with other directors around the state and with that particular issue in Johnson County, Kansas after looking into it further this system is similar to the one we looked at but has a tabulator or and has everything incorporated together not a separate scanner so there were some glitches not producing the results quickly. There was nothing wrong with the voting it was just software not cooperating quickly for real results.

Commissioner Lundy said are all certified federal elections system. Mr. Adams said in Ohio it is required all election equipment must be not only federally but also state certifications, other states do not require that.

Commissioner Lundy asked if the system is secure with all the cellular modems. Mr. Adams said there are always questions about how people can hack into the system with internet, wireless communication and when it comes to the State of Ohio election system tabulate system, all is prohibited by law that is connected to a wireless, internet connection and he knows that and Secretary of State sends a letter to Directors that have to sign and required to understand. There are other states that have moved towards some type of wireless communication and has created some issues.

Commissioner Kokoski said working with County Commissioners Association. Commissioner Kalo said yes they sat with the County Board of Elections and state certification purchase with legislative giving $114 million because Governor Kasich was only giving to give $85 million. $10 million will help counties that have already purchased equipment, eBooks were 70% paid and everyone will be up to date, safe process and the equipment is already 15 years old. The state should take on the board of elections its unfunded mandate to the counties and they are required to provide elections and it was a mandate of $1.7 million. He also thanked Mr. Giardini and Mr. Kramer for their hard work as well. Mr. Adams thanked the Commissioners and has always been on the front lines with them. Commissioner Kokoski thanked everyone for all their good due diligenceCommissioner Kalo asked about trade value, Mr. Adams said they will be destroyedCommissioner Lundy thanked everyone for their hard work. Board of Elections staff has always been very professional and take job seriously and runs well. This will be good to get in place for primary to see what works and does not and thanked Commissioner Kalo for all his hard work in Columbus and said the State should be in charge of this

Mr. Cordes said there are some issues with this and how the purchasing will be through a lease. Commissioner Kalo said the lease with state, to be over a 3 year period.Mr. Cordes said can covert letter and issue but do we own equipment or not, if long term need to own complete assets, can’t bound a cloud. Commissioner Kalo said State Attorney had general contract and unlimited indemnification and it was fixed.Mr. Tony Giradini said we are purchasing and will be reimbursed $2.8 million from state and staid the license fees will not be reimbursed. Mr. Cordes said will resolve with bond counsel, have money to move quickly but need asset. Commissioner Kalo said there were a lot of discussion through CCAO, and Prosecutors and we are purchasing we just need difference o $2.3-2.89 million. Mr. Giradini said it is a $4.5 million system. Commissioner Kalo said Mr. Innes is here. Assistant County Prosecutor Innes said we are all good.

Following resolution was adopted:

In the matter of authorizing Issuance not to exceed )$1,040,000 County Dog Kennel facility bond ) December 19, 2018anticipation notes, series 2019 for the purpose of )paying costs of construing and acquiring )improvements for a new dog kennel facility )together with all necessary appurtenances thereto )

County Administrator Cordes said a new kennel is needed. There has been some surveying of adjoining counties as to what their license fees are and we will need to adjust and this would pay for a new kennel. The kennel is now 20 years old and we need to have a bigger area with a bigger running area since we are a no kill facility and have adopted a spay/neuter program that cost around $40-50,000 annually and the revenue is very close to the expenses. Commissioner Kokoski said she is glad and we need to have a more central location rather than at the current location. Mr. Cordes said there are 2-3 other possible areas and hope to have something by fall.

That the provisions of the respective resolutions authorizing the Various Purpose General Obligation Notes, Series 2019 relating to security and sources of payment, federal tax status of the Various Purpose General Obligation Notes, Series 2019 and of interest payable thereon, are hereby incorporated by reference into this resolution and the Consolidated Notes.

Resolution No. 18-837 cont. December 19, 2018

SECTION 5. That the Consolidated Notes shall be sold to the Purchaser at not less than 97% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date of delivery, as determined by the County Auditor or the County Administrator without further action of this Board pursuant to the Purchaser’s offer to purchase which such officer is hereby authorized to accept, to make the necessary arrangements with the Purchaser to establish the date, location, procedure and conditions for the delivery of the Consolidated Notes to the Purchaser, to give all appropriate notices and certificates and to take all steps necessary to effect the due execution and delivery of the Consolidated Notes. The proceeds from the sale of the Consolidated Notes, except as any premium and accrued interest received, shall be apportioned, deposited and credited in accordance with Section 133.32 of the Ohio Revised Code to the respective purposes and funds in accordance with the amount of each issue of Various Purpose General Obligation Notes, Series 2019 and for which purposes such proceeds are hereby appropriated. Any premium and accrued interest received from such sale shall be transferred to the bond retirement fund to be applied to the payment of the principal and interest of the Consolidated Notes in the manner provided by law.

SECTION 6. The County hereby covenants and agrees that it will execute, comply with and carry out all of the provisions of a continuing disclosure certificate dated the date of issuance and delivery of the Consolidated Notes (the "Continuing Disclosure Certificate") in connection with the issuance of the Consolidated Notes. Failure to comply with any such provisions of the Continuing Disclosure Certificate shall not constitute a default on the Consolidated Notes; however, any holder of the Consolidated Notes may take such action as may be necessary and appropriate, including seeking specific performance, to cause the County to comply with its obligations under this paragraph and the Continuing Disclosure Certificate.

SECTION 7. That at least two members of this Board, the County Auditor, the County Administrator and/or the Budget Director are hereby separately authorized, alone or with others, to execute and deliver an agreement with the Paying Agent and Registrar for its services as paying agent, registrar and transfer agent for the Consolidated Notes in such form as such officers may approve, the execution thereof by such officer to be conclusive evidence of such authorization and approval.

SECTION 8. That for purposes of this Resolution, the following terms shall have the following meanings:"Book entry form" or "book entry system" means a form or system under which (i) the beneficial right to payment of principal of and

interest on the Consolidated Notes may be transferred only through a book entry, and (ii) physical Consolidated Note certificates in fully registered form are issued only to the Depository or its nominee as registered owner, with the Consolidated Notes "immobilized" to the custody of the Depository, and the book entry maintained by others than this County is the record that identifies the owners of beneficial interests in those Consolidated Notes and that principal and interest.

"Depository" means any securities depository that is a clearing agency under federal law operating and maintaining, together with its Participants or otherwise, a book entry system to record ownership of beneficial interests in Consolidated Notes or principal and interest, and to effect transfers of Consolidated Notes, in book entry form, and includes and means initially The Depository Trust Company (a limited purpose trust company), New York, New York.

"Participant" means any participant contracting with a Depository under a book entry system and includes security brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies, and clearing corporations.

All or any portion of the Consolidated Notes may be initially issued to a Depository for use in a book entry system, and the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Consolidated Notes, notwithstanding any other provision of this Resolution. If and as long as a book entry system is utilized with respect to any of such Consolidated Notes: (i) there shall be a single Consolidated Note registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee, as registered owner, and immobilized in the custody of the Depository; (iii) the beneficial owners of Consolidated Notes in book entry form shall have no right to receive Consolidated Notes in the form of physical securities or certificates; (iv) ownership of beneficial interests in any Consolidated Notes in book entry form shall be shown by book entry on the system maintained and operated by the Depository and its Participants, and transfers of the ownership of beneficial interests shall be made only by book entry by the Depository and its Participants; and (v) the Consolidated Notes as such shall not be transferable or exchangeable, except for transfer to another Depository or to another nominee of a Depository, without further action by this County. Debt service charges on Consolidated Notes in book entry form registered in the name of a Depository or its nominee shall be payable in the manner provided in this County’s agreement with the Depository to the Depository or its authorized representative upon presentation and surrender of Consolidated Notes as provided in this Resolution.

The Paying Agent and Registrar may, with the approval of this County, enter into an agreement with the beneficial owner or registered owner of any Consolidated Note in the custody of a Depository providing for making all payments to that owner of principal and interest on that Consolidated Note or any portion thereof (other than any payment of the entire unpaid principal amount thereof) at a place and in a manner (including wire transfer of federal funds) other than as provided in this Resolution, without prior presentation or surrender of the Consolidated Note, upon any conditions which shall be satisfactory to the Paying Agent and Registrar and to this County. That payment in any event shall be made to the person who is the registered owner of that Consolidated Note on the date that principal is due, or, with respect to the payment of interest, as of the applicable date agreed upon as the case may be. The Paying Agent and Registrar shall furnish a copy of each of those agreements, certified to be correct by the Paying Agent and Registrar, to any other paying agents for the Consolidated Notes and to this County. Any payment of principal or interest pursuant to such an agreement shall constitute payment thereof pursuant to, and for all purposes of, this Resolution.

The County Administrator or the Budget Director are authorized and directed without further action of this Board to execute, acknowledge and deliver, in the name of and on behalf of this County, a blanket letter agreement between this County and The Depository Trust Company, as Depository, to be delivered in connection with the issuance of the Consolidated Notes to the Depository for use in a book entry system, and to take all other actions the County Administrator or the Budget Director deems appropriate in issuing the Consolidated Notes under a book entry system.

If any Depository determines not to continue to act as Depository for the Consolidated Notes for use in a book entry system, this County and the Paying Agent and Registrar may attempt to establish a securities depository/book entry relationship with another qualified Depository under this Resolution. If this County and the Paying Agent and Registrar do not or are unable to do so, this County and the Paying Agent and Registrar, after the Paying Agent and Registrar has made provision for notification of the beneficial owners by the then Depository, shall permit withdrawal of the Consolidated Notes from the Depository and authenticate and deliver Consolidated Note certificates in fully registered form to the assigns of the Depository or its nominee, all at the cost and expense (including costs of printing definitive Consolidated Notes), if the event is not the result of action or inaction by this County or the Paying Agent and Registrar, of those persons requesting such issuance.

SECTION 9. That the members of this Board, the County Auditor, the County Administrator, the Budget Director or any other officer, employee or agent of this County, are each hereby separately authorized, alone or with others to apply for a rating from one or more national rating services with respect to the consolidated Notes, and any such actions heretofore taken are hereby approved, ratified and confirmed. The payment of the fees and expenses relating to any such rating from the proceeds of the consolidated Notes is hereby authorized.

SECTION 10. That the Clerk of this Board is hereby directed to forward a certified copy of this resolution to the County Auditor.

SECTION 11. That it is found and determined that all formal actions of this Board concerning and relating to the adoption of this resolution were adopted in an open meeting of this Board, and that all deliberations of this Board and of any of its committees that resulted in such formal action, were in meetings open to the public, in compliance with the law, including Section 121.22 of the Revised Code of Ohio.
