principal office of the City on a bulletin board or other prominent place which is easily accessible to the public and is the place designated for the purpose of posting notices of meetings. We further certify as follows: 1. The Total Project Costs are estimated to be at least $1,600,000. 2. The net sales proceeds of the Bonds are $1,078,685 (the "Net Sales Proceeds"), the same being the Issue Price thereof. 3. The Net Sales Proceeds, including investment earnings thereon, will be invested by the City without restriction as to yield for a period not to exceed three years from the date hereof (the "Three Year Temporary Period"), the following three tests being reasonably expected to be satisfied by the City: a. Time Test: The City has entered into or, within six months of the date hereof, will enter into binding contracts for the Project with third parties (e.g. engineers or contractors); (i) which are not subject to contingencies directly or indirectly within the City's control; (ii) which provide for the payment by the City to such third parties of an amount equal to at least 5% of the Net Sales Proceeds; b. Expenditure Test: At least 85% of Net Sales Proceeds will be applied to the payment of Total Project Costs within the Three Year Temporary Period; and c. Due Diligence Test: Acquisition and construction of the Project to completion and application of the Net Sales Proceeds to the payment of Total Project Costs will proceed with due diligence. 4. The Bonds are payable from ad valorem taxes levied against all taxable property within the City which will be collected in a Debt Service Fund and applied to the payment of interest on the Bonds on each June 1 and December 1 and principal of the Bonds on each June 1 (the 12-month period ending on each June 1 being herein referred to as a "Bond Year"); the Debt Service Fund is used primarily to achieve a proper matching of taxes with principal and interest payments
