TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
The Honorable Chair and Trustees
Owasso Public Works Authority (OPWA)
FROM: Carly Novozinsky, Finance Director
SUBJECT: Authorization of Sales Tax Revenue Note, Series 2024
DATE: May 17, 2024
BACKGROUND:
In October of 2003, Owasso citizens voted to approve changes to the third -penny sales tax
ordinance. According to Ordinance 763, the purpose of the third -penny sales tax is "to provide
revenues to finance or fund capital projects and related costs, to include debt service on
obligations issued to finance said capital projects." The ordinance includes the requirement that
"said capital projects" are to be reviewed "by the Capital Improvements Committee, approved
by the City Council by resolution, with oversight given by the Citizens' Watchdog Committee
established by the City Council."
On June 6, 2013, Council approved Resolution 2023-11 which identified approximately $148 million
in capital improvement projects, of which, approximately $95 million require third -penny sales tax
funding. The third -penny sales tax generates approximately $11 million per year, of which,
approximately $5 million is currently committed annually for existing debt service. Currently,
approximately $53 million remains to be funded from future years' collections.
As has been discussed with the Capital Improvement Committee and the Sales Tax Oversight
Committee on multiple occasions, authorized Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) will require
approximately six to seven years of sales tax revenues to fund. At the May 2024 Worksession, staff
outlined the need for future financing of capital projects to enable the City to advance the
progress of approved CIP projects without delay.
SALES TAX REVENUE NOTE, SERIES 2024:
The proposed $42,870,000 Series 2024 Sales Tax Revenue Note would include approximately $30
million for reimbursement for construction of the new Public Works Facility, as well as, funds for
Garnett Road widening from East 106th Street North to East 116th Street North. The Note would be
repaid from the third -penny sales tax over a fifteen -year period.
OPWA Resolution 2024 -01 authorizes the issuance of a $42,870,000 Sales Tax Revenue Note, Series
2024. As a public trust of the City, the OPWA cannot incur debt without the approval of the City
Council. City Resolution 2024 -03 authorizes fhe OPWA to issue its Sales Tax Revenue Note, Series
2024.
Both resolutions approve waiver of competitive bidding and authorizes the note to be sold on a
negotiated basis. Both resolutions also ratify and confirm existing agreements between the City
and the OPWA, provides various other requirements of the financing, and authorizes the execution
of all documents related to the transaction including a pledge of certain sales tax revenues.
The OPWA resolution also authorizes approval of professional service agreements with The Public
Finance Law Group, PLLC. OPWA Trustees approved a professional service agreement with
Municipal Finance Services, Inc on July 11, 2023 that does not expire until June 30, 2024. The scope
of this agreement covers any financing through OPWA, therefore, a new agreement is not
required.
CITY RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of Resolution 2024-03 approving the incurrence of indebtedness by
the Owasso Public Works Authority (the "Authority ") issuing its Sales Tax Revenue Note, Series 2024
(the "Note "); providing that the organizational document creating the Authority is subject to the
provisions of the Note indenture, authorizing the issuance of said Note; waiving competitive
bidding with respect to the sale of said Note and approving the proceedings of the Authority
pertaining to the sale of said Note; ratifying and confirming a sales tax agreement by and
between the City of Owasso, Oklahoma (the "City ") and the Authority pertaining to the year -to-
year pledge of certain sales tax revenues; and containing other provisions relating thereto. Staff
further recommends amendment of the Capital Improvements Fund budget to increase
appropriations for expenditures by $24,100,000.
OPWA RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of Resolution 2024 -01 authorizing the Owasso Public Works Authority
(the "Authority ") to issue its Sales Tax Revenue Note, Series 2024 (the "Note ") in the aggregate
principal amount of $42,870,000; waiving competitive bidding and authorizing the Note to be sold
on a negotiated basis; ratifying and confirming a sales tax agreement by and between the City
and the Authority pertaining to a year -to -year pledge of certain sales tax revenue; approving and
authorizing execution of a supplemental note indenture authorizing the issuance and securing the
payment of the Note; providing that the organizational document creating the Authority is subject
to the provisions of the Note indenture; authorizing and directing the execution of the Note and
other documents relating to the transaction; and containing other provisions relating thereto. Staff
further recommends amendment of the Owasso Public Works Authority budget to increase
appropriations for both revenues and expenditures by $42,870,000.

THE OWASSO PUBLIC WORKS AUTHORITY
SALES TAX REVENUE NOTE, SERIES 2024
THIS AGREEMENT is entered into as of May 21, 2024, by and between THE PUBLIC
FINANCE LAW GROUP PLLC ( "PFLG ") and THE OWASSO PUBLIC WORKS AUTHORITY
(the "Issuer "), a public trust with the City of Owasso, Oklahoma (the "City") as its beneficiary, as
follows:
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Issuer desires to engage PFLG as bond counsel in connection with the
financing of certain capital improvements, along with related costs (the "Project "); and
WHEREAS, to finance all or a portion of the costs of the Project, the Issuer intends to issue
its Sales Tax Revenue Note, Series 2024 in the principal amount $42,870,000.00 (the "Note "); and
WHEREAS, PFLG possesses the necessary professional capabilities and resources to
provide the legal services required by Issuer as described in this Agreement.
AGREEMENTS
1. Scone of Services.
A. Bond Counsel Services. PFLG will render the following services as bond counsel
to the Issuer:
(1) Consultation with representatives of the Issuer and the City, including the City
Manager, City Attorney, Issuer's Counsel, Finance Director, financing and
accounting staff, financial advisors, and others, with respect to the timing, terms
and legal structure of the proposed financing.
(2) Preparation of loan, security and other authorizing documents (the "Financing
Documents ").

PFLG and Issuer acknowledge that Issuer shall be represented by Julie Lombardi, Esq., City
Attorney ( "Issuer's Counsel ") for the purpose of rendering day -to -day and ongoing general counsel
legal services. PFLG shall circulate documents to and coordinate its services with Issuer's Counsel
to the extent requested by Issuer or Issuer's Counsel.
PFLG and Issuer further acknowledge that the Issuer shall be represented by Municipal
Finance Services, Inc., a municipal advisor pursuant to the terms of SEC Rule 1513al -1 (referred
to herein as an "Independent Registered Municipal Advisor" or "IRMA "). PFLG is a firm of
attorneys who provide legal advice or services of a traditional legal nature to a client, and PFLG
and its attorneys do not represent themselves to be a financial advisor or financial expert.
Therefore, PFLG is excluded from the definition of Municipal Advisor, and PFLG does not intend
to provide any advice with respect to municipal financial products or the issuance of municipal
securities outside of the scope of traditional legal services and advice customarily rendered by
bond counsel in public finance transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event certain
advice may be construed as beyond the scope of traditional legal services, the Issuer specifically
acknowledges that PFLG may avail itself of the IRMA exemption under SEC Rule 1513a1 -1 on
the basis that (i) the Issuer is represented by an Independent Registered Municipal Advisor not
associated with PFLG, (ii) the Issuer hereby advises PFLG that the Issuer is represented by and
will rely on the advice of its duly retained Independent Registered Municipal Advisor, and (iii) the
Issuer has been advised that PFLG is not a municipal advisor and PFLG owes no federal statutory
fiduciary duty to the Issuer.
In rendering opinions and performing legal services under this Agreement, PFLG shall be
entitled to rely on the accuracy and completeness of information provided, certifications made by,
and opinions provided by counsel to, Issuer, the Independent Registered Municipal Advisor,
property owners and other parties and consultants, without independent investigation or
verification.
PFLG's services are limited to those specifically set forth above. PFLG's services do not
include representation of Issuer or any other party to the transaction in any litigation or other legal
or administrative proceeding involving the Note, the Project or any other matter. PFLG's services
2
also do not include any responsibility for compliance with state blue sky, environmental, land use,
real estate or similar laws or for title to or perfection of security interests in real or personal
property. PFLG will not be responsible for preparing, reviewing, or opining with respect to the
Issuer's Official Statement and /or any Continuing Disclosure Undertakings for the Note, including
but not limited to the accuracy, completeness or sufficiency of the Official Statement, Continuing
Disclosure Undertaking, or other offering material relating to the Note. PFLG's services do not
include any financial advice or analysis. PFLG will not be responsible for the services performed
or acts or omissions of any other participant. Also, PFLG's services will not extend past the date
of issuance of the Note and will not, for example, include services related to rebate compliance or
continuing disclosure or otherwise related to the Note, proceeds of the Note, or the Project after
issuance of the Note.
2. Compensation and Reimbursements.
A. Compensation for Bond Counsel Services. For services as bond counsel to the
Issuer, PFLG shall be paid a fixed fee at the time of issuance of the Note of one percent
(1.0 %) of the principal amount of the Note.
B. Expenses. PFLG shall also be paid a fixed amount of $2,500.00 to cover expenses
and transcript production and distribution, provided, that any filing, publication, recording
or printing costs or similar third party costs required in connection with the Note shall be
paid directly by the Issuer, but if paid by PFLG on behalf of the Issuer, shall be reimbursed
to PFLG on demand.
C. Payment. Fees and expenses shall be payable by Issuer at the time of issuance of
the Note. Payment of all fees and expenses hereunder shall be made at closing from
proceeds of the Note and shall be entirely contingent upon issuance of the Note.
D. Termination of Agreement and Legal Services. This Agreement and all legal
services to be rendered under it may be terminated at any time by written notice from either
party, with or without cause. In that event, all finished and unfinished documents prepared
for adoption or execution by Issuer, shall, at the option of Issuer, become its property and
shall be delivered to it or to any party it may designate; provided that PFLG shall have no
liability whatsoever for any subsequent use of such documents. In the event of termination
by Issuer, PFLG shall be paid for all satisfactory work, unless the termination is made for
cause, in which event compensation, if any, shall be adjusted in the light of the particular
facts and circumstances involved in the termination. If not sooner terminated as aforesaid,
this Agreement and all legal services to be rendered under it shall terminate upon issuance
of the Note; provided that Issuer shall remain liable for any unpaid compensation or
reimbursement due under Section 2 hereof. Upon termination, PFLG shall have no future
duty of any kind to or with respect to the Note or the Issuer.
3
3. Nature of Engagement; Relationships With Other Parties.
The role of bond counsel, generally, is to prepare or review the procedures for issuance of
the bonds, notes or other evidence of indebtedness and to provide an expert legal opinion with
respect to the validity thereof and other subjects addressed by the opinion. Consistent with the
historical origin and unique role of such counsel, and reliance thereon by the public finance market,
PFLG's role as bond counsel under this Agreement is to provide an opinion and related legal
services that represent an objective judgment on the matters addressed rather than the partisan
position of an advocate.
In performing its services in connection with the Note, PFLG will act as special counsel to
Issuer with respect to issuance of the Note; i.e., PFLG will assist the Issuer's Counsel in
representing Issuer but only with respect to validity of the Note and the Financing Documents, and
the tax status of interest on the Note, in a manner not inconsistent with the role of bond counsel
described above.
Issuer acknowledges that PFLG regularly performs legal services for many private and
public entities in connection with a wide variety of matters. For example, PFLG has represented,
is representing or may in the future represent other public entities, underwriters, trustees, rating
agencies, insurers, credit enhancement providers, lenders, contractors, suppliers, financial and
other consultants /advisors, accountants, investment providers/brokers, providers /brokers of
derivative products and others who may have a role or interest in the Note financing or the Project
or that may be involved with or adverse to Issuer in this or some other matter. PFLG agrees not
to represent any such entity in connection with the Note financing, without the consent of Issuer.
Given the special, limited role of bond counsel described above, Issuer acknowledges that no
conflict of interest exists or would exist, and waives any conflict of interest that might appear
actually or potentially to exist, now or in the future, by virtue of this Agreement or any such other
attorney - client relationship that PFLG may have had, have or enter into, and Issuer specifically
consents to any and all such relationships.
4. Limitation of Rights to Parties; Successor and Assigns.
Nothing in this Agreement or in any of the documents contemplated hereby, expressed or
implied, is intended or shall be construed to give any person other than Issuer and PFLG any legal
or equitable right or claim under or in respect of this Agreement, and this Agreement shall inure
to the sole and exclusive benefit of Issuer and PFLG.
PFLG may not assign its obligations under this Agreement without written consent of
Issuer except to a successor partnership or corporation to which all or substantially all of the assets
and operations of PFLG are transferred. Issuer may assign its rights and obligations under this
Agreement to (but only to) any other public entity that issues the Note (if not the Issuer). Issuer
shall not otherwise assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without written consent
of PFLG. All references to PFLG and Issuer in this Agreement shall be deemed to refer to any
such successor of PFLG and to any such assignee of Issuer and shall bind and inure to the benefit
of such successor and assignee whether so expressed or not.
5. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and each counterpart shall
for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but
one and the same Agreement.
6. Notices.
Any and all notice pertaining to this Agreement shall be sent by U.S. Postal Service, first

to their municipal advisory client and/or obligated person clients which include the following:
Municipal Finance Services, Inc. is currently registered as a Municipal Advisor with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the MSRB.

VL Collf/iet of Interest Statement
As of the date of this agreement, MFSOK has performed a reasonable diligence to determine if there are
any conflicts of interest that should be brought to the attention of the Client. During the diligence process,
MFSOK has determined that no material conflict of interest has been identified, however, would like to provide
the following disclosures:
MFSOK serves a wide variety of other clients that may from time to time have interests that could have
a direct or indirect impact on the interests of another MFSOK client for example, MFSOK serves as municipal
advisor to other clients and, in such cases, owes a regulatory duty to such other clients just as it does to the Client.
These other clients may, from time to time and depending on the specific circumstances, have competing interests.
3
In acting in the interests of its various clients. MFSOK could potentially face a conflict of interest arising from
these competing client interests. MFSOK fulfills its regulatory duty and mitigates such conflicts through dealing
honestly and with the utmost good faith with its clients.
The compensation arrangement included in Section II includes a component that is based on the size and
completion of a transaction. Consistent with certain regulatory requirements, MFSOK hereby discloses that such
contingent and /or transactional compensation presents a conflict of interest regarding MFSOK's ability to provide
unbiased advice to enter into such transaction. The contingent fee arrangement creates an incentive for MFSOK
to recommend unnecessary financings or financings that are disadvantages to the client, or to advise client to
increase the size of the issue. This viewed conflict of interest will not impairMFSOK's ability to render unbiased
and competent advice or to fulfill its fiduciary duty. The fee paid to MFSOK increases the cost of borrowing to
the Client. The increased cost occurs from compensating MFSOK for municipal advisory services provided.
If MFSOK becomes aware of any other actual or potential conflict of interest not mentioned above during
this agreement, MFSOK will promptly provide the Client a supplement written disclosure with sufficient details
of the change, if any, which will allow the Client to evaluate the situation.

SUBJECT: Bid Award - Transporting Earthen Material
DATE: May 17, 2024
BACKGROUND:
• In September 2023, City Council approved the excess earthen material at the new Public
Works Facility site as surplus to the needs of the City and authorized its disposal.
• Since September 2023, the general public and commercial haulers have removed
approximately 12,000 cubic yards of material. There is approximately 110,000 cubic yards
of excess material remaining on -site that needs to be moved.
• The Staff has identified two options: pay to haul the material off -site or leave the material
on -site and pay to have it moved to the southern end of the property.
• The Engineering cost estimate to leave the material on -site is $495,000.00. The cost
estimate to remove the material off -site would be determined by soliciting for quotes.
PUBLIC /PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITY:
• In May 2024, Staff was contacted by a local developer in need of a large amount of
earthen material for a local residential development. Depending on the receipt of
competitive quotes, the developer proposed to share the cost of hauling the material
off -site and to the area of the proposed residential development.
SEALED QUOTE AND ANALYSIS:
On May 15, 2024, City staff requested sealed quotes to transport approximately 110,000 cubic
yards of earthen material from the Public Works Facility site to the development drop site. On
May 17, 2024, bids were opened, with a total of 11 contractors submitting quotes.
Pinney Dozer Service provided the lowest quote in the amount of $7.45 per cubic yard for the
haul service and $0.50 cents per cubic yard for the loading service.
After further analysis, cost - sharing of transporting off -site with the private sector would save the
OPWA approximately $57,000.00 when compared to the cost of leaving the material on -site and
paying to move it to the southern end of the property.
FUNDING:
Funding is included in the project budget within the Owasso Public Works Authority Fund.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends awarding the contract to Pinney Dozer Service, LLC of Skiatook, Oklahoma,
at the rate of $7.95 per cubic yard for loading and transporting services, in an amount not to
exceed $874,500.00, and authorization to execute all necessary documents.
