REPORT RE PROPOSED Counciiman Hughes apprised the City Council
NCPA GEOTHERMAL that effective Thursday, July 27, 1978,
PLANT IN SONOMA/ N.C. P. A, mai':, a selection of a financial
LAKE COUNTY package t- -at v!'_ll allow them to prcceed with
the building of a geothermal plant in Sonoma/
Lake Coo tv. This is the first time that
:.� N.C. P.A. actually moved into a position where
virtually all of the major steps have been com-
pleted, and are literally prepared to commence
with the construction phase of the operation.
Basically, what this financial package consists
of are two bona issuer; one will be a 41 million
dollar bona issue over a 30 year period, the
first five years being interest only. This par-
ticular bond issue would be a taxable bond issue
and will carry the Department of Energy guarantee,
which mea: s that if for any reason the project is
unsuccessful, that the Cities would not be obli-
gated. The Federal Government would underwrite
the 41 million dollars, but could take the entire
plant as collateral.
The second bond issue would be a 16 million
dollar bond issue. This bond issue would not be
backed by the Department of Energy. This parti-
cular proposal is 100% financed which would allow
N.C. P. A, to service the entire bond obligation
out of the proceeds of the plant. This would not
require a major capital investment.on the part of
the cities in order to put this plant:together. The
16 million dollar bond issue would be a Municipal
tax exempt bond issue.
Both of these bond issues would be sold through
a consortium led by Merrill, Lynch, Pierce,
Fenner, and Smith, Inc. who sought this package
with a great deal of enthusiasm. The outlined >
financing will go into effect probably sometime in
February 1979. The reason for this six to eight
month delay is because none of the bonds would
be authorized to be sold until the Department of
Energy Loan Guarantee is received. Immediately
upon_ receipt cf this Loan Guarantee, they can pro-
ceed with the full plans for building design and
constructicn of the plant, which should take
approximately three years.
Councilman Hughes further advised the Council
that the application had been filed with the
Departme::t of Energy Aug : t 2, 1978 and that on
Monday, August 7, 1978 a Notice of Intent will be
filed with the State Energy (,'c.-nrnission.
Lengthy Cc.uncil discussion followed with questions
being ?irected to Councilman Hughes regarding the
subject.

PROGRAM moved introduction of Ordinance No. 1153,
(Contd.) "An Ordinance Adopting a Capital Improvement

REPORT RE Council was advised that sometime ago Staff
RETIREMENT PAYMENTS had been directed to lock into the cost of addi-
FOR RETIRED tional retirement benefits for retired employees,
EMPLOYEES This was at the request of representatives of the
retired employees. The retired employees
ci
spefically requested that the City consider
amending the City's contract with P.E. R. S, to
provide 5 percent annual living increases. Staff
had contacted P. E. R. S. as to the cost of this
particular benefit and were told that an acturial
study would be needed; however, the cost of that
program would be between 6 and 12 percent of
payroll.
Staff also looked at a provision which would give
a one-time increase of from one percent to seven
percent in retirement allowances to those em-
ployees who retired prior to June 30, 1974. The
actual percentage increases is dependent upon the
date of retirement. The cost of this increased
benefit is 6176 of payroll. Salary costs for 1978-79
are approximately $4, 100, 000; therefore, the
costs of these benefits would be as follows:
511,10 annual cost of living increase - $246, 000
annually
110 - 77o one time increase - $24,600
annually
Question3 regarding the report were directed to
Staff. Following discussion by the Council,
Mayor Pinkerton directed Staff to further investi-
gate the matter and to reportitjlfindings to Council
at a future Council meeting. k
PURCHASE OF XEROX Staff recommended that Council approve the
EQUIPMENT APPRVD, purchase of Xerox equipment for the City Hall
and the Police Department through a lease pur-
chase arrangement with the Xerox Company.
Council was apprised of the dollar savings in 5
years on each piece of equipment. Other factors
considered in making the recommendation were:
a) Dollar savings start immediately
b) City's present income from interest is in
excess of 6.5%
c) At the end of 5 years, the City would own
the equipment and the equipment has an
additional 5 years of life.
