The Commissioners approve a letter of engagement with City Services as underwriters and the placement agency to market the bonds.
Final determination of refinancing the jail bonds will be make on September 15th at the Commissioner’s meeting and the annual meeting of the holding corporation at 11 a.m. in the commissioner’s meeting room of the County Building.
