(a) Form of Bonds; Signatures and Seal. Each Bond shall be prepared in a form
consistent with the provisions of this ordinance and State law, and shall not be required
to be in the form set forth in Section 13.04.170 or any other section of the Tukwila
Municipal Code. The Bonds shall be issued in registered form and no coupons
representing interest on the Bonds need be attached. Each Bond shall be signed by the
Mayor and the City Clerk, either or both of whose signatures may be manual or in
facsimile, and the seal of the City or a facsimile reproduction thereof shall be impressed
or printed thereon. If any officer whose manual or facsimile signature appears on a
Bond ceases to be an officer of the City authorized to sign bonds before the Bond
bearing his or her manual or facsimile signature is authenticated by the Bond Registrar,
or issued or delivered by the City, that Bond nevertheless may be authenticated, issued
and delivered and, when authenticated, issued and delivered, shall be as binding on the
City as though that person had continued to be an officer of the City authorized to sign
bonds. Any Bond also may be signed on behalf of the City by any person who, on the
actual date of signing of the Bond, is an officer of the City authorized to sign bonds,
although he or she did not hold the required office on its Issue Date.
(b) Authentication. Only a Bond bearing a Certificate of Authentication in
substantially the following form, manually signed by the Bond Registrar, shall be valid or
obligatory for any purpose or entitled to the benefits of this ordinance: "Certificate Of
Authentication. This Bond is one of the fully registered City of Tukwila, Washington,
Local Improvement District No. 33 Bonds." The authorized signing of a Certificate of
Authentication shall be conclusive evidence that the Bond so authenticated has been
duly executed, authenticated and delivered and is entitled to the benefits of this
ordinance.
Section 7. Payment of Bonds. Principal of and interest on each Bond shall be
payable in lawful money of the United States of America solely out of the LID Bond
Fund or from the Local Improvement Guaranty Fund of the City. Principal of and
interest on each Bond registered in the name of the Securities Depository is payable in
the manner set forth in the Letter of Representations. Interest on each Bond not
registered in the name of the Securities Depository is payable by electronic transfer on
each Interest Payment Date, or by check or draft of the Bond Registrar mailed on such
Interest Payment Date to the Registered Owner at the address appearing on the Bond
Register on the Record Date. However, the City is not required to make electronic
transfers except pursuant to a request by a Registered Owner in writing received at
least ten days prior to the Record Date and at the sole expense of the Registered
Owner. Principal of each Bond not registered in the name of the Securities Depository
is payable upon presentation and surrender of the Bond by the Registered Owner to the
Bond Registrar. The Bonds are not subject to acceleration under any circumstances.
Section 8. Funds and Accounts.
(a) LID Bond Fund; Deposit of Assessments. The LID Bond Fund has been
previously created as a special fund of the City for the sole purpose of paying principal
of and interest on the Bonds. All collections pertaining to payments of assessments on
W: Word Processing \Ordinances \LID 33 -Bond issuance - strike -thru 10 -1 -13
VC:bjs
Page 7 of 13
251
the assessment roll of LID No. 33, including prepayments, installment payments, and
interest and penalties thereon, shall be deposited in the LID Bond Fund. Prior to the
Issue Date, any money on hand in the LID Bond Fund may be used to pay or reimburse
costs of the Project, may be transferred to the Guaranty Fund, or may be retained
therein for the payment of principal of or interest on the Bonds, as determined by the
Finance Officer. After the Issue Date, money on hand in the LID Bond Fund shall be
used solely to pay interest on the Bonds, to redeem a portion of the outstanding
principal amount of the Bonds in accordance with Section 9, or to pay for costs of
collecting delinquent assessments. Until needed for such purposes, the City may invest
money in the LID Bond Fund temporarily in any legal investment, and the investment
earnings shall be retained in the LID Bond Fund and used for the purposes of that fund.
(b) Project Fund; Deposit of. Bond Proceeds. The principal proceeds received
from the sale and delivery of each Series of the Bonds, which amounts are not needed
to fund the Guaranty Fund deposit described below, shall be paid into or allocated to the
Project Fund, and thereafter may be allocated or transferred to such other funds,
accounts, or subaccounts of the City as the Director of Finance may determine, in order
to pay or reimburse the City for all or part of the costs of the Project and to pay the costs
of issuance of the Bonds. Until needed for such purposes, the City may invest the
principal proceeds of the Bonds temporarily in any legal investment, and the investment
earnings shall be deposited in the LID Bond Fund. Earnings subject to a federal tax or
rebate requirement may be withdrawn from any such fund or account and used for
those tax or rebate purposes. Any proceeds of Bonds remaining in the Project Fund
after paying the costs of the Project, the costs of issuing the Bonds, and for the
purposes set forth in this section, or after the City Council has determined that the
expenditure of such bond proceeds for those purposes is no longer necessary or
appropriate, may be used to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds consistent with
applicable law.
(c) Guaranty Fund. On the Issue Date, proceeds of each Series of Bonds equal
to not more than 10% of the issue price of such Series shall be deposited into the
Guaranty Fund such that the balance in the Guaranty Fund equals not less than the
balance required to be maintained under this subsection. For so long as any of the
Bonds remain outstanding, the City shall take such actions as may be necessary,
consistent with Chapter 3.64 of the Tukwila Municipal Code, Chapter 35.54 RCW and
other applicable state law, to maintain such balance in the Guaranty Fund as the
Finance Officer determines, in her sole discretion, is reasonable. Interest and earnings
from the Local Improvement Guaranty Fund shall be retained within the Guaranty Fund.
The Finance Officer may establish subaccounts within the Guaranty Fund, from time to
time as the Finance Officer deems necessary or desirable for purposes of accounting
for the investment of money therein. Money in the Guaranty Fund shall be used solely
for the payment of bonds secured by such fund and as otherwise set forth in chapters
35.49 and 35.54 RCW and other applicable law.

Section 9. Maturity; Redemption Provisions and Purchase of Bonds.
(a) Maturity. All Bonds shall bear a maturity date that is two years after the final
and estimated redemption
date approved by the Designated Representative in accordance with Section 4.
(b) Redemption Provisions. The City shall call Bonds for redemption in whole or
in part in Authorized Denominations in the order set forth on the estimated redemption
schedule (which shall be set forth in the Bond Purchase Contract) on each Interest
Payment Date when there is money in the LID Bond Fund from assessment payments
(including principal, interest, and penalties thereon) and other money of the City
sufficient to pay the Bond (or portion thereof) so called over and above the amount
required for the payment of the interest payable on all unpaid Bonds on that Interest
Payment Date. Bonds shall be redeemed at a redemption price equal to the stated
principal amount to be redeemed plus interest accrued thereon to the redemption date.
(c) Selection of Bonds for Redemption; Partial Redemption. For so long as a
Bond is registered in the name of the Securities Depository, if less than all of the
principal amount of that Bond is to be redeemed, the Securities Depository shall select
the proportion of that Bond to be redeemed in accordance with the Letter of
Representations. If a Bond is not registered in the name of the Securities Depository,
the Bond Registrar shall select the proportion of that Bond to be redeemed randomly in
such manner as the Bond Registrar shall determine. All or a portion of the principal
amount of any Bond that is to be redeemed may be redeemed in any Authorized
Denomination. If less than all of the outstanding principal amount of any Bond is
redeemed, upon surrender of that Bond to the Bond Registrar, there shall be issued to
the Registered Owner, without charge, a new Bond, bearing the same Series, estimated
redemption date and interest rate, in the aggregate principal amount to remain
outstanding.
(d) Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption of each Bond registered in the
name of the Securities Depository shall be given in accordance with the Letter of
Representations. Notice of redemption of each other Bond, unless waived by the
Registered Owner, shall be given by the Bond Registrar not less than 15 nor more than
45 days prior to the date fixed for redemption by first -class mail, postage prepaid, to the
Registered Owner at the address appearing on the Bond Register on the Record Date.
The requirements of the preceding sentence shall be satisfied when notice has been
mailed as so provided, whether or not it is actually received by an Owner. In addition,
the redemption notice shall be mailed or sent electronically within the same period to
the MSRB (if required under the Undertaking), to each Rating Agency, and to such
other persons and with such additional information as the Finance Officer shall
determine, but these additional mailings shall not be a condition precedent to the
redemption of any Bond.
(e) Rescission of Redemption Notice. In the case of any redemption, the notice of
redemption may state that the City retains the right to rescind the redemption notice by
giving a notice of rescission to the affected Registered Owner(s) at any time on or prior
to the date fixed for redemption. Any notice of redemption that is so rescinded shall be
W: Word Processing \Ordinances \LID 33 -Bond issuance- strike -thru 10 -1 -13
VC:bjs
Page 9 of 13
253
of no effect, and each Bond for which a notice of redemption has been rescinded shall
remain outstanding.
(f) Effect of Redemption. Interest on the principal portion of each Bond called for
redemption shall cease to accrue on the date fixed for redemption, unless the notice of
redemption is rescinded as set forth above.
(g) Purchase of Bonds. The City reserves the right to purchase any or all of the
Bonds at any time at any price acceptable to the City plus accrued interest to the date of
purchase.
Section 10. Failure to Pay Bonds. If the principal of any Bond is not paid when
the Bond is properly presented at its maturity date or date fixed for redemption, the City
shall be obligated to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of that Bond at the
same rate provided in the Bond from and after its maturity or date fixed for redemption
until that Bond, both principal and interest, is paid in full or until sufficient money for its
payment in full is on deposit in the LID Bond Fund, or in a trust account established to
refund or defease the Bond, and the Bond has been called for payment by giving notice
of that call to the Registered Owner.
Section 11. Pledge of Assessment Payments. Assessments collected in LID No.
