MPWMD
transferred advances in the amount of $437,354 from the Water Sales Revenue
Account to the Carmel Area Wastewater District during this reporting
period. Advance payments are provided in
accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 5.5 (a) Payment of
Operation and Maintenance.
As
provided in the Water Purchase Agreement, the obligation of the District to
make disbursements is a special obligation of the District, payable solely from
net operating revenues of the project, monies in the Revenue Fund, and other
funds described in the Trust Agreement. In no event, will disbursements be payable
out of any funds or properties of the District other than such sources.
Interest
on Certificates
The
interest rate on the Series 1992 Certificates was set initially at 2.30 percent
per annum until December 16, 1992. On that date and weekly thereafter, so long
as the certificates are in the variable mode, the Remarketing Agent, Stone
& Youngberg, determines the rate of interest. Interest rates for this reporting period have
fluctuated between 0.85% and 1.40%.
On
June 7, 2000, the Reclamation Management Committee noted that the Capital
Interest Fund, used for payment of monthly interest on the outstanding
certificates would soon be exhausted.
The Committee discussed the use of water sales revenue to make future
interest payments. On July 3, 2000, the
Reclamation Technical Advisory Committee affirmed the use of water sales
revenue for bond interest payments when excess funds are available. No interest payments were made from the
Revenue Account maintained by the MPWMD during this reporting period. All interest payments were made by the Pebble
Beach Company due to the lack of sufficient funds in the Revenue Account. No principal payments were due during this
reporting period.
