City is pledged to such payments, and the Bonds shall constitute
a lien and charge upon such revenue prior and superior to any
other charges whatsoever, excluding Maintenance and Operation
Expense, except that the lien and charge upon such revenue for
the Bonds shall be on a parity with the lien and charge thereon
for the Outstanding Parity Bonds and any Future Parity Bonds
hereafter issued .
Section 8 . In the judgment of the City Council, the Reve-
nue and benefits to be derived from the operation and mainte-
nance of the Waterworks Utility of the City, at the rates to be
charged for water and sanitary sewage disposal service on the
entire utility, will be more than sufficient to meet all Mainte-
nance and Operation Expense and the debt service requirements of
the Outstanding Parity Bonds and to permit the setting aside in
the Bond Fund, out of the revenue of the entire utility, of
amounts sufficient to pay the interest on the Bonds as such
- 18 -
,
interest become payable and to pay and redeem all of the Bonds
'
at maturity. The City Council further declares that in creating
' , the Bond Fund and infixing the amounts to be paid into the
same, as aforesaid, it has exercised due regard for the Mainte-
I nance and Operation Expense and the debt service requirements of
the presently Outstanding Parity Bonds and the City has not
bound and obligated iJtself to set aside and pay into the Bond
Fund a greater amount or proportion of the revenue of such util-
ity than in the judgment of the City Council will be available
over and above such Maintenance and Operation Expense and debt
service requirements iof the Outstanding Parity Bonds and that no
,
! portion of the Revenue of the Waterworks Utility of the City has
been previously pledgled for any other unrefunded indebtedness,
except for the payment of the presently Outstanding Parity Bonds :
, Section 9 . The City covenants and agrees with the owner
and holder of each Bond at any time outstanding as follows:
(a) It will establish, maintain and collect such
rates and charges for water and sanitary sewage dis-
posal service sollong as any Outstanding Parity Bonds
and Bonds are outstanding as will make available for
the payment of the principal of and interest on such

average annual debt service requirements, both prin-
cipal and interest, on the Outstanding Parity Bonds
and the Bonds after deducting costs of maintenance and
operation from the Revenue of the Waterworks Utility
of the City. "Average annual debt service require-
ments" shall mean _the aggregate amount of principal
and interest payable in each year over the remaining
life of such Outstanding Parity Bonds and Bonds
divided by the number of maturity years remaining to
the last maturity of the longest maturing issue, being
the year 1999 .

sufficient to meet all Maintenance and Operation Expense (and cost
of maintenance and operation of the Waterworks Utility as that term
is used in RCW 35.92. 100) and the debt service requirements of the
Outstanding Parity Bonds and to permit the setting aside in the

Account. So long as Bonds are outstanding against the Bond Fund,

(a) Set aside and pay into the Principal and
Interest Account out of the Revenue of the Waterworks

until the Bonds, both principal and interest,
r are paid, 1/6 of the next ensuing six months'
requirements for interest on the Bonds; and

1999, and continuing thereafter until the
Bonds, both principal and interest, are paid,
1/12 of the amount of principal of the Bonds

in addition to or in lieu of using revenue therefor.
The City further agrees that when the required amounts have
been paid into the Reserve Account in the Bond Fund, the City will

0147650.02
-16-
ORDINANCE NO. 4480
principal of and interest to maturity on all outstanding Bonds, at

the money in the Bond Fund, including the Reserve Account,, may be
used to pay that principal and interest.
If there shall be a deficiency in the Principal and Interest
Account to meet maturing installments of either principal or
interest, as the case may be, on the Bonds, the deficiency shall be
made up from the Reserve Account by the withdrawal of cash
therefrom for that purpose. Any deficiency created in the Reserve
Account by reason of any withdrawal shall then be made up from the
Revenue of the Waterworks Utility first available after making
necessary provisions for the required payments into the Principal
and Interest Account.

payments of principal and interest when due may be kept on deposit
in the official bank depository of the City or in any national bank
or may be invested in any legal investment for City funds maturing
not later than the interest or principal and interest payment date
when the money will be needed. Interest on any of those
investments or on that bank account shall be deposited in and
become a part of the Reserve Account until the total required
reserve amount shall have been accumulated therein, after which
time the interest shall be deposited in the Principal and Interest
Account.

0147650.02
-17-
ORDINANCE NO. 4480
subject to a federal tax or rebate requirement may be withdrawn

that purpose.

the amounts set forth ;above, the owner. of any of the outstanding
Bonds may bring an action against the City to compel that setting

that the lien and charge on such revenue for the Bonds shall be on
a parity with the lien and charge thereon for the Outstanding
Parity Bonds and any Future Parity Bonds.
SECTION XIII. Findings Regarding Sufficiency of Revenue. In
the judgment of the City Council, the Revenue of the Waterworks
Utility and benefits to be derived from the operation and
maintenance of the Waterworks Utility, at the rates to be charged
for water, sanitary sewage disposal service and storm and surface
water drainage service in the entire utility, will be more than
sufficient to meet all Maintenance and Operation Expense (and cost
of maintenance and operation of the Waterworks Utility as that term
is used in RCW 35. 92 . 100) and the debt service requirements of the
Outstanding Parity Bonds and to permit the setting aside in the
Bond Fund, out of the revenue of the entire utility, of amounts
sufficient to pay the interest on the Bonds as that interest
becomes payable and to pay and redeem all of the Bonds at maturity.
The City Council further declares that in creating the Bond Fund
0147650.02
-19-
i , .
lr
ORDINANCE NO. 4480
and in fixing the amounts to be paid into the same, as aforesaid,
it has exercised due regard for the Maintenance and Operation
Expense (and costs of maintenance and operation as used in RCW
35.92. 100) and the debt service requirements of the presently
outstanding Outstanding Parity Bonds, and the City has not bound
and obligated itself to set aside and pay into the Bond Fund a
greater amount or proportion of the revenue of that utility than in
the judgment of the City Council will be available over and above
Maintenance and Operation Expense (and such costs of maintenance
and operation) and debt service requirements of the Outstanding
Parity Bonds and that no portion of the Revenue of the Waterworks
Utility has been previously pledged for any unrefunded indebtedness
other than the payment of the presently outstanding Outstanding
Parity Bonds.
SECTION XIV. Covenants. The City covenants and agrees with
the owner of each Bond at any time outstanding as follows:
(a) It will establish, maintain and collect such
rates and charges for water, sanitary sewage disposal
service and storm and surface water drainage service so
long as any Outstanding Parity Bonds and Bonds are
outstanding as will make available for the payment of the
principal of and interest on such bonds an amount equal
to at least 1.3 times the average annual debt service
requirements, both principal and interest, on the
Outstanding Parity Bonds and the Bonds after deducting
Maintenance and Operation Expense from the Revenue of the
Waterworks Utility.
(b) It will at all times maintain andkeep the
Waterworks Utility in good repair, working order and
condition and also will at all times operate such Utility
and the business in connection therewith in an efficient
manner and at a reasonable cost.

use of money on deposit in the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund as long as the money remaining
in those.funds is sufficient to satisfy the required deposits in those funds for the remaining Parity
Bonds.

official bank depository of the City or in any national bank or may be invested in any legal
investment for City funds. Interest on any of those investments or on that bank account shall be
deposited in the Reserve Fund until the total Reserve Requirement shall have been accumulated
therein, after which time the interest shall be deposited in any Parity Bond Fund.
Notwithstanding the provisions for the deposit or maintenance of earnings in the Bond
Fund or the Reserve Fund, any earnings which are subject to a federal tax or rebate requirement
may be withdrawn from the Bond Fund or the Reserve Fund for deposit into a separate fund or
account for that purpose.

(2003-2008) to consider the annual update of the Six-Year Transportation Improvement
Program(TIP), 2003 -2008.
Transportation Systems Director Sandra Meyer stated that one of the City's

purpose of the TIP and reviewed the City's transportation goals which include
developing a balanced multi-modal transportation system,maximizing the use
of transit,improving freight mobility,obtaining project and program funding,
and protecting the environment. He stated that transportation projects are
placed in five categories within the TIP,and he detailed the transportation
challenges and opportunities the City faces which include: SW 27th
St./Strander Blvd.Extension,NE 3rd and 4th Streets Corridor Study, SR-169
(Maple Valley Hwy.)HOV and Queue Jump Improvements, and Duvall Ave.
NE Improvements.
Continuing,Mr. Afzali described the various funding sources for the
transportation projects, saying that the total expenditure plan over the next six

ADMINISTRATIVE Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington reviewed a written administrative
REPORT report summarizing the City's recent progress towards goals and work
programs adopted as part of its business plan for 2002 and beyond. Items noted
included:
* Picnic Pizzazz, a creative kids entertainment series,provides free
entertainment at local parks. First in the series is Rhinestone Roper, which
will be held in Liberty Park at noon on Thursday,July 11th.
* Seattle Public Utilities has informed the City that they are moving forward
with the pre-design of electrically-operated water isolation valves to be
installed at the west end of Renton(such valves could be closed in case of a
pipeline failure and help prevent water damage in Renton). The project
will take two years, and the valves are scheduled to be installed by
December 2004. However, this assumes that Seattle City Council will pass
the proposed water rate increase—if not, all Seattle Capital Improvement
projects will be re-evaluated,including this one.

and compliments the downtown Renton improvements; the parish draws people
to Renton and they patronize local businesses; and the vacation will create a
safe environment for children and others who use St. Anthony's facilities.
Additional comments indicated that the vacation will create.a unified campus in
downtown Renton which is beneficial to the City, will improve the
neighborhood parking problems by removing cars from the streets,would not
impact the entry and exit from the neighborhood, and would increase children's
safety. Speakers also requested that Council make a decision on the matter as
soon as possible.
Responding to Councilman Corman's inquiry regarding the project status,
Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler explained that the Planning&Development
Committee is waiting for a report from staff and then will determine if the issue
will remain in Planning&Development Committee or be referred to

Table at Council Meeting of THE RULES AND TAKE FROM THE TABLE RECONSIDERATION OF
June 24, 2002 THE ORDINANCE ADDING THE POSITIONS OF CRIME ANALYST,
EVIDENCE TECHNICIAN AND A COMMISSIONED OFFICER TO THE
POLICE DEPARTMENT,AND A SECRETARY 1 TO THE FIRE •
DEPARTMENT(LAID ON THE TABLE AT THE JUNE 24, 2002,
COUNCIL MEETING). CARRIED.
Budget: 2002 Amendment, Councilman Parker conducted a presentation,prepared with the assistance of
Additional Police&Fire City staff and Councilman Corman, in support of the Public Safety Committee
Department Positions minority report presented at the June 10th Council meeting,recommending that
Council authorize the addition of the crime analyst and evidence technician
positions to the Police Department. He explained that this issue is being
discussed tonight due to the Mayor's veto of the above stated ordinance
submitted at the June 24th Council meeting. Stating that five positions have
been added in 2002: two police officers, two school resource officers and an
animal control officer,Mr. Parker detailed the staffing history of the Police
Department as well as commissioned officer growth since 1998.
Mr. Parker reviewed the duties and responsibilities of the Police Chief. He
stated that the remaining 2002 staffing priorities are the addition of the
evidence technician and crime analyst positions, and explained why these
positions are important and how they will benefit the Police Department. Mr.
Parker discussed the response times for calls for police service, class one
crimes, the number of officers per 1,000 of population, minimum and maximum
patrol staffing,and how Renton compares with other jurisdictions in these
categories. In addition,he listed the types of calls that merit an emergency or
priority-one response,pointing out that emergency response calls, which are a
part of priority-one calls, are responded to in less than one minute.
Continuing,Mr. Parker reviewed Renton's financial situation, and noted that it
is not a good time to add more positions in addition to the analyst and
technician positions,due to the slowing economy and declining revenues.
Stating that public safety is important, he pointed out that facilities and
amenities such as the Farmers Market,Performing Arts Center, Skate Park and
swimming pool all contribute towards public safety. In addition,Mr. Parker
indicated that the City's budget policies which state that: ongoing operations
shall be funded from ongoing revenue, operating revenue and expenditures
shall be monitored and adjusted if necessary to ensure expenditures do not
exceed revenues over time, and revenue shall be conservatively projected, are a
guideline that the City should adhere to.

Mr. Parker stated that everyone agrees that public safety is the number one
ongoing priority, and-he reiterated that public safety is more than police on the
streets; it includes developing an infrastructure than enables them to do their
work. Public safety also includes code enforcement, nuisance abatement,
zoning, police support staff, tools, training and technology. He commented that
in this economy the City must remain true to its priorities and budget policies,
and the additional police positions will strengthen the support system for the
officers to help them become even more efficient and effective. In conclusion,
Mr. Parker urged Council to strengthen the Police Department at its foundation
and follow the recommendation of the Police Chief by adding the evidence
technician and crime analyst positions.
Councilman Corman emphasized that a holistic approach to public safety is
important.
Responding to Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler's question regarding the
electronic home detention program,Finance&Information Systems
Administrator Victoria Runkle stated that revenue generated by the program is
approximately$150,000 per year and the cost of the electronic home detention
coordinator is$65,000 to$70,000 annually.
Responding to Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler's questions regarding the patrol
officers and school resource officers,Police Chief Garry Anderson stated that
eight commissioned officers had been added to the Police Department since
1998,not all of them to the patrol division. He discussed the staffing level
figures and determined that there are currently 53 patrol officers assigned to the
patrol operation division. Chief Anderson noted that school resource officers
are assigned to administrative services and not to patrol operations.'
Chief Anderson explained that of the Police Department's four school resource
officers, two are employed by the City of Renton and two are funded by a three-
year grant from the Department of Justice(75%)and from the Renton School
District(25%). Stating that the school resource officers are not restricted from
responding to non-school related calls,he described the types of calls they
respond to. Chief Anderson indicated that they serve a school population of
approximately 13,000 students and play an important role in crime prevention.
He noted that the school resource officer's calls for service are included along
with patrol officer's calls for service in the International City Managers
Association(ICMA)calls for service formula.
In regards to Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler's inquiries about crime statistics
and how Renton compares with other cities,Police Chief Anderson reviewed
the statistics and explained that if a crime analyst were hired, that person would
analyze the crime statistics to determine how present resources can be used in
the most effective way possible. He said that the City would be proactive,
instead of reactive, and use the information already gathered to better patrol the
streets of Renton. Chief Anderson agreed that more patrol officers are needed,
as well as other City positions, and stated that there is a plan in place that
prioritizes the needs of the Police Department with current priority being the
hiring of the evidence technician and crime analyst.
Responding to Councilman Clawson's inquiry regarding the cost of a Fire
Department Secretary 1 position,Ms. Runkle stated that it would cost
approximately$43,000 annually, and pointed out that the cost could be
July 1,2002 Renton City Council Minutes Page 261
absorbed in 2002 through department savings; however, the position would
probably need to be funded by new money in 2003.
Responding to Councilman Clawson's question regarding the budget surplus
forecast, Chief Administrative Officer Jay Covington stated that a surplus was
predicted for 2003, and budget deficits predicted for 2004,2005 and 2006.
Councilman Clawson commented that more discussion is needed regarding one-
time money and why it cannot be used for essential services. Councilman
Parker said that investing one-time money into capital projects does return the
money to the community in some form of services.
Discussion ensued regarding one-time revenues, the use of five-year averages in
budget planning, and Council budget policies.
Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler brought up the subject of the proposed fund
balance recommendations made in March and the proposal that money be
borrowed to finance the Pavilion Building,Parks Maintenance Facility,
Veterans Memorial Park and swimming pool resulting in debt service over a
period of twenty years. She questioned why money was available to pay for
debt service at that time, and now is unavailable to fund the requested positions.
Council discussion ensued concerning the debt service, operational costs for the
facilities,the need for a Parks Maintenance Facility, and additional funding
options available to fund the requested positions.
Moved by Corman, seconded by Nelson, Council call for the question on the
motion to reconsider adoption of the ordinance adding the positions of Crime
Analyst,Evidence Technician and a Commissioned Officer to the Police
Department and a Secretary 1 to the Fire Department.*
Councilwoman Keolker-Wheeler suggested waiting to see if there are
comments from citizens regarding staffing at the upcoming 2003 Budget public
hearing scheduled for July 8th. Stating that Committee of the Whole will be
presented with revenue figures for the first half of 2002 at its July 22nd
meeting,Ms. Keolker-Wheeler indicated that she would also like to know how
many non-school related calls the school resource officers respond to, and the
costs of the four proposed positions. She recommended delaying a decision on
this item until more information is provided.
Council President Nelson stated that the call for the question should be
enforced, and the matter should be discussed again during budget deliberations.
*Motion and second withdrawn.

This letter sets forth our understanding with respect to certain matters relating to the

to the Securities. The Securities have been issued pursuant to a trust indenture,bond resolution, or
other such document authorizing the issuance of the Securities dated July 1,2002
(the"Document"). D.A.Davidson&Co. is distributing the Securities
["Underwriter"]

To induce DTC to accept the Securities as eligible for deposit at DTC, and to act in
accordance with its Rules with respect to the Securities,Issuer and Agent,if any,make the following
•

shall be deposited with DTC one or more Security certificates registered in the name of DTC's
nominee, Cede & Co., for each stated maturity of the Securities in the face amounts set forth on
Schedule A hereto,the total of which represents 100% of the principal amount of such Securities.
If, however,the aggregate principal amount of any maturity exceeds $400 million, one certificate
shall be issued with respect to each$400 million of principal amount and an additional certificate
shall be issued with respect to any, remaining principal amount. Each Security certificate shall bear
the following legend:
Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized representative of The
Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation("DTC"),to Issuer or its agent
for registration of transfer, exchange, or payment, and any certificate issued is
registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an
authorized representative of DTC(and any payment is made to Cede&Co. or to such
other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY
TRANSFER, PLEDGE, OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR
OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL inasmuch as the
registered owner hereof, Cede&Co.,has an interest herein.
Issuer represents: [Note: Issuer must represent one of the following, and shall cross out the
other.]
[The Security certificate(s) shall remain in Agent's custody as a"Balance Certificate"subject
to the provisions of the Balance,Certificate Agreement between Agent and DTC currently in effect.

originated by a DTC participant ("Participant") through DTC's Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian
("DWAC") system to increase the Participant's account by a specified number of Securities (a
"Deposit Instruction"),Agent shall,no later than 6:30 p.m. (Eastern Time)that day, either approve
or cancel the Deposit Instruction through the DWAC system.
On each day on which Agent is open for business and on which it receives an instruction
originated by a Participant through the DWAC system to decrease the Participant's account by a
specified number of Securities (a"Withdrawal Instruction"), Agent shall, no later than 6:30 p.m.
(Eastern Time) that day, either approve or cancel the Withdrawal Instruction through the DWAC
system.
Agent agrees that its approval of a Deposit or Withdrawal Instruction shall be deemed to be
the receipt by DTC of a new reissued or reregistered certificated Security on registration of transfer
to the name of Cede&Co. for the quantity of Securities evidenced by the Balance Certificate after
the Deposit or Withdrawal Instruction is effected.]

SCHEDULE B
SAMPLE OFFICIAL STATEMENT LANGUAGE
DESCRIBING BOOK-ENTRY-ONLY ISSUANCE
(Prepared by DTC--bracketed material may be applicable only to certain issues)
1. The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, NY, will act as securities
depository for the securities (the "Securities"). The Securities will be issued as fully-registered
securities registered in the name of Cede& Co. (DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name
as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered Security
certificate will be issued for[each issue of] the Securities, [each] in the aggregate principal amount
of such issue,and will be deposited with DTC. [If,however,the aggregate principal amount of[any]
issue exceeds $400 million, one certificate will be issued with respect to each $400 million of
principal amount and an additional certificate will be issued with respect to any remaining principal
amount of such issue.]
2. DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking
Law,a"banking organization"within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the
Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform
Commercial Code, and a"clearing agency"registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds securities that its participants ("Direct
Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among Direct Participants of
securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic
computerized book-entry changes in Direct Participants' accounts,thereby eliminating the need for
physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include securities brokers and
dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is
owned by a number of its Direct Participants and by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the
American Stock Exchange LLC, and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Access to
the DTC system is also available to others such as securities brokers and dealers, banks, and trust
companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either
directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). The Rules applicable to DTC and its Direct and •
Indirect Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
3. Purchases of Securities under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct
Participants,which will.receive a credit for the Securities on DTC's records. The ownership interest
of each actual purchaser of each Security("Beneficial Owner")is in turn to be recorded on the Direct
and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from
DTC of their purchase, but Beneficial Owners are expected to receive written confirmations
providing details of the transaction,as well as periodic statements of their holdings,from the Direct
or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers
of ownership interests in the Securities are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of
Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not
receive certificates representing their ownership interests in Securities, except in the event that use
of the book-entry system for the Securities is discontinued.
-10-
mbnd1319-7/99
4. To facilitate subsequent transfers,all Securities deposited by Direct Participants with
DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede &Co. or such other name as
may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Securities with DTC and
their registration in the name of Cede & Co. or such other nominee do not effect any change in
beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Securities;
DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Securities
are credited,which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants
will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
5. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants,by
Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to
Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or
regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. [Beneficial Owners of Securities may
wish to take certain steps to augment transmission to them of notices of significant events with
respect to the Securities, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the
security documents. Beneficial Owners of Securities may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding
the Securities for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners, or in
the alternative,Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and
request that copies of the notices be provided directly to them.]
[6. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Securities within an
issue are being redeemed,DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each
Direct Participant in such issue to be redeemed.]
7. Neither DTC nor Cede& Co. (nor such other DTC nominee) will consent or vote
with respect to the Securities. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to Issuer
as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede&Co.'s consenting or
voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the Securities are credited on the record
date(identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
8. Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments on the Securities will be
made to Cede&Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of
DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts, upon DTC's receipt of funds and
corresponding detail information from Issuer or Agent on payable date in accordance with their
respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will
be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for
the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in"street name," and will be the responsibility
of such Participant and not of DTC, Agent, or Issuer, subject to any statutory or regulatory
requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds, distributions,
and dividends to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized
representative of DTC) is the responsibility of Issuer or Agent, disbursement of such payments to
Direct Participants shall be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the
Beneficial Owners shall be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.
-11-
mbnd1319-7/99
[9. A Beneficial Owner shall give notice to elect to have its Securities purchased or
tendered,through its Participant,to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent, and shall effect delivery of such
Securities by causing the Direct Participant to transfer the Participant's interest in the Securities, on
DTC's records,to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent. The requirement for physical delivery of Securities
in connection with an optional tender or a mandatory purchase will be deemed satisfied when the
ownership rights in the Securities are transferred by Direct Participants on DTC's records and
followed by a book-entry credit of tendered Securities to [Tender/Remarketing] Agent's DTC
account.]
10. DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to
the Securities at any time by giving reasonable notice to Issuer or Agent. Under such circumstances,
in the event that a successor securities depository is not obtained, Security certificates are required
to be printed and delivered.
11. Issuer may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through
DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, Security certificates will be printed and
delivered.
12. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has
been obtained from sources that Issuer believes to be reliable,but Issuer takes no responsibility for
the accuracy thereof.

SUMMARY STATEMENT
The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the detailed information appearing elsewhere in
this Official Statement. No person is authorized to detach this Summary Statement from this Official Statement or
to otherwise use it without this entire Official Statement.
ISSUER The City of Renton(the"City")is located approximately 20 miles southeast of
the City of Seattle and approximately 60 miles northeast of the City of
Olympia,the State's capital. The City had a population of 51,140 as estimated
in 2001 by the State of Washington (the "State") Office of Financial
Management. (See"The City of Renton"herein.)
INTEREST AND
REDEMPTION Interest on the Bonds is payable semi-annually on each June 1 and December
1,commencing December 1,2002 to their maturity or prior redemption. (See
"The Bonds - Description of the Bonds" herein.) The Bonds are subject to
optional redemption. (See"The Bonds-Redemption"herein.)
AUTHORITY
FOR ISSUANCE The Bonds will be issued in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution
and the laws of the State,particularly chapters 35.41,35.67 and 39.46 Revised
Code of Washington("RCW"),and pursuant to Ordinance of the City,
adopted on July 1,2002(the"Ordinance"). (See"The Bonds_Authorization"
herein.)
SOURCE OF
REPAYMENT The Bonds are special fund revenue obligations of the City. The Gross
Revenue of the City's combined water and sewerage systems, including the
storm and surface water sewers (the"Waterworks Utility")is pledged to the
payment into the 2002 Waterworks Revenue Bond Account(the"Bond Fund")
of amounts necessary to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds. The
Bonds constitute a lien and charge on the Gross Revenue prior and superior to
any other charges whatsoever, excluding Maintenance and Operations
Expense, except that the lien and charge on such revenue for the Bonds shall
be on a parity with the lien and charge thereon for the Outstanding Parity
Bonds (hereinafter defined), the outstanding Water and Sewer Revenue
Refunding Bonds, 1998 and any Future Parity Bonds. The City will maintain
a Reserve Account for the sole purpose of providing additional security for the
Bonds if Revenue is not sufficient to pay debt service when due. (See"The
Bonds- Security"herein.)
USE OF
PROCEEDS The proceeds of the Bonds will be used to undertake certain capital
improvements to the Waterworks Utility and to pay costs related to the
issuance and sale of the Bonds(the"Project"). (See"The Bonds-Purpose and
Use of Proceeds"herein.)
* Preliminary;subject to change.

THE BONDS
Description of the Bonds
The Bonds will be issued in the aggregate amount of$12,150,000* in fully registered form, will be in the
denomination of$5,000 each or any integral multiples thereof within a single maturity and will be dated July
1, 2002. The Bonds shall mature on December 1, in the years and amounts set forth on the cover hereof.
The fiscal agent of the State,currently The Bank of New York,New York,New York,will serve as registrar,
paying agent and transfer agent(the"Registrar") for the Bonds.
The Bonds will bear interest from July 1,2002,or the most recent interest payment date to which interest has
been paid or duly provided for, whichever is later, at the rates per annum set forth on the cover hereof.
Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, and will be
payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1,commencing December 1,2002,until the date ofmaturity
or the date of prior redemption of such Bond,whichever occurs first. For so long as the Bonds are held by
DTC in book-entry form,principal and interest payments will be made as described herein under the heading
"The Bonds -Book-Entry System".
Redemption
Optional Redemption: Bonds maturing in the years 2003 through 2012, inclusive, are not subject to
redemption prior to their stated maturity dates. Bonds maturing on or after December 1,2014 are subject to
redemption at the option of the City prior to their stated maturity dates, from funds from any source,at any
time,in whole or in part on or after December 1,2012 within one or more maturities selected by the City(by
lot in the manner determined by the Registrar or DTC)at the price of par plus interest accrued to the date of
redemption.
Bonds in the principal amount of greater than $5,000 may be partially redeemed in part in any integral
multiple of$5,000. The Registered Owner of any Bond redeemed in part shall receive,upon surrender of
such Bond to the Registrar,one or more new Bonds in authorized denominations equal in principal amount
to the unredeemed portion of the Bond so surrendered.
Notice of Redemption (DTC). So long as the Bonds are in book-entry only form,the Registrar shall notify
DTC of an early redemption in accordance with, and shall provide such information as required by, the
blanket issuer letter of representations from the City and the Registrar to DTC. See "The Bonds -Book-
Entry System"below for a discussion of how redemption notices will be given by DTC to the beneficial
owners of the Bonds. The City cannot and does not give any assurances that DTC,its direct participants or
others will distribute any redemption notices to the beneficial owners or that they will do so on a timely
basis. From and after the date that the Bonds are no longer held in book-entry form,notice of redemption
must be given by or on behalf of the City not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the date of
redemption in accordance with the Ordinance.
Pursuant to the City's continuing disclosure undertaking, the City is required to provide timely notice of
redemption of the Bonds to each NRMSIR (or MSRB) and to any SID. See "Commitment to Provide
Continuing Disclosure" herein for definitions of the terms "NRMSIR," "MSRB" and "SID" and a
description of the City's undertaking to provide certain notices.
+ Preliminary;subject to change.
2
Failure to Redeem Bonds. When so called for redemption,such Bonds shall cease to accrue interest on the
specified redemption date provided funds for redemption are on deposit at either of the principal corporate
trust offices of the Registrar at that time. Bonds called for redemption shall not be deemed to be outstanding
as of such redemption date provided funds for redemption are on deposit with the Registrar at such time.
Open Market Purchase of the Bonds
The City has reserved the right to purchase any of the Bonds in the open market at any time and at any price.
Book-Entry Form
When the Bonds are issued, ownership interest will be available to purchasers only through a book-entry
system(the"Book-Entry System")maintained by DTC or such other depository institution designated by the
City pursuant to the Ordinance. If the Bonds are removed from the Book-Entry System and delivered to the
- ` persons named as the registered owners of the Bonds on the registration records maintained by the Registrar
(the"Registered Owners")in physical form, as described below, the discussion herein of the Book-Entry
System will not apply. The following information has been provided by DTC, and the City makes no
representation as to the accuracy or completeness thereof.
1. The Depository Trust Company("DTC"),New York,NY,will act as securities depository for the
Bonds. The Bonds will be issued as fully registered securities registered in the name of Cede&Co.
(DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name as may be.requested by an authorized
representative of DTC. One fully registered bond certificate will be issued for each maturity of the
Bonds, each in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity, and will be deposited with DTC.
2. DTC,the world's largest depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New
York Banking Law,a"banking organization"within the meaning of the New York Banking Law,a
member of the Federal Reserve System, a"clearing corporation"within the meaning of the New
York Uniform Commercial Code, and a"clearing agency"registered pursuant to the provisions of
Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for
over 2 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and
money market instruments from over 85 countries that DTC's participants("Direct Participants")
deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales
and other securities transactions in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry
transfers and pledges between Direct Participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for physical
movement of securities certificates. "Direct Participants"include both U.S.and non-U.S. securities
brokers and dealers,banks,trust companies,clearing corporations,and certain other organizations.
DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust& Clearing Corporations ("DTCC").
DTCC,in turn, is owned by a number of Direct Participants of DTC and Members of the National
Securities Clearing Corporation, Government Securities Clearing Corporation, MBS Clearing
Corporation, and Emerging Markets Clearing Corporation, (NSCC, GSCC,MBSCC, and EMCC,
also subsidiaries of DTCC), as well as by the New York Stock Exchange,Inc.,the American Stock
Exchange,Inc., and the National Association of Securities Dealers,Inc. Access to the DTC system
is also available to others,such as U.S.and non-U.S.securities brokers and dealers,banks,and trust
companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a
Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). DTC has Standard and
3
Poor's highest rating: AAA. The DTC rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at
www.dtcc.com.
3. Purchases of Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants,which >
will receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual
purchaser of each Bond ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect
Participants' records. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmation
from DTC of their purchase,but Beneficial Owners are expected to receive written confirmations
providing details of the transaction,as well as periodic statements of their holdings,from the Direct
or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of
ownership interests in the Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct or
Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive
certificates representing their ownership interests in Bonds,except in the event that use of the book-
entry system for the Bonds is discontinued.
4. To facilitate subsequent transfers,all Bonds deposited by Participants with DTC are registered in the
• name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an
authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name
of Cede&Co.,or such other DTC nominee,do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC
has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Bonds; DTC's records reflect only the
identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Bonds are credited,which may or may not
be the Beneficial Owners. The Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their
holdings on behalf of their customers.
5. Conveyances of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct
Participants to Indirect Participants,and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial !,
Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory
requirements as may be in effect from time to time.
6. Redemption notices, if any, shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within an issue are
being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct
Participant in such issue to be redeemed.
7. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor such other DTC nominee),will consent or vote with respect to
Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's Procedures. Under its -
usual procedures,DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the City as soon as possible after the record date.
The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede&Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to
whose accounts Bonds are credited on the record date(identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus
Proxy).
8. Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments on the Bonds will be made to Cede&
Co., or such other nominee as may be requested,by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's
practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts,upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding
detail information from the City on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown
on DTC's records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing
instructions and customary practices,as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers
in bearer form or registered in"street name,"and will be the responsibility of such Participant and
4
not of DTC or the City,subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as maybe in effect from
time to time.Payment of redemption proceeds,distributions,and dividend payments to Cede&Co.
(or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the
responsibility of the City, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants shall be the
responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to Beneficial Owners shall be the
responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.
9. DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the Bonds at any
time by giving reasonable notice to the City. Under such circumstances,in the event that a successor
securities depository is not obtained,Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered.
10. The City may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC (or a
successor securities depository). In that event,Bond certificates will be printed and delivered.
11. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained
from sources that the City believes to be reliable,but the City takes no responsibility for the accuracy
thereof.
Transfer and Exchange of Bonds Upon Discontinuance of Book-Entry System
So long as the Bonds are in book-entry only form, the beneficial ownership of the Bonds may only be
transferred in the records established and maintained by DTC. Upon discontinuance of the book-entry
system,the Bonds may be transferred by Registered Owners upon completion of the assignment form on the
Bond(s)in form and substance satisfactory to the Registrar and delivery of the Bond(s)to be transferred to
the principal corporate trust office of the Registrar for cancellation and re-issuance. Upon such surrender,
the Registrar will cancel the surrendered Bonds and deliver to the new Registered Owner a new Bond or
Bonds of the same maturity and interest rate and for the same aggregate principal amount. Upon
discontinuance of the book-entry system,any Bond may be surrendered at the principal corporate trust office
of the Registrar and exchanged,without charge, for an equal aggregate principal amount of Bonds, in any
authorized denomination. The Registrar is not required to transfer or exchange Bonds during the 15 days
preceding any principal or interest payment or optional redemption date.
•Authorization
The Bonds are special obligations of the City issued pursuant to the provisions of the Constitution and laws
of the State of Washington,particularly chapters 35.41,35.67 and 39.46 RCW and to Ordinance No.

Security
Revenue Pledge. In the Ordinance,the Revenue of the Waterworks Utility is pledged to the payment into
the 2002 Waterworks Revenue Bond Account(the"Bond Fund")in amounts necessary to pay the principal
of and interest on the Bonds. The Bonds are payable solely out of the Bond Fund. The Bonds constitute a
lien and charge on the Gross Revenue prior and superior to any other charges whatsoever, excluding
Maintenance and Operations Expense,except that the lien and charge on such revenue for the Bonds shall be
on a parity with the lien and charge thereon for the Outstanding Parity Bonds, the 1998 Bonds and any
Future Parity Bonds. See"The Waterworks Utility-Schedule of Waterworks Utility Debt Service"). As of
the date of issuance of the Bonds, the City did not have any outstanding subordinate or junior lien
obligations.
As used herein, "Revenue of the Waterworks Utility"means all the earnings and revenue received by the
Waterworks Utility from any source whatsoever, including payments received under contract with other
municipal corporations for water service,except general taxes,charges in lieu of taxes, assessments in any
utility local improvement district hereafter created,proceeds from the sale of City property,bond proceeds
and earnings subject to a federal tax or rebate requirement.
As used herein,"Maintenance and Operation Expense"means all expenses incurred by the City in causing
the Waterworks Utility to be operated and maintained in good repair,working order and condition,which
shall not include any depreciation expenses or taxes or charges in lieu of taxes levied or imposed by the City.
The Bonds are not general obligations of the City,and the full faith,credit and resources of the City
are not pledged for the payment thereof.
See Appendix A hereto for a description of the revenue pledge for the Bonds after the New Covenant Date.
Rate Covenant. The City has covenanted in the Ordinance that it will establish,maintain and collect such
rates and charges for water,sanitary sewage disposal service and storm and surface water drainage service so
long as any Outstanding Parity Bonds, 1998 Bonds and Bonds are outstanding as will make available for the
payment of the principal of and interest on such bonds an amount equal to at least 1.3 times the average
annual debt service requirements, both principal and interest, on the Outstanding Parity Bonds, the 1998
Bonds and the Bonds after deducting Maintenance and Operation Expense from Gross Revenue. See
Appendix A hereto under the caption"Summary of Certain Provisions of the Ordinance"for a description of
the rate covenant for the Bonds after the New Covenant Date.-
6
Flow of Funds. A special fund of the City(the"Waterworks Utility Fund"),has previously been created
pursuant to Ordinance No. 250. All Revenue of the Waterworks Utility shall be deposited into the
Waterworks Utility Fund as collected,and shall be held separate and apart from all other funds and accounts
of the City. Funds in the Waterworks Utility Fund (other than in any bond redemption or federal rebate
account will be used in the following order of priority:
(1) to pay Maintenance and Operation Expense;
(2) to pay interest on the Outstanding Parity Bonds and Parity Bonds;
(3) to pay the principal of the Outstanding Parity Bonds and Parity Bonds:
(4) to make all payments required to be made into any sinking fund or bond redemption
fund created for the payment of Future Parity Bonds which are Term Bonds:
(5) to make all payments required to be made into the reserve accounts created to secure
the payment of the Outstanding Parity Bonds and Parity Bonds;
(6) to make all payments required to be made into any revenue bond redemption fund,
revenue warrant redemption fund,debt service account or reserve account created to
pay and secure the payment of the principal of and interest on any other revenue
bonds or revenue warrants having a lien upon the Revenue of the Waterworks Utility
junior and inferior to the lien thereon for the payment of the principal of and interest
on the Outstanding Parity Bonds and Parity Bonds;
(7) to retire by optional redemption or purchase in the open market any outstanding
revenue bonds or revenue warrants of the City, to make necessary additions,
betterments, improvements and repairs to or extensions and replacements of the
Waterworks Utility, or for any other lawful City purpose.
See Appendix A hereto under the caption "Summary of Certain Provisions of the Ordinance" for a
description of the"Flow of Funds" after the New Covenant Date.
The Bond Fund and Accounts. A special fund of the City known as the 2002 Waterworks Revenue Bond
Account (the "Bond Fund") has been created by the Ordinance as a separate account in the Waterworks
Revenue Parity Bond Fund for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds. The Principal and
Interest Account is the subaccount created by the Ordinance in the Bond Fund for payment of the principal
and interest on the Bonds. So long as the Bonds are outstanding against the Bond Fund, on or before the
first day of each month, the City will pay into the Principal and Interest Account out of Gross Revenue a
fixed amount equal to 1/6 of the next ensuing six months' requirements for interest on the Bonds and an
amount equal to 1/12 of the amount of principal of the Bonds payable on the next ensuing principal payment
date. These allocations will be adjusted for the first payment dates to account for fewer months until the due
date. See Appendix A hereto under the caption"Summary of Certain Provisions of the Ordinance" for a
description of the Bond Fund after the New Covenant Date.
The Reserve Account and the Reserve Account Requirement. The Ordinance provides for the funding and
maintenance of a Reserve Account within the Bond Fund in an amount equal to Average Annual Debt
Service of the Bonds. As used herein, "Average Annual Debt Service"is equal to the sum of the Annual
7
Debt Service for the remaining years to the last scheduled maturity of the applicable bond issue or issues
divided by the number of those remaining years.
In the Ordinance,the City agrees that when the required amounts have been paid into the Reserve Account in
the Bond Fund,the City will maintain those amounts therein at all times, except for withdrawals therefrom
as authorized in the Ordinance, until there is sufficient money in the Bond Fund, including the Reserve
Account therein,to pay the principal of and interest to maturity on all outstanding Bonds,at which time no
further payments need be made into the Bond Fund,and the money in the Bond Fund,including the Reserve
Account,may be used to pay that principal and interest.
If there is a deficiency in the Principal and Interest Account for the payment of the principal and interest on
the Bonds,the deficiency will be made up from amounts available in the Reserve Account. Any deficiency
created in the Reserve Account will be made up from Gross Revenue first available after making necessary
provisions for the required payments into the Principal and Interest Account.
The Reserve Account will be funded from an initial deposit of approximately$542,300 from the balance in
the reserve account created for the City's Water and Sewer Refunding and Improvement Revenue Bonds,
1992 that was fully retired as of June 1,2002 with the remaining balance accumulated from Gross Revenue
in substantially equal monthly payments so that by no later than July 2005, there will be an amount on
deposit in the Reserve Account not less than Average Annual Debt Service for the Bonds.
Additionally, the respective bond funds for Outstanding Parity Bonds and the 1998 Bonds are required to
maintain reserve accounts equal to Average Annual Debt Service of each issue of Outstanding Parity Bonds
and the 1998 Bonds. The reserve accounts for Outstanding Parity Bonds and the 1998 Bonds are currently
fully funded in amounts at least equal to Average Annual Debt Service.
For a description of the Reserve Fund for Parity Bonds and the Reserve Requirement after the New
Covenant Date, see Appendix A—"Summary of Certain Provisions of the Ordinance"hereto.
Other Covenants. In the Ordinance,the City makes certain other covenants,including covenants regarding
maintenance of the Waterworks Utility, the sale or other disposition of the property of the Waterworks
Utility, the payment of Maintenance and Operation Expense,maintenance of tax exemption on the Bonds
and the maintenance of insurance on the Waterworks Utility properties. For a description of the covenants
on the Bonds after the New Covenant Date,see Appendix A hereto under the caption"Summary of Certain
Provisions of the Ordinance."
Future Parity Bonds. The City reserves the right to issue Future Parity Bonds which will constitute a lien
and charge on the Revenue of the Waterworks Utility on a parity with the Outstanding Parity Bonds, the
1998 Bonds and the Bonds,if the following conditions are met and complied with at the time of issuance of
the Future Parity Bonds:
(1) All payments required by any ordinance to be paid into any bond redemption funds
and accounts thereof created to secure the payment of Outstanding Parity Bonds shall

Debt Repayment Record
The City has always met principal and interest payments on all of its bonds when due.
.
12
Outstanding Bonds and Debt Service Requirements
Giving effect to the issuance of the Bonds,the City will have a total of$28,540,000 in principal of Bonds,
the 1998 Bonds and Outstanding Parity Bonds. The estimated Annual Debt Service during fiscal year 2002
on the Bonds,the 1998 Bonds and Outstanding Parity Bonds is$2,910,262. The initial Net Revenue(Gross
Revenue less Maintenance and Operation Expense)requirement of the Waterworks Utility based on a Net
Revenue coverage of 1.30 times the estimated Annual Debt Service,therefore,will be$3,783,341 in fiscal
year 2002. Based on the actual Net Revenue figure for fiscal year 2001 of$8,585,185,debt service coverage
is anticipated to be 2.94 times. The City may,however,issue Future Parity Bonds to finance capital needs of
the Waterworks Utility as described below that would reduce the debt service coverage below such level.
(See Appendix A-"Covenants of the Ordinance- Security"herein.)
Expected Future Improvements and Borrowings
The City's current Capital Improvement Plan("CIP")identifies system development and major maintenance
capital expenditures of$21,415,000 planned for the 2003 and 2004 fiscal years. The amount of Waterworks
Utility debt to be issued in support of these CIP elements has not yet been finalized,although the City does
expect the issuance of additional Utility debt prior to 2004.
The Water Utility
The Water Utility system consists of nine wells,one artesian spring,eleven water booster pump stations,and
281.5 miles of water lines. Renton has three sources of water:the Cedar River Aquifer,Springbrook Springs
and the Seattle Water Shed. Ninety-five percent of the water is currently from the Cedar River Aquifer,
three percent from Seattle, and two percent is from Springbrook Springs.
The five wells located in the Cedar River Aquifer are capable of producing 16.3 million gallons per day
("MGD"). The three wells located in the Maplewood Aquifer are capable of producing 7.9 MGD,Well 5A
can pump 2.0 MGD and the Springbrook Springs artesian spring can produce approximately 1.4 MGD. In
2001, the maximum demand for water was 11.96 MGD, and the average day demand was 7.1 MGD. In
total, the City's combined water sources can produce 27.6 MGD. It is estimated that this supply will
accommodate growth at least until the year 2015.

APPROVAL OF BOND COUNSEL
Legal matters incident to the authorization, issuance and sale of the Bonds by the City are subject to the
unqualified approving legal opinion of Gottlieb, Fisher & Andrews, PLLC, Seattle, Washington, Bond
Counsel. Fees payable to Gottlieb,Fisher&Andrews, Seattle,PLLC, Washington, as Bond Counsel, are
contingent upon the issuance of Bonds. Bond Counsel has reviewed this document only to confirm that the
portions of it describing the Bonds and the authority of the City to issue them conform to the Bonds, the
applicable laws under which they were issued and the language regarding federal income tax exemption. A
form of the legal opinion is included herein in Appendix E.
TAX EXEMPTION
In the opinion of Gottlieb,Fisher&Andrews,PLLC,Bond Counsel,as of the date of issue of the Bonds(the
"Date of Issue"), and provided the city complies with applicable requirements of the Code which must be
satisfied subsequent to the issuance thereof, the Bonds are not"private activity bonds,"as defined by the
Code; interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under existing
federal law; and such interest is not an item of tax preference for purposes of determining the alternative
minimum tax onindividualsand corporations under existing federal law. However,under existing federal
law,interest on the Bonds received by certain corporations is to be taken into account in the computation of
adjusted current earnings for purposes of calculating the alternative minimum tax applicable to such
corporations; such interest received by certain S corporations may be subject to tax; and such interest
received by foreign corporations with United States branches maybe subject to a foreign branch profits tax.
Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any other federal tax consequences of receipt of interest on the
Bonds. Potential purchasers of the Bonds should consult with their tax advisors as to all possible tax
consequences of ownership of the Bonds. See also, "Other Tax Consequences,"herein.
The Code contains certain requirements which must be'satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds in
order to maintain the tax treatment described above,including requirements relating to the application of the
proceeds of the Bonds, use of facilities which are financed with such proceeds,'limitations on income
20
derived from the investment of gross proceeds ofthe Bonds (as defined in Section 148 of the Code), and
rebate to the United States Treasury of certain of such investment income on such gross proceeds. The City
has covenanted to comply with these requirements; and the opinion of Bond Counsel described in the
preceding paragraph assumes such compliance. However,Bond Counsel has not undertaken and shall not
undertake to monitor compliance by the City with such requirements and failure of the City to comply with
such requirements could cause the interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income
tax purposes,and could be treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of the alternative minimum tax
on individuals and corporations,in each case,retroactive to the Date of Issue.
OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES
Under current federal law:
•
1. Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax. The interest on tax-exempt obligations received by a
corporation is taken into account in the computation of the alternative minimum tax applicable to
- corporations (as defined for federal income tax purposes). Under currentfederal law, the alternative
minimum taxable income of such a corporation (other than an S corporation, a regulated investment
company, a real estate investment trust or a REMIC) is increased by 75% of the amount by which the
"adjusted current earnings" of the corporation exceeds the corporation's alternative minimum taxable
income determined without regard to such increase and any alternative tax net operating loss deduction.
Interest on tax-exempt obligations,whenever issued or acquired,including interest on the Bonds,is included
in thecomputation of"adjusted net book income"and"adjusted current earnings."
2. Tax on Excess Passive Investment Income of S Corporations. Certain excess net passive
investment income,including interest on the Bonds,received by an S corporation(a corporation treated as a
partnership for most federal tax purposes) that has"subchapter C earnings and profits" at the close of its
taxable year may be subject to federal income tax at the highest rate applicable to corporations if more than
25%of the gross receipts of such S corporation for such taxable year is passive investment income.
I '.
3. Foreign Corporation Branch Profits Tax. Interest on the Bonds received by certain foreign
corporations doing business in the United States may be'subject to a branch profits tax applicable to such
corporations that is based on their United States source earnings and profits,including tax-exempt interest on
obligations such as the Bonds. -
t
4. Elimination of Interest Deduction for Financial Institutions. The Bonds are not"qualified tax-
exempt obligations"for purposes of the 80 percent financial institution interest expense deduction permitted
pursuant to the Code. None of the interest expense incurred by banks and other financial institutions
' allocable to the purchase or carrying of the Bonds may be deducted by such institution.
5. Reduction of Loss Deduction for Property and Casualty Insurance Companies. Interest on tax-
exempt obligations,including the Bonds,received by property and casualty insurance companies,will reduce
tax deductions for loss reserves otherwise available to such companies by an amount equal to 15 percent of
such tax-exempt interest received during the taxable year.
6. Social Security and Tier 1 Railroad Retirement Benefits'Subject to Tax. Interest received or
accrued during the year from tax-exempt obligations, such as the Bonds,'is included in the calculation of
21
•
"modified adjusted gross income"of recipients of the social security or tier 1 railroad retirement benefits. If
the sum of the"modified adjusted gross income"for the taxable year plus one-half of the social security or
tier 1 railroad retirement benefits received during the taxable year exceeds a base amount provided by the
Code(the"excess amount"),then the lesser of(i)one-half of the social security or tier 1 railroad retirement
benefits received during the taxable year or(ii) one-half of the "excess amount", is included in the gross
income of the social security or tier 1 railroad retirement benefit recipient.
Covenant Against Arbitrage
The City has covenanted that it will not take or permit to be taken on its behalf any action that would
adversely affect the exclusion of the interest on the Bonds from gross income for purposes of federal income
taxation, and will take or require to be taken such acts as may be permitted by State law and as may from
time to time be required under applicable law to continue the exclusion of the interest on the Bonds from the
gross income for purposes of federal income taxation. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,the
City has covenanted that it will not invest or make or permit any use of the proceeds of the Bonds or of its
other money at any time during the term of the Bonds which would cause the Bonds to be"arbitrage bonds"
within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code.
• The City further covenants that it will not take any action or permit any action to be taken that would cause
the Bonds to constitute "private activity bonds"under Section 141 of the Code.
NO LITIGATION CONCERNING THE BONDS
There is no controversy or litigation of any nature now pending or,to the knowledge of the City,threatened,
restraining or enjoining the issuance, sale, execution or delivery of the Bonds, or in any way contesting or
affecting the validity of the Bonds, any proceedings of the City taken with respect to the issuance or sale
thereof, or affecting the ability of the City to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds.
UNDERWRITING
D.A.Davidson&Co.(the"Underwriter")has agreed,subject to the terms of a Bond Purchase Contract,to
purchase the Bonds from the City at an aggregate purchase price of %of the par value of the
Bonds, (which includes a net [original issue discount] [premium] of$ and an Underwriter's
discount of$ ,plus accrued interest. The Bonds are being reoffered for sale to the public at
the prices shown on the cover of this Official Statement (for an average price of %).
Concessions from the initial offering price may be allowed to selected dealers and special purchasers. The
initial offering price is subject to change after the date hereof.
RATINGS
Standard &Poor's Rating Group, New York, New York, and Fitch Ratings, New York, New York have
assigned the municipal rating of"A+" and "AA-", respectively, to this issue of Bonds (the "underlying
ratings"). No application was made to any other rating agency for the purpose of obtaining an additional
22
rating on the Bonds. There is no assurance that the underlying ratings will be retained for any given period
of time or that the underlying ratings will not be revised downward or withdrawn entirely by the rating
agency if, in its judgment, circumstances so warrant. Any downward revision or withdrawal of the
underlying ratings would be likely to have an adverse effect on the market price of the Bonds. The rating
reflects only the view of Standard&Poor's and Fitch Ratings and an interpretation or further explanation of
such rating maybe obtained from Standard&Poor's Rating Group,New York,New York or Fitch Ratings,
New York,New York.
ENFORCEABILITY
The provisions of the Bonds and the Ordinance, constitute contracts between the City and the owner or
owners of the Bonds, and such provisions are enforceable by the registered owner or owners in a court of
competent jurisdiction in the State by mandamus or other appropriate remedy,subject to judicial discretion
and the valid exercise of sovereign police power of the State and may be limited by laws affecting the rights
of creditors.
COMMITMENT TO PROVIDE CONTINUING DISCLOSURE

If there is a deficiency in the Bond Fund to meet maturing installments of either principal or interest,as the case
maybe,on the Bonds,that deficiency will be made up from the Reserve Fund by the withdrawal of cash therefrom for
that purpose. Any deficiency created in the Reserve Fund by reason of any such withdrawal will then be made up from
Net Revenue first available after making necessary provisions for the required payments into the Bond Fund. Any
money in the Reserve Fund in excess of the Reserve Requirement may be withdrawn and deposited in any Parity Bond
Fund and spent for the purpose of retiring Parity Bonds or may be deposited in any other fund and spent for any other
lawful Waterworks Utility purpose.

First,to pay Maintenance and Operation Expense;
Second,to pay interest on the Outstanding Parity Bonds and Parity Bonds;
Third,to pay the principal of the Outstanding Parity Bonds and Parity Bonds;

Fifth,after the New Covenant Date,to make all payments required to be made into the Reserve Fund;
Sixth,to make all payments required to be made into any revenue bond redemption fund or warrant redemption
fund and debt service account or reserve account created to pay and secure the payment of the principal of and interest
on any revenue bonds or revenue warrants of the City having a lien upon Gross Revenue junior and inferior to the lien
thereon for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Outstanding Parity and Parity Bonds; and
Seventh,to retire by optional redemption or purchase in the open market any outstanding revenue bonds or
revenue warrants of the City,to make necessary additions,betterments,improvements and repairs to or extensions and
replacements of the Waterworks Utility,and after the New Covenant Date,to make deposits into the Rate Stabilization
Fund, or for any other lawful City purpose.
Additional Covenants
Maintenance of the Utility. It will at all times maintain and keep the Waterworks Utility in good repair,
working order and condition and also will at all times operate such Utility and the business in connection therewith in
an efficient manner and at a reasonable cost.
Disposition of the Waterworks Utility. Prior to the New Covenant Date,it will not sell,lease,mortgage or in
any manner encumber or dispose (as used herein "dispose") of all the property of the Waterworks Utility unless
provision is made for payment into each of the respective bond redemption funds or accounts for the Outstanding Parity
Bonds and the 1998 Bonds and into the Bond Fund of sums sufficient to pay,respectively,the principal of and interest
on all Outstanding Parity Bonds,the 1998 Bonds and the Bonds at any time outstanding,and that it will not or dispose
of any part of the property of the Waterworks Utility that is used,useful and material to the operation thereof,unless
provision is made for replacement thereof,or for payment into the respective bond redemption funds or accounts for the
Outstanding Parity Bonds and the 1998 Bonds and into the Bond Fund of the total amount of revenue received which
will not be less than an amount which bears the same ratio to the amount of the Outstanding Parity Bonds, the
1998 Bonds and Bonds,respectively,as the revenue available for debt service for such outstanding bonds for the twelve
months preceding such disposal from the portion of the disposed of bears to the revenue available for debt service for
A-7
such bonds from the entire utility for the same period. Any such money so paid into such funds will be used to retire
such outstanding bonds at the earliest possible date.
After the New Covenant Date, it will not dispose of the Waterworks Utility in its entirety unless,
simultaneously with such disposition,all Parity Bonds are defeased pursuant to the provisions of the Ordinance.It will
not dispose of any part of the Waterworks Utility(other than timber),including all additions and improvements thereto
and extensions thereof at any time made,that are used,useful or material in the operation of the Waterworks Utility,
unless provision is made for the replacement thereof or for payment into the Bond Fund of the greatest of the following:
(a) An amount which will be in the same proportion to the net amount of any Parity Bonds then
outstanding(defined as the total amount of those bonds less the amount of cash and investments in the Reserve Fund
and any Parity Bond Funds) that Gross Revenue from the portion of the Waterworks Utility disposed of for the
preceding year bears to the total Gross Revenue for that period;
(b) An amount which will be in the same proportion to the net amount of any Parity Bonds then
outstanding(as defined above)that the Net Revenue from the portion of the Waterworks Utility disposed of for the
preceding year bears to the total Net Revenue for that period; or
(c) An amount which will be in the same proportion to the net amount of any Parity Bonds then
outstanding(as defined above)that the depreciated cost value of the facilities disposed of bears to the depreciated cost
value of the entire Waterworks Utility immediately prior to such sale or disposition.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Ordinance concerning such disposition,(a)the City in its discretion
may dispose of any of the works,plant,properties or facilities of the Waterworks Utility or any real or personal property
comprising a part of the same which becomes unserviceable,inadequate,obsolete or unfit to be used in the operation of
the Waterworks Utility,or no longer necessary,material to or useful to the operation of the Waterworks Utility,without
making any deposit into the Bond Fund, and(b)the City may transfer the Waterworks Utility to another municipal
corporation so long as Net Revenue of the portion of the Waterworks Utility so transferred is used for payment of debt
service on the Parity Bonds prior to any other purpose. Such proceeds will not be treated as Gross Revenue.
Books and Accounts. Prior to the New Covenant Date,it will,while any of the Bonds remain outstanding,
keep proper and separate accounts and records in which complete and separate entries will be made of all transactions
relating to the Waterworks Utility,and it will furnish the owner or owners of the Bonds at the written request of such
owner or owners complete operating and income statements of such utility in reasonable detail issued in any calendar
year not more than ninety days after the close of such calendar year,and it will grant any owner or owners of at least
twenty-five percent of the outstanding Bonds the right at all reasonable times to inspect the entire Waterworks Utility
and all records,accounts and data of the City relating thereto. Upon request of any owner of any of the Bonds,it also
will furnish to such owner a copy of the most recently completed audit of the City's accounts by the State Auditor.
After the New Covenant Date,the City has covenanted that it will keep proper books,records and accounts
with respect to the operations,income and expenditures of the Waterworks Utility in accordance with proper accounting - -
procedures and any applicable rules and regulations prescribed by the State. It will prepare annual financial and
operating statements within 270 days of the close of each fiscal year showing in reasonable detail the financial
condition of the Waterworks Utility as of the close of the previous year,and the income and expenses for such year,
including the amounts paid into the Bond Fund and Reserve Fund and into any and all special funds or accounts created
pursuant to the Ordinance,the status of all funds and accounts as of the end of such year,and the amounts expended for
maintenance,renewals,replacements and capital additions to the Waterworks Utility. Such statements will be sent to
the owner of any Parity Bonds upon written request therefor being made to the City.
No Free Service. Prior to the New Covenant Date,it will not furnish water,sanitary sewage disposal service
or storm and surface water drainage service to any customer whatsoever free of charge and promptly will take legal
action to enforce collection of all delinquent accounts.
A-8
After the New Covenant Date,the City has covenanted that except to aid the poor or infirm,to provide for
resource conservation or to provide for the proper handling of hazardous materials, it will not furnish or supply or
permit the furnishing or supplying of any service or facility in connection with the operation of the Waterworks Utility
free of charge to any person,firm or corporation,public or private,other than the City,so long as any Parity Bonds are
outstanding. On at least an annual basis,it will determine all accounts that are delinquent and will take all necessary
action to enforce payment of such accounts against those property owners whose accounts are delinquent.
Insurance. Prior to the New Covenant Date,it will carry the types of insurance on the Waterworks Utility
properties in the amounts normally carried by private water and sewer companies engaged in the operation of water and
sewerage systems,and the cost of such insurance will be considered a part of operating and maintaining such utility. If,
as,and when the United States of America or some agency thereof will provide for war risk insurance,the City further
agrees to take out and maintain such insurance on all or such portions of such utility on which such war risk insurance
may be written in an amount or amounts to cover adequately the value thereof.
After the New Covenant Date,it at all times will carry fire and extended coverage and such other forms of
insurance,including public liability and property damage insurance,with responsible insurers and with policies payable
to or on behalf of the City and any additional insureds on such of the buildings,equipment,works,plants,facilities and
properties of the Waterworks Utility, and against such claims for damages, as are ordinarily carried by municipal or
privately owned utilities engaged in the operation of like systems,or will implement and maintain a self-insurance or an
insurance pool program with reserves adequate, in the reasonable judgment of the City, to protect the Waterworks
Utility and the Owners of the Parity Bonds against loss.
Obligations. It will pay all Maintenance and Operation Expense and the debt service requirements for the
Outstanding Parity Bonds,the outstanding 1998 Bonds and the outstanding Bonds,and otherwise meet the obligations
of the City as set forth in the Ordinance.
Preservation of Tax Exemption. It will take all actions necessary to prevent interest on the Bonds from being
included in gross income for federal income tax purposes,and it will neither take any action nor make or permit any use
of proceeds of the Bonds or other funds of the City treated as proceeds of the Bonds at any time during the term of the
Bonds which will cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes. It will,
to the extent arbitrage rebate requirements of Section 148 of the Code are applicable to the Bonds, take all action
necessary to comply(or to be treated as having complied) with those requirements in connection with the Bonds,
including the calculation and payment of any penalties that the City has elected to pay as an alternative to calculating
rebatable arbitrage,and the payment of any other penalties if required under Section 148 of the Code to prevent interest
on the Bonds from being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes.
Future Parity Bonds
After the New Covenant Date,the City will no longer have the right to issue Bonds on a parity with the 1993
Refunding Bonds and the 1994 Bonds.The City reserves the right to issue Future Parity Bonds with a lien upon the
Revenue of the Waterworks Utility equal to the lien of the 1998 Bonds and the Bonds,so long as there is not deficiency
in the Parity Bond Fund and if the following conditions are met and complied with at the time of issuance of the Future
Parity Bonds:
(a) A certificate is delivered certifying that the Net Revenue will be at least equal to the Coverage
Requirement. If Net Revenue from any 12 consecutive months of the preceding 36 months prior to the date of issuance
of additional bonds is equal to the Coverage Requirement,the City Finance Director will be entitled to deliver such
certification. If Net Revenue includes adjustments to reflect changes in the schedule of rates and charges,customers
added to the Utility,or changes to revenues and expenses reflecting completion of any facilities under construction or to
be acquired, constructed or installed from proceeds of any Future Parity Bonds,the certification will be signed by a
Professional Utility Consultant. For the purposes of calculating the Coverage Requirement for the issuance of Future
Parity Bonds,in neither case will Net Revenue reflect deposits into or withdrawals from the Rate Stabilization Fund.
A-9
(b) The ordinance authorizing the issuance of Future Parity Bonds will provide that an amount equal to the
increase in the Reserve Requirement attributable to the Future Parity Bonds to be issued be deposited to the Reserve
Fund from proceeds of the Future Parity Bonds or other available funds. If then existing federal tax law precludes the
deposit of sufficient funds from proceeds of the Future Parity Bonds,the remaining amount will be accumulated in not
less than three years from the date of issuance of the Future Parity Bonds in approximately equal annual deposits.The
Reserve Requirement can be met by the purchase of Reserve Insurance or Alternate Security.

KING COUNTY ECONOMIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
Local Economic Overview
The City is located in northwestern Washington in County. The City is located approximately 20 miles
southeast of the City of Seattle and approximately 60.miles northeast of the City of Olympia, the State's
capital.
The County,with a population of 1,758,300, encompasses 2,128 square miles,ranking 11th in geographical
size of Washington's 39 counties but first in population. Seattle is the largest city in the Pacific Northwest
and serves as the County seat. The County and Snohomish and Island Counties to the north together comprise
the Seattle Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area (the "Seattle PMSA"), which is the fourth-largest
metropolitan center on the Pacific Coast. In addition to the City and the City of Seattle,principal cities of the
Seattle PMSA include Auburn, Bellevue,Bothell, Burien, Federal Way, Issaquah, Kent,Kirkland,Mercer
Island, Redmond, Shoreline, and Woodinville, all of which are in the County, and Everett, Edmonds,
Mountlake Terrace and Lynnwood in Snohomish County. These communities serve as residential,
commercial, and industrial satellites of Seattle.
Seattle PMSA's employment base is well diversified, with strengths in manufacturing, trade services and
government sectors. In 2000,manufacturing comprised about 10.5%of the area's employment,with aircraft
production representing the largest component. In the non-manufacturing sectors, services was the largest
sector with over 34.5% of the total employment, wholesale and retail trade comprised almost 21.9% and
government and public education 11.0%. The services industry contributed 38.9% of the total earnings by
industries in the County, the most of all industries, followed by wholesale and retail trade with 15.7% and
manufacturing with 13.1%.The U.S.Defense Department is one of the largest employers in the Puget Sound
region. Major facilities include Fort Lewis Army Base in Pierce County,the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in
Bremerton (Kitsap County), Bangor Naval Submarine Base in Kitsap County,McChord Air Force Base in
Pierce County and Naval Station Everett.
The area's universities and research institutions serve as catalysts in the expansion of high tech industries.
Other key factors that support continued growth include the existing industry base;a well-trained labor force;
relatively low cost power; and a progressive business climate with excellent transportation access to
worldwide markets.
Aircraft Manufacturing—The Boeing Company
Manufacturing in the area consists primarily of aircraft manufacturing by the Boeing Company("Boeing").
Boeing is the largest aerospace company in the world,as measured by total sales,and is consistently one of the
nation's top three exporters. In May 2001,Boeing moved its world headquarters and approximately 1,200
employees from Seattle to Chicago to allow the corporate staff to focus on the direction of the company rather
than day-to-day operations. Boeing remains the area's largest employer with several locations in the Puget
Sound region.
In 2001, Boeing reported total revenues of $58 billion. While the primary activity of Boeing is the
manufacture of commercial aircraft, Boeing has played leading roles in the aerospace and military missile
programs of the United States human space flight, launch services and has undertaken a broad program of
C-2
diversification activities including Boeing Computer Services. Boeing has six major divisions to carry out
- business activities, which include Air Traffic Management, Boeing Capital Corporation, Commercial
Airplanes, Connexion by Boeing,Military Aircraft and Missile Systems, and Space and Communications.
In 1996,Boeing acquired the aerospace and defense operations of Rockwell International Corporation and in
1997 merged with McDonnell Douglas,its only U.S.commercial airline rival and the world's largest builder
of military aircraft, for approximately $16.3 billion. In recent years, Boeing has strived to streamline
workforce operations and facilities. Since 1998, Boeing has reduced its total workforce from231,260 to
- 176,200(as of May 2002), a decrease of approximately 55,060(23.8%)employees. Since 1998,Boeing has
reduced the total work force in Washington from 98,440 to 66,900 (as of May 2002), a decrease of
approximately 31,540(32.0%)employees. Boeing's Washington employees are located largely in the Puget
Sound Region,which currently has 19 Boeing sites/locations, including the Renton Plant at Renton Field.
As of 2001, Boeing employed 19,463 people at its Renton Plant, a decrease from approximately 20,000
(2.8%) employees as of 1998. As of the date of this Official Statement,it cannot be predicted if there will be
further Boeing layoffs that will impact the Renton Plant or other Puget Sound Region operations. The Renton
Plant is one of Boeing's major production sites with a 330-acre site encompassing approximately 7.7 million
square feet of building space. Over the years,the Airplane Programs site in Renton has been home to many of
commercial aviation's most famous airplanes,including the 707, 727, 737 and 757. Approximately 40%of
the world's commercial jetliner fleet is produced at the Renton Plant. The ground floor of Renton's final
assembly building for the Boeing 737 and 757 covers 760,000 square feet.Activities at other main buildings at
the Renton site include sub-assembly, wing-line production and a paint hangar. The remaining buildings
house administrative and engineering personnel and materiel handling. Renton Airport, located west of the
main site,is used by Boeing to perform pre-flight tests on all 737s and 757s before they make their initial test
- flight. After the flight tests, the airplanes land at Boeing Field in Seattle,where final preparations are made
before they are delivered to customers.
In September 2001,Boeing announced that it planned to lay off 30,000 employees in the next year. Boeing
planned to cut 10%of its total commercial airplane workforce by December 2001, and then would consider
laying off an additional 10%by mid 2002 and another 10%by the end of 2002 until the target of 25,000 to
30,000 jobs are cuts from operations.
Technology
The Seattle PMSA has experienced a substantial development of high technology,electronics and computer-
related enterprises particularly over the last decade. More than 1,500 computer development firms are located
in the Seattle PMSA. Microsoft, which is headquartered in Redmond,. Washington, is the largest
microcomputer software company in the world,with 2001 gross sales worldwide of$25.3 billion,increasing
from$23.0 billion in 2000. Other leading employers include Sundstrand Data Control,Inc. (electronics and
aerospace systems), ELDEC Corporation (electronic equipment), John Fluke Manufacturing Company
(electronic testing and calibrating instruments),Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center(cancer research and
treatment),Nintendo of North America(electronic games),Advanced Technology Laboratories(medical ultra-
sound equipment), Heath Techna Aerospace Co. (aerospace and defense specialties and architectural
equipment), Alliant Techsystems Inc. (sonar systems and signal processing equipment), and Intermec
Corporation(bar coding equipment).
C-3
Transportation
Seattle is bordered on the west by Elliott Bay, a natural harbor on Puget Sound,which is one of the nation's
leading seaports. The Port of Seattle (the "Port"), a County-wide port district, promotes maritime trade,
particularly foreign trade and the employment of containerized cargo facilities, and has developed and is
continually improving a system of marine terminals,piers and associated facilities on Seattle's waterfront.The
Port is the fifth largest container port in the U.S. and the 20th largest in the world. Served by 26 regularly
scheduled steamship lines, it is the top U.S. port in container tonnage exports to Asia. In 1997, the Port
completed construction of an$87.8 million multiple-use development on the downtown Seattle waterfront,.
which includes a transient moorage, fish processing, and cruise ship berthing support facilities, a marine
museum, an international conference center and a public plaza. The Port also operates the Seattle-Tacoma
International Airport ("SeaTac") which serves-21 major air carriers and five commuter airlines and is the
leading air travel and shipping center of the Pacific Northwest. SeaTac is located approximately seven miles
west of the City
King County International Airport ("Boeing Field"), a general aviation facility operated by the County, is
located in Seattle. With about 410,000 annual operations(takeoffs and landings),Boeing Field is the busiest
such facility in the region and ranks among the top 15 busiest in the nation. It serves as the primary inclement
weather alternate for SeaTac.
Seattle is the western terminus of two primary east-west freeway systems: Interstate Route 90 and State Route
520,and is traversed by north-south Interstate Route 5 and State Route 99. The portion of I-90 that connects
Seattle with eastside communities across Lake Washington was expanded to eight lanes at a cost of$1.2
billion in the early 1990's. In addition to the highway system, the Washington State Ferry System provides
convenient transportation between Seattle and points across Puget Sound to the west.
In 1996,voters in King,Pierce and Snohomish counties approved a$3.9 billion regional transit measure. The
transit system is currently under construction, expected to take ten years to build and will consist of electric
light rail, commuter rail and express buses. A four-mile-long light rail tunnel from downtown Seattle to the
University District is the most expensive component at$865 million. The transit system will be funded in
large part with increases in local sales taxes and vehicle license fees. Some federal funds will be contributed.
Fishing,Agriculture and Forest Products
Seattle is the homeport for a major salmon and halibut fishing fleet. Approximately 700 fishing boats are
based at the Port's Fishermen's Terminal on Salmon Bay,part of the fresh-water system of lakes and canals
connected to Puget Sound by the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks,which are operated by the US Army Corps of
Engineers. Fish received in Seattle are largely for fresh market distribution and for freeze processing. Seattle
is also a warehousing and distribution center for fish processed elsewhere in the Northwest,principally in
Alaska.
•
Agriculture in the County consists primarily of dairy farming,truck gardening,horticulture and the raising of
livestock and poultry. The Seattle area is a major center in the Northwest for agricultural supply,distribution
and marketing as well as for food handling and processing and the manufacture of food packaging and
containers.
C-4
The local forest products industry includes the manufacture of lumber, plywood,paper products, furniture,
acoustical materials and specialty wood products. Timber in the region is harvested under sustained-yield
programs on federal,state and private timberlands. The leading forest products employer is the Weyerhaeuser
Company,which operates lumber mills locally and has its corporate headquarters and a major research and
- development center in southwestern portion of the County. Employment and production levels within this
industry locally have been and are expected to be further impacted by recent decisions by the federal
government and the courts concerning the exporting of raw logs and restrictions on the harvesting of trees on
federal lands in"old growth"forests. The extent of such impact is unknown at this time. The wood and paper
products industry accounts for approximately one percent of the total Seattle PMSA employment.
Higher Education
The University of Washington(the"University")is one of the oldest and largest state assisted universities on
the West Coast. Its primary campus is located in Seattle with satellite campuses located in Bothell and
Tacoma. Established in 1861,the University has 16 schools and colleges offering instruction in more than
200 academic disciplines. Undergraduate and graduate student enrollment for winter semester 2001-02 was
39,017. The University has a biennial operating budget of approximately$3.27 billion and consistently ranks
among the top five institutions of higher learning in the United States when measured by the receipt of federal
grants. The largest share of this funding goes to the University of Washington School of Medicine.
I Harborview Medical Center is the University's teaching hospital. Every physician practicing at Harborview is
a member of the University's School of Medicine faculty. This relationship has been essential to
Harborview's development of outstanding patient care services including the region's burn,trauma,epilepsy,
and spinal cord rehabilitation centers. Other higher education facilities in the Seattle area include two private
four-year universities,Seattle Pacific University(3,615 enrollment)and Seattle University(5,903 enrollment),
_ and seven community colleges.
Services,Tourism,Recreation and Conventions
The Seattle area is the health care center of the Pacific Northwest. There are 26 general-acute and four special
purpose hospitals,more than 4,500 beds, and approximately 3,000 physicians.
The State's fourth largest industry is tourism. There are over 8,000 hotel rooms in over 50 hotels and motels
in downtown Seattle. Seattle ranks in the top five cities in the nation in terms of hotel occupancy with 2001
occupancy rates of 73.4%with room rates averaging$147.54 per night. According to the Seattle-King County
Convention and Visitors Bureau, .398,000 convention goers added approximately $366 million to the
economy. The Washington State Convention and Trade Center currently occupies 102,000 square feet of
heavy load exhibition space and an expansion of approximately 105,000 square feet of which 70,000 square
feet is designed as clear span,column-free space is almost complete. The Convention Center has the capacity
to hold events involving as many as 11,000 people. In 2001,the Convention Center held 535 total events,
including national and local events. It is estimated that the Convention Center generates direct spending by
visitors of over$200 million annually on hotels,restaurants,entertaining,transportation and retail shopping.
Bordered on the west by Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains and on the east by the Cascade Mountain
range,the 2,128 square miles in the County offer many types of outdoor recreation. The County and the City
of Seattle maintain over 9,000 acres of parkland. The Seattle area has several symphony orchestras, five
C-5
theaters, an opera company, and four resident dance groups. The area is also the home to more than 3,000
artists and 1,300 arts organizations.
The Kingdome,former home to the National Football League's Seattle Seahawks and the American Baseball
League's Seattle Mariners,was demolished in March 2000 to make way for a new stadium/exhibition center.
The Kingdome, which was located adjacent to Seattle's central business district, served as a major sports,
concert and convention center for the Northwest for over 20 years.A public facilities district was created in
1996 to build a new world-class football/soccer stadium for use by the Seahawks as well as parking facilities,
an exhibition hall, and demolition of the Kingdome. In 1997, voters statewide approved the issuance of
general obligation bonds by the State to pay for the project,which is expected to cost$425 million,with$300 r
million paid from public sources. The stadium design includes a 72,000 seat capacity(including 7,000 club
seats and 82 suites) and an open-air, natural grass facility that will provide 70% of the fans with roof
protection. The exhibition center was completed in November 1999 and the stadium is to be completed in
July 2002 with the first game scheduled to be played in the stadium in August 2002. Seattle's new ballpark
for the Mariners (SAFECO Field) was completed in July 1999. The ballpark was constructed for $518
million,has a baseball capacity of 46,621 fans, and includes real grass and a retractable roof that covers the
ballpark but does not enclose it.
The Seattle Center,located one mile north of the central business district of Seattle,was the site for the 1962
World's Fair and it continues to be a popular attraction for residents and tourists alike. The 74-acre, year-
round convention and family entertainment center includes the Pacific Science Center, Coliseum, Seattle
Opera House,Key Arena,Memorial Stadium, Space Needle,the Experience Music Project and a number of
meeting and display rooms. Key Arena serves as the home of Seattle's third major league sports team, the
National Basketball Association's Seattle Supersonics. A major renovation project was recently completed at
the Coliseum.

provided to each then existing NRMSIR or the SD, if one is created.
If not submitted as part of the Annual Financial Information, then when and if available, the City shall

Form of Legal Opinion
E-1
Form of Approving Opinion of
Gottlieb,Fisher&Andrews,PLLC,
Bond Counsel
[Date of Issue]
City of Renton
Renton, Washington 98058
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as bond counsel in connection with the issuance by the City of Renton,
Washington(the"City"), of the bonds described below(the"Bonds"):
CITY OF RENTON, WASHINGTON
WATER AND SEWER REVENUE BONDS, 2002
Dated: July 1, 2002
The Bonds are issued pursuant to Ordinance No. of the City(the"Bond Ordinance") and
other proceedings duly had and taken in conformity therewith. The Bonds are issued for the purpose of
providing a part of the funds necessary to pay the cost of carrying out certain capital improvements of
the waterworks utility and paying the costs related to the sale and issuance of the Bonds, all as specified
in the Bond Ordinance.
The Bonds are issued as fully registered bonds in the denomination of$5,000 each or in any
integral multiple thereof within a single maturity. The Bonds bear interest from their date or from the
most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for,whichever is
later,payable on December 1,2002, and semiannually thereafter on June 1 and December 1 of each year
to the maturity or earlier redemption thereof. The Bonds bear interest at the rates and shall mature on
December 1 of each of the years and in the principal amounts set forth below:
Maturity Date Principal Interest Rate
(December 1) Amount Per Annum
' 'I
E-2
1 ,
The Bonds are'subject to redemption prior to maturity at the times and in the manner described in
the Bond Ordinance.
In rendering this opinion letter,we have examined the following: (i)the Bond Ordinance;
(ii) one executed and authenticated Bond(we assume that all other Bonds are in the same form and have
been similarly executed and authenticated); and(iii)the certified proceedings of the City and other
certificates of public officials and representatives of the City which have been furnished to us and which
— comprise the transcript of proceedings pertaining to the issuance of the Bonds (the"Transcript").
As to questions of fact material to the opinions expressed herein,we have relied upon the
certified proceedings of the City and other certificates of public officials and representatives of the City
which have been furnished to us as part of the Transcript, all without undertaking to verify the same by
independent investigation.
Based only upon the foregoing and our examination of such questions of law as we have deemed
necessary or appropriate for the purpose of this opinion letter, and subject to the limitations and
qualifications expressed below,we are of the opinion that, as of this date:
1. The Bonds are lawfully authorized and issued pursuant to and in full compliance with the
Constitution and statutes of the State of Washington, the Bond Ordinance and Ordinance No. 4709 of the
City.
2. The Gross Revenue (as defined in the Bond Ordinance) hereafter collected has been
pledged to the payments to be made into the"2002 Waterworks Revenue Bond Account" (the "Bond
Fund") as set forth in the Bond Ordinance, and the Bonds constitute a lien and charge on that revenue
prior and superior to any other charges whatsoever, excluding Maintenance and Operation Expense
(defined in the Bond Ordinance), except that the lien and charge on such Gross Revenue for the Bonds
shall be on a parity with the lien and charge thereon for the Outstanding Parity Bonds (defined in the
Bond Ordinance),the City's Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 1998, and any Future Parity
Bonds (defined in the Bond Ordinance).
3. The Bonds are legal,valid and binding special fund revenue obligations of the City,
payable solely out of the Bond Fund, enforceable against the City in accordance with their terms, subject
to the limitations as to enforceability of laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency,reorganization,
- moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights, and also to the exercise of judicial
discretion in accordance with general principles of equity. The Bonds are not general obligations of the
City.
4. The Bonds are not"private activity bonds,"as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended(the"Code").
5. Assuming compliance by the City with applicable requirements of the Code that must be
met subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds, the interest on the Bonds is excluded from the gross
income for federal income tax purposes under existing federal law, and such interest is not an item of tax
preference for purposes of determining alternative minimum taxable income for individuals and
corporations under existing federal law. However,under existing federal law, interest on the Bonds
received by certain corporations is taken into account in the computation of adjusted current earnings for
- purposes of calculating the alternative minimum tax applicable to such corporations; such interest
E-3
it
received by foreign corporations with United States branches may be subject to a foreign branch profits
tax; and such interest received by certain S corporations may be subject to tax.
[6. The difference between the principal amount of the Bonds maturing in the years
through , inclusive (the"Discount Bonds"), and the initial offering price to the public (excluding
bond houses,brokers and similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters or
wholesalers) at which price a substantial amount of such Discount Bonds of the same maturity was sold
constitutes original issue discount, which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes
to the same extent as interest on the Discount Bonds. Further,this original issue discount accrues over
the term of each Discount Bond on the basis of a constant yield to maturity and the basis of each
Discount Bond acquired at such initial offering price by an initial purchaser of such Discount Bonds will
be increased by the amount of such accrued original issue discount.]
Except as stated in the preceding paragraphs 4, 5 and 6,we express no opinion as to any federal
or state tax consequences of the ownership or disposition of the Bonds.
The Code contains certain requirements which must be satisfied subsequent to the date of issue
of the Bonds in order to maintain the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal
income tax purposes, including requirements relating to application of the proceeds of the Bonds, use of
facilities financed with such proceeds, limitations on income derived from the investment of gross
proceeds of the Bonds (as defined in Section 148 of the Code), and rebate to the United States Treasury
of certain investment earnings on such gross proceeds. The City has covenanted to comply with these
requirements, and the opinions expressed in paragraphs 4, 5 and 6 assume such compliance. However,
we have not undertaken and do not undertake to monitor compliance by the City with such requirements;
and failure of the City to comply with such requirements could cause interest on the Bonds to be
included in gross income for federal income tax purposes and to be treated as an item of tax preference
for purposes of the alternative minimum tax on individuals and corporations,in each case, retroactive to
the date of issue of the Bonds.
We have not been engaged to participate in the preparation or review of, or express any opinion
concerning the completeness or accuracy of, the official statement or other disclosure documentation
used in connection with the offer or sale of the Bonds, and thus express no opinion concerning the
completeness or accuracy thereof.`
Copies of this opinion letter may be delivered to the Owners of the Bonds,who may rely on this
opinion letter as if it were addressed to them on the date hereof. Subject to the foregoing,this opinion
letter may be relied upon by you only in connection with the issuance of the Bonds and may not be used
or relied upon by you or any other person for any other purpose whatsoever,without in each instance our
prior written consent. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to advise you or any Owners of any
developments in areas covered by this opinion letter that occur after the date hereof.
Respectfully submitted,

Code of 1986,as amended,that must be met subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds: interest on the Bonds,including any properly allocable original issue
discount,is excluded from gross income for purposes of federal income tax purposes and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of determining the

? i
System"below for a discussion of how redemption notices will be given by DTC to the beneficial

others will distribute any redemption notices to the beneficial owners or that they will do so on a timely
basis. From and after the date that the Bonds are no longer held in book-entry form,notice of redemption

description of the City's undertaking to provide certain notices.

specified redemption date provided funds for redemption are on deposit at either of the principal corporate
trust offices of the Registrar at that time. Bonds called for redemption shall not be deemed to be outstanding
as of such redemption date provided funds for redemption are on deposit with the Registrar at such time.
Open Market Purchase of the Bonds
The City has reserved the right to purchase any of the Bonds in the open market at any time and at any price.
Book-Entry Form
When the Bonds are issued, ownership interest will be available to purchasers only through a book-entry
system(the"Book-Entry System")maintained by DTC or such other depository institution designated by the
City pursuant to the Ordinance. If the Bonds are removed from the Book-Entry System and delivered to the
persons named as the registered owners of the Bonds on the registration records maintained by the Registrar
(the "Registered Owners")in physical form, as described below, the discussion herein of the Book-Entry
System will not apply. The following information has been provided by DTC, and the City makes no
representation as to the accuracy or completeness thereof.
1. The Depository Trust Company("DTC"),New York,NY,will act as securities depository for the
Bonds. The Bonds will be issued as fully registered securities registered in the name of Cede&Co.
(DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized
representative of DTC. One fully registered bond certificate will be issued for each maturity of the
Bonds, each in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity, and will be deposited with DTC.
2. DTC,the world's largest depository,is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New
York Banking Law,a"banking organization"within the meaning of the New York Banking Law,a
member of the Federal Reserve System, a"clearing corporation"within the meaning of the New
York Uniform Commercial Code, and a"clearing agency"registered pursuant to the provisions of
Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. ,DTC holds and provides asset servicing for
over 2 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues,corporate and municipal debt issues,and
money market instruments from over 85 countries that DTC's participants ("Direct Participants")
- deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales
and other securities transactions in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry
transfers and pledges between Direct Participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for physical
movement of securities certificates. "Direct Participants"include both U.S.and non-U.S. securities
brokers and dealers,banks,trust companies,clearingcorporations,and certain other organizations.
DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporations ("DTCC").
DTCC,in turn,is owned by a number of Direct Participants of DTC and Members of the National
Securities Clearing Corporation, Government Securities Clearing Corporation, MBS Clearing
Corporation, and Emerging Markets Clearing Corporation, (NSCC,GSCC,MBSCC,and EMCC,
also subsidiaries of DTCC),as well as by the New York Stock Exchange,Inc.,the American Stock
Exchange,Inc.,and the National Association of Securities Dealers,Inc. Access to the DTC system
is also available to others,such as U.S.and non-U.S.securities brokers and dealers,banks,and trust
companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a
Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). DTC has Standard and
3
Poor's highest rating: AAA. The DTC rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at
www.dtcc.com.
3. Purchases of Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants,which
credit for the Bonds on DTC's records. The ownershipinterest of each actual -,
will receive a
purchaser of each Bond("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect
Participants' records. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to receive written confirmation
from DTC of their purchase,but Beneficial Owners are expected to receive written confirmations
providing details of the transaction,as well as periodic statements of their holdings,from the Direct
or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of
ownership interests in the Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct or
Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive
certificates representing their ownership interests in Bonds,except in the event that use of the book-
entry system for the Bonds is discontinued.
4. To facilitate subsequent transfers,all Bonds deposited by Participants with DTC are registered in the
name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede &Co., or such other name as may be requested by an
authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name
of Cede&Co.,or such other DTC nominee,do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC
has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Bonds; DTC's records reflect only the
identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Bonds are credited,which may or may not
be the Beneficial Owners. The Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their
holdings on behalf of their customers.
5. Conveyances of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct
Participants to Indirect Participants,and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial
Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory
requirements as may be in effect from time to time.
6. Redemption notices, if any, shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within an issue are
being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct
Participant in such issue to be redeemed.
7. Neither DTC nor Cede&Co. (nor such other DTC nominee),will consent or vote with respect to
Bonds unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's Procedures. Under its
usual procedures,DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the City as soon as possible after the record date.
The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede&Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to
whose accounts Bonds are credited on the record date(identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus
Proxy).
8. Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments on the Bonds will be made to Cede&
Co., or such other nominee as may be requested,by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's
practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts,upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding
detail information from the City on payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown
on DTC's records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing
instructions and customary practices,as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers
in bearer form or registered in"street name,"and will be the responsibility of such Participant and
4
not of DTC or the City,subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from
time to time.Payment of redemption proceeds,distributions,and dividend,payments to.Cede&Co.
(or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the
responsibility of the City, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants shall be the
responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to Beneficial Owners shall be the
responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.
9. DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the Bonds at any
time by giving reasonable notice to the City. Under such circumstances,in the event that a successor
securities depository is not obtained,Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered.
10. The City may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC (or a
successor securities depository). In that event,Bond certificates will be printed and delivered.
11. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained
from sources that the City believes to be reliable,but the City takes no responsibility for the accuracy
thereof.
Transfer and Exchange of Bonds Upon Discontinuance of Book-Entry System
So long as the Bonds are in book-entry only form, the beneficial ownership of the Bonds may only be
transferred in the records established and maintained by DTC. Upon discontinuance of the book-entry
system,the Bonds may be transferred by Registered Owners upon completion of the assignment form on the
Bond(s)in form and substance satisfactory to the Registrar and delivery of the Bond(s)to be transferred to
the principal corporate trust office of the Registrar for cancellation and re-issuance. Upon such surrender,
the Registrar will cancel the surrendered Bonds and deliver to the new Registered Owner a new Bond or
Bonds of the same maturity and interest rate and for the same aggregate principal amount. Upon
discontinuance of the book-entry system,any Bond may be surrendered at the principal corporate trust office
of the Registrar and exchanged,without charge, for an equal aggregate principal amount of Bonds,in any
authorized denomination. The Registrar is not required to transfer or exchange Bonds during the 15 days
preceding any principal or interest payment or optional redemption date.

and interest on the Bonds. So long as the Bonds are outstanding against the Bond Fund, on or before the
first day of each month, the City will pay into the Principal and Interest Account out of Gross Revenue a
fixed amount equal to 1/6 of the'next ensuing six months' requirements for interest on the Bonds and an

divided by the number of those remaining years.
In the Ordinance,the City agrees that when the required amounts have been paid into the Reserve Account in
the Bond Fund,the City will maintain those amounts therein at all times,except for withdrawals therefrom
as authorized in the Ordinance, until there is sufficient money in the Bond Fund, including the Reserve
Account therein,to pay the principal of and interest to maturity on all outstanding Bonds,at which time no
further payments need be made into the Bond Fund,and the money in the Bond Fund,including the Reserve
Account,may be used to pay that principal and interest.
If there is a deficiency in the Principal and Interest Account for the payment of the principal and interest on
the Bonds,the deficiency will be made up from amounts available in the Reserve Account. Any deficiency
created in the Reserve Account will be made up from Gross Revenue first available after making necessary
provisions for the required payments into the Principal and Interest Account.
The Reserve Account will be funded from an initial deposit of approximately$542,300 from the balance in
the reserve account created for the City's Water and Sewer Refunding and Improvement Revenue Bonds,
1992 that was fully retired as of June 1,2002 with the remaining balance accumulated from Gross Revenue

12 I
Outstanding Bonds and Debt Service Requirements •
Giving effect to the issuance of the Bonds,the City will have a total of$27,315,000 in principal of Bonds,
the 1998 Bonds and Outstanding Parity Bonds. The Annual Debt Service during fiscal year 2002 on the
Bonds, the 1998 Bonds and Outstanding Parity Bonds is $2,906,642. The initial Net Revenue (Gross
Revenue less Maintenance and Operation Expense)requirement of the Waterworks Utility based on a Net
Revenue coverage of 1.30 times the estimated Annual Debt Service,therefore,will be$3,778,635 in fiscal
year 2002. Based on the actual Net Revenue figure for fiscal year 2001 of$8,585,185,debt service coverage
is anticipated to be 2.95 times. The City may,however,issue Future Parity Bonds to finance capital needs of
the Waterworks Utility as described below that would reduce the debt service coverage below such level.

APPROVAL OF BOND COUNSEL
Legal matters incident to the authorization, issuance and sale of the Bonds by the City are subject to the
unqualified approving legal opinion of Gottlieb, Fisher & Andrews, PLLC, Seattle, Washington, Bond
Counsel. Fees payable to Gottlieb,Fisher&Andrews, Seattle,PLLC,Washington, as Bond Counsel, are
contingent upon the issuance of Bonds. Bond Counsel has reviewed this document only to confirm that the
portions of it describing the Bonds and the authority of the City to issue them conform to the Bonds, the
applicable laws under which they were issued and the language regarding federal income tax exemption. A
form of the legal opinion is included herein in Appendix E.
TAX EXEMPTION
In the opinion of Gottlieb,Fisher&Andrews,PLLC,Bond Counsel,as of the date of issue of the Bonds(the
"Date of Issue"), and provided the City complies with applicable requirements of the Code which must be
satisfied subsequent to the issuance thereof, the Bonds are not"private activity bonds,"as defined by the
Code;interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes under existing
federal law; and such interest is not an item of tax preference for purposes of determining the alternative
minimum tax on individuals and corporations under existing federal law. However,under existing federal
law,interest on the Bonds received by certain corporations is to be taken into account in the computation of
adjusted current earnings for purposes of calculating the alternative minimum tax applicable to such
corporations; such interest received by certain S corporations may be subject to tax; and such interest
received by foreign corporations with United States branches maybe subject to a foreign branch profits tax.
Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any other federal tax consequences of receipt of interest on the
Bonds. Potential purchasers of the Bonds should consult with their tax advisorsas to all possible tax
consequences of ownership of the Bonds. See also, "Other Tax Consequences,"herein.
The Code contains certain requirements which must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds in
order to maintain the tax treatment described above,including requirements relating to the application of the
proceeds of the Bonds, use of facilities which are financed with such proceeds, limitations on income
20
derived from the investment of gross proceeds of the Bonds (as defined in Section 148 of the Code), and
- rebate to the United States Treasury of certain of such investment income on such gross proceeds. The City
has covenanted to comply with these requirements; and the opinion of Bond Counsel described in the
preceding paragraph assumes such compliance. However,Bond Counsel has not undertaken and shall not
undertake to monitor compliance by the City with such requirements and failure of the City to comply with
r- such requirements could cause the interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income
tax purposes,and could be treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of the alternative minimum tax
on individuals and corporations, in each case,retroactive to the Date of Issue.
OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES
Under current federal law: . •
1. Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax. The interest on tax-exempt obligations received by a
- corporation is taken into account in the computation of the alternative minimum tax applicable to
corporations (as defined for federal income tax purposes). Under current federal law, the alternative
minimum taxable income of such a corporation (other than an S corporation, a regulated investment
company, a real estate investment,trust or a REMIC) is increased by 75% of the amount by which the
"adjusted current earnings" of the corporation exceeds the corporation's alternative minimum taxable
income determined without regard to such increase and any alternative tax net operating loss deduction.
Interest on tax-exempt obligations,'whenever issued or acquired,including,interest on the Bonds,is included
in the computation of"adjusted net book income"and"adjusted current earnings."
I I
2. Tax on Excess Passive Investment Income of S Corporations. Certain excess net passive
- investment income,including interest on the Bonds,received by an S corporation(a corporation treated as a
partnership for most federal tax purposes)that has "subchapter C earnings and profits" at the close of its
taxable year may be subject to federal income tax at the highest rate applicable to corporations if more than
25% of the gross receipts of such S corporation for such taxable year is passive investment income.
3. Foreign Corporation Branch Profits Tax. Interest on the Bonds received by certain foreign
' corporations doing business in the United States maybe subject to a branch profits tax applicable to such
corporations that is based on their United States source earnings and profits,including tax-exempt interest on
obligations such as the Bonds.
4. Elimination of Interest Deduction for Financial Institutions. The Bonds are not"qualified tax-
exempt obligations"for purposes of the 80 percent financial institution interest expense deduction permitted
pursuant to.the Code. None of the interest expense incurred by banks and other financial institutions
allocable to the purchase or carrying of the Bonds may be deducted by such institution.
5. Reduction of Loss Deduction for Property and Casualty Insurance Companies. Interest on tax-
exempt obligations,including the Bonds,received by property and casualty insurance companies,will reduce
tax deductions for loss reserves otherwise available to such companies by an amount equal to 15 percent of
such tax-exempt interest received during the taxable year.
6. , Social Security and Tier 1 Railroad Retirement Benefits Subject to Tax. Interest received or
accrued during the year from tax-exempt obligations, such as the Bonds, is included in the calculation of
•
21
"modified adjusted gross income"of recipients of the social security or tier 1 railroad retirement benefits. If
the sum of the"modified adjusted gross income'.'for the taxable year plus one-halfof the social security or
tier 1 railroad retirement benefits received during the taxable year exceeds a base amount provided by the
Code(the"excess amount"),then the lesser of(i)one-half of the social security or tier 1 railroad retirement
benefits received during the taxable year or(ii) one-half of the "excess amount", is included in the gross
income of the social security or tier 1 railroad retirement benefit recipient.
Covenant Against Arbitrage
The City has covenanted that it will not take or permit to be taken on its behalf any action that would
adversely affect the exclusion of the interest on the Bonds from gross income for purposes of federal income
taxation, and will take or require to be taken such acts as may be permitted by State law and as may from
time to time be required under applicable law to continue the exclusion of the interest on the Bonds from the
gross income for purposes of federal income taxation. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,the
City has covenanted that it will not invest or make or permit any use of the proceeds of the Bonds or of its
other money at any time during the term of the Bonds which would cause the Bonds to be"arbitrage bonds"
within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code. .
The City further covenants that it will not take any action or permit any action to be taken that would cause
the Bonds to constitute"private activity bonds"under Section 141 of the Code.
Original Issue Discount
The Bonds maturing on December 1 in the years 2008 through 2012,and 2014 through 2017,each inclusive,
are"Discount Bonds." In the opinion of Bond Counsel,the difference between the principal amount of the
Discount Bonds and the initial offering price to the public (excluding bond houses, brokers, or similar
persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriter or wholesalers) at which price a substantial
amount of such Discount Bonds of the same maturity was sold constitutes original issue discount,which is
excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes to the same extent as interest on the Discount
Bonds. Further,this original issue discount accrues over the term of each Discount Bond on the basis of a
constant yield to maturity and the basis of each Discount Bond acquired at such initial'offering price by an
initial purchaser of such Discount Bonds will be increased by the'amount of such accrued original issue
discount.
Original Issue Premium
The Bonds maturing on December 1 in years 2003 through 2007,and 2018 through 2022,each inclusive,are
"Premium Bonds." The difference between the principal amount of Premium Bonds and the initial offering
price to the public(excluding bond houses,brokers,or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity
of underwriters or wholesalers) at which price a substantial amount of such Premium Bonds of the same
maturity was sold constitutes amortizable bond premium,which may not be deducted for federal income tax
purposes. For purposes of determining gain or loss on the sale of other disposition of a Premium Bond,the
basis of each Premium Bond acquired at such initial offering price by an initial purchaser is decreased by the
amount of the bond premium that has been amortized. Further, this amortizable bond premium is
determined on the basis of a constant yield to maturity over the term of each Premium Bond. This
22
amortizable bond premium may be taken into account in determining the amount of alternative minimum
tax, environmental tax and branch profits tax described below. Owners of Premium Bonds are advised to
consult with their own advisors with respect to other federal and state tax consequences of owning the
Premium Bonds.
NO LITIGATION CONCERNING THE BONDS
There is no controversy or litigation of any nature now pending or,to the knowledge of the City,threatened,
restraining or enjoining the issuance, sale, execution or delivery of the Bonds, or in any way contesting or
affecting the validity of the Bonds, any proceedings of the City taken with respect to the issuance or sale
thereof,or affecting the ability of the City to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds.

simultaneously with such disposition,all Parity Bonds are defeased pursuant to the provisions of the Ordinance.It will
not dispose of any part of the Waterworks Utility(other than timber),including all additions and improvements thereto

(a) An amount which will be in the same proportion to the net amount of any Parity Bonds then

and any Parity Bond Funds) that Gross Revenue from the portion of the Waterworks Utility disposed of for the
preceding year bears to the total Gross Revenue for that period;
(b) An amount which will be in the same proportion to the net amount of any Parity Bonds then
outstanding(as defined above)that the Net Revenue from the portion of the Waterworks Utility disposed of for the

outstanding(as defined above)that the depreciated cost value of the facilities disposed of bears to the depreciated cost I ,
value of the entire Waterworks Utility immediately prior to such sale or disposition.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Ordinance concerning such disposition,(a)the City in its discretion
may dispose of any of the works,plant,properties or facilities of the Waterworks Utility or any real or personal property
comprising a part of the same which becomes unserviceable,inadequate,obsolete or unfit to be used in the operation of
the Waterworks Utility,or no longer necessary,material to or useful to the operation of the Waterworks Utility,without •
making any deposit into the Bond Fund, and(b)the City may transfer the Waterworks Utility to another municipal
corporation so long as Net Revenue of the portion of the Waterworks Utility so transferred is used for payment of debt
service on the Parity Bonds prior to any other purpose. Such proceeds will not be treated as Gross Revenue.
Books and Accounts. Prior to the New Covenant Date,it will,while any of the Bonds remain outstanding,
keep proper and separate accounts and records in which complete and separate entries will be made of all transactions

After the New Covenant Date,the City has covenanted that it will keep proper books,records and accounts
with respect to the operations,income and expenditures of the Waterworks Utility in accordance with proper accounting
procedures and any applicable rules and regulations prescribed by the State. It will prepare annual financial and
operating statements within 270 days of the close of each fiscal year showing in reasonable detail the financial

outstanding. On at least an annual basis,it will determine all accounts that are-delinquent and will take all necessary
action to enforce payment of such accounts against those property owners whose accounts are delinquent.
Insurance. Prior to the New Covenant Date,it will carry the types of insurance on the Waterworks Utility
properties in the amounts normally carried by private water and sewer companies engaged in the operation of water and
sewerage systems,and the cost of such insurance will be considered a part of operating and maintaining such utility. If,
as,and when the United States of America or some agency thereof will provide for war risk insurance,the City further
agrees to take out and maintain such insurance on all or such portions of such utility on which such war risk insurance
may be written in an amount or amounts to cover adequately the value thereof.
After the New Covenant Date,it at all times will carry fire and extended coverage and such other forms of
insurance,including public liability and property damage insurance,with responsible insurers and with policies payable
_ to or on behalf of the City and any additional insureds on such of the buildings,equipment,works,plants,facilities and
properties of the Waterworks Utility,and against such claims for damages, as are ordinarily carried by municipal or
privately owned utilities engaged in the operation of like systems,or will implement and maintain a self-insurance or an
insurance pool program with reserves adequate, in the reasonable judgment of the City, to protect the Waterworks
Utility and the Owners of the Parity Bonds against loss.
Obligations. It will pay all Maintenance and Operation Expense and the debt service requirements for the
Outstanding Parity Bonds,the outstanding 1998 Bonds and the outstanding Bonds,and otherwise meet the obligations
of the City as set forth in the Ordinance.
I '
Preservation of Tax Exemption. It will take all actions necessary to prevent interest on the Bonds from being
included in gross income for federal income tax'purposes,and it will neither take any action nor make or permit any use
of proceeds of the Bonds or other funds of the City treated as proceeds of the Bonds at any time during the term of the
Bonds which will cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes. It will,
to the extent arbitrage rebate,requirements of Section 148 of the Code are applicable to the Bonds, take all action
necessary to comply (or to be treated as having complied) with those requirements in connection with the Bonds,
Including the calculation and payment of any penalties that the City has elected to pay as an alternative to calculating
rebatable arbitrage,and the payment of any other penalties if required under Section 148 of the Code to prevent interest
on the Bonds from being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes.
Future Parity Bonds
After the New Covenant Date,the City will no longer have the right to issue Bonds on a parity with the 1993
Refunding Bonds and the 1994 Bonds.The City reserves the right to issue Future Parity Bonds with a lien upon the
Revenue of the Waterworks Utility equal to the lien of the 1998 Bonds and the Bonds,so long as there is not deficiency
1 in the Parity Bond Fund and if the following conditions are met and complied with at the time of issuance of the Future
Parity Bonds:
(a) A certificate is delivered certifying that the Net Revenue will be at least equal to the Coverage
Requirement If Net Revenue from any 12 consecutive months of the preceding 36 months prior to the date of issuance
of additional bonds is equal to the Coverage Requirement,the City Finance Director will be entitled to deliver such
certification. If Net Revenue includes adjustments to reflect changes in the schedule of rates and charges,customers
added to the Utility,or changes to revenues and expenses reflecting completion of any facilities under construction or to
be acquired, constructed or installed from proceeds of any Future Parity Bonds,the certification will be signed by a
Professional Utility Consultant. For the purposes of calculating the Coverage Requirement for the issuance of Future
Parity Bonds,in neither case will Net Revenue reflect deposits into or withdrawals from the Rate Stabilization Fund.
A-9
(b) The ordinance authorizing the issuance of Future Parity Bonds will provide that an amount equal to the 1
increase in the Reserve Requirement attributable to the Future Parity Bonds to be issued be deposited to the Reserve
Fund from proceeds of the Future Parity Bonds or other available funds. If then existing federal tax law precludes the
deposit of sufficient funds from proceeds of the Future Parity Bonds,the remaining amount will be accumulated in not
less than three years from the date of issuance of the Future Parity Bonds in approximately equal annual deposits.The
Reserve Requirement can be met by the purchase of Reserve Insurance or Alternate Security.

theaters, an opera company, and four resident dance groups. The area is also the home to more than 3,000
artists and 1,300•arts organizations.
The Kingdome,former home to the National Football League's Seattle Seahawks and the American Baseball
League's Seattle Mariners,was demolished in March 2000 to make way for a new stadium/exhibition center.
The Kingdome, which was located adjacent to Seattle's central business district, served as a major sports,
concert and convention center for the Northwest for over 20 years.A public facilities district was created in
1996 to build a new world-class football%soccer stadium for use by the Seahawks as well as parking facilities,
an exhibition hall, and demolition of the Kingdome. In 1997, voters statewide approved the issuance of
general obligation bonds by the State to'pay for the project,which is expected to cost$425 million,with$300
million paid from public sources. The stadium design includes a 72,000 seat capacity(including 7,000 club
seats and 82 suites) and an open-air,;natural grass facility that will provide 70% of the fans with roof
protection. The exhibition center was completed in November 1999 and the stadium is to be completed in
July 2002 with the first game scheduled to be played in the stadium in August 2002. Seattle's new ballpark
for the Mariners (SAFECO Field) was completed in July 1999. The ballpark was constructed for $518
million,has a baseball capacity of 46,621 fans, and includes real grass and a retractable roof that covers the
ballpark but does not enclose it.
The Seattle Center,located one mile north of the central business district of Seattle,was the site for the 1962
World's Fair and it continues to be a popular attraction for residents and tourists alike. The 74-acre, year-
round convention and family entertainment center includes the Pacific Science Center, Coliseum, Seattle
Opera House,Key Arena,Memorial Stadium, Space Needle,the Experience Music Project and a number of
meeting and display rooms: Key Arena serves as the home of Seattle's third major league sports team, the
National Basketball Association's Seattle Supersonics. A major renovation project was recently completed at
the Coliseum.

The local forest products industry includes the manufacture of lumber,plywood,paper products,furniture,
acoustical materials and specialty wood products. Timber in the region is harvested under sustained-yield
programs on federal,state and private timberlands. The leading forest products employer is the Weyerhaeuser
Company,which operates lumber mills locally and has its corporate headquarters and a major research and
development center in southwestern portion of the County. Employment and production levels within this
industry locally have been and are expected to be further impacted by recent decisions by the federal
government and the courts concerning the exporting of raw logs and-restrictions on the harvesting of trees on
federal lands in"old growth"forests. The extent of such impact is unknown at this time. The wood and paper
products industry accounts for approximately one percent of the total Seattle PMSA employment.
Higher Education
The University of Washington(the"University")is one of the oldest and largest state assisted universities on
the West Coast. Its primary campus is located in Seattle with satellite campuses located in Bothell and
Tacoma. Established in 1861,the University has 16 schools and colleges offering instruction in more than
200 academic disciplines. Undergraduate and graduate student enrollment for winter semester 2001-02 was
39,017. The University has a biennial operating budget of approximately$3.27 billion and consistently ranks
among the top five institutions of higher learning in the United States when measured by the receipt of federal
grants. The largest share of this funding goes to the University of Washington School of Medicine.
Harborview Medical Center is the University's teaching hospital. Every physician practicing at Harborview is
a member of the University's School of Medicine faculty. This relationship has been essential to
Harborview's developmentof outstanding patient care services including the region's burn,trauma,epilepsy,
' and spinal cord rehabilitation centers. Other higher education facilities in the Seattle area include two private
four-year universities,Seattle Pacific University(3,615 enrollment)and Seattle University(5,903 enrollment),
and seven community colleges.
Services,Tourism,Recreation and Conventions
The Seattle area is the health care center of the Pacific Northwest. There are 26 general-acute and four special
purpose hospitals,more than 4,500 beds, and approximately 3,000 physicians.
The State's fourth largest industry is tourism. There are over 8,000 hotel rooms in over 50 hotels and motels •
in downtown Seattle. Seattle ranks in the top five cities in the nation in terms of hotel occupancy with 2001
occupancy rates of 73.4%with room rates averaging$147.54 per night. According to the Seattle-King County
Convention and Visitors Bureau, 398,000 convention goers added approximately $366 million to the
economy. The Washington State Convention and Trade Center currently occupies 102,000 square feet of
heavy load exhibition space and an expansion of approximately 105,000 square feet of which 70,000 square
feet is designed as clear span,column-free space is almost complete. The Convention Center has the capacity
to hold events involving as many as 11,000 people. In 2001, the Convention Center held 535 total events,
including national and local events. It is estimated that the Convention Center generates direct spending by
visitors of over$200 million annually on hotels,restaurants,entertaining,transportation and retail shopping.
Bordered on the west by Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains and on the east by the Cascade Mountain
range,the 2,128 square miles in the County offer many types of outdoor recreation. The County and the City
of Seattle maintain over 9,000 acres of parkland. The Seattle area has several symphony orchestras, five

Transportation
Seattle is bordered on the west by Elliott Bay,a natural harbor on Puget Sound,which is one of the nation's
leading seaports. The Port of Seattle (the "Port"), a County-wide port district, promotes maritime trade, ` '
particularly foreign trade and the employment of containerized cargo facilities, and has developed and is
continually improving a system of marine terminals,piers and associated facilities on Seattle's waterfront.The
Port is the fifth largest container portlin the U.S. and the 20th largest in the world. Served by 26 regularly
scheduled steamship lines, it is the top U.S. port in container tonnage exports to Asia. In 1997, the Port
completed construction of an$87.8 million multiple-use development on the downtown Seattle waterfront,.
which includes a transient moorage, fish processing, and cruise ship berthing support facilities, a marine
museum,an international conference center and a public plaza. The Port also operates the Seattle-Tacoma
International Airport ("SeaTac") which serves 21 major air carriers and five commuter airlines and is the
leading air travel and shipping center!of the Pacific Northwest. SeaTac is located approximately seven miles
west of the City
King County International Airport (.`Boeing Field"), a general aviation facility operated by the County, is
located in Seattle. With about 410,000 annual operations(takeoffs and landings),Boeing Field is the busiest.
such facility in the region and ranks among the top 15 busiest in the nation. It serves as the primary inclement
weather alternate for SeaTac.
Seattle is the western terminus of two primary east-west freeway systems: Interstate Route 90 and State Route
520,and is traversed by north-south Interstate Route 5 and State Route 99. The portion of I-90 that connects
Seattle with eastside communities I cross Lake Washington was expanded to eight lanes at a cost of$1.2
billion in the early 1990's. In addition to the highway system,the Washington State Ferry System provides
convenient transportation between Seattle and pointsacrossPuget Sound to the west.
In 1996,voters in King,Pierce and Snohomish counties approved a$3.9 billion regional transit measure. The
transit system is currently under construction,expected to take ten years to build and will consist of electric
light rail,commuter rail and express buses. A four-mile-long light rail tunnel from downtown Seattle to the
University District is the most expensive component at$865 million. The transit system will be funded in
large part with increases in local sales taxes and vehicle license fees. Some federal funds will be contributed.
Fishing,Agriculture and Forest Products
Seattle is the homeport for a major salmon and halibut fishing fleet. Approximately 700 fishing boats are.
based at the Port's Fishermen's Terminal on Salmon Bay,part of the fresh-water system of lakes and canals
connected to Puget Sound by the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks,which are operated by the US Army Corps of
Engineers. Fish received in Seattle are largely for fresh market distribution and for freeze processing. Seattle
is also a warehousing and distribution center for fish processed elsewhere in the Northwest,principally in
Alaska. .
Agriculture in the County consists primarily of dairy fanning,truck gardening,horticulture and the raising of
livestock and poultry. The Seattle area is a major center in the Northwest for agricultural supply,distribution
and marketing as well as for food handling and processing and the manufacture of food packaging and
containers.

diversification activities including Boeing Computer Services. Boeing has six major divisions to carry out
business activities, which include Air Traffic Management, Boeing Capital Corporation, Commercial
Airplanes, Connexion by Boeing,Military Aircraft and Missile Systems, and Space and Communications.
In 1996,Boeing acquired the aerospace and defense operations of Rockwell International Corporation and in
1997 merged with McDonnell Douglas,its only U.S.commercial airline rival and the world's largest builder
of military aircraft, for approximately $16.3 billion. In recent years, Boeing has strived to streamline
workforce operations and facilities. Since 1998, Boeing has reduced its total workforce from 231,260 to
176,200(as of May 2002),a decrease of approximately 55,060(23.8%)employees. Since 1998,Boeing has
reduced the total work force in Washington from 98,440 to 66,900 (as of May 2002), a decrease of
approximately 31,540(32.0%)employees. Boeing's Washington employees are located largely in the Puget
Sound Region,which currently has 19 Boeing sites/locations, including the.Renton Plant at Renton Field.
As of 2001, Boeing employed 19,463 people at its Renton Plant, a decrease from approximately 20,000
(2.8%)employees as of 1998. As of the date of this Official Statement,it cannot be predicted if there will be
further Boeing layoffs that will impact the Renton Plant or other Puget Sound Region operations. The Renton
Plant is one of Boeing's major production sites with a 330-acre site encompassing approximately 7.7 million
square feet of building space. Over the years,the Airplane Programs site in Renton has been home to many of
commercial aviation's most famous airplanes,including the 707,727,737 and 757. Approximately 40%of
the world's commercial jetliner fleet is produced at the Renton Plant. The ground floor of Renton's final
r assembly building for the Boeing 737 and 757 covers 760,000 square feet.Activities at'other main buildings at
the Renton site include sub-assembly, wing-line production and a paint hangar. The remaining buildings
house administrative and engineering personnel and materiel handling. Renton Airport, located west of the
- main site,is used by Boeing to perform pre-flight tests on all 737s and 757s before they make their initial test
flight.After the flight tests,the airplanes land at Boeing Field in Seattle,where final preparations are made
before they are delivered to customers. I •
In September 2001,Boeing announced that it planned to lay off 30,000 employees in the next year. Boeing
planned to cut 10%of its total commercial airplane workforce by December 2001, and then would consider
laying off an additional 10%by mid 2002 and another 10%by the end of 2002 until the target of 25,000 to
30,000 jobs are cuts from operations.
Technology
The Seattle PMSA has experienced a substantial development of high technology,electronics and computer-
related enterprises particularly over the last decade. More than 1,500 computer development firms are located
in the Seattle PMSA. Microsoft, which is headquartered in Redmond, Washington, is the largest
microcomputer software company in the world,with 2001 gross sales worldwide of$25.3 billion,increasing
I from$23.0 billion in 2000. Other leading employers include Sundstrand Data Control,Inc. (electronics and
aerospace systems), ELDEC Corporation (electronic equipment), John Fluke Manufacturing Company

KING COUNTY ECONOMIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
Local Economic Overview
The City is located in northwestern Washington in County. The City is located approximately 20 miles
southeast of the City of Seattle and approximately 60 miles northeast of the City of Olympia, the State's
capital.
The County,with a population of 1,758,300,encompasses 2,128 square miles,ranking 1 lth in geographical
size of Washington's 39 counties but first in population. Seattle is the largest city in the Pacific Northwest
and serves as the County seat. The County and Snohomish and Island Counties to the north together comprise
the Seattle Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area (the "Seattle PMSA"), which is the fourth-largest
metropolitan center on the Pacific Coast. In addition to the City and the City of Seattle,principal cities of the
Seattle PMSA include Auburn, Bellevue, Bothell, Burien, Federal Way, Issaquah, Kent, Kirkland, Mercer
Island, Redmond, Shoreline, and Woodinville, all of which are in the County, and Everett, Edmonds,
Mountlake Terrace and Lynnwood in Snohomish County. These communities serve as residential,
commercial, and industrial satellites,of Seattle.
Seattle PMSA's employment base is well diversified, with strengths in manufacturing, trade services and
government sectors. In 2000,manufacturing comprised about 10.5%of the area's employment,with aircraft
production representing the largest component. In the non-manufacturing sectors, services was the largest
sector with over 34.5% of the total employment, wholesale and retail trade comprised almost 21.9% and
government and public education 11.0%. The services industry contributed 38.9% of the total earnings by
industries in the County, the most of all industries, followed by wholesale and retail trade with 15.7% and
manufacturing with 13.1%.The U.S.Defense Department is one of the largest employers in the Puget Sound
region. Major facilities include Fort Lewis Army Base in Pierce County,the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in
Bremerton(Kitsap County), Bangor Naval Submarine Base in Kitsap County,McChord Air Force Base in
Pierce County and Naval Station Everett.
The area's universities and research institutions serve as catalysts in the expansion of high tech industries.
Other key factors that support continued growth include the existing industry base;a well-trained labor force;
relatively low cost power; and a progressive business climate with excellent transportation access to
worldwide markets.
Aircraft Manufacturing—The Boeing Company
Manufacturing in the area consists primarily of aircraft manufacturing by the Boeing Company("Boeing").
Boeing is the largest aerospace company in the world,as measured by total sales,and is consistently one of the
nation's top three exporters. In May 2001, Boeing moved its world headquarters and approximately 1,200
employees from Seattle to Chicago to allow the corporate staff to focus on the direction of the company rather
than day-to-day operations. Boeing remains the area's largest employer with several locations in the Puget
Sound region.
In 2001, Boeing reported total revenues of $58 billion. While the primary activity of Boeing is the
manufacture of commercial aircraft, Boeing has played leading roles in the aerospace and military missile
programs of the United States human space flight, launch services and has undertaken a broad program of

CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
Contract/Undertaking
This section, as found in the Ordinance, constitutes the City's written undertaking for the benefit of the
owners of the Bonds as required by Section(b)(5)the Rule(the"Undertaking").
Financial Statements/Operating Data
P g
In the Ordinance,the City agrees to provide or cause to be provided to each then existing NRMSIR and to
the SD, if one is created, the following annual financial information and operating data(collectively,the
"Annual Financial Information") for each prior-fiscal year, commencing with the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2002, on or before the last day of the seventh month following the end of such prior fiscal
year:
(a) Annual financial statements prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles
applicable to governmental units,as such principles may be changed from time to time and as permitted by
State law; which statements will not be audited, except that if and when audited financial statements are
otherwise prepared and available to the City,they will be provided(the"Annual Financial Statements");
(b) A statement of authorized,issued and outstanding bonded debt secured by the Gross Revenue or Net
Revenue;
(c) Debt service coverage ratios;
(d) General customer statistics for the Waterworks Utility; and
(e) A narrative explanation of the reasons for any amendments to the Ordinance made during the
previous fiscal year and the impact of such amendments on the Annual Financial Information being
provided.
In its provision of such financial information and operating data,the City may cross-reference to any"final
official statement" (as defined in the Rule) available from the MSRB or any other documents theretofore
provided to each then existing NRMSIR or the SID,if one is created.
If not submitted as part of the Annual Financial Information, then when and if available, the City shall -
provide its Annual Financial Statements, which shall have been audited by such auditor as shall be then
required or permitted by the State law, to each then existing NRMSIR and to the SID,if one is created.
Material Events
The City further agrees to provide or cause to be provided,in a timely manner,to the SID,if any,and to each
NRMSIR or to the MSRB notice of the occurrence of any of the following events with respect to the Bonds,
if such event is material:
(1) principal and interest payment delinquencies;
D-2
(2) non-payment related defaults;
(3) unscheduled draws on debt service reserves reflecting financial difficulties;
(4) unscheduled draws on credit enhancements reflecting financial difficulties;
(5) substitution of credit or liquidity providers or their failure to perform;
(6) adverse tax opinions or events affecting the tax-exempt status of the Bonds;
(7) modifications to the rights of Bond holders;
(8) optional redemption of Bonds prior to their maturity;

to either the MSRB or each then existing NRMSIR, notice of its failure to provide the Annual Financial
Information for the prior fiscal year on or before the last day of the seventh month following the end of such
prior fiscal year.
After the issuance of the Bonds, so long as the interests of the Owners or Beneficial Owners of the Bonds
will not be materially impaired thereby, as determined by a party unaffiliated with the City (including,
without limitation, a trustee for the Owners,nationally recognized bond counsel or other counsel familiar
'- with the federal securities law), or pursuant to a favorable "no-action letter" issued by the SEC, this
Undertaking and the provisions with respect thereto in the Ordinance may only be amended in connection
with any change in legal requirements, change in law, or change in the identity, nature or status of the
obligated person,or type of business conducted,and only in such a manner that the undertaking of the City,
as so amended,would have complied with the requirements of the Rule at the time of the primary offering,
after taking into account any amendments or interpretations of the Rule, as well as any change in
circumstances.
The City's obligations to provide Annual Financial Information and notices of certain events shall terminate
without amendment upon the defeasance,prior redemption or payment in full of all of the then outstanding
Bonds. This Undertaking and the provisions with respect thereto in the Ordinance shall be null and void if
the City (i)obtains an opinion of nationally recognized bond counsel or other counsel familiar with the
- federal securities laws to the effect that those portions of the Rule which require this Undertaking or any
such provision are invalid, have been repealed retroactively or otherwise do not apply to the Bonds; and
(ii)notifies and provides the SID,if any,and either the MSRB or each then existing NRMSIR with copies of
such opinion.
- The right of each Owner or Beneficial Owner of Bonds to enforce the provisions of the City's Undertaking
I D-3
shall be limited to the right to obtain specific enforcement of the City's obligations under the Ordinance with
respect thereto, and any failure by the City to comply with the provisions of this Undertaking shall not be a
default with respect to the Bonds under the Ordinance.
The City Finance and Information Services Administrator is authorized and directed to take such further
action on behalf of the City as may be necessary,appropriate orconvenient to carry out the requirements of
this Undertaking.

Form of Approving Opinion of
Gottlieb,Fisher&Andrews,PLLC,
Bond Counsel
[Date of Issue]
City of Renton a
Renton,Washington 98058
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as bond counsel in connection with the issuance by the City of Renton,
Washington(the"City"), of the bonds described below(the"Bonds"):
$11,980,000
CITY OF RENTON,WASHINGTON
WATER AND SEWER REVENUE BONDS,2002
Dated: July 1, 2002
The Bonds are issued pursuant to Ordinance No. 4976 of the City(the"Bond
therewith. The Bonds are
Ordinance") and other proceedings duly had and taken in conformity
p g Y
issued for the purpose of providing a part of the funds necessary to pay the cost of carrying out
certain additions to and betterments and extensions of the Waterworks Utility and paying the
costs related to the sale and issuance of the Bonds, all as specified in the Bond Ordinance.
The Bonds are issued as fully registered bonds in the denomination of$5,000 each or in
any integral multiple thereof within a single maturity. The Bonds bear interest from their date or
from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for,
whichever is later,payable on December 1,2002, and semiannually thereafter on June 1 and
December 1 of each year to the maturity or earlier redemption thereof. The Bonds bear interest
at the rates and shall mature on December 1 of each of the years and in the principal amounts set
forth below:

2022 1,100,000 5.25
The Bonds are subject to'redemption prior to maturity at the times and in the manner
described in the Bond Ordinance.
In rendering this opinion'letter,we have examined the following: (i)the Bond
Ordinance; (ii) one executed and authenticated Bond(we assume that all other Bonds are in the
same form and have been similarly executed and authenticated); and(iii) the certified
proceedings of the City and other certificates of public officials and representatives of the City
which have been furnished to us and which comprise the transcript of proceedings pertaining to
the issuance of the Bonds (the"Transcript").
As to questions of fact material to the opinions expressed herein,we have relied upon the
certified proceedings of the City and other certificates of public officials and representatives of
the City which have been furnished to us as part of the Transcript, all without undertaking to
verify the same by independent investigation.
Based only upon the foregoing and our examination of such questions of law as we have
deemed necessary or appropriate for the purpose of this opinion letter, and subject to the
limitations and qualifications expressed below,we are of the opinion that, as of this date:
1. The Bonds are lawfully authorized and issued pursuant to and in full compliance
with the Constitution and statutes of the State of Washington,the Bond Ordinance and
Ordinance No. 4709 of the City.
E-3
1 I
� I
� I
2. The Gross Revenue(as defined in the Bond Ordinance)hereafter collected has
been pledged to the payments to be made into the"2002 Waterworks Revenue Bond Account"
(the"Bond Fund") as set forth in the Bond Ordinance, and the Bonds constitute a lien and charge
on that revenue prior and superior to any other charges whatsoever, excluding Maintenance and
Operation Expense(defined in the Bond Ordinance), except that the lien and charge on such
Gross Revenue for the Bonds shall be on a parity with the lien and charge thereon for the
Outstanding Parity Bonds (defined in the Bond Ordinance),the City's Water and Sewer Revenue
Refunding Bonds, 1998, and any Future Parity,Bonds (defined in the Bond Ordinance).
3. The Bonds are legal,valid and binding special fund revenue obligations of the
City,payable solely out of the Bond Fund, enforceable against the City in accordance with their
terms, subject to the limitations as to enforceability of laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization,moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights, and also to'the
exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with general principles of equity. The Bonds are not
general obligations of the City.
4. The Bonds are not"private activity bonds," as defined in the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended(the"Code").
5. Assuming compliance by the City with applicable requirements of the Code that
must be met subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds,the interest on the Bonds is excluded from
the gross income for federal income tax purposes under existing federal law, and such interest is
not an item of tax preference for purposes of determining alternative minimum taxable income
for individuals and corporations under existing federal law. However,under existing federal
law,interest on the Bonds received by certain corporations is taken into account in the
computation of adjusted current earnings for purposes of calculating the alternative minimum tax
applicable to such corporations; such interest received by foreign corporations with United States
branches may be subject to a foreign branch profits tax; and such interest received by certain S
corporations may be subject to tax.
6. The difference between the principal amount of the Bonds maturing in the years
2008 through 2012, and 2014 through 2017, each inclusive(the"Discount Bonds"), and the
initial offering price to the public (excluding bond houses,brokers and similar persons or
organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters or wholesalers) at which price a substantial
amount of such Discount Bonds of the same maturity was sold constitutes original issue
discount,which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes to the same
extent as interest on the Discount Bonds. Further,this original issue discount accrues over the
term of each Discount Bond on the basis of a constant yield to maturity and the basis of each
Discount Bond acquired at such initial offering price by an initial purchaser of such Discount
Bonds will be increased by the amount of such accrued original issue discount.
Except as stated in the preceding paragraphs 4, 5 and 6,we express no opinion as to any
federal or state tax consequences of the ownership or disposition of the Bonds.
• E-4
The Code contains certain requirements which must be satisfied subsequent to the date of
issue of the Bonds in order to maintain the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income
for federal income tax purposes, including requirements relating to application of the proceeds of
the Bonds, use of facilities financed with such proceeds, limitations on income derived from the
investment of gross proceeds of the Bonds (as defined in Section 148 of the Code), and rebate to
the United States Treasury of certain investment earnings on such gross proceeds. The City has
covenanted to comply with these requirements, and the opinions expressed in paragraphs 4, 5
and 6 assume such compliance. However,we have not undertaken and do not undertake to
monitor compliance by the City with such requirements; and failure of the City to comply with
such requirements could cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal
income tax purposes and to be treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of the alternative
minimum tax on individuals and corporations,in each case,retroactive to the date of issue of the
Bonds.
We have not been engaged to participate in the preparation or review of, or express any
opinion concerning the completeness or accuracy of,the official statement or other disclosure
documentation used in connection with the offer or sale of the Bonds, and thus express no
opinion concerning the completeness or accuracy thereof.
Copies of this opinion letter may be delivered to the Owners of the Bonds,who may rely
on this opinion letter as if it were addressed to them on the date hereof. Subject to the foregoing,
this opinion letter may be relied upon by you only in connection with the issuance of the Bonds
and may not be used or relied upon by you or any other person for any other purpose whatsoever,
without in each instance our prior written consent. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to
advise you or any Owners of any developments in areas covered by this opinion letter that occur
after the date hereof.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
This Certificate, prepared by Economic and Engineering Services, Inc. (the "Consulting
Engineer") at the request of the City of Renton, Washington (the "City"), is issued in
conjunction with the sale of $11,980,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2002 (the
"2002 Bonds") by the City. The 2002 Bonds are being issued pursuant to Ordinance No.
4976 of the City.
The City's right to issue parity bonds is subject to meeting the conditions set forth in
Section 15 of Ordinance No. 1450, as modified by the provisions set forth in Section 13
of Ordinance No. 3169.
Ordinance No.1450, Section 15, states in part:
r
"a) The revenues of said waterworks system, including the sewerage
system, shall be deemed sufficient after the payment of operation
and maintenance costs and taxes, based on the historical
experience of said system or the pro forma revenues under then
existing rates over a period of any 24 consecutive months out of
the 36 months immediately preceding the time of issuance of such
additional bonds, to equal at least 1.5 times the average annual
principal and interest requirements of the bonds of this issue then
outstanding and of the revenue bonds proposed to be so issued.
Such determination of the sufficiency of the revenues shall be made
and certified by an engineer experienced in municipal utilities."
Ordinance 3169, Section 13, modified this condition as follows:
"... Provided, however, that after the payment and retirement or
provision for such payment and retirement has been irrevocably
made pursuant to RCW Chapter 39.53(the "Refunding Bond Act")
of all outstanding 1977 Bonds, the 1.5 coverage requirement to be
met for the issuance of Future Parity Bonds may be reduced to a
1.3 coverage requirement."

The City of Renton's $3,045,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, 1977,
Issue No. 3, issued under the authority of Ordinance 3188, provided for the irrevocable
payment and retirement of all, outstanding 1977 ,Bonds. Therefore, the coverage
requirement to be met as a condition of issuing the proposed 2002 Bonds and as provided
in Section 15 of Ordinance No. 1450 is reduced to 1.3.
Based on our examination and analysis of the Statement of Revenues and Expenses
prepared by the City for the twenty four (24) consecutive months from January, 2000 to
December, 2001, out of the last thirty-six (36) months preceding the issuance of the 2002
Bonds (July 1999 through June 2002),EES is of the opinion that:
1. The proposed issuance of the Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2002 on a parity
with the Outstanding Parity Bonds is in compliance with provisions of Ordinance
No. 1450 and Ordinance No. 3169.

meanings set forth in(a) the Bond Ordinance or(b)where not so defined, Exhibit A hereto,
1 which is incorporated herein by this reference.
Section 2. Representations.
; '
(a) Responsible Persons. The undersigned is the Finance and Information Services
Administrator of the City and one of the persons charged by the City with responsibility for the
issuance of the Bonds, and has made due inquiry with respect to and is fully informed as to the
matters set forth in Section 3 of this Certificate.
(b) Statement as to Facts, Estimates and Circumstances. The facts, estimates and
circumstances set forth in Section 3 of this Certificate, on which the expectations of the City as
to the Bonds are based, are made'to the best of the knowledge and belief of the undersigned, and
such expectations are reasonable and made in good faith. The City understands that, for the
purposes of the Code, this Certificate constitutes evidence of the expectations of the City,but
does not establish any conclusions of law or any presumptions regarding either the actual
expectations of the City, or their;reasonableness.
(c) Basis of Representations and Expectations. The representations and expectations
of the City set forth herein are based upon:
(1) The covenants of the City contained in the Bond Ordinance; and
(2) The certifications of D.A. Davidson& Co. (the "Underwriter"), set forth
in the Underwriter's Certificate (the "Underwriter's Certificate") executed by the Underwriter
and delivered on the Date of Issue.
(3) The certifications of Financial Security Assurance Inc. (the "Bond
Insurer"), set forth in its Disclosure,No Default and Tax Certificate (the"Bond Insurer's
Certificate"), dated and delivered on the Date of Issue, and the commitment letter(the
"Commitment") of the Bond Insurer, dated June 27, 2002, setting forth the conditions to issuance
of the municipal bond insurance policy with respect to the Bonds (the "Bond Insurance Policy").
f\Renton\water sewer 02 1
The City is not aware of any facts or circumstances that would cause it to question the
accuracy, reliability or reasonableness of the certifications in the Underwriter's Certificate or the
Bond Insurer's Certificate.
(d) Purpose of Certificate. This Certificate is made in part for the purpose of
establishing the reasonable expectations of the City as to the amount and application of proceeds
of the Bonds. It is intended to be and may be relied on for the purposes of Sections 103, and 141
through 150 of the Code and as a certificate described in Treasury Regulations
Section 1.148-2(b)(2). This Certificate is being executed and delivered as part of the record of
proceedings prepared in connection with the issuance of the Bonds. The City understands that,
despite the representations and statements of expectation made in this Certificate, (1)the taking
of any deliberate, intentional action by the City after the Date of Issue in order to earn arbitrage
will cause the Bonds to be"arbitrage bonds"within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code if
such action, had it been expected on the Date of Issue,would have caused the Bonds to be
arbitrage bonds, and that an intent to violate the requirements of Section 148 of the Code is not
necessary for an action to be considered intentional within the meaning of the Code; and(2)the
taking of any deliberate action subsequent to the Date of Issue that causes the conditions of either
the private loan financing test or the private business use and repayment tests under Section 141
of the Code to be met, will cause the Bonds to be private activity bonds within the meaning of
Section 141 of the Code, and that an intent to violate the requirements of Section 141 of the
Code is not necessary for an action to be considered deliberate within the meaning of the Code.
(e) Authorization and Purposes of the Bonds. The Bonds are being issued pursuant to
the Bond Ordinance for the purpose of providing a part of the funds necessary to pay the cost of
carrying out certain additions to and betterments and extensions of the Waterworks Utility and
paying the costs related to the sale and issuance of the Bonds (the "Project").
(f) Security and Source of Payment. The Bonds are special fund revenue obligations
of the City. The principal hereof and the interest on the Bonds are payable solely out of the
Bond Fund, which shall be (1)the 2002 Waterworks Revenue Bond Account in the Waterworks
Revenue Parity Bond Fund created pursuant to the City Ordinance No. 3896 and renamed by
City Ordinance No. 4709 (until the New Covenant Date), and(2)the 2002 Waterworks Revenue
Bond Fund created pursuant to the Bond Ordinance (from and after the New Covenant Date).
- " Pursuant to the Bond Ordinance, the City has pledged and bound itself to set aside and pay into
the Bond Fund out of the Gross Revenue fixed amounts without regard to any fixed proportion,
sufficient to pay the principal and/or interest payments on the Bonds and to maintain an amount
- -- of money and assets in the Reserve Account(until the New Covenant Date) or the Reserve Fund
(from and after the New Covenant Date) at the level required by the Bond Ordinance, all within
the times provided by the Bond Ordinance. The City has pledged the Gross Revenue to the
payments to be made into the Bond Fund as set forth in the Bond Ordinance, and the Bonds shall
constitute a lien and charge upon such Gross Revenue prior and superior to any other charges
whatsoever, excluding Maintenance and Operation Expense, except that the lien and charge on
such revenue for the Bonds shall be on a parity with the lien and charge thereon for the
Outstanding Parity Bonds,the 1998 Bonds and any Future Parity Bonds.
f:\Renton\water sewer 02 2
(g) Status of City. The City is a code city duly organized under the laws of the State
of Washington.
(h) Qualification of Bond Insurance Policy as a Qualified Guaranty. Based upon the
Underwriter's Certificate, the premium to be paid to the Bond Insurer for the Bond Insurance
Policy(1) was negotiated at arm's length, and is reasonable, and (2)the present value of such
( premium(computed by using the yield-to-maturity on the Bonds, including such premium, as the
discount factor) is less than the present value of the interest reasonably expected to be saved on
the Bonds as a result of the purchase of the Bond Insurance Policy.
Based upon the certifications of the Bond Insurer set forth in the Bond Insurer's
Certificate, (A) the Bond Insurance Policy is an unconditional and recourse obligation of the
Bond Insurer to pay scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the Bonds in the event of
the failure to do so by the City; (B) the premium to be paid for the Bond Insurance Policy was
determined in arm's-length negotiations, is required to be paid as a condition to the issuance of
the Bond Insurance Policy, and is.a charge for a transfer of credit risk; (C)no portion of such
premium represents an indirect payment of costs of issuance of the Bonds, including rating
agency fees, other than fees paid by the Bond Insurer to maintain its ratings,which, together with
all other overhead expenses of the Bond Insurer, are taken into account in the formulation of its
rate structure, or for the provision of additional services by the Bond Insurer,nor the direct or
indirect payment for a cost,risk or other element that is not customarily borne by insurers of tax-
exempt bonds (in transactions in which the guarantor has no involvement other than as a
guarantor); (D) the Bond Insurer is not providing any services in connection with the Bonds
other than providing the Bond Insurance Policy, and except for the premium, the Bond Insurer
will not use any portion of the Bond proceeds; (E) except for payments under the Bond Insurance
Policy in the case of nonpayment by the City, there is no obligation to pay any amount of
principal or interest on the Bonds by the Bond Insurer; (F)the City is not entitled to a refund in
excess of the unearned portion of the premium for the Bond Insurance Policy in the event a Bond
is retired before the final maturity date; and (G) the Bond Insurer would not have issued the
Bond Insurance Policy unless the Bond Ordinance provided for a Reserve Account funded at the
Reserve Requirement.
(i) Ownership and Use of Facilities Financed With Bond Proceeds. The City expects
in the future to own and operate,all facilities financed with the proceeds of the Bonds. No more
than 10% of the proceeds of the Bonds are to be used, directly or indirectly, for any"private
business use" (as defined in Section 141 of the Code); and no more than 5% of the proceeds of
the Bonds are to be used with respect to any private business use that is not related to the City's
use of such proceeds for governmental purposes, or which is disproportionate to such
governmental use. Further, the payment of the principal of and interest on no more than 10% of
the proceeds of the Bonds are to be, directly or indirectly, (1) secured by any interest in
(A)property to be used for private business use, or(B)payments in respect of such property; or
(2) derived from payments in respect of property, or borrowed money, used or to be used for a
private business use; and the payment of the principal and interest on no more than 5% of the
proceeds of the Bonds are to be so secured by or derived from payments made in respect of
private business use of the proceeds of the Bonds in a manner which is unrelated or
disproportionate to the City's use for governmental purposes. The"nonqualified amount," as
f:\Renton\water sewer 02 3
defined in Section 141(b)(8) of the Code, if any, with respect to the Bonds will not exceed
$15,000,000.
(j) No Private Loans. None of the proceeds of the Bonds will be used, directly or
indirectly, to make or finance loans to any person(including any governmental unit).
Section 3. Reasonable Expectations of the City as to Facts, Estimates and Circumstances.
The City makes the following representations and statements of fact, estimates and expectation
to establish that it is not expected that the proceeds of the Bonds will be used in a manner that
will cause the Bonds to be"arbitrage bonds"within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code:
(a) Application of Sale Proceeds.
(1) General. The amount of Sale Proceeds received by the City from the sale
of the Bonds is $12,024,346.40 (principal amount of$11,980,000.00, plus net original issue
premium of$44,346.40). In addition, the City will receive$16,778.97 of Pre-Issuance Accrued
Interest.
(2) Accrued Interest. Pre-Issuance Accrued Interest in the amount of
$16,778.97 will be deposited into the Principal and Interest Account on the Date of Issue to be
applied to the payment of interest on the Bonds on December 1, 2002, the first interest payment
date for the Bonds.
(3) Premium for Bond Insurance Policy. Sale Proceeds in the amount of
$54,223.53 will be used to pay the Bond Insurer on the Date of Issue for the premium for the
Bond Insurance Policy.
(4) Issuance Costs. Sale Proceeds in the amount of$119,800.00 will be used
to pay Underwriter's discount on the Date of Issue; such amount is equal to the difference
between the issue price of the Bonds and the amount paid for the Bonds by the Underwriter.
Another$36,822.00 of Sale Proceeds will be deposited into the Project Fund on the Date of Issue
to be applied to the payment of the other costs of issuing the Bonds.
(5) Project Costs. The remaining Sale Proceeds, in the amount of
$11,813,500.87, will be deposited into the Project Fund on the Date of Issue to be applied to the
payment of the costs of the Project.
(b) Reserve Account Transfer. The City will make no deposit of Sale Proceeds into
the Reserve Account,but shall transfer thereto on the Date of Issue the sum of$542,300.00 from
the balance in the reserve account created for the City's Water and Sewer Refunding and
Improvement Revenue Bonds, 1992, that were fully retired as of June 1, 2002.
(c) Investment Earnings. Except for the Reserve Account(until the New Covenant
Date) and the Reserve Fund(from and after the New Covenant Date), interest earned(including
discount and premium) on any moneys or investments in any Fund or Account will be retained in
such Fund or Account and used for the purposes thereof. Until the New Covenant Date,
f:\Renton\water sewer 02 4
investment earnings received on the investments in the Reserve Account shall be deposited in
and become a part of the Reserve Account until the total required reserve amount shall have been
accumulated therein, after which time the interest shall be deposited in the Principal and Interest
Account. From and after the New Covenant Date, investment earnings received on the
investments in the Reserve Fund shall be deposited in the Reserve Fund until the total Reserve
Requirement shall have been accumulated therein, after which time the interest shall be
deposited in any Parity Bond Fund.
(d) Funds and Accounts. The City has established the following funds and accounts
for the Bonds, each to be held separate and apart from all other funds and accounts of the City:
Prior to the New Covenant Date:
The Waterworks Revenue Parity Bond Fund
The 2002 Waterworks Revenue Bond Account(known as the"Bond
Fund"until the New Covenant Date)
The Principal and Interest Account
The Reserve Account
The Waterworks Utility Construction Fund(the"Project Fund")
The Rate Stabilization Fund
After the New Covenant bate:
The 2002 Waterworks Revenue Bond Fund(known as the"Bond Fund"from and
after the New Covenant Date)
The Waterworks Revenue Bond Reserve Fund(the"Reserve Fund")
The Project Fundi
The Rate Stabilization Fund
Pursuant to the Bond Ordinance, on the New Covenant Date, all of the money in the 2002
Waterworks Revenue Bond Account will be transferred to the 2002 Waterworks Revenue Bond
Fund, and all of the money in the Reserve Account will be transferred to the Reserve Fund.
Pursuant to the Bond Ordinance,there shall be no funds in the Rate Stabilization Fund
until the New Covenant Date, and the City has no current intention of funding the Rate
Stabilization Fund.
Other than the funds and accounts specifically described in this Certificate, no fund or
account which secures or otherwise relates to the Bonds has been established, nor are any such
funds or accounts expected to be established,pursuant to any instrument.
(e) Bona Fide Debt Service Fund. Until the New Covenant Date,the Principal and
Interest Account of the Bond Fund shall serve as the bona fide debt service fund for the Bonds.
From and after the New Covenant Date, the Bond Fund itself shall serve as the bona fide debt
service fund for the Bonds. All payments in respect of debt service on the Bonds will be
deposited into the Principal and Interest Account(until the New Covenant Date) or the Bond
f:\Renton\water sewer 02 5
Fund(from and after the New Covenant Date). The Principal and Interest Account is intended to
achieve a proper matching of Gross Revenue against the scheduled annual debt service on the
Bonds prior to the New Covenant Date, and the Bond Fund is intended to achieve a proper
matching of Gross Revenue against the scheduled annual debt service on the Bonds thereafter.
All amounts in the Principal and Interest Account (prior to the New Covenant Date) and
the Bond Fund(from and after the New Covenant Date)will be expended to pay debt service on
the Bonds within thirteen months of the date such amounts are first deposited therein. The
Principal and Interest Account(prior to the New Covenant Date) and the Bond Fund (from and
after the New Covenant Date)will each be depleted at least once each year except for any
carryover amounts which will not exceed the greater of(1)the earnings in the Principal and
Interest Account(prior to the New Covenant Date) or the Bond Fund(from and after the New
Covenant Date) for the immediately preceding Bond Year or(2) one-twelfth of principal and
interest payments on the Bonds for the immediately preceding Bond Year. The schedule of
payments of interest on and principal of the Bonds has been established on the basis of, and is
intended to achieve, a proper matching of revenues with debt service on the Bonds.
The City has not created or established, and does not expect to create or establish, any
fund in connection with the Bonds that is reasonably expected to be used to pay debt service on
the Bonds other than the Principal and Interest Account(prior to the New Covenant Date) and
the Bond Fund(from and after the New Covenant Date).
(f) Reasonably Required Reserve Fund. Until the New Covenant Date,the Reserve
Account of the Bond Fund shall serve as the reasonably required reserve fund for the Bonds.
From and after the New Covenant Date, the Reserve Fund shall serve as the reasonably required
reserve fund for the Bonds and any Future Parity Bonds.
As described in Section 3(b)hereof,the City will make no deposit of Sale Proceeds into
the Reserve Account,but shall transfer thereto on the Date of Issue the sum of$542,300.00 from
the balance in the reserve account created for the City's Water and Sewer Refunding and
Improvement Revenue Bonds, 1992 that were fully retired as of June 1, 2002. Pursuant to the
Bond Ordinance,the City has covenanted to set aside and pay into: (1)the Reserve Account
(prior to the New Covenant Date), out of Gross Revenue in substantially equal monthly
payments such amounts so that by no later than July 1, 2005, there shall have been accumulated
in the Reserve Account for the Bonds an amount not less than the Average Annual Debt Service
for the Bonds; and(2)the Reserve Fund(from and after the New Covenant Date), out of the Net
Revenue, in three annual approximately equal deposits, any additional money necessary to bring
the amount deposited in the Reserve Fund attributable to the Bonds up to the amount equal to the
increase in the Reserve Requirement attributable to the Bonds.
The Underwriter has certified in the Underwriter's Certificate that the City's covenants to
maintain the funds in the Reserve Account in an amount at least equal to the Average Annual
Debt Service for the Bonds (prior to the New Covenant Date) and to maintain the funds in the
Reserve Fund in an amount at least equal to the Reserve Requirement(from and after the New
Covenant Date) in an amount at least equal to the Reserve Requirement were necessary, in our
judgment, to enable us to market the Bonds successfully. Amounts in the Reserve Account will
f:\Renton\water sewer 02 6
be transferred to the Principal and Interest Account(prior to the New Covenant Date) and
amounts in the Reserve Fund will be transferred to the Bond Fund(from and after the New
Covenant Date), in each case, if needed to make up any deficiency therein. In the event of a
temporary interruption of revenues, the Reserve Account is intended to provide for the payment
of debt service on the Bonds (including the Bonds) and, as such, constitutes a reasonably
required reserve fund for the Bonds to the extent the amounts therein allocable to the Bonds do
not exceed the lesser of(1) 1.25 times the average annual debt service of the Bonds;
(2)maximum annual debt service;of the Bonds; or(3) 10% of the proceeds of the Bonds.
(g) Representations Establishing Eligibility for Temporary Period.
(1) Completion Date. It is reasonably expected that Sale Proceeds of the
Bonds deposited in the Project Fund will be used to pay the costs of the Project not later than
July 11, 2005.
(2) Binding Obligations. The City has spent or, within 6 months of the Date
of Issue of the Bonds,will spend'(or enter into binding obligations with third parties obligating
the City to spend) an amount equal to at least 5% of the Sale Proceeds of the Bonds with respect
to the Project.
(3) Due Diligence. Work on the Project and the allocation of the Sale
Proceeds of the Bonds to expenditures with respect thereto will proceed with due diligence.
(h) No Replacement) No portion of the amounts received from the sale of the Bonds
will be used as a substitute for any other funds that would otherwise be used as a source of
fmancing for any portion of the cost of the Project and that have been or will be used to acquire,
directly or indirectly, obligation producing a yield in excess of the yield on the Bonds.
(i) No Negative Pledges. There are no amounts held under any agreement to
maintain funds at a particular level for the direct or indirect benefit of the Owners of the Bonds,
excluding for this purpose (1) amounts in which the City may grant rights that are superior to the
rights of the bondholders and(2) amounts that do not exceed the reasonable needs for which they
are maintained and that may be spent without any substantial restriction other than a requirement
to replenish the amount by a testing date that may occur no more frequently than every six (6)
months.
(j) No Excess Proceeds. The Gross Proceeds of the Bonds will not exceed the costs
of accomplishing the Project. '
The Bonds will not remain outstanding longer than is otherwise reasonably necessary to
accomplish the governmental purposes of the Bonds,based on all facts and circumstances.
(k) Universal Cap. Notwithstanding any restrictions on the investment of proceeds of
the Bonds and other amounts set forth in Section 3(a) of this Certificate,proceeds of the Bonds
and other amounts treated as proceeds of the Bonds shall be allocated and remain allocated to the
Bonds, and thus be subject to the restrictions contained in this Certificate, only to the extent that
f:\Renton\water sewer 02 7
the value of such the Nonpurpose Investments allocated to proceeds does not exceed the value of
the outstanding Bonds (the "Universal Cap"). This section shall not apply to amounts on deposit
in the Bond Fund.
(1) Bond Yield. The yield on the Bonds (the "Bond Yield") generally means the
discount rate that,when used in computing the present value as of the Date of Issue of all
unconditionally payable payments of principal, interest and fees for qualified guarantees on the
Bonds,produces an amount equal to the present value,using the same discount rate, of the
aggregate issue price of the Bonds (defined as the initial offering price or yield to the public,
excluding bond houses,brokers or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of
underwriters or wholesalers, at which price or yield a substantial amount of the Bonds of each
maturity was sold) as of the Date of Issue.
The Bonds maturing on December 1 in the years 2018 through 2022, inclusive, have been
treated as redeemed at their respective stated redemption prices on the optional redemption dates
that would produce the lowest yield thereon,because such Bonds were issued at an issue price
that exceeds the stated redemption price at maturity by more than 0.25%multiplied by the
product of the stated redemption'price at maturity and the number of complete years to the first
optional redemption date for such Bonds, all in accordance with Treasury Regulations
Section 1.148-4(b)(3).
The aggregate present value on the Date of Issue of the issue prices of the Bonds, as so
defined, and based upon the information in the Underwriter's Certificate is $12,041,125.37,
which is equal to the principal amount of the Bonds of$11,980,000.00,plus net original issue
premium of$44,346.40,plus Pre-Issuance Accrued Interest of$16,778.97. Based upon the
information in the Bond Insurer's Certificate and the Underwriter's Certificate,the premium for
the Bond Insurance Policy in the sum of$54,223.53 is a payment by the City to the Bond Insurer
for a"qualified guarantee"(as such term is defined in Section 1.148-4(f) of the Treasury
Regulations). Based upon the information in the Underwriter's Certificate, the Bond Yield
computed in this manner is, as 9f the date hereof, 4.7536664%. The Bond Yield is computed as
of the Date of Issue and will not be affected by subsequent unexpected events unless (A)the City
either enters into a hedging transaction, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section
1.148-4(h)(3) or(B)unless there is a subsequent transfer, waiver,modification or similar
transaction affecting any right that is part of the terms of a Bond. Prior to entering into any
transaction described in the immediately preceding sentence, the City shall inform Bond Counsel
of its intent and shall not enter into such transaction without receiving a prior Opinion of Bond
Counsel that such transaction will not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income of
interest on the Bonds.
(m) Yield Restrictions. Any amounts on deposit in any fund or account established
for the Bonds will not be invested at a yield that exceeds the Bond Yield, except as follows:
(1) Principal and Interest Account and Bond Fund. Amounts deposited in the
Principal and Interest Account(prior to the New Covenant Date) or the Bond Fund(from and
after the New Covenant Date) may be invested at an unrestricted yield for a period of 13 months
from the date of deposit of such amounts therein. Earnings on such amounts that are retained
'
f:\Renton\water sewer 02 8
I i
therein may be invested at an unrestricted yield for a period of 13 months from the date of receipt
of the amount earned. Such amounts are not subject to the Rebate Requirement.
(2) Project Fund. Sale Proceeds of the Bonds on deposit in the Project Fund,
together with the investment earnings thereon,may be invested without regard to yield
restrictions for a three-year period commencing on the date hereof. Thereafter, such funds may
not be invested at a yield that exceeds the Bond Yield. Except as otherwise described in Section
4 hereof, such funds may be subject to the Rebate Requirement.
(3) Reserve Account and Reserve Fund. Amounts in the Reserve Account
(prior to the New Covenant Date) or the Reserve Fund(from and after the New Covenant Date)
allocable to the Bonds will be invested without regard to yield restriction to the extent that they
do not exceed the lesser of(1) 1.25 times the average annual debt service of the Bonds;
(2)maximum annual debt service of the Bonds; or(3) 10% of the proceeds of the Bonds. To the
extent that the amount in the Reserve Account allocable to the Bonds exceeds the lesser of(1)
1.25 times the average annual debt service of the Bonds; (2)maximum annual debt service of the

pursuant to Section 3(m)(3)hereof may be invested without regard to yield restriction for one
year from the date of receipt. Ail earnings on Gross Proceeds, other than earnings on amounts
described in Section 3(m)(1)hereof and earnings on Replacement Proceeds that do not
themselves constitute Replacement Proceeds, are subject to the Rebate Requirement.
(5) Yield Reduction Payments. Notwithstanding any of the provisions of
Sections 3(m)(1)through 3(m)(4)hereof that require the investment of sale proceeds of the

pursuant to the same plan of financing as the Bonds.
Section 4. Rebate Requirement Calculations and Payment. The City has been advised by
Bond Counsel that the following provisions and procedures also apply to the proceeds of the
Bonds.
(a) General. Certain Gross Proceeds of the Bonds will be exempt from the Rebate
Requirement described in Section 4(e) hereof if the Bonds satisfy the requirements of Section
4(b), Section 4(c) or Section 4(d)hereof.
(b) Six Month Exception. The Bonds shall be treated as meeting the Rebate
Requirement described in Section 4(e) hereof if the Gross Proceeds thereof are expended for the
governmental purposes of such issue within the 6 month period beginning on the Date of Issue;
provided, that the 6 month spending period will be extended for an additional 6 months if the
Gross Proceeds of the Bonds, as specially defined for purposes of this Section 4(b), are expended
within the first six-month spending period except for an amount not exceeding the lesser of 5%
of the issue price of the Bonds, or$100,000. For purposes of this Section 4(b), the governmental
purposes of the Bonds include (1)payments of interest on but not payments of principal of the
Bonds, and(2)payments of interest on or principal of other obligations of the City. For this
purpose, Gross Proceeds has the meaning set forth in Exhibit A to this Nonarbitrage Certificate,
except that it does not include (A) amounts held in a bona fide debt service fund, (B) amounts
held in a reasonably required reserve or replacement fund, (C)amounts that, as of the Date of
Issue, are not reasonably expected to be Gross Proceeds,but that become Gross Proceeds after
the end of the six-month period, (D) amounts representing sale or investment proceeds derived
from payments under any Purpose Investment of the Bonds, and (E) amounts representing
repayments of grants financed by the Bonds.Notwithstanding the above, Gross Proceeds of the
Bonds shall not be eligible for the exemption from the Rebate Requirement described in this
Section 4(b)unless the Rebate Requirement set forth in Section 4(e) is met for Gross Proceeds of
such issues not required to be spent within the six-month spending period. In the event that the
Bonds satisfy the requirements of this Section 4(b), the City may nevertheless subsequently elect
to disregard the availability of the exemption from rebate described in this Section 4(b) and to
satisfy the Rebate Requirement with respect to the Bonds.
(c) Eighteen Month Exception. The Rebate Requirement described in Section 4(e)
hereof shall not apply to the Gross Proceeds of the Bonds if the following percentages (the
"Qualifying Expenditures") of such Gross Proceeds are expended for the governmental purposes
of the Bonds by the last day of each of the periods identified below(the "Qualifying Dates").
For this purpose,the governmental purposes of the Bonds include (1)payments of interest on but
no payments of principal of the Bonds, (2)payments of interest on other obligations of the City,
(:\Renton\water sewer 02 10
which interest either(A)accrues on such other obligations during a one-year period including the
Date of Issue (B)is a capital expenditure as defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.150-1(b),
or(C) is a de minimis working capital expenditure, and(3)payments of issuance costs of the
Bonds made from earnings on Gross Proceeds. For this purpose, Gross Proceeds has the
meaning set forth in Exhibit A hereto, except that it does not include (A) amounts held in a bona
fide debt service fund, (B)amounts held in a reasonably required reserve or replacement fund,
(C)amounts that, as of the Date of Issue,are not reasonably expected to be Gross Proceeds,but
that become Gross Proceeds after the end of the eighteen-month period, (D) amounts
representing sale or investment proceeds derived from payments under any Purpose Investment
of the Bonds; and(E)amounts representing repayments of any grants financed by the Bonds.
Required Percentage Expenditure
of Gross Proceeds! Qualifying Date
15% January 11, 2003
60% ! July 11, 2003
100% January 11, 2004
The Qualifying Expenditures as of the last of the Qualifying Dates set forth above will be treated
as made if, as of the third such date, all such Gross Proceeds have been spent for the
governmental purposes of the Bonds, except for a reasonable retainage not exceeding 5% of the
Net Sale Proceeds as of such date, and 100% of the Gross Proceeds are actually spent for the
governmental purposes of the Bonds within the 30-month period beginning on the Date of Issue.
A failure to satisfy the final spending requirement will be disregarded if the City exercises due
diligence to complete the Project and the amount of the failure does not exceed the lesser of 3%
of the issue price of the Bonds o'r$250,000. For purposes of determining whether the above
{ Qualifying Expenditures have been made as of the first two Qualifying Dates, earnings
reasonably expected as of the Date of Issue to be generated for the entire 18 month spending
period shall be included; however, for purposes of determining whether the Qualifying
Expenditures have been made as of the third and any subsequent Qualifying Dates, only
investment earnings actually generated as of such date shall be included. In the event any of the
Qualifying Expenditures are not made as and when required, all Gross Proceeds of the Bonds
shall be subject to the Rebate Requirement.
(d) Two Year Exception. The City reasonably expects that at least 75% of the
Available Construction Proceeds of the Bonds will be expended for Construction Expenditures
with respect to property reasonably expected to be owned by a governmental unit.
The Rebate Requirement described in Section 4(e)hereof shall not apply to the Available
Construction Proceeds of the Bonds or the Gross Proceeds of the Bonds used to pay Issuance
Costs if(1) all of the Gross Proceeds of the Bonds to be used to pay Issuance Costs are expended
by the fourth Measuring Date (as defined below), and(2)the following percentages (the
"Required Expenditures") of such Available Construction Proceeds are expended for the
governmental purposes of the Bonds by the last day of each of the periods identified below(the
"Measuring Dates"). For this purpose, the governmental purposes of the Bonds include (A)
payments of interest on but no payments of principal of the Bonds, and(B)payments of interest

The Required Expenditures as of:the last of the Measuring Dates set forth above will be treated
as made if, as of the fourth such date, all such Available Construction Proceeds have been spent
for the governmental purposes of the Bonds, except for a reasonable retainage not exceeding 5%
of the Available Construction Proceeds as of such date, and 100% of the Available Construction
Proceeds are actually spent for the governmental purposes of the Bonds within the three-year
period beginning on the Date of Issue. A failure to satisfy the final spending requirement will be
disregarded if the City exercises due diligence to complete the Project and the amount of the
failure does not exceed the lesser of 3%of the issue price of the Bonds or$250,000. For
purposes of determining whether the above Required Expenditures have been made as of the first
three Measuring Dates,Available Construction Proceeds shall include earnings reasonably
expected as of the Date of Issue to be generated for the entire two-year spending period;
however, for purposes of determining whether the Required Expenditures have been made as of
the fourth and any subsequent Measuring Dates, only investment earnings actually generated as
of such date shall be included. In the event any of the Measuring Expenditures are not made as
and when required, all Gross Proceeds of the Bonds shall be subject to the Rebate Requirement.
(e) Rebate Requirement. The Rebate Requirement as of any Computation Date,
subject to such modifications as may be made by Treasury Regulations or rulings, is an amount
equal to the excess (if any) of the future value of all Nonpurpose Receipts over the future value
of all Nonpurpose Payments. All future values are computed as of the Computation Date using
an interest rate equal to the Bond Yield.
(f) Future Value. The future value of a Nonpurpose Receipt or Nonpurpose Payment
is calculated using the following formula:
FV=PV(1 +i)n
where
FV=The future value of the Nonpurpose Receipt or Nonpurpose Payment;
PV=The amount of the Nonpurpose Receipt or Nonpurpose Payment;
i = Bond Yield divided by the number of compounding intervals in a Bond
Year; and
n = The number of compounding intervals from the date of the Nonpurpose
Receipt or Nonpurpose'Payment through the Computation Date.
f:\Renton\water sewer 02 I 12
(g) Allocation and Accounting Rules. Generally, investments are allocated to the
Bonds for the period that (1)begins on the date Gross Proceeds are allocated to the Bonds and to
the investment, and(2) ends on the date such Gross Proceeds cease to be allocated to the Bonds
or to the investment.
(h) Relationship to Yield Restriction. Subject to Section 3(m)(1) and the next
paragraph hereof, the requirements of this Section 4 relating to the Rebate Requirement of the
Code apply to all Gross Proceeds;regardless of whether such amounts are subject to yield
restriction or are unrestricted as to yield. Thus, an amount of Gross Proceeds may be
"unrestricted as to yield"but will,notwithstanding that characterization,be subject to the Rebate
Requirement of the Code. Similarly, an amount of Gross Proceeds may be "restricted as to
yield"but will,notwithstanding that characterization, also be subject to the Rebate Requirement
of the Code.
Because the average annual debt service on the Bonds is less than $2,500,000, the
amounts in the Local Improvement Fund intended for the payment of debt service on the Notes
and the earnings thereon are excluded from the calculation of the Rebate Requirement. The City
shall comply with the recordkeeping requirements set forth in Section 4(k) of this Certificate
with respect to such earnings.
(i) Computation and Payment Dates. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4(b),
Section 4(c) or Section 4(d)hereof, the Rebate Requirement, net of the Computation Date Credit,
must be computed by the City as of each Installment Computation Date and as of the Final
Computation Date. Rebate Payments of an amount which,when added to the future value of all
previous rebate payments made with respect to the Bonds, equals at least 90% of the Rebate
Requirement,must be paid by the City no later than the date 60 days after each Installment
Computation Date. The final Rebate Payment of an amount which, when added to the future
value of all previous rebate payments made with respect to the Bonds, equals 100% of the
Rebate Requirement as of the Final Computation Date,must be paid by the City to the
Department of Treasury no later than 60 days after the Final Computation Date.
(j) Procedure for Remittance. Each payment to be made by the City pursuant to this
Section shall be filed with the Internal Revenue Service Center, 1160 West 1200 South, Ogden,
Utah 84201 (or at such other address as maybe designated by the Internal Revenue Service in
the future) on or before the date payment is due, and shall be accompanied by Internal Revenue
Service Form 8038-T, which shall be executed by the City.
(k) Recordkeeping Obligation.
(1) In General. The Code requires that the City keep and maintain accurate
and complete records of fund balances, any investments thereof and all transactions involving
any Fund or Account held under the Bond Ordinance.
(2) Retention of Records. The Code further requires that the City retain
records of the determination of the Rebate Amounts and of the Rebate Payments actually made
until seven years after the retirement of the last Outstanding Bond.
£:\Renton\water sewer 02 13
Section 5. Segregation of Proceeds. In order to perform the calculations required by the
Code, it is necessary to separately'account for all of the Gross Proceeds and each specific
investment acquired therewith. To that end, the City may take appropriate accounting measures
in order to account fully and with specificity for all Gross Proceeds and each investment
acquired therewith.
Section 6. Bond Ordinance Covenants Concerning Arbitrage and Tax Exemption.
Section 19 of the Bond O Idinance provides, in pertinent part, as follows:
The City covenants and agrees with the Owner of each Bond at any time
outstanding as follows:
(h) It will take all actions necessary to prevent interest on the Bonds from
being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes, and it will neither
take any action nor make jor permit any use of proceeds of the Bonds or other
funds of the City treated as proceeds of the Bonds at any time during the term of
the Bonds which will cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income
for federal income tax purposes. It will,to the extent arbitrage rebate
requirements of Section 148 of the Code are applicable to the Bonds, take all
action necessary to comply(or to be treated as having complied)with those
requirements in connection with the Bonds, including the calculation and payment
of any penalties that the City has elected to pay as an alternative to calculating
rebatable arbitrage, and the payment of any other penalties if required under
Section 148 of the Code to prevent interest on the Bonds from being included in
gross income for federalincome tax purposes.
The City certifies that it has not been notified of any listing or proposed listing by
the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that it is a bond issuer whose arbitrage
certifications may not be relied upon.
Section 20 of the Bond Ordinance further provides as follows:
The City covenants that it will take no actions and will make no use of the
proceeds of the Bonds or any other funds held under this ordinance which would
cause any Bond to be treated as a"private activity bond" (as defined in Section
141(b) of the Code) subject to treatment under said Section 141(b) as an
obligation not described in Section 103(a) of the Code,unless the tax exemption
thereof is not affected.
Section 7. Amendments. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the covenants and
obligations contained herein may be and shall be deemed modified to the extent the City secures
a written opinion of Bond Counsel that any action required hereunder is no longer required or
� I
f:\Renton\water sewer 02 14
that some further action is required in order to maintain the exclusion of interest on the Bonds
from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation.
Section 8. Supplementation of this Certificate. The City understands the need to
supplement this Certificate periodically to reflect further developments in the federal income tax
laws governing the exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on
the Bonds. The City will comply with any modifications or supplements made to this Certificate
in accordance with the written advice of Bond Counsel.
Section 9. Reliance by Bond Counsel. The City understands and acknowledges that the
opinion of Gottlieb,Fisher&Andrews, PLLC, as Bond Counsel,regarding the exclusion of
interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes is rendered in reliance
upon the representations and statements of fact, estimates and expectation contained in this
Certificate and assumes the continued compliance by the City with its covenants described
above, and with the provisions of this Certificate.

constructive personal property, excluding expenditures for acquisitions of interests in land or
other existing real property.
Date of Issue means July 12, 2002.
Department of the Treasury means the Department of the Treasury of the United
States.
Fair Market Value, with respect to a Nonpurpose Investment, means, except where

General. Except with respect to Investment Property that is an obligation of the
United States Treasury, the fair market value of an investment means the price at which a
willing buyer would purchase the investment from a willing seller in a bona fide, arm's
length transaction. The fair market value of an Investment consisting of an obligation of
the United States Treasury that is purchased directly from the United States Treasury
shall be its purchase price.
f:\Renton\water sewer 02 A-1
Certificates of Deposit. The market price of a certificate of deposit issued by a
commercial bank that has a fixed interest rate, a fixed principal payment schedule, a fixed
maturity, and a substantial penalty for early withdrawal means its purchase price if the
certificate of deposit has a yield not less than(A)the yield on reasonably comparable
direct obligations of the United States, and(B)the highest yield that is published or posed
by the provider to be currently available from the provider on comparable certificates of
deposit offered to the public.
Guaranteed Investment Contracts. Except as provided in the definitions of
Nonpurpose Payments and Nonpurpose Receipts, in the case of a guaranteed investment
contract, the obligations acquired thereunder shall be considered acquired or disposed of
for an amount equal to the fair market value of such obligations if all of the following
requirements are satisfied':
(A) The issuer makes a bona fide solicitation for the purchase of the
investment. A bona fide solicitation is a solicitation that satisfies all of the following
requirements:
(1) The bid specifications are in writing and are timely
forwarded to potential providers.
(2) The bid specifications include all material terms of the bid.
A term is material if it may directly or indirectly affect the yield or the cost of the
investment.
(3) The bid specifications include a statement notifying
potential providers that submission of a bid is a representation that the potential provider
did not consult with any,other potential provider about its bid,that the bid was
determined without regard to any other formal agreement that the potential provider has
with the issuer or any other person (whether or not in connection with the bond issue),
and that the bid is not being submitted solely as a courtesy to the issuer or any other
person for purposes of satisfying the requirements of paragraph(B)(1) or(B)(2) of this
definition.
(4) The terms of the bid specifications are commercially
reasonable. A term is commercially reasonable if there is a legitimate business purpose
for the term other than to increase the purchase price or reduce the yield of the
investment.
(5) The terms of the solicitation take into account the issuer's
reasonably expected deposit and drawdown schedule for the amounts to be invested.
(6) All potential providers have an equal opportunity to bid.
For example, no potential provider is given the opportunity to review other bids (i.e., at
last look)before providing a bid.
f\Renton\water sewer 02 A<-2
(7) At least three reasonably competitive providers are
solicited for bids. A reasonably competitive provider is a provider that has an established
industry reputation as a competitive provider of the type of investments being purchased.

requirements:
(1) , The issuer receives at least three bids from the providers
that the issuer solicited under a bona fide solicitation meeting the requirements of
paragraph(A) of this definition and that do not have a material fmancial interest in the
issue. A lead underwriter in a negotiated underwriting transaction is deemed to have a
material financial interestiin the issue until 15 days after the issue date of the issue. In
addition, any entity acting as a financial advisor with respect to the purchase of the
investment at the time the bid specifications are forwarded to potential providers has a
material financial interest in the issue. A provider that is a related party to a provider that
has a material financial interest in the issue is deemed to have a material financial interest
in the issue.
(2) At least one of the three bids described in paragraph (B)(1)
of this definition is from a reasonably competitive provider,with the meaning of the
paragraph(A)(7) of this definition.
(3) If the issuer uses an agent to conduct the bidding process,
the agent did not bid to provide the investment.
(C) The winning bid is the highest yielding bona fide bid(determined
net of any broker's fees):
(D) The obligor on the guaranteed investment contract certifies the
administrative costs that it pays(or expects to pay, if any)to third parties in connection
with supplying the investment.
(E) The issuer retains the following records with the bond documents
until three years after the last outstanding bond is redeemed:
(1) A copy of the contract.
(2) The receipt or other record of the amount actually paid by
the issuer for the investments, including records of any administrative costs paid by the
issuer, and the certification under paragraph(D) of this definition.

entity submitting the bid, the time and date of the bid, and the bid results.
(4) The bid solicitation form and, if the terms of the guaranteed
investment contract deviated from the bid solicitation form or a submitted bid is
(:\Renton\water sewer 02 A-3
__ I
modified, a brief statement explaining the deviation and stating the purpose for the
deviation. For example, if the issuer purchases a portfolio of investments for a yield
restricted defeasance escrow and, in order to satisfy the yield restriction requirements of
section 148, an investment in the winning bid is replaced with an investment with a lower
yield, the issuer must retain a record of the substitution and how the price of the
substitute investment was determined. If the issuer replaces an investment in the winning
bid portfolio with another investment,the purchase price of the new investment is not
covered by the safe harbor unless the investment is bid under a bidding procedure
meeting the requirements of this definition.

definition shall be made without regard to whether the amount is credited to any fund or account
established under the Bond Ordinance. For purposes of(e) above, an amount is pledged to pay
principal of or interest on the Bonds if there is reasonable assurance that the amount will be
available to be used for such purposes in the event that the City encounters financial difficulties.

obligations the interest on which is (i) excluded from gross income for federal income tax
purposes, and(ii)not treated as an item of tax preference under Section 57(a)(5) of the Code.
The term"Tax-Exempt Obligation" shall,however, include an interest in a regulated investment
company(within the meaning of Section 851(a) of the Code)to the extent that at least 95% of
the income to the holder is interest that is excluded from gross income by Section 103(a) of the
Code.

that investment on that date, (c)for a Nonpurpose Investment that was allocated to the Bonds at
the end of the preceding computation period,the Value of that investment at the beginning of the
computation period, (d)the Computation Date Credit, and(e) yield reduction payments as

Nonpurpose Investment, (including amounts treated as received from Nonpurpose Investments
held by a Commingled Fund), such as earnings and return of principal, (b) or a Nonpurpose
Investment that ceases to be allocated to an issue before its disposition or redemption date or that

Requirement but that subsequently qualifies as a bona fide debt service fund), the Value of that
Nonpurpose Investment on that date, and(c) for a Nonpurpose Investment that is held at the end
of a computation period, the Value of that investment at the end of that period. Treasury
Regulations Section 1.148-6(e)provides special rules for any fund containing both Gross
Proceeds of the Bonds in amounts in excess of$25,000 that are not Gross Proceeds of the Bonds
if the amounts in such fund are invested and accounted for collectively, without regard to the

The Bonds are subject to redemption prior to maturity at the times and in the manner
described in the Bond Ordinance.
In rendering this opinion letter,we have examined the following: (i)the Bond
Ordinance; (ii) one executed and authenticated Bond (we assume that all other Bonds are in the
same form and have been similarly executed and authenticated); and(iii)the certified
proceedings of the City and(Allier certificates of public officials and representatives of the City
which have been furnished to uand which comprise the transcript of proceedings pertaining to
the issuance of the Bonds (the`Transcript").
As to questions of fact aterial to the opinions expressed herein,we have relied upon the
certified proceedings of the Ci and other certificates of public officials and representatives of
the City which have been furnished to us as part of the Transcript, all without undertaking to
verify the same by independen investigation.
Based only upon the fo egoing and our examination of such questions of law as we have
deemed necessary or appropriate for the purpose of this opinion letter, and subject to the
limitations and qualifications expressed below,we are of the opinion that, as of this date:
City of Renton, Washington
July 12, 2002
Page 3
1. The Bonds are law lly authorized and issued pursuant to and in full compliance
with the Constitution and statutes of the State of Washington, the Bond Ordinance and
Ordinance No. 4709 of the City.
2. The Gross Revenu (as defined in the Bond Ordinance)hereafter collected has
been pledged to the payments to e made into the "2002 Waterworks Revenue Bond Account"
(the"Bond Fund") as set forth in he Bond Ordinance, and the Bonds constitute a lien and charge
on that revenue prior and superior to any other charges whatsoever, excluding Maintenance and
Operation Expense (defined in thb Bond Ordinance), except that the lien and charge on such
Gross Revenue for the Bonds sh hl be on a parity with the lien and charge thereon for the
Outstanding Parity Bonds (defin d in the Bond Ordinance),the City's Water and Sewer Revenue
Refunding Bonds, 1998, and any Future Parity Bonds (defined in the Bond Ordinance).
3. The Bonds are le al, valid and binding special fund revenue obligations of the
City,payable solely out of the B nd Fund, enforceable against the City in accordance with their
terms, subject to the limitations s to enforceability of laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and ther similar laws affecting creditors' rights, and also to the
exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with general principles of equity. The Bonds are not
general obligations of the City.
4. The Bonds are n?t"private activity bonds," as defined in the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended(the `Code").
5. Assuming comp iance by the City with applicable requirements of the Code that
must be met subsequent to the i suance of the Bonds, the interest on the Bonds is excluded from
the gross income for federal income tax purposes under existing federal law, and such interest is
not an item of tax preference for purposes of determining alternative minimum taxable income
for individuals and corporations under existing federal law. However, under existing federal
law, interest on the Bonds received by certain corporations is taken into account in the
computation of adjusted current earnings for purposes of calculating the alternative minimum tax
applicable to such corporations1; such interest received by foreign corporations with United States
branches may be subject to a f reign branch profits tax; and such interest received by certain S
corporations may be subject to tax.
6. The difference between the principal amount of the Bonds maturing in the years
2008 through 2012, and 2014 through 2017, each inclusive(the"Discount Bonds"), and the
initial offering price to the public (excluding bond houses,brokers and similar persons or
organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters or wholesalers) at which price a substantial
amount of such Discount Bonds of the same maturity was sold constitutes original issue
discount, which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes to the same
extent as interest on the Discount Bonds. Further, this original issue discount accrues over'the
term of each Discount Bond oil the basis of a constant yield to maturity and the basis of each
Discount Bond acquired at such initial offering price by an initial purchaser of such Discount
Bonds will be increased by the amount of such accrued original issue discount.

Except as stated in the prec ding paragraphs 4, 5 and 6,we express no opinion as to any
federal or state tax consequences of the ownership or disposition of the Bonds.
The Code contains certain requirements which must be satisfied subsequent to the date of
q q
issue of the Bonds in order to maintain the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income
for federal income tax purposes, including requirements relating to application of the proceeds of
the Bonds,use of facilities finance with such proceeds, limitations on income derived from the
investment of gross proceeds of th Bonds (as defined in Section 148 of the Code), and rebate to
the United States Treasury of cert 'n investment earnings on such gross proceeds. The City has
covenanted to comply with these r quirements, and the opinions expressed in paragraphs 4, 5
and 6 assume such compliance. H wever,we have not undertaken and do not undertake to
monitor compliance by the City w th such requirements; and failure of the City to comply with
such requirements could cause intrest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal
income tax purposes and to be trefted as an item of tax preference for purposes of the alternative
minimum tax on individuals and c rporations, in each case, retroactive to the date of issue of the
Bonds.
We have not been engage to participate in the preparation or review of, or express any
opinion concerning the completeness or accuracy of, the official statement or other disclosure
documentation used in connection with the offer or sale of the Bonds, and thus express no
opinion concerning the complete less or accuracy thereof.
Copies of this opinion lett r may be delivered to the Owners of the Bonds, who may rely
on this opinion letter as if it were addressed to them on the date hereof. Subject to the foregoing,
this opinion letter may be relied Li on by you only in connection with the issuance of the Bonds
and may not be used or relied updn by you or any other person for any other purpose whatsoever,
. without in each instance our prioi written consent. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to
� advise you or any Owners of any developments in areas covered by this opinin letter that occur
after the date hereof.

This Bond is not a general obligation of the City, but is a special fund revenue obligation
of the City. The principal hereof and the interest hereon are payable solely out of the "2002
Waterworks Revenue Bond Account" (the "Bond Fund"), a special account in the Waterworks
Revenue Parity Bond Fund created pursuant to the Bond Ordinance. Pursuant to the Bond

the Gross Revenue fixed amounts without regard to any fixed proportion, sufficient to pay the
principal and/or interest payments;on the Bonds and to maintain an amount of money and assets
in the Reserve Account at the level required by the Bond Ordinance, all within the times
provided by the Bond Ordinance. /The City has pledged the Gross Revenue to the payments to be
made into the Bond Fund as set forth in the Bond Ordinance, and the Bonds shall constitute a
lien and charge upon such Gross Revenue prior and superior to any other charges whatsoever,
excluding Maintenance and Operation Expense, except that the lien and charge on such revenue
for the Bonds shall be on a parity with the lien and charge thereon for the Outstanding Parity
Bonds, the 1998 Bonds and any Future Parity Bonds (all as defined in the Bond Ordinance). The
Owner of this Bond shall not have any claim for payment of the principal hereof or the interest
hereon against the City except for payment from the Bond Fund and the amount of Gross
Revenue pledged thereto, nor shall the Owner of this Bond have any claim against the State
arising from this Bond.
This Bond is one of a duly authorized series of bonds of the City designated as the CITY
OF RENTON, WASHINGTON,.WATER AND SEWER REVENUE BONDS, 2002 (the
"Bonds"). The Bonds are issued in the aggregate principal amount of$11,980,000 pursuant to

necessary to carry out certain additions to and betterments and extensions of the Waterworks
Utility, and to pay the costs related to the sale and issuance of the Bonds, all as specified in the
Bond Ordinance.
The Bonds maturing in the years 2003 through 2012, inclusive, are not subject to
redemption prior to their stated maturity dates. Bonds maturing on or after December 1, 2014,
are subject to redemption at the:option of the City prior to their stated maturity dates, from funds
from any source, at any time, in:whole or in part on or after December 1, 2012, within one or
more maturities selected by the'City (and by lot within a maturity in the manner determined by
the Bond Registrar or the Custodian) at a price of par plus accrued interest to the date of
redemption.
Any Bond in the principal amount of greater than$5,000 may be partially redeemed in
any integral multiple of$5,000. Prior to the Book-Entry Termination Date, the Bonds shall be
partially redeemed in accordance with the Letter of Representations. From and after the Book-
Entry Termination Date, in the event of a partial redemption of a Bond, upon surrender of such
Bond at the principal corporate trust office of the Bond Registrar, a new Bond or Bonds (at the
option of the Owner) of the same maturity and interest rate and in the aggregate principal amount
remaining unredeemed shall be authenticated and delivered to the Owner, without charge to the
Owner therefor, in any denomination authorized by the Bond Ordinance and selected by the
Owner.

Notice of any such redemption shall be given by or on behalf of the City not less than 30
nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption by first-class mail, postage prepaid,
to the Owner of any Bond to be redeemed at the address appearing on the Bond Register on the
day notice is mailed. Such notice requirement shall be deemed to be complied with when notice
is mailed as provided in the Bond Ordinance, whether or not it is actually received by the Owner
of any Bond.
If such notice to the Owners shall have been given and the City shall have set aside, on
the date fixed for redemption, sufficient money for the payment of all Bonds called for
redemption, the Bonds so called shall cease to accrue interest after such redemption date, and all
such Bond's shall be deemed not to be outstanding under the Bond Ordinance for any purposes,
except that the Owners thereof shall be entitled to receive payment of the redemption price and
accrued interest to the redemption date from the money set aside for such purpose.
This Bond may be transferred by the Owner hereof or by such Owner's authorized agent
but only in the manner and subject to the limitations set forth in the Bond Ordinance. Prior to the
Book-Entry Termination Date, the beneficial ownership of the Bonds may only be transferred on
the records established and maintained by the Custodian. On and after the Book-Entry
Termination Date, transfer of this Bond shall be valid only if it is surrendered at the principal
corporate trust office of the Bond Registrar, with the assignment form appearing on such Bond •
duly executed by, or accompanie,'d by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to such
Bond Registrar duly executed by, the Owner or such Owner's duly authorized agent, in a manner
satisfactory to such Bond Registrar. Upon such surrender, the Bond Registrar shall cancel the
surrendered Bond and shall authenticate and deliver, without charge to the Owner or transferee
therefor(other than any governmental fees or taxes payable on account of such transfer), a new
Bond or Bonds (at the option of lithe new Owner), naming as Owner the person or persons listed
as the assignee on the assignment form appearing on the surrendered Bond, of the same maturity
and interest rate, for the same aggregate principal amount, and in any authorized denomination
selected by the new Owners, in exchange for such surrendered and cancelled Bond.
The Bonds are subject to defeasance, in whole or in part, in the manner provided in the
Bond Ordinance. If the Bonds are defeased, then all right and interest of the Owners of the
defeased Bonds in the covenants of the Ordinance, in Gross Revenue and in funds and accounts
obligated to the payment of the Bonds, other than the right to receive the funds so set aside and
pledged to the defeasance of the defeased Bonds (the "Trust Account"), shall cease and become
void. If this Bond is defeased the Owner hereof shall have the right to receive payment of the
principal of and interest hereon from the Trust Account and, if the funds in the Trust Account are
not available for such payment, shall have the residual right to receive payment of the principal
of and interest on the defeased Bonds from Gross Revenue without any priority of lien or charge
against such revenue or covenants with respect thereto except to be paid therefrom.
The City and the Bond Registrar may deem and treat the Owner hereof as the absolute
owner hereof for all purposes and neither the City nor the Bond Registrar shall be affected by
any notice to the contrary.

official bank depository of the City or in any national bank or may be invested in any legal
investment for City funds. Interest on any of those investments or on that bank account shall be

Section 18. Findings Regarding Sufficiency of Revenue. In the judgment of the City
Council, Gross Revenue and benefits to be derived from the operation and maintenance of the
Waterworks Utility, at the rates to be charged for water, sanitary sewage disposal service and
storm and surface water drainage service in the entire utility, will be more than sufficient to meet
all Maintenance and Operation Expense (and cost of maintenance and operation of the
Waterworks Utility as that term is used in RCW 35.92.100) and the debt service requirements of
the Outstanding Parity Bonds and the 1998 Bonds and to permit the setting aside in the Bond
- i
Fund, and after the New Covenant Date,the Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund, out of the
revenue of the entire utility, of amounts sufficient to pay the interest on the Bonds as that interest
becomes payable and to pay and redeem all of the Bonds at maturity. The City Council further
declares that in creating the Bond Fund and in fixing the amounts to be paid into the Bond Fund,
and after the New Covenant Date,the Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund, as aforesaid, it has
exercised due regard for the Maintenance and Operation Expense (and costs of maintenance and
operation as used in RCW 35.92.100) and the debt service requirements of the currently
outstanding Outstanding Parity Bonds and 1998 Bonds, and the City has not bound and obligated
itself to set aside and pay into the Bond Fund, and after the New Covenant Date, the Bond Fund
and the Reserve Fund, a greater amount or proportion of the revenue of that utility than in the
28
ORDINANCE NO. 4 97 6
judgment of the City Council will be available over and above Maintenance and Operation
Expense (and such costs of maintenance and operation of the Waterworks Utility as that term is
used in RCW 35.92.100) and debt service requirements of the Outstanding Parity Bonds and the
1998 Bonds and that no portion of the Gross Revenue has been previously pledged for any
unrefunded indebtedness other than the payment of the currently outstanding Outstanding Parity
Bonds and 1998 Bonds.
Section 19. Covenants. The City covenants and agrees with the Owner of each Bond at
any time outstanding as follows:
(a) It will establish,maintain and collect such rates and charges for water,
sanitary sewage disposal service and storm and surface water drainage service so long as

to at least 1.3 times the average annual debt service requirements, both principal and
interest, on the Outstanding Parity Bonds, the 1998 Bonds and the Bonds after deducting
Maintenance and Operation Expense from Gross Revenue.
After the New Covenant Date, subsection(a) of this Section shall be amended to
read as follows: It will establish,maintain and collect rates and charges for all services

entire Waterworks Utility immediately prior to such sale or disposition.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this subsection, (1)the City in its
discretion may sell or otherwise dispose of any of the works,plant, properties or facilities
of the Waterworks Utility or any real or personal property comprising a part of the same

operation of the Waterworks Utility, or no longer necessary, material to or useful to the
operation of the Waterworks Utility, without making any deposit into the Bond Fund, and
(2) the City may transfer the Waterworks Utility to another municipal corporation so long

necessary action to enforce payment of such accounts against those property owners
whose accounts are delinquent.
(f) It will carry the types of insurance on the Waterworks Utility properties in
the amounts normally carried by private water and sewer companies engaged in the
operation of water and sewerage systems, and the cost of such insurance shall be
considered a part of operating and maintaining such utility. If, as, and when the United
States of America or some agency thereof shall provide for war risk insurance,the City
further agrees to take out and maintain such insurance on all or such portions of such
utility on which such war risk insurance may be written in an amount or amounts to cover
adequately the value threof.
After the New Covenant Date, subsection (f) of this Section shall beamended to
read as follows: It at all times will carry fire and extended coverage and such other forms
of insurance, including'public liability and property damage insurance, with responsible

being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes, and it will neither take
any action nor make or permit any use of proceeds of the Bonds or other funds of the City

cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax
purposes. It will,to the extent arbitrage rebate requirements of Section 148 of the Code
are applicable to the Bonds,take all action necessary to comply (or to be treated as
having complied) with those requirements in connection with the Bonds, including the

•
ORDINANCE NO. 4 9 7 6

under Section 148 of the Code to prevent interest on the Bonds from being included in
gross income for federal income tax purposes.
The City certifies that it has not been notified of any listing or proposed listing by the
Internal Revenue Service to the effect that it is a bond issuer whose arbitrage certifications may
not be relied upon.
Section 20. No Private Activity Bonds. The City covenants that it will take no actions
and will make no use of the proceeds of the Bonds or any other funds held under this ordinance
which would cause any Bond to be treated as a"private activity bond" (as defined in Section
141(b) of the Code) subject to treatment under said Section 141(b) as an obligation not described
in Section 103(a) of the Code, unless the tax exemption thereof is not affected.

State law or use money available from any other lawful source to pay when due the principal of

to redeem and retire,refund or defease all such then-outstanding Bonds (hereinafter collectively
called the "defeased Bonds") and to pay the costs of the refunding or defeasance. If money
and/or direct obligations of the United States of America maturing at a time or times and bearing
interest in amounts (together with money, if necessary) sufficient to redeem and retire,refund or
decrease the defeased Bonds in accordance with their terms are set aside in a special trust fund or
escrow account irrevocably pledged to that redemption, retirement or defeasance of defeased
Bonds (hereinafter called the"trust account"),then all right and interest of the Owners of the
defeased Bonds in the covenants of this ordinance, in Gross Revenue and in funds and accounts
obligated to the payment of the defeased Bonds, other than the right to receive the funds so set
33

ORDINANCE NO. 4976
aside and pledged, shall cease and become void. The owners of defeased Bonds shall have the
right to receive payment of the principal of and interest on the defeased Bonds from the trust
account and, if the funds in the trust account are not available for such payment, shall have the
residual right to receive payment of the principal of and interest on the defeased Bonds from
Gross Revenue without any priority of lien or charge against such revenue or covenants with
respect thereto except to be paid therefrom.
After the establishing and full funding of the trust account,the City may then apply any
money in any other fund or account established for the payment or redemption of the defeased
Bonds to any lawful purposes as it shall determine, subject only to the rights of the owners of
any other bonds then outstanding.
If the refunding plan provides that the defeased Bonds or the refunding bonds to be
issued be secured by cash and/or direct obligations of the United States of America or other legal
investments pending the prior redemption of the defeased Bonds and if such refunding plan also
provides that certain cash and/or direct obligations of the Untied States of America or other legal
investments are pledged irrevocably for the prior redemption of the defeased Bonds included in
that refunding plan,then only the debt service on the Bonds which are not defeased Bonds and
the refunding bonds,the payment of which is not so secured by the refunding plan, shall be
included in the computation of coverage for determining compliance with the rate covenants.
Section 22. Provision for Future Parity Bonds. The City reserves the right to issue

from Future Parity Bond proceeds,the City shall provide for deposit into the Reserve
Fund other legally available money from Net Revenue or Reserve Insurance or Alternate
Security within three years from the date of issuance of the Future Parity Bonds in three
approximately equal annual payments.

provide for the payment of mandatory redemption or sinking fund requirements into the
applicable Parity Bond Fund for any Term Bonds to be issued and for regular payments
to be made for the payment of the principal of such Term Bonds on or before their

MEMORANDUM
Date: June 24, 2002
To: Mayor Tanner '
Jay Covington
CC: Council Members
From: Victoria Runkle
Subject Ratings on our bonds
Attached are the credit reports from Standard and Poor's and Fitch rating agencies. Bottom line:
Fitch gave us an actual upgrade Ion our Water/Sewer bonds from an A+ to a AA-. While I
appreciate an A+ may seem better; receiving a double AA is excellent. Also, Fitch changed their
outlook from"stable"to"positive." his is a significant change in the area of credit ratings.
Also, while S&P did not upgrade us, they also did not downgrade us. They are well aware of the
Boeing issues. In our conversations, they are quite excited about the fact we are working
proactively with Boeing on the future of that property. Cities that have a wide base of economic
health are always considered better risks.
Both rating agencies remarked on the excellent work you have done in several areas. While the
report highlights many things, the following are important:
a) Diversifying our economic base;
b) Sustaining lower utility rates — we are now in the middle of the regional rates — as
opposed to being the highest;
c) Increasing all other economic indicators such as assessed valuation; and
d) Maintaining healthy reserves.
All of these types of things state that we are working on expanding our base.
These ratings are extremely good in relation to the current economic situation of our region.
Receiving an upgrade was beyond our goals. During my presentations with the agencies, I
wanted to point out that we were planning for contingencies. They were quite impressed with the
fact that you have set monies aside for "rainy days" as well as the 8 percent in the InguIance
Fund and the operating monies. Further, they were interested in the fact we had $1.5 million set
aside for Highlands redevelopment. They were told of the 2001 year end balances, and your
choice to build a swimming pool. They noted that purchasing "amenities" with cash while
preserving the debt capacity for basic services illustrated fiscal prudence.
In summary, you should be quite pleased with these rating reports. It demonstrates to the world
that Renton is indeed focusing on the important elements of its financial health.
Please feel free to call with any questions you have regarding these reports.

Fitch Upgrades Renton, WA, Water & Sewer Rev Bonds To 'AA-'
20 Jun 2002 4:28 PM 1
Fitch Ratings-San Francisco-June 20, 20d2: Fitch Ratings assigns'AA-' rating to the City of Renton,Washington's
$12,150,000 water and sewer revenue bonds. The bonds are scheduled to sell on June 27, 2002 through negotiation by
D.A. Davidson &Co.Additionally, the city's approximately$28.5 million in outstanding Water and Sewer Revenue
Bonds are upgraded to'AA-'from 'A+'.
1
In addition to its sound financial performance, system strengths include a strong indigenous water supply and capital
management program. The rating upgrade reflects the waterworks utility's strong financial performance and
conservative fiscal policy of funding a significant 50% of the capital program with cash. The utility's water supply and
wastewater capacity will serve system needs over the near and medium terms. The capital program is manageable and
near-term requirements will be primarily cash financed. The Boeing Corp., the largest employer in Renton, represents
about 11.3%of total utility revenue. While susceptible to Boeing's downsizing during economic downturns, utility
revenue from this source has not varied significantly. Nevertheless, the local economy's relative dependence on Boeing
is a credit issue.
Renton is located in King County in close proximity to downtown Seattle, SeaTac Airport, and the Port of Seattle and is
bisected by several major traffic corridors. It covers an area of 16.9 square miles,with an estimated population of
51,140. In the past decade, the city has seen sound economic, housing, employment and assessed valuation growth.
Boeing and PACCAR have been solid economic engines in Renton. Boeing accounts for 41%of the city's employment
and represents 13.1%of the total assessed valuations.
The Waterworks Utility is divided into threedivisions, the Water Utility, the Wastewater Utility, and the Storm Drainage
Utility. The three divisions have been combined for financing purposes:The Wastewater Utility provides water service to
14,538 customers and wastewater service to 12,572 customers.The storm drainage utility owns, maintains, and
operates all storm and surface water management facilities located within public rights of way and easements dedicated
for storm and surface water management purposes.
Residential customers pay an average monthly bill of$69.18,which is competitive with neighboring jurisdictions. The
utility has not raised rates over the past six years and does not have solid plans to do so in the near term. Financial
flexibility is good with ample revenues sufficient to support its capital program and related debt.
Debt service coverage has been strong in recent years,well exceeding 2.7 times (x). Projected debt service coverage is
also strong, even when including$10 million of additional debt. Through the forecasted period of2602-2006, debt
service coverage should be in excess of 2.6x. The Waterworks system's balance sheet is strong,with debt-to-net plant
of about 20%.While leverage may increase as the capital plan is financed, it should remain well at satisfactory levels for
the rating category.

Fitch Rates City of Renton, Washington $4.0MM GOs 'A+'
20 Jun 2002 10:35 AM
Fitch Ratings-San Francisco-June 20, 2002: City of Renton, Washington's$4,000,000 limited tax general obligation,
series 2002, are rated 'A+' by Fitch Ratings. The city's Rating Outlook is changed to Positive from Stable. The bonds are
scheduled to sell on July 11 through negotiation by D.A. Davidson&Co.
The rating reflects Renton's(the city)strong financial position, low debt burden, and good economy. Recent assessed
valuation (AV)trends and rising building permit activity also contribute to the overall credit strength. These factors are
somewhat offset by the Boeing Co.'ssignificant presence in the local area economy. The city's financial position is
strong, demonstrated by high reserve levels, sound fiscal management practices and operating surpluses. Debt levels
are low as a result of pay-as-you-go financing and limited debt issuance.
Renton is located in King County in close proximity to downtown Seattle, Sea-Tac Airport, and the Port of Seattle and is
bisected by several major traffic corridors.11t covers an area of 16.9 square miles,with a,population of 51,140. In the last
decade, the city has seen sound economic, housing, employment, and assessed valuation growth. In addition, the city
has seen significant growth to their retail base with the addition of several major new retailers. Nonetheless,the area
remains dominated by Boeing, although the city is less dependent upon Boeing for its overall economic health than in
the recent past. Boeing is Renton's largest employer and largest taxpayer at 13.1% of fiscal 2002 assessed valuation.
Taxable valuation gains have been good, the result of significant new building, as well as rising property values.
Assessed value rose a remarkable 9.1% per year on average from 1997-2002. Building permit activity remains strong,
suggesting good gains at least for the next year. City wealth indicators are above state and national averages. Renton
and King County enjoy below-average unemployment rates. -
The city's financial position is strong with above average reserve levels that provide financial flexibility. In fiscal 2001,
general fund ended with a high unreserved fund balance of 14.7%of spending, or$6.4 million, and has averaged a
strong 15.5% over the past four fiscal years.Approximately 74.7% of fiscal 2001 general fund revenue came from taxes,
10.0%from charges for services, and 5.0%from licenses and permits.Taxes are diverse and include property, sales,
utility, gambling, and real estate excise tax; each demonstrating good annual growth. Projections for fiscal year-end
2002 are an ending fund balance similar to,the current year's level.
Direct debt levels are low. Direct debt, including this issue is a low$651 per capita and 0.6%of assessed valuation.
Overall debt, including King County and Renton School District, is moderate at$2,926 per capita, or 2.7%of assessed
valuation.

03/01/1998 due 06/01/1998-2013 AAA/A+(SPUR)
OUTLOOK: STABLE
Rationale
The'A+' rating on Renton,Wash.'s water and sewer revenue bonds reflects:
• Plentiful water supply sufficient to accommodate growth;
• Good system liquidity provided by cash reserves in three of the past four years;
• Historic net revenues that cover maximum annual debt service more than 2 times(x); and
• A manageable capital plan that will require additional debt.
The bonds are secured by a pledge of gross revenues of the waterworks utility, including water, sewer,
and storm water utility revenues but excluding operations and maintenance.
Plentiful water supply accessed primarily by wells to the natural aquifer will accommodate growth well
into the future. Maximum capacity of 30 million gallons per day (mgd) is more than 4x the average daily
demand of 7 mgd, and well over twice the;maximum demand of 12 mgd. Some customer concentration
exists as the leading customer is the Boeing Corp.,which represents about 11%of the system's total
revenue. Most of the customers are residential, however, providing long-term stability to the utility as
the city's population is a growing 51,400.
The utility's liquidity measured by cash on,hand dipped in fiscal 2001 as a result of pay-as-you-go
spending for the capital plan, to the equivalent of 46 days of operations. The cash position has
rebounded in fiscal 2002, to over$5 million or 128 days of operating expenses,which is more
consistent with historic levels.
The.combined utility bill for a single-family residence is about$75 per month, including sewer rates at
$31.39 per month, along with a monthly storm drainage rate of$5.39. Rates have not increased in
seven years.
The bonds will fund a portion of the utility's capital plan,with up to$21.4 million of capital needs during
2003 and 2004.Additional debt is expected to be issued in 2004 to fund remaining capital needs.
Combined with existing parity bonds, $16.3 million of which remain outstanding, total debt service
requirements will start with maximum annual debt service (MADS) occurring in 2003 at just under$3
million. Even if net revenues were frozen at fiscal 2001 levels, they would be sufficient to cover MADS
more than 2x. Historic debt service coverage has also been strong, at over 2x in three of the past four
years.
Outlook
The stable outlook reflects the anticipation that the utility will maintain healthy cash liquidity as it

•Rationale
•Outlook OUTLOOK: STABLE
•Current Ratings
M Rationale
The'A+' rating on Renton, Wash.'s GO bonds reflects the following strengths:
• Excellent access to King County employment centers;
• A diversifying tax base and above-average wealth and income indicators;
• Strong financial performance indicated by high fund balances; and
• Affordable debt levels.
These strengths are offset by concentration and vulnerability in both assessed value(A\
and employment.
The GO bonds are secured by the city's unlimited pledge of ad valorem taxes.
Located in southeastern King County, Renton surrounds the southern end of Lake
Washington, southeast of Seattle on Interstate 405. As of 2001 population estimates, the
population was 51,140.AV is about$5.5 billion after a five-year period, when growth
averaged 9.9%, driven largely by new construction. The median home price was$209,01
The economy remains concentrated, with the leading taxpayer,the Boeing Company,
representing 13%of the city's AV; this is a vulnerability as the company continues
downsizing its Renton operations. The Boeing plant is also the leading employer, providi
more than 19,000 jobs, a decrease from 20,000 in 1998. Declines are likely to continue,
with the company announcing in 2001 employment reductions of as many as 30,000
positions companywide. Approximately one-third of Boeing's workforce is in Renton. The
leading 10 taxpayers represent just over 20%of the tax base.Wealth levels are high, at
141%of the US level.
Financial management has been strong, demonstrated by high ending fund balances. Tt
fiscal 2001 unreserved fund balance totaled $6.4 million, or 16.8%of expenditures, a
decline from fiscal 2000's 21%, but still strong. The city started the year with a general fu
balance of$12.8 million.The largest portion of Renton's general fund revenues comes fr
taxes, adding up to$48 million in fiscal 2001, while total revenues from all sources
combined were$62 million. Combined expenditures totaled$55.8 million, and a transfer
of$7 million was made for capital projects. The fiscal 2001 ending balance was$11.6

The city has a five-year capital plan, consisting of routing maintenance and infrastructure
upgrades totaling $40 million, which will be partly debt financed.
Overall debt is moderate at a little under$3,000 per capita, and 2.7% of the market value t
property in the city. The city previously issued$20 million of GO bonds in late 2001. These
bonds will mature fairly rapidly,with 40% paid down in 10 years.

Outlook
The stable outlook reflects the expectation that the city will maintain good fund balances
and that the city, with its excellent access to employment centers throughout King County,
will maintain a healthy economy.

Subject Revenue Bonds (Utility Construction and Refinancing Outstanding
Bonds
Background
Utility construction projects are funded from rate proceeds set aside for that purpose.
Depending on the size and scope of the construction projects included in our work
plan, bonding is necessary to smooth the impact on utility rates. Each year, as part of
the budget process, Council approves our annual construction work plan. Before
Council are two elements of a revenue bond proposal, totaling $12,150,000. The bond
is for $10,000,000 of new money for Water/Sewer construction projects, with the
remaining amount for the purpose of refunding outstanding bonds.
Revenue Bonds (Utility Construction and Refinancing Outstanding Bonds)
This revenue bond issue will fund construction projects in our water, sewer and storm
water utilities. The total issue will total $12,150,000 million. We currently pay
approximately $2.7 million a year in debt service. These bonds are structured to
maintain a level debt service in the next few years. However, as you can see in the
table below, the current debt service, without this new issue, is retired in 2013. Because
we have not issued debt for some time, we have a very good debt picture. This allows
us to structure the new bond payments in a way that maintains a more even payment
schedule after 2012, and this also permits us to issue debt in the future without forcing
significant rate increases due to maintenance needs.

The average annual interest rate on these bonds is expected to be 4.9 percent. At this
point, we will be saving more than $120,000 over the next four years by refunding the
outstanding debt.
We have had discussions with Fitch and Standard and Poor's rating agencies. They
have not indicated any significant issues. We do expect to have their rating decisions
by June 19. We will then make a decision on the cost advantage, if any, of purchasing
insurance. Our goal is to have the DRAFT ordinance read into the record on June 24.
We plan on pricing bonds June 27, and having a final purchase agreement and final
numbers for adoption on July 1, 2002.
This is a fairly routine bond issuance. We have not sold water/sewer bonds since 1994.
We did do a refunding in 1998. We have now refunded everything we can refund
unless, of course, the market changes even more, and we can refund the $10,000,000
of this issue. I cannot imagine that occurring, at this time. We sold LTGO bonds last
October for the garage. The rating agencies had few questions or issues because of
the timing.
Please feel free to call me with any questions. We will, of course, have firm numbers for
you on July 1 .
Recommendation
Council adopt an ordinance authorizing the sale of revenue bonds in an amount up to
$12,150,000 for the purposes of constructing various water, sewer and storm water utility
projects, and to refinance existing debt.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this subsection, (1)the City in its
discretion may sell or otherwise dispose of any of the works,plant, properties or facilities
of the Waterworks Utility or any real or personal property comprising a part of the same

operation of the Waterworks Utility, or no longer necessary, material to or useful to the
operation of the Waterworks Utility, without making any deposit into the Bond Fund, and
(2)the City may transfer the Waterworks Utility to another municipal corporation so long

including the amounts paid into the Bond Fund and Reserve Fund and into any and all
special funds or accounts created pursuant to this ordinance, the status of all funds and

(f) It will carry the types of insurance on the Waterworks Utility properties in
the amounts normally carried by private water and sewer companies engaged in the
operation of water and sewerage systems, and the cost of such insurance shall be
considered a part of operating and maintaining such utility. If, as, and when the United

adequate, in the reasonable judgment of the City, to protect the Waterworks Utility and

being included in gross income for federal income tax purposes, and it will neither take
any action nor make or permit any use of proceeds of the Bonds or other funds of the City
treated as proceeds of the Bonds at any time during the term of the Bonds which will
cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax
purposes. It will, to the extent arbitrage rebate requirements of Section 148 of the Code
are applicable to the Bonds,take all action necessary to comply (or to be treated as
having complied) with those requirements in connection with the Bonds, including the

to calculating rebatable arbitrage, and the payment of any other penalties if required
under Section 148 of the Code to prevent interest on the Bonds from being included in
gross income for federal income tax purposes.
The City certifies that it has not been notified of any listing or proposed listing by the
Internal Revenue Service to the effect that it is a bond issuer whose arbitrage certifications may
not be relied upon.
Section 20. No Private Activity Bonds. The City covenants that it will take no actions
and will make no use of the proceeds of the Bonds or any other funds held under this ordinance
which would cause any Bond to be treated as a"private activity bond" (as defined in Section
141(b) of the Code) subject to treatment under said Section 141(b) as an obligation not described
in Section 103(a) of the Code, unless the tax exemption thereof is not affected.
Section 21. Defeasance of the Bonds. The City may issue refunding bonds pursuant to
State law or use money available from any other lawful source to pay when due the principal of
and interest on the Bonds, or any portion thereof included in a refunding or defeasance plan, and
to redeem and retire, refund or defease all such then-outstanding Bonds (hereinafter collectively

called the "defeased Bonds") and to pay the costs of the refunding or defeasance. If money
and/or direct obligations of the United States of America maturing at a time or times and bearing
interest in amounts (together with money, if necessary) sufficient to redeem and retire, refund or
decrease the defeased Bonds in accordance with their terms are set aside in a special trust fund or
escrow account irrevocably pledged to that redemption, retirement or defeasance of defeased
Bonds (hereinafter called the "trust account"), then all right and interest of the Owners of the
defeased Bonds in the covenants of this ordinance, in Gross Revenue and in funds and accounts
obligated to the payment of the defeased Bonds, other than the right to receive the funds so set
aside and pledged, shall cease and become void. The owners of defeased Bonds shall have the
right to receive payment of the principal of and interest on the defeased Bonds from the trust
account and, if the funds in the trust account are not available for such payment, shall have the
residual right to receive payment of the principal of and interest on the defeased Bonds from
Gross Revenue without any priority of lien or charge against such revenue or covenants with
respect thereto except to be paid therefrom.
After the establishing and full funding of the trust account, the City may then apply any
money in any other fund or account established for the payment or redemption of the defeased
Bonds to any lawful purposes as it shall determine, subject only to the rights of the owners of
any other bonds then outstanding.
If the refunding plan provides that the defeased Bonds or the refunding bonds to be
issued be secured by cash and/or direct obligations of the United States of America or other legal
investments pending the prior redemption of the defeased Bonds and if such refunding plan also
provides that certain cash and/or direct obligations of the Untied States of America or other legal

investments are pledged irrevocably for the prior redemption of the defeased Bonds included in
that refunding plan, then only the debt service on the Bonds which are not defeased Bonds and
the refunding bonds,the payment of which is not so secured by the refunding plan, shall be
included in the computation of coverage for determining compliance with the rate covenants.
Section 22. Provision for Future Parity Bonds. The City reserves the right to issue
Future Parity Bonds which will constitute a lien and charge on Gross Revenue on a parity with
the Outstanding Parity Bonds, the 1998 Bonds and the Bonds if the conditions set forth in

No. 3720, are met and complied with at the time of the issuance of those Future Parity Bonds,
which sections are by this reference incorporated herein and made a part hereof and shall
continue to be applicable even though the 1953 Bonds have been paid and retired.

right of the City to issue bonds on a parity of lien with the 1977 Bonds, the 1988 Bonds, the 1989

shall provide for the payment of the principal thereof and interest thereon out of a Parity
Bond Fund.

amount plus Reserve Insurance or Alternate Security equal to the increase in the Reserve
Requirement attributable to those Future Parity Bonds. For federal income tax purposes,
at the discretion of the City, to the extent that the Reserve Requirement cannot be funded
from Future Parity Bond proceeds, the City shall provide for deposit into the Reserve
Fund other legally available money from Net Revenue or Reserve Insurance or Alternate
Security within three years from the date of issuance of the Future Parity Bonds in three
approximately equal annual payments.
(e) The ordinance authorizing the issuance of such Future Parity Bonds shall
provide for the payment of mandatory redemption or sinking fund requirements into the
applicable Parity Bond Fund for any Term Bonds to be issued and for regular payments
to be made for the payment of the principal of such Term Bonds on or before their
maturity, or, as an alternative,the mandatory redemption of those Term Bonds prior to
their maturity date from money in the applicable Parity Bond Fund.

any 12 consecutive calendar months out of the immediately preceding 36 calendar
months Net Revenue, without regard to deposits into or withdrawals from the

Parity Bonds plus the Future Parity Bonds proposed to be issued; or
(2) a certificate of a Professional Utility Consultant that in such
consultant's opinion Revenue for any 12 consecutive calendar months, without
regard to deposits into or withdrawals from the Rate Stabilization Fund, shall be

reflect:
(A) Any changes in rates in effect and being charged or
expressly committed by ordinance to be made in the future;
(B) Income derived from customers of the Waterworks Utility
who have become customers during the 12 consecutive month period or
thereafter adjusted to reflect one year's Net Revenue from those
customers;
(C) Income from any customers to be connected to the
Waterworks Utility who have paid the required connection charges;
(D) The Professional Utility Consultant's estimate of the Net
Revenue to be derived from customers anticipated to connect for whom
building permits have been issued;

any person, firm corporation or municipal corporation under any executed
contract for water, sewage disposal or other utility service, which revenue
was not included in the historical Net Revenue;

Revenue to be derived from customers with existing homes or buildings
which will be required to connect to any additions to and improvements
and extensions of the Waterworks Utility constructed and to be paid for

other additions to and improvements and extensions of the Waterworks
Utility when such additions, improvements and extensions are not
completed; and
(G) Any increases or decrease in Net Revenue as a result of any
actual or reasonably anticipated changes in Maintenance and Operation
Expense subsequent to the 12-month period.
If Future Parity Bonds proposed to be so issued are for the sole purpose of
refunding outstanding bonds payable from any Parity Bond Fund, such certification of
coverage shall not be required if the amount required for the payment of the principal and
interest in each year for the refunding bonds is not increased more than$5,000 over the
amount for that same year required for the bonds or the portion of that bond issue to be
refunded thereby and if the maturities of such refunding bonds are not extended beyond
the maturities of the bonds to be refunded thereby.
Nothing contained herein shall prevent the City from issuing Future Parity Bonds to
refund maturing Bonds or Future Parity Bonds then outstanding, money for the payment of
which is not otherwise available.
Nothing contained herein shall prevent the City from issuing revenue bonds that are a
charge upon Gross Revenue subordinate to the payments required to be made therefrom into any
Parity Bond Fund.
