BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of o'tter Tail County, Minnesota,
THAT we understand that a bill will be introduced for an act distributing water safety funds solely
on a basis of w~ter area rather than the existing law which distributes funds on a basis of the population of an

we feel that with the large area of water in Otter Tail County, we are not receiving a proper share of the dis-
tribution,

of this Resolution and substantially the following:
"Both principal and interest will be payable at any suitable bank designated by the purchaser, and
unless $1,0CO·denominations are specified by the purchaser, the bonds will be in the denomination of
$5,000 each. The County will furnish printed bonds and approving legal opinion of Messrs. Faegre & Benson,
Minneapolis, Minnesota, both without expense to the purchaser, At the option of the purchaser, a copy of

purchaser in the State of Minnesota, or Chicago, Illinois, at the expense of the County, or elsewhere at
the purchaser's expense, accompanied by an unqualified approving legal opinion and customary final delivery
papers, including a certificate showing absence of litigation.
All bids must be in writing enclosed in a sealed envelope suitably marked as a bid for bonds, be

"Bids shall state· one basic rate of interest from the date of issue to maturity for all bonds having
a comir,on maturity date. Not more than five such rates shall be designated, and the maturities of the bonds
may be split no more than five ways for the purpose of designating such rates, and the basic rate·for the
bonds of any maturity shall not be lower th~n the basic rate for the bonds of any prior maturity. Any
bid may al.so provide that all or some of the bonds shall bear a single additional interest rate represented

interest may not exceed $6,000. The basic rate and the additional rate £or each bond, and the combination
of both rates must be in a multiple of 1/8 or 1/10 of 1% per annum and may not exceed 6% per annum.
The bid offering the lowest dollar interest cost (total interest from date of issue to stated maturities,
less any premium offered) will be deemed the most favorable. Bidders are asked, but not required, to state
total and average annual net interest cost. No oral bid or bid of less than par and accrued interest will
be considered. The County reserves the right to waive any infonnality in any bid, to reject any and all
bids and to adjourn the sale if deemed expedient."

construction of the Project, and the receipts and disbursements of the money derived from the operation of the
Porject, including credits and charges to the respective finds of the Project Revenue Account and to the Project

able than are required by persons applying for such space ?r ~acilities, the County he~eby covenan~s to and the
County welfare Board is directed to give preference and priority to the use of the ProJect, resulting to the
extent practicable in the occupancy and use of all of the space and services of the Project even if such preference
