CITY OF HURST
DEBT SERVICE FUND
FOR FISCAL YEAR 2018-2019
The Debt Service Fund, also known as General Obligation Interest and Sinking Fund,
was established by ordinance to provide for the payment of general obligation bond
principal and interest as they come due. The property tax rate is required to be annually
computed and levied to provide the funding necessary to pay principal and interest.
This fund is also used to provide for the payment of fiscal agent fees. The General
Obligation debt is financed by property taxes and interest earned on investments. Of the
Approved $0.58 tax rate, the amount needed to fund the 2018-2019 debt payment will
be $0.108449. Debt issuance finances the City’s purchase of land and the construction
and reconstruction of buildings, street and drainage facilities and other infrastructure.
