                                                DEBT SERVICE FUND

                                          FOR FISCAL YEAR 2020-2021

                  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 $0.625159 tax rate, the amount needed to fund the 2020-2021 debt
                  payment will be $0.120973. Debt issuance finances the City's purchase of land and the construction
                  and reconstruction of buildings, street and drainage facilities and other infrastructure.
