The County currently has <br />$6,900,000 in voter approved bonds authorized and unissued. <br />In addition to the use of bond proceeds, the ten-year capital plan calls for the combined use. of <br />pay-as-you-go funds and installment purchases to fund capital. During the next two years the Coun- <br />ty plans to issue Alternative Financing (direct bank placement or Certificates of Participation) under <br />the Qualified School Construction Bond (QSCB) Program as well as other Alternative Financing and <br />loans. The total amount is estimated to be between $54-56.5 million. The issuance of $4.1 million of <br />QSCB financing is scheduled for December to construct a High School Arts Wing for the Chapel Hill <br />Carrboro City School System. Additional financings include up to $1.5 million for technology and <br />communications projects, $2.7 million for Parks and Open Space, $8-10 million for a land fill trans- <br />fer station, $3.3 million for a Middle School Auditorium for the Orange County School System and <br />$31 million for a new elementary school for the Chapel Hill Carrboro City School System. Debt ser- <br />vice on the landfill transfer station financing would be paid from enterprise fund revenue. In addi- <br />tion the County plans to seek a State loan of $3.5 million for sewer system construction which would <br />be repaid from general revenue of the County. <br />19 <br />
