BILL NUMBER:A9941 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the local finance law, in relation to the sale of munic- ipal obligations by the county of Erie PURPOSE OF THE BILL: To provide Erie County with sufficient flexibility in its bond sales to maximize its return on bonds sold. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: § 1- Amends Section 54.50 of the Local Finance Law to permit the County of Erie to market serial bonds at private sale through June 30, 2011. §2- Effective date. JUSTIFICATION: Recent swings in the stock market and confusion and uncertainty in the credit market mandate the need for greater flexibility in the marketing of bonds. In competitive sales the date of bidding is determined once the first advertisement is made, unless the sale is withdrawn and a new one advertised. In negotiated sales, the timing of sales is announced as an objective, but the date of the sale can be changed as required. This flexibility allows the County of Erie to adjust coupon rates, maturities and general conditions of the sales to ensure a more successful sale of the instruments.
