The Board of Education of the Butler R-V School unanimously voted on September 14, 2011 to refinance its Series 2006 Bonds resulting in an estimated reduction of future interest by $1,020,853. The reoffered yields on the $6,145,000 Series 2011 Refunding Bonds range from 0.50% to 3.15% compared to the reoffered yield of 3.75% to 4.375% on the Series 2006 Bonds used for classroom additions and remodeling improvements to the elementary and high school buildings. As Superintendent of Schools, I am excited and support the refunding option selected by the Board of Education. This plan allows some principal to be pushed forward in the first four years by absorbing the interest savings and thereafter permits the annual interest savings to boost debt service fund balances. It provides the most flexibility for the District to issue a future general obligation bond issue with voter approval within the existing debt service levy structure, blend in our current lease, or pay off bonds early.
