BACKGROUND: 

Pursuant to Section 147(f) of the Internal Revenue Code, prior to their issuance, the bonds are required to be approved by the “applicable elected representative” of the governmental unit having jurisdiction over the area in which the project is located, after a public hearing is held following reasonable public notice. Consequently, approval of the Board is needed to meet the requirements of Section 147(f).

On August 5, 2025, the Board conducted a public hearing and approved a resolution authorizing a Public Finance Authority (Wisconsin) tax-exempt or taxable 501(c)(3) revenue bond issue in an amount not to exceed $65,000,000. Due to construction delays, the bonds were not issued as previously planned. Issuance of the bonds is now moving forward, but closing will not occur prior to the one-year expiration of the prior Board approval
