year.
Section 11. Funds and Accounts; Flow of Funds . All Revenues
of the System shall be set aside as collected and credited to a
fund established with the Depository to be designated WATER
SUPPLY AND ELECTRIC UTILITY SYSTEM RECEIVING FUND. The Revenues
so credited are pledged for the purpose of the following funds
and shall be transferred from the Receiving Fund periodically in
the manner and at the times hereinafter specified:
A. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE FUND: Periodically, out of the
Revenues credited to the Receiving Fund there shall be first set
aside in, or credited to-, a fund designated OPERATION AND MAINTE-
NANCE FUND, a sum sufficient to provide for the payment during
the succeeding period of the next month's expenses of administra-
tion and operation of the System, including such current expenses
for the maintenance thereof as may be necessary to preserve the
same in good repair and working order.
B. BOND AND INTEREST REDEMPTION FUND: There shall be
established and maintained a fund designated BOND AND INTEREST
REDEMPTION FUND, the moneys on deposit therein from time to time
to be used solely, except for required deposits to the Rebate
Fund, for the purpose of paying the principal of, redemption
premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds . The moneys in the
Redemption Fund, including the Reserve Account, shall be kept on
deposit with the bank or trust company which is the Transfer
Agent.
After provision for the Operation and Maintenance Fund, there
shall be set aside on or before the first day of each month,
commencing December 1, 1989, in the Redemption Fund a sum propor-
tionately sufficient to provide for the payment when due of the
current principal of and interest on the Bonds, less any amount
in the Redemption Fund representing accrued interest on the
Bonds . Commencing December 1, 1989, the amount set aside each
month for interest on the Bonds shall be 1/7 of the interest on
the Bonds due July 1, 1990, and commencing July 1, 1990, and
thereafter the amount set aside each month for interest on the
Bonds shall be 1/6 of the interest on the Bonds next coming due.
-12-
ATTACHMENT A
The amount set aside each month for principal, commencing
December 1, 1989, shall be 1/7 of the amount of principal due on
the Bonds on July 1, 1990, and commencing July 1, 1990, and
thereafter the amount set aside each month for principal of the
Current Interest Bonds shall be 1/12 of the total amount of the
principal of the Bonds due on the next July 1 and 1/12 of the
maturing amount of Capital Appreciation Bonds due one year or
less from the 1st day of such month. If there is any deficiency
in the amount previously set aside, that deficiency shall be
added to the requirements for the next succeeding month.
There shall be established a separate account in the Redemp-
tion Fund to be known as the BOND RESERVE ACCOUNT. On the date
of delivery of any Additional Bonds issued pursuant to Section
18(a) or (c) of this Bond Resolution, the Board shall transfer to
the Bond Reserve Account from the proceeds of the Additional
Bonds or any other available source the lesser of (a) 10% of the
proceeds of the Additional Bonds and (b) the maximum Aggregate
Debt Service Requirement on the Additional Bonds for the then
current and any subsequent operating year and commencing on the
1st day of the month following delivery of the Additional Bonds
and on the 1st day of each month thereafter until the amount in
the Bond Reserve Account equals the Reserve Requirement, 1/12 of
the difference between the amount deposited on the delivery of
the Additional Bonds and the Reserve Requirement.
Except as otherwise provided in this Bond Resolution, the
moneys credited to the Bond Reserve Account shall be used solely
for the payment of the principal of, redemption premium, if any,
and interest on Bonds as to which there would otherwise be a
default. If at any time it shall be necessary to use moneys
credited to the Bond Reserve Account for such payment, then the
moneys so used shall be replaced from the Net Revenues first
received thereafter which are not required for expenses of
administration, operation and maintenance of the system or for
current principal and interest requirements on any of the Bonds.
The Board may satisfy the Reserve Requirement by a letter of
credit, a surety bond or an insurance policy if the provider or
issuer thereof shall be rated Aaa by Moody's Investors Service
and AAA by Standard and Poor's Corporation.
If at any time the amount in the Bond Reserve Account exceeds
the Reserve Requirement, the excess may be transferred to such
fund or account as the Board may direct.
C. JUNIOR LIEN BOND AND INTEREST REDEMPTION FUND: If the
Board shall ever issue Junior Lien Bonds, there shall be estab-
lished and maintained a separable depositary fund for the purpose

shall be immediately deposited in the Redemption Fund an amount
equal to the accrued interest and premium, if any, received on

the City shall receive a credit equal to the amount so deposited
against the amount required to be deposited in the Redemption
Fund for payment of the next maturing interest on the Current

the Series 1989B Bonds .
Section 17 . Covenants . The City covenants and agrees with
the Registered Owners of the Bonds that so long as any of the
Bonds remain as Outstanding Bonds and unpaid as to either princi-
pal or interest:
(a) The Board will maintain the System in good repair
and working order and will operate the same efficiently and
will faithfully and punctually perform all duties with refer-
ence to the System required by the Constitution and laws of
the State of Michigan and this Bond Resolution.
(b) The City and the Board will not sell, lease, mort-
gage or otherwise dispose of any part of the System, except
for sales or exchanges of property or facilities ( 1) which
are not useful in the operation of the System, or (2) for
which the proceeds received are, or the fair market value of
the subject property is, less than 1% of the Revenues for the
preceding fiscal year, or ( 3) which will not impair the
ability of the Board to comply with the rate covenant
described in Section 9 of this Bond Resolution.
Section 18. Additional Bonds . The right is reserved, in
accordance with the provisions of Act 94, to issue additional
bonds payable from the Net Revenues of the System which shall be
of equal standing and priority of lien on the Net Revenues of the
System with the Series 1989A Bonds and the Series 1989B Bonds,
but only for the following purposes and under the following terms
and conditions:
(a) For repairs, extensions, enlargements and improve-
ments to the System or for the purpose of refunding a part of
any Outstanding Bonds (unless such partial refunding is done
in compliance with (b) below) and paying costs of issuing
such Additional Bonds, including deposits which may be
required to be made to a bond reserve account. Bonds for
-16-
ATTACHMENT A
such purposes shall not be issued pursuant to this subpara-
graph (a) unless the average actual or augmented Net Revenues
of the System for the fiscal year of the System ending not
more than 15 months prior to the sale of Additional Bonds
shall be equal to at least one hundred twenty five ( 125%)
percent of the maximum Aggregate Debt Service Requirement in
any current or future fiscal year on the Outstanding Bonds
and on the Additional Bonds then being issued. If the Addi-
tional Bonds are to be issued in whole or in part for refund-
ing Outstanding Bonds, the maximum Aggregate Debt Service
shall be determined by deducting from the principal and
interest requirements for each operating year the annual
Aggregate Debt Service Requirement of any Bonds to be
refunded from the proceeds of the Additional Bonds.
Net Revenues may be augmented as follows for the pur-
poses of this subsection (a) :
( 1) If the System rates, fees or charges shall be
increased at or prior to the time of authorizing
the Additional Bonds, the Net Revenues may be aug-
mented by an amount which in the opinion of the
Consulting Engineer will reflect the effect of the
increase had the System's billings during such time
been at the increased rates.
(2) The actual Net Revenues may be augmented by the
estimated increase in Net Revenues which in the
opinion of the Consulting Engineer will accrue as a
result of new customers which have not been ser-
viced during the fiscal year described in paragraph
(a) above or as a result of the acquisition of the
repairs, extensions, enlargements and improvements
to the System which have been made during or sub-
sequent to the fiscal year described in paragraph
(a) above or which will be acquired in whole or in
part from the proceeds of the Additional Bonds to
be issued.
No Additional Bonds of equal standing as to the Net
Revenues of the System shall be issued pursuant to the autho-
rization contained in subparagraphs (a) or (c) if the City
shall then be in default in making its required payments to
the Operation and Maintenance Fund or the Redemption Fund.
(b) For refunding all of the Outstanding Bonds and
paying costs of issuing such Additional Bonds . For refunding
a part of the Outstanding Bonds and paying costs of issuing
such Additional Bonds, if after giving effect to the refund-
ing the maximum amount of Aggregate Debt Service in each
future fiscal year shall be less than the Aggregate Debt
-17-
ATTACHMENT A
Service in each future fiscal year prior to giving effect to
the refunding.
(c) Additional Bonds may be issued without meeting any
of the conditions and tests set forth in subsection (a) above
for any one or more of the following purposes: ( 1) to pay
the cost of acquisition and construction of any repairs,
replacements, betterments, improvements, major renewals or
corrections of any damage or loss to the System necessary, in
the opinion of the Consulting Engineer, to keep the System in
good operating condition or to prevent a loss of Revenues
therefrom or (ii) to pay the cost of decommissioning, dis-
posal or termination of the System.
Determination by the Board as to existence of conditions permit-
ting the issuance of Additional Bonds shall be conclusive.
Notwithstanding the foregoing requirements of Section 18, the
Board reserves the right to issue Junior Lien Bonds payable as
provided herein.
Section 19. Events of Default. Each of the following
events, with respect to an issue of Bonds, is hereby declared an
"Event of Default" :
(a) default in the payment of the principal of, or
interest, or redemption premium, if any, on any Bond after
the same shall become due, whether at maturity or upon call
for redemption; or
(b) default by the City or the Board in the performance
or observance of any other of the covenants, agreements or
conditions on their part in this Bond Resolution, or con-
tained in the Bonds; provided no default shall constitute an
Event of Default until written notice thereof shall have been
given by the Registered Owners of not less than twenty per-
cent (20%) in principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds to
the City and the City shall have had sixty (60) days after
receipt of such notice to correct such default or cause the
same to be corrected and shall not have corrected such
default or caused the same to be corrected within such
period; and provided, further, that if the default be such
that it cannot be corrected within such period, it shall not
constitute an Event of Default if action to correct the same
is instituted within such period and diligently pursued until
the default is corrected.
Section 20. Appointment of Receiver and Statutory Rights .
The Registered Owners of Bonds representing in the aggregate
principal amount not less than twenty percent (20%) of all Out-
standing Bonds, may protect and enforce the statutory lien and
-18-
ATTACHMENT A
pledge of the funds and accounts and Net Revenues created by Act
94, and enforce and compel the performance of all duties of the
officials of the City and the Board, including the fixing of
sufficient rates, the collection of Revenues, the proper segrega-
tion of Revenues, and the proper application of Revenues . In
addition to the rights conferred to Registered Owners by the
Resolution, the Registered Owners shall have all the rights con-
ferred by Act 94. The statutory lien upon the Net Revenues,
however, shall not be construed to compel the sale of the System
or any part thereof.
Section 21. Effect of Waiver and Other Circumstances . No
delay or omission of any Registered Owner to exercise any right
or power arising upon the happening or an Event of Default shall
impair any right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver of
any such Event of Default or be an acquiescence therein and every
power and remedy given by this Bond Resolution to the Registered
Owners may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be
deemed expedient by the Registered Owners.
Section 22 . Bond Form. The Current Interest Bonds shall be

diminishing the security hereby granted to the
Registered Owners of any Outstanding Bonds .
Any amendment or supplemental resolution or resolution autho-
rized by the provisions of this Section 23(a) may be adopted by
the City, by and through its Board, without the consent of or

-36-
ATTACHMENT A
successful bidder and the successful bidder shall be the initial

PURPOSE AND SECURITY: The bonds are issued under the provisions
of Act 94, Public Acts of Michigan 1933, as amended, and a bond
resolution (the "Bond Resolution" ) adopted by the Board of Water
and Light of the City of Lansing ( "Board" ) on September 26, 1989,
for the purpose of paying part of the cost of remodeling,
updating and extending the life of the water supply and electric
utilities of the City of Lansing, Michigan, and to pay issuance
costs for the bonds .
The bonds, except to the extent payable from bond proceeds, are
payable solely from the net revenues of the water supply and
distribution and electric, heat and steam generating and distri-
bution systems (the "System" ) of the City of Lansing and any
additions thereto, and a statutory first lien on the net revenues
of the System has been established by the Bond Resolution. The
Board has covenanted and agreed to fix and maintain at all times
while any of such bonds shall be outstanding such rates for
service furnished by the System as shall be sufficient to provide
for payment of the necessary expenses of operation, maintenance
and administration of the System, of the principal and interest
on all of said bonds when due, and to provide for such other
expenditures and funds for the System as are required by the Bond
Resolution.
The City, acting through its Board, anticipates that it will
issue Water Supply And Electric Utility System Revenue Bonds,
Series 1989B in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed
$3,000,000, the proceeds of which will be used for the same pur-
pose as the proceeds of the Series 1989A Bonds, which bonds shall
be secured on a parity with the Series 1989A Bonds.
The rights and remedies of bondholders may be affected by bank-
ruptcy laws or other creditors ' rights legislation now existing
or hereafter enacted.
GOOD FAITH: A certified or cashier's check in the amount of
$280,000 drawn upon an incorporated bank or trust company and
payable to the order of the Treasurer of the Board of Water and
Light must accompany each bid as a guarantee of good faith on the
part of the bidder, to be forfeited as liquidated damages if such
bid be accepted and the bidder fails to take up and pay for the
bonds. No interest shall be allowed on the good faith checks and
checks of the unsuccessful bidders will be promptly returned to
each bidder's representative or by registered mail. The good
faith check of the successful bidder will be immediately cashed
and payment for the balance of the purchase price of the bonds
shall be made at the closing.
-37-
ATTACHMENT A
AWARD OF BONDS: The bonds will be awarded to the bidder whose
bid produces the lowest interest cost computed by determining at
the rate or rates specified in the bid, the total dollar value of
all interest on the bonds from November 1, 1989, to their matur-
ity and deducting therefrom any premium.
LEGAL OPINION: Bids shall be conditioned upon the approving
opinion of Dickinson, Wright, Moon, Van Dusen & Freeman, attor-
neys of Lansing and Detroit, Michigan, a copy of which opinion
will be printed on the reverse side of each bond, and the
original of which will be furnished without expense to the pur-
chaser of the bonds at the delivery thereof. The fees of
Dickinson, Wright, Moon, Van Dusen & Freeman for services
rendered in connection with such approving opinion are expected
to be paid from bond proceeds . Except to the extent necessary to
issue its approving opinion as to the validity of the bonds,
Dickinson, Wright, Moon, Van Dusen & Freeman has made no inquiry
as to any financial information, statements or material contained
in any financial documents, statements or materials that have
been or may be furnished in connection with the authorization,
issuance or marketing of the bonds, and accordingly will not
express any opinion with respect:. to the accuracy or completeness
of any such financial information, statements or materials.
TAX MATTERS: The approving opinion of bond counsel will include
an opinion to the effect that under existing law, the interest on
the bonds (a) is excluded from gross income for federal income
tax purposes, (b) is not an item of tax preference for purposes
of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and
corporations; such opinion will note, however, that certain cor-
porations must take into account interest on the bonds in deter-
mining adjusted net book income (adjusted current earnings for
taxable years beginning after December 31, 1989) for the purpose
of computing such alternative minimum tax. The opinion set forth
in clause (a) above will be subject to the condition that the
City of Lansing comply with all requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code" ) , that must be sat-
isfied subsequent to the issuance of the bonds in order that
interest thereon be (or continue to be) excluded from gross
income for federal income tax purposes . Failure to comply with
certain of such requirements could cause the interest on the
bonds to be included in gross income retroactive to the date of
issuance of the bonds. The City of Lansing has covenanted to
comply with all such requirements. Bond counsel will express no
opinion regarding other federal tax consequences arising with
respect to the bonds .
The City of Lansing has not designated the bonds as ' qualified
tax-exempt obligations" for purposes of Section 265(b) (3) of the
Code.
-38-
ATTACHMENT A
The successful bidder will be required, as a condition of deliv-
ery of the bonds, to certify the "issue price" of the bonds
within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Code. The form of an
acceptable certificate will be provided by bond counsel.
In addition, the approving opinion of bond counsel will include
an opinion to the effect that under existing law, the bonds and
the interest thereon are exempt from all taxation in the State of
Michigan except inheritance taxes and taxes on gains realized
form the sale, payment or other disposition thereof.
CUSIP: CUSIP numbers will be imprinted on all bonds of this
issue at the issuer's expense. An improperly printed number will
not constitute a basis for the purchaser to refuse to accept
delivery.
DELIVERY OF BONDS: The City of Lansing will furnish bonds ready
for execution at its expense. Bonds will be delivered without
expense to the purchaser at New York, New York, Chicago,
Illinois, or Detroit, Michigan. The usual closing documents
including a certificate that no litigation is pending affecting
the issuance of the bonds, will be delivered at the time of the
delivery of the bonds . If the bonds are not tendered for deliv-
ery by twelve o'clock noon, Eastern Standard Time, on the 45th
day following the day of sale, or the first business day there-
after if said 45th day is not a business day, the successful
bidder may on that day, or any time thereafter until delivery of
the bonds, withdraw his proposal by serving notice of cancella-
tion, in writing, on the undersigned, in which event the City of
Lansing shall promptly return the good faith deposit. Payment

GENERAL MANAGER'S REMARKS
In the absence of the General Manager and the Assistant General
Manager, Electric Utility Director Roy Peffley briefed the
Commissioners on the following BWL activities:
COAL REPORT. The BWL coal inventory is at 56 days based on the current
system burn of 3,000 tons/day. The goal is for a 60-day supply.
CONSENT ORDER - OTTAWA STATION. A copy of a Notice of Intent to enter
into a Final Order by Consent with the State of Michigan, dated
October 20, 1989, and signed by Assistant General Joseph Wolfe,
relative to the Ottawa Station was handed out for review. At the
September 26, 1989 regular meeting it was indicated that a resolution
authorizing the General Manager to enter into a Consent Order would be
presented to the Board in October for approval. Mr. Peffley reported
that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Air Quality Division has
been issuing a number of citations across the country. After learning
last week that the BWL would be among those to be cited, the decision
was made by the General Manager to move swiftly and to sign a letter of
intent prior to the October 24 Board meeting. As proof of the BWL's
commitment in addressing the opacity problem at Ottawa Station, staff
determined that it would be in the utility's best interest to
immediately file a Notice of Intent with the Department of National
Resources (DNR) Air Quality Division. Following discussion, the
Commissioners concurred with this strategy.
E.P.A. CITATION - MOORES PARK STATION. Mr. Peffley reported that an
_.._......_.............. ......................_ ...................__.................._...........................I............._......
EPA citation was received on October 24, 1989 for opacity violations at
Moores Park Station. The Commissioners will receive a report on this
citation once a complete examination is made on the charges. It was
pointed out that ongoing life extension projects at Moores Park Station
should satisfy the violations cited.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE REPORT. A copy of an accounts receivable report
_...... ... ............._.................
.
for 13 months ending June 1989 was handed out for review. On a related
matter, Mr. Peffley reported on the impact that the closing of Lindell
Drop Forge will have on the BWL's accounts receivable. Lindell is a
$400,000 per year customer. Staff is currently communicating with
other major creditors to assure Lindell pays their current bills.
Lindell presently owes the BWL approximately $30,000, and credit
arrangements are being made with the attorney representing Lindell.
Concern was also expressed regarding demand and ratchet charges for
electric, which could have a considerable impact on future monthly
billings to Lindell. The Board will be kept advised of further
negotiations.
172
October 24, 1989
1989 UNITED WAY REPORT. The BWL surpassed its 1989 monetary goal,
. . .. ...
thanks. .. .. .. to outstanding support from employees. A total of $106,486 was
raised, representing 4% over the goal of $102,000, which qualifies the
BWL for the Gold Award. Mr. Peffley pointed out that this is an
excellent accomplishment considering that the BWL has fewer employees
as compared to last year. BWL United Way Campaign Co-Chairs Terry
Graham and Steve Simpson were complimented for their outstanding
efforts. Electric Utility Coordination Director Dick Sevic was also
recognized for his involvement in the United Way's Loaned Executive
Program. An article mentioning the BWL's contribution to United Way
will appear in the LANSING STATE JOURNAL on October 26.
ERICKSON „STATION OUTAGE. The 18 month scheduled preventive maintenance
outage of Erickson S I.ta 1.tion began September 30, 1989 and is expected to
be completed by October 28, 1989. With the exception of five outages
totalling 36 hours, Erickson Station has operated continuously over
this 18 month period with an availability of 91.7%--the national
availability average for similar plants is 80%. Mr. Peffley noted that
the Preventive Maintenance Program implemented in 1986 is paying off.
COAL FREEZEPROOFING. An innovative alternative to traditional freeze
conditioning prac 1.tices was explained. It was reported that chemical
freezeproofing eliminates coal from freezing into solid chunks. This
new approach could save the BWL as much as $78,000/yr. The Fuels
Procurement Department has gone out for bids and selected Nalco
Chemical Company to administer its freeze conditioning program for this
season.
PUBLIC POWER WEEK. Seventeen BWL employees chose to become involved in
a bike-a-thon known as "Pedaling for Public Power" in observance o
Public Power Week (October 8-14) . This involved soliciting pledges
from BWL employees and friends and bicycling around the BWL service
territory for approximately 65 :Hiles. A total of $1,269 was raised and
the proceeds are being donated to the Area 8 Special Olympics on behalf
of the BWL.
DISTRICT COOLING STUDY. A copy of a Feasibility Study for a District
Cooling Program at the BWL was handed out for information. The results
of the study will be reviewed with the Commissioners and staff
recommendations on this proposed new venture will be presented at the
November Committee of the Whole meeting.
173
October 24, 1989
REMARKS BY BOARD COMMISSIONERS
Commissioner Williams remarked that he found the Electric Utility
Fiscal Year 1988-89 Annual Review very informative. He asked for a
briefing on the decision that led to the change from SUPREMA to the
MAPCON II maintenance management system.
Mr. Peffley responded that staff encountered a great deal of difficulty
with SUPREMA because it was a source coded program, which made it very
cumbersome. Following negotiations with Sperry, the BWL was able to
receive its portion of the software cost. MAPCON is user friendly and
is working very successfully in all BWL maintenance activities.
BY COMMISSIONER JESSOP--
SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER BELEN
That the absences of Commissioners McComb and Sebolt be
excused.
Adopted unanimously.

Page 2
defined by Chapter 12 of the 1988 U.B.C. , for the purpose of sleeping
approximately 75 children between the age of 8 and 13 years at the
Impressions 5 Science Museum. See attached letter dated November
8, 1989.
The entire museum is contained within a two story structure with
exterior masonry walls and heavy timber roof and floor construc-
tion. The principal use of this building is classified as A-2.1 .
The Board completed a walk-through of the facilities to include the
first floor.
The proposed first floor sleeping area has two direct exits to the
outside, operational sprinklers and a smoke detection system. The
walls and ceilings are constructed of materials affording at least
one-hour fire resistive construction. Mr. Gruber stated that all
interior partitions within the sleeping area were to be removed to
provide unobstructed vision to the two exterior exits.
Mr. Jones moved to classify this space as an R-1 occupancy as
defined by the 1988 Edition of the U.B.C. Mr. Jones further moved
that the appeal be granted providing the following conditions were
complied with :
1. Smoke detection system up-graded as required by the Fire
Marshal .
2. No combustibles to be located in lower office area.
3. Bathroom on lower level shall be put back in service.

was supported by Joe Wilcox. Motion carried unanimously.
