BCDP Recommends YES on Ballot Question 3C*:

Rationale —

  • Using bonding and debt servicing spreads out the cost of needed infrastructure improvements over time to avoid rate spikes, which keeps rates more predictable for users.
  • Bond financing results in user rates that are initially lower than if cash were used to fund the improvements and distributes costs more equitably across both current and future residents.
  • Bond financing allows the City of Longmont to make improvements in the near future, rather than waiting until funds become available.
  • The proposed improvements are of value to residents of the City broadly because they protect public property and infrastructure from flooding risk.
