The bonds were issued at an interest rate of 10 percent with interest payable on June 30 and December 31. In July 2018, interest rates declined substantially, and the county issued refunding bonds in the amount of $35 million at 5 percent. The proceeds of the refunding bonds were placed in escrow along with $2,800,000 held in the county’s debt service fund as a sinking fund for the 1998 debt.
