The Division of Bond Finance of the State Board of Administration (the "Division"), on behalf of the Board of Regents, has submitted for approval as to fiscal sufficiency a proposal to issue an amount Not Exceeding $9,000,000 State of Florida, Board of Regents, Florida State University Housing Facility Revenue Bonds, Series 2001 (the "Bonds") for the purpose of paying the cost of renovation and improvement of a residence hall on the campus of the Florida State University, purchasing a municipal bond insurance policy and a debt service reserve account surety bond, and paying certain costs associated with the issuance and sale of the Bonds.

The Bonds are being issued pursuant to the Original Authorizing Resolution adopted by the Governor and Cabinet on November 17, 1992, as amended and restated on July 25, 2000. It is anticipated the Governor and Cabinet will adopt a sale resolution for the Bonds on January 23, 2001.

The Division on behalf of the Board of Regents has heretofore issued Florida State University Housing Revenue Certificates, Series 1993 and Housing Facility Revenue Bonds Series, 1994 and Series 1996 (the "Previous Bonds"), of which the principal amount of $22,995,000 was outstanding as of December 31, 2000. The Bonds shall be payable on a parity and rank equally as to lien on and source and security for payment from the Pledged Revenues (as defined in the resolution) and in all other respects, with the Previous Bonds.

A study of this proposal and the estimates of revenue expected to accrue from the Pledged Revenues indicate that the proposed bonds and all other outstanding bonds having a lien on the Pledged Revenues are fiscally sufficient and that the proposal will be executed pursuant to the applicable provisions of law.
