MUSD gets record low rate for Measure AA, Series B General Obligations Bonds sale
With a favorable result that will save Milpitas taxpayers, the District successfully sold the second series of bonds, Series B, from its 2018 Measure AA authorization for $150,000,000, with a district record-low 2.084% All-in True Interest Cost.
"I can say with utmost confidence this is the lowest borrowing cost that Milpitas Unified has experienced through any of its prior general obligation bond sales," reported KNN Public Finance Principal/Managing Director Blake Boehm.
Assistant Superintendent Wendy Zhang, along with Boehm, provided the Board and community with a summary of the transaction,
which closed on September 29.
