<div>Kate,</div><div><br></div>The special legislative meeting on the 30th will be to approve (or not!) the refinancing legislation introduced on the 19th. There are also two pieces of legislation regulating "PODS" and dumpsters that will be approved (or not) at that meeting. The PODS/dumpsters legislation was introduced at the March legislative meeting, and discussed at the April regular legislative meeting, but needed some changes. <div>

<div>Kate,</div><div><br></div><div>The agenda is still being discussed (and can be changed at the meeting) but Ordinance 2012-OR-05 is the reason for calling the special legislative session. I will be introducing this ordinance to enable refinancing of the Town's debt to take advantage of currently-available low interest rates and save the Town money. We are doing this at a special legislative session to meet a tight schedule for paying off the old bonds -- if we don't pay it off in May, we have to wait until November to do so.</div>
