Projected Debt Capacity <br />Debt Financing is one way that the county has provided for its capital facility needs. The primary <br />rationale for providing capital facilities through indebtedness is that it spreads the cost of a facility <br />over its useful life and thus is paid for by those who will use the facility. <br />Table 6.14 identifies the amount of revenue that the County can raise by issuing revenue bonds. <br />Those bonds can be issued without a public vote. That table identifies the County's bonding capacity <br />for 10, 20, and 30 years. As table 6.14 indicates, the County's available bonding capacity for a 10 <br />year issue is $222,800,000, while its bonding capacity for a 30 year issue is $488,800,000. <br />Table 6.14: Indian River ounty Estimated Abili to Raise Bonds Without A Public Vote <br />Pledge Sources <br />Ten Years <br />(Bond Interest Rate @ <br />1.40%) <br />Twenty Years <br />(Bond Interest Rate <br />0,1.80%) <br />Thirty Years <br />(Bond Interest Rate @ <br />2.0% <br />Half Cent Sales Tax <br />$90,500,000 <br />$166)500,000 <br />$226,300,000 <br />Gas Taxes <br />$60,200,000 <br />$108,000,000 <br />$126 500 000 <br />Tourist Tax <br />$19,600,000 <br />$35,200,000 <br />$47,200,000 <br />County Revenue Program <br />First Guaranteed Entitlement <br />$1,900,000 <br />$3 400,000 <br />$4,600,000 <br />County Revenue Program <br />Second Guaranteed <br />Entitlement <br />$3,900,000 <br />$7,100,000 <br />$9,500,000 <br />Sub -Total <br />$176,100,000 <br />$320,200,000 <br />$414,100,000 <br />Possible Pledge Sources <br />Franchise Fees <br />$42,200,000 <br />$75,700,000 <br />$101,600,000 <br />Road Impact Fees <br />$20,900,000 <br />$36700,000 <br />$48,900,000 <br />Sub -Total <br />$63,100,000 <br />$112,400,000 <br />$15015009000 <br />TOTAL <br />$239,200,000 <br />$432,600,000 <br />$564,600,000 <br />*Rates are comparable term AAA rated municipal bond yields as of 9/25/2019. <br />Source: Indian River County Office of Management and Budget. <br />Debt Service Obligations <br />In table 6.15, the County's debt service obligations for current and anticipated bond issues are <br />summarized.
