Indian River County, Florida Notes To Financial Statements Year Ended September 30, 2019 78 NOTE 10 - LONG-TERM LIABILITIES - Continued B. Primary Government - Continued Limited General Obligation Refunding Note, Series 2015 Purpose - On April 7, 2015, the County voted to redeem $19,075,000 of outstanding 2006 Limited General Obligation Bonds with a 7 year note from Regions Capital Advantage, Inc. The refunding ultimately saved the County $1.2 million over the 7 year remaining life of the bonds. The aggregate difference in debt service between the 2015 note ($28,959,008) and the 2006 bonds ($30,315,331) was $1,356,323. These amounts included the 7/1/2015 and 7/1/2016 principal and interest payments which were excluded in the refunding. The net economic gain was $636,694 and is amortized over the life (72 months) of the new debt. The unamortized balance of $163,594 is reflected as a deferred outflow of resources on the Statement of Net Position. This refinancing lowered the annual debt service by $150,000.
