Fiscal Note
The City recently received a payment of $418,000 as payback for a WHEDA- administered Housing Development Grant made to Cardinal Associates of Madison LLC in 1986. The scheduled loan repayment was 2016, but the loan has been paid back earlier. These revenues were not anticipated as part of the 2013 adopted budget. (A total of $383,300 of the repayment funds have been committed via the Council's previously approved expenditure of $183,300 via Legistar #29756, RES-13-00306, adopted 4.30/13, and an additional $200,000 via Legistar #30635, RES-13-00574, adopted 7/16/13.)
