clwalogoThe Castaic Lake Water Agency on Tuesday successfully completed bond sales of $16.75 million to refund an outstanding bond series, which will reduce the Agency’s annual debt service costs and result in savings to the Agency’s customers.  The annual savings will reduce debt service for capital improvement projects funded by taxpayers and developer impact fees.

High competition for the bonds led to securing a low rate of 1.286 percent, which will save the Agency $2.15 million over the six-year life of the bonds (10.5% net present value savings).  “Our strong financial and management policies, our secure water supply during a drought situation and good credit ratings helped to achieve the low rates and overall savings,” stated Tom Campbell, Agency Board President.  The Agency holds credit ratings of AA- from both Standard and Poor’s and Fitch Ratings.  These credit ratings are considered high quality for water utilities.
