This meeting was called for the sole purpose of considering the passage of an ordinance authorizing the sale of River Park Project bonds for The National. Discussion was held on the initial sale of the bonds being negotiated with United Missouri Bank (UMB) rather than being put out for bid, as Platte County did with a similar bond issue. The bonds are being issued at virtually the same rate of interest as the county’s, and it was agreed that UMB did a good job.
