Component

These four presentations on innovative transportation finance discuss bond financing. The first gives a brief overview of what is happening in Oklahoma in the area of debt financing for highway construction. The second covers three issues: the necessity for a highway program in Kansas, why sales taxes and bonds are used in Kansas, and the method used to sell bonds in Kansas. The third outlines several federal policy incentives in the area of tax policy and credit policy that can be used in connection with tax-exempt financing. The fourth covers the following areas: (1) Development of tax-exempt bond financing for highway and toll road projects; (2) Structuring of alternatives available to surface transportation entities; (3) Credit considerations and structuring enhancements that are key to developing programs and providing the lowest overall interest cost; (4) Marketing bonds to investors; and (5) Creation of a framework for future projects.
