Industrial Revenue Bonds Mr. Orvin L. Olsen, Director Finance & International Trade, Minnesota Department Economic Development, indicated that up to now they have issued $312,000,000 worth of industrial revenue bonds and $13,000,000 worth of cor�nercial revenue bonds. In commercial revenue bonds the law was extended to cover the comnercial enterprises in 1974. There is a distinction between commercial enterprises and the tourist industy outside the metro area. The City of Plymouth did adopt certain guide1ines for issuing industrial revenue bonds, but they are too stringent and no company has been able to make use of it. Nis suggestion was that the Clty should not adopt any strict, well-defined guidelines, and they should decide each application on its own merit. Industrial revenue bond rate is from 7% to 10� which gives the saving of about 2% to 3% on interest rates for the company using this method of financing. The maximum amount industria1 revenue bonds can be sold for is $5,000,000 except there is no 1imit where the work is being done for pollution control purposes. After a lengthy discussion, the City Council instructed the staff to bring back for their consideration a resolution of intent regarding the industrial revenue bonds. It was also brought out during the discussion that administrative processing of such applications should include a close liaison with the State Department of Economic Development.
