Pursuant to state statute, a school district may borrow money by issuing Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes (TRANS) for any purpose for which the school district is authorized to use and expend moneys, including, but not limited to, current expenses, capital expenditures, and the discharge of any obligation or indebtedness of the school district. When issued by the school district individually, such notes must be issued in the name of the school district by the Board of Supervisors. The school district pledges any taxes, income or revenue for payment of the notes, and the notes are a general obligation of the school district.

The Board of Trustees of the Sequoia Union High School District (the "District") passed a resolution on May 10, 2017, requesting the borrowing of funds not to exceed $16,000,000 through the issuance of 2017-18 Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes (the "Notes").

A copy of the District's Resolution has been filed with the Clerk of the Board.
