Overview: During the recent Glencoe-Silver Lake School Board meeting, the primary focus was on the district’s financial strategies, especially regarding a potential refinancing opportunity for its existing bonds. Jeff Cely from ERS presented a analysis of the district’s general obligation school building bonds issued in 2015, which amount to approximately $23.7 million. The discussion centered on the prospects of refinancing these bonds early, potentially saving taxpayers around $280,000 over the lifespan of the bonds. However, this potential benefit is contingent upon fluctuating interest rates, which have been unpredictable due to market volatility.
