$300 Million Tax-exempt Financing for Sewer Improvements

Oceanside

Summary

The city took the first legal step toward financing major sewer projects — including decommissioning the La Salina treatment plant and consolidating flows to the San Luis Rey facility. No debt is issued yet, but the groundwork is laid for borrowing that will ultimately be paid by ratepayers and developer fees.
