Based on our discussions with the City with respect to the utility revenue bond issue, we propose the following: Scope of Services HAI will review all the necessary documents and prepare a report incorporating the results of the engineering analyses and projections for use by the City in the preparation of an offering statement associated with the sale of utility system revenue bonds. The anticipated scope of work for this project will include the following tasks: 1. Data Acquisition and Review - detailed data regarding i) the most recent historical operating results of the GDU Sebastian Highlands water and wastewater systems; ii) customer and statistical data; iii) permitting and regulatory issues; and iv) other related information regarding the utility will be acquired and reviewed. 2.
