Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
There is submitted to herewith a certified copy of a resolution adopted
by the Drainage Board for the Wagner Drain authorizing the issuance of

public corporations the amount advanced from County funds at anytime in
fulfillment of the County's secondary pledge of its full faith and credit.
It is respectfully requested that the enclosed resolution be adopted for
the reasons set forth in the preamble thereto and because the pledge of
the County's full faith and credit will result in a material savings in
bond interest to be paid.
