My District Needs to Borrow Money… Now What?

August 6, 2025

Need to borrow money for a big project?

Join us on August 26, 2025 at the 2025 CSDA Annual Conference for a practical session on how to successfully navigate the municipal financing process and get your project funded.

 

The session focuses on practical aspects of capital projects funding:

  • How the municipal financing process is organized
  • What team members you need to have on board
  • How to select appropriate financing tools
  • Why interest rate is not the only criteria you should consider
  • Decision-making process when you are caught in a market storm
  • What on-going responsibilities you have once debt is issued

 

Don’t miss this session if your district is planning to borrow funds in the near future!
