THE PROJECT
In 2009, the Authority issued its bonds to finance capital improvements for
different facilities owned and operated by Marc Center of Mesa, Inc., primarily in the East
Valley portion of Maricopa County.
In 2013, the Authority issued its bonds to (i) refund the outstanding 2009 Bonds;
and (ii) to finance and refinance the acquisition, renovation, improvement, expansion,
construction, equipping and operation of certain new and existing capital projects.
The proposed current financing contemplates the issuance of not to exceed
$20,000,000 of the Authority's Revenue Bonds, which will be purchased in their entirety by
Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and approximately one-half of the proceeds of which
will be used to (i) refund/refinance the outstanding bonds issued by the Authority in 2013 for the
benefit of Marc Community Resources, Inc., and (ii) approximately one-half of the proceeds of
which will be used to finance the acquisition, renovation, improvement, expansion, construction,
equipping and operation of new and existing capital projects located in different locations within
the greater Phoenix area, to be used for residential living and related capital projects.

1986, as amended, will be held on March 20, 2018, ahead of the Maricopa County Board of
Supervisors meeting on March 21, 2018, and a Report of Public Hearing will be delivered to the

LEGAL COUNSEL RECOMMENDATION
As counsel to the Authority, we have reviewed drafts of principal financing
documents, we have been advised that these documents are now in substantially final form, and
based upon our review of such and our review of the proceedings of the Authority to date
relating to the proposed issuance of the Bonds, we believe the financing documents and
proceedings are in substantial conformance with the policies and guidelines of the Authority and
are in both form and substance acceptable for the Authority Board and Maricopa County Board
of Supervisors to act upon and that the Resolution presented to the Authority Board relating to
authorizing the issuance and sale of the Bonds, and related matters, and the Resolution of the
Maricopa County Board of Supervisors will be asked to adopt are in form and substance
acceptable for the adoption.
