  • Implementation & Funding Plan
    PLATTE COUNTY LONG‐TERM CARE STUDY Implementation/Funding Plan New Nursing Home There are several sources of funding available for the construction of the new $6.3 million nursing home: General Obligation Bonds Revenue Bonds Hospital District Mill Levy Capital Facility Tax (special purpose excise tax) State Loan & Investment Board (SLIB) Consensus and/or Mineral Royalty grants U.S. Department of Agriculture/Rural Development programs Wyoming Business Council/Business Ready Community Grant & Loan program Local fundraising Private grants Revenue from the new assisted living facility Each of these potential funding sources has certain attributes to be considered, including their respective costs, uses, and likelihood of availability. They will each be discussed below. General Obligation Bonds General obligation bonds pledge the "full faith and credit" of the issuing local government, which would either be Platte County or the Platte County Hospital District. The entity pledging its assets then agrees to use tax money to repay the debt. There are statutory limits to the total mills that can be assessed on property tax valuation in the issuance of general obligation bonds. General obligation bonds cannot be issued unless a majority of the voters approves the assessment. Wyoming Statute 35‐2‐415 provides the authorization for the hospital district board (or Platte County itself) to issue general obligation bonds. Bonds may be issued in an amount not to exceed 5% of the district’s assessed valuation. Based on current estimates of Platte County’s assessed valuation, the maximum amount of general obligation debt the hospital district could issue would be $7,448,259.

Fifty years ago, as a blushing youth of 14, I read the first volume of The Hugo Winners – a series I fervently wish some publisher would revive. Within, no less an authority than Isaac Asimov heaped praise on a novel originally published in 1939, Sinister Barrier by Erik Frank Russell. In subsequent years I never got around to reading the book until, aground in Florida in forced retirement, I thought to correct this lifelong lapse and ordered a cheap reading copy from eBay.

Downloaded On 2021/09/26 14:04:02 -0400 Law Clerks: A Jurisprudential Lens Perry Dane* INTRODUCTION 2019 was the putative hundredth anniversary of the formal institution of Supreme Court law clerks.1 It is understandable at this milestone to focus on biography, history, and warm personal reminiscences. As a former clerk to Justice William J. Brennan Jr., memories of my time with him remain sharply etched and deeply meaningful.2 My concern in this Essay is more abstract, however. My aim is to use the simple fact that law clerks (not just Supreme Court law clerks) often draft opinions as a lens through which to reflect on several jurisprudential issues, including the institutional structures of each of the three branches of our government, the nature of the judicial function, and the interpretation of judicial and other legal texts. Along the way, I also propose some tentative conclusions about the legitimacy and hermeneutical relevance of the law clerk’s role.
