APPLICATION TO STATE BOARD OF FINANCE FOR
ASSISTANCE UNDER CITY -COUNTY TOURIST MEETING
AND ENTERTAINMENT FACILITIES ASSISTANCE LAW
Applicant: City of Fayetteville, Arkansas.
Contact person: Donald L. Grimes, City Manager, or
•
James N. McCord, City Attorney, Post Office Drawer F, Fayetteville,
Arkansas 72701.
Eligible facilities: Tourist meeting facilities con-
sisting of a 40,500 square foot, 5 -story convention center
and adjacent parking facilities consisting of a 3 -level 290
space parking garage.
The Convention Center is located at the northeast
corner of the downtown square (intersection of Center Street
and East Avenue). It consists of auditoriums, meeting
rooms, and office space. The Convention Center, completed
in the Fall of 1981, has been leased by the City of Fayetteville
to the University of Arkansas for use by the University's
Division of Continuing Education in conducting educational
programs, short courses and seminars on a regional and
statewide basis. The seminars will be taught to groups of
both professional and nonprofessional status. These persons
will pay a fee to the University for their attendance at the
various functions. During periods of non-use by the University,
the Center is available to the general public so long as
such use does not conflict with the public use policies of
the University Board of Trustees for off -campus facilities.
The lease limits the fees the University may charge the
general public for use of the Convention Center to the cost
to the University of custodian, janitorial, and other special
services (exclusive of utility services) in connection with
such use.
The lease between the University and the City is for a
term of 23 years, subject to biennial appropriations by the
General Assembly. The basic rent payable by the University,
$122,000.00 per year,lhas been pledged by the City toward
the debt service on tourism revenue bonds issued by the City
to finance construction of the Convention Center. Under the
lease, the University is responsible for all operation and
maintenance expenses of the Center.
A 290 -space, 3 -level parking garage has been constructed
by the City on property iuuuediately northeast of the Convention
Center. The garage was financed from the proceeds of parking
revenue bonds. It will be operated by a parking management
company with whom the City has contracted. The facility
will be available to the general public on a first-come,
first-served basis. The operator will charge .hourly rates
as specified by the City; provided, spaces on the uppermost
level will be leased on a monthly basis during normal business
hours with said spaces to be made available to the general
public after normal business hours on a first-come, first-
served basis upon payment of a gate entry fee.
Fayetteville, a City of approximately 36,800 persons,
was without a Convention Center prior to construction of the
existing facility and adjacent parking garage. A 250 -room
Hilton Hotel has been constructed immediately north of the
Convention Center by private developers. Thus, the City can
now offer a Convention Center with proper seating and acoustics
conveniently located to parking facilities and room accommo-
dations. The complex is only one block from the business
route of the only interstate highway traversing the City of
Fayetteville.
Financing of eligible facilities:
The City financed construction of the Convention Center
by issuing $4,475,000.00 in tourism revenue bonds under Act
No. 380 of the Acts of Arkansas of 1971, as amended, and
financed construction of the 3 -level, 290 -space parking
garage adjacent to the Convention Center by issuing $591,000
1The annual rent is equivalent to $3.00 per square foot.

ESTIMATED FUNDS AVAILABLE FROM ACT 763
ACTS -0F ARKANSAS OF 1977, FOR THE
CENTER FOR CONTINUING EDUCATION
FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS
This report contains estimates of the economic impact, and consequent
state tax flows, that may be generated by the visitors utilizing the
Center for Continuing Education constructed by the City of Fayetteville.
The methodology used in generating the estimates presented here has been
patterned after that contained in a letter submitted by the City of
Little Rock to the State Board of Finance on June 8, 1977.
ACT 763, ACTS OF ARKANSAS
OF 1977, AS AMENDED
This act provides the possibility for acquiring State funds to
support the .construction of tourist meeting facilities. Application for
such funds must be made to the State Board of Finance and if the Board
rules the subject tourist meeting facilities to be eligible, the city or
county making the application may receive from one-third to two-thirds
of the additional State tax revenue generated by the facility, not to
exceed 80 percent of the debt service requirements of the facility.
The Act specifies that an investment multiplier of from 2 to S can
be used in making the revenue estimates. It also provides that only
increases in State revenues resulting from the use of the facility, and
after allowing for any increases in State costs, shall be considered in
determining the amount to be refunded to a city or county.

DELEGATION UTILIZATION
OF THE CENTER FOR CONTINUING EDUCATION
The data contained in Table
both the number of functions and
from Fiscal 1971 to Fiscal 1982.
•
I indicate considerable fluctuation in
the total attendance at these functions
However, prior to the construction of.the
Center for Continuing Education there was little space available for
continuing education and conventions on the campus of the University or
in the city. Also, coinciding with the opening of the Center for
Continuing Education, the Division of Continuing Education began to
actively develop a plan for marketing the programs that would utilize the
new facility.
The first regional meetingl utilizing the Center for Continuing
Education was held on January 15, 1982. A summary of the number of
meetings of this type during the six-month period from January through
June, 1982, is provided in Table II. As shown in that table, there
were eleven such meetings with 916 delegates. The "average length of
stay" for each delegate was 2.68 days. Annualizing the above data yields
an estimate
of 1832 delegates staying a total of 4,910 days during 1982.
At the present
events listed on its
time, the Center for Continuing Education has 72
calendar. The distribution of these events by
date and estimated attendance is given in Table III. Based on this infor-
mation and existing development plans, the Division of Continuing Education
estimates an annual increase of 40 percent
in the number of delegates
attending regional meetings at the Center between 1982 and 1986. These
estimates are shown in Table IV.

It should be noted that the Hilton Hotel, adjacent to the Center for
Continuing Education, also promotes the use of the Center. Moreover, by
September 1, 1982, the Hilton management expects to add a person to their
staff with the specific objective of further enhancing the flow of
delegates utilizing the Center facilities. Consequently, the projections
presented in Table IV would appear to be reasonable and, in fact, minimum
in nature.
DELEGATE EXPENDITURES
There are no studies.currently available that reflect the expenditures
of delegates visiting the Center in Fayetteville. However, for the 1978-1979
period a study conducted by the Little Rock Convention Bureau found the
average daily expenditure per delegate to be $55.62. Moreover, that same
study found delegates attending trade shows spent $78.00 per day, while
exhibitors at those same shows spent $193 per day.
For purposes of this report, it would seem reasonable to assume that
delegates attending meetings in Fayetteville spend amounts similar to those
attending meetings in Little Rock ($55.62). Thus, the data presented in
Table V are premised on that assumption and, in addition, are adjusted
for inflation. Table IV combines the information in Tables IV and V to
develop total spending by delegates attending regional meetings.

sales taxes. Thus, the estimates developed in this report are based on
individual and corporate income taxes and the gross sales tax.
The Act also specifies that an "investment multiplier" of from 2 to
5 may be used. The term "investment multiplier" is not defined in the
Act. Thus, for purposes of this report, it is assumed to mean the number
of times a dollar spent by a delegate will "turn over" in the Arkansas
economy. In its letter to the State Board of Finance dated June 8, 1977,
the City of Little Rock assumed a multiplier of four (4). The estimates
that follow are predicated on that same assumption.
Since the "multiplier" may be said to act on Gross State Product,
rather than income, but the subject taxes are generally related to income,
a transition must be made between Gross State Product and Personal Income.
Data, for 1975, developed by the Industrial Research and Extension Center
indicate the Gross State Product to by $9,745,000,000. For that same

year, the Bureau of Economic Analysis of the U.S. Department of Commerce
estimated Personal Income in Arkansas to be $9,775,000,000. (Subsequent
alterations in base data from which these estimates were derived may have
caused the actual numbers to be modified slightly since the original
work was carried out.) Given the similarity between these two estimates,
it is assumed that, numerically, Gross State Product and Personal Income
in Arkansas are equal
Table VII contains a step-by-step illustration of the estimating
methodology used to develop the estimates of the impact on State

This supplemental report contains revisions to those estimates
previously prepared and made available on July 9, 1982. The changes
shown herein reflect the actual performance of the Center for Continuing
Education to this date and include conversions from a calendar year to a
fiscal year basis of calculation.
For the period January 1982 through June 1982, the Center for
Continuing Education had regional meetings with a total of 916 delegates.
This number coincides with Fiscal 1982. In the period July 1982 through
September 1982, there were 4 regional meetings with 191 delegates and for
the remainder of Fiscal 1983, there are 19 regional meetings scheduled
with an estimated attendance of 3,612. Thus, the estimated number of
regional meetings in Fiscal 1983 is 23, with a total attendance of 3,803.
This is a somewhat larger number than had earlier been estimated for
calendar 1983 but it is justified in that it represents the number and
estimated attendance of regional meetings actually scheduled. Projected
quantities in future years are at a growth rate estimated by the Center
staff rather than for meetings already scheduled.
In an effort to make this addendum consistent with the earlier report,
all tables have been assigned numbers coincident with earlier tables with an
"A" added to differentiate between them.

It is our opinion that, as of February 15, 1983, and as of the date
of this opinion:
1. No recording, registration or filing or re-
recording, re -registration or re -filing of the Indenture or any
indenture supplemental thereto (at this time there is no indenture
supplemental thereto to the best of our knowledge), the Agreement
or any other instrument or document (including, without
limitation, Uniform Commerical Code continuation statements) and
no payment of any mortgage, registration, recording, filing or
other tax or fee or any other action was or is necessary in order to
create, preserve, maintain and protect the assignment, pledge and
lien of the Indenture and the rights of the Trustee and the
Bondholders thereunder or the assignment, pledge and lien created
by the Borrower pursuant to the Agreement.
2. Under existing law no such action, will be necessary
in the future for such purpose, except that Uniform Commercial Code
continuation statements must be filed at five year intervals with
i. rte: 7 ii nt �.
the Circuit Clerk of Washington County, Arkansas and with the
Arkansas Secretary'of State. The Indenture was filed as a Security
Agreement in lieu of financing statement with the Circuit Clerk of
Washington County, Arkansas on March 2, 1982, and with the
Secretary of State of Arkansas on March 5, 1982. Pursuant to
Arkansas Statutes Annotated Section 85-9-403, the original filing
lapses five years after the date of filing unless a continuation
statement is filed within six months prior to the expiration of the
five year period. Upon timely filing of the appropriate
continuation statements, the effectiveness of the original filing
is continued for five years after the last date to which the filing
was effective whereupon the effectiveness lapses unless another
continuation statement is filed prior to such lapse.
3. Uniform Commercial Code continuation statements in
the forms attached will, upon execution by The Bank of New York,
both as Trustee and in its corporate capacity, and filed with the
Circuit' Clerk of Washington County and the Arkansas Secretary of
State, as indicated, within the applicable time period specified in
paragraph 2, be sufficient action to accomplish the purposes
specified in paragraph 1.
This opinion is delivered in accordance with theprovisions of
Section 14 of the Indenture.
As used in this opinion:
"Indent
January 1, 1982,
University Hilton
Sumner & Greener,
Architects, Inc.,
Alan R. Sumner to
of New York in its
ire" means the Trust Indenture dated as of
from the City of Fayetteville, Arkansas;
Partners, Ltd., a Texas limited partnership;
a Texas general partnership; Greener & Sumner
a Texas corporation; Charles W. Greener; and
The Bank of New York, as Trustee and to The Bank
corporate capacity and not as Trustee.
The terms "Agreement", "Trustee", "Bondholders" and "Borrower"
