Episode 114 – Public Infrastructure Financing in Nevada with Scott Shaver and Jake Campos: Part 2

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What developers should prepare before approaching a jurisdiction, including property information, planned improvements, preliminary cost estimates, and development phasing.
• How the application, development or district financing agreement, engineer’s report, and assessment methodology fit into the formation process.
• Why securing 100% property-owner consent makes coordinating mapping, property transfers, and home sales critical to the formation schedule.
• How a district financing agreement governs the use of bond proceeds, and when funding additional eligible improvements may require an amendment.
• How development phases, spending timelines, transaction size, and investor demand influence the size and timing of bond issues.
• How reimbursement agreements can support cost sharing across future development phases, and why future district formation and reimbursement carry risk.
• What bond investors look for in project disclosures, appraisals, absorption analysis, and a developer’s track record.
