What does the EDC/A2 do?
While our primary statutory purpose is to help lower financing costs by issuing tax-exempt revenue bonds, we have also assisted the community in other ways. To date this assistance has included: Referral and ombudsman services to the public. Working cooperatively with the City, other area economic development corporations and similar entities involving matters of common interest.
What is revenue bond financing?
An EDC/A2 bond is issued on behalf of the qualified applicant which is then purchased by the applicant's lender. The proceeds are then re-loaned by the EDC/A2 to the applicant for its project. The bond purchaser (i.e., the lender) will thereafter look to the project itself and the applicant for repayment.
Who can use EDC/A2 bond financing?
Current tax law limits EDC/A2 bond financing to manufacturing projects and projects being undertaken by Section 501(c)(3) non-profits.
What are some examples of prior projects that have utilized EDC/A2 revenue bonds?
The EDC/A2 has issued bonds totaling almost one hundred fifty million dollars since its inception. Industrial projects include Climax Molybdenum, Parke Davis, G. T. Products, Ann Arbor Computers and Ervin Industries.
How does the bond financing process work?
As tax-exempt obligations, our bonds are governed by Federal laws and regulations which are quite complex. Interested parties should therefore consult with their financial advisors and bond counsel (i.e., attorneys who specialize in bond finance). Early consultation is strongly encouraged in order for a potential applicant to determine whether EDC/A2 financing will make sense for its intended project.

When a buyer asks ChatGPT which company to use, two different things can happen. ChatGPT can name a company in its answer. Or it can link to a web page as a source. Most advice about AI visibility is about the second one. Our data says the first one is what matters.
