Bond Refunding Yields Significant Savings for San Joaquin Hills Transportation Corridor Agency |
|
The San Joaquin Hills Transportation Corridor Agency (SJHTCA) has executed a refunding of its Series 2014A bonds, resulting in a reduction in debt service payments of $138.7 million, net of all transaction costs. The move will not extend bond maturity dates and further strengthens the Agency’s cash position while creating additional flexibility to pay down other bonds early or invest in key capital projects.
"This transaction is another example of the SJHTCA’s commitment to fiscal stewardship in reducing debt service," said SJHTCA Chair and Mission Viejo Mayor Trish Kelley. "We take our duties of fiscal responsibility very seriously and are pleased to be able to realize such a large savings without extending maturity dates."

ABC Hopes 2022 Row-A-Thon |
ABC Hopes will be reviving the Row-A-Thon events and making its first appearance of 2022 on Saturday, February 19, 2022 at No Limit Personal Training (NLPT) in Placentia, CA.
This February they will be rowing for one of our very own, Sako Yakinian, owner of NLPT. Sako has been on a wild health journey since June. First battling COVID and pneumonia, then on September 3rd he woke up to tingling in his feet…within 3 weeks he had lost full control of the lower half of his body. Through endless amounts of tests, Sako has been diagnosed with a disease called Anti-MOG/MOGAD Disease.
Join us in Rowing for Sako and spreading awareness about this 1 in 1.6million diagnosed disease. The concept of the Row-A-Thon is simple – gather 10 friends or strangers and Row 26.2miles on one row machine for time. Whichever team has the best time, wins!
