John M. Scott Commission

The Bloomington City Council on Monday agreed to refinance some of its general obligation bonds, a move that’s expected to save about $560,000 in interest payments. 

“We’ve done this before,” said City Manager Tim Gleason. “This is a relatively small bond refinance. But you’re going to be shocked at the amount of money we’re going to save."

A Bloomington-based health care trust was able to fund more than half of the agencies that applied for funding in its first ever grant cycle this year.
