Project Description

The Office of Financial Management of the Finance and Administration Cabinet of the
Commonwealth of Kentucky (the Cabinet), on behalf of the Authority, is requesting proposals from FY26-27 prequalified firms to provide bond counsel services to the Authority for the issuance of bonds during the period beginning July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026.  OFM and the Authority will have the option to extend the contracts of the bond counsel firm, under the same terms and conditions, for an additional twelve (12) month period.

The firm engaged to provide bond counsel services to the Authority will be working with OFM, KPTIA, KPTIA Counsel, Public Financial Management (PFM) as KPTIA’s external financial advisor, and the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC). A senior managing underwriting firm will also be selected in a similar process as bond counsel. Collectively, OFM, KYTC, KPTIA, PFM, and the selected senior managing underwriter firm may be referred to in the RFP as the “Finance Team”.

In Attachment B Fee proposal, it is still showing a minimum fee of $15,000, but in Section VI of the RFP it was increased to $20,000. Which amount should we use as the minimum fee in our response?
