Bond Counsel Services

A government authority located in Oakland, Michigan, seeks a USA-based vendor to provide offsite bond counsel services related to the issuance of debt instruments. The required scope includes offering legal services for planning, developing proposed debt issues, and handling tax implications for projects financed by agency and drainage district-issued bonds. The selected vendor must participate in meetings, assist with information dissemination, and engage in legal or administrative proceedings to draft and review authorization, sale, issuance, and delivery documents. Additionally, the vendor must supply a schedule of events, advise on procedures, approvals, filings, and cost-saving techniques, prepare necessary agreements such as trust indentures and escrow deposit agreements, and deliver plans for advertising and marketing debt instruments. The buyer requires proposals for the budget. Interested bidders must submit all questions no later than September 16, 2026. Only USA organizations are eligible to apply, and the vendor will perform the work at its own office premises.
