ms. forbes. the current debt service ratio is 3.32, there is additional room. how high can the ratio go? >> through the chair, we have recently looked at our debt capacity. the executive director and her staff have taken pains to grow our capacity, to the point where we can issue in 2010. we have capacity for about $40 million in new debt and maintain the coverage ratio that mr. rose indicated. this new debt issuance of 15.5 -- $500,000 is interest earning. that does not include issuance costs. $16 million is well within our capacity at this time supervisor kim. supervisor kim: phase 1 funding, part of this is due to a bond that is going to the vote next year? >> it would be going to the port, which is then subject to board approval. phase 2 for the public plaza, that includes the bond. supervisor kim: net $9 million could find a potential water park. even if that bond failed, we would still have an $11 million shortfall. >> yes, that is correct. supervisor kim: you have just mentioned what we would propose to not develop, not construct if we were not able to f

ms. davis and urge a no vote on the amendment. i yield back. >> the gentleman from virginia, mr. forbes, is recognized. >> mr.chairman, i would like to yield to the gentleman from california. >> thank the gentleman from virginia. mr. chairman, this -- it's pretty simple. just because the navy says that they've made a decision doesn't mean that they're right. i'll bring into account the same-sex major decision that the navy's made which they just overturned today because they realized it was the wrong decision. like the decision to close the trap and skeet range was a wrong decision. it was operated under the navy since 1957 until the marine corps took over just a few years ago. the marine corps has now decided that they don't like it there and as all of us know that have bases in our districts or close to, it can change by commander. so if you have a new co coming in, the new co can say, way nt to change this even if your county or local city council has a deal with the old co, the new commanding officer can then change that deal. and that's what's happened in this scenario. you have different cos coming in f
