Debt free practices implemented nearly two years ago by the City of Carlsbad appeared on target, according to a city official.

Deputy City Administrator Wendy Austin said the City was proactive in managing debt.

“This includes paying off $21.1 million in debt, which saved taxpayers $2.8 million in interest and refinancing (another) $20.8 million in debt, which will save taxpayers $1.8 million in interest. Ultimately, the City is dedicated to being debt free,” she said.
