| Oakland's Children's
Hospital |
| The Children's Hospital Medical Center of Northern California provides a full range of pediatric acute and intensive care services to residents in the East Bay and throughout Northern California. |
| When Hospital recently expanded its facilities and services, the Authority helped with $65 million in tax-exempt financing. This capital project replaced an existing helipad, expanded pediatric intensive care, laboratory departments, and operating rooms, and included installation of a new emergency backup generator, renovation of its emergency room and patient rooms, and helped create a bone marrow transplant program. |

Children's also used these bonds to acquire a nearby building-the Martin Luther King Plaza-to house research activities. Authority funding helped the organization renovate this former public school into research facilities. In a separate transaction, the Authority issued $30 million for Children's in connection with a major seismic retrofit project. |
