               Collateral shall be audited annually be the City's independent auditor and may

               safekeeping bank.

               Arbitrage


               The Tax Reform Act of 1986 places  limitations on the City's yield from
               investing certain tax-exempt bond proceeds, debt service funds and reserve
               funds.  The rebate provisions require that the City compute earnings on
               investments from certain issues of bonds on a periodic basis to determine if
               rebate is required.


               To determine the City's arbitrage position, the City is required to calculate the
               actual yield earned on the investment of the funds and compare it to the yield
               that would have been earned if the funds had been invested at a rate equal
