               interpretation  of  subjective  investment  standards,  or  relates  to  investment
               transactions  of  the  City  that  are  not  made  through  accounts  or  other
               contractual arrangements over which the business organization has accepted
               discretionary investment authority.

               The  City  shall  not  enter  into  an  investment  transaction  with  a  pool  or

               Safekeeping

               All marketable securities purchased by the City shall be held in a third party
               safekeeping  institution.    All  securities  will  be  settled  on  a  delivery  versus
               payment basis whereby the third party safekeeping institution will verify the
               correct security was delivered by the seller prior to releasing payment for the
               security.    The  third  party  safekeeping  institution  shall  issue  a  safekeeping
               receipt to the City listing the specific instrument, rate/yield, maturity, CUSIP,
               and other pertinent information.  The securities will be held in an account in
               the City’s name as evidenced by the safekeeping receipts.

               Securities pledged as collateral on deposits which exceed the FDIC coverage
               shall be held by a third party custodial institution designated by the City and
               held  in  an  account  in  the  City’s  name.    A  collateral  agreement  shall  be
               executed between the City and the third party custodian of the collateral.


               Collateralization

               Financial institutions serving  as City  depositories will be  required to sign a
               depository agreement with the City.  The collateralized deposit portion of the
               agreement shall define the City’s rights to the collateral in case of default,
               bankruptcy,  or  closing  and  shall  establish  a  perfected  security  interest  in
               compliance with Federal and State regulations, including:

                     The agreement must be in writing;
                     The  agreement  must  be  executed  by  the  depository  and  the  City
                       contemporaneously with the acquisition of the asset;
                     The  agreement  must  be  approved  by  the  Board  of  Directors  or
                       designated  committee  of  the  depository  and  a  copy  of  the  meeting
                       minutes must be delivered to the City; and
                     The  agreement  must  be  part  of  the  depository’s  “official  record”
