Strategic Plan Integration
The City’s mission includes a City Government that is Financially Sound, and the Council’s goal for achieving a Financially Sound City Government is furthered by ensuring compliance with federal guidelines governing capital assets using federal funds as the City works to maximize the leveraging of local funds with various state, federal and other grants.
Alternatives
In addition to the recommended action, the Council could elect to reject the administrative policy and reject updating the Capital Asset Policy. This is not recommended as the policy will help implement more streamlined asset management, increase audit reporting accuracy, and allow for more centralized documentation of the City’s capital assets.
Coordination and Review
Not applicable
Budget/Cost Impact
There is no immediate budget impact by adopting the Capital Asset Policy; however, not maintaining a policy may impact financial reporting and future receipt or award of federal grant monies which could have a significant impact on the City’s budget.

ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY NUMBER: IV-C-04
DATE: August 3, 2022June

SUBJECT: CAPITAL ASSET POLICY AUTHORITY: City Council
PURPOSE
To establish procedures to ensure the proper safeguarding, handling, and reporting of City-wide capital assets.
POLICY
Administration of this policy shall be the responsibility of the Finance Department. Each City Department Head is responsible for ensuring that proper purchasing guidelines are followed, and to ensure that fixed assets are adequately controlled and used for appropriate City purposes.
Definitions
Capital Assets: Major assets that are used in operations and have initial useful lives extending beyond a single reporting period. Capital assets with an original unit cost of greater than or equal to the City’s capitalization threshold (see table below), including ancillary costs, and with a useful life of five years or more will be capitalized for financial accounting purposes.
Infrastructure Assets: Long-lived capital assets that normally are stationary in nature and can be preserved to a significantly greater number of years than most capital assets. They include, among other things, roads, bridges, water and sewer systems, and drainage systems.
Infrastructure assets with an original unit cost of greater than or equal to the City’s capitalization threshold of $100,000, including ancillary costs, and with a useful life of twenty-five years or more will be capitalized for financial accounting purposes.
Pooled/Bulk Assets: Certain items such as tools, furniture, equipment and computers are generally below the capitalization threshold individually but are typically purchased or held in large quantities which may represent significant financial impact overall. In these cases, the City shall create a pool of assets as opposed to individual assets. Pooled asset purchases of $25,000 or more of the same item (e.g., laptops or office chairs) or items used for the same purpose (e.g., various exercise equipment for a gym) may be capitalized as a single asset.
Asset’s Historical Cost for Capitalization
Land: The purchase price and cost of preparing land for its intended use. Examples of ancillary costs include search costs, attorney’s fees, liens assumed, taxes assumed, grading costs, and land improvements with an indefinite life.
Building: The purchase price, contract price, or job order costs, and any other expenditure necessary to put a building or structure into its intended state of operation. Additional expenditures may include professional fees, costs of fixed fixtures (non-detachable) to the floor, ceilings and walls, insurance premiums, and related costs incurred during the period of construction.
Structure and Improvement: Permanent (i.e., non-detachable) improvements that add value to land (e.g., fences, retaining walls, easements, road access). This account also is used for leasehold improvements.

2 Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment: The total purchase price less any applicable discounts and any ancillary payments required to place the asset in its intended state of operation.
Computer Equipment and Software: The total purchase price less any applicable discounts and any ancillary payments required to place the asset in its intended state of operation. Systems (i.e., servers) constructed that in the aggregate exceed the capitalization threshold will not be capitalized.
Vehicles: The total purchase price less any applicable discounts and ancillary payments required to place the asset in its intended state of operation.
Infrastructure: The purchase price, contract price, or project costs, and any other expenditures necessary to put the asset into its intended state of operation. Additional expenditures may include professional fees, damage claims, insurance premiums, and related costs incurred during the period of construction. Examples include roads, gutters, bridges, traffic signals, water and sewer systems, drainage systems, monuments, electric, and gas lines.
Construction in Progress: The total amount expended to date on uncompleted buildings, pipelines, or other capital project under construction. When the project is completed, the cumulative costs are then transferred to the appropriate capital asset accounts.

PROCEDURE
1. Acquisition: The City shall follow all procurement procedures in accordance with the City’s Purchasing Policy and Procurement Procedures Manual. In addition, all procurement must follow Federal guidelines as outlined in the Uniform Guidance 2 CFR part 200.318 through 200.326.
2. Inventory Management: The City shall adhere to the requirements of 2 CFR 200.313, as it applies to the equipment management requirements related to all federal grants awarded to this agency. The purpose of the physical inventory is to verify the existence and location of fixed assets, and to validate the accuracy of the City’s accounting records. Each Department shall conduct and manage an annual inventory, as well as notify the Finance Department of assets purchased by the City or acquired with federal funding. Inventory tags shall be issued by the Finance Department after acquisition for tracking purposes. At minimum, the following must be provided/recorded:
Description of the property
Serial number/ID number of each item
Source of funding

Total cost
Percentage of Federal participation in the project costs for the federal award under which the property was acquired including the location, use, and condition of the property at time of acquisition (if applicable)
In addition,
For any equipment distributed to a single individual (i.e., turnout gear), it shall be the individual’s responsibility to advise their supervisor of any loss, damage, or theft of the property. In the event of any loss, damage, or theft the supervisor will investigate and document all results found.
All equipment must be thoroughly inspected monthly for upkeep, and periodically undergo necessary maintenance to ensure safety and longevity of equipment. The supervisor shall report all equipment maintenance needs to the Department Head.
3. Disposal: It shall be the City’s policy to receive as much value as possible in exchange for the property to be disposed. In determining “value”, all costs of the exchange shall be considered, including demolition, delivery costs, auction fees, and sales tax.
In general, disposal of tangible capital assets may occur by auction/sale, trade-in, donation, destruction, loss, or abandonment. It’s recommended that departments seek preferred forms of disposition such as interdepartmental transfer within the City or donation to another agency in need. However, special circumstances may be considered for certain assets and police property listed below.
a. Office Furniture: Before offering property for sale, other City departments and community-based organizations may be offered an opportunity to select what they want at no cost to them.
b. City Vehicles: The City’s preferred method for disposal of vehicles is through competitive bid or auction. However, on occasion and in accordance with the following guidelines, vehicles may be sold to another public agency, business, or company:
i. The vehicle was scheduled for replacement.
ii. A public agency, business or company has expressed interest in purchasing it. iii. The purchase price for the vehicle is based on Blue Book value or other comparative data approved by the Director of Finance.
iv. Vehicles shall not be sold to a private individual or company owned by a City employee or in which a City employee has financial interest. v. All sales shall be “as is.”
vi. The City Manager shall approve all sales in advance of the sale and upon review of relevant information.
c. Police Property: There are several state laws pertaining to the disposition of certain personal property in possession of the police department by way of seizure, evidence, found property, etc. City Council has adopted Ordinance 93-9 relating to disposition of unclaimed property by the police. Accordingly, the Chief of Police shall review the property with the City Attorney for additional guidance. 571

4 Once an appropriate form of disposition is identified, departments will be responsible for completing the Capital Asset Disposal Request Form signed by the appropriate department head and submitting to the Finance Department for approval. Upon disposal, the department must inform the Finance Department of the result of the disposal and provide the required disposal information to finalize the form.
Under no circumstances shall City employees be allowed personal possession of a capital asset after disposal.
4. Depreciation: The City will utilize the straight-line method for depreciation. Depreciation will be calculated on an annual basis. New additions do not place the asset into service until the beginning of the fiscal year following acquisition for purposes of calculating depreciation. No depreciation will be posted for the initial portion of the year in which the asset was acquired.

In addition,
For any equipment distributed to a single individual (i.e., turnout gear), it shall be the individual’s responsibility to advise their supervisor of any loss, damage, or theft of the property. In the event of any loss, damage, or theft the supervisor will investigate and document all results found.
All equipment must be thoroughly inspected monthly for upkeep, and periodically undergo necessary maintenance to ensure safety and longevity of equipment. The supervisor shall report all equipment maintenance needs to the Department Head.
3. Disposal: It shall be the City’s policy to receive as much value as possible in exchange for the property to be disposed. In determining “value”, all costs of the exchange shall be considered, including demolition, delivery costs, auction fees, and sales tax.
In general, disposal of tangible capital assets may occur by auction/sale, trade-in, donation, destruction, loss, or abandonment. It’s recommended that departments seek preferred forms of disposition such as interdepartmental transfer within the City or donation to another agency in need. However, special circumstances may be considered for certain assets and police property listed below.
a. Office Furniture: Before offering property for sale, other City departments and community-based organizations may be offered an opportunity to select what they want at no cost to them.
b. City Vehicles: The City’s preferred method for disposal of vehicles is through competitive bid or auction. However, on occasion and in accordance with the following guidelines, vehicles may be sold to another public agency, business, or company:
i. The vehicle was scheduled for replacement.
ii. A public agency, business or company has expressed interest in purchasing it. iii. The purchase price for the vehicle is based on Blue Book value or other comparative data approved by the Director of Finance.
iv. Vehicles shall not be sold to a private individual or company owned by a City employee or in which a City employee has financial interest. v. All sales shall be “as is.”
vi. The Finance Director or designee shall approve all sales in advance of the sale and upon review of relevant information.
c. Police Property: There are several state laws pertaining to the disposition of certain personal property in possession of the police department by way of seizure, evidence, found property, etc. City Council has adopted Ordinance 93-9 relating to disposition of unclaimed property by the police. Accordingly, the Chief of Police shall review the property with the City Attorney for additional guidance.
Once an appropriate form of disposition is identified, departments will be responsible for completing the Capital Asset Disposal Request Form signed by the appropriate department 585

Under no circumstances shall City employees be allowed personal possession of a capital asset after disposal.
4. Depreciation: The City will utilize the straight-line method for depreciation. Depreciation will be calculated on an annual basis. New additions do not place the asset into service until the beginning of the fiscal year following acquisition for purposes of calculating depreciation. No depreciation will be posted for the initial portion of the year in which the asset was acquired.

SUBJECT:
CONSIDERATION OF THE TREASURER’S QUARTERLY FINANCIAL REPORT ON THE CITY’S INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO FOR THE PERIOD ENDING MARCH 31, 2024, AND ANNUAL UPDATES TO THE CITY’S INVESTMENT POLICY
INITIATED OR REQUESTED BY: REPORT COORDINATED OR PREPARED BY:

OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this report is to provide the City Council with the treasurer’s quarterly report on the City’s investment portfolio for the quarter ending March 31, 2024 as outlined by the Government Code 53646(b) (1) and to propose updates to the City’s Investment Policy consistent with applicable Government Code.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff respectfully recommends that the City Council receive and file the Treasurer’s Quarterly Financial Report on the City’s investment portfolio for the period ending March 31, 2024, and approve the recommended changes to the City’s investment policy.
BACKGROUND
All local agencies are required to file regular financial reports with their legislative body on the status of their investment portfolio. One of the roles of the City’s Finance Department is to manage investments of the City to ensure that cash flow needs are met while maximizing the investment portfolio.
The funds invested in the City’s treasury are made up of pooled cash from all funds in the City’s General Ledger, including funds held in Trust for other agencies (i.e., the Yolo-Sacramento Port District and West Sacramento Flood Control Agency (WSAFCA) JPA). City staff structure investment maturities in such a way to optimize return while ensuring enough liquid funds are available to meet the operating and capital needs of the City and agencies for which the City acts as Treasurer. The pooled cash also includes impact fee revenues collected from developers and set aside until sufficient funds are available to implement the capital projects for which they were collected, and reserve funds for budget stabilization to ensure fiscal stability of the City and its various services to the community.
It should be noted that the majority of the funds held in the City’s treasury are legally restricted and may only be used for the purposes for which they are collected. Moreover, the funds may only be invested in investments permitted by California Government Code 53600 (Code) et. al, and the City’s investment policy.
Under section 53646(b)(1) of the Government Code, the City Treasurer may prepare and transmit a quarterly financial report to the City Council on the City’s investment portfolio. This report includes:
1. The type of investment, issuer, date of maturity, and par and dollar amount invested on all securities, investments and funds held by the City;
2. A current market value as of the date of the report;
3. A stated compliance of the portfolio to the statement of the City’s adopted investment policy, or manner in which the portfolio is not in compliance; and
4. A statement denoting the ability of the local agency to meet its pool’s expenditure requirements for the next six months, or provide an explanation as to why sufficient money shall or may not be available. Once a year, the statement of investment policy is included in the report.
This quarterly report is produced in a format designed to provide stakeholders a broad profile of the City’s Investment Portfolio. While staff are only transmitting portions of the report with key investment results, a full report with additional detail is available upon request. 587
Quarterly Treasurer’s Report and Annual Update to City’s Investment Policy June 5, 2024
ANALYSIS
This quarterly financial report summarizes the status of pooled treasury investments as of March 31, 2024. For the quarter-end, the City’s treasury investments comprised investments with a book value of $305,567,575 and a market value of $302,350,605. These figures do not include accrued interest of $731,772, which represents interest income the City has earned but not yet received. The Book Value represents the carrying value of the securities and is based on what the City paid for the security, net of amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts to date, whereas Market Value is a constantly changing amount based on how the securities markets value our portfolio. Market values fluctuate with changes in interest rates, and price has an inverse relationship to interest rates.
The City continues to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet its expenditure requirements for the next six months.
Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), which is the California State Treasurer’s investment pool, and California Asset Management Program (CAMP), a local government investment pool, comprised the City’s most liquid funds, and totaled 33.3% of the investment portfolio. These funds are available to the City within one day.
Additionally, the City held $14.2 million in its operating bank account, which fluctuates depending on cash needs to meet City obligations. Those funds not held in the short-duration investment pools or cash are invested in a diversified portfolio of securities as allowed by Code and the City’s investment policy. The portfolio’s duration, sector allocation, and maturity structure are actively managed throughout the quarter. In total, the City’s consolidated investments maintain an average maturity of 335 days.
The City’s portfolio is designed to provide safety and liquidity and continues to meet its goals. City staff and the City’s investment adviser continue to focus on any market dynamics that pose risks to the portfolio.

Quarterly Treasurer’s Report and Annual Update to City’s Investment Policy June 5, 2024
The City’s portfolio of securities (excluding cash, LAIF, and CAMP) maintains its duration in line with its performance-measuring benchmark. Duration is a risk measure indicating the portfolio’s fair value sensitivity to changes in interest rates. As of March 31, 2024, portfolio duration was 2.5 years, which is 96% of its duration target, as measured by the portfolio’s risk and performance-measuring benchmark (which had a duration of 2.6 years). The portfolio continues to maintain strong diversification in sectors, issuers, and maturities.
Economic Outlook
Recent economic data has shown above trend growth fueled by a rise in consumer spending and a continuing healthy US job market. Inflationary trends are subsiding, but core levels remain above the Fed’s target. Given the cumulative effects of restrictive monetary policy and tighter financial conditions, the City’s investment advisor believes the economy will gradually soften and the Fed will loosen monetary policy in 2024.
As expected at the March meeting, the Federal Open Market Committee voted unanimously to leave the Federal Funds rate unchanged at a target range of 5.25 - 5.50%. The March Summary of Economic Projections (SEP) showed stronger real GDP growth outlook and higher core inflation projections for 2024 on resilient labor market and consumer data. The median projection for Federal Funds rate by year-end remained the same at 4.625%, implying three 0.25% cuts. It is likely the FOMC will loosen monetary policy in mid-2024 as inflation and economic growth continue to moderate.
Discussion of Performance
The following is a summary of the City’s holdings by investment type, including each sector’s yield to maturity.
Yield to maturity measures the interest income the City is expected to earn for the coming 12 months, assuming nothing in the portfolio changes. As of March 31, 2024, the weighted average yield to maturity of the City’s consolidated investments was 3.8%:

Interest income continues to be robust (the investment portfolio of securities is expected to earn was also 3.0% for the next year—up from 2.9% last quarter; when LAIF, CAMP and cash are included the expected earnings are 3.8%). Staff also took steps to move funds from LAIF, which was providing yields less than 4.1%, to be managed as a separate liquidity portfolio, apart from the City’s main portfolio. The maturities in this portfolio go no longer than six months. The yield on this component of the City’s investments averages 5.2% and is valued at approximately $60 million. Staff continue to work closely with the City’s investment adviser to diversify the portfolio to improve safety, liquidity, and return. In the current quarter, staff will continue to evaluate liquidity needs and, where possible, continue the investment in longerduration securities.
Investment Policy
Senate Bill 1489 (SB 1489) recently made changes to the sections of California Government Code which governs the investment of public funds. Though none of the changes require the City to update its investment policy, staff believe that the safety and liquidity of the City’s investment portfolio would be enhanced by adopting the recent changes to California Government Code, as well as select best practices:
589
Quarterly Treasurer’s Report and Annual Update to City’s Investment Policy June 5, 2024
Pursuant to Senate Bill 1489, effective January 1, 2023, the Code specified that the purchase of securities with trade settlement periods longer than 45 days is prohibited. City staff is recommending adding this change in the Suitable and Authorized Investments section of the Portfolio. City staff is also recommending adding a change in the Reporting section of the Investment Policy for staff to submit the voluntary quarterly reports to council from 30 days to 45 days after the quarter end.

Strategic Plan Integration
The City’s mission includes a City Government that is Financially Sound, and the Council’s goal for achieving a Financially Sound City Government is furthered by investing the City treasury in a manner that ensures safety and liquidity first, and where possible a yield on “excess cash”. The preparation of regular quarterly reports on the City’s investments supports the mission and this goal.

SUBJECT: INVESTMENT POLICY AUTHORITY: City Council
PURPOSE
This policy sets forth the procedural regulations for investing surplus funds. The intent of the Investment Policy of the City of West Sacramento is to define the parameters within which funds are to be managed.
POLICY
In methods, procedures, and practices, the policy formalizes the framework for the City’s investment activities that must be exercised to ensure effective and judicious fiscal and investment management of the City’s funds. The guidelines are intended to be broad enough to allow the investment officer to function properly within the parameters of responsibility and authority, yet specific enough to safeguard the investment assets.
PROCEDURE
A. SCOPE
This policy applies to the investment of surplus operating and capital funds and proceeds from certain bond issues. It conforms to best practices as outlined by Government Finance Officers Association, Association of Public Treasurers of the United States and Canada, and California Municipal Treasurers’ Association.
1. Pooling of Funds: Except for cash in certain restricted and special funds, the City will consolidate cash balances from all funds to maximize investment earnings. Investment income will be allocated to the various funds based on their respective participation and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
B. GENERAL OBJECTIVES
The primary objectives, in priority order, of investment activities shall be safety, liquidity, and return.
1. Safety: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program.
Investments shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective, the City will diversify its investments by investing funds among a variety of securities with independent returns. The objective will be to mitigate credit risk and market risk, further explained below. 614
Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy
(continued)
2 2. Liquidity: The investment portfolio shall remain sufficiently liquid to meet all operating requirements that may be reasonably anticipated. This is accomplished by structuring the portfolio so that securities mature concurrent with cash needs to meet anticipated demands (static liquidity). Furthermore, since all possible cash demands cannot be anticipated, the portfolio should consist largely of securities with active secondary or resale markets (dynamic liquidity). A portion of the portfolio also may be placed in money market mutual funds or local government investment pools which offer same-day liquidity for short-term funds.
3. Return: The investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a market rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, taking into account the investment risk constraints and liquidity needs. Return on investment is of secondary importance compared to the safety and liquidity objectives described above. The core of investments are limited to relatively low risk securities in anticipation of earning a fair return relative to the risk being assumed.
C. STANDARDS OF CARE
1. Prudence: The standard of prudence to be used by investment officials shall be the “prudent investor” standard (California Government Code section 53600.3) and shall be applied in the context of managing an overall portfolio. Pursuant to this section of Code, all persons authorized to make investment decisions on behalf of the City are trustees and therefore fiduciaries subject to the Prudent Investor Standard:
“…all governing bodies of local agencies or persons authorized to make investment decisions on behalf of those local agencies investing public funds pursuant to this chapter are trustees and therefore fiduciaries subject to the prudent investor standard. When investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling, or managing public funds, a trustee shall act with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the Agency, that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims, to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the Agency. Within the limitations of this section and considering individual investments as part of an overall strategy, investments may be acquired as authorized by law.” Investment officers acting in accordance with written procedures and this investment policy and exercising due diligence shall be relieved of personal responsibility for an individual security’s credit risk or market price changes, provided deviations from expectations are reported in a timely fashion and the liquidity and the sale of securities are carried out in accordance with the terms of this policy.
2. Ethics and Conflicts of Interest: Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with the proper execution and management of the investment program, or that could impair their ability to make impartial decisions. Employees and investment officials shall disclose any material interests in financial institutions with which they conduct business. They shall further disclose any personal financial/ investment positions that could be related to the performance of the investment portfolio. Employees and officers shall refrain from undertaking personal investment transactions with the same individual with whom business is conducted on behalf of the City.
3. Delegation of Authority: Authority to manage the investment program is granted to the Director of Finance/City Treasurer, hereinafter referred to as investment officer, and derived from California Government Code, Sections 41006 and 53600 et seq as well as Ordinance 87-12. Responsibility for the operation of the investment program is hereby 615
Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy
(continued)
3 delegated to the investment officer, who shall act in accordance with established written procedures and internal controls for the operation of the investment program consistent with this investment policy. Procedures should include references to: safekeeping, delivery vs. payment, investment accounting, repurchase agreements, wire transfer agreements, and collateral/depository agreements. No person may engage in an investment transaction except as provided under the terms of this policy and the procedures established by the investment officer. The investment officer shall be responsible for all transactions undertaken and shall establish a system of controls to regulate the activities of subordinate officials. The City may engage the services of one or more external investment advisers, who are registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, to assist in the management of the City’s investment portfolio in a manner consistent with the City’s objectives. External investment advisers may be granted discretion to purchase and sell investment securities in accordance with this investment policy.
The City’s overall investment program shall be designed and managed with a degree of professionalism that is worthy of the public trust. The City recognizes that in a diversified portfolio, occasional measured losses may be inevitable and must be considered within the context of the overall portfolio’s return and the cash flow requirements of the City.
D. SAFEKEEPING AND CUSTODY
1. Authorized Financial Dealers and Institutions: To the extent practicable, the investment officer shall endeavor to complete investment transactions using a competitive bid process whenever possible. The investment officer will determine which financial institutions are authorized to provide investment services to the City. It shall be the City’s policy to purchase securities only from authorized institutions and firms. A list will be maintained of financial institutions authorized to provide investment services. In addition, a list also will be maintained of approved security broker/dealers selected by creditworthiness (e.g., a minimum capital requirement of $10,000,000 and at least five years of operation). These may include “primary” dealers or regional dealers that qualify under Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rule 15C3-1 (uniform net capital rule).
In accordance with Section 53601.5, institutions eligible to transact investment business with the City include:
Primary government dealers as designated by the Federal Reserve Bank and nonprimary government dealers. Nationally or state-chartered banks.
The Federal Reserve Bank.
Direct issuers of securities eligible for purchase.
Selection of financial institutions and broker/dealers authorized to engage in transactions will be at the sole discretion of the City, except where the City utilizes an external investment adviser in which case the City may rely on the adviser for selection.
All financial institutions and broker/dealers who desire to become qualified for investment transactions must supply the following as appropriate:
Audited financial statements.
Proof of National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) certification. Proof of state registration.
616
Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy

4 Completed broker/dealer questionnaire.
Certification of having read and understood and agreeing to comply with the City’s investment policy.
Evidence of adequate insurance coverage.
An annual review of the financial condition and registration of qualified financial institutions and broker/dealers will be conducted by the investment officer.
From time to time, the investment officer may choose to invest in instruments offered by minority and community financial institutions. In such instances, a waiver to the criteria under Paragraph 1 may be granted. All terms and relationships will be fully disclosed prior to purchase and will be reported to the appropriate entity on a consistent basis and should be consistent with state or local law. These types of investment purchases should be approved by the appropriate legislative or governing body in advance.
Public deposits will be made only in qualified public depositories as established by State law. Deposits will be insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or, to the extent the amount exceeds the insured maximum, will be collateralized in accordance with State law.
Selection of broker/dealers used by an external investment adviser retained by the City will be at the sole discretion of the adviser. Where possible, transactions with broker/dealers shall be selected on a competitive basis and their bid or offering prices shall be recorded. If there is no other readily available competitive offering, best efforts will be made to document quotations for comparable or alternative securities. When purchasing original issue instrumentality securities, no competitive offerings will be required as all dealers in the selling group offer those securities at the same original issue price.
2. Internal Controls: The investment officer is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the City are protected from loss, theft or misuse. Specifics for the internal controls shall be documented in an investment procedures manual that shall be reviewed and updated periodically by the Investment Officer. An example of such a procedure would include the requirement that the Director of Finance approve trades transacted by other authorized personnel. The internal control structure shall be designed to provide reasonable assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that (1) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived and (2) the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.
Accordingly, the investment officer shall establish a process for an annual independent review by an external auditor to assure compliance with policies and procedures. The internal controls shall address the following points:
Control of collusion.
Separation of transaction authority from accounting and recordkeeping. Custodial safekeeping.
Avoidance of physical delivery securities.

Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy
(continued)
5 Clear designation of authority to subordinate staff members. Written confirmation of transactions for investments and wire transfers. Dual authorizations of wire transfers.
Staff training.
Development of a wire transfer agreement with the lead bank and third-party custodian.
3. Delivery vs. Payment: All trades where applicable will be executed by delivery vs. payment (DVP) to ensure that securities are deposited in an eligible financial institution prior to the release of funds. Securities will be held by a third-party custodian as evidenced by safekeeping receipts. The only exception to the foregoing shall be depository accounts and securities purchase made with: Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), California Asset Management Program, time certificates of deposit and money market mutual funds, since the purchased securities are not deliverable.
4. Third-Party Safekeeping: Securities will be held by an independent third-party safekeeping institution selected by the City. All securities will be evidenced by safekeeping receipts in the City’s name. The safekeeping institution shall annually provide a copy of its most recent report on internal controls – Service Organization Control Reports (formerly 70, or SAS 70) prepared in accordance with the Statements of Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE) No. 16 (effective June 15, 2011).
E. SUITABLE AND AUTHORIZED INVESTMENTS
1. Investment Types: Investments shall be placed to conform to those allowable under the State of California Government Code section 53600 et seq. Within the investments permitted by the Code, the City seeks to further restrict eligible investments to the guidelines listed below. Consistent with the GFOA Policy Statement and Local Laws Concerning Investment Practices, the following investments will be permitted by this policy and are those defined by state and local law where applicable. If additional types of securities are approved for investment by public funds by state statute, they will not be eligible for investment by the City until this Policy has been amended and the amended version adopted by the City Council. In the event a discrepancy is found between this policy and the Code, the more restrictive parameters will take precedence. Percentage holding limits and minimum credit quality requirements listed in this section apply at the time the security is purchased.
Any investment currently held at the time the policy is adopted which does not meet the new policy guidelines can be held until maturity and shall be exempt from the current policy. At the time of the investment’s maturity or liquidation, such funds shall be reinvested only as provided in the current policy.
An appropriate risk level shall be maintained by primarily purchasing securities that are of high quality, liquid, and marketable. The portfolio shall be diversified by security type and institution to avoid incurring unreasonable and avoidable risks regarding specific security types or individual issuers.

Investment Policy
(continued)
11 A description of eligible investment securities, and a written statement of investment policy and objectives.
A description of interest calculations and how it is distributed, and how gains and losses are treated.

Certificates of Deposit (CDs). The City shall require any commercial bank or savings and loan association to deposit eligible securities with an agency of a depository approved by the State Banking Department to secure any uninsured portion of a Non-Negotiable Certificate of Deposit. The value of eligible securities as defined pursuant to California Government Code, Section 53651, pledged against a Certificate of Deposit shall be equal to 150% of the face value of the CD if the securities are classified as mortgages and 110% of the face value of the CD for all other classes of security.

F. INVESTMENT PARAMETERS
1. Mitigating Credit Risk in the Portfolio: Credit risk is the risk that a security or a portfolio will lose some or all its value due to a real or perceived change in the ability of the issuer to repay its debt. The City will mitigate credit risk by adopting the following strategies:
624
Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy
(continued)
12 The diversification requirements included in the “Suitable and Authorized Investments” section of this policy are designed to mitigate credit risk in the portfolio. No more than 5% of the total portfolio may be deposited with or invested in securities issued by any single issuer unless otherwise specified in this policy. The City may elect to sell a security prior to its maturity and record a capital gain or loss in order to manage the quality, liquidity or yield of the portfolio in response to market conditions or City’s risk preferences.
If the credit ratings of any security owned by the City are downgraded to a level below the quality required by this investment policy, making the security ineligible for additional purchases, the following steps will be taken:
If a security is downgraded, the investment officer will use discretion in determining whether to sell or hold the security based on its current maturity, the economic outlook for the issuer, and other relevant factors. If employing an investment manager, any actions taken related to the downgrade by the investment manager will be communicated to the investment officer in a timely manner. If a decision is made to retain a downgraded security in the portfolio, its presence in the portfolio will be monitored and reported monthly to the City Council.
2. Mitigating Market Risk in the Portfolio: Market risk is the risk that the portfolio value will fluctuate due to changes in the general level of interest rates. The City recognizes that, over time, longer-term portfolios have the potential to achieve higher returns. Likewise, longer-term portfolios have higher volatility of return. The City will mitigate market risk by providing adequate liquidity for short-term cash needs, and by making longer-term investments only with funds that are not needed for current cash flow purposes.
The City further recognizes that certain types of securities, including variable rate securities, securities with principal paydowns prior to maturity, and securities with embedded options, will affect the market risk profile of the portfolio differently in different interest rate environments. The City, therefore, adopts the following strategies to control and mitigate its exposure to market risk:
The City will maintain a minimum of six months of budgeted operating expenditures in short term investments to provide sufficient liquidity for expected disbursements. The maximum stated final maturity of individual securities in the portfolio will be five (5) years as measured from the date of trade settlement, except as otherwise stated in this policy.
The duration of the portfolio will generally be approximately equal to the duration (typically, plus or minus 20%) of a Market Benchmark, an index selected by the City based on the City’s investment objectives, constraints and risk tolerances.
3. Maximum Maturities: To the extent possible, the City shall attempt to match its investments with anticipated cash flow requirements. The City will not directly invest in securities maturing more than five years from the date of trade settlement or in accordance 625
Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy
(continued)
13 with state and local statutes and ordinances, unless the City Council has by resolution granted authority to make such an investment either specifically or as part of an investment program approved by the City Council no less than three months prior to the investment.
The City investment officer shall adopt weighted average maturity limitations, consistent with the investment objectives.
Because of inherent difficulties in accurately forecasting cash flow requirements, a portion of the portfolio should be continuously invested in readily available funds such as LGIPs, money market funds, or overnight repurchase agreements to ensure that appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet ongoing obligations.
G. INVESTMENT STRATEGIES:
The investment program shall seek to augment returns consistent with the intent of this policy, identified risk limitations and prudent investment principles. These objectives will be achieved by use of the following strategies:
The source of and purpose for surplus funds determines the goal to be accomplished by the strategy. Bond proceeds, for example, typically have three purposes: reserve funds, project funds, and debt service funds. The goal and corresponding investment strategy is different for each, as follows:
Reserve Funds. The goal is to have these funds available in case of default while minimizing negative arbitrage. The strategy is to call for competitive bids for long-term investment agreements with a call provision for default or redemption from AAA-rated limitations.
Project Funds. The goal is to maintain purchasing power. The strategy, assuming a normal yield curve, is to match investment agreement maturities with construction draw schedules. Funds needed within 12 months are currently placed in an AAA-rated mutual fund of U.S. Treasury Securities.
Debt Service Funds. The goal is to maintain liquidity. Generally, funds are placed in a money market mutual fund related investment category.
Surplus funds in the City pool come from a mixed bag of services for a wide variety of purposes. This blend of funds leads to the general investment goal of earning an appropriate yield consistent with the City’s high standards for safety and liquidity.
H. INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE
The investment portfolio shall be designed to attain a market-average rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, taking into account the City’s risk constraints, the cash flow characteristics of the portfolio, and state and local laws, ordinances or resolutions that restrict investments.
The investment officer shall monitor and evaluate the portfolio’s performance relative to the chosen market benchmark(s), which will be included in the investment officer’s quarterly report. The investment officer shall select an appropriate, readily available index to use as a market benchmark.
I. REPORTING

The report shall be provided within 45 days after the end of the quarter. Once a year, the statement of investment policy shall be included in the report.
2. Performance Standards: The investment portfolio will be managed in accordance with the parameters specified within this policy.

A series of appropriate benchmarks shall be established against which portfolio performance shall be compared on a regular basis.
3. Marking to Market: The market value of the portfolio shall be calculated at least monthly and a statement of the market value of the portfolio shall be issued at least monthly. This will ensure that review of the investment portfolio, in terms of value and price volatility, has been performed consistent with the GFOA Recommended Practice on “Mark-to-Market Practices for State and Local Government Investment Portfolios and Investment Pools.” In defining market value, considerations should be given to the GASB Statement 31 pronouncement.
4. Annual Reports: The investment policy shall be reviewed at least annually within 120 days of the end of the fiscal year to ensure its consistency with the overall objectives of preservation of principal, liquidity and return, and its relevance to current law and financial and economic trends. A comprehensive annual report shall be presented in conjunction with the investment policy review. This report shall include comparisons of City’s return to the City’s benchmark return, shall suggest policies and improvements that might enhance the investment program, and shall include an investment plan for the coming year.
5. Annual Audit: Management shall establish an annual process of independent review by the external auditor to assure compliance with internal controls. Such audit will include tests deemed appropriate by the auditor.
J. PORTFOLIO AND POLICY CONSIDERATIONS
1. Portfolio Review: The investment officer shall periodically, but no less than quarterly, review the portfolio to identify investments that do not comply with this investment policy and establish protocols for reporting major and critical incidences of noncompliance to the City Council.
2. Policy Amendments: This policy shall be reviewed on an annual basis within 120 days of the end of the fiscal year to ensure its consistency with the overall objectives of preservation of principal, liquidity and return, and its relevance to current law and financial and economic trends.

These funds are not subject to the same SEC rules applicable to money market mutual funds.
Make Whole Call: A type of call provision on a bond that allows the issuer to pay off the remaining debt early. Unlike a call option, with a make whole call provision, the issuer makes a lump sum payment that equals the net present value (NPV) of future coupon payments that will not be paid because of the call. With this type of call, an investor is compensated, or "made whole." Margin: The difference between the market value of a security and the loan a broker makes using that security as collateral.

Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (NRSRO): A credit rating agency that the Securities and Exchange Commission in the United States uses for regulatory purposes.

In California, the rule is stated as “Investments shall be managed with the care, skill, prudence and diligence, under the circumstances then prevailing, that a prudent person, acting in a like capacity and familiar with such matters, would use in the conduct of an enterprise of like character and with like aims to accomplish similar purposes.”
Repurchase Agreement: Short-term purchases of securities with a simultaneous agreement to sell the securities back at a higher price. From the seller’s point of view, the same transaction is a reverse repurchase agreement.
Safekeeping: A service to bank customers whereby securities are held by the bank in the customer’s name.
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC): The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is an independent federal government agency responsible for protecting investors, maintaining fair and orderly functioning of securities markets and facilitating capital formation. It was created by Congress in 1934 as the first federal regulator of securities markets. The SEC promotes full public disclosure, protects investors against fraudulent and manipulative practices in the market, and monitors corporate takeover actions in the United States.
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rule 15c3-1: An SEC rule setting capital requirements for brokers and dealers. Under Rule 15c3-1, a broker or dealer must have sufficient liquidity in order to cover the most pressing obligations. This is defined as having a certain amount of liquidity as a percentage of the broker/dealer's total obligations. If the percentage falls below a certain point, the broker or dealer may not be allowed to take on new clients and may have restrictions placed on dealings with current client.
Structured Note: A complex, fixed income instrument, which pays interest, based on a formula tied to other interest rates, commodities or indices. Examples include inverse floating rate notes which have coupons that increase when other interest rates are falling, and which fall when other interest rates are rising, and "dual index floaters," which pay interest based on the relationship between two other interest rates - for example, the yield on the ten-year Treasury note minus the Libor rate. Issuers of such notes lock in a reduced cost of borrowing by purchasing interest rate swap agreements.

Treasury Bills: All securities issued with initial maturities of one year or less are issued as discounted instruments and are called Treasury bills. The Treasury currently issues three- and six-month T-bills at regular weekly auctions. It also issues “cash management” bills as needed to smooth out cash flows.
Treasury Bonds: All securities issued with initial maturities greater than ten years are called Treasury bonds. Like Treasury notes, they pay interest semi-annually.
Treasury Notes: All securities issued with initial maturities of two to ten years are called Treasury notes and pay interest semi-annually.
U.S. Treasury Obligations: Securities issued by the U.S. Treasury and backed by the full faith and credit of the United States.

SUBJECT: INVESTMENT POLICY AUTHORITY: City Council
PURPOSE
This policy sets forth the procedural regulations for investing surplus funds. The intent of the Investment Policy of the City of West Sacramento is to define the parameters within which funds are to be managed.
POLICY
In methods, procedures, and practices, the policy formalizes the framework for the City’s investment activities that must be exercised to ensure effective and judicious fiscal and investment management of the City’s funds. The guidelines are intended to be broad enough to allow the investment officer to function properly within the parameters of responsibility and authority, yet specific enough to safeguard the investment assets.
PROCEDURE
A. SCOPE
This policy applies to the investment of surplus operating and capital funds and proceeds from certain bond issues. It conforms to best practices as outlined by Government Finance Officers Association, Association of Public Treasurers of the United States and Canada, and California Municipal Treasurers’ Association.
1. Pooling of Funds: Except for cash in certain restricted and special funds, the City will consolidate cash balances from all funds to maximize investment earnings. Investment income will be allocated to the various funds based on their respective participation and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
B. GENERAL OBJECTIVES
The primary objectives, in priority order, of investment activities shall be safety, liquidity, and return.
1. Safety: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program.
Investments shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective, the City will diversify its investments by investing funds among a variety of securities with independent returns. The objective will be to mitigate credit risk and market risk, further explained below. 633
Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy
(continued)
2 2. Liquidity: The investment portfolio shall remain sufficiently liquid to meet all operating requirements that may be reasonably anticipated. This is accomplished by structuring the portfolio so that securities mature concurrent with cash needs to meet anticipated demands (static liquidity). Furthermore, since all possible cash demands cannot be anticipated, the portfolio should consist largely of securities with active secondary or resale markets (dynamic liquidity). A portion of the portfolio also may be placed in money market mutual funds or local government investment pools which offer same-day liquidity for short-term funds.
3. Return: The investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a market rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, taking into account the investment risk constraints and liquidity needs. Return on investment is of secondary importance compared to the safety and liquidity objectives described above. The core of investments are limited to relatively low risk securities in anticipation of earning a fair return relative to the risk being assumed.
C. STANDARDS OF CARE
1. Prudence: The standard of prudence to be used by investment officials shall be the “prudent investor” standard (California Government Code section 53600.3) and shall be applied in the context of managing an overall portfolio. Pursuant to this section of Code, all persons authorized to make investment decisions on behalf of the City are trustees and therefore fiduciaries subject to the Prudent Investor Standard:
“…all governing bodies of local agencies or persons authorized to make investment decisions on behalf of those local agencies investing public funds pursuant to this chapter are trustees and therefore fiduciaries subject to the prudent investor standard. When investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling, or managing public funds, a trustee shall act with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the Agency, that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims, to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the Agency. Within the limitations of this section and considering individual investments as part of an overall strategy, investments may be acquired as authorized by law.” Investment officers acting in accordance with written procedures and this investment policy and exercising due diligence shall be relieved of personal responsibility for an individual security’s credit risk or market price changes, provided deviations from expectations are reported in a timely fashion and the liquidity and the sale of securities are carried out in accordance with the terms of this policy.
2. Ethics and Conflicts of Interest: Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with the proper execution and management of the investment program, or that could impair their ability to make impartial decisions. Employees and investment officials shall disclose any material interests in financial institutions with which they conduct business. They shall further disclose any personal financial/ investment positions that could be related to the performance of the investment portfolio. Employees and officers shall refrain from undertaking personal investment transactions with the same individual with whom business is conducted on behalf of the City.
3. Delegation of Authority: Authority to manage the investment program is granted to the Director of Finance/City Treasurer, hereinafter referred to as investment officer, and derived from California Government Code, Sections 41006 and 53600 et seq as well as Ordinance 87-12. Responsibility for the operation of the investment program is hereby 634
Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy
(continued)
3 delegated to the investment officer, who shall act in accordance with established written procedures and internal controls for the operation of the investment program consistent with this investment policy. Procedures should include references to: safekeeping, delivery vs. payment, investment accounting, repurchase agreements, wire transfer agreements, and collateral/depository agreements. No person may engage in an investment transaction except as provided under the terms of this policy and the procedures established by the investment officer. The investment officer shall be responsible for all transactions undertaken and shall establish a system of controls to regulate the activities of subordinate officials. The City may engage the services of one or more external investment advisers, who are registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, to assist in the management of the City’s investment portfolio in a manner consistent with the City’s objectives. External investment advisers may be granted discretion to purchase and sell investment securities in accordance with this investment policy.
The City’s overall investment program shall be designed and managed with a degree of professionalism that is worthy of the public trust. The City recognizes that in a diversified portfolio, occasional measured losses may be inevitable and must be considered within the context of the overall portfolio’s return and the cash flow requirements of the City.
D. SAFEKEEPING AND CUSTODY
1. Authorized Financial Dealers and Institutions: To the extent practicable, the investment officer shall endeavor to complete investment transactions using a competitive bid process whenever possible. The investment officer will determine which financial institutions are authorized to provide investment services to the City. It shall be the City’s policy to purchase securities only from authorized institutions and firms. A list will be maintained of financial institutions authorized to provide investment services. In addition, a list also will be maintained of approved security broker/dealers selected by creditworthiness (e.g., a minimum capital requirement of $10,000,000 and at least five years of operation). These may include “primary” dealers or regional dealers that qualify under Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rule 15C3-1 (uniform net capital rule).
In accordance with Section 53601.5, institutions eligible to transact investment business with the City include:
Primary government dealers as designated by the Federal Reserve Bank and nonprimary government dealers. Nationally or state-chartered banks.
The Federal Reserve Bank.
Direct issuers of securities eligible for purchase.
Selection of financial institutions and broker/dealers authorized to engage in transactions will be at the sole discretion of the City, except where the City utilizes an external investment adviser in which case the City may rely on the adviser for selection.
All financial institutions and broker/dealers who desire to become qualified for investment transactions must supply the following as appropriate:
Audited financial statements.
Proof of National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) certification. Proof of state registration.
635
Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy
(continued)
4 Completed broker/dealer questionnaire.
Certification of having read and understood and agreeing to comply with the City’s investment policy.
Evidence of adequate insurance coverage.
An annual review of the financial condition and registration of qualified financial institutions and broker/dealers will be conducted by the investment officer.
From time to time, the investment officer may choose to invest in instruments offered by minority and community financial institutions. In such instances, a waiver to the criteria under Paragraph 1 may be granted. All terms and relationships will be fully disclosed prior to purchase and will be reported to the appropriate entity on a consistent basis and should be consistent with state or local law. These types of investment purchases should be approved by the appropriate legislative or governing body in advance.
Public deposits will be made only in qualified public depositories as established by State law. Deposits will be insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or, to the extent the amount exceeds the insured maximum, will be collateralized in accordance with State law.
Selection of broker/dealers used by an external investment adviser retained by the City will be at the sole discretion of the adviser. Where possible, transactions with broker/dealers shall be selected on a competitive basis and their bid or offering prices shall be recorded. If there is no other readily available competitive offering, best efforts will be made to document quotations for comparable or alternative securities. When purchasing original issue instrumentality securities, no competitive offerings will be required as all dealers in the selling group offer those securities at the same original issue price.
2. Internal Controls: The investment officer is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the City are protected from loss, theft or misuse. Specifics for the internal controls shall be documented in an investment procedures manual that shall be reviewed and updated periodically by the Investment Officer. An example of such a procedure would include the requirement that the Director of Finance approve trades transacted by other authorized personnel. The internal control structure shall be designed to provide reasonable assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that (1) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived and (2) the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.
Accordingly, the investment officer shall establish a process for an annual independent review by an external auditor to assure compliance with policies and procedures. The internal controls shall address the following points:
Control of collusion.
Separation of transaction authority from accounting and recordkeeping. Custodial safekeeping.
Avoidance of physical delivery securities.
636
Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy
(continued)
5 Clear designation of authority to subordinate staff members. Written confirmation of transactions for investments and wire transfers. Dual authorizations of wire transfers.
Staff training.
Development of a wire transfer agreement with the lead bank and third-party custodian.
3. Delivery vs. Payment: All trades where applicable will be executed by delivery vs. payment (DVP) to ensure that securities are deposited in an eligible financial institution prior to the release of funds. Securities will be held by a third-party custodian as evidenced by safekeeping receipts. The only exception to the foregoing shall be depository accounts and securities purchase made with: Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), California Asset Management Program, time certificates of deposit and money market mutual funds, since the purchased securities are not deliverable.
4. Third-Party Safekeeping: Securities will be held by an independent third-party safekeeping institution selected by the City. All securities will be evidenced by safekeeping receipts in the City’s name. The safekeeping institution shall annually provide a copy of its most recent report on internal controls – Service Organization Control Reports (formerly 70, or SAS 70) prepared in accordance with the Statements of Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE) No. 16 (effective June 15, 2011).
E. SUITABLE AND AUTHORIZED INVESTMENTS
1. Investment Types: Investments shall be placed to conform to those allowable under the State of California Government Code section 53600 et seq. Within the investments permitted by the Code, the City seeks to further restrict eligible investments to the guidelines listed below. Consistent with the GFOA Policy Statement and Local Laws Concerning Investment Practices, the following investments will be permitted by this policy and are those defined by state and local law where applicable. If additional types of securities are approved for investment by public funds by state statute, they will not be eligible for investment by the City until this Policy has been amended and the amended version adopted by the City Council. In the event a discrepancy is found between this policy and the Code, the more restrictive parameters will take precedence. Percentage holding limits and minimum credit quality requirements listed in this section apply at the time the security is purchased.
Any investment currently held at the time the policy is adopted which does not meet the new policy guidelines can be held until maturity and shall be exempt from the current policy. At the time of the investment’s maturity or liquidation, such funds shall be reinvested only as provided in the current policy.
An appropriate risk level shall be maintained by primarily purchasing securities that are of high quality, liquid, and marketable. The portfolio shall be diversified by security type and institution to avoid incurring unreasonable and avoidable risks regarding specific security types or individual issuers.
Authorized securities include:

Repurchase Agreements. The City requires that Repurchase Agreements be collateralized only by securities authorized in accordance with California Government Code:
The securities which collateralize the repurchase agreement shall be priced at Market Value, including any Accrued Interest plus a margin. The Market Value of the securities that underlie a repurchase agreement shall be valued at 102% or greater of the funds borrowed against those securities.
Financial institutions shall mark the value of the collateral to market at least monthly and increase or decrease the collateral to satisfy the ratio requirement described above.
The City shall receive monthly statements of collateral.
F. INVESTMENT PARAMETERS
1. Mitigating Credit Risk in the Portfolio: Credit risk is the risk that a security or a portfolio will lose some or all its value due to a real or perceived change in the ability of the issuer to repay its debt. The City will mitigate credit risk by adopting the following strategies:
643
Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy
(continued)
12 The diversification requirements included in the “Suitable and Authorized Investments” section of this policy are designed to mitigate credit risk in the portfolio. No more than 5% of the total portfolio may be deposited with or invested in securities issued by any single issuer unless otherwise specified in this policy. The City may elect to sell a security prior to its maturity and record a capital gain or loss in order to manage the quality, liquidity or yield of the portfolio in response to market conditions or City’s risk preferences.
If the credit ratings of any security owned by the City are downgraded to a level below the quality required by this investment policy, making the security ineligible for additional purchases, the following steps will be taken:
If a security is downgraded, the investment officer will use discretion in determining whether to sell or hold the security based on its current maturity, the economic outlook for the issuer, and other relevant factors. If employing an investment manager, any actions taken related to the downgrade by the investment manager will be communicated to the investment officer in a timely manner. If a decision is made to retain a downgraded security in the portfolio, its presence in the portfolio will be monitored and reported monthly to the City Council.
2. Mitigating Market Risk in the Portfolio: Market risk is the risk that the portfolio value will fluctuate due to changes in the general level of interest rates. The City recognizes that, over time, longer-term portfolios have the potential to achieve higher returns. Likewise, longer-term portfolios have higher volatility of return. The City will mitigate market risk by providing adequate liquidity for short-term cash needs, and by making longer-term investments only with funds that are not needed for current cash flow purposes.
The City further recognizes that certain types of securities, including variable rate securities, securities with principal paydowns prior to maturity, and securities with embedded options, will affect the market risk profile of the portfolio differently in different interest rate environments. The City, therefore, adopts the following strategies to control and mitigate its exposure to market risk:
The City will maintain a minimum of six months of budgeted operating expenditures in short term investments to provide sufficient liquidity for expected disbursements. The maximum stated final maturity of individual securities in the portfolio will be five (5) years as measured from the date of trade settlement, except as otherwise stated in this policy.
The duration of the portfolio will generally be approximately equal to the duration (typically, plus or minus 20%) of a Market Benchmark, an index selected by the City based on the City’s investment objectives, constraints and risk tolerances.
3. Maximum Maturities: To the extent possible, the City shall attempt to match its investments with anticipated cash flow requirements. The City will not directly invest in securities maturing more than five years from the date of trade settlement or in accordance 644
Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy
(continued)
13 with state and local statutes and ordinances, unless the City Council has by resolution granted authority to make such an investment either specifically or as part of an investment program approved by the City Council no less than three months prior to the investment.
The City investment officer shall adopt weighted average maturity limitations, consistent with the investment objectives.
Because of inherent difficulties in accurately forecasting cash flow requirements, a portion of the portfolio should be continuously invested in readily available funds such as LGIPs, money market funds, or overnight repurchase agreements to ensure that appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet ongoing obligations.
G. INVESTMENT STRATEGIES:
The investment program shall seek to augment returns consistent with the intent of this policy, identified risk limitations and prudent investment principles. These objectives will be achieved by use of the following strategies:
The source of and purpose for surplus funds determines the goal to be accomplished by the strategy. Bond proceeds, for example, typically have three purposes: reserve funds, project funds, and debt service funds. The goal and corresponding investment strategy is different for each, as follows:
Reserve Funds. The goal is to have these funds available in case of default while minimizing negative arbitrage. The strategy is to call for competitive bids for long-term investment agreements with a call provision for default or redemption from AAA-rated limitations.
Project Funds. The goal is to maintain purchasing power. The strategy, assuming a normal yield curve, is to match investment agreement maturities with construction draw schedules. Funds needed within 12 months are currently placed in an AAA-rated mutual fund of U.S. Treasury Securities.
Debt Service Funds. The goal is to maintain liquidity. Generally, funds are placed in a money market mutual fund related investment category.
Surplus funds in the City pool come from a mixed bag of services for a wide variety of purposes. This blend of funds leads to the general investment goal of earning an appropriate yield consistent with the City’s high standards for safety and liquidity.
H. INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE
The investment portfolio shall be designed to attain a market-average rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, taking into account the City’s risk constraints, the cash flow characteristics of the portfolio, and state and local laws, ordinances or resolutions that restrict investments.
The investment officer shall monitor and evaluate the portfolio’s performance relative to the chosen market benchmark(s), which will be included in the investment officer’s quarterly report. The investment officer shall select an appropriate, readily available index to use as a market benchmark.
I. REPORTING
645
Administrative Policy IV-C-2
Investment Policy
(continued)
14 1. Methods: The investment officer shall prepare an investment report at least quarterly, including a management summary that provides an analysis of the status of the current investment portfolio and the individual transactions executed over the last quarter. This report shall include the type of investment, issuer, date of maturity, and par and dollar amount invested on all securities, investments and moneys held by the City. The report shall also include a current market value as of the date of the report. It shall state compliance of the portfolio to the statement of investment policy or manner in which the portfolio is not in compliance. Finally, the report shall include a statement denoting the ability of the local agency to meet its pool’s expenditure requirements for the next six months or provide an explanation as to why sufficient money shall, or may, not be available. The report shall be provided within 45 days after the end of the quarter. Once a year, the statement of investment policy shall be included in the report.
2. Performance Standards: The investment portfolio will be managed in accordance with the parameters specified within this policy. The portfolio should obtain a market average rate of return during a market/economic environment of stable interest rates. A series of appropriate benchmarks shall be established against which portfolio performance shall be compared on a regular basis.
3. Marking to Market: The market value of the portfolio shall be calculated at least monthly and a statement of the market value of the portfolio shall be issued at least monthly. This will ensure that review of the investment portfolio, in terms of value and price volatility, has been performed consistent with the GFOA Recommended Practice on “Mark-to-Market Practices for State and Local Government Investment Portfolios and Investment Pools.” In defining market value, considerations should be given to the GASB Statement 31 pronouncement.
4. Annual Reports: The investment policy shall be reviewed at least annually within 120 days of the end of the fiscal year to ensure its consistency with the overall objectives of preservation of principal, liquidity and return, and its relevance to current law and financial and economic trends. A comprehensive annual report shall be presented in conjunction with the investment policy review. This report shall include comparisons of City’s return to the City’s benchmark return, shall suggest policies and improvements that might enhance the investment program, and shall include an investment plan for the coming year.
5. Annual Audit: Management shall establish an annual process of independent review by the external auditor to assure compliance with internal controls. Such audit will include tests deemed appropriate by the auditor.
J. PORTFOLIO AND POLICY CONSIDERATIONS
1. Portfolio Review: The investment officer shall periodically, but no less than quarterly, review the portfolio to identify investments that do not comply with this investment policy and establish protocols for reporting major and critical incidences of noncompliance to the City Council.
2. Policy Amendments: This policy shall be reviewed on an annual basis within 120 days of the end of the fiscal year to ensure its consistency with the overall objectives of preservation of principal, liquidity and return, and its relevance to current law and financial and economic trends. Any recommended modifications or changes shall be presented by the investment officer to the City Council for their consideration and adoption. 646

FNMA: Like FHLB and FreddieMac, the Federal National Mortgage Association was established to provide credit and liquidity in the housing market. FNMA, also known as “FannieMae,” issues discount notes, bonds and mortgage pass-through securities.
GNMA: The Government National Mortgage Association, known as “GinnieMae,” issues mortgage pass-through securities, which are guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the US Government.
PEFCO: The Private Export Funding Corporation assists exporters. Obligations of PEFCO are not guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the US government.
TVA: The Tennessee Valley Authority provides flood control and power and promotes development in portions of the Tennessee, Ohio, and Mississippi River valleys. TVA currently issues discount notes and bonds.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 5, 2024 ITEM #12
SUBJECT:
CONSIDERATION AND AWARD OF A CONTRACT TO CAPRA ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, CORP., FOR GOAT GRAZING VEGETATION MANAGEMENT SERVICES IN
OPEN SPACE AREAS, PARK SITES, AND PORT PROPERTIES
INITIATED OR REQUESTED BY: REPORT COORDINATED OR PREPARED BY:
[ ] Council [X] Staff
[ ] Other
Chris Surawski, Project Manager
Parks & Recreation Department
ATTACHMENT [X] Yes [ ] No [ ] Information [ ] Direction [X] Action
OBJECTIVE
This report seeks City Council’s approval of a contract with Capra Environmental Services, Corp., for goat grazing vegetation management services in open space areas, park sites, and Port properties.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff respectfully recommends that the City Council:
1) Find that the Goat Grazing Vegetation Management Services is exempt from CEQA analysis under the Class 1 Categorical Exemption, under California Code of Regulations, Section 15301 and direct staff to file a Notice of Exemption (Attachment 1);
2) Award a professional services contract to Capra Environmental Services, Corp., (Attachment 2) in an amount not to exceed $318,558.60 for the Goat Grazing Vegetation Management Services; 3) Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute a contract with Capra Environmental Services, Corp., in the amount of $318,558.60; which includes $265,465.50 for the contract amount and $53,092 in contingency.
4) Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute non-substantive changes or modifications to the contract with Capra Environmental Services, Corp., with approval from the City Attorney; and 5) Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute amendments to extend the term of the contract, if necessary.
BACKGROUND
Vegetation management in the City is critical for preventing fires, maintaining emergency access, and discouraging illegal dumping and homeless activities. Goat grazing is an environmentally friendly, cost-efficient approach to vegetation management, especially on heavily treed properties with uneven terrain. Areas in the City such as the riverfront, canals, levees, and other open spaces are difficult to access and cannot accommodate typical maintenance equipment. Maintenance crews are required to use hand-held trimmers for clearing, which increases labor costs, time, and risk for injury due to the uneven terrain. Goats can clear vegetation quickly, safely and more efficiently than staff. and over the past several years have become a beloved part of the West Sacramento community.
ANALYSIS
In March, City staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Goat Grazing Vegetation Management Services.
The Parks and Recreation Department received proposals from four vegetation management companies that offer goat grazing options. Staff requested estimates for multiple areas and frequencies of service that total 167 acres. The term of the contract is from July 2024 through June 2027. The proposals were reviewed by staff to determine the most qualified contractor to provide vegetation management services. The results are summarized below:
Contractor Contractor Score Contractor Cost
Capra Environmental Services, Corp. 86.75 $265,465.50
Leland F. Hazeltine 75.13 $203,743.50
Blue Tent Farms LLC 66.88 $349,590.72
652

June 5, 2024
Goats R Us 64.5 $628,699.50
City staff determined that Capra Environmental Services, Corp., is the most qualified contractor to provide vegetation management services based on responsiveness to the RFP, experience with public sector grazing and a track record of having professional, technical and financial resources to complete the work. The schedule of fees was opened after the evaluation process was complete. Capra Environmental Services, Corp., was determined to be the most cost-efficient contractor to provide vegetation management services in the contract area.
A list of government agencies provided by the contractor to show experience providing like service were contacted. Agencies confirmed Capra Environmental Services, Corp., ability to provide goat grazing vegetation service.
Environmental Considerations
The project is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, the Class 1 Categorical Exemption. The project involves the maintenance and/or minor alteration of existing facilities and/or topographical features and negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing. A Notice of Exemption has been prepared and is included as Attachment 1.
Commission Recommendation
No Commission recommendation required.
Strategic Plan Integration
The Goat Grazing Vegetation Management Services aligns the City Council’s Strategic Principal for Parks & Open Space: Parks & Open Space Master Plan: Implementation.
Alternatives
The City Council may decide to:
1) Approve the recommendation as presented in this Report; 2) Reject all bids based on cost; or
3) Direct staff to rebid.
Alternative 1 is recommended as alternatives 2 or 3 will delay vegetation management work being completed within the timeframe needed to prevent additional overgrowth. This may create fire hazards and encourage unauthorized uses of the City’s open space areas.
Coordination and Review
This report was prepared by the Parks & Recreation Department in coordination with and review by the Finance Department.
Budget/Cost Impact
Vegetation management services, including weed abatement, occur throughout the City and are funded through various City department and Port operating budgets, as well as Measure E funds identified for public open space clean-up and enforcement activities to reduce the community impacts of homelessness. Funding for the Contract with Capra Environmental Services, Corp., for goat grazing vegetation management services has been incorporated into the City’s and Port’s FY 24/25 operating budgets which were approved by the City Council with the biennial operations and maintenance budget for the Fiscal Years 2023-24 and 2024-25.
The following is a breakdown of funding for vegetation management services, to include on-call work as needed, for FY 24/25, 25/26, and 26/27:

Mr. Surawski,
Thank you for allowing us to propose grazing services for the City of West Sacramento. We value your business and want to begin grazing for the City of West Sacramento not only this year, but each year thereafter.
We have the knowledge and experience to do the job. We have the resources to get the job done and we appreciate the trust you place in us. Our herd includes 3,000 sheep and 7,000 goats. We anticipate deploying a sizable group of goats to complete your grazing in the timeframe required.
Our commitment to complete the job professionally and efficiently is our highest priority. We look forward to beginning our relationship and grazing for the City of West Sacramento this year.
Please contact me with any questions. Thanks again!
Sincerely,

Additional Valuable Information
IIPP and HIPP Program
Safety, security, and regulatory compliance are the highest priorities for Capra. As required by the State of California, Capra has an Injury and Illness Prevention Program as well as a Heat Illness Prevention Program. Capra conducts quarterly safety meetings, pre-grazing hazard assessments for each area grazed, monthly safety checklist reports, and ongoing communication with the field staff. All reports and policies are available for review upon request.
Animal Health
Capra prides itself on having healthy animals that are efficient grazers and look healthy in the public venue. For that reason, we spare no expense on having an excellent herd health and preventative medicine program for our grazing herd and our working team of canines. We have a Registered Veterinary Technician on staff 24/7 to ensure we are tending to the highest level of care to our four-legged staff.
Equipment
Capra also prides itself on having newer, cleaner, well-kept equipment. We own a semi-truck and livestock trailer large enough to hold 400 animals in one load, eliminating the need for outside carriers to haul our animals. In addition to our semi, we have three other smaller trailers to haul 150 animals each per load.

SUBJECT:
CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION 24-63 APPROPRIATING $250,000 OF PARK
IMPACT FEE FUNDS AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A PURCHASE AND SALES AGREEMENT FOR 2286 DEL MONTE STREET
INITIATED OR REQUESTED BY: REPORT COORDINATED OR PREPARED BY:

Kate Smith, Director
Parks and Recreation Department
ATTACHMENT [ X ] Yes [ ] No [ ] Information [ ] Direction [ X ] Action
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this report is to facilitate City Council consideration of Resolution 24-63 appropriating $250,000 in Park Impact Fee Funds and authorizing the City Manager to acquire property 2286 Del Monte Street for future park access.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff respectfully recommends that the City Council:
1) Find that the acquisition of property located at 2286 Del Monte Street is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) analysis under the Class 1 (Existing Facilities), Class 3 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures), and Class 32 (In-Fill Development) Categorical Exemptions, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3, Article 19, Sections 15301, 15303 and 15332; 2) Adopt Resolution 24-63 (Attachment 1) establishing a budget appropriation of $250,000 from Park Impact Fee Funds to cover the 10% down price of a $2.4 million property acquisition and fees for due diligence costs; and
3) Authorize the City Manager or their designee to execute the Purchase and Sale Agreement (PSA) in substantially the form attached to this report, with such changes or amendments as shall be approved by the City Attorney.
BACKGROUND
The 2019 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan includes an assessment of the City’s current and future park sites. The recommendation for the City, which aligns with national and state standards, is 5 acres of developed park land per 1,000 residents. In 2019, the City of West Sacramento averaged 3.68 acres of developed park land per 1,000 residents noting a deficiency of 72 acres of developed park land. The Master Plan outlined sustainable (repair existing), expanded service (upgrade and renovate) and visionary (new/major upgrade) projects of park land to meet the General Plan goal of 5 acres of developed park land per 1,000 residents.
Within the Visionary Project section of the Master Plan, under New Park Development (Chapter 7-7), it identifies a site titled “Charter School” which is referring to the old River City High School located at 1100 Clarendon Street, West Sacramento 95691. This was the original River City High School in the City and operated from 1996 – December 18, 2008 until a new high school was opened in 2009 located at 1 Raider Lane 95691.
The property at 1100 Clarendon Street includes approximately 26.5 acres of green space and park land with existing outdoor tennis courts, outdoor basketball courts, indoor gymnasium and other classroom buildings and is currently being used by Washington Unified School District (WUSD) to house students from Westfield Elementary School while Westfield Elementary school is being renovated. In 2018 a letter was signed by the WUSD Superintendent acknowledging the intent to support the development of a recreation reuse plan for the 1100 Clarendon Street property. The intent is to allow the City to “construct and maintain” recreation and park space and add the property to the current Joint Use Facilities Agreement between WUSD and the City, resulting in a new 26.5-acre park to be renovated and maintained by City staff and open to the public.
The 1.12-acre property at 2286 Del Monte Street (Subject Property) is adjacent to the future 26.5 acres of park located at the 1100 Clarendon Street property and shares the southwest corner property line. The Subject Property includes a small front parking lot, a single-story 12,000 square foot industrial building that was previously permitted for a cannabis manufacturing facility that never commenced operations, and a rear 698
