Council approves resolutions adding new city manager to bank and investment accounts
Summary
The City Council approved a series of resolutions to add newly appointed City Manager Robert Hemminger as an authorized representative on multiple bank and public funds investment accounts, including Techstar, Logiic (logic) and TexPool accounts and signatory lists at Citizen State Bank.
The Navasota City Council on Monday approved multiple resolutions to amend authorized representatives on the city’s bank and public‑funds investment accounts to add newly appointed City Manager Robert Hemminger.
Staff explained the updates are a routine financial housekeeping step after a change in city management: banks and investment pools generally require a separate resolution for each account to add or change authorized signatories. A staff member told council those measures are intended to meet bank security and identity requirements.
Council approved Resolution No. 794‑25 to amend authorized representatives on the city’s Techstar public funds investment pool account. The motion to approve was made and seconded and passed on a voice vote.
Council then approved a similar resolution for the Logiic public funds investment pool (Resolution No. 795‑25) and for the TexPool account (Resolution No. 796‑25). For the Citizen State Bank signatory list, the council approved Resolution No. 797‑25 to add Hemminger as an authorized check signer and account access delegate.
During the discussion, a council member clarified whether the actions added or removed representatives; staff confirmed the resolutions were additions to existing authorized representatives. A council member also explained to the audience that banks sometimes require account‑specific resolutions rather than a single blanket resolution for security reasons.
All motions carried on voice votes with no recorded opposition. The resolutions update the city’s authorized representatives so the new manager can access and manage the city’s accounts as allowed by bank and investment pool procedures.
