Council approves staggered reinvestment of matured CD
Summary
Treasurer John Brown reported a matured certificate of deposit of approximately $112,000–$115,000. Council approved reinvesting the funds in two CDs with staggered maturities (half in a six-month instrument and half in a 12-month instrument) to diversify interest-rate and liquidity risk.
The council approved a motion July 8 to reinvest a matured certificate of deposit (approximately $112,000–$115,000) in staggered terms to diversify maturities. Treasurer John Brown reported current options and interest rates; council directed staff to place roughly half in a six-month instrument and half in a 12-month instrument.
Councilmembers said staggering maturities could guard against interest-rate fluctuations and maintain liquidity. The motion was seconded and passed by unanimous voice vote.
