(a) The Manager shall determine the amount of public moneys which shall be available in active deposits to provide the needed cash flow to pay warrants and checks issued and outstanding, and to provide for a reasonable surplus in addition to the amount needed to pay such warrants and checks, and to maximize the interest received on public moneys. Interest on active deposits shall be paid or credited by the Municipality's designated eligible depositories at least quarterly and when funds are withdrawn, computing the time of payment from the date of deposit. No service charge shall be made by a designated eligible depository against an active deposit or collected from or paid by the Director of Finance unless such service charge is the same as is customarily imposed by institutions receiving money on deposit subject to check, in the Municipality in which event the Director of Finance may pay such charge. All public moneys not deposited in active deposits shall be invested pursuant to Section 147.05.
(b) The Manager shall, by a writing filed with the Clerk of Council, designate one or more eligible depositories as the depository or depositories of the Municipality's active deposits. In making such designation the Manager shall consider the following:
(1) The convenience by the location of the depository's office;
(2) The rate or rates of interest, if any, which the depository will pay on the active deposits;
(3) The service charges, if any, that will be made for the services of the depository; and
(4) Any other terms or conditions with respect to the depository's acceptance of the active deposit.
(c) The initial of depositories for the Municipality's active deposits shall be for a period not to exceed six months and may be made without giving the notice hereinafter provided for. Subsequent designations of depositories for the active deposits shall be:
(1) For a period specified in the Manager's written designation of depositories pursuant to subsection (b) hereof, which period shall not be less than six months nor longer than two years, and
(2) Shall be made after the Director of Finance has provided written notice by first-class mail to the eligible depositories having an office in the Municipality, and such other eligible depositories as determined by the Director of Finance, at least sixty days prior to the date of the action of the Manager designating depositories for the active deposits.
Such notice shall:
(3) Provide an estimate of the maximum amount of such active deposits at any time during the period of designation, and the proposed period of designation or alternative proposed periods of designation;
(4) Request such depositories to apply in writing for all or part of the active deposits on or before a date and time specified in the notice;
(5) Request a depository to state in its application the amount of such active deposits that will be accepted by it, the rate or rates of interest, if any, that will be paid on such active deposits, the service charges, if any, that will be made for its services, other terms or conditions with respect to the depository's acceptance of all or part of the active deposits and the location of its offices in the Village, or if none are located in the Village, the location of its nearest offices; and
(6) Include or request any other information to or from such depositories which the Director of Finance deems relevant.
The request for written applications or their receipt does not constitute a bidding procedure. Rather such request and application are intended to provide relevant information to the Manager for his or her designation pursuant to subsection (b) hereof and to provide notice to eligible depositories that the Municipality will receive applications and proposals for its active deposits.
(d) The Manager shall enter into a contract, approved as to form and content by the Director of Law, with such depositories for the appropriate period determined pursuant to subsection (c) hereof. Such contract shall establish the rate or rates of interest, if any, to be paid by the depository on the Municipality's active deposits, the service charge, if any, the depository may make for its services, and other terms or conditions of the depository's acceptance of the active deposits.
(e) The limitations on the aggregate amounts of public moneys that may be on deposit with eligible depositories as set forth in the Uniform Depository Act shall apply under this chapter. (Ord. 24-83. Passed 9-21-83.)
