Metra has established and will maintain a practice of investing a portion of its cash assets in qualified institutions within its six county service area [that are owned by minorities or females or are qualified institutions primarily serving minorities or local areas] and will seek to ensure maximum participation by qualified disadvantaged business enterprises to the extent available. Investments in qualified institutions with their principal office located within the central business district of the City of Chicago will not be considered as serving local areas.
