CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST TO FILE AN APPLICATION TO AMEND THE ZONING ORDINANCE, REGARDING PARKING RECREATIONAL AND COMMERCIAL VEHICLES ON RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY (COUNCILMEMBER
DIXON AND MAYOR KAPTAIN)
A summary of the application for the proposed text amendments to the City’s zoning ordinance was outlined as follows: (1) allow the parking of recreational vehicles on residential property
during the five-month, peak camping season of May through September, provided the vehicle
was motorized, less than 25 feet long, and parked on a lawful surface, among other things; (2)
allow the residential, off-street parking of heavier weight trucks and sport utility vehicles that are in common use by residents, and; (3) allow a taxi cab driver to park one cab at their residence. It was noted that the process is initiated by an application for text amendment by the city council.
Should the city council vote to approve submitting the application, the public hearing before the
Planning and Zoning Commission (PZC) will occur on April 1, 2019. PZC will then consider the
application and provide the city council with its recommendation. Council discussed allowing off-street parking of heavier weight trucks and SUV’s while still
excluding commercial vehicles, and accommodating changing industry standards regarding taxis
and Uber/Lyft drivers by allowing them to park in their driveways. Also discussed was the
continued exclusion of trailers in regards to recreational vehicles, additional setbacks for the recreational vehicles, and the limited timeframe for parking for recreational vehicles on private property.
Councilmember Dixon made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Powell, to move the
application forward to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Upon a roll call vote: Yeas: Councilmembers Dixon, Martinez, Powell, Rauschenberger, Shaw, Steffen, and Mayor Kaptain. Nays: Councilmember Gavin.

ORDINANCE G4-19 PASSED REPEALING CHAPTER 10.34 ENTITLED
“PANHANDLING” OF THE ELGIN MUNICIPAL CODE, 1976, AS AMENDED
Councilmember Gavin questioned why the ordinance was being repealed. Corporation Counsel

ability of a municipality to suppress aggressive panhandling. He recommends repealing this
section of the Elgin Municipal Code and that the aggressive panhandling would be independently prosecuted on a case by case basis through other legal avenues already in place.

the public health, safety and general welfare by insuring the public property remains readily
available for its intended uses.

the impounded personal property may be sold by negotiation, disposed of or sold
as junk, kept by the city or donated to any other governmental agency or charitable
organization.

It’s Our Fox River Day Proclamation
Mayor Kaptain read the following proclamation:
PROCLAMATION
WHEREAS, The Fox River was central to the lives of native Americans inhabiting the Fox River Valley in Wisconsin and Illinois for over a millennia, providing an abundance of food and
water to those native populations and also to the early settlers of the Valley, providing a source of
water and power to feed, shelter and drive the early machinery which formed the commercial and
industrial base that gave first growth to our community; and WHEREAS, The Fox River, once a fine fishery and source of public water supply, became
burdened with the uncontrolled discharge of industrial, commercial and municipal wastes, with
the resulting pollution threatening the health and welfare of all populations of the Fox River,
including human and wildlife; and WHEREAS, sustained and increasingly diligent and effective efforts have been made over
the past century to reduce and eliminate pollution and changes to our river’s natural shorelines;
and
WHEREAS, The Fox River has been largely freed from its burden of pollution and once again has become a safe source of recreation and reliable public water supply, with its fish and
wildlife population in clear recovery; and
VOLUME LXXXIV SEPTEMBER 11, 2019
403
WHEREAS, The City of Elgin recognizes the historic, present and future value of this
unique and precious natural resource to our community and all other communities within and beyond the Fox River Valley; and
NOW, THEREFORE, I, David Kaptain, Mayor of the City of Elgin, Illinois, do hereby
proclaim the third Saturday of September, this year and every year thereafter, shall be recognized
as IT’S OUR FOX RIVER DAY, and to have and support events that honor and celebrate the life and wellbeing of Our Fox River for us to share now, and with generations to come.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 11th day of
September, 2019.

and an amended policy for incurring debt for the City of Elgin be and is hereby established to read
as follows:
NOVEMBER 6, 2019 VOLUME LXXXIV
478
Section 1. Purpose.
The City’s Debt Management Policy provides comprehensive guidelines for the issuance and management of debt, as well as the reporting and continuing disclosure requirements
related to the City of Elgin’s debt financing. It is the objective of the policy for the City to
obtain financing only when necessary, establish conditions to obtain financing at the lowest
cost, retain the highest practical credit rating, and to maintain full and complete financial
disclosure and reporting. In addition to adherence to this policy, the City’s financing will also be in compliance with applicable Federal law, U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) regulations, and Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) as supplemented by
the City’s home rule powers.
This policy provides a functional tool for debt management, as well as, enhancing the City's reputation for managing its debt in a conservative and prudent manner. Adherence to the
policy is essential to ensure the City maintains a sound financial position and protects the
credit quality of its obligations.
Section 2. Scope.
This policy will be all-inclusive of debt issued by the City including, but not limited to,
general obligation bonds, revenue bonds, installment contracts, leases, special service area
bonds, special assessment bonds, working cash bonds, tax anticipation warrants, tax
anticipation notes, revenue anticipation notes, and tax increment bonds. In addition, refunding bonds may be issued and can save municipalities interest costs. This policy
contains certain elements on procedures and practices to achieve the objectives of the
policy and to ensure professional standards are defined and met in the policy’s
implementation.
Section 3. Legal and Regulatory Requirements.
A. Federal: The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) of 1986 as amended and its arbitrage
and rebate regulations govern the tax-exempt status of municipal bonds. Upon
issuance of any municipal bonds, the City will covenant to follow certain federal
rules and regulations in order to maintain the tax-exempt status of the bonds. To receive these benefits, the City must ensure that the requirements under the IRC are
met, generally for as long as the bonds remain outstanding.
These requirements include, but are not limited to:
1. File Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form 8038-G, Information Return for Tax-Exempt Governmental Obligations ($100,000 or greater) or Form
8038-GC, Information Return for Small Tax-Exempt Governmental Bond
Issues, Leases, and Installment Sales (less than $100,000);
2. Bond proceeds must be used to finance activities of, or facilities owned,
operated or used by, the issuer for its purpose or another state or local government for its own purposes;

3. Allocate to expenditures not later than 18 months after the later of the date
each expenditure is paid or the date the project, if any, that is financed by the issue is placed in service; and 4. Rebate to the IRS for investments earning a yield materially higher than the
yield of the bond issue (arbitrage), unless an appropriate exception to the
rebate requirement is met.
B. U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC): Congress passed the Securities Act of 1933 with the objective of providing investors full disclosure of material
facts about securities offered and sold. In 1934, Congress passed the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 that created the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
and empowered the SEC with broad authority over most aspects of the securities industry. Although municipal securities are exempt from many of the requirements, the City is still subject to:
1. Rule 10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934: Sets out the general
statement of federal intent to protect investors against misleading
statements or omissions of important facts in official statements or other documents pertaining to the bond issuance; and 2. Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Rule 15c2-12”):
Governs the preparation and distribution of official statements for municipal
securities and meeting continuing disclosure requirements.
C. State: By virtue of its population and pursuant to the provisions of Section 6 of Article VII of the Constitution of the State of Illinois (the “Constitution”), the City
is a home rule unit and may exercise any power or perform any function pertaining
to its government and affairs including, but not limited to, the power to tax and to
incur debt. Pursuant to the provisions of said Section 6, the City has the power to incur debt payable from ad valorem property tax receipts or from any other lawful source and maturing within 40 years from the time it is incurred without prior
referendum approval.
On the 23rd day of April, 1975, the City Council of the City adopted an ordinance determining the procedures to be followed in the borrowing of money for public purposes of the City and in evidence of such borrowing the issuing of full faith and
credit bonds of the City without referendum approval, such ordinance being
entitled:
Ordinance No. G22-75
AN ORDINANCE establishing procedures to be
followed by the City of Elgin, Kane and Cook Counties,
Illinois, in issuing non-referendum general obligation bonds
which ordinance was amended by Ordinance No. G14-80 adopted on January 28,
1980, by Ordinance No. 64-80 adopted on October 8, 1980, by Ordinance
NOVEMBER 6, 2019 VOLUME LXXXIV
480
No. G39-82 adopted on July 28, 1982, and by Ordinance No. G31-92 adopted on
June 17, 1992 (Ordinance No. G22-75 as so amended, the “Enabling Ordinance”).
Any borrowing of money undertaken by the City shall be necessary for the welfare
of the government and affairs of the City, for a proper public purpose or purposes
and in the public interest. In addition, any borrowing shall be authorized pursuant
to the applicable provisions of the Illinois Municipal Code, as amended, as further
supplemented and, where necessary, superseded, by the powers of the City as a home rule unit under the provisions of Section 6 of Article VII of the Constitution
and the Enabling Ordinance adopted pursuant to such home rule powers, and as
further supplemented by the Local Government Debt Reform Act, as amended.
Section 4. Guidelines for Use.
Debt is a financing tool which should be thoughtfully used and will be considered when
some or all of the following conditions exist:
A. Adequate resources – future revenues sufficient to cover debt service;
B. Characteristics – projects represent a one-time investment (e.g. building) rather than ongoing operations (e.g. maintenance of building);
C. Favorable market conditions – interest rates and construction costs are reasonable;
D. Intergenerational equity – help distribute costs and benefits of capital assets over
their useful lives;
E. Length of issuance – term of financing will not exceed expected life of capital asset; F. Mandates – improvements required by federal or state authorities;
G. Options – other financing has been explored and is not viable for the timely
acquisition or completion of a capital asset; and
H. Within financial limits – consistent with federal, state, and local regulations.
Section 5. Types of Debt.
The types of debt permitted by the City to meet its financing objectives includes, but is not
limited to:
A. General obligation bonds – financing secured by the credit and taxing power of the
City; with a defined source of revenue often times being used to abate all or a
portion of the property taxes supporting the general obligation bonds.
B. Revenue bonds – financing secured only by a defined source of revenue (not
property tax); C. Capital leases – financing of a vehicle or equipment over time with a provision to
transfer ownership at a nominal amount at the termination of the lease;
D. Loans – federal and state low interest financing secured by a defined source of
revenue (not property tax) typically used for water and wastewater projects; and
E. Other – special circumstances may exist when other forms of debt are appropriate, necessary, and advantageous to the City.
VOLUME LXXXIV NOVEMBER 6, 2019
481
State and local governments receive tax benefits under the IRC that lower borrowing costs
on their bonds. Bondholders are willing to accept a lower interest rate because interest paid to bondholders on these obligations is not includable in their gross income for federal income tax purposes. The City will generally issue tax-exempt bonds. However, the City
may occasionally issue taxable bonds which have a higher interest rate.
In addition, the City shall be mindful of the potential benefits of bank qualified bonds. This designation is given to a bond issuance if the City reasonably expects to issue in the calendar year of such offering no more than $10 million of bonds. When purchased by a
commercial bank for its portfolio, the bank may deduct a portion of the interest cost of
carry for the position. Therefore, the City will strive to limit its annual issuance of bonds
to $10 million or less, as amended from time to time, when the estimated benefits are greater than the benefits of exceeding the bank qualification limit.
The City shall not be permitted to use derivative instruments including interest rate swaps,
forward swaps, swap options, basis swaps, caps, floors, collars, rate locks, cancellation
options or any similar hedge, derivative, or synthetic instrument. Section 6. Standards of Care.
A. Prudence: Debt shall be issued with judgment and care under the circumstances
then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion, and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs. The standard of prudence to be used by debt management officials shall be the “prudent person” standard and shall be applied
in the context of managing an overall debt portfolio. City officers and employees
acting in accordance with this policy, and any other written procedures, and
exercising due diligence shall be relieved of personal liability, provided that officers and employees report deviations from expectations in a timely fashion and take appropriate action to control adverse developments.
B. Maintaining the Public Trust: All participants in the debt management process shall
seek to act responsibly as custodians of the public trust and shall avoid any
transaction that might impair public confidence in the City. C. Ethics and Conflicts of Interest: Officers and employees of the City who are involved in the debt management process shall refrain from personal business
activity that could conflict with proper execution and management of the debt
program, or which could impair their ability to make impartial decisions.
Employees and officials shall disclose to the Board any material interests in financial institutions with which they conduct business.
Section 7. Structuring Practices.
The duration of a bond issue shall not exceed the economic or useful life of the improvement or asset that the issue is financing. The City shall design the financing schedule and repayment of bonds to take best advantage of market conditions and, as
practical, to recapture or maximize its credit capacity for future use, and moderate the
impact to the taxpayer.
NOVEMBER 6, 2019 VOLUME LXXXIV
482
A. Maturity guidelines
1. Governmental activities – maturity limited to twenty years 2. Business-type activities – maturity limited to forty years
B. Debt service schedule
1. A level or declining debt service schedule will be employed unless
operational matters dictate otherwise, or except to achieve overall level debt service with existing bonds.
2. The City will use the debt service schedule which will best fit with the
overall debt structure or revenue source of the City’s bonds at the time the
new bonds are issued.
3. Consideration will be given to coordinating the length of the issue with the lives of assets, whenever practicable.
C. Use of redemption features
A call option, or optional redemption provision, gives the City the right to prepay
or retire bonds prior to their stated maturity. These prepayment provisions are structured into the original bond issuance to provide the City an opportunity to
manage its debt portfolio. The exercise of these prepayment provisions is usually
through the issuance of refunding bonds, although cash on hand is also a source.
Bonds can be refunded to achieve one or more of the following objectives:
1. Reduce future interest costs – shall be at least 2% present value savings for current refunding;
2. Restructure future debt service in response to evolving conditions regarding
anticipated revenue sources;
3. Alter bond characteristics, such as call provisions or payment dates, on
existing bonds; and 4. Change the legal requirements, termed covenants, of the original issue to
reflect more closely the changing conditions of the City or the type of bond.
Section 8. Debt Issuance Process
A. Approval of issuance – The City Council shall adopt an ordinance authorizing the
issuance of bonds.
B. Method of sale
The City will select the method of sale which best fits the type of bonds being sold, market conditions, and the desire to structure bond maturities to enhance the overall
performance of the debt portfolio. The general methods for the sale of municipal
bonds include:
1. Competitive sale – Bonds are marketed to a wide audience of investment
banking firms (underwriting). Their bids are submitted electronically at a specific time and the bonds will be sold to the bidder proposing the lowest
true interest cost (TIC).
VOLUME LXXXIV NOVEMBER 6, 2019
483
2. Negotiated sale – The City will negotiate all rates and terms of the sale with
an underwriter who is selected in advance of the bond sale. 3. Private placement – The City sells its bonds to a limited number of sophisticated investors, but not the general public.
C. Selection and use of professional service providers
The City will procure professional services as needed to successfully authorize, structure, and market bonds due to the complex nature of the transactions. These professional service providers may include arbitrage consultants, bond counsel,
escrow agents, financial advisors, paying agents, underwriters, and verification
agents.
1. Financial Advisor The Financial Advisor will recommend the financing structure; prepare and
review preliminary and official statements; review ordinances concerning
the authorization and award of financing; assist the City in developing and
presenting information to rating agencies; provide the electronic bidding platform; and provide assistance with the closing and delivery of securities. To ensure independence, the Financial Advisor will not bid on or underwrite
any City bond issues on which it is advising.
2. Bond Counsel Involvement Bond Counsel will prepare and review the ordinances authorizing and awarding the bonds; provide a written opinion regarding the validity and
binding effect of the bonds; determine the federal tax status of any bonds;
and prepare bound official transcripts related to the authorization, offering,
sale and delivery of the bond issue. The City will also seek assistance from Bond Counsel on other types of debt financing, as well as on any questions involving federal tax or arbitrage law. To ensure independence, Bond
Counsel will not simultaneously represent any other party involved in the
financing unless a conflict waiver is obtained from the City.
D. Credit ratings The City may seek a rating on all new bond issues being sold in the public market.
Municipal bond ratings determine the amount of investment risk and interest cost
on bonds used for financing City projects. These ratings assess several factors
including, but not limited to, current state of the economy, debt structure, financial condition, and management practices. The City will use both formal and informal methods to disseminate information and communicate with the rating agencies as
follows:
1. Full disclosure of the financial condition of the City on an annual basis;
2. Formal presentation on a regular basis covering economic, financial, operational, and other issues that impact the City’s credit; 3. Disclosure of financial events that may impact the City’s credit;
4. Dissemination of the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR); and
5. Distribution of any documents pertaining to the sale of bonds.

Section 9. Debt Management Process
A. Investment of proceeds-
The City acknowledges its ongoing fiduciary responsibilities to actively manage
the proceeds of bonds issued for public purposes in a manner that is consistent with
the City’s investment policy, Illinois statutes that govern the investment of public
funds, and consistent with the covenants of related bond documents. The investment of bond proceeds requires significant diligence in meeting the
objectives of regulatory compliance, management of the covenants described in
financing documents, and the needs of the projects being funded.
B. Compliance practices 1. Arbitrage – It is the City’s policy to minimize the cost of arbitrage rebate
and yield restriction while strictly complying with the federal arbitrage and
rebate regulations. The City will take the following steps to minimize any
rebate liability through proactive management in the structuring and
oversight of its bonds. a. Examine whether the City met the arbitrage rebate exception rules;
b. Use bond proceeds only for the purpose and authority for which they
were issued;
c. Monitor the expenditure of bond proceeds and exercise best efforts
to spend proceeds in such a manner that the City will meet one of the spend-down exemptions from arbitrage rebate;
d. Maintain detailed investment records and monitor the investment of
bond proceeds with awareness of rules pertaining to yield
restrictions; and
e. Perform arbitrage rebate calculations as determined by the IRS. 2. Continuing disclosure – The City has covenanted and agreed in the bond
ordinances authorizing its various bond issues, in accordance with Rule
15c2-12, to provide certain financial information and operating data relating
to the City within 210 days after the close of the City’s fiscal year; and, in
a timely manner, to provide notices of the occurrence of certain reportable events. The following will be filed by the City with the Municipal Securities
Rulemaking Board (MSRB) for disclosures on its Electronic Municipal
Market Access (EMMA) system:
a. Audited financial statements;
b. Financial and operating data included in the original official statement;
c. Required event notices; and
d. Voluntary event notices.
3. Legal covenants – The City shall comply with all covenants and conditions contained in any legal document entered into at the time of the bond
offering.

WHEREAS, an investment policy of municipal funds for the City of Elgin pertains to the

desirable to update the city’s investment policy of municipal funds.
NOVEMBER 6, 2019 VOLUME LXXXIV
486
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
ELGIN, ILLINOIS, that Ordinance No. S37-04 be and is hereby amended in its entirety, and an amended investment policy of municipal funds for the City of Elgin be and is hereby established
to read as follows:
Section 1. Scope of Investment Policy.
The provisions of this ordinance shall not apply to the investment of such funds which by
law are in the control of an officer other than the City Treasurer. All financial assets of funds,
including: the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Capital Project Funds, Debt Service Funds,
Enterprise Funds, Internal Service Funds, Nonexpendable Trust Funds, and such other funds that
may be created from time to time shall be administered in accordance with the provisions of this ordinance.
Any monies received for independent funds including but not limited to the Police Pension
Fund and the Firefighter’s Pension Fund shall be administered by the written order of the
respective Board of Trustees of each fund. In the absence of such orders, money received and securities held by the City of Elgin on behalf of such funds shall be administered in accordance
with the provisions of this ordinance.
Section 2. Objectives.
Funds of the City shall be invested in accordance with the Public Funds Investment Act,
30 ILCS 235/01, et seq., as amended from time to time, this ordinance, and policies and written
administrative procedures consistent with the Act and this ordinance. The purpose of this
ordinance is to establish cash management and investment guidelines for City officials responsible
for the stewardship of public funds. Primary objectives include:
a. 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. The objective will be to mitigate credit risk and interest
rate risk. 1. Credit Risk. The City will minimize credit risk, which is the risk of loss due to
the failure of the security issuer or backer, by:
• Limiting investments to the types of securities listed within this
Investment Policy.
• Pre-qualifying the financial institutions, broker/dealers, intermediaries,
and advisers with which the City will do business.
• Diversifying the investment portfolio so that the impact of potential
losses from any one type of security or from any one individual issuer will be minimized.
2. Interest Rate Risk. The City will minimize interest rate risk, which is the risk
that the market value of securities in the portfolio will fall due to changes in
market interest rates, by:
VOLUME LXXXIV NOVEMBER 6, 2019
487
• Structuring the investment portfolio so that securities mature to meet cash requirements for ongoing operations, thereby avoiding the need to sell securities on the open market prior to maturity.
• Investing operating funds primarily in shorter-term securities, money
market mutual funds, or similar investment pools and limiting the average maturity of the portfolio in accordance with this policy.
b. Legality. All investments shall be made in conformance with Federal, State, and other
legal requirements.
c. 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, a portion of the portfolio may be
placed in money market mutual funds or local government investment pools which offer same-day liquidity for short-term funds.
d. Yield. 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 investments are limited to relatively low risk securities in anticipation of
earning a fair return relative to the risk being assumed. Securities shall generally be
held until maturity with the following exceptions:
• A security with declining credit may be sold early to minimize loss of principal.
• A security swap would improve the quality, yield, or target duration in the
portfolio.
• Liquidity needs of the portfolio require that the security be sold.
e. Diversification. To avoid incurring unreasonable risks regarding specific security
types and individual financial institutions, investments shall be diversified based upon
type of funds invested and cash flow needs of the fund.
f. Public Confidence. In managing its investment portfolio City officials shall avoid any
transactions that might impair public confidence of the government of the City.
Investments shall be made with judgment and care under circumstances then
prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as their probable income to be derived.
Section 3. Standards of Care.
1. Prudence The standard of prudence to be used by investment officials shall be the “prudent
person” standard and shall be applied in the context of managing an overall portfolio.
NOVEMBER 6, 2019 VOLUME LXXXIV
488
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.
The “prudent person” standard states that, “Investments shall be made with judgment
and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation,
but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the
probable income to be derived.”
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(s) with whom business is conducted
on behalf of the City. 3. Delegation of Authority
Management administrative responsibility for the investment program is vested in the
Treasurer who shall establish written procedures for the operation of the Investment
Program consistent with these policies. Such procedures shall include explicit
delegation of authority to persons responsible for investment transactions. No person may engage in an investment transaction except as provided under the terms of this
policy and procedures established by the Treasurer. The Treasurer shall be responsible
for all transactions undertaken and shall establish a system of controls to regulate the
activities of subordinate officials.
Section 4. Cash Management.
The City's policy regarding cash management shall be based upon the fact that there is a
time value to money. Temporarily idle cash may be invested for a period of one day to an excess
of one year depending upon when the money is authorized to be needed. Accordingly, the Treasurer shall cause to be prepared written cash management procedures which shall include, but
not be limited to, the following:
A. Receipts
All monies due the City shall be collected as promptly as possible. Monies that are received
shall be deposited in an approved financial institution no later than the next business day
VOLUME LXXXIV NOVEMBER 6, 2019
489
after receipt by the City. Amounts that remain uncollected after a reasonable length of
time shall be subject to any available legal means of collection. B. Disbursements
Any disbursements to suppliers for goods or services or to employees for salaries and
wages shall be contingent upon an available budget appropriation. All disbursements shall be supported by proper documentation and approved by the City Council.
C. Cash Forecast
At least monthly, a cash forecast shall be prepared using the expected revenue sources and items of expenditure to project cash requirements over the fiscal year. The forecast shall be updated from time to time to identify the probable investable balances that will be
available.
D. Pooling of Cash Except for cash in certain restricted and special accounts, pool the cash of various funds to
maximize investment earnings. Interest income earned from investments will be allocated
to the various funds based on their respective participation.
Section 5. Accounting.
The City shall maintain its accounting records based on the basis of Fund and Account
Groups, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. All investment transactions
shall be recorded in the various funds of the City in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as promulgated by the Government Accounting Standards Board. Accounting treatment shall include:
• Investments with a maturity equal to or less than one year when purchased will be
carried at cost or amortized cost. Investments with a maturity greater than one year when purchased will be reported at fair value.
• Premium or discount shall be amortized over the life of the investment.
• Gains or losses of investments in all funds shall be recognized at the time of
disposition of the security.
Section 6. Internal Controls.
The Treasurer shall establish a written procedure of internal controls. The internal controls
shall be reviewed by an independent certified public accountant in conjunction with the annual examination of the financial statements of the City. The controls shall be designed to prevent
losses of public funds arising from fraud, employee error, and misrepresentation by third parties,
unanticipated changes in financial markets, or imprudent actions by employees and officers of the
City of Elgin.
Section 7. Investment Selection.
NOVEMBER 6, 2019 VOLUME LXXXIV
490
The City of Elgin may invest in any type of security allowed by law as set out in the Illinois
Compiled Statutes, Chapter 30 ILCS 235/2. Approved investments include, but are not limited to:
• Bonds, notes, certificates of indebtedness, treasury bills, treasury strips or other securities,
including obligation of the Governmental National Mortgage Association, which are
guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the government of the United States of America, or other similar obligations of the United States of America or its agencies.
• Interest bearing savings accounts, interest bearing certificates of deposit or interest bearing
time deposits or any other investment constituting direct obligations of any institution as
defined by the Illinois Banking Act and is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

ratings agency) of state, provincial and local governments and public authorities.
• Short-term discount obligations of the Federal National Mortgage Association or in shares of other forms of securities legally by savings and loan associations incorporated under the
laws of this state or any other state or under the laws of the United States. Investments
may be made only in those savings and loan associations of which the shares, or investment
certificates are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
All investments, except for the Illinois Public Funds or similar type of investments/money
market pools, shall be selected on the basis of competitive bids. Financial Institutions located
within the City of Elgin will be awarded a bid if the local bid is not less than the prevailing rate.
Section 8. Diversification of Maturities.
The City shall diversify its use of investment instruments to avoid incurring unreasonable
risks inherent in over investing in specific instruments, individual financial institutions or
maturities. Maturities selected shall provide for stability of income and reasonable liquidity.
A. Diversification
The investments shall be diversified by:
• Limiting investments to avoid overconcentration in securities from a specific issuer or business sector (excluding U.S. Treasury securities and Federal Agency
securities),
• Limiting investments in securities that have higher credit risks,
• Investing in securities with varying maturities, and
• Continuously investing a portion of the portfolio in readily available funds such
as local government investment pools (LGIP’s), money market funds or
VOLUME LXXXIV NOVEMBER 6, 2019
491
overnight repurchase agreements to ensure that appropriate liquidity is
maintained in order to meet ongoing obligations. B. Maturity Scheduling
Investment maturities for operating funds shall be scheduled to coincide with anticipated
cash flow needs, taking into account large routine expenditures (payroll, accounts payable, bond payments) as well as considering sizable blocks of anticipated revenue (sales tax, property tax). Investment maturities in the General Fund and Special Revenue Funds shall
be limited to a maximum maturity of 36 months from the date of purchase. Investments in
other funds may be purchased with maturities to match future projects or liability
requirements. Notwithstanding, the provisions of the above paragraph, no investment in any fund shall
have a maturity date greater than the period allowed by the Illinois Compiled Statutes, City
ordinance, or by other standards of this policy.
C. Delivery vs. Payment
All trades where applicable will be executed by delivery vs. payment (DVP) to be sure 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 safekeeping receipts. D. Safekeeping
Securities will be held by an independent third-party custodian selected by the entity as
evidenced by safekeeping receipts in the City of Elgin’s name. The safekeeping institution shall annually provide a copy of their most recent report on internal controls (Statement of Auditing Standards No. 70, or SAS 70).
Section 9. Competitive Selection of Investment Instruments.
Before the City invests its surplus funds, a competitive "bid" process shall be conducted. If a specific maturity date is required, either for cash flow purposes or for conformance to maturity
guidelines, bids will be requested for instruments which meet the maturity requirement. If no
specific maturity is required, a market trend (yield curve) analysis will be conducted to determine
which maturities would be most advantageous. Section 10. Qualified Institutions.
The City will maintain a listing of financial institutions authorized to provide investment
services. In addition, a list also will be maintained of approved security brokers/dealers selected by credit worthiness. All financial institutions and brokers/dealers who desire to become qualified for investment transactions must supply the following as appropriate:

The amount of collateral provided shall not be less than 105% of the fair market value of the net
amount of public funds secured. The ratio of fair market value of collateral to the amount of funds
secured shall be reviewed weekly and additional collateral will be requested when the ratio
declines below the level required. Collateral shall be held in third party safekeeping and shall be
evidenced by a tri-party signed safekeeping agreement. Collateral agreements will preclude the release of the pledged assets without an authorized signature from the City of Elgin, but they will
allow for an exchange of collateral of like value.
Section 12. Reporting Requirements.
The Treasurer shall generate monthly reports for management purposes. In addition, the
City Council will be provided quarterly reports which will include data on investment instruments
being held, as well as any narrative necessary for clarification.

A. The city shall not contract with any contractor or vendor, maintain any financial relation
with any financial institution, or use the service of any labor organization or member
thereof, which employs five (5) or more persons which does not first submit to the city a
written commitment to provide equal employment opportunity. However when a
contractor, vendor, financial institution, labor organization or member thereof is the sole source of the particular work product or service desired and such is essential for the
efficient governmental operations of the city, such written commitment shall not be
required. The written commitment required by this section shall:
1. Set out and agree to maintain specific employment or membership practices and policies sufficient to achieve equal opportunity;
2. Set out specific goals for participation by minority groups and female persons qualified
by or for training or through previous work experience. This provision will not infringe
upon the right of the employer to determine the need for or qualifications of employees;
3. Agree to submit to the city upon request written evidence of the effectiveness of the
above required practices, policies and goals;
DECEMBER 18, 2019 VOLUME LXXXIV
592
4. Agree to submit to the city upon request statistical data concerning employee
composition or membership composition on race, color, sex and job description;
5. Agree to distribute copies of the above commitment to all persons who participate in
recruitment, screening, referral and selection of job applicants, prospective job
applicants or members;
6. Agree to require any subcontractor to submit to the city a written commitment which
contains the provisions required by subsections A1 through A5 of this section.
7. The written commitment required by this section may also be satisfied by filing a copy
of an affirmative action program of the contractor/vendor which is in effect and which has been approved by any local, state or federal agency with jurisdiction to approve
such programs.
B. All such contracts by and between the city and contractors and vendors for the purchase
of the city of goods and/or services shall contain the following clauses:
The contractor/vendor will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for
employment because of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, ancestry, order
of protection status, familial status, marital status, physical or mental disability, military
status, sexual orientation, or unfavorable discharge from military service which would not interfere with the efficient performance of the job in question.
The contractor/vendor will take affirmative action to comply with the provisions of this
ordinance and will require any subcontractor to submit to the City of Elgin a written
commitment to comply with those provisions. The contractor/vendor will distribute copies of this commitment to all persons who participate in recruitment, screening,
referral and selection of job applicants, prospective subcontractors.
C. Any contractor, vendor, financial institution or labor organization contracting with the
city will be required to submit to the city, upon written request by the city, compliance reports containing such information as to the practices, policies, programs and statistics
of employee or membership composition on race, color, sex, age and job description,
as may be prescribed by the city and will require any subcontractor to submit a
compliance report upon written request by the city. The required compliance report
shall be substantially in the form which is on file in the purchasing office.
D. Before a contract is let to a contractor or financial institution by the city, or before
purchases are made from a vendor, the purchasing agent or city clerk must have on file
a written statement from the contractor, vendor, or financial institution that it has a
present or proposed program which is approved as an acceptable equal employment opportunity or affirmative action plan for the utilization of minorities in their work force.
Neither this section, nor any other section of this title, shall be construed to prevent the
city manager or department heads from authorizing or doing business with contractors
or vendors for emergency services or supplies.
VOLUME LXXXIV DECEMBER 18, 2019
593
E. In the event that any contractor, vendor, financial institution or labor organization contracting with the city fails to comply with the fair employment and affirmative action
provisions of this section, the city, in its discretion, may:
1. Cancel, terminate or suspend the contract in whole or in part;
2. Declare the contractor, vendor, financial institution or labor organization ineligible for
further contracts for a calendar year;
3. Recover from the contractor or vendor by setoff against the unpaid portion of the contract
price, or otherwise pursuant to this contract, the sum of fifty dollars ($50.00) per day, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each day that the contractor or vendor shall
fail to comply with these provisions of the contract, as determined by the city council
after recommendation by the city manager, the said sum being fixed and agreed upon
by and between the contractor and the city because of the impracticability and extreme
difficulty of fixing and ascertaining the actual damages which the city would sustain in the event of such a breach of contract, and said amount is agreed to be the amount of
damages which the city would sustain;
4. Impose such other sanctions as may be recommended by the city manager or his designee
pursuant to this section or other ordinances."
Section 3. That all ordinances or parts of ordinance in conflict with the provisions of
this ordinance be and are hereby repealed to the extent of any such conflict.
