Previous Action: None
DEPARTMENT: FINANCE
SUBJECT : A Resolution adopting the Economic Development
Capital Improvement Program for 2004 - 2008
Reading and Public Hearing
The CEDC By-laws require that annually the Board develop a combined Economic
Development Capital Improvement Program, (EDCIP) which sets forth long and short-term
goals. This program "shall be one that addresses the development needs of the City within the
financial constraints available to the Corporation". The "EDCIP shall identify the projects to be
undertaken by the Corporation and include proposed methods and the expected cost of
implementation". After the EDCIP is developed, it must be approved by the City Council.
Staff will provide an overview of current and future park projects, including master plans and
cost estimates and review the priorities established and recommended by the Parks and
Recreation Advisory Board at their August 21, 2002 meeting. (See attached report)
For the Board's information, the current EDCIP for FY 2003 - FY 2007 is included in the
briefing as Exhibit 1. For the FY 2004 - FY 2008 EDCIP (Exhibit 2) the following revenue and
expenditure changes were proposed: reducing the sales tax revenue to Y2 the amount in the
proposed FY 2004 City of Colleyville General Fund budget with a 4% annual in the remaining
years, moving the $393,000 allocated to the trails grant match to FY 2005, and moving the
funds proposed for park land purchase out one more year (FY 2006 - $325,000 / FY 2007 -
$300,000 / FY 2008 $300,000). These changes are proposed to accommodate the revised
revenue projection and to retain the fund balance at an acceptable level.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Colleyville Economic Development Corporation Board of Directors
FROM: Dianne McWethy, Deputy City Manager
Monica Sue Walsh, Parks and Recreation Director
DATE: September 4, 2003
SUBJECT: Economic Development Capital Improvement Program (EDCIP) for
FY2004-2008
Among the primary responsibilities of the Colleyville Economic Development
Corporation (CEDC) Board of Directors is the adoption of a five-year plan and an
annual budget. The five-year plan was last updated in September 2002 and is
attached for your reference. Historically, the CEDC Board has limited the use of
funds to capital expenditures and a small administrative charge. The plan for
FY2004-2008 strives to maintain this philosophy. Many of the projects in the
plan are related to the Parks and Recreation Department.
On August 4, 2003, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board established their
priorities. (See attached). In consideration of establishing their priorities, the
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board reviewed the citizen priorities based on the
Comprehensive Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan. (See
attached). The proposed FY2004-2008 EDCIP attempts to incorporate some of
the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board identified priorities:
1 . Recreation Center
2. McPherson Park, Phase I
3. Park Land Purchase
4. Sneed Property
5. Cotton belt Trail, Phase III
6. Pleasant Run Practice Park, Phase II
7. Little Bear Creek Trail Extension
8. Senior Center
9. McPherson Park, Phase II
10. ADA Improvements
11. McPherson Park, Phase III
12. Longwood Trail
13. Park Maintenance Building
14. Bransford Park, Phase II
15. McPherson Park, Phase IV
16. Adjacent Hike and Bike Trails
17. Uniform Park Signage
18. New Tennis Courts
19. Heritage Middle School Football Lights
Revenue
The sole source of revenue for the CEDC budget is a one-half cent sales tax.
The revenue projection in this plan includes the estimated amount to be received
in FY2003 and reduces the sales tax revenue to Y2 the amount in the proposed
FY2004 City of Colleyville General Fund budget with a 4% annual in the
remaining years. These changes are proposed to accommodate the revised
revenue projection and to retain the fund balance at an acceptable level.
Projects
In preparing recommendations for the update of the five-year plan, we first
reviewed projects, included in the current plan:
1. Bransford Park Webb House rehabilitation
2. City entrance markers
3. Library start-up
4. McPherson Park Master Plan
5. Park land purchase
6. Pleasant Run Practice Park
7. Pleasant Run Practice Park land purchase
8. Trails (Cotton belt Trail III and Little Bear Creek Trail Extension)
In FY2002, the City Council approved the contract with Talent Restoration
Company, in the amount of $349,427, for rehabilitation of the Webb House,
which is located in Bransford Park. The restoration of the Webb House has been
completed. No additional funds are proposed for Bransford Park, Phase II.
The current plan includes $500,000 for start-up costs associated with the
Colleyville Public Library. We anticipate the opening of the City Hall and Library
in Fall 2003.
The current plan provides monies for Phase I of the McPherson Park, which
includes a walking trail, picnic and playground areas, entry road, fishing pond,
unstructured play areas, recreation amenities and pavilion with a restroom.
There are no funds allocated for future phases of the park. The Parks and
Recreation Advisory Board ranked McPherson Park, Phase I, as priority number
2.
The purchase of parkland is priority number 3 of the Parks and Recreation
Advisory Board. The proposed EDCIP plan proposes $925,000 for the purchase
of parkland in FY2005, FY2006 and FY2007.
The Pleasant Run Practice Park, Phase I, is complete. No additional funds are
proposed for Pleasant Run Practice Park, Phase II.
The proposed EDCIP plan includes funding for the installments for the purchase
of the Pleasant Run Practice Park. Funding for this purchase is allocated
through FY2004, as per the City's agreement with GCISD.
The construction of the Cotton belt Trail, Phase III, from John McCain Road
(north) to the Grapevine city limits and the Little Bear Creek Trail Extension from
the Nature Center to Sparger Park are planned for future grant funding. The
proposed EDCIP Plan proposes $393,000 in FY2004 for trail grant opportunities.
Conclusion
With limited funds and multiple projects, the recommended five-year plan does
not provide sufficient resources for every project identified as a priority of the
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board or the City Council. It does provide funds
for McPherson Park, Phase I and the installment for the purchase of Pleasant
Run Practice Park and leaves open the possibility of additional funds if the sales
tax receipts exceed projections.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the CEDe Board approve the five-year plan, as proposed.

COLLEYVILLE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION INVESTMENT POLICY
Policv
It is the policv of the Collevville Economic Development Corporation (the Corporation) to
invest public funds in a manner which will provide the hiQhest investment return with the

to all State of Texas statutes and City of Collevville ordinances.
Scope
This investment policy applies to all financial assets of the Corporation including:
General Fund
Debt Service Fund
Capital Projects Fund
and any new fund created by the governing body, unless specifically exempted by the
governing body.
Objectives
The primary obiectives. in priority order. of the Corporation's investment activities shall be:
Safety: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the Corporation in managing its
portfolio.
Investments of the Corporation shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the
preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective the Corporation will
diversify its investments by investing funds among a variety of securities offering
independent returns and financial institutions.
LiQuiditv: The Corporation will also maintain sufficient liquidity to provide adequate and
timely working funds.
Return on Investments: The investment portfolio shall be desiQned with the obiective of
obtaininQ a rate of return throuQhout budQetary and economic cvcles. commensurate with
the investment risk constraints and cash flow needs. The Corporation investment strateQV
is passive and the portfolio shall be designed with the objective of regularly exceeding the
weighted average return on thirteen-week Treasury bills. This is considered a benchmark
for riskless investment transactions, and therefore, is a minimum standard for the portfolio's
rate of return. For bond funds that fall under the arbitrage provisions of the Tax Reform
Act of 1986, the Corporation will attempt to earn allowable bond yield with market
conditions permitting.
Delegation of Authority
The Corporation designates the Investment Officers to be the General Manager with
overall responsibilities to see that investment objectives are accomplished and the Finance
Manager with the specific day-to-day performance of managing the funds of the
Corporation.
Ethics and Conflict of Interest
All investment Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from
personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment
program, or which could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions.
Employees shall disclose to the Colleyville Economic Development Corporation and Texas
Ethics Commission a statement under the following conditions:
A. If they have a personal business relationship with a business organization offering to
engage in an investment transaction with the entity. Under the Public Funds Investment
Act, a personal business relationship is defined as:

account of the investment officer.
B. If they are related within the second degree by affinity or consanguinity, as determined
by Chapter 573 VAT.C.S. to an individual seeking to sell an investment to the Corporation
of Colleyville.
Prudence
Investments shall be made with iudqement and care - under circumstances then prevailinq
_ which persons of prudence. discretion. and intelliqence exercise in the manaqement of
their own affairs. not for speculation. but for investment. considerinq the probable safety
of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived.
The standard of prudence to be used by investment officials shall be the "prudent person"
which means the officer may not be an expert but is obligated to act responsibly and shall
be applied in the context of managing an overall portfolio. Investment officers acting in
accordance with written procedures 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 appropriate
action is taken to control adverse developments.
Investment officers shall notify the Board of Directors in writing of any conflicts of interest,
as defined by the Public Funds Investment Act, no later than the next regularly scheduled
Board of Director's meeting.

personally indemnified in the event of investment loss provided the Investment Policy is
followed.

Investment Strategy
The investment strategy by type of fund is as follows:

matched with adequate investment liquidity. A secondary objective is to create a portfolio
which will experience minimum volatility during economic cycles. These funds shall not
have an investment with a stated maturity greater than eighteen (18) months.
(2) Debt Service Funds
The investment strategy for debt service fund(s) is the assurance of investment liquidity to
cover the debt service obligations on the required payment date. Investments purchased
shall not have a stated final maturity date which exceeds the corresponding debt service
payment date.
(3) Reserve Funds
The investment strategy for reserve fund(s) is the assurance of investment liquidity
adequate to cover the debt service obligations not funded by debt service funds on the
required payment date. Investment of reserve funds are controlled by their ordinance,
resolution or indenture, and Federal and State law. Bond documents must be examined
for each issue, for potential differences with this policy concerning investment instruments,
maximum maturity or average life restrictions, call dates or sinking fund redemptions, and
applicable arbitrage yields and rebate liability. Provisions contained in the bond documents
will supersede provisions of this policy.
Reserve funds will be invested using a more conservative approach than the current
standard investment strategy when arbitrage rebate rules require refunding excess
earnings. All excess earnings received will be segregated to allow a proper determination
of interest income to be used in the arbitrage calculation.
Maturity limitations for single issue reserve funds shall not exceed the sooner of five (5)
years, the call provisions of the bond ordinance, or the final maturity of the bond issue.
A. Diversification
The Corporation will attempt to limit the risk of loss through diversification of its portfolio
and to achieve the aforementioned investment strategies by diversification of instruments.

Arbitrage
The Tax Reform Act of 1986 places limitations on the Corporation's yield from investing
certain tax-exempt bond proceeds, debt service funds and reserve funds. The rebate
provisions require that the Corporation compute earnings on investments from certain
issues of bonds on a periodic basis to determine if rebate is required.
To determine the Corporation's arbitrage position, the corporation is required to calculate
the actual yield earned on the investment of the funds and compare it to the yield that
would have been earned if the funds had been invested at a rate equal to the yield on the
applicable bonds sold by the Corporation. The rebate provisions state that periodically (
not less than once every five years and not later than sixty days after maturity of the
bonds), the Corporation is required to pay the United States Treasury a rebate of any
excess earnings. These restrictions require extreme precision in the monitoring and record
keeping of investments, particularly in computing yields to ensure compliance. Failure to
comply can dictate that the bonds become taxable, retroactively from the date of issuance.
The investment strategy for bond funds which fall under the arbitrage provisions of the Tax
Reform Act of 1986, is that the Corporation will attempt to earn maximum allowable bond
yield with market conditions permitting.
Reporting Requirements

Manager shall issue a written report concerning the Corporation's investment transactions

COLLEYVILLE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION INVESTMENT POLICY
Policy
It is the policy of the Colleyville Economic Development Corporation (the Corporation) to
invest public funds in a manner which will provide the highest investment return with the
maximum security while meeting the daily cash flow demands of the entity and conforming
to all State of Texas statutes and City of Colleyville ordinances.
Scope
This investment policy applies to all financial assets of the Corporation including:
General Fund
Debt Service Fund
Capital Projects Fund
and any new fund created by the governing body, unless specifically exempted by the
governing body.
Objectives
The primary objectives, in priority order, of the Corporation's investment activities shall be:
Safety: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the Corporation in managing its
portfolio.
Investments of the Corporation shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the
preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective the Corporation will
diversify its investments by investing funds among a variety of securities offering
independent returns and financial institutions.
Liquidity: The Corporation will also maintain sufficient liquidity to provide adequate and
timely working funds.
Return on Investments: The investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of
obtaining a rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, commensurate with
the investment risk constraints and cash flow needs. The Corporation investment strategy
is passive and the portfolio shall be designed with the objective of regularly exceeding the
weighted average return on thirteen-week Treasury bills. This is considered a benchmark
for riskless investment transactions, and therefore, is a minimum standard for the portfolio's
rate of return. For bond funds that fall under the arbitrage provisions of the Tax Reform
Act of 1986, the Corporation will attempt to earn allowable bond yield with market
conditions permitting.
Delegation of Authority
The Corporation designates the Investment Officers to be the General Manager with
overall responsibilities to see that investment objectives are accomplished and the Finance
Manager with the specific day-to-day performance of managing the funds of the
Corporation.
Ethics and Conflict of Interest
All investment Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from
personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment
program, or which could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions.
Employees shall disclose to the Colleyville Economic Development Corporation and Texas
Ethics Commission a statement under the following conditions:
A. If they have a personal business relationship with a business organization offering to
engage in an investment transaction with the entity. Under the Public Funds Investment
Act, a personal business relationship is defined as:
1. the investment officer owns 10 percent or more of the voting stock or shares of
the business organization or owns $5,000 or more of the fair market value of the
business organization:
2. funds received by the investment officer from the business organization exceed
10 percent of the investment officer's gross income for the previous year; or
3. the investment officer has acquired from the business organization during the
previous year investments with a book value of $2,500 or more for the personal
account of the investment officer.
B. If they are related within the second degree by affinity or consanguinity, as determined
by Chapter 573 V.ATC.S. to an individual seeking to sell an investment to the Corporation
of Colleyville.
Prudence
Investments shall be made with judgement 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.
The standard of prudence to be used by investment officials shall be the "prudent person"
which means the officer may not be an expert but is obligated to act responsibly and shall
be applied in the context of managing an overall portfolio. Investment officers acting in
accordance with written procedures 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 appropriate
action is taken to control adverse developments.
Investment officers shall notify the Board of Directors in writing of any conflicts of interest,
as defined by the Public Funds Investment Act, no later than the next regularly scheduled
Board of Director's meeting.

Officers perform their duties in accordance with the policies and procedures set forth in this
policy. The Investment Officers of the Corporation (General Manager and Finance
Manager, and Assistant to the Finance Director of the City of Colleyville) shall be
personally indemnified in the event of investment loss provided the Investment Policy is
followed.

Investment Strategy
The investment strategy by type of fund is as follows:

matched with adequate investment liquidity. A secondary objective is to create a portfolio
which will experience minimum volatility during economic cycles. These funds shall not
have an investment with a stated maturity greater than eighteen (18) months.
(2) Debt Service Funds
The investment strategy for debt service fund(s) is the assurance of investment liquidity to
cover the debt service obligations on the required payment date. Investments purchased
shall not have a stated final maturity date which exceeds the corresponding debt service
payment date.
(3) Reserve Funds
The investment strategy for reserve fund(s) is the assurance of investment liquidity
adequate to cover the debt service obligations not funded by debt service funds on the
required payment date. Investment of reserve funds are controlled by their ordinance,
resolution or indenture, and Federal and State law. Bond documents must be examined
for each issue, for potential differences with this policy concerning investment instruments,
maximum maturity or average life restrictions, call dates or sinking fund redemptions, and
applicable arbitrage yields and rebate liability. Provisions contained in the bond documents
will supersede provisions of this policy.
Reserve funds will be invested using a more conservative approach than the current
standard investment strategy when arbitrage rebate rules require refunding excess
earnings. All excess earnings received will be segregated to allow a proper determination
of interest income to be used in the arbitrage calculation.
Maturity limitations for single issue reserve funds shall not exceed the sooner of five (5)
years, the call provisions of the bond ordinance, or the final maturity of the bond issue.
A. Diversification
The Corporation will attempt to limit the risk of loss through diversification of its portfolio
and to achieve the aforementioned investment strategies by diversification of instruments.
