REGULAR AGENDA ITEMS 3a Approval of the annual review and updates to the City of Colleyville Investment Policy Finance Director Kyle Lester stated the Public Funds Investment Act requires the City, as the governing body of a public entity, review the investment strategy and adopt a written instrument by resolution stating it has reviewed the investment policy and investment strategies. Director Lester noted during his review of the Investment Policy, he discovered one change, which was overlooked for deletion in the previous policy, which is the SEC, registered, no load money market mutual funds listed under the Diversification of Portfolio by Instrument. He explained the Local Government Investment Pools fall under the category of a "money market mutual fund". Because they are specifically mentioned in the diversification section, it is not necessary to include money market mutual funds as a category. The members agreed with the recommendation and then discussed recommending reducing the maximum percentage of repurchase agreements to 15%. Director Lester stated the 15% is reasonable and will advise City Council of the recommendation.
