Approve the Investment Policy for the City of Lawrence, if appropriate. |

Executive Summary: |
The City of Lawrence was authorized expanded investment powers under K.S.A. 12-1677b in 1999. The statute allows the City to invest in government agencies and extends the maximum maturity of an investment from two years to four years.
The Pooled Money Investment Board (PMIB) and Section 1.0 of the policy require an annual review of the City’s investment policy prior to their continued approval of expanded investment powers.
The City’s Investment Policy is unchanged since the City Commission last reviewed it on September 19, 2017.
