related citations and 48 weight related warnings. He stated that the officers had a combined total

Officer Slot’s numbers were lower due to him attending a conference, riding with Officer
Woolcock because of a computer issue that has been resolved, and because he was present on

a certified inspector present while performing an inspection.

Baytown Crime Control Prevention District
Investment Policy
Baytown Crime Control & Prevention District
Investment Policy
I.
Policy
It is the policy of the Baytown Crime Control & Prevention District (the “CCPD”) to
administer and invest its funds in a manner that will preserve principal and maintain liquidity
while meeting the daily cash flow requirements of the CCPD. The CCPD will conform to all
federal, state and local statutes rules and regulations governing the investment of the CCPD’s
funds.
The CCPD’s policy is to hold investments to maturity, however, securities may be sold in
order to minimize the potential loss of principal on a security whose credit quality has
declined; to swap into another security which would improve the quality, yield or target
duration of the portfolio; or to meet unanticipated liquidity needs of the portfolio.
Not less than annually, the CCPD Board shall adopt a written instrument by resolution
stating that it has reviewed the Investment Policy and Investment Strategies and that the
written instrument so adopted shall record any changes made to the Investment Policy or
Investment Strategies.
II.
Scope
This Investment Policy applies to all the investment activities of the CCPD. These funds are
accounted for in the CCPD’s Annual Financial Report and include all financial assets of all
funds managed for CCPD by the City of Baytown, including but not limited to tax revenues,
charges for services, bond proceeds, and interest income.
III.
General Objectives
The primary objectives, in priority order, of the CCPD’s investment activities shall be safety,
liquidity, and yield:
A.
Safety – Safety of the 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 minimize
credit risk and interest rate risk.
1. Credit Risk – The CCPD will minimize credit risk, the risk of loss due to the
failure of the security issuer or backer, by:
(a) limiting investments to the safest types of securities;
(b) pre-qualifying the financial institutions, broker/dealers, intermediaries,
and advisers with which the CCPD will do business; and
1
Baytown Crime Control Prevention District
Investment Policy
(c) diversifying the investment portfolio so that potential losses on
individual securities will be minimized
2.
Interest Rate Risk – The CCPD will minimize the risk that the market value
of securities in the portfolio will fail due to changes in general interest rates,
by:
(a) 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; and
(b) Investing operating funds primarily in shorter-term securities, money
market mutual funds, or similar investment pools
B.
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. Furthermore, since all possible cash demands cannot
be anticipated, the portfolio shall consist largely of securities with active
secondary or resale markets. A portion of the portfolio also may be placed in
money market mutual funds or local government investment pools that offer
same-day liquidity for short-term funds.
C.
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 of investments is limited to relatively low risk
securities in anticipation of earning a fair return relative to the risk being assumed.
Securities shall not be sold prior to maturity with the following exceptions:
1. A security with declining credit may be sold early to minimize loss of
principal; and
2. To swap into another security which would improve the quality, yield or
target duration of the portfolio; and
3. Liquidity needs of the portfolio require that the security be sold
IV.
Standards of Care
A.
Prudence – The standard of care to be used by investment officers shall be the
"prudent person" standard and shall be applied in the context of managing an
overall portfolio. Investment officers acting in accordance with written
procedures and the 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.
2
Baytown Crime Control Prevention District
Investment Policy
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.
B.
Ethics and Conflicts of Interest – Officers and employees involved in the
investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict
with proper execution and management of the investment program, or that could
impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions. Employees and
investment officers shall disclose to the CCPD and the Texas Ethics Commission
any material financial interests in financial institutions that conduct business with
the CCPD. They shall further file a disclosure statement with the Texas Ethics
Commission and the CCPD that includes any large personal financial/investment
positions that could be related to the performance of the investment portfolio. See
Exhibit B.
C.
Delegation of Authority – City employees authorized to engage in investment
transactions and authorized as Investment Officers are the Director of Finance, the
Treasurer, and the Financial Analyst. Management responsibility for CCPD's
investment program is assigned to the Director of Finance. This authority is
derived from the Local Government Code Chapter 363. Responsibility for the
operation of the investment program is hereby delegated to the Director of
Finance, who shall act in accordance with established written procedures and
internal controls for the operation of the investment program consistent with this
Investment Policy.
Procedures should include reference to: safekeeping,
delivery vs. payment, investment accounting, repurchase agreements, wire
transfer agreements, and collateral/depository agreements. Such procedures shall
include explicit delegation of authority to persons responsible for investment
transactions. (See Exhibit A) No person may engage in an investment transaction
except as provided under the terms of this policy and the procedures established
by the Director of Finance. The Director of Finance shall be responsible for all
transactions undertaken and shall establish a system of controls to regulate
activities of subordinate officers.
D.
Training – Investment Officers shall attend at least one investment training
session within 12 months after taking office or assuming duties, and shall attend
an investment training session not less than once in a two-year period, beginning
on the first day of the CCPD’s fiscal year and consisting of the two (2)
consecutive fiscal years after that date, and receive not less than 10 hours of
instruction relating to investment responsibilities. The CCPD shall provide the
training through courses and seminars offered by professional organizations and
associations in order to insure the quality and capability of the CCPD’s
investment personnel making investment decisions in compliance with Public
Funds Investment Act (PFIA). Professional organizations and associations that
may provide investment training included the Government Treasurer’s
Organization of Texas, the University of North Texas, the Government Finance
Officers Association of Texas, or the Texas Municipal League.

Baytown Crime Control Prevention District
Investment Policy
V.
Financial Institutions, Broker/Dealers, Safekeeping and Custody
A.
Authorized Financial Dealers and Institutions – Investment Officers will
maintain a list of financial institutions and security broker/dealers authorized to
provide investment services (Exhibit C). These may include "primary" dealers or
regional dealers. No public deposit shall be made except in a qualified public
depository as established by state laws.
All financial institutions and broker/dealers who desire to become qualified bidders
for investment transactions must supply the Investment Officer with the following
as appropriate:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Audited financial statements
Proof of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) certification
Proof of state registration
Completed broker/dealer questionnaire (Exhibit D)
Certification by a qualified representative of the firm that the firm has a)
received and reviewed the CCPD’s Investment Policy and b) has
implemented reasonable procedures and controls in an effort to preclude
investment transactions that are not authorized by the CCPD’s Investment
Policy, except to the extent that this authorization is dependent on an
analysis of the makeup of the CCPD’s entire portfolio or requires an
interpretation of subjective investment standards.
The CCPD Board shall at least annually review and/or revise and adopt a list of
qualified brokers that are authorized to engage in investment transactions with the
CCPD.
B.
Internal Controls – The Director of Finance is responsible for establishing and
maintaining an internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the
CCPD are protected from loss, theft or misuse. The internal control structure shall
be designed to provide reasonable assurance that these objectives are met. The
concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that (1) the cost of a control should
not exceed the benefits likely to be derived and (2) the valuation of costs and
benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.
Accordingly, the Director of Finance shall establish a process for an annual
independent review by an external auditor to assure compliance with policies and
procedures. The internal controls shall address the following points:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Control of collusion
Separation of transaction authority from accounting and record keeping
Custodial safekeeping
Avoidance of physical delivery securities
Clear delegation of authority to subordinate staff members
Written confirmation of transactions for investments and wire transfers
4
Baytown Crime Control Prevention District
Investment Policy
7. Development of a wire transfer agreement with the lead bank and third
party custodian
C.
VI.
Delivery vs. Payment – All trades where applicable will be executed by delivery
vs. payment (DVP) to ensure that securities are deposited in an eligible financial
institution prior to the release of funds. Securities and collateral will be held in
the CCPD’s name by a third-party custodian as evidenced by safekeeping
receipts.
Investments
A.
Eligible Investments – Assets of the CCPD may be invested in the following
instruments described below. All of these investments are authorized by Chapter

Investment Officers shall, on at least a monthly basis, verify the ratings of
investments currently held by the CCPD with either the authorized broker/dealer
from which the investment was purchased, or a broker/dealer currently authorized
to engage in investment transactions with the CCPD. As a condition of engaging
in investment transactions with the CCPD, brokers/dealers shall, when requested
by the CCPD’s Investment Officer(s), provide said Investment Officer(s) with
written verification of the ratings of investments currently owned by the CCPD.
The CCPD shall take all prudent measures consistent with this Investment Policy
to liquidate an investment that does not have the minimum rating.

B.
Collateralization – Collateralization will be required on three types of
investments: certificates of deposit, repurchase (and reverse repurchase)
agreements and guaranteed investment contracts (GICs). In order to anticipate
market changes and provide a level of security for all funds, the Collateralization
level will be one hundred two percent (102%) of market value of principal and
accrued interest.
Likewise, all time and demand deposits in excess of FDIC or NCUA insurance
levels shall be collateralized to a minimum of 102% of principal and accrued
interest. The depository shall be responsible for maintaining collateralization
margins. Collateral will be held in the City of Baytown’s name (for the CCPD)
by an independent third party with whom the City of Baytown (for the CCPD) has
a current custodial agreement approved by the Council and executed under the
terms of FIRREA (Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement
Act) as amended. A clearly marked evidence of ownership (safekeeping receipt)
must be supplied to the CCPD and retained. The right of collateral substitution is
granted, subsequent to the review and approval of an authorized City of Baytown
Investment Officer.
C.
VII.
A.
Existing Investments – Any investment currently held that does not meet the
guidelines of this policy, but were authorized investments at the time of purchase,
is not required to be liquidated.
Investment Parameters
Diversification – The investments shall be diversified by security type and
institution. With the exception of U.S. Treasury securities and authorized pools,
the CCPD will diversify the entire portfolio to comply with the investment
strategy; however, in no case shall any single investment transaction be more than
five-percent (5%) of the entire portfolio.
13
Baytown Crime Control Prevention District
Investment Policy
B.
Maximum Maturities – To the extent possible, the CCPD shall attempt to match
its investments with anticipated cash flow requirements. Unless matched to a
specific cash flow, the CCPD will not directly invest in securities maturing more
than five (5) years from the date of purchase.
VIII. Investment Strategies
The CCPD maintains separate portfolios for individual funds or groups of funds that
are managed according to the terms of this Policy and the corresponding investment
strategies listed in Exhibit E. The investment strategy for portfolios established after
the annual Investment Policy review and adoption will be managed in accordance
with the terms of this Policy and applicable agreements until the next annual review
when a specific strategy will be adopted.
The CCPD maintains a pooled fund group that is an aggregation of the majority of
CCPD funds including tax receipts, as well as some grant dollars and investment
income. This portfolio is maintained to meet budgeted funding obligations of the
CCPD. In order to ensure the ability of the CCPD to meet obligations and to
minimize potential liquidation losses, the dollar-weighted average stated maturity of
the Investment Pool shall not exceed 2 years. The objectives of this portfolio are to
ensure safety of principal; ensure adequate investment liquidity; limit market and
credit risk through diversification; and attain the best feasible yield in accordance
with the objectives and restrictions set for in this Policy
IX.
Reporting
A.
Methods – Investment officers shall jointly prepare an investment report at least
quarterly, including a management summary that provides an analysis of the
status of the current investment portfolio and transactions made over the last
quarter. This management summary will be prepared in a manner consistent
with the requirements of Section 2256.023 (Internal Management Reports) of the
PFIA, and that will allow the CCPD to ascertain whether investment activities
during the reporting period have conformed to the Investment Policy. The report
should be provided to the CCPD Board
An independent auditor shall formally review the quarterly reports prepared under
this section at least annually, and that auditor shall report the results of the review
to the CCPD Board.
B.
Performance Standards – The investment portfolio shall be managed in
accordance with the objectives specified in this policy (safety, liquidity, yield).
The portfolio should obtain a market average rate of return during a
market/economic environment of stable interest rates. The basis used by the
Investment Officer to determine whether market yields are being achieved shall
be the three (3) month U.S. Treasury Bill.
C.
Marking to Market – The market value of the portfolio shall be calculated at
least monthly and a statement of the market value of the portfolio shall be issued
at least quarterly. The market value of each investment shall be obtained from a

INVESTMENT STRATEGY
It is the policy of the Baytown Crime Control and Prevention District (the "CCPD") that, giving due
regard to the safety and risk of investments, all funds shall be invested at all times in conformance with
State and Federal statutes, applicable trust agreements or related bond document requirements, the
CCPD’s adopted Investment Policy and this Investment Strategy. The CCPD's portfolio shall be
designed and managed in a manner responsive to the public trust and consistent with the Investment
Policy.
In accordance with the Public Funds Investment Act, CCPD investment strategies establish
maximum maturities and maximum dollar-weighted average maturity limits for each portfolio
and
address the priorities for those funds (in order of priority):






Suitability of the investment to the financial requirements of the CCPD and the particular Fund
Type;
Preservation and safety of principal;
Liquidity;
Marketability of the investment if the need arises to liquidate the investment prior to maturity;
Diversification of the investment portfolio; and
Yield.
Effective investment strategy development coordinates the primary objectives of the CCPD's Investment
Policy and cash management procedures with investment security risk/return analysis to enhance interest
earnings and reduce investment risk. The CCPD intends to generally utilize a buy and hold strategy but
will evaluate more active strategies, such as swaps or outright sales of securities, for incremental income
when appropriate. The structure of the portfolio(s) will be primarily dependent upon the continuing cash
flow requirements of the funds represented. The portfolio(s) will reflect both the short and long term
needs of the funds. A limited liquidity buffer will be maintained to cover any unanticipated cash needs,
where appropriate.
With a more active position, maturity selections may be extended to gain incremental income or adjust
portfolios to economic and market conditions. It is recognized that more active management may
increase the overall weighted average maturity of the portfolios due to additional volatility.
The CCPD's Investment Officer(s) shall monitor and evaluate the ongoing economic environment and
incorporate market information from reliable sources as well as current and anticipated CCPD financial
conditions when prudently implementing these strategies. Anticipated changes in the CCPD’s Investment
Strategy shall be reported to the Board as part of the quarterly investment reporting.
The CCPD expects, but is not required by law, to consolidate and commingle funds from similar type
funds or all funds in an attempt to maximize investment earnings. Investment income by fund will be
recognized and allocated on a monthly basis based on respective fund balances for the period in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
FUND TYPE IDENTIFICATION
Each major fund type has varying cash flow requirements and liquidity needs. Therefore, specific
strategies shall be implemented considering the fund type's unique requirements. CCPD funds shall be
analyzed and invested according to the following major fund types:
20
Baytown Crime Control Prevention District
Investment Policy
a.
Operating Funds
Operating funds have ongoing cash needs in support of ongoing operations and required transfers. Funds
include: General Fund.
b.
Liquidity Buffer Accounts
Liquidity funds are to assure the CCPD’s liquidity for anticipated and unanticipated needs within one
month. A liquidity buffer is needed in all but debt service funds which have well-defined and unalterable
liabilities.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY BY TYPE
In order to minimize market risks or principal loss due to interest rate fluctuations, investment maturities
and portfolio structures will be limited by the anticipated cash flow requirements of the various fund
types. The general investment strategies are established by fund type. The use of liquidity buffers in fund
types is to provide for unanticipated liabilities.
a.
Operating Funds
The short term (one to six months) needs of the operating funds will generally be addressed through a
laddered portfolio and the longer term (six to twelve months) needs of the operating funds will be
structured in a more loosely structured ladder. Core funds, not intended for use within one year may be
extended to two years.
Operating Funds are designed to meet ongoing demands. The portfolio(s) will utilize high credit quality
securities with no perceived credit risk to meet those demands and assure liquidity if needed. Securities
with active and efficient secondary markets are necessary in the event of an unanticipated cash
requirement. Investment maturities shall be laddered based on the anticipated operating needs of the
CCPD. Market cycle risk will be reduced by diversifying the appropriate maturity structure. Operating
Funds require the greatest short-term liquidity of any of the fund types, investment pools and money
market mutual funds can provide daily liquidity.
Price volatility of the overall portfolio(s) will be minimized by requiring a maximum dollar-weighted
average days to maturity (WAM) for the Operating portfolio(s) of 180 days and restricting the maximum
allowable maturity to two years.
Attaining a competitive market yield is a desired objective. The yields on the six-month and one-year
Treasury Bills shall be the minimum yield objective and benchmarks for these funds in accordance with
their anticipated WAM restrictions.
b.
Liquidity Buffer Accounts
A liquidity buffer, dependent in size upon then–current economic conditions and CCPD cash flow needs,
shall be maintained in Operating Funds to meet immediate cash needs of at least one month and provide
for reasonable, unanticipated liabilities. The maximum maturity of these liquid invested funds should be
one day. These funds may be invested in money market mutual funds, local government pools, or in a
depository overnight sweep.

Consider a Resolution to amend CCPD Budget to reprogram funds for an additional 2014 Police
Tahoe Prepared For:
Keith Dougherty, Police Prepared By:
Shawn Fischer, Police
Information
ITEM
Consider a resolution amending the Baytown Crime Control Prevention District's Fiscal Year
2013-2014 budget in order to reprogram funds from Unforeseen/New Initiatives to Motor Vehicles
for an additional 2014 Chevrolet Police Tahoe.
PREFACE
This proposed resolution amends the Baytown Crime Control Prevention District's Fiscal Year
2013-2014 budget in order to reprogram $9,873.80 from Unforeseen/New Initiatives to Motor
Vehicles for an additional 2014 Chevrolet Police Tahoe.
The Police Department was able to aggressively look into many different purchasing contracts and
save a considerable amount on 2014 Police Tahoe's. The Police Department budgeted $27,400 for
the purchase of Police Tahoe's and actually purchased each one that will be a marked unit for
$26,397.68. The cost of the vehicles was less than the budgted amount, which resulted in a CCPD
budget savings of $8,018.56. If approved by the CCPD board, the $9,873.80 requested will be added to the $16,523.88 saved in
the Police Departments budget to purchase one additional 2014 Police Tahoe. This Tahoe will be a
special service vehicle assigned to the Support Services Sergeant. It will be used to test new
technologies which include camera systems, computers (MDT's), License Plate Recognition
Systems, emergency lighting, etc. in a real world environment. This will stop the down time from
Patrol vehicles being used for this purpose. This item supports the City of Baytown vision of continuing to provide great public safety services

During the fourth quarter the felony warrant service initiative continued. The two assigned officers were
involved with the apprehension and arrest of 50 felony warrants. Warrants were for offenses such as Sexual
Assault Of A Child, Endangering A Child, Aggravated Robbery, Burglary, Possession of Controlled substances,
DWI, Unauthorized Use Of Motor Vehicle, Fraud To Obtain Controlled Substance, Aggravated Assault On
Public Servant and many other serious offenses. This record will surely have a positive effect on our city’s crime

Halloween Sex Offender Tracking; home visits to high risk sex offenders, reminding them of their requirements
and advising the police are aware of them.
Garth Road Holiday Patrol; mass visisibiltiy and activity in the Garth Road Corridor begginning the day after
Thanksgiving and ending at the end of December. The mission was to saturate the area with marked units in
hopes of decreasing crime and increasing citizen’s feeling of security during the heavy shopping and traffic time
along with being available to back district units and take calls in the area.
The annual New Year’s Eve DWI Task Force. Five officers in three units and the Sergeant worked from 19000500 hours. Two arrests for DWI were made and one for felon in possesion of a firearm. This subject was also
in possession of 76.4 grams of Marijuana. Additionally Hot Spot officers responded to 27 calls for service
during the shift.
On 12-19-13 officers responded to a shoplifting in progress call at the Kohl’s department store. The offender
was apprehended in the parking lot after putting up a fight that ended in one officer receiving minor injuries and
the Kohl’s loss prevention officer suffering a broken hand. Approximately $1,039.00 of Kohl’s merchandise was
returned to the store. The offender, previously convicted of robbery, was charged with robbery.
In addition unit members were assigned to respond to calls for service during the shift change as there is no
longer a lap over during this period and other busy periods. Officers responded to blind calls and picked calls up
from the qued call screen on their MDTs.
Unit members spent a combined 72 hours in assistance to the Special Operations Unit during the fourth quarter.
Respectfully Submitted,
Sergeant J.R. Miller_
