INVESTMENT POLICY Adopted 03/12/2018 Action #74 Amended 01/12/2026 Action # TOWN OF AURORA INVESTMENT POLICY I. SCOPE This investment policy applies to all moneys and other financial resources available for deposit and investment by the Town of Aurora on its own behalf or on behalf of any other entity or individual. II. OBJECTIVES The primary objectives of the local government’s investment activities are, in priority order: • To conform with all applicable federal, state and other legal requirements (legality); • To adequately safeguard principal (safety); • To provide sufficient liquidity to meet all operating requirements (liquidity) and • To obtain a reasonable rate of return (yield). III. DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY The governing board’s responsibility for administration of the investment program is delegated to the Town Supervisor, who shall establish written procedures for the operation of the investment program consistent with these investment policies. Such procedures shall include internal controls to provide a satisfactory level of accountability based upon records incorporating the description and amounts of investments, the fund(s) for which they are held, the place(s) where kept, and other relevant information, including dates of sale or other dispositions and amounts realized. In addition, the internal control procedures shall describe the responsibilities and levels of authority for key individuals involved in the investment program. IV. PRUDENCE All participants in the investment process shall seek to act responsibly as custodians of the public trust and shall avoid any transaction that might impair public confidence in the Town of Aurora to govern effectively. Investments shall be made with prudence, diligence, skill, judgment and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which knowledgeable and prudent persons acting in like capacity would use, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the safety of the principal as well as the probable income to be derived. All participants 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. V. DIVERSIFICATION It is the policy of the Town of Aurora to diversify its deposits and investments by financial institution, by investment instrument, and by maturity scheduling. The governing board shall establish appropriate limits for the amount of investments that can be made with each financial institution or dealer, and shall evaluate this listing at least annually. VI. INTERNAL CONTROLS It is the policy of the Town of Aurora for all moneys collected by any officer or employee of the government to transfer those funds to the Town of Aurora within 7 days of deposit, or within the time period specified in law, whichever is shorter. The Town Supervisor is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control procedures to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that deposits and investments are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s authorization, properly recorded, and managed in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. VII. DESIGNATION OF DEPOSITARIES The banks and trust companies that are authorized for the deposit of moneys are as follows: • JP Morgan Chase Bank • Bank of America • Bank of Holland • Key Bank

• Citizens Bank • Manufacturers & Traders Trust Company • Five Star Bank • TD Bank • New York Cooperative Liquid Assets Securities System (NYCLASS) • Empire Public Investment Cooperative Fund of New York (EPIC FUND NY) VIII. SECURING DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS All deposits and investments at a bank or trust company, including all demand deposits, certificates of deposit and special time deposits (hereinafter, collectively, “deposits”) made by officers of the Town of Aurora that are in excess of the amount insured under the provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, including pursuant to a Deposit Placement Program in accordance with law, shall be secured by one or more of the following: 1. A pledge of “eligible securities” with an aggregate “market value” (as provided by the GML Section 10) that is at least equal to the aggregate amount of deposits by the officers. See Schedule A of this policy for a listing of “eligible securities.” 2. A pledge of a pro rata portion of a pool of eligible securities, having in the aggregate, a market value at least equal to the aggregate amount of deposits from all such officers within the State at the bank or trust company. 3. An “eligible surety bond” payable to the government for an amount at least equal to 100 percent of the aggregate amount of deposits and the agreed-upon interest, if any, executed by an insurance company authorized to do business in New York State, whose claims- paying ability is rated in the highest rating category by at least two nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. The governing board shall approve the terms and conditions of the surety bond. 4. An “eligible letter of credit,” payable to the Town of Aurora as security for the payment of 140 percent of the aggregate amount of deposits and the agreed-upon interest, if any. An “eligible letter of credit” shall be an irrevocable letter of credit issued in favor of the Town of Aurora, for a term not to exceed 90 days, by a qualified bank (other than the bank where the secured money is deposited). A qualified bank is either one whose commercial paper and other unsecured short-term debt obligations (or, in the case of a bank which is the principal subsidiary of a holding company, whose holding company’s commercial paper and other unsecured short-term debt obligations) are rated in one of the three highest rating categories by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization, or one that is in compliance with applicable federal minimum risk-based capital requirements. 5. An “irrevocable letter of credit” issued in favor of the Town of Aurora by a federal home loan bank whose commercial paper and other unsecured short-term debt obligations are rated in the highest rating category by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization, as security for the payment of 100 percent of the aggregate amount of deposits and the agreed-upon interest, if any. IX. COLLATERALIZATION AND SAFEKEEPING Eligible securities used for collateralizing deposits made by officers of the Town of Aurora shall be held by (the depositary or a third party) bank or trust company subject to security and custodial agreements. The security agreement shall provide that eligible securities (or the pro rata portion of a pool of eligible securities) are being pledged to secure such deposits together with agreed-upon interest, if any, and any costs or expenses arising out of the collection of such deposits upon a default. It shall also provide the conditions under which the securities (or pro rata portion of a pool of eligible securities) held may be sold, presented for payment, substituted or released and the events of default which will enable the local government to exercise its rights against the pledged securities. In the event that the pledged securities are not registered or inscribed in the name of the Town of Aurora, such securities shall be delivered in a form suitable for transfer or with an assignment in blank to the Town of Aurora or the custodial bank or trust company. Whenever eligible securities delivered to the custodial bank or trust company are transferred by entries on the books of a federal reserve bank or other book-entry system operated by a federally regulated entity without physical delivery of the evidence of the obligations, then the records of the custodial bank or trust company shall be required to show, at all times, the interest of the local government in the securities (or the pro rata portion of a pool of eligible securities) as set forth in the security agreement.

The custodial agreement shall provide that pledged securities (or the pro rata portion of a pool of eligible securities) will be held by the custodial bank or trust company as agent of, and custodian for, the Town of Aurora, will be kept separate and apart from the general assets of the custodial bank or trust company and will not be commingled with or become part of the backing of any other deposit or other bank liability. The agreement shall also describe how the custodian shall confirm the receipt, substitution or release of the collateral and it shall provide for the frequency of revaluation of collateral by the custodial bank or trust company and for the substitution of collateral when a change in the rating of a security causes ineligibility. The security and custodial agreements shall also include all other provisions necessary to provide the Town of Aurora with a perfected security interest in the eligible securities and to otherwise secure the local government’s interest in the collateral, and may contain other provisions that the governing board deems necessary.

Except as may otherwise be provided in a contract with bondholders or noteholders, any moneys of the Town of Aurora authorized to be invested may be commingled for investment purposes, provided that any investment of commingled moneys shall be payable or redeemable at the option of the Town of Aurora within such time as the proceeds shall be needed to meet expenditures for which such moneys were obtained, or as otherwise specifically provided in General Municipal Law Section 11. The separate identity of the sources of these funds shall be maintained at all times and income received shall be credited on a pro rata basis to the fund or account from which the moneys were invested.
