  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.
