JEFFRIES AS CITY TREASURER AND RENEWAL OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY AND GEORGE W. JEFFRIES AND ASSOCIATES, INC. SUMMARY; The City Attorney is recommending that the City Council adopt a Resolution reappointing George W. Jeffries as City Treasurer for calendar year 2000. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution and authorize the Mayor to execute Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement for the professional services of George W. Jeffries, CCMT. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact with this action. BACKGROUND: In February of last year, the City Council reappointed Mr. Jeffries as Treasurer and delegated to him the authority to invest surplus City funds. The City also entered into an Agreement with George W. Jeffries and Associates, Inc., for the services of Mr. Jeffries. The delegation of investment authority to a City Treasurer may only be for a one (1) year period. Subject to the City Council's review each year, the City may renew the delegation of authority (Government Code Section 53607). Accordingly, the City cannot automatically renew Mr. Jeffries' appointment, nor can it enter into a contract with him for a term of more than one (1) year. Pursuant to the Government Code, the City Council must authorize the continued services of Mr. Jeffries as City Treasurer for 2000, and it must do so by formally adopting a resolution delegating that authority to him. Additionally, the City Council must renew the contract between the City and George W. Jeffries and Associates, Inc. By the approval of these two items, the City Council completes the formalities of the delegation for 2000. ATTACHMENTS' Resolution Reappointing George W.
