Council Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: November 9, 2020 14
7v
Through: Norm Regis, Acting City Manager
From: Sam Hickok, Acting Finance Director
Agenda Item: Authorization for Banking Signatures
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION:
The Seward City Council is required to pass a resolution listing the individuals authorized to invest
monies and/or sign banking documents on behalf of the City of Seward. The recent departure of
the City Manager provides the need to update this authorization. This action forms the basis upon
which signature cards will be updated at the local banking institutions, and checks and City
payments and investments will be authorized on behalf of the City.
While each individual listed on the resolution is authorized to act on behalf of the City, the City's
practice is to have two separate individuals authorize every investment, approve all City payments,
and authorize all electronic banking transactions.
