The City Treasurer provides monthly reports disclosing the City's financial position and investment activity to the City Council, recommends and arranges for the investment of idle funds and acts in administering the bond assessment programs. As the general financial advisor to the City and the citizens' independent financial-managerial observer, the City Treasurer serves as a member of the Finance Committee along with two members of the City Council and the City Manager. The Committee meets quarterly to review and make recommendations regarding the City's budget, debt and other financial actions.
