City Administrator David checked with Blue Ridge Bank and Pazk Bank regazding the services
comments request for additional control over the bank accounts. He told the Blue Ridge
Bank representative that the board was not comfortable with the fact that they
didn't have their system up and running and the board would re-evaluate
this again in one year.
Park Bank cannot provide the services request either. The Pazk Bank
representative said they had never had anyone with commercial accounts ask for
the service. He did tell them the city is just trying to maximize their earnings.
UMB Bank's Positive Pay service provides the city with additional control over
its accounts and help minimize check fraud. This service can help protect the
city from the liability of having fraudulent checks presented for payment against
the city's account. With Reconciled Positive Pay, the city can eliminate the
posting of encoding en•ors, misposted items and the adjustments made to correct
these processing problems.
This will combine most of the city's accounts. The bond accounts will have to
be investigated and figure out how all that works. John McClelland, City
Attorney said the UMB system would be set up for one type of process and to
add the bond accounts, this would have to be investigated. The cost per month
for this service is approximately $200.00.
Westbrook & Co., P.C. has been chosen to provide cash management services
for the City. There will be an Ordinance prepared next week to officially
approve the company for this service.
By unanimous decision, it was decided to place certain signatures on the
banking agreement and those signatures are: Mayor Betty Burch, Aldermen
Darata, Beard, Super, David Blackburn, City Administrator and Judy Miller,
Treasurer. The bank document is the written resolution that the board will
adopt as to whose signatures or authorization is to be on the account and to
perform wire services.
