Analysis
The City of Grand Prairie is a participant in TexSTAR which is a public funds investment pool created on behalf of entities. The investment objectives are consistent with the Public Funds Investment Act of Texas and are, in order of priority, the preservation and safety of principal, liquidity, and yield.
TexSTAR requires a resolution for adding or changing the names of individuals authorized to make transactions on behalf of the City/TexSTAR participant. These individuals are identified as the Authorized Representatives of the City/TexSTAR participant. There are currently three individuals authorized at TexSTAR for the City: Diana Ortiz, CFO, Tannie Camarata, Cash & Debt Manager, and Jacqueline Hathorn, Cash & Debt Analyst. The attached resolution adds Cheryl Davenport, Treasurer.
