Dear Andrea:
When I was last in the City we discussed the audit note regarding under-collateralization at the bank. We
determined that the bank referred to by the auditors could not be Wells Fargo because the Request for
Proposal of 2002 in sections IV and V. 11. clearly state that the bank is responsible for the monitoring and
maintaining of collateral and required margins at all times. The City' s Investment Policy has the same
language in its Section 6.01 and the bank certified to City its review and understanding of the Policy.
From the documents you sent me I have reviewed the documents from Pearland State Bank to determine if
the same provisions applied in 1993 and 1999 when the bank won the depository contract for the City. In
the 1999 bid and response the Pearland State agreed, to the collateral conditions of Section H which require
102% margins and minimal collateral of $2,000,000. However, there are a number of problems in this
situation. The bid unfortunately put the responsibility on the City to act to require additional collateral at
low levels. The bid and response by Pearland were for a banking services contract begun in 1999 and
ending in 2002 when the City chose Wells Fargo as the new depository. Therefore any collateral
agreements ended with the cancellation of the contract in 2002.
A Depository Agreement for Pearland State Bank was sent to Mary Ross in 2002 for use with Pearland
State Bank and First Community Bank as depositories for time deposits only. I have updated the form and
one is attached for both banks. (These are available in electronic form also.) Our review of City records
did not indicate that this agreement was executed for either bank. If that is the case, it should be sent to
Pearland and First Community and executed as soon as possible. Currently the banks hold City funds
without any contract in place. The only control the City has in this situation is the Public Funds Collateral
Act which sets collateral at 100% and does not make the banks responsible for monitoring and maintaining
the collateral levels.
EXecution of this agreement should reinstate the City in control of the situation.
Sincerely,
Linda T. Patterson
