and the period of time such amounts will be available for investment
and shall submit such recommendations as deemed necessary for the
efficient and safe management of City finances. The recommendations

of a bank or trust company shall be personally deposited by such officers
in a safety deposit box in the name of the City in a bank or trust
company, access to which shall be permitted only in the personal presence
and under the signature of at least two of such officers.

B, it becomes necessary to transfer or sell any securities of such funds, any two or more of the officers specified in Subsection
C may transfer the securities to any other funds in which there are temporarily idle moneys or shall sell such securities, and for such purpose they shall have authority to make any necessary written directions, endorsements or assignments for and on behalf of the City.

pursuant to this section shall be credited pro rata to the funds from
which the investments were made and shall be used, insofar as possible,
to relieve the ad valorem tax levies of the City. The City Clerk shall
maintain a complete and detailed record at all times of all investments
made pursuant to this section.
