APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTRRS MINUTES OF THE OF THEYORBALINDA WATER UISTRICT YORBA LINDA WATER DISTRICT FINANCE-ACCOUNTING COMMITTEE APR 2008 March 25, 2008 A meeting of the Yorba Linda Water District Finance-Accounting Committee was called to order by Committee Chairman John Summerfield at 4:00 p.m. The meeting was held at the EOC room, 913 S. Richfield Road, Placentia. DIRECTORS PRESENT: STAFF PRESENT: Director Michael J. Beverage, Chair Michael Payne, General Manager Director John W. Summerfield Ken Vecchiarelli, Assistant Gen. Manager Diane Cyganik, Finance Director Sandi Van Etten, Senior Accountant VISITORS PRESENT: None ACTION ITEMS: 1. Status report on Wells Capital portfolio investments as of March 24, 2008. Keith Khorey and Michael Rodgers of Wells Capital joined in a conference call regarding the District's investments at Wells Capital. They discussed the status and exposure of the eight corporate obligations the District had as of March 1991. If we chose to sell all corporate obligations right now, the District would incur an estimated net loss of about $12,000.00. Several members felt it was advisable to let the investments mature, with the longest maturity being 6/15/08, and then roll them over into the money market fund, assuming the economic conditions would still suggest that action. Wells Capital felt there was no urgency to sell off these obligations immediately. After much discussion the consensus was reached that the District should keep the investments as they are for now, and revisit this issue at the next Finance-Accounting Committee meeting. DISCUSSION ITEMS: 2. Status report on the Orange County Commingled Investment Pool. It was confirmed that the District had received the full amount of our investment in the pool, which totaled $133,447.53. Our account with the Orange County Investment Pool is now closed. It was recommended that we not invest with them further, both for safety of investments and ability to navigate their investment system. ADJOURNMENT: The Committee adjourned at approximately 5:00 p.m. The next Finance-Accounting Committee meeting is scheduled for April 89i at 4:00 p.m. at District Headquarters, 4622 Plumosa Drive, Yorba Linda, CA. -1-
