Journal News b. The Gazette Procurement Policv: Upon motion by Trustee Zirman, seconded by Deputy Mayor Pohar, the Board voted unanimously to approve the following Procurement Policy: PROCUREMENT POLICY FOR THE VILLAGE BRIARCLIFF MANOR 1. Every purchase to be made must be initially reviewed to determíne whether it is a purchase contract or a public works contract. Once that determination is made, a good faith effort will be made to determine whether it is known or can reasonably be expected that the aggregate a .J  amount to be spent on the item of supply or service is not subject to competitive bidding, taking into account past purchases and the aggregate amount to be spent in a year. The following items are not subject to competitive bidding pursuant to Section 103 of the General Municipal Law: purchase contracts under $20,000 (eg. Equipment, materials, supplies, etc.) and public works contracts under $35,000; emergency purchases; certain municipal hospital purchases; goods purchased from agencies for the blind or severely handicapped; goods purchased from correctional institutions; purchases under State and country contracts; and surplus and second-hand purchases from another governmental entity. The decision that a purchase is not subject to competitive bidding will be documented in writing by the individual making the purchase. This documentation may include written or verbal quotes from vendors, a memo from the purchaser indicating how the decision was arrived at, a copy of the contract indicating the source which makes the item or service exempt, a memo from the purchaser detailing the circumstances which led to an emergency purchase, or any other written documentation that is appropriate. 2. All goods and services will be secured by use of written requests for proposals, written quotations, verbal quotations, or any other method that assures that goods will be purchased at the lowest price and that favoritism will be avoided, except in the following circumstances; purchase contracts over $20,000 and public works contracts over $35,000; goods purchased from agencies for the blind or severely handicapped pursuant to Section 175b of the State Finance Law; goods purchased from correctional institutions pursuant to Section 186 of the Correction Law; purchases under State contracts pursuant to Section 104 of the General Municipal Law; purchases under county contracts pursuant to Section 103(3) of the General Municipal Law; or purchases pursuant to subdivision 6 of this policy. 3. The following method of purchase will be used when required by this policy in order to achieve the highest savings: Estimated Amount of Purchase Contract Method $ 500-2,999 Minimum of three verbal quotations $3,000-19,999 Minimum of three written/fax quotations or written request for proposals Estimated Amount of Public Works Contract Method $ 500-2,999 $3,000-34,999 Minimum of three written/fax quotations or written request 4  for proposals A good faith effort shall be made to obtain the required number of proposals or quotations. lf the purchaser is unable to obtain the required number of proposals or quotations, the purchaser will document the attempt made at obtaining the proposals ln no event shall the failure to obtain the proposals be a bar to the procurement. 4. Documentation is required of each action taken in connection with each procurement. 5. Documentation and an explanation are required whenever a contract is awarded to other than the lowest responsible offeror. This documentation will ínclude an explanation of how the award will achieve savings or how the offeror was not responsible. A determination that the offeror is not responsible shall be made by the purchaser and may not be challenged under any circumstances. 6. Pursuant to General Municipal Law Section 104-b(2xf), the procurement policy may contain circumstances when, or types of procurements for which, in the discretion of the Village Manager, the solicitation of alternative proposals or quotations will not be in the best interest of the municipality. In the following circumstances it may not be in the best interests of the Village of Briarcliff Manor to solicit quotations or document the basis for not accepting the lowest bid. a. Professional services or services requiring special or technical skill, training or expertise. The individual or company must be chosen based on accountability, reliability, responsibility, skill, education and training, judgment, integrity and moral worth. These qualifications are not necessarily found in the individual or company that offers the lowest price and the nature of these services are such that they do not readily lend themselves to competitive procurement procedures. ln determining whether a service fits into this category the Village Manager shall take into consideration the following guidelines: (a) whether the services are subject to State licensing or testing requirements; (b) whether substantial formal education or training is a necessary prerequisite to the performance of the services; and (c) whether the services require a personal relationship between the individual and municipal officials. Professional or technical services shall include but not be limited to the following: services of an attorney: services of a physician; technical services of an engineer engaged to prepare plans, maps and estimates; securing insurance coverage and/or services of an insurance broker; services of a certified public accountant; investment management services; printing services involving extensive writing, editing or art work; management of municipally owned property; and computer software or programming services for customized programs, or services involved in substantial modification and customizing or pre-packaged software. 5  b. Emergency purchases pursuant to Section 103(4) of the General Municipal Law. Due to the nature of this exception, these goods or services must be purchased immediately and a delay in order to seek alternate proposals may threaten the life, health, safety or welfare of the residents. This section does not preclude alternate proposals if time permits. c. Purchases of surplus and second-hand goods from any source. lf alternate proposals are required, the Village of Briarcliff Manor is precluded from purchasing surplus and second-hand goods at auctions or through specific advertised sources where the best prices are usually obtained. lt is also difficult to try to compare prices of used goods and a lower price may indicate an older product. d. Goods or services under $500. The time and documentation required to purchase through this policy may be more costly than the item itself and would, therefore, not be in the best interests of the taxpayer. ln addition, it is not likely that such de minimis contracts would be awarded based on favoritism. 7. This policy shall go into effect January 1, 1992, was amended April 7, 2010 and April 9,2014 and will be reviewed annually. lnvestment Policv Upon motíon by Trustee Wilson, seconded by Trustee DeRose, the Board voted unanimously to approve the following investment policy: INVESTMENT POLICY OF THE VILLAGE OF BRIARCLIFF MANOR r. scoPE This investment policy applies to all monies and other financial resources available for investment on its own behalf or on behalf of any other entity or individual. II. OBJECTIVES The primary objectives of the Village's investment activities are, in priority order, o To conform with all applicable federal, state and other legal requirements (legal); o To adequately safeguard principal (safety); . To provide sufficient liquidity to meet all operating requirements (liquidity); and 6  o To obtain a reasonable rate of return (yield) III. DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY The village board's responsibility for administration of the investment program is delegated to the Treasurer who shall establish written procedures for the operation of the investment program consistent with these investment guidelines. Such procedures shall include an adequate internal control structure to provide a satisfactory level of accountability based on a data base or records incorporating description and amounts of investment, transaction dates, and other relevant information and regulate the activities of subord inate employees. IV. PRUDENCE All participants in the investment process shall seek to act responsibly as custodians of the public trust and shall avoid any transaction that might impair confidence in the Village to govern effectively. lnvestments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the safety of the principal as well as the probable income to be derived. All participants involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program, or which could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions. V. DIVERSIF¡CATION It is the policy of the Village to diversify its deposits and investments by financial institution, by investment instrument, and by maturity scheduling VI. INTERNAL CONTROLS The Treasurer is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that deposits and investments are safeguarded agaínst loss from unauthorized use or disposition, that transactions are executed in accordance wíth management's authorization and recorded properly, and is managed in compliance with applicable laws and regulations. VII. DESIGNATION OF DEPOSITARIES The banks and trust companies authorized for the deposit of monies shall be designated annually at the April Board of Trustee meeting. VIII.

By a pledge of "eligible securities" with an aggregate "market value", or provided by General Municipal Law, $10, equal to the aggregate amount of deposits from the categories designated Appendix A to the policy. 2. By an eligible "irrevocable letter of credit" issued by a qualified bank other than the bank with the deposits in favor of the government for a term not to exceed 90 days with an aggregate value equal to 140% of the aggregate amount of deposits and the agreed upon interest, if any. A qualified bank is one whose commercial paper and other unsecured short- term debt obligations are rated in one of the three highest rating categories by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization or by a bank that is in compliance with applicable federal minimum risk-based capital requirements. 3. By an eligible surety bond payable to the government for an amount at least equal to 100% of the aggregate amount of deposits and the agreed upon interest, if any, executed by an insurance company authorized to do business in New York State, whose claims-paying ability is rated in the highest rating category by at least two nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. The terms and conditions of any eligible surety shall be approved by the governing board. 4. An "irrevocable letter of credit" issued in favor of the government by a federal home loan bank whose commercial paper and other unsecured short-term debt obligations are rated in the highest rating category by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization, as security for the payment of 100 percent of the aggregate amount of deposits and the agreed-upon interest, if any. IX. SAFEKEEPING AND COLLATERALIZATION Eligible securities used for collateralizing deposits shall be held by the bank or trust company subject to security and custodial agreements. The security agreement shall provide that eligible securities are being pledged to secure Village deposits together with agreed upon interest, if any, and any costs or expenses arising out of the collection of such deposits upon default. lt shall also provide the conditions under which the securities may be sold, presents for payment, substituted or released and the events which will enable the Village to exercise its rights against the pledged securities. ln the event that the securities are not registered or inscribed in the name of the Village, such securities shall be delivered in a form suitable for transfer. I  The custodial agreement shall provide that securities held by the bank, or trust company, or agent of and custodian for, the Village, will be kept separate and apart from the general assets of the custodial bank or trust company and will not, in any circumstances, be commingled with or become part of the backing for any other deposit or other liabilitíes. The agreement should also describe that the custodian shall confirm the receipt, substitution or release of securities. The agreement shall provide for the frequency of revaluation of eligible securities and for the substitution of securities when a change in the rating of a security may cause ineligibility. Such agreement shall include all provisions necessary to provide the Village a perfected interest in the securities. X. PERMITTED INVESTMENTS As authorízed by General Municipal Law, $11, the Village authorizes the Treasurer to invest monies not required for immediate expenditure for terms not to exceed its projected cash flow needs in the following types of investments: . Specialtime deposit accounts; . Certificate of deposit; . Obligations of the United States of America; . Obligations guaranteed by agencies of the United States of America where the payment of principal and interest are guaranteed by the United States of America; .
