EXCLUSIVELY FOR COLORADO LOCAL GOVERNMENT
Reserve Management,
Handled.
Your reserves professionally invested, your policy current,
your reporting clear, and you remain in control.
Reserve Management Is Rarely the Only Thing on Your Desk.
Most reserve programs are managed by capable people whose attention is divided across the entire organization. The work gets done. The structure around it does not always keep pace.
Budgets, forecasts, debt, and long-range financial planning
Culture, leadership, staffing, and organizational priorities
Operations, capital projects, facilities, and unexpected priorities
Board communication, reporting, public meetings, and governance
“We Should Probably
Look at That.”
It gets said in board rooms across Colorado when the investment policy comes up.
Then the agenda moves on.
Most reserve programs were not designed all at once.
They
evolved.
Projects
changed.
Balances
grew.
Priorities
shifted.
The structure quietly fell behind.
Not by decision.By default.
The Specialist Work Moves to Our Desk.
Reserve management is rarely the only thing on yours. It is the specialist work we’re built to take on.
You keep the decisions and the authority. The work arrives complete and ready for the packet.
THE INVESTMENTS
Managed within Colorado statute and organized by purpose and timing. Operating cash stays in the bank or an LGIP. Longer-term reserves are positioned for needs further out.
THE POLICY
We review the policy, identify where the written struture may have fallen behind actual practice, and we keep the document aligned with how the program actually operates.
THE REPORTING
Prepared in plain English for staff and board use. Ready for review, discussion, and documentation when needed.
That investment policy that keeps getting deferred?
Handled.
Not ready for any of that yet? Everyone in your seat has reserve questions. Bring us yours.
In 20 minutes, we identify whether it is a matter of policy, liquidity, investment structure, reporting, or
execution. No preparation and no obligation.
Sharing Reserve Governance
Speaking Across Colorado
We share practical, board-ready ideas on reserve policy, reporting, and finance-office work with Colorado local government leaders.
By Default or By Design: Five Gaps Between Reserve Policy & Reserve Reality

AI Raised the Bar: The New Standard for the Finance Office
Here is the good news about AI in the finance office: the hours it saves come back as room for judgment. This session applies that standard to real finance-office workflows, from board communication to policy and LGIP reviews, and gives attendees a practical framework for delegating the work without surrendering control.
