PRESENTATIONS  
A. Treasurer Investment Income Update  
Treasurer Gwen Henry and Chief Deputy Treasurer Ellen Smith provided the Committee with a  
portfolio review of County investments. The County's diverse portfolio addresses liquidity needs,  
safety and market conditions. Yields on all asset classes have increased since Federal Reserves  
began raising rates in March 2022. Certificates of deposit have been placed with local banks at  
competitive rates, and changing conditions have driven portfolio concentration. The Treasurer's  
Department has more recently purchased bonds for the County's portfolio. As Federal Reserve  
rates began increasing, there was unprecedented differential between Treasury securities and  
bank deposit rates. Due to rapid rate changes, money market accounts have seen increased  
balances. Managed bond funds expect to have superior returns due to longer maturities and  
varied assets. Interest for FY2023 is expected to be $11 million.  
B.  
American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Update & Requests  
1. ARPA Financial Update  
Deputy Chief Financial Officer Mary Catherine Wells provided the Committee with a brief  
overview of the ARPA requests on today's agenda. As of 3/31/2023, the unallocated ARPA  
balance is $11,838,093. Today's various requests total $686,677.  
2. DuPage Convention & Visitors Bureau - $425,000  
The DuPage Convention and Visitors Bureau (DCVB) is seeking a total of $425,000 in ARPA  
funds. $75,000 is being requested for the 2024 TNBA Annual Championship Equity in Bowling  
Conference to go towards the bid fee. $100,000 is being requested for the USBC Junior Gold  
event to go towards the bid fee. $150,000 is being requested for Stardust Bowl to support their  
venue rental fees. $50,000 is being requested for the 2024 USA Water Polo Olympic  
Development Program National Championship for rental fees. $50,000 is being requested for the  
DuPage E-sports Collegiate Invitational and E-sports Frosty Faustings XV for transportation  
costs, internet costs, and venue fees. The funds will not be expended and will be returned to the  
County if bids are not won. By a show of hands, the Committee showed their support for moving  
forward with the request.  
3. DuPage Senior Citizens Council - $120,000  
The DuPage Senior Citizens Council (DSCC) is seeking a total of $120,000 in ARPA funds.  
Funds would be used to provide meals to 300 older adults residing in DuPage County.  
Participating older adults receive five meals, two times per month. The older adults in this  
population are low-income, many are disabled, several are underserved minorities, and all  
individuals cannot pay for food and grocery delivery. Committee members suggested doubling  
the funding amount, to provide DSCC with a total of $240,000. By a show of hands, the  
Committee showed their support for moving forward with the request at the increased amount.  
4. The Conservation Foundation - $141,677  
The Conservation Foundation is seeking a total of $141,677 in ARPA funds. $93,600 is being  
requested for the Farm to Pantry program, which will provide approximately 30,000 pounds of  
fresh, organic produce for over 200 families for the 20 week growing season. This will be a  
two-year program. $48,077 is being requested for the Nature Rx program, which will connect  
500 teens and young adults through 25 tailored outdoor sessions, contributing to positive mental
