City adopts new depository rules for Richardson funds
Richardson city council awarded the depository bid to Richardson Heights with 8.5 percent on certificates of deposit of 100000 or more, higher than the second bidder. Rates for smaller deposits vary by term from five to six percent. The new federal system requires funds to be held as certificates of deposit for fixed terms, shifting city money management from demand deposits to brokered CDs for two years.
