INVESTMENTS Treasurer Linebaugh reported that two certificates were coming due. One on the 17th of January and the other on the 25th. The one due on the 17th is for $164,000 and the one on the 25th is for $112,000. He said that he thought there would be enough savings money to put with the $164,000 to make it $200,000. Mr. Linebaugh told the Board that 30 day certificates were getting 16% interest, 60 day -15 1/2%, 90 day -15 3/8%, 180 day -14 1/4%, and 360 day -13%.
