Proclamation 5187—National Correctional Officers Week, 1984
May 5, 1984
By the President of the United Slates ofAmerica
. A Proclamation
Correctional officers have the difficult and often dangerous assignment of ensuring the custody,
safety and well-being of the over 600,000 inmates in our Nation's prisons and jails. Their
position is essential to the day-to-day operations of these institutions; without them it would be
impossible to achieve the foremost institutional goals of security and control.
Historically, correctional officers have been viewed as "guards," occupying isolated and
misunderstood positions in prisons and jails. In recent years, the duties of these officers have
become increasingly complex and demanding. They are called upon to fill, simultaneously,
custodial, supervisory and counseling roles. The professionalism, dedication and courage
exhibited by these officers throughout the performance of these demanding and often conflicting
roles deserve our utmost respect. The important work of correctional Officers often does not
receive the recognition from the public it deserves. It is appropriate that we honor the many
contributions and accomplishments of these men and women who are a vital component of the
field of corrections.
In recognition of the contributions of correctional officers to our Nation, the Congress, by Senate
Joint Resolution 132, has designated the week beginning May 6, 1984, as "National Correctional
Officers Week," and authorized and requested the President to issue an appropriate proclamation.
Now, Therefore, I, Ronald Reagan, President of the United States of America, do hereby
proclaim the week beginning May 6, 1984, as National Correctional Officers Week. I call upon
officials of State and local governments and the people of the United States to observe this week
with appropriate ceremonies and activities.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this fifth day of May, in the year of our Lord
nineteen hundred and eighty-four, and of the Independence of the United States of America the
two hundred and eighth.

NATIONAL CORRECTIONAL
OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES WEEK
' A Proclamation
Correctional officers and employees are capable, committed, patient and persistent_
c professionals. They serve admirably in correctional facilities all across the country

,train, mentor, preach and cure.
Though the job of correctional officers and employees is often very challenging
and,' at times, stressful, the thousands who work the corrections profession every
day.perform their duties well and with great pride. They are brave, courageous and
tenacious individuals who put their lives and health at:risk everyday to keep the
public safe and provide,a multitude of services to the county's offenders. They
have a tremendous responsibility and are owed our communities' gratitude.
Correctional officers are most deserving of our respect, our thanks and the highest
praise. They are well-trained, always on watch and prepared to meet any challenge:
f' Thcmen and women working in corrections make a difference in our community
Ombehalf of the Brazos County Office of the Sheriff, we commend all those who

have given their lives in pursuit of this most honorable profession.

After reviewing Section 6.06 (e), it has come to our attention that the statute allows for a
governing body and the chief appraiser to agree to a different method of payment, instead of the
four equal payments made at the end of each calendar quarter.
We would respectfully request Brazos County's payments be made to Brazos Central Appraisal
District for their operating budget annually no later than December 31St of the year prior to the
budget year beginning 2018 Operating Budget.
Please let us know if you are amicable to this change.

Duane Peters Die
County Judge
This report is made in accordance with provisions of Gov.Code 2256, The Public Funds Investment Act, which
requires quarterly reporting of investment transactions to the Commissioners' Court.
The Brazos County Investment portfolio earned an average yield of 0.6222% on the quarterly average
balance of $3,697,905.71 invested with TexPool for the period ending 03/31/2017. Investment interest
deposited during the quarter was $3,935.92. Actual ending balance invested at 03/31/2017 was
$6,366,138.32.
The average rate of interest earned on the depository checking account balances for the quarter ending
03/31/2017 was 0.25% netting $75,469.90 for the quarter end on an average depository investable balance
of $122,618,245.43,
Total interest earned for quarter ending 03/31/2017 was $79,405.82.
investment Strategy
The Brazos County Investment Strategy will remain unchanged, keeping investments very short -termed &
liquid. With the safety of principal as the foremost objective of the County's investment policy followed by
liquidity and yield - it seems prudent to continue keeping the majority of available funds in the County's
depository where all funds are 110% collateralized. With the Brazos County depository contract Brazos
County earns a fixed rate of 0.25% on the funds held in the checking accounts for the term of the contract.
For diversification the County has an investment account with TexPool that provides the safety of an
overnight market. An investment of $4,000,000.00 was deposited in TexPool in March in anticipation of rising
interest rates.
VOL
summary of Portfolio Changes
The deposit of interest is the only portfolio change to balances at this time and the Weighted Average
Maturity of investments remains at 1 day due to the liquidity of funds invested with TexPool and on deposit at
Branch Banking d Trust.
