County Judge Daryl Fowler and County Treasurer Desi Poth-Garibay joined more than 200 other county officials from across Texas at the 2025 Conference of the County Investment Academy, held June 16-18 in Corpus Christi.
Hosted by the Texas Association of Counties (TAC), the annual conference brought together county treasurers, auditors, judges, commissioners, and finance professionals to strengthen financial leadership and enhance investment strategies for county governments. Discussion topics included current economic trends, best practices in public fund investing and strategies for leveraging artificial intelligence to enhance county management.
“This conference is a great chance to learn what’s new and what’s working when it comes to managing county finances,” Poth-Garibay said. “It helps ensure we manage taxpayer dollars wisely and keep our county financially secure.”
