CHAPTER 6. Financial Provisions [70200 - 70204]
( Chapter 6 added by Stats. 1959, Ch. 370. )
All claims for money or damages against the district are governed by Part 3 (commencing with Section 900) and Part 4 (commencing with Section 940) of Division 3.6 of Title 1 of the Government Code except as provided therein, or by other statutes or regulations expressly applicable thereto. Claims not governed thereby or by other statutes or by ordinances or regulations authorized by law and expressly applicable to such claims shall be prepared and presented to the governing body, and all claims shall be audited and paid, in the same manner and with the same effect as similar claims against the county. Upon request from the directors, the auditor shall draw his warrant on the treasurer for the payment of claims.
(Amended by Stats. 1963, Ch. 1715.)
The auditor shall keep all necessary and proper books of account which shall contain all receipts and expenditures with their source and nature. The books and accounts of the district shall be audited once each year.
(Added by Stats. 1959, Ch. 370.)
All moneys received or collected for or on behalf of the district shall be paid to the treasurer in the same manner as county money is paid to the treasurer. Upon receipt of any money from the tax collector or from any other source the treasurer shall place the same to the credit of the district.
(Added by Stats. 1959, Ch. 370.)
The treasurer shall pay out funds only on warrants drawn by the auditor upon district funds in the same manner as county money is paid out. Warrants presented and not paid for lack of funds shall be registered and bear interest at the rate of 6 percent per annum from date of registration to date of payment or call.
(Added by Stats. 1959, Ch. 370.)
Claims for salaries and services shall be sworn and approved by the board of directors before a warrant is drawn for the same.
