As of January 1, 2011
The treasurer shall pay out money of the district only upon the written order of the board, signed by the president and countersigned by the secretary.
The order shall specify the name of the person to whom the money is to be paid, the fund from which it is to be paid, and shall state generally the purpose for which the payment is to be made.
The order shall be entered in the minutes of the board.
(a) The treasurer, or other person or persons that are authorized by the board, shall draw checks or warrants to pay demands when demands have been approved by the board and signed by the president and secretary.
(b) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), the board may adopt a procedure that provides for checks or warrants to pay claims and demands without approval by the board of directors before payment if the district treasurer determines that the demands are payable within the district’s approved budget. The procedure shall contain appropriate internal controls with measures to prevent fraud and ensure accountability, and which are necessary for financial reporting in conformance with generally accepted accounting principles. Demands so paid shall be presented to the board of directors at the next regular meeting for review. Demands exceeding the district’s approved budget shall be subject to board approval.
