§ 19-2802 — Donations and bequests; regulations for supervision; board of trustees, when

The county may receive donations and bequests of either money or property, for the purposes established in K.S.A. 19-2801. The board of county commissioners shall make all regulations necessary for the supervision and conducting of said activities, and may hire such employees as may be necessary. Whenever such activities have been established as authorized under the provisions of K.S.A. 19-2801 and the county commissioners, shall, by resolution, determine that it is to the best interests of the county to place the supervision of such activity under a county board of trustees, the said commissioners may appoint a board of not less than three (3) members and not more than nine (9) members, composed of persons other than the board of county commissioners, who shall serve at the pleasure of the commission. The board so established may be vested with all of the powers theretofore vested in the county commissioners, or such supervisory powers as the commissioners may, by resolution, delegate, and the board so appointed may exercise all powers so delegated.
