North Dakota § 21-03-41

• Jurisdiction: North Dakota
• Title 21: Governmental Finance
• Ch. 21-03: Bonds

Text

When the county treasurer is custodian of any sinking fund, the county treasurer may not
remit to the treasurer of the taxing district any taxes levied or any other moneys received for the
purpose of paying the interest on or retiring the principal of bonds issued, but the county
treasurer shall retain the same in a separate special fund maintained as a sinking and interest
fund for the bonds of such taxing district. The county treasurer shall make quarterly reports to
the treasurer of the taxing district whose sinking fund the county treasurer possesses, showing
all collections and amounts added to each such fund, all payments made from such fund, and
the net balance in each such fund from time to time. The county treasurer shall keep the sinking
funds of each taxing district on deposit in such public depository as may have furnished proper
bond therefor and as may have been designated by the governing board of the taxing district.
When a sinking fund is so deposited, the county treasurer is relieved of personal responsibility
for its safekeeping.
