The emergency fund of twenty thousand dollars or so much
thereof as may be levied will, it is expected, seldom be needed or used,
but is provided as a safeguard or protection in event an emergency
should arise. It shall be used for emergency purposes only and shall
be dedicated and appropriated to meet any unexpected demand which
arises after the tax levy has been made, the occurrence of which
could not reasonably have been foreseen, which is of an unusual,
urgent and extraordinary nature and which clearly and imperatively
necessitates the expenditure of money from this fund, all of the
requisites being necessary to constitute an emergency purpose.
The emergency fund or any part thereof shall not be used for any
purpose whatsoever, except the [temporary] use hereinafter set
forth in this section and the [use] unexpended balance thereof [as]
shall be a part of the surplus to be carried over to the ensuing fiscal
year as provided by Section 8-19.
At the close of each fiscal year, the county commissioners shall
prepare a balanced, itemized statement of the emergency fund for
such fiscal year showing first, the amount of the fund levied, secondly
the expenditures therefrom in full detail with clear and complete
explanation of the emergency requiring such expenditures and third,
the unexpended balance on hand at the end of such fiscal year, to
which statement the county commissioners shall sign their signa-
tures to be attested by the clerk. They shall further make affidavit
that such statement is a true and accurate account as therein set
forth, and they shall publish such statement, thus prepared, signed,
attested and sworn to, at least three times during the month of
July, following the close of such fiscal year, in one daily newspaper
published in the county.
Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, That this Act shall take effect
July 1, 1970.
Approved April 1, 1970
