Summary of Request:
Pursuant to Health and Safety Code, Division 8, Part 4, Chapter 6, Section 9077, the Cemetery District can request to withdraw funds from the County Treasury if:
(a) Notwithstanding Section 9076, a district that has total annual revenues greater than five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) may withdraw its funds from the control of the county treasurer pursuant to this section.
(b) The board of trustees shall adopt a resolution that does each of the following:
1. States its intent to withdraw its funds from the county treasury.
2. Adopts a procedure for the appointment of a district treasurer. The board of trustees may appoint the district treasurer. The board of trustees may appoint the district treasurer, or the board of trustees may delegate the appointment of the district to the district’s general manager. The district treasurer may be a member of the board of trustees, the secretary of the board of trustees, the general manager, or a district employee.
3. Fixes the amount of the bond for the district treasurer and other district employees who will be responsible for handling the district’s finances.

5. Adopts a procedure for drawing and signing warrants, provided that the procedure adheres to generally accepted accounting principles. The procedures shall provide that bond principal and salaries shall be paid when due.

6. Designates a bank or a savings and loan association as the depositary of the district’s funds. A bank or savings and loan association may act as a depositary, paying agent, or fiscal agency for the holding or handling of the district’s funds, notwithstanding the fact that a member of the board of trustees whose funds are on deposit in that bank or savings and loan association is an officer, employee, or stockholder of that bank or saving and loan association, or of a holding company that owns any of the stock of that bank or savings and loan association.
(c) The board of trustees and the board of supervisors of the principal county shall determine a mutually acceptable date for the withdrawal of the district’s funds from the county treasury, not to exceed 15 months from the date on which the board of trustees adopts its resolution.
