§ 6841 District Treasurer Selection Rules

This law lets a corporation be chosen to handle money, or lets the board say the county treasurer will do the money‑handling job for the district.

Key Takeaways

  • •A corporation can be selected to serve as treasurer.
  • •The board can decide the county treasurer will perform treasurer duties.
  • •This applies to the district or the part of the district that is mostly in one county.

Example

A small school district needs someone to collect and pay its bills. The board can either hire a private company to be the treasurer, or they can tell the county treasurer to do the work instead.

Because the law allows either a corporation or the county treasurer to act as treasurer, the board can pick whichever option works best for the district.
