§ 16601 Public Utility Receipts

• •Money made by a public utility (like water or electricity) must be paid into the district's treasury every day.
• •This money goes into a special fund just for that public utility.
• •The law makes sure the money is kept separate and not mixed with other funds.

A city runs a water company that charges people for water use.

Every day, the money people pay for water must go into a special bank account just for the water company. The city can't use this money for anything else, like fixing roads or schools.
