There is created and established a special fund to be entitled a “petty cash and change revolving fund” for the purpose of paying for purchases of small items, supplies and other expenses of a minor nature incurred for the city in connection with official business of the city, and for making change for cash payments received by the city. (Ord. 2009-703 § 1)
The city treasurer is authorized to have a petty cash and change revolving fund in conformance with the provisions of this chapter. (Ord. 2009-703 § 1)
The custodian of the petty cash accounts shall be someone independent of invoice processing, check signing, general accounting and cash receipt functions. Each disbursement from the fund shall be supported by a receipt showing the date, recipient, purpose and amount of each cash disbursement. The general petty cash account will consist of $300.00. Replenishment of the petty cash accounts shall be made as necessary, and reimbursement vouchers shall have receipts attached thereto. Individual reimbursements shall be limited to a maximum of $30.00 except for the licensing of city vehicles. The custodian shall maintain suitable records showing the expenditures incurred and the departments chargeable for such expenditures. (Ord. 2009-703 § 1; Ord. 2002-543 § 1)
