Within fifteen (15) days after his/her
election and before entering upon the discharge of the duties of his/her
office, the City Treasurer shall execute to the City a bond in the
sum of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00) and with such number of
sureties as the Mayor in the exercising of sound judgment may deem
sufficient, conditioned that he/she may faithfully perform the duties
of his/her office as required by law and the ordinances of this City,
and that he/she will account for and promptly pay over all monies
coming into his/her possession and belonging to the City at the time
and in the manner provided by law. The bond shall be approved by the

[R.O. 1992 § 115.330; Ord. No. 7230, 6-15-1992]
It shall be the duty of the City
Treasurer, upon the presentation to him/her of any warrant drawn by
the proper authority, if there shall be money enough in the depository
belonging to the fund upon which said warrant is drawn and out of
which the same is payable, to draw his/her check as City Treasurer
upon the City depository in favor of the legal holder of said warrant,
and to take up said warrant and charge the same to the fund upon which
it is drawn; but in no case shall the City Treasurer draw any check
upon any fund in the City depository unless there is sufficient money
belonging to the fund upon which said warrant is drawn to pay the
same. No money belonging to the City shall be paid out of the City
depository except upon the checks of the City Treasurer; and all such
checks shall be payable by said depository at its place of business
in the City. In case any bonds or coupons or other indebtedness of
the City are payable, by the terms of such bonds, coupons or other
indebtedness, at any particular place other than the City Treasury,
nothing herein contained shall prevent the City Council from causing
the Treasurer to place a sufficient sum at the place where such bonds,
coupons or other indebtedness shall be payable at the time of their
maturity, to meet the same.
