Every officer and employee of the County who now is or hereafter may be authorized by law or ordinance to collect or receive any fee, charge, fine, forfeiture, deposit or other moneys for any purpose as a part of official duties shall issue a receipt showing the payment or deposit thereof in the manner set forth in regulations issued by the Auditor & Controller. The Auditor & Controller may provide in the regulations: (1) the number and distribution of originals and copies of receipts; (2) for the destruction of any or all copies of such receipts when their usefulness for accounting purposes has ceased; (3) for the withholding or nondelivery of the receipt to the person making the payment or deposit: (a) when remittances are received through the United States mail in such form that, as determined by the Auditor & Controller, such receipt may be dispensed with or, (b) when large numbers of very small individual payments are being regularly collected and the department's internal control is such that the Auditor & Controller determines to dispense with the receipts.
