The Clerk-Treasurer may be authorized by Council resolution to have a petty cash fund for the payment of small claims for minor purchases, collect-on-delivery transportation charges and small fees customarily paid at the time of rendering a service for which payments the Clerk-Treasurer shall obtain some form of receipt or bill acknowledged as paid by the vendor or his or her agent. At such time as the petty cash fund is approaching depletion, the Clerk-Treasurer shall draw a warrant/check for replenishment in the amount of the accumulated expenditures, and said warrant/check and supporting detail shall be submitted to the Council as a claim in the usual manner for claims and charged to the proper funds and accounts. It shall not be used for salary payments, or other personal services or personal expenses, or IOUs.
