It shall be the duty of the city treasurer to receive and safeguard all funds which are remitted to the city or any of its officers, and to issue a proper receipt to the payor for each remittance received. Insofar as the provisions of any ordinance of the city direct any officer of the city to collect fees, charges, taxes, or payments of any kind, such provisions shall be construed as referring to actions incidental to the collection of such payments, with the actual receipt of the funds to be performed by the city treasurer.
