Subchapter 3 - Board of Directors or Assessors
§ 14-123-310. Treasurer

(a) The board of directors shall at their annual meeting on the first Monday in May, or as soon thereafter as practicable, elect a treasurer for the levee district, whose term of office shall continue until the first Monday in the following May or until his successor is duly elected and qualified.
(b) The treasurer shall give such bond and receive such compensation as from time to time may be fixed by the board of directors.
(c) The treasurer of any levee district shall be custodian of all funds of the district and shall cause to be made and filed with the board of directors or commissioners of the district a sufficient bond, conditioned on the faithful performance of his duties, and to render full accountability, which bond shall be written in some surety company authorized to do business in the State of Arkansas and approved by the board or its finance committee, the expense of which is to be paid by the district.
(d) The treasurer shall not be construed to be an insurer of the funds of the district and shall not be liable on the bond except for his failure to pay over or account for funds in his possession. The receipt of any funds by any depository of the district shall release the treasurer from any liability therefor unless and until the funds shall thereafter be paid to him by the depository.
