Title 6 - Consolidated Health Districts
395-A - Designation of Depository.

§ 395-a. Designation of depository. The board of health of any
consolidated health district may designate by resolution one or more
banks or trust companies in which the moneys paid to the president of
the board as provided herein shall be deposited. Notwithstanding the
provisions of section four hundred ten of the education law, in a
consolidated health district in which there is but one bank or trust
company, the bank or trust company so designated as depository may be
one of which members of such board of health are officers, directors or
stockholders. Such designation and deposit of such moneys shall release
the president of the board from any liability for loss of such moneys by
reason of the default or insolvency of any such depository. The board of
health may require any bank or trust company so designated as a
depository in which such moneys are on deposit or are to be deposited to
deliver to such board a surety bond payable to the consolidated health
district, executed by a surety company authorized to transact business
in this state and securing to such district the payment of such
deposits; or in lieu of such a surety bond, such board may require any
such bank or trust company to deposit with such board obligations of the
United States of America, of the state of New York or of any county,
town, city, village or school district of the state of New York as
security for such moneys so deposited, but such obligations shall be
subject to the approval of such board and shall be held for safekeeping
at such place and under such conditions as such board may determine.
