§ 11262 County Fund Use Restrictions

This law says money given by a county board must be spent only in that county unless the board says it can be used elsewhere, and other donations must go to the place the donor wants unless the donor agrees to a different place.

Key Takeaways

  • •Money from a county board must be spent inside that county.
  • •The board can give special permission to spend the money in another county.
  • •Donations go to the area the donor wants, unless the donor says it can be used elsewhere.

Example

A county board approves $50,000 to fix potholes in County A. The money has to be used for pothole repairs in County A unless the board decides it can be used for a project in County B.

Because the money comes from the board, it must stay in County A unless the board gives permission to spend it somewhere else.
