BACKGROUND
Background
The 2017 legislature modified GS 159-32 to allow the the governing boards to approve increasing the required daily limit for deposting funds to $500. Until deposited each individual location is responsible for maintaining all funds in a secured location. Currently the County's administrative procedures requires that any amount of receipts $250 or greater to be deposited daily. After consultation with departments and internal auditors we recommend that administrative procedures be set with the following requirements for deposits:
a. Daily deposits are required when collections or receipts on hand are $500 or more.
b. Weekly deposits are required for any receipts/collections on hand.
c. Last business day of the month each location must deposit any receipts/collections on hand.
We believe these standards to be balanced and efficient in protecting county assets and using county resources.
