§ A216 BROOME COUNTY CHARTER AND CODE § A301
(B) Expenditure from a petty cash fund may be made only for payment, as authorized by the
Comptroller in advance of audit, of properly itemized and verified or certified bills for
materials, supplies or services other than regular employment, furnished to the County
for the conduct of its affairs, and upon terms calling for payment to the vendor upon the
delivery of any such materials or supplies or the rendering of any such services. Moneys
in any such fund also may be used for the purpose of making change when such is
required in the performance of official duties. Moneys in any such fund established for
the Offices of the Sheriff, District Attorney or Public Defender may also be used to
advance travel funds to personnel of the Sheriff's, District Attorney's or Public Defender's
Office when required to travel on official business.
(C) Upon audit of bills, the petty cash fund shall be reimbursed from the appropriate
budgetary item or items in the amount equal to the amount audited and allowed. The
Comptroller immediately shall notify the Commissioner of Finance, in writing, of the
disallowance of any such bills or any portion thereof, stating the amount in each case
disallowed and the reason therefor. Any of such bills or any portion thereof as shall be
disallowed upon audit shall be the personal liability of the official responsible for the use
of the petty cash fund from which payment on account thereof was made. Such official,
upon direction of the Comptroller, shall forthwith reimburse the petty cash fund in the
amount disallowed. If such reimbursement is not promptly made, the amount thereof
shall be deducted from the official's salary by order of the Comptroller and paid into the
petty cash fund until repaid in full.
