The interest earned in a municipality's reserve fund shall be credited to the municipality's reserve fund. Legal expenditures shall be made from the fund upon requisition of the governing authorities of a municipality, spread on the minutes and signed by the mayor of the municipality, the secretary of the mayor, or the president of the city council or board of aldermen. A municipality may deposit funds as needed into its reserve fund. Laws, 1999, ch. 352, § 1, eff. 7/1/1999.
