Section 307. System revenues; adjustment of surcharge  


Latest version.
  • All surcharge monies
      remitted to the municipality by a service supplier and all other  monies
      dedicated to the payment of system costs from whatever source derived or
      received  by  the municipality shall be expended only upon authorization
      of the board and only for payment of system costs as permitted  by  this
      article. The municipality shall separately account for and keep adequate
      books  and  records of the amount and source of all such revenues and of
      the amount and object or purpose of all expenditures thereof. If at  the
      end of any fiscal year the total amount of all such revenues exceeds the
      amount  necessary  for payment of system costs in such fiscal year, such
      excess shall be reserved and carried over  for  the  payment  of  system
      costs in the following fiscal year. However, if at the end of any fiscal
      year  such  E911  reserved  fund balance exceeds an amount equal to five
      percent of that necessary for the payment of system costs in such fiscal
      year, the board  shall  by  local  law  reduce  the  surcharge  for  the
      following  fiscal  year  to  a  level which more adequately reflects the
      system cost requirements of its E911 system. The board may also by local
      law reestablish or increase such surcharge, subject to the provisions of
      section three hundred three of this article, if the  revenues  generated
      by  such  surcharge  and by any other source are not adequate to pay for
      system costs.
