Section 1599-H. Moneys of the authority  


Latest version.
  • All moneys of the authority shall
      be  paid  to  the  director  of  finance  of  the  city  as agent of the
      authority, who shall not commingle such moneys with  any  other  moneys.
      Such  moneys  shall be deposited in a separate bank account or accounts.
      The money in such accounts shall be paid out by the director of  finance
      on  requisition  of  the  chairman of the authority or of such person or
      persons as the authority may authorize to make such  requisitions  after
      audit  by  and upon the warrant of the director of finance. All deposits
      of such moneys shall, to the extent required  by  section  two  thousand
      nine  hundred  twenty-five  of this chapter be secured by obligations of
      the United States or the state of New York at a market  value  equal  at
      all  times  to  the  amount  of  the  deposit,  and  all banks and trust
      companies are authorized to give such security for  such  deposits.  The
      director  of  finance  and  his  legally  authorized  representative are
      authorized and empowered from time to time to examine the  accounts  and
      books   of   the   authority,  including  its  receipts,  disbursements,
      contracts, leases, sinking funds, investments and any other records  and
      papers  relating  to  its  financial  standing. The authority shall have
      power, notwithstanding the provisions of this section, to contract  with
      the holders of any of its bonds as to the custody, collection, securing,
      investment and payment of any moneys of the authority or any moneys held
      in  trust  or otherwise for the payment of bonds or in any way to secure
      bonds, and to carry out any  such  contract  notwithstanding  that  such
      contract  may  be  inconsistent  with  the  previous  provisions of this
      section. Moneys held in trust or otherwise for the payment of  bonds  or
      in  any  way to secure bonds and deposits of such moneys may be acquired
      in the same manner as moneys of the authority, and all banks  and  trust
      companies  are  authorized  to give such security for such deposits. The
      account of the authority shall be subject  to  the  supervision  of  the
      state  comptroller  and he or his legally authorized representatives are
      hereby authorized and  empowered  from  time  to  time  to  examine  the
      accounts   and   books   of   the  authority,  including  its  receipts,
      disbursements, contracts,  sinking  funds,  investments  and  any  other
      matter  relating  to  its  financial  standing  and  fiscal affairs. The
      authority shall render a complete annual account of its  proceedings  to
      the  Mayor  and the city council at or prior to its first meeting of the
      city council in March of each and every year and at such other times  as
      may reasonably be requested by the city council.
