Article 2. Claims And Demands of California Harbors And Navigation Code >> Division 8. >> Part 4. >> Chapter 5. >> Article 2.
All claims for money or damages against the district are
governed by Part 3 (commencing with Section 900) and Part 4
(commencing with Section 940) of Division 3.6 of Title 1 of the
Government Code except as provided therein, or by other statutes or
regulations expressly applicable thereto. All claims not governed
thereby shall be filed with the auditor on forms and blanks
prescribed by him. A claim shall not be paid without the endorsement
of the auditor certifying to its correctness.
The auditor shall keep a record, which shall be a public record,
of all claims against the district showing by whom made, for what
purpose, the amount thereof and when paid.
If there is not sufficient money in any fund to pay the
demands made against it, the demand shall be registered in a book
kept by the treasurer, showing its number, when presented, date,
amount, name of payee, and on what account allowed and out of what
fund payable, and when so registered, the demand shall be returned to
the person presenting it with the endorsement of the word
"Registered" dated and signed by the treasurer. All registered
demands are payable in the order of their registration.
This section does not prevent the payment by the treasurer of
bonds of the district or of any city or county, and interest coupons
thereof, in accordance with the Constitution of this State and the
provisions of this part authorizing the issuance and payment of such
bonds.
Wages and salaries shall be paid at such intervals as the
board may direct, but at least once each month.
