1970 Arkansas Attorney General Reports and Opinions 1 (1970)

handle is hein.sag/sagar0033 and id is 1 raw text is: April 1, 1970 Mr. Rymer Twyman Supervisor, Municipal Audit Division Legislative Joint Auditing Committee State Capitol Building Little Rock, Arkansas Dear Mr. Twyman: This is in response to your recent inquiry wherein you ask the following questions: Ark. Statutes 76-344B (Municipal Aid Fund) and 76-704 (County Road Tax) provides revenues to be credited to the Street Fund of the first and second class cities and incorporated towns. The Municipal Aid revenues shall be used for the maintenance, construction and reconstruction of the streets which are not a contin- uation of the State Highways and the County Road Tax collections for use in making and repairing the streets and bridges in the respective cities and towns. May these funds be used to pay a portion of the admin- istrative salaries, such as, Mayor or City Manager's salary and City Clerk or City Clerk/Treasurer's salary? Would revenues from other sources, credited to the Street Fund, be restricted in their use for payment of a portion of the administrative salaries referred to in the previous question? In answer to your first question, we are unable to reconcile salaries of administrative officials with maintenance, con- struction and reconstruction of streets. In answer to your second question, revenues from other sources which have been credited to the Street Fund cannot be routinely or systematically used for the payment of such administrative salaries. Ark. Stat. Ann. 19-4423. Very truly yours, JOE PURCELL Attorney General By: DON R. REBSAMEN Assistant Attorney General DRR:ss
