280.260  Issuance of warrants.

      1.  If the county auditor or comptroller refuses to allow the payment of any demand, the demand must be presented to the committee with the refusal of the county auditor or comptroller endorsed thereupon and his or her reasons for the refusal.

      2.  If the committee, by a unanimous vote of all its members orders the issuance of a warrant in such a case, the county auditor or comptroller shall immediately issue the warrant upon service upon him or her of a copy of the committee’s order on which the secretary of the committee has certified that all its members voted for its passage; otherwise, the demand must be declared rejected, and no warrant may thereupon issue.

      3.  If the county auditor or comptroller allows such a demand in part, a warrant may be issued only for that part unless the committee allows a greater sum by a unanimous vote of its members.

      4.  No warrant may be drawn by the county auditor or comptroller on a department’s fund, unless there is sufficient money in the fund to pay the warrant. Any warrant drawn contrary to the provisions of this subsection is void.
