N.Y. Public Authorities Law § 2050-kk: Moneys of the authority

§ 2050-kk. Moneys of the authority. All moneys of the authority from

whatever source derived shall be paid to the treasurer of the authority

and shall be deposited forthwith in interest bearing accounts in a bank

or banks in the state designated by the governing body. The moneys in

such accounts shall be paid out on check of the treasurer upon

requisition by the governing body or of such other person or persons as

the governing body may authorize to make such requisitions. All deposits

of such moneys shall be secured by obligations of the United States, the

state or of the towns of a market value equal at all times to the amount

on deposit and all banks and trust companies are authorized to give such

security for such deposits. The authority shall have power,

notwithstanding the provisions of this section, to contract with the

holders of any bonds as to the custody, collection, security, 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

carry out any such contract. 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 secured in the same manner as moneys of the authority and

all banks and trust companies are authorized to give such security for

such deposits. Any moneys of the authority not required for immediate

use or disbursement may, at the discretion of the authority, be invested

in those obligations specified pursuant to the provisions of section

ninety-eight-a of the state finance law. Subject to the provisions of

any contract with bondholders and with the approval of the comptroller,

the authority shall prescribe a system of accounts.
