A.  Any act of a municipal governing body which provides for the
borrowing of monies or for appropriating monies shall not be valid

unless a majority of the governing body of the municipality votes in
favor of the action.  The municipal governing body may not
appropriate or draw any order on the treasurer for monies unless the
same has been appropriated in the manner provided by law or ordered
in pursuance of some object provided for by law.
B.  A municipality may invest its funds in any bond, note, or
other evidence of indebtedness issued by those agencies,
authorities, instrumentalities, or public entities whose governing
boards are appointed by the municipality or issued by any public
trust of which it is sole beneficiary, excluding obligations which
are industrial development bonds as defined in the provisions of
Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1953, as amended, and
regulations promulgated thereto.
C.  If a municipality has established a system for the separate
accounting of monies by fund sources that has been certified by the
auditor of the municipality, the treasurer of such municipality
acting as an officer of the municipality or as agent of any
instrumentality or public trust of the municipality may deposit into
one or more accounts of an authorized depository all monies coming
into his custody.  Unless otherwise provided for by law, interest
earnings shall be prorated according to fund source.
