FISCAL OFFICER FOR DISTRICT BOARD; COMPENSATION OF SUCH OFFICER (§ 63.2-311)

Whenever two or more political subdivisions establish a district pursuant to §
63.2-306 there shall be appointed a district fiscal officer for such district
board. The district fiscal officer shall perform all the fiscal functions for
the district board that had been previously performed for the local board by the
treasurer or other fiscal officer of each locality within the district. The
district fiscal officer for such district board shall be the treasurer of one of
the participating counties or cities or combination of counties and cities, as
mutually agreed upon by the district board with the approval of the governing
bodies. In the event the local authorities cannot agree on the selection of a
district fiscal officer, the Commissioner shall designate such district fiscal
officer. For his services as district fiscal officer, the treasurer shall be
paid such salary as may be agreed upon by the district board. In the event the
district board and the treasurer so designated cannot agree on such
compensation, then the amount of salary to be paid shall be determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction and the amount so fixed by the judge shall be
binding upon both the treasurer and the district board. Provided, that nothing
contained in this section shall affect the regular salary or expense allowance
of the treasurer as fixed annually by the State Compensation Board.
