6021 Policy – Interfund Loans

Interfund loans between the general fund, the transportation vehicle fund, the capital projects fund or the debt service fund may be used to alleviate a temporary cash deficiency.

Such loans will not be used to balance the budget of the borrowing fund, nor will they deter any function or project for which the fund was established.

The board must adopt a resolution before any interfund loan transaction takes place. The resolution will contain the exact amount of the loan, the funds involved, the specific source of funds for repayment, the schedule for repayment and the interest rate involved.
