Sec. 32. (a) The flood control board may establish an “emergency flood control district fund”, which may not exceed at any time one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000). The emergency fund shall be established out of money transferred from the flood control district maintenance fund.

     (b) Whenever the emergency fund is reduced below one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), the flood control board may transfer from the maintenance fund the sum it considers necessary for the purpose of replenishing the emergency fund.

     (c) The county treasurer shall keep the emergency fund separate from the other funds of the flood control district. Any unexpended sum in the fund shall be retained from year to year to meet flood emergencies as they arise.

     (d) The sum in the emergency fund may not be considered in making up the budget of the flood control district, except for the purpose of determining the amount to be levied in order to replenish the fund.

     (e) All withdrawals from the emergency fund shall be used solely for emergency purposes, and shall be made upon order of the flood control board in the same manner as withdrawals from other funds of the flood control district.
