Section 1. Title 11, chapter 3, article 4, Arizona Revised Statutes, is amended by adding section 11-506, to read:
11-506. County treasurer's management fund; purpose; exemption from lapsing
A. the county treasurer of each county with a population of more than two million persons may establish and maintain a county treasurer's management fund consisting of monies received by the county treasurer from management fees collected pursuant to section 35‑330. The county treasurer may use an additional portion of the management fee that is not subject to appropriation pursuant to section 11‑201 to fund the design, development, operation, maintenance and enhancement of its official agency website that is electronically searchable by the public pursuant to section 41-725.
b. If the county treasurer's portion of the monies in the county treasurer's management fund are insufficient to satisfy the county treasurer's office personnel and operating expenses, including expenses to operate and maintain the website that is electronically searchable by the public pursuant to section 41-725, county general fund monies shall be used to fund the shortfall.
c. Any monies in the county treasurer's management fund remaining unexpended and unencumbered at the end of the fiscal year do not revert to the county general fund.
Sec. 2. Title 35, chapter 2, article 2.1, Arizona Revised Statutes, is amended by adding section 35-330, to read:
