A county clerk may invest any money collected on behalf of the state until such time as the money is required to be remitted to the state. The county clerk shall invest the state money only in those investments authorized by this section and payable within such time as the proceeds shall be required to be remitted to the state. Any interest that accrues on moneys invested pursuant to this subdivision shall be payable in equal shares to the state and to the county provided, however, that any fees or service charges associated with the investment shall be paid from such interest. 6. Except as may otherwise be provided in a contract with bond or note holders, any moneys of a political subdivision authorized to be invested pursuant to this section may be commingled for investment purposes; provided, however, that any investment of commingled moneys shall be payable or redeemable at the option of the owner within such time as the proceeds shall be needed to meet expenditures for which such moneys were obtained or as otherwise specifically provided in this section. The separate identity of the sources of such funds shall at all times be maintained and income received on moneys commingled for the purpose of investment shall be credited on a pro rata basis to the fund or account from which the moneys were invested. 7. The chief fiscal officer of each local government shall maintain or cause to be maintained a proper record of all books, notes, securities or other evidences of indebtedness held by or for such subdivision for the purpose of investment. Such record shall at least identify the security, the fund for which held, the place where kept and entries shall be made therein showing date of sale or other disposition and the amount realized therefrom.
