  village, in a bank or trust company designated by the board of trustees,
  all monies received by him;
    c. he may sign checks with the facsimile signature of  the  treasurer,
  as  reproduced  by  a machine or device commonly known as a checksigner,
  when authorized by resolution or local law of the board of trustees;
    d. pay out monies in  the  village  treasury  only  as  authorized  by
  sections  5-524  and  5-526  of  this  chapter, unless in pursuance of a

  section 5-526 shall be by check;
    e. file in the office of the village clerk, within  sixty  days  after
  the  end  of the fiscal year, a statement showing in detail all revenues
  and expenditures during the previous fiscal  year  and  the  outstanding
  indebtedness  of  the  village  as of the end of the fiscal year, except
  that the village treasurer, if authorized by the board of trustees, may,
  within the time period prescribed  in  section  thirty  of  the  general
  municipal  law,  submit to the village clerk a copy of the annual report
  required by section thirty  of  the  general  municipal  law,  provided,
  however,  that  if the time for the filing of the annual report has been
  extended by the state comptroller as provided in the said statute,  then
  the  time  for  submitting  a  copy  of  the report to the village clerk
  similarly shall be extended. The board of  trustees  shall,  within  ten
  days,  cause  to  be published in the official newspaper either a notice
  that the annual financial statement has been filed and is available  for
  inspection  or  a  summary  of  such statement in a form approved by the
  state comptroller, with an endorsement thereon that details thereof  are
  on  file in the office of the village clerk. The board of trustees shall
  audit, or cause to be audited by an officer or employee of  the  village
  or  by  a certified public accountant or a public accountant engaged for
  that purpose, such report and supporting records;
    f. shall also perform such other  duties  not  inconsistent  with  his
  office as shall be determined by resolution or local law of the board of
  trustees.
