All claims against watershed districts shall be paid by warrants or orders drawn on the district secretary-treasurer, signed by the chair of the district and countersigned by its secretary-treasurer. When warrants or orders have been issued and delivered, they may be presented to the treasurer of the watershed district. If necessary, the treasurer shall endorse them “not paid for want of funds.” These orders or warrants shall be registered by the secretary-treasurer in order of presentation and shall draw interest per year at a rate negotiated by the parties from the date of registration. They shall be registered by the district secretary-treasurer in anticipated receipt of watershed district taxes or assessments due the district.
