The commission is authorized to fix by resolution the amount and condition of any surety bond to be given by any officer or employee of the city before entering upon the duties of his or her office or employment. Except as may otherwise be required by law, the bond shall be conditioned for the faithful performance of all the duties of his or her office or the officer or employee executing the same. The commission may, at its discretion, increase the amount of any bond or may require bonds of other officers or employees as it may deem expedient; provided, that each member of the board of commissioners shall, before entering upon the duties of his or her office, give a good and sufficient surety bond for each term of office to be executed by a responsible bonding company authorized to do business in Kansas, payable to and for the use and benefit of the city in the sum of five thousand dollars ($5,000.00), conditioned for the faithful discharge of his or her duties, and that he or she will save the city harmless from all loss caused by his or her neglect of duty or malfeasance in office, or for the wilful expenditure or misappropriation of any moneys, property or equities of such city in violation of law; the bonds in each case before being accepted shall be approved by a judge of the district court in and for Butler County; provided further, that the city manager shall give a like bond to be approved by the board of commissioners in the amount of five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) and with the same conditions as is prescribed for the board of commissioners. The cost of such surety bonds required to be given by the board of commissioners, the city manager and all other officers and employees of the city required to furnish such bonds, shall be borne by the city.
