      (b)   All securities, security entitlements and financial assets securing the deposits of any municipal corporation or quasi-municipal corporation shall be deposited in a securities account with a bank incorporated under the laws of this state, or organized under the laws of the United States or another state and which has a main or branch office in this state, a trust company incorporated under the laws of this state or another state, the federal home loan bank of Topeka or with the state treasurer pursuant to a written custodial agreement and a receipt taken therefor with one copy going to the municipal corporation or quasi-municipal corporation making the public deposit and one copy going to the bank, savings and loan association or savings bank which has secured such public deposits. The receipt shall identify the securities, security entitlements and financial assets which are subject to a security interest to secure payment of the deposits of the municipal corporation or quasi-municipal corporation.

The security agreement and the custodial agreement shall be in writing, executed by all parties thereto, maintained as part of their official records, and except for the municipal corporations or quasi-municipal corporation, approved by their boards of directors or their loan committees, which approvals shall be reflected in the minutes of the boards or committees.
