ington, cancelling certain checks issued by the
City of Kent and not presented for payment with-
in one year.
WHEREAS RC\oiJ' 39. 56 provides for the cancellation by
cities ~f warrants not presented for payment within one year of

rather than warrants, and
WHEREAS there are currently outstanding many bank
checks which have not been presented for payment even though one
year or more has elapsed since their issue, and
WHEREAS said bank checks would not be honored if pre-
sented for payment because of current banking practices which
treat bank checks older than 6 months as "stale'' (i.e., not pre-
sented for payment "within the normal course of business"), NOW
