Section 16. Each district road board shall each year set apart at

and if the amount in any one year be too small to be. used for permanent
road improvement, then the same shall be retained and carried forward

roads. And it shall be the duty of each district road board to maintain
and keep in repair any road or part thereof, which has been constructed
in such district under the supervision of the State highway commission,
and shall annually expend on any such road, such amount as necessary
to that end. Such expenditure shall be made upon specifications fur-

authorized, in their discretion, to erect, maintain and operate toll gates,
and demand and collect tolls on such of the roads in the respective magis-
terial districts of said county now opened and constructed or hereafter
opened and constructed, as they deem proper, such tolls only to be ex-
pended in the maintenance and repair of those roads on which toll gates
are established, and shall be collected under such rules and regulations as
may be prescribed by the said board of supervisors, provided, however, that
said rates shall not exceed those fixed by the general law for turnpike
companies.

(b) The board of supervisors shall require and provide for separate
accounts with each of the said roads of all tolls collected thereon, and
shall require statements of all collections, to be made at regular meetings
of said board, of all tolls collected, and likewise for all amounts expended,
said expenditures to be accompanied with proper vouchers, which
accounts, when approved by the board of supervisors shall be filed with
the clerk of that board.

(c) Upon establishing any toll road or roads the said board of super-
visors shall prescribe rules and regulations under which the tolls shall
be collected and disbursed, and the person or persons authorized to collect
such tolls shall enter into bond before collecting any money, before the
Judge of the circuit court of Fairfax county, Virginia, either in term or
vacation, in such amount as may be prescribed by the said judge, with
approved security, conditioned for the faithful performance of his duties.

(d) All acts or parts of acts, including the special road law for
Fairfax county, to the extent that the same may conflict herewith, are
hereby repealed.
