Subject to Sections 116.026 (Applicants Outside County) and 116.028 (Successor Bank as County Depository), the commissioners court may select a federally insured bank or banks located outside the county to serve as the depository under this subchapter if:

(1)

for any reason no bank located in the county applies to be designated as the depository;

(2)

an application is not made for the entire amount of the registry funds;

(3)

the commissioners court rejects all the applications submitted;

(4)

a depository selected by the commissioners court fails to qualify;

(5)

a depository becomes insolvent; or

(b)

Before selecting a depository under Subsection (a), the commissioners court shall advertise for applications from banks located in this state by publishing a notice of the selection once a week for two consecutive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation published in the county.
