  8 38    Sec. 7.  CHILD DAY CARE PROGRAM.
  8 39    1.  The general assembly considers child day care
  8 40 to be an important service for employers, employees,
  8 41 and their children.  Employer-supported child care can
  8 42 have a positive impact upon employee morale and
  8 43 retention and can positively affect the children who
  8 44 are receiving child care services.  High quality child
  8 45 care is of significant value to employers.  It is
  8 46 believed that a quality, on-site child care program
  8 47 available to the children of state employees will
  8 48 provide a model for other employers in this state to
  8 49 emulate.
  8 50    2.  a.  The director of general services shall

  9  2 based child day care program available to public

  9  5 the steering committee description contained in this
  9  6 paragraph and shall be submitted to the general
  9  7 assembly on or before March 1, 1996.  The legislative
  9  8 council is requested to appoint a capitol complex
  9  9 child day care program steering committee to provide
  9 10 direction to the department of general services in
  9 11 developing facility plans, establishing the
  9 12 facilities, developing operation policies, contracting
  9 13 with a vendor to operate the program, and other
  9 14 decisions involving establishment and operation of the
  9 15 program.  The steering committee shall utilize the
  9 16 March 1990 consultant report to the capitol complex ad
  9 17 hoc committee on child care, particularly the
  9 18 intermediate quality recommendations, in its decision
  9 19 making.
  9 20    b.  The steering committee membership shall include
  9 21 members of the general assembly; representatives of
  9 22 the departments of general services, personnel, human
  9 23 services, and education; employees officed at the
  9 24 capitol complex who purchase child day care services;
  9 25 a representative of the state board of regents center
  9 26 for early childhood education; a representative of the
  9 27 Iowa state university of science and technology early
  9 28 childhood education programs; and other persons
  9 29 knowledgeable concerning child day care programs.
  9 30    3.  In consultation with the steering committee,
  9 31 the director of the department of general services

 30 40 SAFE DEPOSIT BOXES.
 30 41    1.  A credit union may lease safe deposit boxes for
 30 42 the storage of property on terms and conditions
 30 43 prescribed by it.  Such terms and conditions shall not
 30 44 bind any person to whom the credit union does not give
 30 45 notice of the terms and conditions by delivery of a

 30 47 and conditions.  A credit union may limit its
 30 48 liability provided such limitations are set forth in
 30 49 the lease and agreement in at least the same size and
 30 50 type as the other substantive provisions of the
 31  1 contract.
 31  2    2.  The lease and agreement of a safe deposit box
 31  3 may provide that evidence tending to prove that
 31  4 property was left in a safe deposit box upon the last
 31  5 entry by the member or the member's authorized agent,
 31  6 and that the property or any part of the property was
 31  7 found missing upon subsequent entry, is not sufficient
 31  8 to raise a presumption that the property was lost by
 31  9 any negligence or wrongdoing for which the credit
 31 10 union is responsible, or put upon the credit union the
 31 11 burden of proof that the alleged loss was not the
 31 12 fault of the credit union.
 31 13    3.  A credit union may lease a safe deposit box to
 31 14 a minor.  A credit union may deal with a minor with
 31 15 respect to a safe deposit box lease and agreement
 31 16 without the consent of a parent, guardian, or
 31 17 conservator and with the same effect as though the
 31 18 minor were an adult.  Any action of the minor with
 31 19 respect to such safe deposit box lease and agreement
 31 20 is binding on the minor with the same effect as though
 31 21 the minor were an adult.
 31 22    4.  A credit union which has on file a power of
 31 23 attorney of a member covering a safe deposit box lease
 31 24 and agreement, which has not been revoked by the
 31 25 member, shall incur no liability as a result of
 31 26 continuing to honor the provisions of the power of
 31 27 attorney in the event of the death or incompetence of
 31 28 the donor of the power of attorney until the credit
 31 29 union receives written notice of the death, or written
 31 30 notice of adjudication by a court of the incompetence
 31 31 of the member and the appointment of a guardian or
 31 32 conservator.
 31 33    Sec. 55.  NEW SECTION.  533.49A  SEARCH PROCEDURE

 31 36 court order or, if no order has been served upon the
 31 37 credit union, the spouse, a parent, an adult
 31 38 descendant, or a person named as executor in a copy of
 31 39 a purported will produced by the person, to open and
 31 40 examine the contents of a safe deposit box leased by a
 31 41 decedent, or to examine any property delivered by a
 31 42 decedent for safekeeping, in the presence of an
 31 43 officer of the credit union.  The credit union, if
 31 44 requested by such person, and upon the credit union's
 31 45 receipt of the request, shall deliver:
 31 46    1.  Any writing purported to be a will of the
 31 47 decedent to the court having jurisdiction of the
 31 48 decedent's estate.
 31 49    2.  Any writing purported to be a deed to a burial
 31 50 plot, or to give burial instructions, to the person
 32  1 making the request for a search.
 32  2    3.  Any document purported to be an insurance
 32  3 policy on the life of the decedent to the beneficiary
 32  4 named in the policy.  A credit union shall prepare and
 32  5 keep a list of any contents delivered pursuant to this
 32  6 section describing the nature of the property and the
 32  7 individual to whom delivered, and place a copy of the
 32  8 list in the safe deposit box from which the contents
 32  9 were removed.
 32 10    Sec. 56.  NEW SECTION.  533.49B  ADVERSE CLAIMS TO
 32 11 PROPERTY IN SAFE DEPOSIT AND SAFEKEEPING.
 32 12    1.  A credit union shall not be required, in the
 32 13 absence of a court order or indemnity required by this
 32 14 section, to recognize any claim to, or claim of
 32 15 authority to exercise control over, property held in
 32 16 safe deposit or property held for safekeeping pursuant
 32 17 to section 533.49D made by a person or persons other
 32 18 than the following:
 32 19    a.  The member in whose name the property is held
 32 20 by the credit union.
 32 21    b.  An individual or group of individuals who are
 32 22 authorized to have access to the safe deposit box, or
 32 23 to the property held for safekeeping, pursuant to a
 32 24 certified corporate resolution or other written
 32 25 arrangement with the member, currently on file with
 32 26 the credit union, which has not been revoked by valid
 32 27 corporate action in the case of a corporation, or by a
 32 28 valid agreement or other valid action appropriate for
 32 29 the form of legal organization of any other member, of
 32 30 which the credit union has received notice and which
 32 31 is not the subject of a dispute known to the credit
 32 32 union as to its original validity.  The safe deposit
 32 33 and safekeeping account records of a credit union
 32 34 shall be presumptive evidence as to the identity of
 32 35 the member on whose behalf the property is held.
 32 36    2.  To require a credit union to recognize an
 32 37 adverse claim to, or adverse claim of authority to
 32 38 control, property held in safe deposit or for
 32 39 safekeeping, whoever makes the claim must do either of
 32 40 the following:
 32 41    a.  Obtain and serve on the credit union an
 32 42 appropriate court order or judicial process directed
 32 43 to the credit union, restraining any action with
 32 44 respect to the property until further order of the
 32 45 court or instructing the credit union to deliver the
 32 46 property, in whole or in part, as indicated in the
 32 47 order or process.
 32 48    b.  Deliver to the credit union a bond, in form and
 32 49 amount with sureties satisfactory to the credit union,
 32 50 indemnifying the credit union against any liability,
 33  1 loss, or expense which the credit union might incur
 33  2 because of its refusal to deliver the property to any
 33  3 person described in subsection 1, paragraph "a" or
 33  4 "b".
 33  5    Sec. 57.  NEW SECTION.  533.49C  REMEDIES AND
 33  6 PROCEEDINGS FOR NONPAYMENT OF RENT ON SAFE DEPOSIT
 33  7 BOX.
 33  8    1.  A credit union has a lien upon the contents of
 33  9 a safe deposit box for past due rentals and any
 33 10 expense incurred in opening the safe deposit box,
 33 11 replacement of the locks on the safe deposit box, and
 33 12 of a sale made pursuant to this section.  If the
 33 13 rental of a safe deposit box is not paid within six
 33 14 months from the day the rental is due, at any time
 33 15 after the six months and while the rental remains
 33 16 unpaid, the credit union shall mail a notice by
 33 17 restricted certified mail to the member at the
 33 18 member's last known address as shown upon the records
 33 19 of the credit union, stating that if the amount due
 33 20 for the rental is not paid on or before a specified
 33 21 day, which shall be at least thirty days after the
 33 22 date of mailing such notice, the credit union will
 33 23 remove the contents of the safe deposit box and hold
 33 24 the contents for the account of the member.
 33 25    2.  If the rental for the safe deposit box has not
 33 26 been paid after the expiration of the period specified
 33 27 in a notice mailed pursuant to subsection 1, the
 33 28 credit union, in the presence of two of its officers,
 33 29 may cause the box to be opened and the contents
 33 30 removed.  An inventory of the contents of the safe
 33 31 deposit box shall be made by the two officers present
 33 32 and the contents held by the credit union for the
 33 33 account of the member.
 33 34    3.  If the contents are not claimed within two
 33 35 years after their removal from the safe deposit box,
 33 36 the credit union may proceed to sell so much of the
 33 37 contents as is necessary to pay the past due rentals
 33 38 and expense incurred in opening the safe deposit box,
 33 39 replacement of the locks on the safe deposit box, and
 33 40 the sale of the contents.  The sale shall be held at
 33 41 the time and place specified in a notice published
 33 42 prior to the sale once each week for two successive
 33 43 weeks in a newspaper of general circulation published
 33 44 in the city or unincorporated area in which the credit
 33 45 union has its principal place of business, or if there
 33 46 is none, a newspaper of general circulation published
 33 47 in the county, or in a county adjoining the county, in
 33 48 which the credit union has its principal place of
 33 49 business.  A copy of the published notice shall be
 33 50 mailed to the member at the member's last known
 34  1 address as shown upon the records of the credit union.
 34  2 The notice shall contain the name of the member and
 34  3 need only describe the contents of the safe deposit
 34  4 box in general terms.  The contents of any number of
 34  5 safe deposit boxes may be sold under one notice of
 34  6 sale and the cost of the sale apportioned ratably
 34  7 among the several safe deposit box members involved.
 34  8 At the time and place designated in the notice the
 34  9 contents taken from each respective safe deposit box
 34 10 shall be sold separately to the highest bidder for
 34 11 cash and the proceeds of each sale applied to the
 34 12 rentals and expenses due to the credit union and the
 34 13 residue from any such sale shall be held by the credit
 34 14 union for the account of the member or members.  An
 34 15 amount held as proceeds from such sale shall be
 34 16 credited with interest at the customary annual rate
 34 17 for savings accounts at the credit union, or in lieu
 34 18 thereof, at the customary rate of interest in the
 34 19 community where such proceeds are held.  The crediting
 34 20 of interest does not activate the account to avoid an
 34 21 abandonment as unclaimed property under chapter 556.
 34 22    4.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this section,
 34 23 shares, bonds, or other securities which, at the time
 34 24 of a sale pursuant to subsection 3, are listed on an
 34 25 established stock exchange in the United States, shall
 34 26 not be sold at public sale but may be sold through an
 34 27 established stock exchange.  Upon making a sale of any
 34 28 such securities, an officer of the credit union shall
 34 29 execute and attach to the securities so sold an
 34 30 affidavit reciting facts showing that the securities
 34 31 were sold pursuant to this section and that the credit
 34 32 union has complied with the provisions of this
 34 33 section.  The affidavit constitutes sufficient
 34 34 authority to any corporation whose shares are sold or
 34 35 to any registrar or transfer agent of such corporation
 34 36 to cancel the certificates representing the shares to
 34 37 the purchaser of the shares, and to any registrar,
 34 38 trustee, or transfer agent of registered bonds or
 34 39 other securities, to register any such bonds or other
 34 40 securities in the name of the purchaser of the bonds
 34 41 or other securities.
 34 42    5.  The proceeds of any sale made pursuant to this
 34 43 section, after the payment of any amounts with respect
 34 44 to which the credit union has a lien, any property
 34 45 which was not offered for sale and property which,
 34 46 although offered for sale, was not sold, shall be
 34 47 retained by the credit union until such time as the
 34 48 property is presumed abandoned according to section
 34 49 556.2, and shall be handled pursuant to chapter 556.
 34 50    Sec. 58.  NEW SECTION.  533.49D  AUTHORITY TO
 35  1 RECEIVE PROPERTY FOR SAFEKEEPING.
 35  2    1.  A credit union may accept property for
 35  3 safekeeping if, except in the case of night
 35  4 depositories, the credit union issues a receipt for
 35  5 the property.  A credit union accepting property for
 35  6 safekeeping shall purchase and maintain reasonable
 35  7 insurance coverage to ensure against loss incurred in
 35  8 connection with the acceptance of property for
 35  9 safekeeping.  Property held for safekeeping shall not
 35 10 be commingled with the property of the credit union or
 35 11 the property of others.
 35 12    2.  A credit union has a lien upon any property
 35 13 held for safekeeping and for expenses incurred in any
 35 14 sale made pursuant to this subsection.  If the charge
 35 15 for safekeeping of property is not paid within six
 35 16 months from the day the charge is due, at any time
 35 17 after the six months and while the charge remains
 35 18 unpaid, the credit union may mail a notice to the
 35 19 member at the member's last known address as shown
 35 20 upon the records of the credit union, stating that if
 35 21 the amount due is not paid on or before a specified
 35 22 day, which shall be at least thirty days after the
 35 23 date of mailing the notice, the credit union will
 35 24 remove the property from safekeeping and hold the
 35 25 property for the account of the member.  After the
 35 26 expiration of the period specified in the notice, if
