ATTORNEY GENERAL \ 6& to cemeteries or fire stations. It follows, therefore, that a board of town- ship trustees may not lawfully pay the premium on a policy of public liability insurance covering cemeteries or fire stations. Since a board of townsliip trustees is liable in its official capacity for damages resultiiig from negligeiice in tlie construction, maintenance aiid repair of township roads, it follows that the towilship trustees may lawfully pay the premium on a policy of public ]iability itisurance covering such roads. Accordingly; it is my opinion and you are advised that the statutory ]ialii]ity of Sb011'(1 of township trustees uncler Section 5571.10, Pevised Code, is limited to roads, road machitiery, or equiprnent used wi[li rela- tion to roads, and does not eztend to cemeteries or fire stations; thus, such a board is without authority to procure liability insurance ivith respect ? to its cetneteries and fire stations, but may obtain such insuraiice with a regard to its roads.
