Sec. 514. Appropriation to control expenditures.
   No money shall be drawn from the treasury of the County, nor shall any obligation for the expenditure of money by the County be incurred by any officer, board or commission authorized to expend County money, except in pursuance of law or of the appropriation therefor. All fees received by all County officers or employees in connection with their official duties shall be accounted for and paid into the County treasury. Any officer or employee failing to comply with these provisions shall be considered to have vacated their office or employment.
(Res. No. 19-06; Res. No. 30-22)
Editor's note – The 2006 amendment deleted the reference to budgetary allotments. Although former Sec. 714 pertaining to work programs and allotments was eliminated from the Charter in 1988, references to allotments remained throughout various articles and sections of the Charter.
