SECTION 40.   PRELIMINARY APPROPRIATIONS
   EDITOR'S NOTE: The provisions of this section were repealed by the electors on May 4, 2010.
SECTION 41.   TRANSFER OF APPROPRIATIONS
   Upon the written recommendation of the Mayor, the Council may at any time transfer an unencumbered balance of an appropriation made for the use of one department, division or purpose to any other department, division or purpose; but no such transfer shall be made of revenues or earnings of any non-tax supported public utility to any other purpose.
SECTION 42.   CURRENT REVENUE
   Any accruing revenue of the City, not appropriated as hereinbefore provided, and any balances at any time remaining after the purposes of the appropriation shall have been satisfied or abandoned may from time to time be appropriated or re-appropriated by the Council to such uses as will not conflict with any use for which such revenues specifically accrued, unless otherwise authorized by federal or state law. (Amended 11-2-10)
SECTION 43.   LIMITATION OF APPROPRIATIONS
   No moneys shall be drawn from the Treasury of the City, nor shall any obligation for the expenditure of money be incurred, except pursuant to appropriations made by the Council; and whenever an appropriation is so made the Clerk shall forthwith give notice to the Auditor. At the end of each year all unexpended balances of appropriations shall revert to the respective funds from which the same were appropriated and shall then be subject to future appropriations; but appropriations may be made in furtherance of improvements or other objects or work of the City which will not be completed within the current year.
SECTION 44.   USE OF MONEYS APPROPRIATED; SUPERVISION OF DEPARTMENTAL EXPENDITURES
   Moneys appropriated as hereinbefore provided shall not be used for other purposes than those designated in the appropriation ordinance without authority from the Council. The Mayor and the Auditor shall supervise all departmental expenditures, and shall keep such expenditures within the appropriation.
SECTION 44.5.   CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUND
   There is hereby established a special fund to be known as the Capital Improvement Fund. Money paid into the Capital Improvement Fund shall be used only for:
   (a)   Payment of the costs of constructing or acquiring (whether by outright purchase, lease, or lease-purchase and irrespective of whether payment is made in installments or in a lump sum) of capital improvements; or
   (b)   Payment of debt service on any bonds or notes issued by the City to finance the construction, purchase or acquisition of capital improvements.
   As used in this section, "capital improvement" means any property, assets or improvement having an estimated life or period of usefulness of one year or more, and includes, but is not limited to, real estate, buildings, personal property, and interests in real estate, buildings, personal property, equipment, furnishings, site improvements, and reconstruction rehabilitation, renovation, installation, improvement, enlargement and extension of property, assets or improvements having an estimated life or period of usefulness of one year or more.
