The funds collected by the Board of Public Works under the proceedings herein provided for, shall be paid by said Board of Public Works, as fast as collected, to the City Treasurer, who shall place the same in a special fund, as designated by the City Controller, and payment shall be made, out of such special fund only for the purpose provided for in this article. To expedite the making of any such improvement the City Council may at any time, transfer into said special fund, out of any money in the General Fund, such sums as it may deem necessary, and the sums so transferred shall be deemed as a loan to such special fund, and shall be repaid out of the proceeds of the assessments provided for in this article.
If for any reason there shall be a deficiency in the funds derived from the assessment for any improvement under this article, including all incidental expenses thereof, the City Council may meet such deficiency by appropriation out of the General Fund or by ordering a supplemental assessment in the same manner and as nearly as may be as the preceding assessment except that protests may only be made against such supplemental assessment. Any unexpended balance remaining in the special fund provided for in Section 6.237 hereof, at the expiration of the period specified in the Ordinance of Intention, shall be credited to the fund to be raised for the next ensuing period of the improvement. Whenever the City Council, in its discretion, does not reorder the said improvement to be made, any such unexpended balance may be retained in such fund to be used by the Department of Public Works to defray the costs and expenses of maintaining such trees until such unexpended balance is exhausted.
