Terms Used In Indiana Code 36-9-30-16

  • Appropriation: The provision of funds, through an annual appropriations act or a permanent law, for federal agencies to make payments out of the Treasury for specified purposes. The formal federal spending process consists of two sequential steps: authorization
     (b) The board may certify the items of expense to the fiscal officer of the unit, who shall immediately draw a warrant or warrants to be paid out of the unappropriated part of the general fund of the unit, without a special appropriation being made. If the unit has no unappropriated money in its general fund, the fiscal officer shall recommend to the fiscal body of the unit:

(1) the temporary transfer from other funds of a sufficient amount to meet the items of expense; or

(2) the making of a temporary loan for that purpose.

The fiscal body shall immediately make the transfer or authorize the temporary loan.

     (c) The fund or funds from which the payments are made shall be fully reimbursed and repaid out of the first proceeds of the sale of revenue bonds, and before any other disbursements are made from those proceeds. The amount advanced to pay preliminary expenses is a first charge against the proceeds resulting from the sale of the revenue bonds until it has been repaid.
