§ 5.4. Adoption of budget.
After the public hearing as required by law the board may make such changes in the budget as it may determine, except that no item of expenditure for debt service shall be reduced or omitted below what the county is obligated to pay. The operating budget and capital improvements budget shall be adopted by resolution by the vote of at least a majority of all members of the board not later than May 1st of each year. Appropriations in addition to those contained in the general appropriation ordinance may be made by the board only if there is available in the general fund an unencumbered and unappropriated sum sufficient to meet such appropriations.
