It is hereby ordained by Council that on receipt of reimbursing money
paid into the City Treasury, the City Treasurer on notice from the Director
of any city Department from whose appropriations such money has been expended,
shall certify to the City Controller the sum of such reimbursing money. Upon
approval by the City Controller of the accounting in such case, he shall add
the amount of the reimbursing sum to the appropriation account originally
involved, and it shall be subject to reexpenditure for the purposes of such
appropriation.
The provisions of this chapter shall apply both to funds of the general
city accounts and to special funds such as those which are the proceeds of
bond issues, or other specially established funds; but as to general city
budget accounts of any current year, no sum which shall be constituted of
reimbursement of expenditure that was made out of closed appropriation accounts
of a prior year shall be applicable as a reappropriation to the budget of
the current year.
Nothing in this chapter shall be held to permit reappropriation of moneys
received as earnings or rentals of city property or facilities; provided,
however, that should the appropriation for the upkeep and improvement of Nay
Aug Park in any year be an amount less than a sum sufficient to include
all revenue derived from concessions granted by the city for the use of facilities
of that portion of the park conveyed to the city by the Lackawanna Iron and
Coal Company, then the excess of such revenue in any year over the amount
of the appropriation shall be reappropriated to the upkeep of the park.
