No member of the Town Board, officer, elected or appointed, or employee may seek reimbursement for actual and necessary expenses incurred in excess of $100 and as budgeted for attending conventions, meetings, conferences or schools unless attendance by such person(s) has been authorized by a resolution of the Town Board, adopted and entered in the minutes of the meeting of the Town Board prior to such attendance, and unless there is submitted to the Town Board an itemized and verified voucher setting forth items of expense and the information required by § 7-3 for which reimbursement is sought.
A.
In its discretion, the Town Board, pursuant to General Municipal Law § 77-b, Subdivision 6, in connection with the resolution authorizing the attendance, may authorize the advance to such person(s) of a sum of money for estimated actual and necessary expenses.

In the event that such voucher is not submitted within
the time prescribed above or in the event that any such excess advance is
not refunded within the time prescribed above, and in the event that the Town
Board does not extend the time prescribed therefor, there shall be deducted
from the salary, wages or other money owed by the municipality to such person
an amount equal to the entire advance or the excess advance as the case may
be.
