(55 ILCS 5/6-24005) (from Ch. 34, par. 6-24005)
Sec. 6-24005.
Revision of items.
Subsequent to such public hearing,
or hearings, and before final action on such appropriation bill, the board
of commissioners may revise, alter, increase, or decrease the items
contained therein as prepared in such tentative form, but the aggregate
amount finally appropriated by such appropriation bill, including any
subsequent amendment thereof, from any fund or for any purpose, including
amounts appropriated for judgments and all other unpaid liabilities and all
other purposes for which the board is herein or otherwise by law required
to appropriate, shall not exceed the aggregate amount available in such
fund or for such purpose, as shown by the estimates of the available assets
thereof at the beginning of such fiscal year and of taxes and other current
revenues set forth in the appropriation bill. If the appropriations from
any fund as set forth in such appropriation bill as finally adopted exceed
in the aggregate the maximum amount which such board is herein authorized
to appropriate therefrom, all appropriations made from such fund by such
appropriation bill shall be void and the several amounts appropriated for
current operation and maintenance expenses in the appropriation bill of the
last preceding fiscal year shall be deemed to be appropriated for the
current fiscal year for objects and purposes, respectively, as specified in
such last appropriation bill and the several amounts so appropriated shall
constitute lawful appropriations upon which taxes for the current fiscal
year may be levied pursuant to the provisions of this Code.
