Section 5-1.4-5-4 - Required debt service reserve; appropriation to assure maintenance; application of funds; excess money(a) In order to assure the maintenance of the required debt service reserve in any reserve fund, the legislative body of the city may annually appropriate to the bank for deposit in one (1) or more of the funds the sum, certified by the chairman of the board to the legislative body, that is necessary to restore one (1) or more of the funds to an amount equal to the required debt service reserve. The chairman annually, before December 1, shall make and deliver to the legislative body a certificate stating the sum required to restore the funds to that amount. Nothing in this subsection creates a debt or liability of the city to make any appropriation.(b) All amounts received on account of money appropriated by the legislative body of the city to any reserve fund shall be held and applied in accordance with section 1(b) of this chapter. However, at the end of each fiscal year, if the amount in any reserve fund exceeds the required debt service reserve, any amount representing earnings or income received on account of any money appropriated to the reserve fund that exceeds the expenses of the bank for that fiscal year may be transferred to the general fund of the city.As added by P.L. 42-1985, SEC.1.
