(b) The county commissioners may annually appropriate moneys from the general county funds, not to exceed ten per centum of the county operating budget, to be paid into the capital reserve fund or place in the fund any moneys received from the sale, lease or other disposition of any county property or from any other source unless received or acquired for a particular purpose. The fund shall be controlled, invested, reinvested and administered and the moneys therein and income from such moneys expended for any of the purposes for which the fund is created, in such manner as may be determined by the county commissioners. The money in the fund, when invested, shall be invested in a manner consistent with the provisions of section 1706 relating to the investment of county funds generally. This subsection shall not be construed to limit the powers of the county to the use of moneys in the capital reserve fund in making lawful capital expenditures.
