N.J. Stat. § 40A:4-85: Power to change title or text of appropriation

The director may, at the request of the governing body, make such correction of the title, text or amount of any item of appropriation appearing in the adopted budget only as shall be necessary to make said item of appropriation available for the specific purpose or purposes required by the local unit. To this end, the director may limit or approve adjustment of items of appropriations, but no item of appropriation required for debt service, contingent expenses, deferred charges, statutory expenditures, judgments or reserves shall be so reduced or limited.
