The board may amend the budget to make supplemental\n\nappropriations to any fund up to the amount of additional revenues\n\nwhich are available for current expenses as shown by a fund balance\n\nfor the fund due to:\n\n1. Revenues received from sources not anticipated in the budget\n\nfor that year;\n\n2. Revenues received from anticipated sources but in excess of\n\nthe budget estimates therefor; or\n\n3. Unexpended unencumbered cash balances on hand at the end of\n\nthe preceding fiscal year which had not been anticipated in the\n\nbudget. Any appropriation authorizing the creating of an\n\nindebtedness shall be governed by the applicable provisions of\n\nArticle X of the Constitution of the State of Oklahoma.\n\nB. If at any time during the budget year it appears probable\n\nthat revenues available will be insufficient to meet the amount\n\nappropriated, or that due to unforeseen emergencies there is\n\ntemporarily insufficient money in a particular fund to meet the\n\nrequirements of appropriation for the fund, the board shall take\n\naction as it deems necessary. For that purpose, it may amend the\n\nbudget to reduce one or more appropriations, but no appropriation\n\nfor debt service may be reduced and no appropriation may be reduced\n\nby more than the amount of the unencumbered and unexpended balance\n\nthereof. No transfer shall be made from the debt service fund to\n\nany other fund except as may be permitted by the terms of the bond\n\nissue or applicable law.\n\nC. A budget amendment as provided in this section authorizing\n\nsupplemental appropriations or a decrease or change in appropriation\n\nor funds shall be adopted at a meeting of the board and filed with\n\nthe district, the county excise board of each county in which the\n\ndistrict is located and the State Auditor and Inspector.","path":["OK Code","Title 19"],"source_url":"https://www.oklegislature.gov/OK_Statutes/CompleteTitles/os19.pdf","current_through":"2026-08-14","vintage":"open-us-law v2026.08, retrieved 2026-09-14","retrieved_at":"2026-09-14T18:32:36Z","sha256":"64d603f88b5ea60aa18eaeed7e7df48fccd66319c6f97bf155b3172fbb303ee3","source_id":"us-ok","stale":false,"prev":"us-ok/okla.-stat.-tit.-19-19-1720","next":"us-ok/okla.-stat.-tit.-19-19-1722"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
