Fund Administration. A. Deposit of Funds. Money received by officers and employees shall be deposited promptly to the county's account in depositories authorized by law. B. Creation of Funds. In addition to the funds established by this charter, the mayor, with the approval of the council, may establish other funds when necessary and when no appropriate class of funds exists. Nothing in this section shall preclude the council from introducing and adopting other funds by ordinance. C. Public Access, Open Space. Natural Resources Preservation Fund. (1) In adopting each fiscal year's budget and capital program, the council shall appropriate a minimum of one-half of one percent of the certified real property tax revenues to a fund known as the public access, open space, natural resources preservation fund. The moneys in this fund shall be utilized for purchasing or otherwise acquiring lands or property entitlements —and the corresponding maintenance of those lands or Property entitlements —for land conservation purposes in the county of Kauai for the following purposes: public outdoor recreation and education, including access to beaches and mountains; preservation of historic or culturally important land areas and sites; protection of significant habitats or ecosystems, including buffer zones; preserving forests, beaches, coastal areas and agricultural lands; protecting watershed lands to preserve water quality and water supply; conserving land in order to reduce erosion, floods, landslides, and- runoff; improving disabled and public access to, and enjoyment of, public land, and open space; acquiring disabled and public access to public land, and open space. (2) The moneys in this fund may also be used for the payment of interest, principal, and premium, if any, due with respect to bonds issued pursuant to Sections 3.13, 3.14, or 3.15, Charter, in whole or in part — for the purposes enumerated in paragraph (1) of this section and for the payment of costs associated with the purchase, redemption or refunding of such bonds. (3) At any given time, no more than five percent (5%) of this fund shall be used for administrative expenses. (4) Any balance remaining in this fund at the end of any fiscal year shall not lapse, but shall remain in the fund, accumulating from year to year. The moneys in this fund shall not be used for any purpose except those listed in this section. The Council shall by ordinance establish procedures for the administration and priorities for the expenditure of moneys in this fund." "Section 19.08. Administration and Enforcement of the Annual Budget Ordinance. A. The enactment of the annual budget ordinance shall constitute an appropriation of the sums specified therein for the purposes and from the funds indicated. Such appropriation shall be considered valid only for the fiscal year for which made, and any part of such appropriation which is not encumbered or expended shall lapse at the end of the fiscal year, except that appropriations to the fund established by paragraph C of section 19.15 shall not lapse, but shall remain in the fund, accumulating from year-to-year. Agencies authorized to make expenditures under the annual budget ordinance may proceed without other authority from the council to incur obligations or make expenditures for proper purposes to the extent that the moneys are available and as allotted. B. Immediately following the enactment of the annual budget ordinance, the heads of all agencies shall submit to the director of finance schedules showing the expenditures anticipated for each quarter of the fiscal year. C. The approval of an expenditure schedule by the mayor shall constitute a budgetary allotment which shall, unless a revision thereof is approved by the mayor, be binding upon such agencies and the director of finance shall approve or issue no requisition, purchase order, voucher or warrant that is not in accordance with such allotment. D. The allotment herein provided may be altered at any time by the mayor. The mayor shall direct appropriate revisions in allotments to keep expenditures within the revenues received or anticipated. E. Any part of an allotment which is not expended or encumbered shall be deemed re -allotted for the next allotment period. F. The mayor may at any time transfer an unencumbered appropriation balance or portion thereof within a division or between divisions in the same department. Transfers between departments, boards or commissions shall be made only by the council by ordinance adopted pursuant to Section 19.07B, upon the recommendations of the mayor." "Section 19.12. Lapse of Appropriations. Every appropriation shall lapse at the close of the fiscal year to the extent that it has not been expended or encumbered, except appropriations to the fund established by paragraph C of section 19.15 and appropriations for capital budget items where any portion of said appropriation has been expended." These Amendments to Sections 19.15, 19.08, and 19.12 of The Charter of the County of Kauai were duly adopted by the voters at the November 2002 General Election. Lihue, Hawaii Peter A.
