§ 25.9-911. Administration of Budget.

 No payment shall be made or obligation incurred against any appropriation except in accordance with appropriations duly made and unless the Chief Administrative Officer or his designee first certifies that there is a sufficient unencumbered balance in such appropriation and that sufficient funds therefrom are or will be available to cover the claim or meet the obligation when it becomes due or payable. Any authorization of payment or incurring of obligation in violation of the provisions of this Charter shall be void and any payment so made illegal; such action shall be cause for removal of any officer who knowingly authorized or made such payment or incurred such obligation, and he shall also be liable to the Township for any amount so paid. However, except where prohibited by law, nothing in this Charter shall be construed to prevent the making or authorizing of payments or making of contracts for capital improvements to be financed wholly or partly by the issuance of bonds to prevent the making of any contract or lease providing for payments beyond the end of the fiscal year, provided that such action is made or approved by ordinance.
