Sec. 1. (a) A township trustee may not, acting as administrator of township assistance, disburse any money or incur any obligation in the furnishing of township assistance in excess of the amount appropriated for that purpose.
(b) Appropriations for township assistance purposes must be made in the manner provided by law for appropriations for other township purposes.
(c) When preparing the annual budget for a township, the township trustee and the township board shall set out in the budget the amount of expenditures estimated to be reasonably required for current township assistance in the following calendar year. If the amount provided for township assistance in the annual budget as finally adopted and approved is insufficient to meet the requirements for that purpose, additional appropriations may be made in the manner provided by law for the making of additional appropriations by townships for other purposes.
