§1938. Parish appropriations for multiparish juvenile detention homes; budgets
A. The governing authorities of the parishes within the multiparish juvenile detention district shall annually appropriate, in proportion to the assessed valuation of the property of the parishes, an amount which, when added to the revenues of the multiparish juvenile detention home, will be sufficient to properly operate the multiparish juvenile detention home and provide the necessary operational equipment, services and custodial care. The first budget shall equal the amount expended for the keeping, feeding, clothing, care, supervision, schooling, and maintenance of juveniles detained pursuant to orders of city and/or district courts within the area, and thereafter the annual budget shall be estimated on the basis of the budget of the preceding year.
B. The revenues derived from any operations of the multiparish juvenile district or from any other source not needed for the succeeding calendar year may be paid into the general fund of the governing authorities of the parishes composing the multiparish juvenile detention district in proportion to the assessment of the parishes as shown by the last filed assessment roll of each.
