85-3-423. County budget waived for first appropriation -- conditions. The provisions of 7-6-2342 apply if an emergency condition requiring prompt expenditure occurs immediately after an authority has been created by resolution of the board of county commissioners and after certification of a mill levy by the authority. In that case and only for the initial or first appropriation for the authority, the county commissioners may appropriate, from money not otherwise appropriated in the general fund, money necessary to carry out the provisions of this part. However, the appropriation may not exceed an amount equal to the amount that would be raised by a 2-mill levy upon the taxable valuation of the property in the county.
