§ 220-15

Distributions from township general fund for benefit of senior citizens. Whenever the electors attending an annual or special township meeting determine that the general township fund of the township contains funds not derived from a township tax levy that are not needed for township purposes during the remainder of the then current fiscal year, the electors may, by a resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the electors attending the meeting, direct that all or any portion of the funds be distributed to a for profit (or not for profit) and non-sectarian organization that provides services or facilities to the township's older inhabitants or to the board of managers of a township community building to be used for the operation and maintenance of a non-sectarian activity and guidance center for the older inhabitants of the township. The electors attending the annual or special township meeting may also, by a resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of two-thirds of those electors attending, direct that all or a portion of the available funds be expended directly by the township to provide the services or facilities for older inhabitants described in this Article.
