Expenditure of funds.
The board of county commissioners may establish or maintain programs and activities for
the benefit of nonprofit organizations that assist the arts, including the expansion of existing
programs. A board of county commissioners may expend funds received from county, state,
federal, or private sources for the public purposes provided for in this section. A board of county
commissioners may not make an expenditure under this section to defray expenses or to assist
an organization unless that organization is incorporated as a nonprofit corporation and has
contracted with the board of county commissioners with respect to the manner in which the
funds will be expended and services provided. The board of county commissioners shall review
annually an organization that receives funds under this section to determine the organization's
eligibility to receive public funds. As used in this section, "nonprofit organizations that assist the
arts" means organizations recognized by the council on the arts.
