The governing body of any city is authorized to establish or maintain programs and activities
for senior citizens, including the expansion of existing senior citizen centers which will provide
recreational and other leisure-time activities, informational, health, welfare, counseling, and
referral services for senior citizens, and assist such persons in providing volunteer community or
civic services. The governing body is authorized to expend funds received from state, federal, or
private sources for the public purposes provided for in this section. No expenditure authorized
by this section shall be made to defray any expenses of any organization or agency until such

and has contracted with the governing body in regard to the manner in which such funds will be

expended and the services to be provided. An organization or agency and its program which
receives such funds shall be reviewed or approved annually by the governing body to determine
its eligibility to receive funds under the provisions of this section.
