requirements - Special Budget Accounts - Departmentalization and itemization. The county excise board shall comply with the following: (a) Provision and levy for the sinking funds of any municipality shall be made in strict conformity to the special statute therefor (62 O.S.1961, Section 431): but no surplus shall be disclosed or computed in any sinking fund account except it be in cash and investments actually on hand in excess of all accrual liabilities, whether collections exceed anticipations or not. (b) Building fund appropriations and levies under Section X, Article 10, Oklahoma Constitution, shall be computed by the same formula and subject to the same defenses as general funds, but need be itemized only as to the amount needed for construction of new buildings, remodeling or repairing buildings, and purchasing furniture, and for a reserve for interest on warrant issues according to statute. (c) The general fund shall comprehend and include all appropriations and expenditures financed from levy of ad valorem tax under any of the provisions of Section 9, Article X, Oklahoma Constitution, and all revenues from sources other than ad valorem taxation except the proceeds derived from the sale of bonds and those revenues specifically required by law to be deposited into the sinking fund, the building or replacement funds, or in cash funds, or in any other fund or funds so specifically denominated by statute. If a portion of the ad valorem levies under said Section 9, Article 10, Oklahoma Constitution, and specific revenues from other sources, be required by law to be devoted to a special purpose, other than those specifically required to be accounted for in cash funds, such special purpose shall be provided for by a special budget account within the general fund, distinguished from the governmental budget account, and assigned such appropriation account or accounts as will accomplish such special purpose and include sums at least equivalent to the net estimate of revenues or levy thus specially applied. As to counties, cities, and towns, except as hereinafter provided, the governmental budget account shall be departmentalized, and the appropriations made for the use of each separate office, board, commission or department shall be stated in separate items, and no appropriation shall be available for the use of more than one office, board, commission or department; and the appropriations so made for the use of each such separate office, board, commission or department, or for any special function of either of them, of the several municipalities, including the general fund appropriations of municipalities not so departmentalized, shall not be increased or diminished after such appropriations become final, except in the manner provided by law (Section 24101 of this Code), or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction.
