§ 7511 — Appropriations by political subdivisions

(a) General rule.--Every political subdivision shall have the power to make appropriations for the payment of expenses of the local organization in the manner provided by law for making appropriations for the ordinary expenses of the political subdivision. In making appropriations, the political subdivision shall specify the amounts and purposes for which the moneys appropriated may be used by the organization to or for which such appropriation may be made.

(b) Two or more local organizations.--Nothing in this subchapter or any other provision of this part shall be deemed to limit the power of any political subdivision to appropriate money for the purpose of paying the expenses of a local organization having jurisdiction both within and without the political subdivision even though an appropriation has been or is to be made to another local organization coterminous with or having jurisdiction within the political subdivision. Payments on account of an appropriation under this subsection shall be made pursuant to an agreement under section 7513 (relating to agreements among political subdivisions) or in the form of a gift or grant to the political subdivision responsible in the first instance for the payment of bills and claims against the local organization for the payment of the expenses for which the appropriation was made.
