§ 8-2-9.5.

In the preparation by the municipal budget officer of the annual budget, an amount not to exceed 3% of the equalized assessed value of property subject to taxation by the municipality may be accumulated in a separate fund for the purpose or purposes of specific capital improvements, repairs, and/or replacements of specific types of municipal equipment or other tangible property, both real and personal, to be designated as the "Capital Improvement, Repair or Replacement Fund". Expenditures from the Capital Improvement, Repair or Replacement Fund shall be budgeted in the fiscal year in which the capital improvement, repair or replacement will occur. Upon the completion or abandonment of any object for which the Capital Improvement, Repair or Replacement Fund, or should any surplus monies remain after the completion or abandonment of any object for which the Capital Improvement, Repair or Replacement Fund was inaugurated, then such funds no longer necessary for capital improvement, repair or replacement shall be transferred into the general corporate fund of the municipality on the first day of the fiscal year following such abandonment, completion, or discovery of surplus funds.
