§ 36-7-4-308. Organization; appropriations
Sec. 308. (a) ADVISORY. After a legislative body has adopted an ordinance establishing a municipal or county plan commission, the fiscal body of the municipality or the county, as the case may be, may make appropriations to carry out the duties of the commission.
(b) ADVISORY. After a metropolitan plan commission is established, the commission shall use all amounts previously appropriated to, but unexpended by, the county plan commission and the second class city plan commission without any further appropriation or transfer. Then the county fiscal body shall appropriate all necessary amounts for the use of the commission, but the city legislative body may appropriate additional amounts for the use of the commission. These amounts shall be deposited with the county treasurer in a fund to be known as the metropolitan planning fund.
(c) AREA. After the planning department is established, the county fiscal body shall appropriate and make available to the planning department an amount equal to three cents ($.03) per person per month for each person in the county's population. This amount is to finance the planning department's operation from its establishment until appropriations are available to it through regular county budget and appropriation procedures. The county fiscal body shall appropriate sufficient amounts to the planning department to insure the continued functioning of the planning department within the participating units. This appropriation shall be made in conformity with the fiscal body's policy regarding the operating budgets of the various divisions of county government.
