§ 52:27h-42.

a. As soon as it is practicable after the appointment and qualification of the members

of the authority, and annually thereafter, at least 20 days preceding the commencement of the authority's fiscal year on January 1 of each year, the authority shall prepare a proposed budget for its operations and

activities for the ensuing fiscal year and introduce the budget by resolution. The budget shall become effective as provided in section 8 of P.L.1981, c. 459 ( C.52:27H-36 ), subject to the provisions of subsection d. of this section . b. The budget shall set forth anticipated revenues for the ensuing fiscal year and

the sources thereof, and appropriations for the same period, which appropriations

shall not exceed the anticipated revenues. No revenue from any source shall be anticipated unless it can be reasonably expected

to be realized during the fiscal year to which the budget applies. Appropriations shall be segregated as salaries and wages, contractual other expenses,

and noncontractual other expenses. c. An appropriation for “anticipated operating deficit of preceding year” shall appear

in each annual budget in the amount by which the liabilities and disbursements of

the authority for expenditures in the next preceding fiscal year exceed or are likely

to exceed receipts and other revenue in that year, subtracting any expenditures provided

for by surplus anticipated in the budget. d. No proposed budget required pursuant to this section shall be approved by the authority unless it is in compliance with the terms of any bond resolution or trust agreement relating to the financing

of facilities operated by the authority .
