§ 8223. Duty of treasurer.
The treasurer of each local government unit shall deposit into the applicable sinking fund or other fund the moneys to be deposited therein pursuant to the pledge or covenant made or adopted by the local government unit at the times and in the amounts provided in the pledge or covenant or, if no pledge or covenant has been made or adopted, as provided in the appropriations made by the governing body.

The governing body of a local government unit may issue its tax anticipation notes under Subchapter B of Chapter 81 (relating to tax anticipation notes and funding debt) to provide all or any part of any moneys needed for deposit in the sinking funds or other funds.
