14-169-229. Public appropriations and loans.

(a) (1) When any housing authority which is created for any city or county becomes authorized to transact business and exercise its powers in it, the governing body of the city or county, as the case may be, shall immediately make an estimate of the amount of money necessary for the administrative expenses and overhead of the authority during the first year.

(b) (1) Any city, town, or county located, in whole or in part, within the area of operation of a housing authority shall have the power from time to time to lend or donate money to the authority or agree to take such action.

(2) The authority, when it has money available, shall make reimbursements for all such loans made to it by way of loans.
