Sec. 246.
(1) The release of allocations may be approved when the legislature has specified either a total authorized cost or has appropriated an amount sufficient to complete the designated project. The authorized cost of projects shall only be established or revised by specific reference in a budget act, by concurrent resolution adopted by both houses of the legislature, or inferred by the total amount of any appropriations made to complete plans and construction.
(2) Expenditures under a capital outlay budget act shall be authorized when the release of the appropriation is approved by the board. The board shall approve the release of construction appropriations when the director certifies that a project can be accomplished within the appropriation or authorization and that the project is in compliance with this act. For each project certified, the board, upon the further recommendation of the director, shall approve the release of only those amounts required to complete the project according to the recommended purpose and scope as provided in an appropriation act. Contracts or other commitments shall not be incurred or obligated which will result in the completion of a project which exceeds this purpose and scope. A state agency, community college, or institution of higher education shall not make any commitments for a project until after the release of the appropriation pursuant to this act. The board may approve the release of a part of any appropriation for the purpose of preparing the planning or bidding documents or for investigations which may be necessary to determine whether or not the project can be completed within the appropriation.
