§ 6.01. Fiscal year.

The fiscal year of the city shall be as established by ordinance of the council. In the event the council does not thus establish the fiscal year, the fiscal year of the city shall begin on the first day of each October and end on the last day of September of the following year. All funds collected by the city during any fiscal year, including both current and delinquent revenues, shall belong to such fiscal year and, except for funds derived to pay interest and create a sinking fund on the bonded indebtedness of the city, may be applied to the payments of expenses incurred during such fiscal year, except as provided in this Charter. Any revenues uncollected at the end of any fiscal year, and any unencumbered funds actually on hand, shall become resources of the next succeeding fiscal year.
