At a meeting duly warned for that purpose, a town or incorporated village may appropriate
such sums of money as it deems necessary for the support of social service programs
and facilities within that town for its residents. Social service programs, for which
a town or incorporated village may appropriate sums of money, include: transportation,
nutrition, medical, child care, and other rehabilitative services for persons with
low incomes, elders, children, persons with disabilities, persons with a substance
use disorder, and persons requiring employment to eliminate their need for public
assistance. The authority herein granted is not in derogation of other local powers
to allocate funds. (Added 1973, No. 177 (Adj. Sess.), § 2; amended 2005, No. 174 (Adj. Sess.), § 56; 2013, No. 96 (Adj. Sess.), § 152.)
