§ 4.
Money shall be transferred from said working cash fund to the general corporate fund only upon the authority of the commissioners who shall from time to time by separate resolution direct the treasurer to make transfers of such sums as may be required for the purposes herein authorized. Every resolution shall set forth: (a) The taxes in anticipation of the collection of which such transfer is to be made and from which such working cash fund is to be reimbursed; (b) The entire amount of taxes extended or which such commissioners estimate will be extended or received for any year, in anticipation of the collection of all or part of which, such transfer is to be made; (c) The aggregate amount of warrants theretofore issued in anticipation of the collection of such taxes under the provisions of the Warrants and Jurors Certificates Act, together with the amount of interest accrued and/or which such commissioners estimate will accrue thereon. (d) The aggregate amount of moneys theretofore transferred from the working cash fund to the general corporate fund in anticipation of the collection of such taxes. (e) The aggregate amount of receipts from taxes imposed to replace revenue lost by units of local government and school districts as a result of the abolition of ad valorem personal property taxes, pursuant to Article IX, Section 5(c) of the Constitution of the State of Illinois, which the corporate authorities estimate will be set aside for the payment of the proportionate amount of debt service and pension or retirement obligations, as required by Section 12 of the State Revenue Sharing Act. The amount which any such resolution shall direct the treasurer so to transfer, in anticipation of the collection of taxes levied or to be received for any year, together with the aggregate amount of such tax anticipation warrants theretofore issued against such taxes and the amount of the interest accrued and/or estimated to accrue on such warrants, the amount estimated to be required to satisfy debt service and pension or retirement obligations, as set forth in Section 12 of the State Revenue Sharing Act, and the aggregate amount of such transfers theretofore made in anticipation of the collection of such taxes, shall not exceed ninety per cent of the actual estimated amount of said taxes extended and to be extended or to be received as set forth in said resolution. To the extent that at any time moneys are available in the working cash fund they shall be transferred to the general corporate fund and disbursed for the payment of salaries and other corporate expenses so as to avoid whenever possible, the issuance of tax anticipation warrants.
