TCA § 11-24-106 — Gifts of property for recreational purposes — Expenditure of funds

A recreation board or commission or other authority in which this part vests the power to provide, establish, maintain and conduct such supervised recreation system may accept any grant or devise of real estate or any gift or bequest of money or other personal property or any donation to be applied, principal or income, for either temporary or permanent use for playgrounds or recreation purposes, but if the acceptance thereof for such purpose will subject the municipality to additional expense for improvement, maintenance or renewal, the acceptance of any grant or devise of real estate shall be subject to the approval of the governing body of such municipality. Money received for such purpose, unless otherwise provided by the terms of the gift or bequest, shall be deposited with the treasurer of the municipality to the account of the recreation board or other body having charge of such work, and the same may be withdrawn and paid out in the same manner as money appropriated for recreational purposes.
