Sec. 14. The works board may determine if any part of the damages awarded shall be paid out of funds appropriated for the use of the board. However, not more than two thousand dollars ($2,000) in damages may be paid out of the municipality's funds for any improvement or condemnation except under an ordinance appropriating money for the specific improvement or condemnation. All benefits assessed and collected by the fiscal officer or county treasurer are subject to draft, in the usual manner, upon certificate by the works board in favor of persons to whom damages have been awarded. Any surplus remaining above actual awards belongs to the municipality. The works board may delay proceedings until the benefits have been collected.
