Los créditos autorizados para las atenciones de un año fiscal específico serán aplicados exclusivamente al pago de gastos legítimamente originados e incurridos durante el respectivo año, o al pago de obligaciones legalmente contraídas y debidamente asentadas en los libros del municipio durante dicho año.
