The estimates of receipts must be in detail and must be classified to show the receipts by funds, and the several sources of receipts, including the proceeds to be derived from the sale of bonds, or other property, and must be in accordance with the classification of revenue accounts now or hereafter adopted by the board of trustees.
The board of trustees shall review the estimates both of anticipated receipts and of anticipated expenditures, adding to, altering, revising, increasing or decreasing the items of the estimates as it deems necessary in view of the needs and available and probable receipts of the district.
