In all cities, the council shall appropriate the sums necessary for the expenditures of the several city departments and for the interest on its bonded and other indebtedness, not exceeding in the aggregate within 10 percent of its estimated receipts, and such city council shall not appropriate in the aggregate an amount in excess of its annual legally authorized revenue. But nothing in this section shall prevent such cities from anticipating their revenues for the year for which such appropriation was made, or from contracting for temporary loans as provided in the applicable provisions of this title, or from bonding or refunding their outstanding indebtedness or from appropriating anticipated revenue at any time for the current expenses of the city and interest on the bonded and other indebtedness of the city.
