      in the county public welfare district and shall levy taxes in each  such
      town for the amount of the approved estimate for such town.
        2.    The  legislative  body of a city forming part of a county public
      welfare district shall appropriate the amount it considers necessary for
      administration and public assistance and care in  such  city  and  shall
      cause taxes to be levied for the amount of such appropriation.
        Nothing  contained  in  this section shall be construed to prevent the
      financing of any such expenditure, in whole or in part, pursuant to  the
      local finance law.

      necessary taxes to be levied therefor in the  territory  of  the  county
      public welfare district.
