In OAG 86-23, the Attorney General opined that a county could not donate money to someone to do something that it was itself not authorized to do. This previous opinion is cited in OAG 90-22 to support the conclusion that neither the county nor the city may contribute funds to the Hickman County PTO for the purchase of air conditioners, as education is a state function and not within the authorized functions of the city or county.
