Unclaimed Funds Question

Hello to all fellow Treasurers,

Thank you in advance for considering my question. Do our commissioners have to approve an increase of appropriation in the expense line for unclaimed funds? I have all the proper documentation to release funds to an estate for which we have funds in unclaimed. Does/can this fall in the same category as requesting a voucher for, say, a tax overpayment refund which can be done without commissioner approval?
