(3) "Expenditures for police protection" shall be those for the fiscal year

fiscal year ending June 30, 1969, and so forth. "Expenditures for police protection"
means salaries and wages, other operating expenses, capital outlays from current
operating funds, and properly identifiable debt service, paid for police protection.
Expenditures for sheriffs and constables are included only to the extent that such
officers perform police protection functions. Expenditures for traffic control, park
