(2) require the works board to estimate, at least annually, expenditures needed for condemnations, rentals, and purchases for each successive fiscal year;

(3) approve, amend, or reject all or part of the long-range capital expenditure program and the proposed annual expenditures, before or during the adoption of the city budget; and

(4) specify the manner in which the works board must itemize the estimates of capital program expenditures for each fiscal year.
