    27  taxes  pursuant to subdivision (a) of section twelve hundred ten of this
    28  article at the rate of three percent:
    29    (1) The county shall allocate one-half of net  collections  from  such
    30  taxes  imposed  [at  the  rate  of one and one-half percent] pursuant to
    31  subdivision (a) of section twelve hundred ten of this article countywide
    32  among the cities and towns of the county on the basis of the ratio which
    33  the full valuation of real property in each city or town  bears  to  the
    34  aggregate full valuation of real property in all cities and towns of the
    35  county.    Amounts so allocated shall be credited to each of said cities
    36  and towns against the county taxes levied upon  real  property  in  said
    37  cities and towns.
    38    (2)  The  county  shall  allocate  and  credit or pay one-third of net
    39  collections [received by the county by  reason  of  its  additional  one
    40  percent  rate  of]  from such taxes [on] imposed pursuant to subdivision
    41  (a) of section twelve hundred ten of this article to  the  area  of  the

    49  quarterly by the county commissioner of finance, in cash, to the several
    50  school districts in such area of the county outside any such city impos-
    51  ing  sales  and  compensating use taxes. Such allocation and payment, to
    52  such several school districts, shall be made on the basis of  the  ratio
    53  which the population of each such school district bears to the aggregate
    54  population  of  all of the school districts in such area. In the case of
    55  school districts which are partially within and  partially  without  the
    56  county,  or partially within or partially without the area of the county

        S. 4940--B                          4
     1  outside a city imposing sales and compensating use taxes, the allocation
     2  and payment to each such school district shall be made on the  basis  of
     3  the population in such school district in the county, or in such area of
     4  the  county outside a city imposing sales and compensating use taxes, as
     5  the case may be. Such populations shall be determined in accordance with
     6  the latest federal census or special  population  census  under  section
     7  twenty of the general municipal law completed and published prior to the
     8  end  of the quarter in which such allocation and payment are made, which
     9  special population census shall include the entire area of  the  county;
    10  provided  that  such  special  population census shall not be taken more

    12  ter  county  and  another county shall apply such allocation and payment
    13  solely to the benefit of the residents of the county in which the  sales
    14  and compensating use taxes are imposed.
    15    (C) One-half of such net collections shall be allocated and paid quar-
    16  terly  by the county commissioner of finance, in cash, to the cities not
    17  imposing sales and compensating use taxes and to the towns and  villages
    18  on  which such [additional one percent] rate is imposed, on the basis of
    19  the ratio which the population of each such city,  town  or  village  on
    20  which  such [additional one percent] rate is imposed bears to the entire
    21  population of all such cities, towns and villages in the area  on  which
    22  such [additional one percent] rate is imposed. Such populations shall be
    23  determined in accordance with the latest federal census or special popu-
    24  lation  census  under  section  twenty  of  the  general  municipal  law
    25  completed and published prior to the end of the quarter  in  which  such
    26  allocation  is  made,  which special population census shall include the
    27  entire area of the county; provided that such special population  census
    28  shall not be taken more than once in every two years.
    29    (D)  The  quarterly  allocation  and payment of cash to cities, towns,
    30  villages and school districts provided  for  under  this  paragraph  and

    34  the county commissioner of finance of the  quarterly  settlement  report
    35  issued  by  the  department, and may include adjustments for corrections
    36  applicable to such allocations. All ratios  established  by  the  county
    37  commissioner  of  finance  with respect to allocations to cities, towns,
    38  villages and school districts under this subdivision and under  subdivi-
    39  sion  (b)  of  this section shall be carried to four decimal places. The
    40  allocation of net collections and payment of  cash  provided  for  under
    41  this  paragraph  and under paragraph three of this subdivision and under
    42  subdivision (b) of this section shall be made to a town based  upon  the
    43  population  of  the  town  less  the  population of any village therein,
    44  provided that a town/village or village/town shall be deemed  a  village
    45  for  the  purpose  of determining such allocation. The allocation of net
    46  collections and payment of cash provided for under  this  paragraph  and
    47  under  paragraph  three of this subdivision and under subdivision (b) of
    48  this section shall be applied by the cities, towns, villages and  school
    49  districts  receiving such allocation and payment as a credit against the
    50  taxes upon real property  imposed  by  such  municipalities  and  school
    51  districts,  respectively.  The  allocation and payment received by towns
    52  shall be credited against real property taxes in either the general fund
    53  town-wide or the town outside village fund or a combination thereof.
    54    (3) The county shall allocate and  credit  or  pay  one-sixth  of  net
    55  collections [received by the county by reason of its additional one-half
    56  percent  rate  of]  from such taxes imposed [on] pursuant to subdivision

        S. 4940--B                          5

    15  rate of sales and compensating use tax authorized by clause forty-two of
    16  subparagraph  (i) of the opening paragraph of section twelve hundred ten
    17  of this article, the   county shall  allocate  and  credit  or  pay  net
