"[ADDITIONAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT REVENUE DISTRIBUTION]
Section 333.
(a) There is appropriated from the general fund twenty million dollars ($20,000,000.00) to the office of state lands and investments to be allocated as follows:
(i) Each city or town with a population of thirty-five (35) or less shall first receive five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) and each city or town with a population over thirty-five (35) shall first receive ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00).
(ii) From any remaining funds provided under this subsection, each city or town that meets all of the following criteria is eligible to receive a proportionate share of the remainder as computed in paragraph (iii) of this subsection. To qualify for this additional payment, a city or town must:
(A) Have a majority of its incorporated population residing within a county that imposes at least one percent (1.0%) of the taxes authorized under W.S. 39-15-204(a) and at least one percent (1.0%) of the taxes authorized under W.S. 39-16-204(a) at the time of the distribution;
(B) Impose at least seven (7) of the available mills authorized by article 15, section 6 of the Wyoming constitution at the time of the distribution; and
(C) Have a per capita potential city or town ad valorem tax revenue plus per capita potential city or town sales and use tax revenue that is less than the per capita potential statewide, incorporated ad valorem tax revenue and the per capita potential statewide, incorporated sales and use tax revenue.
(iii) Each qualifying city's or town's computed payment shall be the sum of the following two (2) products. The first product shall be the city's or town's population multiplied by the difference between the per capita potential statewide, incorporated ad valorem tax revenue and the city's or town's per capita potential city or town ad valorem tax revenue. The second product shall be the qualifying city's or town's population multiplied by the difference between the per capita potential statewide, incorporated sales and use tax revenue and the city's or town's per capita potential city or town sales and use tax revenue;
(iv) To the extent insufficient funds are available to provide full payments to all cities and towns under paragraph (iii) of this subsection, each payment shall be proportionately reduced by the ratio of the total payments calculated for all cities and towns under paragraph (iii) of this subsection to the available funds under paragraph (ii) of this subsection;
(v) In the event the computed payment for a city or town under paragraph (iii) of this subsection results in a negative number, no payment shall be made;
(vi) If the total funds directed to all cities and towns under this subsection exceed the payments calculated under this subsection, any excess funds shall revert to the budget reserve account.
(b) As used in this section:
(i) "Department" means the department of revenue;
(ii) "Per capita potential city or town ad valorem tax revenue" means the total assessed value within each city or town as determined by the department for calendar year 2004 multiplied by eight (8) mills and divided by the city or town population;
(iii) "Per capita potential city or town sales and use tax revenue" means the total statewide sales and use taxes collected in each county from the taxes imposed under W.S. 39-15-104(a) and (b) and under W.S. 39-16-104(a) and (b) as determined by the department for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2004 and ending June 30, 2005 divided by two (2) and multiplied by the proportion the population of the city or town bears to the population of the county, divided by each city or town's population;
(iv) "Per capita potential statewide, incorporated ad valorem tax revenue" means the total assessed value within all cities and towns as determined by the department for calendar year 2004 multiplied by eight (8) mills, divided by the population residing within the corporate limits of all cities and towns within the state;
(v) "Per capita potential statewide, incorporated sales and use tax revenue" means the total statewide sales and use taxes collected from the taxes imposed under W.S. 39-15-104(a) and (b) and under W.S. 39-16-104(a) and (b) as determined by the department for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2004 and ending June 30, 2005 divided by two (2) and multiplied by the proportion that total statewide population residing inside the corporate limits of all cities and towns bears to the total population of the state, divided by the total statewide population residing within the corporate limits of all cities and towns within the state; and
(vi) "Population" means the population as determined by the most recent decennial census as periodically updated by the bureau of the census.".
