§ 74-73. Distribution of funds.  


Latest version.
  • As soon as practicable after the rapid transit sales and use tax monies collected under this article have been paid into the state treasury, in any month for the preceding month, the director of the fiscal division of the department of administrative services shall draw his warrant on the state treasury in the proper amount due the county in favor of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (authority), which payment the authority shall credit to the county in the appropriate amount and which payment shall be charged to the account of the county under the special fund described above in section 74-72. Any errors made in any such payments or any adjustments otherwise necessary, whether attributable to refunds to taxpayers or by some other fact, shall be corrected, and adjustments shall be made in such payments for the next month or subsequent months. The amount due the county shall be reduced by the amount of costs incurred by the department of revenue in the administration and collection of the rapid transit sales and use tax. The amount of costs of the department shall be certified by the state revenue commissioner to the director of the fiscal division of the department of administrative services who shall deduct such amount from the amount due to the county. The amount deducted shall be deposited by the director of the fiscal division of the department of administrative services in the state treasury to the credit of the general fund.
