NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the General Appropriations Act is hereby amended in Section 21.(g) to read: (g) Annually, from Fiscal Year 1999 through Fiscal Year 2003, $5,000,000.00 will be transferred from the Delinquent Tax Revolving Fund to the General Fund to allow for the establishment of an Environmental Infrastructure Fund (#263). These funds will then be allocated and transferred from the General Fund Operating Transfer account (#90-310000- 41000-8001) to the Environmental Infrastructure Fund. The allocation of the Environmental Infrastructure Fund to local cities, villages and townships (CVTs) will be based upon criteria established by the Board of Commissioners. The total allocation, however, to any approved CVT will coincide with an allocation which is based on 50% of the percentage of each CVT's state taxable value (STV) to the County's total taxable value for the most recently completed assessment year, and 50% on the percentage of each CVT's population, to the County's total population based on the most recently completed Decennial Census.
