         provisions of section 63-3638(e), Idaho Code, during the fourth
         quarter of calendar year 1999, shall be entitled to a like amount
         during succeeding calendar quarters.
         (ii)  If the dollar amount of money available under this subsection
         (9)(d) in any quarter does not equal the amount paid in the fourth
         quarter of calendar year 1999, each special purpose taxing district's
         payment shall be reduced proportionately.
         (iii) If the dollar amount of money available under this subsection
         (9)(d) in any quarter exceeds the amount distributed under paragraph
         (i) of this subsection (9)(d), each special purpose taxing district
         shall be entitled to a share of the excess based on the proportion
         each such district's current property tax budget bears to the sum of
         the current property tax budgets of all such districts in the state.
         The state tax commission shall calculate district current property
         tax budgets to include any unrecovered foregone amounts as determined
         under section 63-802(1)(e), Idaho Code. When a special purpose taxing
         district is situated in more than one (1) county, the tax commission
         shall determine the portion attributable to the special purpose
         taxing district from each county in which it is situated.
         (iv)  If special purpose taxing districts are consolidated, the
         resulting district is entitled to a base amount equal to the sum of
         the base amounts which were received in the last calendar quarter by
         each district prior to the consolidation.
         (v)   If a special purpose taxing district is dissolved or
         disincorporated, the state tax commission shall continuously
         distribute to the board of county commissioners an amount equal to
         the last quarter's distribution prior to dissolution or
         disincorporation. The board of county commissioners shall determine
         any redistribution of moneys so received.
         (vi)  Taxing districts formed after January 1, 2001, are not entitled
         to a payment under the provisions of this subsection (9)(d).
         (vii) For purposes of this subsection (9)(d), a special purpose
         taxing district is any taxing district which is not a city, a county
         or a school district.
    (10) Amounts calculated in accordance with section 2, chapter 356, laws of
2001, for annual distribution to counties and other taxing districts beginning
in October 2001 for replacement of property tax on farm machinery and
equipment exempted pursuant to section 63-602EE, Idaho Code. For nonschool
districts, the state tax commission shall distribute one-fourth (1/4) of this
amount certified quarterly to each county. For school districts, the state tax
commission shall distribute one-fourth (1/4) of the amount certified quarterly
to each school district. For nonschool districts, the county auditor shall
distribute to each district within thirty (30) calendar days from receipt of
moneys from the tax commission. Moneys received  by each taxing district for
replacement shall be utilized in the same manner and in the same proportions
as revenues from property taxation. The moneys remitted to the county
treasurer for replacement of property exempt from taxation pursuant to section
63-602EE, Idaho Code, may be considered by the counties and other taxing
districts and budgeted at the same time, in the same manner and in the same
year as revenues from taxation on personal property which these moneys
replace. If taxing districts are consolidated, the resulting district is
entitled to an amount equal to the sum of the amounts which were received in
the last calendar quarter by each district pursuant to this subsection prior
to the consolidation. If a taxing district is dissolved or disincorporated,
the state tax commission shall continuously distribute to the board of county
commissioners an amount equal to the last quarter's distribution prior to
dissolution or disincorporation. The board of county commissioners shall
determine any redistribution of moneys so received.  If a taxing district
annexes territory, the distribution of moneys received pursuant to this
subsection shall be unaffected. Taxing districts formed after January 1, 2001,
are not entitled to a payment under the provisions of this subsection. School
districts shall receive an amount determined by multiplying the sum of the
year 2000 school district levy minus .004 times the market value on December
31, 2000, in the district of the property exempt from taxation pursuant to
section 63-602EE, Idaho Code, provided that the result of these calculations
shall not be less than zero (0). The result of these school district
calculations shall be further increased by six percent (6%). For purposes of
the limitation provided by section 63-802, Idaho Code, moneys received
pursuant to this section as property tax replacement for property exempt from
taxation pursuant to section 63-602EE, Idaho Code, shall be treated as
property tax revenues.
    (11) Any moneys remaining over and above those necessary to meet and
reserve for payments under other subsections of this section shall be
distributed to the general fund.
