  in  March,  nineteen  hundred  eighty-two  and annually thereafter, each
  city, village, and town shall receive from moneys  appropriated  by  the
  state  in  support  of  activities  related  to  the  administration and
  enforcement in  the  previous  calendar  year  of  fire  prevention  and
  building  codes  the  sum  of the amounts computed in paragraphs a and b
  below.
a. One-half the amount appropriated multiplied by the proportion which
  the population of the city, village or town outside a village  bears  to
  the population of the state taken as a whole.
b. One-half the amount appropriated multiplied by the proportion which
  the  full  value of the city, village or town outside a village bears to
  the full value of the state taken  as  a  whole.  The  amount  otherwise
  payable to a local government under this subdivision shall be reduced by
  the  amount  of  state  aid to local governments for housing maintenance
  code enforcement payable to such local  government  in  the  same  state
  fiscal  year  under  the  provisions  of  section  fifty-four-h  of this
  chapter.

  fire  prevention  and  building code within a city, village or town, the
  funds otherwise payable to the city, village, or town shall be  paid  to
  the county or revert to the state, as the case may be. Where a county or
  the  secretary  of  state  has  been so engaged for less than the entire
  calendar  year  provided  in  subdivision  one,  the  moneys  shall   be
  distributed to the city, village, or town, county or state in proportion
  to  the  length  of  time  for  which  each  was  responsible  for  said
  administration and enforcement.
3. The terms used in this section shall have the meanings ascribed  to
  them in section fifty-four of this article.
