Section 703.379 | Local government fund payments.
(A) As used in this section, "local government fund payments" means payments a dissolved village would receive under sections 5747.503, 5747.51, and 5747.53, and division (C) of section 5747.50 of the Revised Code, as applicable, if not for the dissolution of the village.
(B) A county budget commission of a county in which all or part of the former territory of the dissolved village is located shall exclude the dissolved village from any apportionment plan adopted under section 5747.51 or 5747.53 of the Revised Code on or after the first day of the transition period. A county budget commission shall not amend an apportionment plan adopted under one of those sections before the first day of the transition period for the purpose of reallocating county undivided local government fund payments apportioned to the dissolved village.
(C) All local government fund payments to a dissolved village shall continue as described in divisions (D) and (E) of this section until the end of the last calendar year for which an apportionment plan adopted by a county budget commission under section 5747.51 or 5747.53 of the Revised Code includes allocations of county undivided local government fund revenue to the dissolved village.
(D) During the transition period, local government fund payments to the dissolved village shall be distributed to the receiver-trustee for disposal under section 703.373 of the Revised Code.
(E) After the transition period, local government fund payments to the dissolved village shall be distributed directly to the fiscal officer of the township that assumed the most dissolved village territory. The fiscal officer shall first apply the revenue to any outstanding debts, obligations, and liabilities of the dissolved village. Any remaining revenue shall then be dispensed to the township or townships into which the territory of the dissolved village was dissolved. Such remaining revenue shall be divided in the same proportions and used for the same purposes as tax and special assessment revenue under division (G) of section 703.371 of the Revised Code.
