  436  s. 218.65.
  437         4. After the distributions under subparagraphs 1., 2., and

  456  shall receive an amount proportionate to the amount it was due
  457  in state fiscal year 1999-2000.
  458         6. Of the remaining proceeds:
  459         a. In each fiscal year, the sum of $29,915,500 shall be

  461  state, and one part shall be distributed to each county. The
  462  distribution among the several counties must begin each fiscal
  463  year on or before January 5th and continue monthly for a total

  468  government, such payment must continue until the local or
  469  special law is amended or repealed. The state covenants with
  470  holders of bonds or other instruments of indebtedness issued by

  476  previous pledges or assignments or trusts entered into which
  477  obligated funds received from the distribution to county
  478  governments under then-existing s. 550.135. This distribution
  479  specifically is in lieu of funds distributed under s. 550.135
  480  before July 1, 2000.
  481         b. The department shall distribute $166,667 monthly
