(a) In the event moneys are distributed to the County Aid Fund and Municipal Aid Fund during any month which are in excess of one-twelfth (1/12) of the amount estimated by the Chief Fiscal Officer of the State to become available to the County Aid Fund and Municipal Aid Fund during the then-current fiscal year, as certified monthly by the Chief Fiscal Officer of the State to the Treasurer of State, up to a maximum of that set out in §§ 19-5-402 and 19-5-404 [repealed] for the County Aid Fund and Municipal Aid Fund, there shall be transferred from the County Aid Fund and Municipal Aid Fund to the Budget Stabilization Trust Fund such amounts as are necessary to repay any loans outstanding from the Budget Stabilization Trust Fund to the County Aid Fund and Municipal Aid Fund before any distribution of general revenue is made to any county or municipality in this state.
(b) The amount remaining to be distributed after repaying the loans under the provisions of this section shall not be less than one-twelfth (1/12) of the amount estimated by the Chief Fiscal Officer of the State to become available to the County Aid Fund and Municipal Aid Fund during the then-current fiscal year or the amount as set out for the County Aid Fund and Municipal Aid Fund in §§ 19-5-402 and 19-5-404 [repealed], whichever is the lesser.
(c) The amount of moneys to be loaned to the County Aid Fund and Municipal Aid Fund in any month from the Budget Stabilization Trust Fund shall be determined by the Chief Fiscal Officer of the State after taking into consideration the amount distributed during the prior months in the then-current fiscal year as well as the amounts estimated to be distributed to the County Aid Fund and Municipal Aid Fund in succeeding months of the then-current fiscal year. It is the intent of the General Assembly to provide a distribution to the counties and municipalities each month of such general revenue as is available which, together with loans from the Budget Stabilization Trust Fund, will provide as even a flow of moneys as is possible throughout the fiscal year while at the same time maintaining the Budget Stabilization Trust Fund in a strong financial position.
(d) All loans made to the County Aid Fund and Municipal Aid Fund from the Budget Stabilization Trust Fund are to be repaid by June 30 of the fiscal year in which the loans were made.
