(1) The county shall allocate one-half of net collections from such taxes imposed pursuant to subdivision (a) of section twelve hundred ten of this article countywide among the cities and towns of the county on the basis of the ratio which the full valuation of real property in each city or town bears to the aggregate full valuation of real property in all cities and towns of the county. Amounts so allocated shall be credited to each of said cities and towns against the county taxes levied upon real property in said cities and towns.

(2) The county shall allocate and credit or pay one-third of net collections from such taxes imposed pursuant to subdivision (a) of section twelve hundred ten of this article to the area of the county outside any city imposing sales and compensating use taxes at a rate of one and one-half percent or greater pursuant to the authority of subdivision (a) or at any rate pursuant to the authority of subdivision (b) of section twelve hundred ten of this article as follows:

(A) One-third of such net collections shall be allocated and credited in the manner set forth in paragraph one of this subdivision.

(B) One-sixth of such net collections shall be allocated and paid quarterly by the county commissioner of finance, in cash, to the several school districts in such area of the county outside any such city imposing sales and compensating use taxes. Such allocation and payment, to such several school districts, shall be made on the basis of the ratio which the population of each such school district bears to the aggregate population of all of the school districts in such area. In the case of school districts which are partially within and partially without the county, or partially within or partially without the area of the county outside a city imposing sales and compensating use taxes, the allocation and payment to each such school district shall be made on the basis of the population in such school district in the county, or in such area of the county outside a city imposing sales and compensating use taxes, as the case may be. Such populations shall be determined in accordance with the latest federal census or special population census under section twenty of the general municipal law completed and published prior to the end of the quarter in which such allocation and payment are made, which special population census shall include the entire area of the county; provided that such special population census shall not be taken more than once in every two years. A school district split between Westchester county and another county shall apply such allocation and payment solely to the benefit of the residents of the county in which the sales and compensating use taxes are imposed.

(C) One-half of such net collections shall be allocated and paid quarterly by the county commissioner of finance, in cash, to the cities not imposing sales and compensating use taxes and to the towns and villages on which such rate is imposed, on the basis of the ratio which the population of each such city, town or village on which such rate is imposed bears to the entire population of all such cities, towns and villages in the area on which such rate is imposed. Such populations shall be determined in accordance with the latest federal census or special population census under section twenty of the general municipal law completed and published prior to the end of the quarter in which such allocation is made, which special population census shall include the entire area of the county; provided that such special population census shall not be taken more than once in every two years.

(D) The quarterly allocation and payment of cash to cities, towns, villages and school districts provided for under this paragraph and under paragraph three of this subdivision and under subdivision (b) of this section may be made after payment by the state comptroller to the county of the net collections subject to such allocation and receipt by the county commissioner of finance of the quarterly settlement report issued by the department, and may include adjustments for corrections applicable to such allocations. All ratios established by the county commissioner of finance with respect to allocations to cities, towns, villages and school districts under this subdivision and under subdivision (b) of this section shall be carried to four decimal places. The allocation of net collections and payment of cash provided for under this paragraph and under paragraph three of this subdivision and under subdivision (b) of this section shall be made to a town based upon the population of the town less the population of any village therein, provided that a town/village or village/town shall be deemed a village for the purpose of determining such allocation. The allocation of net collections and payment of cash provided for under this paragraph and under paragraph three of this subdivision and under subdivision (b) of this section shall be applied by the cities, towns, villages and school districts receiving such allocation and payment as a credit against the taxes upon real property imposed by such municipalities and school districts, respectively. The allocation and payment received by towns shall be credited against real property taxes in either the general fund town-wide or the town outside village fund or a combination thereof.

(3) The county shall allocate and credit or pay one-sixth of net collections from such taxes imposed pursuant to subdivision (a) of section twelve hundred ten of this article to the area of the county outside any city imposing sales and compensating use taxes at a rate of one and one-half percent or greater pursuant to the authority of subdivision (a) or at any rate pursuant to the authority of subdivision (b) of section twelve hundred ten of this article as follows:

(A) Seventy percent of such net collections shall be retained by the county to be used for any county purpose.

(B) Ten percent of such net collections shall be allocated and paid in the manner set forth in subparagraph (B) of paragraph two of this subdivision.

(C) Twenty percent of such net collections shall be allocated and paid in the manner set forth in subparagraph (C) of paragraph two of this subdivision.

(b) If the county of Westchester imposes the additional one percent rate of sales and compensating use tax authorized by clause forty-two of subparagraph (i) of the opening paragraph of section twelve hundred ten of this article, the county shall allocate and credit or pay net collections from such additional one percent rate in the manner set forth in paragraph three of subdivision (a) of this section with respect to the area of the county outside any city imposing sales and compensating use taxes at a rate of one and one-half percent or greater pursuant to the authority of subdivision (a) of section twelve hundred ten of this article or at any rate pursuant to the authority of subdivision (b) of section twelve hundred ten of this article.

(c) Nothing in this section shall be construed to impair the powers of a city currently imposing sales and compensating use taxes pursuant to the authority of section twelve hundred ten of this article from continuing to do so in accordance with law. No school district in any city imposing such sales and compensating use taxes shall be entitled to receive a cash allocation and payment under paragraph two or three of subdivision (a) or under subdivision (b) of this section. No city, town or village authorized or entitled to receive an allocation under subparagraph (C) of paragraph two or subparagraph (C) of paragraph three of subdivision (a) or under subdivision (b) of this section shall be authorized or entitled to receive any cash allocation under section twelve hundred sixty-two of this article. * NB Expires November 30, 2020
