(1) Within ten (10) days after the organization of a highway board, it shall be the duty of the commissioners to pay over to the treasurer of the highway district the proper share of the district’s funds in the highway and bridge fund of the county, the share being ascertained and determined as follows: From the total amount of the highway and bridge funds, consisting of the balance, if any, on hand at the beginning of the current calendar year, augmented by the amount of whatever taxes may have been subsequently collected and paid into the highway and bridge funds, there shall be deducted the amount of any payments made from the funds since the beginning of the calendar year and also any amount needed to make good any deficiency in the funds that may have existed at the beginning of that year. The resulting amount is, for the purpose of the computation, termed the net highway and bridge fund. The highway district’s contribution to it is an amount which bears the same ratio that the amount of the highway and bridge ad valorem taxes levied by the county within the highway district in the preceding year (less twenty-five per cent (25%) of the highway fund levied within any included cities), bears to the total amount of highway and bridge ad valorem taxes levied in the county in the preceding year. The proper share for the highway district in the highway and bridge fund is, for the purpose of this section, ninety-five per cent (95%) of the highway district’s contribution to the net highway and bridge fund.
(2) All moneys thereafter coming into the county highway and bridge funds by reason of county levies made prior to the organization of the highway district, but which may not, at the time of the organization, have been collected by the county, shall as soon as collected, be accounted for and apportioned by the methods set forth above, and the highway district’s proper share in it paid over to the highway district.
(3) Pending final adjustment and payment of the amounts provided for in this section, the commissioners are authorized to retain a proportion of the funds as shall be required to meet outstanding valid warrants lawfully issued against the county prior to the organization of the highway district and outstanding indebtedness of the county lawfully contracted prior to the organization of the highway district lawfully chargeable and payable out of those funds. This section shall not apply to the proceeds of taxes specially levied to meet the requirements of bonds issued by the county.
