3. (a) A county may not impose a property tax
levy after December 31, 2008, for the county general fund to the extent
that the levy is for the reimbursement of the department of correction
under IC 11-10-2-3 (before its repeal by P.L.146-2008) or a related
provision for the costs of keeping delinquent offenders.
(b) The obligation to pay the costs of keeping delinquent offenders
(as defined in IC 11-8-1-9), to the extent that the costs are for services
delivered after December 31, 2008, is transferred from the counties to
the state. The obligation transferred includes the costs of using after
December 31, 2008, an institution or a facility in Indiana for providing
educational services that, before January 1, 2009, were chargeable to
a county family and children's fund, a county office, or a county under
IC 20-26-11-12, IC 20-26-11-13, or IC 20-33-2-29.
(c) The following definitions apply throughout this subsection:
(1) "Account" means an obligation of a county under IC 11-10-2-3 (before its repeal by P.L.146-2008) or another law to
reimburse the state, including the department of correction, for
the cost of keeping a delinquent offender before January 1, 2009.
(2) "Delinquent account" means an account that has not been paid
to the state before six (6) months after the account is forwarded
under this section or IC 4-24-7-4 (before its amendment by

All accounts accruing before January 1, 2009, and not previously
forwarded to a county auditor, and any reconciliations for any period
before January 1, 2009, shall be forwarded to the county auditor before
March 16, 2009. Upon receipt of an account, the county auditor shall
draw a warrant on the treasurer of the county for the payment of the
account, which shall be paid from the funds of the county that were
appropriated for the payment. The county council of each county shall
appropriate sufficient funds to pay these accounts.
(d) A county and the department of correction may enter into
agreements to resolve any issues arising under P.L.146-2008
concerning payments to vendors, payments to the county, payments to
the state (including payments due for commitments before January 1,

guardian, or custodian, and other matters affected by P.L.146-2008.
Notwithstanding P.L.146-2008, the agreement, if approved by the
