(2) The county assessor shall certify to the Commissioner of Education the tax levies of each school district and, for levies certified prior to January 1, 2017, learning community in which school land or saline land is located and the last appraised value of such school land, which value shall be the same percentage of the appraised value as the percentage of the assessed value is of market value in subsection (2) of section 77-201 for the purpose of applying the applicable tax levies for each district and, for levies certified prior to January 1, 2017, learning community in determining the distribution to the districts of such amounts. The school board of any school district and, for levies certified prior to January 1, 2017, the learning community coordinating council of any learning community in which there is located any leased or undeeded school land or saline land subject to this section may appeal to the Board of Educational Lands and Funds for a reappraisement of such school land if such school board or learning community coordinating council deems the land not appraised in proportion to the value of adjoining land of the same or similar value. The Board of Educational Lands and Funds shall proceed to investigate the facts involved in such appeal and, if the contention of the school board or learning community coordinating council is correct, make the proper reappraisement. The value calculation in this subsection shall be used by the Commissioner of Education for making distributions in each school fiscal year.
