average enrollment at the time of the last enrollment adjustment
request submitted pursuant to this subsection;

request submitted for the fiscal biennium commencing July 1,
2018 shall apply the formula in paragraph (i) of this

"annual weighted average enrollment at the time of the last
enrollment adjustment request submitted pursuant to this
subsection";
(iii) Any funding increase or decrease as determined
by the state legislature shall be distributed in proportion to
the funding amounts determined in W.S. 21-18-205(c).
