Sec. 37. (a) Subject to subsection (b), the board shall administer the fund in the following manner:

(1) In each state fiscal year, the board may retain the lesser of:

(A) ten percent (10%) of the statewide 911 fees deposited in the fund in the previous state fiscal year;  or

(B) the amount of fees deposited in the fund in the previous state fiscal year that would provide for the operating expenses of the statewide 911 system during the state fiscal year for which the fees are retained;

to pay the board's expenses in administering this chapter and to develop, operate, and maintain a statewide 911 system.  The board may decrease the amount of fees retained by the board under this subdivision.

(2) After retaining the amount set forth in subdivision (1), the board shall distribute to the counties the remainder of the statewide 911 fees in the fund.  With respect to any state fiscal year beginning after June 30, 2015, the board shall first ensure a distribution to each county in an amount that is equal to the total amount of statewide 911 fees distributed to the county during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2014.

(3) If any statewide 911 fees remain in the fund after the distributions ensured under subdivision (2), the board shall distribute the fees as follows:

(A) Ninety percent (90%) of the fees shall be distributed to the counties based upon each county's percentage of the state's population.

(B) Ten percent (10%) of the fees shall be distributed equally among the counties.

(b) The board may not distribute money in the fund in a manner that impairs the ability of the board to fulfill its management and administrative obligations under this chapter.
