Not more than 75 percent of the real property taxes the municipality that created the land bank collected on real property, excluding any school district or county ad valorem tax, conveyed by a land bank under the laws of this state shall be remitted to the land bank. The real property taxes of any other taxing unit, as to real property of the land bank, may also be allocated to the land bank in a similar manner under an interlocal agreement between the other taxing unit and the land bank. The specific percentage of those taxes to be remitted shall be established by ordinance, resolution, or interlocal cooperation agreement of the land bank. The allocation of property tax revenue shall begin with the first taxable year following the date of conveyance and shall continue for a period of five years. The funds shall be remitted to the land bank in accordance with the administrative procedures established by the assessor-collector of the county in which the land bank is located. The allocation of property tax revenue may not occur if those taxes have been previously allocated to a tax increment reinvestment zone, or to secure a debt of the municipality or other taxing unit, unless the municipality or other taxing unit enters into an agreement with the land bank for the remittance of those funds to the land bank.
