providing storm water drainage, and for no other purposes, except
as provided in Section 33A of this Article. Any interest earned by
the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore on the monies paid to it
under Section 38A of this Article shall not be used for any purposes
other than those set forth herein. The City of Baltimore shall annu-
ally furnish to the Governor and to the State Roads Commission not
later than January 1 of each year an accounting report showing the
actual costs of the preceding fiscal year and the expenditure budget
of the current fiscal year designed to allow an accurate identification
of those portions of the cost of the Baltimore City Police Department
which are directly attributable to police traffic activities and of the
cost of other highway related activities enumerated herein.

Provided, however, that no such distribution shall be made to
said Mayor and City Council of Baltimore unless it shall have levied,
in its current fiscal year, taxes sufficient to collect a minimum of
one dollar per capita in revenue and unless it shall have certified
a copy of said levy to the State Comptroller; and provided further,
that any monies, otherwise distributable under this section, which
shall not be distributed at the close of the fiscal year of the
Mayor and City Council of Baltimore because of failure of the Mayor
and City Council to make such levy or certification, shall revert to
the Gasoline Tax Fund, to be paid over separately to the State Roads
Commission, for use by the Commission with the other monies re-
ceived from the gasoline tax fund.

Per capita revenue shall be computed for purposes of this section
by using the population figures furnished by the latest federal census
or by an official local census, whichever is latest.

34. Fund for counties and municipalities other than Baltimore City
—In general.

Twenty percent of the monies paid into the Gasoline Tax Fund

during any fiscal year, together with funds added thereto pursuant
to Section 38(3) of this article, shall be used for the benefit of the

counties and municipalities of the State (other than Baltimore City)
as follows:

(a) Allocation to counties in proportion to mileage.—The State
Roads Commission shall allocate for the account of each county a
share determined by the proportion which the total mileage of
county roads in that county bears to the total mileage of county roads

in all the counties, but such share shall not be less than the amount

the county would have received from the former "one and one-half

cent lateral road gasoline tax refund" as apportioned under Section 9

of this article (1939 Code), if said Section 9 had not been repealed

by this act, and to that end the respective shares of all counties shall
be adjusted proportionately as may be necessary. From the share so
determined, the State Roads Commission shall deduct the amount,
if any allocated to a municipality under subsection (b) hereof. The
resulting shares shall constitute the county's share for the purpose

(b) Request by municipality for funds; amount distributable;
special improvement districts in Prince George's County. If any
municipality which is authorized by law to construct or maintain
streets or roads shall request the State Roads Commission in writing
not later than December 31 prior to the beginning of any fiscal year
