before the first day of August in each year thereafter, the school	435
employees retirement board shall certify to the treasurer of state	436
the amount needed to pay the cost of the additional payments	437
required under this section for the preceding fiscal year. Upon	438
receipt of these certifications, the treasurer of state shall pay	439
the amount certified.	440

Sec. 3318.084. (A) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary	441
in Chapter 3318. of the Revised Code, a school district board may	442
apply any local donated contribution toward theeither or both of	443
the following:	444

(1) The district's portion of the basic project cost of a	445
project under sections 3318.01 to 3318.20 of the Revised Code and	446
may use such local donated contribution to reduce the amount of	447
bonds the district otherwise must issue in order to receive state	448
assistance under those sections;	449

(2) An offset of all or part of a district's obligation to	450
levy the tax described in division (B) of section 3318.05 of the	451
Revised Code, which shall be applied only in the manner prescribed	452
in division (B) of this section.	453

(B) No school district board shall apply any local donated	454
contribution under division (A)(2) of this section unless the Ohio	455
school facilities commission first approves that application.	456

Upon the request of the school district board to apply	457
local donated contribution under division (A)(2) of this section,	458
the commission in consultation with the department of taxation	459
shall determine the amount of total revenue that likely would be	460
generated by one-half mill of the tax described in division (B) of	461
section 3318.05 of the Revised Code over the entire	462
twenty-three-year period required under that section and shall	463
deduct from that amount any amount of local donated contribution	464
that the board has committed to apply under division (A)(2) of	465
this section. The commission then shall determine in consultation	466
with the department of taxation the rate of tax over twenty-three	467
years necessary to generate the amount of a one-half mill tax not	468
offset by the local donated contribution. Notwithstanding	469
anything to the contrary in section 3318.06, 3318.061, or 3318.361	470
of the Revised Code, the rate determined by the commission shall	471
be the rate for which the district board shall seek elector	472
approval under those sections to meet its obligation under	473
division (B) of section 3318.05 of the Revised Code. In the case	474
of a complete offset of the district's obligation under division	475
(B) of section 3318.05 of the Revised Code, the district shall not	476
be required to levy the tax otherwise required under that section.	477
At the end of the twenty-three-year period of the tax required	478
under division (B) of section 3318.05 of the Revised Code, whether	479
or not the tax is actually levied, the commission in consultation	480
of the department of taxation shall recalculate the amount that	481
would have been generated by the tax if it had been levied at	482
one-half mill. If the total amount actually generated over that	483
period from both the tax that was actually levied and any local	484
donated contribution applied under division (A)(2) of this section	485
is less than the amount that would have been raised by a one-half	486
mill tax, the district shall pay any difference. If the total	487
amount actually raised in such manner is greater than the amount	488
that would have been raised by a one-half mill tax the difference	489
shall be zero and no payments shall be made by either the district	490
or the commission.	491

(C) As used in this section, "local donated contribution"	492
means either of the following:	493

(A)(1) Any moneys irrevocably donated or granted to a school	494
district board by a source other than the state which the board	495
has the authority to apply to the school district's project under	496
sections 3318.01 to 3318.20 of the Revised Code and which the	497
board has pledged for that purpose by resolution adopted by a	498
majority of its members;	499

(B)(2) Any irrevocable letter of credit issued on behalf of	500
a school district or any cash a school district has on hand,	501
including any year-end operating fund balances, that can be spent	502
for classroom facilities, either of which the school district	503
board has encumbered for payment of the school district's share of	504
its project under sections 3318.01 to 3318.20 of the Revised Code	505
and either of which has been approved by the Ohio school	506
facilities commission in consultation with the department of	507
education.	508

(D) No state moneys shall be released for a project to which	509
this section applies until any local donated local contribution	510
authorized under this section is first deposited into the school	511
district's project construction fund, if applied under division	512
(A)(1) of this section, or into the district's capital and	513
maintenance fund if applied under division (A)(2) of this section.	514
