  1 19 fiscal year shall not revert to the general fund of the state
  1 20 but shall remain in the emergency medical services fund,
  1 21 notwithstanding section 8.33.  The fund is established to
  1 22 assist counties by matching, on a dollar-for-dollar basis,
  1 23 moneys spent by a county for the acquisition of equipment for
  1 24 the provision of emergency medical services and by providing
  1 25 grants to counties for education and training in the delivery
  1 26 of emergency medical services, as provided in this section and

  1 28 section shall apply to the emergency medical services division
  1 29 of the department.  The department shall adopt rules
  1 30 concerning the application and awarding process for the
  1 31 matching funds and the criteria for the allocation of moneys
  1 32 in the fund if the moneys are insufficient to meet the
  1 33 emergency medical services needs of the counties.  Moneys
  1 34 allocated by the department to a county for emergency medical
  1 35 service purposes may be used for equipment or training and
  2  1 education as determined by the board of supervisors pursuant
  2  2 to section 422D.6.

  2 13 made in the appearance of the property since the finding.  The
  2 14 sheriff or chief of police shall send a copy of the affidavit
  2 15 to the county auditor who shall enter a description of the
  2 16 property and the value thereof of the property, as nearly as
  2 17 the auditor can determine it, in the auditor's lost property
  2 18 book, together with the copy of the affidavit of the finder.
