a. To the board of supervisors a pro rata share based upon the percentage of the total property tax dollars levied by the board of supervisors during the above three-year period.

5. From each city's account, the percent of revenues agreed to be distributed to the county in the agreement entered into as provided in section 422B.1, subsection 2, paragraph "a", subparagraph (3), and paragraph "c", shall be deposited into the appropriate county's account to be remitted as provided in subsections 3 and 4.
