Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter, the board may grant priority in the apportioning of funds to school districts to those districts which have sold facilities replaced under a previous application and have applied the proceeds therefrom in reduction of prior apportionments to the district. Apportionments so made shall not be in excess of the amount of the proceeds which were applied to prior apportionments subsequent to July 1, 1970, and shall be made only for projects which were approved by the board prior to July 1, 1970.
