It is the intent that these funds be appropriated annually as a part of the state's general apportionment funds for the community colleges.(e) When a community college district enters into a lease or lease-purchase agreement with the State Public Works Board pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 15820.55, the district shall, as a part of that lease or lease-purchase agreement, authorize the chancellor and Controller to withhold from its annual apportionment the amount of funds necessary to satisfy its annual lease obligation to the Public Works Board. The agreement shall include authorization to withhold the additional apportionment amount and the amount determined to be the district's proportional share of the lease or lease-purchase obligation as determined pursuant to subdivision (d). The authorization shall have precedence over other expenditure obligations of the district. The chancellor shall certify the amounts, by district, to the Controller. The Controller shall withhold the amount so reported for each district and shall, acting on behalf of each district, transfer the appropriate amount from Section B of the State School Fund to the Public Works Board for the purpose of payment of the debt service obligation for the bonds sold to finance the projects.Added by Stats. 1986, Ch. 1224, Sec. 5.
