Ninety-eight percent (98%) of the proceeds from the collection of the taxes imposed by §§ 67-3-203 and 67-3-205 shall be allocated to and deposited in the highway fund and two percent (2%) of the proceeds in the general fund for administrative purposes. From the actual proceeds of the taxes, there is established a local government fund in the actual amount of twelve million seventeen thousand dollars ($12,017,000) which shall be distributed to the counties and cities monthly. The local government fund shall be used solely for county roads and city streets.

Before distributing moneys to cities from the proceeds of the taxes imposed by §§ 67-3-203 and 67-3-205 as provided in this subsection (b), the commissioner of finance and administration shall deduct from the cities' share of the local government fund the sum of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) per month, which shall be allocated to the University of Tennessee for the Center for Government Training for the purpose of supporting in-service training for local government officials and employees.
