    10  decennial  federal  census.  Provided  further, that notwithstanding any
    11  other law to the contrary, the establishment of such special  assistance
    12  program shall preclude any city or town within such county from preempt-

    30  such local assistance program for the villages within such county may be
    31  provided by Nassau county during any calendar year in which such village
    32  local assistance program is in effect and shall not exceed one-sixth  of
    33  the  revenues received from the imposition of the three-quarters percent
    34  sales and use tax that are remaining after the  towns  and  cities  have
    35  received  their funding pursuant to the provisions of subdivision one of
    36  this section.  The funding for such  village  local  assistance  program
    37  shall  be  paid  and  distributed  to the villages on a per capita basis
    38  using the population figures in the  latest  decennial  federal  census.

     2  to such additional one percent rate of such taxes shall be allocated and
     3  distributed to the towns and villages in such county in the same  manner
     4  as  the net collections attributable to such county's three percent rate
