    50  through the calendar year  beginning  on  January  first,  two  thousand
    51  seventeen],  the  county  of  Nassau  shall  enact and establish a local

    14  special  local assistance shall be paid and distributed to the towns and
    15  cities on a per capita basis using the population figures in the  latest
    16  decennial  federal  census.  Provided  further, that notwithstanding any

    18  program shall preclude any city or town within such county from preempt-
    19  ing  or  claiming  under  any other section of this chapter the revenues
    20  derived from the additional tax authorized by section twelve hundred ten
    21  of this article. Provided further, that any such town or towns  may,  by

    36  such local assistance program for the villages within such county may be
    37  provided by Nassau county during any calendar year in which such village
    38  local  assistance program is in effect and shall not exceed one-sixth of
    39  the revenues received from the imposition of the three-quarters  percent
    40  sales  and  use  tax  that are remaining after the towns and cities have
    41  received their funding pursuant to the provisions of subdivision one  of
    42  this  section.    The  funding for such village local assistance program
    43  shall be paid and distributed to the villages  on  a  per  capita  basis

    45  Provided further, that the establishment of such village  local  assist-
    46  ance program shall preclude any village within such county from preempt-

    39  by  any town by appropriate resolution and, in any case where there is a
    40  village wholly or partly located within a town, a  resolution  of  every
