amounts submitted by each governing body bears to the total amount of
the property taxes reported by all such governing bodies. The
percentage determined for each governing body shall be applied to the

The Controller shall then notify in writing each fiscal officer of
the allocation which will be made for the 1978-79 fiscal year, on or

34 percent--on May 10, 1979, or at an earlier time as may be
requested by the governing body if a determination is made pursuant
to subdivision (b) of this section.
(b) If a governing body certifies that any district which was
allocated funds pursuant to Section 16275 needs such funds earlier
than May 10, 1979, and that such need is based on a determination by
the governing body that such funds are needed in order to continue
providing necessary services, the governing body may request that the
Controller provide such funds prior to May 10, 1979. Upon such
request the Controller shall disburse such funds. When received, the
