Whereupon, it shall be the duty of the Comptroller to issue his or her warrant on the State Treasury, payable to Pickens County, in an amount equal to the amount so certified by the Commissioner of Revenue as having been collected for the use of Pickens County and paid into the State Treasury.
(b) The Department of Revenue shall charge Pickens County for collecting the special taxes levied by this subpart an amount of percentage of total collections as may be agreed upon by the Commissioner of Revenue and the Pickens County Commission, but the charge shall not, in any event, exceed 10 percent of the total amount of special county taxes collected under this subpart within the county.
