as an estimated receipt for the next fiscal year. Quarterly, upon receipt of the money from the State, the county treasurer shall

deposit an amount of money equal to the percentage so apportioned and allocated to

the credit of the city or town fund to be used for city or town purposes, and the

balance remaining must be deposited in the county general fund and must be expended

for county purposes. (c) One twenty-fifth of the license fee imposed by the provisions of NRS 463.370 on gross revenue which exceeds $134,000 per calendar month that is paid pursuant
