Notwithstanding the provisions of section 137.720 , in all counties which become counties of the first classification after September 1, 1996, one percent of all ad valorem taxes allocable to the county and each taxing authority within the county shall continue to be deducted from taxes collected on the first five hundred million dollars of assessed valuation, and one-half percent collected on the remainder, and deposited in the assessment fund. The one-percent fee shall be assigned among the political subdivisions by the assessor, who shall determine the percentage of total valuation in the county divided into five hundred million dollars.
