Any rental tax levied pursuant to the provisions of this section shall be collected, administered, and enforced, to the extent feasible, pursuant to section 29-2-106, C.R.S.(II)
The department of revenue shall perform, on an annual basis, an analysis to determine the net incremental cost of such collection, administration, and enforcement. The department of revenue shall retain only the amount determined to be necessary by the cost analysis, and in no event shall that amount exceed three and one-third percent of the amount collected. Such amount retained shall be transmitted to the state treasurer, who shall credit the same to the general fund, and such amount shall be subject to appropriations by the general assembly for the net incremental cost of such collection, administration, and enforcement.(3)

During the month of January of each year, the county treasurer of any county which levies a rental tax pursuant to this section shall calculate, for such county and each political subdivision located within the boundaries of such county, the percentage which the dollar amount of ad valorem taxes levied by each such political entity is of the aggregate dollar amount of ad valorem taxes levied in such county during the preceding calendar year. The percentages so calculated shall be used for the apportionment between the county itself and each political subdivision located within such county of the aggregate amount of rental tax revenue to be distributed by the department of revenue to the county treasurer during the current calendar year.(b)
All rental taxes collected by the county treasurer shall be apportioned, credited, and distributed to the county and to each political subdivision located within such county on the tenth day of each month for all rental taxes collected during the immediately preceding month.
