"D.  Out of the amounts provided for Financial Assistance to Localities -- General, $2,697,000 the first year from the general fund is provided for transfer by the State Comptroller to the County of Fairfax to correct an error in the distribution of rental car taxes.  The Commonwealth distributed the County of Fairfax's share of these rental car taxes to the City of Fairfax based upon erroneous information submitted by a rental car company with locations in both the County of Fairfax and the City of Fairfax."


Explanation
(This amendment provides for the payment of $2.7 million from the general fund to Fairfax County to correct an error in the distribution of rental car taxes. The state mistakenly distributed these rental car taxes to the City of Fairfax based upon erroneous information submitted by a rental company with locations in both Fairfax County and the City of Fairfax. Although the two localities are currently discussing a payment arrangement, there has been no agreement to date.)
