The population will be determined by the last general census when applicable. When a general census number is not applicable, population shall be estimated for each county by the state department of commerce and such estimated population number shall be certified to each health district by not later than April 1.
(2) Thirty percent (30%) of the amount to be contributed by the counties shall be apportioned among the counties within the district on the basis of taxable market value for assessment purposes. The proportion of the total taxable market value for assessment purposes of each county as compared to the total taxable market value for assessment purposes of the health district shall be the proportion by which such county shall share in the contribution of funds for the maintenance of the health district, pursuant to this subsection. Total taxable market value for assessment purposes shall mean the total taxable market value for assessment purposes as computed by the county assessor for the preceding full calendar year. Taxable market value for each county shall be certified to the health districts by the state tax commission for the preceding year.
