         1.  Any moneys appropriated for state aid shall be paid to the
      office of treasurer of state for allocation to the association of
      Iowa fairs.  The association shall distribute the moneys to eligible
      fairs pursuant to this chapter.
         2. a.  The association shall maintain a list of each fair in a
      county which is a member of the association and conducts a fair event
      in that county as provided in this chapter.  If a county has more
      than one fair event, the association shall list the name of each fair
      conducting a fair event in that county for three or more years.  The
      association shall not make a payment to a fair under this chapter
      unless the fair complies with section 174.9, the name of the fair
      appears on the association's list, and the fair is a member in good
      standing according to the bylaws of the association.
         b.  The association shall prepare a report at the end of each
      fiscal year concerning the state aid that it received, the manner in
      which such aid was allocated to eligible fairs, and the manner in
      which the aid was expended by the fairs.  The association shall
      submit the report to the governor and the general assembly by
      February 1 of each year.  The association shall not use moneys
      appropriated for state aid, or interest earned on such moneys, for
      administrative or other expenses.
         3.  The association's board of directors shall determine the
      amount of state aid allocated to each eligible fair.
         4.  If no fair in a county is eligible to receive state aid, that
      county's share shall be divided equally among the eligible fairs.
