The general assembly may annually appropriate up to three million dollars from the state general revenue fund to each convention and sports complex fund created pursuant to section 67.639 , provided that for an existing sports facility located in a first class county with a charter form of government which contains part of a city having a population of three hundred fifty thousand inhabitants or more or any city with a population greater than three hundred fifty thousand, located in more than one county, such county or city has entered into a contract or lease with a professional sports team affiliated with or franchised by the National Football League, the National Basketball Association, the National Hockey League, or the American League or the National League of Major League Baseball. No moneys shall be transferred pursuant to this section to the benefit of a sports complex for a county in any year unless each professional sports team which leases playing facilities within the county continue to lease the same playing facilities which were leased on August 28, 1989. Each convention and sports complex fund shall be administered by the county or city and used to carry out the provisions of sections 67.638 to 67.645 .

2. Each city or county which has a convention and sports complex fund established pursuant to the laws of this state which administers a convention and sports complex fund, prior to receipt of any appropriations pursuant to this section shall enact or promulgate ordinances, or rules and regulations which provide, pursuant to the terms and provisions of section 70.859 , for the purchase of goods and services and for construction of capital improvements for the sports complex. In no event shall more than three million dollars be transferred from the state to any one such convention and sports complex fund in any fiscal year pursuant to this section, and in no event shall any moneys be transferred from the state to any convention and sports complex fund for the planning, development, construction, maintenance or operation of any facility after June 30, 1999. Only one such transfer of state funds shall be made to any convention and sports complex fund after June 30, 1997, provided that any convention and sports complex fund which was appropriated state moneys prior to July 1, 1997, for the construction, maintenance or operation of a facility shall continue to receive state moneys, subject to appropriation.
