The review shall be paid for by each project owner. The review shall examine patronage from outside the metropolitan statistical area as defined by the United States Office of Management and Budget in which the project is located, sales data, and employment records to determine the project owner's continued compliance with the provisions of the act. The project owner shall comply with the provisions of this subsection or be subject to the recapture provisions of this section. If it is determined that the project owner was not in compliance, the municipality may recapture all or a portion of the incentives provided under the act.
(2) If the taxpayer fails to meet the requirements contained in the agreement for the project either by the end of the fourth year after the end of the year the application was submitted or for the entire entitlement period, all or a portion of the incentives provided under the act shall be recaptured on behalf of the municipality.
(3) Notwithstanding any other limitations contained in the laws of this state, collection of any taxes deemed to be underpayments by this section shall be allowed for a period of four years after the end of the entitlement period.
(4) Any amounts due under this section shall be recaptured notwithstanding other allowable incentives and shall not be subsequently refunded under any provision of the act unless the recapture was in error.
(5) The recapture required by this section shall not occur if (a) the failure to maintain the required levels of employment or investment was caused by an act of God or national emergency or (b) the cost of recapture would exceed the amount to be recaptured in the opinion of the municipality.
(6) The Nebraska Advantage Transformational Tourism and Redevelopment Act Cash Fund is created. The fund shall be used by the department to carry out its duties under this section. Any money in the fund available for investment shall be invested by the state investment officer pursuant to the Nebraska Capital Expansion Act and the Nebraska State Funds Investment Act.
