No allocations shall be made from the fund for local buildings or facilities that qualified for state or federal assistance under the Disaster Assistance Act (Chapter 7.5 (commencing with Section 8680)) for retrofitting, reconstruction, repair, replacement, or relocation of structures damaged by a
disaster until the office determines either: (1) that reasonable efforts have been made to
secure other state and federal funds, or (2) that the other sources of funding are insufficient to make the necessary seismic improvements. Similarly, no allocations from the fund shall be made for state buildings or facilities unless the Department of Finance determines either: (1) the responsible agency has made reasonable efforts to secure other state and federal funds, or (2) that the other sources of funding are insufficient to correct state buildings or facilities that are seismically unsafe or suffer from other safety deficiencies.

(b)
Any local government may apply to the State Office of Historic Preservation for its determination as to whether a structure meeting the description set forth in subdivision (a) shall be demolished, destroyed, or significantly altered. That determination shall be based upon the extent of damage to the structure, the structure’s historic significance, and any other factor deemed by the State Office of Historic Preservation to be relevant. In making that determination, the State Office of Historic Preservation shall consider the recommendation of a team selected by the State Office of Historic Preservation composed of three residents with historic preservation expertise who reside in the affected county.
