The state licensing authority shall transfer two hundred fifty dollars of the fee to the marijuana cash fund and submit two hundred fifty dollars to the local jurisdiction in which the license is proposed to be issued.
  2. Except as provided in subsection (1) of this section, the application fee for a retail marijuana business is five thousand dollars. The state licensing authority shall transfer two thousand five hundred dollars of the fee to the marijuana cash fund and remit two thousand five hundred dollars to the local jurisdiction in which the license is proposed to be issued.

If the application fee amount is changed, it must be split evenly between the marijuana cash fund and the local jurisdiction in which the license is proposed to be issued.
