(4) If a review finds that the statewide amount of contributions made by lessees of state parks and recreation commission-owned historical sites for the purposes of maintaining or improving such sites has increased, then the legislature intends to extend the expiration date of this tax preference.
(5) In order to obtain the data necessary to perform the review in subsection (4) of this section, the joint legislative audit and review committee may refer to any data collected by the state.
NEW SECTION.  Sec. 3. Section 1 of this act expires January 1, 2034."
