Notwithstanding any provisions of this article to the contrary, the State Allocation Board may appropriate to the Marysville Joint Unified School District a sum not to exceed seven hundred thousand dollars ($700,000) for costs incurred in repairing damage at Lindhurst High School, which was constructed pursuant to this article as a replacement of facilities not complying with earthquake safety requirements. The need for the repair of Lindhurst High School may have been caused by improper construction or design. Therefore, the proceeds received from any insurance or arbitration award, or any other action, shall be paid by the district to the board as a direct reduction in the apportionment made under this section.
