    6  for capital outlay purposes. The allocation of such funds is
    7  subject to whether the owner of the land upon which and the
    8  building in which the nonprofit charter school is located
    9  complies with the State Requirements for Educational Facilities.
   10  The value of the millage levy revenue disbursed to the charter
   11  school on an annual basis shall be recorded as a lien against
   12  the charter school’s property in favor of the district school
   13  board, which shall be satisfied in full at such time as the
   14  asset is sold, transferred, or otherwise assigned. Such local
   15  option millage levy liens shall be cumulative and are superior
   16  to any mortgages, liens, or encumbrances on the charter school’s
   17  property. Priority of subsequent disbursements shall relate back
   18  to the date of the original disbursement. Local option millage
   19  levy liens shall have the same priority as real estate taxes.
   20  The recording of a certified copy of the local option millage
   21  levy liens is not required in order to perfect such liens. Any
   22  unexpended millage levy revenue allocations at the close of the
   23  school year shall be reimbursed to the district school board,
   24  and the lien on the property shall be adjusted accordingly. A
   25  charter school that is housed in leased space is not eligible
   26  for a share of local option millage levy revenue.
