(g) Any law to the contrary notwithstanding, the licensing official shall remit all county and municipal sales, gross receipts, and use taxes collected directly to the appropriate county or municipal tax recipient as otherwise provided by law, within 20 days following the last day of the month in which those taxes were collected.
