In the event that both or all county boards of education do not concur in the apportionments of such money from the county school service fund prior to the first day of April of any year the county superintendent of schools of both or all counties shall on that date notify the Superintendent of Public Instruction or board of governors who shall, not later than 60 days following notification, make the apportionments.
