SECTION 75-75.9
75. It is the intent of the Legislature in enacting this chapter to fully implement Article XIII A of the California Constitution and to promote increased equity among taxpayers by enrolling and making adjustments of taxes resulting from changes in assessed value due to changes in ownership and completion of new construction at the time they occur. The Legislature finds and declares that under the law in effect prior to the enactment of this chapter, recognition of these increases is delayed from four to 16 months, which results in an unwarranted reduction of taxes for some taxpayers with a proportionate and inequitable shift of the tax burden to other taxpayers. It is also the intent of the Legislature that the provisions of this chapter shall be limited to assessments on the supplemental roll which are authorized by the provisions of this chapter and none of its provisions shall be applied, construed, or used as a basis for interpreting legislative intent when determining the effect of any other provision of this division. The Legislature finds and declares that the supplemental assessment system created by this chapter involves practical tax administration considerations which require unique solutions. Except as expressly provided in Article 2.5 (commencing with Section 75.18), these solutions are not appropriate to the general assessment of property under the provisions of Chapter 3 (commencing with Section 401) of Part 2 and the adoption of the supplemental roll assessment system is not intended to affect the valuation or assessment provisions applicable to the regular assessment roll. 75.1. Except where the context or the specific provisions of this chapter otherwise require, all of the following apply: (a) The definitions in this article govern the construction of this chapter. (b) The other provisions of this division apply to assessments made pursuant to this chapter. (c) The taxes due pursuant to this chapter are in addition to any other taxes due under this division. 75.2. "Current roll" means the roll for the fiscal year during which the change in ownership occurs or the new construction is completed. 75.3. "The roll being prepared" means the roll for the fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the change in ownership occurs or the new construction is completed. 75.4. "Current tax rate" means the tax rate applicable to the current roll, including any rate in excess of the limitation prescribed by subdivision (a) of Section 1 of Article XIII A of the California Constitution. 75.5. "Property" means and includes manufactured homes subject to taxation under Part 13 (commencing with Section 5800) and real property, other than the following: (a) Fixtures that are normally valued as a separate appraisal unit from a structure. (b) Newly created taxable possessory interests, established by month-to-month agreements in publicly owned real property, having a full cash value of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) or less. 75.6. "Fiscal year" means a fiscal year beginning July 1 and ending June 30. 75.7. "Supplemental roll" means the roll prepared or amended in accordance with the provisions of this chapter and containing properties which have changed ownership or had new construction completed. 75.8. "New base year value" means the full cash value of property on the date it changes ownership or of new construction on the date it is completed. 75.9. "Taxable value" means the base year full value adjusted for any given lien date as required by law or the full cash value for the same date, whichever is less. In the case of real property which, prior to the date of the change in ownership or completion of new construction, was assessed by the board pursuant to Section 19 of Article XIII of the California Constitution, "taxable value" means that portion of the state-assessed value determined by the board to be properly allocable to the property which is subject to the supplemental assessment.
