REVENUE AND TAXATION CODE
SECTION 99-99.2



99.  (a) For the purposes of the computations required by this
chapter:
   (1) In the case of a jurisdictional change, other than a city
incorporation or a formation of a district as defined in Section
2215, the auditor shall adjust the allocation of property tax revenue
determined pursuant to Section 96 or 96.1, or the annual tax
increment determined pursuant to Section 96.5, for local agencies
whose service area or service responsibility would be altered by the
jurisdictional change, as determined pursuant to subdivision (b) or
(c).
   (2) In the case of a city incorporation, the auditor shall assign
the allocation of property tax revenues determined pursuant to
Section 56810 of the Government Code and the adjustments in tax
revenues that may occur pursuant to Section 56815 of the Government
Code to the newly formed city or district and shall make the
adjustment as determined by Section 56810 in the allocation of
property tax revenue determined pursuant to Section 96 or 96.1 for
each local agency whose service area or service responsibilities
would be altered by the incorporation.
   (3) In the case of a formation of a district as defined in Section
2215, the auditor shall assign the allocation of property tax
revenues determined pursuant to Section 56810 of the Government Code
to the district and shall make the adjustment as determined by
Section 56810 in the allocation of property tax revenue determined
pursuant to Section 96 or 96.1 for each local agency whose service
area or service responsibilities would be altered by the formation.
   (b) Upon the filing of an application or a resolution pursuant to
the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of
2000 (Division 3 (commencing with Section 56000) of Title 5 of the
Government Code), but prior to the issuance of a certificate of
filing, the executive officer shall give notice of the filing to the
assessor and auditor of each county within which the territory
subject to the jurisdictional change is located. This notice shall
specify each local agency whose service area or responsibility will
be altered by the jurisdictional change.
   (1) (A) The county assessor shall provide to the county auditor,
within 30 days of the notice of filing, a report which identifies the
assessed valuations for the territory subject to the jurisdictional
change and the tax rate area or areas in which the territory exists.
   (B) The auditor shall estimate the amount of property tax revenue
generated within the territory that is the subject of the
jurisdictional change during the current fiscal year.
   (2) The auditor shall estimate what proportion of the property tax
revenue determined pursuant to paragraph (1) is attributable to each
local agency pursuant to Sections 96.1 and 96.5.
   (3) Within 45 days of notice of the filing of an application or
resolution, the auditor shall notify the governing body of each local
agency whose service area or service responsibility will be altered
by the amount of, and allocation factors with respect to, property
tax revenue estimated pursuant to paragraph (2) that is subject to a
negotiated exchange.
   (4) Upon receipt of the estimates pursuant to paragraph (3), the
local agencies shall commence negotiations to determine the amount of
property tax revenues to be exchanged between and among the local
agencies. Except as otherwise provided, this negotiation period shall
not exceed 60 days. If a local agency involved in these negotiations
notifies the other local agencies, the county auditor, and the local
agency formation commission in writing of its desire to extend the
negotiating period, the negotiating period shall be 90 days.
   The exchange may be limited to an exchange of property tax
revenues from the annual tax increment generated in the area subject
to the jurisdictional change and attributable to the local agencies
whose service area or service responsibilities will be altered by the
proposed jurisdictional change. The final exchange resolution shall
specify how the annual tax increment shall be allocated in future
years.
   (5) In the event that a jurisdictional change would affect the
service area or service responsibility of one or more special
districts, the board of supervisors of the county or counties in
which the districts are located shall, on behalf of the district or
districts, negotiate any exchange of property tax revenues. Prior to
entering into negotiation on behalf of a district for the exchange of
property tax revenue, the board shall consult with the affected
district. The consultation shall include, at a minimum, notification
to each member and executive officer of the district board of the
pending consultation and provision of adequate opportunity to comment
on the negotiation.
   (6) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the executive
officer shall not issue a certificate of filing pursuant to Section
56658 of the Government Code until the local agencies included in the
property tax revenue exchange negotiation, within the negotiation
period, present resolutions adopted by each such county and city
whereby each county and city agrees to accept the exchange of
property tax revenues.
   (7) In the event that the commission modifies the proposal or its
resolution of determination, any local agency whose service area or
service responsibility would be altered by the proposed
jurisdictional change may request, and the executive officer shall
grant, 30 days for the affected agencies, pursuant to paragraph (4),
to renegotiate an exchange of property tax revenues. Notwithstanding
the time period specified in paragraph (4), if the resolutions
required pursuant to paragraph (6) are not presented to the executive
officer within the 30-day period, all proceedings of the
jurisdictional change shall automatically be terminated.
   (8) In the case of a jurisdictional change that consists of a city'
s qualified annexation of unincorporated territory, an exchange of
property tax revenues between the city and the county shall be
determined in accordance with subdivision (e) if that exchange of
revenues is not otherwise determined pursuant to either of the
following:
   (A) Negotiations completed within the applicable period or periods
as prescribed by this subdivision.
   (B) A master property tax exchange agreement among those local
agencies, as described in subdivision (d).
   For purposes of this paragraph, a qualified annexation of
unincorporated territory means an annexation, as so described, for
which an application or a resolution was filed on or after January 1,
1998, and on or before January 1, 2015.
   (9) No later than the date on which the certificate of completion
of the jurisdictional change is recorded with the county recorder,
the executive officer shall notify the auditor or auditors of the
exchange of property tax revenues and the auditor or auditors shall
make the appropriate adjustments as provided in subdivision (a).
   (c) Whenever a jurisdictional change is not required to be
reviewed and approved by a local agency formation commission, the
local agencies whose service area or service responsibilities would
be altered by the proposed change, shall give notice to the State
Board of Equalization and the assessor and auditor of each county
within which the territory subject to the jurisdictional change is
located. This notice shall specify each local agency whose service
area or responsibility will be altered by the jurisdictional change
and request the auditor and assessor to make the determinations
required pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2) of subdivision (b). Upon
notification by the auditor of the amount of, and allocation factors
with respect to, property tax subject to exchange, the local
agencies, pursuant to the provisions of paragraphs (4) and (6) of
subdivision (b), shall determine the amount of property tax revenues
to be exchanged between and among the local agencies. Notwithstanding
any other provision of law, no such jurisdictional change shall
become effective until each county and city included in these
negotiations agrees, by resolution, to accept the negotiated exchange
of property tax revenues. The exchange may be limited to an exchange
of property tax revenue from the annual tax increment generated in
the area subject to the jurisdictional change and attributable to the
local agencies whose service area or service responsibilities will
be altered by the proposed jurisdictional change. The final exchange
resolution shall specify how the annual tax increment shall be
allocated in future years. Upon the adoption of the resolutions
required pursuant to this section, the adopting agencies shall notify
the auditor who shall make the appropriate adjustments as provided
in subdivision (a). Adjustments in property tax allocations made as
the result of a city or library district withdrawing from a county
free library system pursuant to Section 19116 of the Education Code
shall be made pursuant to Section 19116 of the Education Code, and
this subdivision shall not apply.
   (d) With respect to adjustments in the allocation of property
taxes pursuant to this section, a county and any local agency or
agencies within the county may develop and adopt a master property
tax transfer agreement. The agreement may be revised from time to
time by the parties subject to the agreement.
   (e) (1) An exchange of property tax revenues that is required by
paragraph (8) of subdivision (b) to be determined pursuant to this
subdivision shall be determined in accordance with all of the
following:
   (A) The city and the county shall mutually select a third-party
consultant to perform a comprehensive, independent fiscal analysis,
funded in equal portions by the city and the county, that specifies
estimates of all tax revenues that will be derived from the annexed
territory and the costs of city and county services with respect to
the annexed territory. The analysis shall be completed within a
period not to exceed 30 days, and shall be based upon the general
plan or adopted plans and policies of the annexing city and the
intended uses for the annexed territory. If, upon the completion of
the analysis period, no exchange of property tax revenues is agreed
upon by the city and the county, subparagraph (B) shall apply.
   (B) The city and the county shall mutually select a mediator,
funded in equal portions by those agencies, to perform mediation for
a period not to exceed 30 days. If, upon the completion of the
mediation period, no exchange of property tax revenues is agreed upon
by the city and the county, subparagraph (C) shall apply.
   (C) The city and the county shall mutually select an arbitrator,
funded in equal portions by those agencies, to conduct an advisory
arbitration with the city and the county for a period not to exceed
30 days. At the conclusion of this arbitration period, the city and
the county shall each present to the arbitrator its last and best
offer with respect to the exchange of property tax revenues. The
arbitrator shall select one of the offers and recommend that offer to
the governing bodies of the city and the county. If the governing
body of the city or the county rejects the recommended offer, it
shall do so during a public hearing, and shall, at the conclusion of
that hearing, make written findings of fact as to why the recommended
offer was not accepted.
   (2) Proceedings under this subdivision shall be concluded no more
than 150 days after the auditor provides the notification pursuant to
paragraph (3) of subdivision (b), unless one of the periods
specified in this subdivision is extended by the mutual agreement of
the city and the county. Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
except for those conditions that are necessary to implement an
exchange of property tax revenues determined pursuant to this
subdivision, the local agency formation commission shall not impose
any fiscal conditions upon a city's qualified annexation of
unincorporated territory that is subject to this subdivision.
   (f) Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (g), for the
purpose of determining the amount of property tax to be allocated in
the 1979-80 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter for those
local agencies that were affected by a jurisdictional change which
was filed with the State Board of Equalization after January 1, 1978,
but on or before January 1, 1979. The local agencies shall determine
by resolution the amount of property tax revenues to be exchanged
between and among the affected agencies and notify the auditor of the
determination.
   (g) For the purpose of determining the amount of property tax to
be allocated in the 1979-80 fiscal year and each fiscal year
thereafter, for a city incorporation that was filed pursuant to
Sections 54900 to 54904 after January 1, 1978, but on or before
January 1, 1979, the amount of property tax revenue considered to
have been received by the jurisdiction for the 1978-79 fiscal year
shall be equal to two-thirds of the amount of property tax revenue
projected in the final local agency formation commission staff report
pertaining to the incorporation multiplied by the proportion that
the total amount of property tax revenue received by all
jurisdictions within the county for the 1978-79 fiscal year bears to
the total amount of property tax revenue received by all
jurisdictions within the county for the 1977-78 fiscal year. Except,
however, in the event that the final commission report did not
specify the amount of property tax revenue projected for that
incorporation, the commission shall by October 10 determine pursuant
to Section 54790.3 of the Government Code the amount of property tax
to be transferred to the city.
   The provisions of this subdivision shall also apply to the
allocation of property taxes for the 1980-81 fiscal year and each
fiscal year thereafter for incorporations approved by the voters in
June 1979.
   (h) For the purpose of the computations made pursuant to this
section, in the case of a district formation that was filed pursuant
to Sections 54900 to 54904, inclusive, of the Government Code after
January 1, 1978, but before January 1, 1979, the amount of property
tax to be allocated to the district for the 1979-80 fiscal year and
each fiscal year thereafter shall be determined pursuant to Section
54790.3 of the Government Code.
   (i) For the purposes of the computations required by this chapter,
in the case of a jurisdictional change, other than a change
requiring an adjustment by the auditor pursuant to subdivision (a),
the auditor shall adjust the allocation of property tax revenue
determined pursuant to Section 96 or 96.1 or its predecessor section,
or the annual tax increment determined pursuant to Section 96.5 or
its predecessor section, for each local school district, community
college district, or county superintendent of schools whose service
area or service responsibility would be altered by the jurisdictional
change, as determined as follows:
   (1) The governing body of each district, county superintendent of
schools, or county whose service areas or service responsibilities
would be altered by the change shall determine the amount of property
tax revenues to be exchanged between and among the affected
jurisdictions. This determination shall be adopted by each affected
jurisdiction by resolution. For the purpose of negotiation, the
county auditor shall furnish the parties and the county board of
education with an estimate of the property tax revenue subject to
negotiation.
   (2) In the event that the affected jurisdictions are unable to
agree, within 60 days after the effective date of the jurisdictional
change, and if all the jurisdictions are wholly within one county,
the county board of education shall, by resolution, determine the
amount of property tax revenue to be exchanged. If the jurisdictions
are in more than one county, the State Board of Education shall, by
resolution, within 60 days after the effective date of the
jurisdictional change, determine the amount of property tax to be
exchanged.
   (3) Upon adoption of any resolution pursuant to this subdivision,
the adopting jurisdictions or State Board of Education shall notify
the county auditor who shall make the appropriate adjustments as
provided in subdivision (a).
   (j) For purposes of subdivision (i), the annexation by a community
college district of territory within a county not previously served
by a community college district is an alteration of service area. The
community college district and the county shall negotiate the
amount, if any, of property tax revenues to be exchanged. In these
negotiations, there shall be taken into consideration the amount of
revenue received from the timber yield tax and forest reserve
receipts by the community college district in the area not previously
served. In no event shall the property tax revenue to be exchanged
exceed the amount of property tax revenue collected prior to the
annexation for the purposes of paying tuition expenses of residents
enrolled in the community college district, adjusted each year by the
percentage change in population and the percentage change in the
cost of living, or per capita personal income, whichever is lower,
less the amount of revenue received by the community college district
in the annexed area from the timber yield tax and forest reserve
receipts.
   (k) At any time after a jurisdictional change is effective, any of
the local agencies party to the agreement to exchange property tax
revenue may renegotiate the agreement with respect to the current
fiscal year or subsequent fiscal years, subject to approval by all
local agencies affected by the renegotiation.




99.01.  (a) For the purposes of Section 99, in the case of a
jurisdictional change that will result in a special district
providing one or more services to an area where those services have
not been previously provided by any local agency, the following shall
apply:
   (1) The special district referred to in this subdivision and each
local agency that receives an apportionment of property tax revenue
from the area shall be considered local agencies whose service area
or service responsibility will be altered by the jurisdictional
change.
   (2) The exchange of property tax among those local agencies shall
be limited to property tax revenue from the annual tax increment
generated in the area subject to the jurisdictional change and
attributable to those local agencies.
   (3) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (5) of subdivision
(b) of Section 99, any special district affected by the
jurisdictional change may negotiate on its own behalf, if it so
chooses.
   (4) If a special district involved in the negotiation (other than
the district which will provide one or more services to the area
where those services have not been previously provided) fails to
adopt a resolution providing for the exchange of property tax
revenue, the board of supervisors of the county in the area subject
to the jurisdictional change is located shall determine the exchange
of property tax revenue for that special district.
   (b) The provisions of subdivisions (a), (b), (c), (d), and (j) of
Section 99 not in conflict with this section shall apply. The
jurisdictional changes described in subdivisions (e), (f), (g), (h),
and (i) of Section 99 shall not be affected by the provisions of this
section.



99.02.  (a) For the purposes of the computations required by this
chapter for the 1985-86 fiscal year and fiscal years thereafter, in
the case of any transfer of property tax revenues between local
agencies that is adopted and approved in conformity with subdivisions
(b) and (c), the auditor shall adjust the allocation of property tax
revenue determined pursuant to Section 96.1 or its predecessor
section, or the annual tax increment determined pursuant to Section
96.5 or its predecessor section, for those local agencies whose
allocation would be altered by the transfer.
   (b) Commencing with the 1985-86 fiscal year, any local agency may,
by the adoption of a resolution of its governing body or governing
board, determine to transfer any portion of its property tax revenues
that is allocable to one or more tax rate areas within the local
agency to one or more other local agencies having the same tax rate
area or tax rate areas. Upon the local agency's adoption of the
resolution, the local agency shall notify the board of supervisors of
the county or the city council of the city within which the transfer
of property tax revenues is proposed.
   (c) If the board of supervisors or the city council concurs with
the proposed transfer of property tax revenue, the board or council
shall, by resolution, notify the county auditor of the approved
transfer.
   (d) Upon receipt of notification from the board of supervisors or
the city council, the county auditor shall make the necessary
adjustments specified in subdivision (a).
   (e) Prior to the adoption or approval by any local agency of a
transfer of property tax revenues pursuant to this section, each
local agency that will be affected by the proposed transfer shall
hold a public hearing to consider the effect of the proposed transfer
on fees, charges, assessments, taxes, or other revenues. Notice of
the hearing shall be published pursuant to Section 6061 of the
Government Code in one or more newspapers of general circulation
within each affected local agency.
   (f) No local agency shall transfer property tax revenue pursuant
to this section unless each of the following conditions exists:
   (1) The transferring agency determines that revenues are available
for this purpose.
   (2) The transfer will not result in any increase in the ratio
between the amount of revenues of the transferring agency that are
generated by regulatory licenses, use charges, user fees, or
assessments and the amount of revenues of the transferring agency
used to finance services provided by the transferring agency.
   (3) The transfer will not impair the ability of the transferring
agency to provide existing services.
   (4) The transfer will not result in a reduction of property tax
revenues to school entities.


99.03.  (a) For the purposes of Section 99, in the case of a
jurisdictional change that results in a qualifying city, as defined
in Section 98, providing its own fire protection services in
accordance with Section 25643 of the Government Code in lieu of the
county providing those services, the negotiated exchange of property
tax revenues between the county and the qualifying city pursuant to
subdivision (c) of Section 99 as a result of that jurisdictional
change may also provide for a negotiated adjustment in the amount of
property tax revenue distributed by the auditor to the qualifying
city in accordance with Section 98. The negotiated adjustment may be
made in any amount that does not exceed the amount of property tax
revenue exchanged between the county and the qualifying city.
   (b) This section applies only to exchanges of property tax revenue
affecting the County of Riverside and qualifying cities within that
county.


99.1.  (a) For the purposes of the computations required by this
chapter for the 1986-87 fiscal year and fiscal years thereafter, in
the case of any transfer of property tax revenues between local
agencies that is adopted and approved in conformity with subdivisions
(b) and (c), the county auditor shall adjust the allocation of
property tax revenue determined pursuant to Section 96.1 or its
predecessor section, or the annual tax increment determined pursuant
to Section 96.5 or its predecessor section, for those local agencies
whose allocation would be altered by the transfer.
   (b) Commencing with the 1986-87 fiscal year or any fiscal year
thereafter, a local agency may, by the adoption of a resolution of
its governing board, determine to exchange any portion of its
property tax revenues that is allocable to one or more tax rate
areas, with one or more other local agencies having the same tax rate
area or tax rate areas. Upon the adoption of the resolution, the
governing board of the local agency shall notify the board of
supervisors of the affected county.
   If the transfer of property tax revenues will alter the property
tax revenue allocation of a city, the governing board of the local
agency shall, upon adoption of the resolution, also notify the
affected city.
   (c) If the board of supervisors of the affected county concurs
with the proposed exchange of property tax revenues, it shall, by
resolution, approve the exchange and notify the county auditor. If
the property tax allocation of a city would be affected by the
exchange, the board shall not notify the county auditor pursuant to
this subdivision until the city council of the affected city has, by
resolution, approved the proposed exchange of property tax revenues.
   (d) Upon receipt of notification from the board of supervisors
pursuant to subdivision (c), the county auditor shall make the
necessary adjustments specified in subdivision (a).
   (e) Prior to the adoption by the governing board of a local agency
of a resolution pursuant to subdivision (b), the local agency shall
hold a public hearing to consider the effect of the proposed
transfer. Notice of the hearing shall be published pursuant to
Section 6061 of the Government Code in one or more newspapers of
general circulation within the local agency.
   (f) No local agency shall reallocate property tax revenue pursuant
to this section unless the transfer will not result in any increase
in the ratio between the amount of revenues of the transferring
agency that are generated by regulatory licenses, use charges, user
fees, or assessments and the amount of revenues of the transferring
agency used to finance services provided by it.
   (g) This section applies only to exchanges affecting the Ventura
Regional Sanitation District located within the County of Ventura.



99.2.  No amendment made by any chapter of the Statutes of 1980, or
any year thereafter, to Section 99 of the Revenue and Taxation Code
shall be construed, except as expressly provided therein, to apply to
a jurisdictional change initiated, pursuant to the applicable
provisions of law governing those jurisdictional changes, prior to
the effective date of the amendment. The provisions of Section 99 of
the Revenue and Taxation Code in effect at the time the
jurisdictional change is initiated shall govern the procedures for,
and exchange of, property tax revenues between local agencies whose
service area or service responsibility would be altered by that
jurisdictional change, provided that there shall be no duty to
impound any property tax revenues.

subject to the jurisdictional change is located. This notice shall
specify each local agency whose service area or responsibility will
be altered by the jurisdictional change.
   (1) (A) The county assessor shall provide to the county auditor,
within 30 days of the notice of filing, a report which identifies the

resolution, the auditor shall notify the governing body of each local
agency whose service area or service responsibility will be altered
by the amount of, and allocation factors with respect to, property

not exceed 60 days. If a local agency involved in these negotiations
notifies the other local agencies, the county auditor, and the local
agency formation commission in writing of its desire to extend the
negotiating period, the negotiating period shall be 90 days.
   The exchange may be limited to an exchange of property tax
revenues from the annual tax increment generated in the area subject
to the jurisdictional change and attributable to the local agencies
whose service area or service responsibilities will be altered by the
proposed jurisdictional change. The final exchange resolution shall
specify how the annual tax increment shall be allocated in future
years.
   (5) In the event that a jurisdictional change would affect the
service area or service responsibility of one or more special
districts, the board of supervisors of the county or counties in
which the districts are located shall, on behalf of the district or
districts, negotiate any exchange of property tax revenues. Prior to
entering into negotiation on behalf of a district for the exchange of
property tax revenue, the board shall consult with the affected
district. The consultation shall include, at a minimum, notification

property tax revenues.
   (7) In the event that the commission modifies the proposal or its
resolution of determination, any local agency whose service area or
service responsibility would be altered by the proposed
jurisdictional change may request, and the executive officer shall
grant, 30 days for the affected agencies, pursuant to paragraph (4),
to renegotiate an exchange of property tax revenues. Notwithstanding
the time period specified in paragraph (4), if the resolutions
required pursuant to paragraph (6) are not presented to the executive

jurisdictional change shall automatically be terminated.
   (8) In the case of a jurisdictional change that consists of a city'
s qualified annexation of unincorporated territory, an exchange of
property tax revenues between the city and the county shall be
determined in accordance with subdivision (e) if that exchange of
revenues is not otherwise determined pursuant to either of the
following:
   (A) Negotiations completed within the applicable period or periods
as prescribed by this subdivision.
   (B) A master property tax exchange agreement among those local
agencies, as described in subdivision (d).
   For purposes of this paragraph, a qualified annexation of
unincorporated territory means an annexation, as so described, for
which an application or a resolution was filed on or after January 1,

of the jurisdictional change is recorded with the county recorder,
the executive officer shall notify the auditor or auditors of the
exchange of property tax revenues and the auditor or auditors shall
make the appropriate adjustments as provided in subdivision (a).
   (c) Whenever a jurisdictional change is not required to be
reviewed and approved by a local agency formation commission, the
local agencies whose service area or service responsibilities would
be altered by the proposed change, shall give notice to the State
Board of Equalization and the assessor and auditor of each county
within which the territory subject to the jurisdictional change is
located. This notice shall specify each local agency whose service
area or responsibility will be altered by the jurisdictional change
and request the auditor and assessor to make the determinations
required pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2) of subdivision (b). Upon
notification by the auditor of the amount of, and allocation factors
with respect to, property tax subject to exchange, the local
agencies, pursuant to the provisions of paragraphs (4) and (6) of
subdivision (b), shall determine the amount of property tax revenues
to be exchanged between and among the local agencies. Notwithstanding
any other provision of law, no such jurisdictional change shall
become effective until each county and city included in these
negotiations agrees, by resolution, to accept the negotiated exchange
of property tax revenues. The exchange may be limited to an exchange
of property tax revenue from the annual tax increment generated in
the area subject to the jurisdictional change and attributable to the
local agencies whose service area or service responsibilities will
be altered by the proposed jurisdictional change. The final exchange
resolution shall specify how the annual tax increment shall be
allocated in future years. Upon the adoption of the resolutions
required pursuant to this section, the adopting agencies shall notify
the auditor who shall make the appropriate adjustments as provided
in subdivision (a). Adjustments in property tax allocations made as
the result of a city or library district withdrawing from a county
free library system pursuant to Section 19116 of the Education Code
shall be made pursuant to Section 19116 of the Education Code, and
this subdivision shall not apply.
   (d) With respect to adjustments in the allocation of property
taxes pursuant to this section, a county and any local agency or
agencies within the county may develop and adopt a master property
tax transfer agreement. The agreement may be revised from time to
time by the parties subject to the agreement.
   (e) (1) An exchange of property tax revenues that is required by
paragraph (8) of subdivision (b) to be determined pursuant to this
subdivision shall be determined in accordance with all of the
following:
   (A) The city and the county shall mutually select a third-party
consultant to perform a comprehensive, independent fiscal analysis,
funded in equal portions by the city and the county, that specifies
estimates of all tax revenues that will be derived from the annexed
territory and the costs of city and county services with respect to
the annexed territory. The analysis shall be completed within a
period not to exceed 30 days, and shall be based upon the general
plan or adopted plans and policies of the annexing city and the
intended uses for the annexed territory. If, upon the completion of
the analysis period, no exchange of property tax revenues is agreed
upon by the city and the county, subparagraph (B) shall apply.
   (B) The city and the county shall mutually select a mediator,
funded in equal portions by those agencies, to perform mediation for
a period not to exceed 30 days. If, upon the completion of the
mediation period, no exchange of property tax revenues is agreed upon
by the city and the county, subparagraph (C) shall apply.
   (C) The city and the county shall mutually select an arbitrator,
funded in equal portions by those agencies, to conduct an advisory
arbitration with the city and the county for a period not to exceed
30 days. At the conclusion of this arbitration period, the city and
the county shall each present to the arbitrator its last and best
offer with respect to the exchange of property tax revenues. The
arbitrator shall select one of the offers and recommend that offer to
the governing bodies of the city and the county. If the governing
body of the city or the county rejects the recommended offer, it
shall do so during a public hearing, and shall, at the conclusion of
that hearing, make written findings of fact as to why the recommended
offer was not accepted.
   (2) Proceedings under this subdivision shall be concluded no more
than 150 days after the auditor provides the notification pursuant to
paragraph (3) of subdivision (b), unless one of the periods
specified in this subdivision is extended by the mutual agreement of
the city and the county. Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
except for those conditions that are necessary to implement an
exchange of property tax revenues determined pursuant to this
subdivision, the local agency formation commission shall not impose
any fiscal conditions upon a city's qualified annexation of
unincorporated territory that is subject to this subdivision.
   (f) Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (g), for the
purpose of determining the amount of property tax to be allocated in
the 1979-80 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter for those
local agencies that were affected by a jurisdictional change which
was filed with the State Board of Equalization after January 1, 1978,
but on or before January 1, 1979. The local agencies shall determine
by resolution the amount of property tax revenues to be exchanged
between and among the affected agencies and notify the auditor of the
determination.
   (g) For the purpose of determining the amount of property tax to
be allocated in the 1979-80 fiscal year and each fiscal year
thereafter, for a city incorporation that was filed pursuant to
Sections 54900 to 54904 after January 1, 1978, but on or before
January 1, 1979, the amount of property tax revenue considered to
have been received by the jurisdiction for the 1978-79 fiscal year
shall be equal to two-thirds of the amount of property tax revenue
projected in the final local agency formation commission staff report
pertaining to the incorporation multiplied by the proportion that
the total amount of property tax revenue received by all
jurisdictions within the county for the 1978-79 fiscal year bears to
the total amount of property tax revenue received by all
jurisdictions within the county for the 1977-78 fiscal year. Except,
however, in the event that the final commission report did not
specify the amount of property tax revenue projected for that
incorporation, the commission shall by October 10 determine pursuant
to Section 54790.3 of the Government Code the amount of property tax
to be transferred to the city.
   The provisions of this subdivision shall also apply to the
allocation of property taxes for the 1980-81 fiscal year and each
fiscal year thereafter for incorporations approved by the voters in
June 1979.
   (h) For the purpose of the computations made pursuant to this
section, in the case of a district formation that was filed pursuant
to Sections 54900 to 54904, inclusive, of the Government Code after
January 1, 1978, but before January 1, 1979, the amount of property
tax to be allocated to the district for the 1979-80 fiscal year and
each fiscal year thereafter shall be determined pursuant to Section
54790.3 of the Government Code.
   (i) For the purposes of the computations required by this chapter,
in the case of a jurisdictional change, other than a change
requiring an adjustment by the auditor pursuant to subdivision (a),
the auditor shall adjust the allocation of property tax revenue
determined pursuant to Section 96 or 96.1 or its predecessor section,
or the annual tax increment determined pursuant to Section 96.5 or
its predecessor section, for each local school district, community
college district, or county superintendent of schools whose service
area or service responsibility would be altered by the jurisdictional
change, as determined as follows:
   (1) The governing body of each district, county superintendent of
schools, or county whose service areas or service responsibilities
would be altered by the change shall determine the amount of property
tax revenues to be exchanged between and among the affected
jurisdictions. This determination shall be adopted by each affected
jurisdiction by resolution. For the purpose of negotiation, the
county auditor shall furnish the parties and the county board of
education with an estimate of the property tax revenue subject to
negotiation.
   (2) In the event that the affected jurisdictions are unable to
agree, within 60 days after the effective date of the jurisdictional
change, and if all the jurisdictions are wholly within one county,
the county board of education shall, by resolution, determine the
amount of property tax revenue to be exchanged. If the jurisdictions
are in more than one county, the State Board of Education shall, by
resolution, within 60 days after the effective date of the
jurisdictional change, determine the amount of property tax to be
exchanged.
   (3) Upon adoption of any resolution pursuant to this subdivision,
the adopting jurisdictions or State Board of Education shall notify
the county auditor who shall make the appropriate adjustments as
provided in subdivision (a).
   (j) For purposes of subdivision (i), the annexation by a community
college district of territory within a county not previously served
by a community college district is an alteration of service area. The
community college district and the county shall negotiate the
amount, if any, of property tax revenues to be exchanged. In these
negotiations, there shall be taken into consideration the amount of
revenue received from the timber yield tax and forest reserve
receipts by the community college district in the area not previously
served. In no event shall the property tax revenue to be exchanged
exceed the amount of property tax revenue collected prior to the
annexation for the purposes of paying tuition expenses of residents
enrolled in the community college district, adjusted each year by the
percentage change in population and the percentage change in the
cost of living, or per capita personal income, whichever is lower,
less the amount of revenue received by the community college district
in the annexed area from the timber yield tax and forest reserve
receipts.
   (k) At any time after a jurisdictional change is effective, any of
the local agencies party to the agreement to exchange property tax
revenue may renegotiate the agreement with respect to the current
fiscal year or subsequent fiscal years, subject to approval by all
local agencies affected by the renegotiation.




99.01.  (a) For the purposes of Section 99, in the case of a
jurisdictional change that will result in a special district
providing one or more services to an area where those services have
not been previously provided by any local agency, the following shall
apply:
   (1) The special district referred to in this subdivision and each
local agency that receives an apportionment of property tax revenue
from the area shall be considered local agencies whose service area
or service responsibility will be altered by the jurisdictional
change.
   (2) The exchange of property tax among those local agencies shall
be limited to property tax revenue from the annual tax increment
generated in the area subject to the jurisdictional change and
attributable to those local agencies.
   (3) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (5) of subdivision
(b) of Section 99, any special district affected by the
jurisdictional change may negotiate on its own behalf, if it so
chooses.
   (4) If a special district involved in the negotiation (other than
the district which will provide one or more services to the area
where those services have not been previously provided) fails to
adopt a resolution providing for the exchange of property tax
revenue, the board of supervisors of the county in the area subject
to the jurisdictional change is located shall determine the exchange
of property tax revenue for that special district.
   (b) The provisions of subdivisions (a), (b), (c), (d), and (j) of
Section 99 not in conflict with this section shall apply. The
jurisdictional changes described in subdivisions (e), (f), (g), (h),
and (i) of Section 99 shall not be affected by the provisions of this
section.



99.02.  (a) For the purposes of the computations required by this
chapter for the 1985-86 fiscal year and fiscal years thereafter, in
the case of any transfer of property tax revenues between local
agencies that is adopted and approved in conformity with subdivisions
(b) and (c), the auditor shall adjust the allocation of property tax
revenue determined pursuant to Section 96.1 or its predecessor
section, or the annual tax increment determined pursuant to Section
96.5 or its predecessor section, for those local agencies whose
allocation would be altered by the transfer.
   (b) Commencing with the 1985-86 fiscal year, any local agency may,
by the adoption of a resolution of its governing body or governing
board, determine to transfer any portion of its property tax revenues
that is allocable to one or more tax rate areas within the local
agency to one or more other local agencies having the same tax rate
area or tax rate areas. Upon the local agency's adoption of the
resolution, the local agency shall notify the board of supervisors of
the county or the city council of the city within which the transfer
of property tax revenues is proposed.
   (c) If the board of supervisors or the city council concurs with
the proposed transfer of property tax revenue, the board or council
shall, by resolution, notify the county auditor of the approved
transfer.
   (d) Upon receipt of notification from the board of supervisors or
the city council, the county auditor shall make the necessary
adjustments specified in subdivision (a).
   (e) Prior to the adoption or approval by any local agency of a
transfer of property tax revenues pursuant to this section, each
local agency that will be affected by the proposed transfer shall
hold a public hearing to consider the effect of the proposed transfer
on fees, charges, assessments, taxes, or other revenues. Notice of
the hearing shall be published pursuant to Section 6061 of the
Government Code in one or more newspapers of general circulation
within each affected local agency.
   (f) No local agency shall transfer property tax revenue pursuant
to this section unless each of the following conditions exists:
   (1) The transferring agency determines that revenues are available
for this purpose.
   (2) The transfer will not result in any increase in the ratio
between the amount of revenues of the transferring agency that are
generated by regulatory licenses, use charges, user fees, or
assessments and the amount of revenues of the transferring agency
used to finance services provided by the transferring agency.
   (3) The transfer will not impair the ability of the transferring
agency to provide existing services.
   (4) The transfer will not result in a reduction of property tax
revenues to school entities.


99.03.  (a) For the purposes of Section 99, in the case of a
jurisdictional change that results in a qualifying city, as defined
in Section 98, providing its own fire protection services in
accordance with Section 25643 of the Government Code in lieu of the
county providing those services, the negotiated exchange of property
tax revenues between the county and the qualifying city pursuant to
subdivision (c) of Section 99 as a result of that jurisdictional
change may also provide for a negotiated adjustment in the amount of
property tax revenue distributed by the auditor to the qualifying
city in accordance with Section 98. The negotiated adjustment may be
made in any amount that does not exceed the amount of property tax
revenue exchanged between the county and the qualifying city.
   (b) This section applies only to exchanges of property tax revenue
affecting the County of Riverside and qualifying cities within that
county.


99.1.  (a) For the purposes of the computations required by this
chapter for the 1986-87 fiscal year and fiscal years thereafter, in
the case of any transfer of property tax revenues between local
agencies that is adopted and approved in conformity with subdivisions
(b) and (c), the county auditor shall adjust the allocation of
property tax revenue determined pursuant to Section 96.1 or its
predecessor section, or the annual tax increment determined pursuant
to Section 96.5 or its predecessor section, for those local agencies
whose allocation would be altered by the transfer.
   (b) Commencing with the 1986-87 fiscal year or any fiscal year
thereafter, a local agency may, by the adoption of a resolution of
its governing board, determine to exchange any portion of its
property tax revenues that is allocable to one or more tax rate
areas, with one or more other local agencies having the same tax rate
area or tax rate areas. Upon the adoption of the resolution, the
governing board of the local agency shall notify the board of
supervisors of the affected county.
   If the transfer of property tax revenues will alter the property
tax revenue allocation of a city, the governing board of the local
agency shall, upon adoption of the resolution, also notify the
affected city.
   (c) If the board of supervisors of the affected county concurs
with the proposed exchange of property tax revenues, it shall, by
resolution, approve the exchange and notify the county auditor. If
the property tax allocation of a city would be affected by the
exchange, the board shall not notify the county auditor pursuant to
this subdivision until the city council of the affected city has, by
resolution, approved the proposed exchange of property tax revenues.
   (d) Upon receipt of notification from the board of supervisors
pursuant to subdivision (c), the county auditor shall make the
necessary adjustments specified in subdivision (a).
   (e) Prior to the adoption by the governing board of a local agency
of a resolution pursuant to subdivision (b), the local agency shall
hold a public hearing to consider the effect of the proposed
transfer. Notice of the hearing shall be published pursuant to
Section 6061 of the Government Code in one or more newspapers of
general circulation within the local agency.
   (f) No local agency shall reallocate property tax revenue pursuant
to this section unless the transfer will not result in any increase
in the ratio between the amount of revenues of the transferring
agency that are generated by regulatory licenses, use charges, user
fees, or assessments and the amount of revenues of the transferring
agency used to finance services provided by it.
   (g) This section applies only to exchanges affecting the Ventura
Regional Sanitation District located within the County of Ventura.



99.2.  No amendment made by any chapter of the Statutes of 1980, or
any year thereafter, to Section 99 of the Revenue and Taxation Code
shall be construed, except as expressly provided therein, to apply to
a jurisdictional change initiated, pursuant to the applicable
provisions of law governing those jurisdictional changes, prior to
the effective date of the amendment. The provisions of Section 99 of
the Revenue and Taxation Code in effect at the time the
jurisdictional change is initiated shall govern the procedures for,
and exchange of, property tax revenues between local agencies whose
service area or service responsibility would be altered by that
jurisdictional change, provided that there shall be no duty to
impound any property tax revenues.

REVENUE AND TAXATION CODE
SECTION 99-99.2



99.  (a) For the purposes of the computations required by this
chapter:
   (1) In the case of a jurisdictional change, other than a city
incorporation or a formation of a district as defined in Section
2215, the auditor shall adjust the allocation of property tax revenue
determined pursuant to Section 96 or 96.1, or the annual tax
increment determined pursuant to Section 96.5, for local agencies
whose service area or service responsibility would be altered by the
jurisdictional change, as determined pursuant to subdivision (b) or
(c).
   (2) In the case of a city incorporation, the auditor shall assign
the allocation of property tax revenues determined pursuant to
Section 56810 of the Government Code and the adjustments in tax
revenues that may occur pursuant to Section 56815 of the Government
Code to the newly formed city or district and shall make the
adjustment as determined by Section 56810 in the allocation of
property tax revenue determined pursuant to Section 96 or 96.1 for
each local agency whose service area or service responsibilities
would be altered by the incorporation.
   (3) In the case of a formation of a district as defined in Section
2215, the auditor shall assign the allocation of property tax
revenues determined pursuant to Section 56810 of the Government Code
to the district and shall make the adjustment as determined by
Section 56810 in the allocation of property tax revenue determined
pursuant to Section 96 or 96.1 for each local agency whose service
area or service responsibilities would be altered by the formation.
   (b) Upon the filing of an application or a resolution pursuant to
the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of
2000 (Division 3 (commencing with Section 56000) of Title 5 of the
Government Code), but prior to the issuance of a certificate of
filing, the executive officer shall give notice of the filing to the
assessor and auditor of each county within which the territory
subject to the jurisdictional change is located. This notice shall
specify each local agency whose service area or responsibility will
be altered by the jurisdictional change.
   (1) (A) The county assessor shall provide to the county auditor,
within 30 days of the notice of filing, a report which identifies the
assessed valuations for the territory subject to the jurisdictional
change and the tax rate area or areas in which the territory exists.
   (B) The auditor shall estimate the amount of property tax revenue
generated within the territory that is the subject of the
jurisdictional change during the current fiscal year.
   (2) The auditor shall estimate what proportion of the property tax
revenue determined pursuant to paragraph (1) is attributable to each
local agency pursuant to Sections 96.1 and 96.5.
   (3) Within 45 days of notice of the filing of an application or
resolution, the auditor shall notify the governing body of each local
agency whose service area or service responsibility will be altered
by the amount of, and allocation factors with respect to, property
tax revenue estimated pursuant to paragraph (2) that is subject to a
negotiated exchange.
   (4) Upon receipt of the estimates pursuant to paragraph (3), the
local agencies shall commence negotiations to determine the amount of
property tax revenues to be exchanged between and among the local
agencies. Except as otherwise provided, this negotiation period shall
not exceed 60 days. If a local agency involved in these negotiations
notifies the other local agencies, the county auditor, and the local
agency formation commission in writing of its desire to extend the
negotiating period, the negotiating period shall be 90 days.
   The exchange may be limited to an exchange of property tax
revenues from the annual tax increment generated in the area subject
to the jurisdictional change and attributable to the local agencies
whose service area or service responsibilities will be altered by the
proposed jurisdictional change. The final exchange resolution shall
specify how the annual tax increment shall be allocated in future
years.
   (5) In the event that a jurisdictional change would affect the
service area or service responsibility of one or more special
districts, the board of supervisors of the county or counties in
which the districts are located shall, on behalf of the district or
districts, negotiate any exchange of property tax revenues. Prior to
entering into negotiation on behalf of a district for the exchange of
property tax revenue, the board shall consult with the affected
district. The consultation shall include, at a minimum, notification
to each member and executive officer of the district board of the
pending consultation and provision of adequate opportunity to comment
on the negotiation.
   (6) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the executive
officer shall not issue a certificate of filing pursuant to Section
56658 of the Government Code until the local agencies included in the
property tax revenue exchange negotiation, within the negotiation
period, present resolutions adopted by each such county and city
whereby each county and city agrees to accept the exchange of
property tax revenues.
   (7) In the event that the commission modifies the proposal or its
resolution of determination, any local agency whose service area or
service responsibility would be altered by the proposed
jurisdictional change may request, and the executive officer shall
grant, 30 days for the affected agencies, pursuant to paragraph (4),
to renegotiate an exchange of property tax revenues. Notwithstanding
the time period specified in paragraph (4), if the resolutions
required pursuant to paragraph (6) are not presented to the executive
officer within the 30-day period, all proceedings of the
jurisdictional change shall automatically be terminated.
   (8) In the case of a jurisdictional change that consists of a city'
s qualified annexation of unincorporated territory, an exchange of
property tax revenues between the city and the county shall be
determined in accordance with subdivision (e) if that exchange of
revenues is not otherwise determined pursuant to either of the
following:
   (A) Negotiations completed within the applicable period or periods
as prescribed by this subdivision.
   (B) A master property tax exchange agreement among those local
agencies, as described in subdivision (d).
   For purposes of this paragraph, a qualified annexation of
unincorporated territory means an annexation, as so described, for
which an application or a resolution was filed on or after January 1,
1998, and on or before January 1, 2015.
   (9) No later than the date on which the certificate of completion
of the jurisdictional change is recorded with the county recorder,
the executive officer shall notify the auditor or auditors of the
exchange of property tax revenues and the auditor or auditors shall
make the appropriate adjustments as provided in subdivision (a).
   (c) Whenever a jurisdictional change is not required to be
reviewed and approved by a local agency formation commission, the
local agencies whose service area or service responsibilities would
be altered by the proposed change, shall give notice to the State
Board of Equalization and the assessor and auditor of each county
within which the territory subject to the jurisdictional change is
located. This notice shall specify each local agency whose service
area or responsibility will be altered by the jurisdictional change
and request the auditor and assessor to make the determinations
required pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2) of subdivision (b). Upon
notification by the auditor of the amount of, and allocation factors
with respect to, property tax subject to exchange, the local
agencies, pursuant to the provisions of paragraphs (4) and (6) of
subdivision (b), shall determine the amount of property tax revenues
to be exchanged between and among the local agencies. Notwithstanding
any other provision of law, no such jurisdictional change shall
become effective until each county and city included in these
negotiations agrees, by resolution, to accept the negotiated exchange
of property tax revenues. The exchange may be limited to an exchange
of property tax revenue from the annual tax increment generated in
the area subject to the jurisdictional change and attributable to the
local agencies whose service area or service responsibilities will
be altered by the proposed jurisdictional change. The final exchange
resolution shall specify how the annual tax increment shall be
allocated in future years. Upon the adoption of the resolutions
required pursuant to this section, the adopting agencies shall notify
the auditor who shall make the appropriate adjustments as provided
in subdivision (a). Adjustments in property tax allocations made as
the result of a city or library district withdrawing from a county
free library system pursuant to Section 19116 of the Education Code
shall be made pursuant to Section 19116 of the Education Code, and
this subdivision shall not apply.
   (d) With respect to adjustments in the allocation of property
taxes pursuant to this section, a county and any local agency or
agencies within the county may develop and adopt a master property
tax transfer agreement. The agreement may be revised from time to
time by the parties subject to the agreement.
   (e) (1) An exchange of property tax revenues that is required by
paragraph (8) of subdivision (b) to be determined pursuant to this
subdivision shall be determined in accordance with all of the
following:
   (A) The city and the county shall mutually select a third-party
consultant to perform a comprehensive, independent fiscal analysis,
funded in equal portions by the city and the county, that specifies
estimates of all tax revenues that will be derived from the annexed
territory and the costs of city and county services with respect to
the annexed territory. The analysis shall be completed within a
period not to exceed 30 days, and shall be based upon the general
plan or adopted plans and policies of the annexing city and the
intended uses for the annexed territory. If, upon the completion of
the analysis period, no exchange of property tax revenues is agreed
upon by the city and the county, subparagraph (B) shall apply.
   (B) The city and the county shall mutually select a mediator,
funded in equal portions by those agencies, to perform mediation for
a period not to exceed 30 days. If, upon the completion of the
mediation period, no exchange of property tax revenues is agreed upon
by the city and the county, subparagraph (C) shall apply.
   (C) The city and the county shall mutually select an arbitrator,
funded in equal portions by those agencies, to conduct an advisory
arbitration with the city and the county for a period not to exceed
30 days. At the conclusion of this arbitration period, the city and
the county shall each present to the arbitrator its last and best
offer with respect to the exchange of property tax revenues. The
arbitrator shall select one of the offers and recommend that offer to
the governing bodies of the city and the county. If the governing
body of the city or the county rejects the recommended offer, it
shall do so during a public hearing, and shall, at the conclusion of
that hearing, make written findings of fact as to why the recommended
offer was not accepted.
   (2) Proceedings under this subdivision shall be concluded no more
than 150 days after the auditor provides the notification pursuant to
paragraph (3) of subdivision (b), unless one of the periods
specified in this subdivision is extended by the mutual agreement of
the city and the county. Notwithstanding any other provision of law,
except for those conditions that are necessary to implement an
exchange of property tax revenues determined pursuant to this
subdivision, the local agency formation commission shall not impose
any fiscal conditions upon a city's qualified annexation of
unincorporated territory that is subject to this subdivision.
   (f) Except as otherwise provided in subdivision (g), for the
purpose of determining the amount of property tax to be allocated in
the 1979-80 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter for those
local agencies that were affected by a jurisdictional change which
was filed with the State Board of Equalization after January 1, 1978,
but on or before January 1, 1979. The local agencies shall determine
by resolution the amount of property tax revenues to be exchanged
between and among the affected agencies and notify the auditor of the
determination.
   (g) For the purpose of determining the amount of property tax to
be allocated in the 1979-80 fiscal year and each fiscal year
thereafter, for a city incorporation that was filed pursuant to
Sections 54900 to 54904 after January 1, 1978, but on or before
January 1, 1979, the amount of property tax revenue considered to
have been received by the jurisdiction for the 1978-79 fiscal year
shall be equal to two-thirds of the amount of property tax revenue
projected in the final local agency formation commission staff report
pertaining to the incorporation multiplied by the proportion that
the total amount of property tax revenue received by all
jurisdictions within the county for the 1978-79 fiscal year bears to
the total amount of property tax revenue received by all
jurisdictions within the county for the 1977-78 fiscal year. Except,
however, in the event that the final commission report did not
specify the amount of property tax revenue projected for that
incorporation, the commission shall by October 10 determine pursuant
to Section 54790.3 of the Government Code the amount of property tax
to be transferred to the city.
   The provisions of this subdivision shall also apply to the
allocation of property taxes for the 1980-81 fiscal year and each
fiscal year thereafter for incorporations approved by the voters in
June 1979.
   (h) For the purpose of the computations made pursuant to this
section, in the case of a district formation that was filed pursuant
to Sections 54900 to 54904, inclusive, of the Government Code after
January 1, 1978, but before January 1, 1979, the amount of property
tax to be allocated to the district for the 1979-80 fiscal year and
each fiscal year thereafter shall be determined pursuant to Section
54790.3 of the Government Code.
   (i) For the purposes of the computations required by this chapter,
in the case of a jurisdictional change, other than a change
requiring an adjustment by the auditor pursuant to subdivision (a),
the auditor shall adjust the allocation of property tax revenue
determined pursuant to Section 96 or 96.1 or its predecessor section,
or the annual tax increment determined pursuant to Section 96.5 or
its predecessor section, for each local school district, community
college district, or county superintendent of schools whose service
area or service responsibility would be altered by the jurisdictional
change, as determined as follows:
   (1) The governing body of each district, county superintendent of
schools, or county whose service areas or service responsibilities
would be altered by the change shall determine the amount of property
tax revenues to be exchanged between and among the affected
jurisdictions. This determination shall be adopted by each affected
jurisdiction by resolution. For the purpose of negotiation, the
county auditor shall furnish the parties and the county board of
education with an estimate of the property tax revenue subject to
negotiation.
   (2) In the event that the affected jurisdictions are unable to
agree, within 60 days after the effective date of the jurisdictional
change, and if all the jurisdictions are wholly within one county,
the county board of education shall, by resolution, determine the
amount of property tax revenue to be exchanged. If the jurisdictions
are in more than one county, the State Board of Education shall, by
resolution, within 60 days after the effective date of the
jurisdictional change, determine the amount of property tax to be
exchanged.
   (3) Upon adoption of any resolution pursuant to this subdivision,
the adopting jurisdictions or State Board of Education shall notify
the county auditor who shall make the appropriate adjustments as
provided in subdivision (a).
   (j) For purposes of subdivision (i), the annexation by a community
college district of territory within a county not previously served
by a community college district is an alteration of service area. The
community college district and the county shall negotiate the
amount, if any, of property tax revenues to be exchanged. In these
negotiations, there shall be taken into consideration the amount of
revenue received from the timber yield tax and forest reserve
receipts by the community college district in the area not previously
served. In no event shall the property tax revenue to be exchanged
exceed the amount of property tax revenue collected prior to the
annexation for the purposes of paying tuition expenses of residents
enrolled in the community college district, adjusted each year by the
percentage change in population and the percentage change in the
cost of living, or per capita personal income, whichever is lower,
less the amount of revenue received by the community college district
in the annexed area from the timber yield tax and forest reserve
receipts.
   (k) At any time after a jurisdictional change is effective, any of
the local agencies party to the agreement to exchange property tax
revenue may renegotiate the agreement with respect to the current
fiscal year or subsequent fiscal years, subject to approval by all
local agencies affected by the renegotiation.

not been previously provided by any local agency, the following shall
apply:
   (1) The special district referred to in this subdivision and each
local agency that receives an apportionment of property tax revenue
from the area shall be considered local agencies whose service area
or service responsibility will be altered by the jurisdictional
change.
   (2) The exchange of property tax among those local agencies shall
be limited to property tax revenue from the annual tax increment
generated in the area subject to the jurisdictional change and
attributable to those local agencies.

the district which will provide one or more services to the area
where those services have not been previously provided) fails to
adopt a resolution providing for the exchange of property tax
revenue, the board of supervisors of the county in the area subject
to the jurisdictional change is located shall determine the exchange
of property tax revenue for that special district.
   (b) The provisions of subdivisions (a), (b), (c), (d), and (j) of

tax revenues between the county and the qualifying city pursuant to
subdivision (c) of Section 99 as a result of that jurisdictional
change may also provide for a negotiated adjustment in the amount of
