Notwithstanding any other provision of law, for each of the 2004–05 and 2005–06 fiscal years, all of the following apply:

(a) (1) (A) (i) Except as otherwise provided in clauses (ii) and (iii), the total amount of ad valorem property tax revenue, other than these revenues that are pledged to debt service, otherwise allocated for each of those fiscal years to each enterprise special district shall be reduced by the lesser of the following:

(I) Forty percent of the amount of ad valorem property tax revenue of the district for the 2001–02 fiscal year, as reported in the 2001–02 edition of the State Controller’s Special Districts Annual Report.

(II) An amount equal to 10 percent of that district’s total revenues for the 2001–02 fiscal year, from whatever source, as reported in the 2001–02 edition of the State Controller’s Special Districts Annual Report.

(ii) The total amount of ad valorem property tax revenue otherwise allocated for each of those fiscal years to each enterprise special district that is a transit district shall be reduced by 3 percent of the amount of ad valorem property tax revenue of the district for the 2001–02 fiscal year, as reported in the 2001–02 edition of the State Controller’s Special Districts Annual Report.

(iii) The total amount of ad valorem property tax revenue otherwise allocated for each of those fiscal years to an enterprise special district that also performs, as reported in the 2001–02 edition of the State Controller’s Special Districts Annual Report, nonenterprise functions other than fire protection or police protection shall be decreased by both of the following, not to exceed 10 percent of a district’s total revenues from whatever source, as reported in the 2001–02 edition of the State Controller’s Special Districts Annual Report:

(I) Forty percent of the amount of ad valorem property tax revenue of the district’s enterprise functions for the 2001–02 fiscal year, as reported in the 2001–02 edition of the State Controller’s Special Districts Annual Report.

(II) Ten percent of the amount of ad valorem property tax revenue of the district’s nonenterprise functions for the 2001–02 fiscal year, as reported in the 2001–02 edition of the State Controller’s Special Districts Annual Report.

(B) If an enterprise special district is located in more than one county, the auditor of each county in which that enterprise special district is located shall implement that portion of the total reduction, required by subparagraph (A) with respect to that district, determined by the ratio of the amount of ad valorem property tax revenue allocated to that district from the county to the total amount of ad valorem property tax revenue allocated to that district from all counties.

(2) The Controller shall determine the amount of the ad valorem property tax revenue reduction required by paragraph (1) for each enterprise special district in each county. The Controller shall then determine whether the total amount of ad valorem property tax revenue reductions under paragraph (1) and Section 97.73 is less than three hundred fifty million dollars ($350,000,000). If, for either the 2004–05 or 2005–06 fiscal year, the total of the amount of these reductions is less than three hundred fifty million dollars ($350,000,000), the total amount of ad valorem property tax revenue allocated to each enterprise special district, other than an enterprise special district that is a transit district, shall be reduced by an additional amount equal to that district’s proportionate share of the difference, provided that the total reduction under this section for a district shall not exceed 10 percent of that district’s revenue from whatever source for the 2001–02 fiscal year, as reported in the 2001–02 edition of the State Controller’s Special Districts Annual Report. If, as a result of this 10-percent limitation, any portion of the difference remains unapplied, that remaining portion shall, as many times as necessary, be applied in proportionate shares among those enterprise special districts, other than transit districts, for which the 10-percent limitation has not been reached, until a three hundred fifty million dollar reduction ($350,000,000) has been applied. The Controller shall, on or before October 25, 2004, notify the Director of Finance of the reduction amounts determined under this subdivision. The Director of Finance shall, on or before November 12, 2004, notify each county auditor of the allocation reductions required by this paragraph and Section 97.73.

(b) That amount of ad valorem property tax revenue that is not allocated to an enterprise special district as a result of subdivision (a) shall instead be deposited in the county Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund and shall be allocated as specified in subdivision (d) of Section 97.3.

(c) For purposes of this section, all of the following apply:

(1) “Enterprise special district” means a special district that performs, as reported in the 2001–02 edition of the State Controller’s Special Districts Annual Report, an enterprise function. “Enterprise special district” does not include a fire protection district that was formed under the Shade Tree Law of 1909 set forth in Article 2 (commencing with Section 25620) of Chapter 7 of Division 2 of Title 3 of the Government Code, a local health care district as described in Division 23 (commencing with Section 32000) of the Health and Safety Code, or a qualified special district as defined in Section 97.34.

(2) With respect to an enterprise special district that also performs, as reported in the 2001–02 edition of the State Controller’s Special Districts Annual Report, a police protection nonenterprise function with certified peace officers, as described in Chapter 4.5 (commencing with Section 830) of Title 3 of Part 2 of the Penal Code, or a fire protection nonenterprise function, “the amount of ad valorem property tax revenue of the district for the 2001–02 fiscal year” does not include ad valorem property tax revenue of that district for fire protection or police protection nonenterprise functions, as reported in the 2001–02 edition of the State Controller’s Special Districts Annual Report.

(3) For purposes of this section, “revenues that are pledged to debt service” includes only those amounts required as the sole source of repayment to pay debt service costs in the 2002–03 fiscal year on debt instruments issued by an enterprise special district for the acquisition of fixed assets. For purposes of this paragraph, “fixed assets” means land, buildings, equipment, and improvements, including improvements to buildings.

(d) For the purposes of this section, if a special district’s financial transactions do not appear in the 2001–02 edition of the State Controller’s Special Districts Annual Report, the Controller shall use the most recent data available for that district.

(e) For the 2005–06 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter, the amounts determined under subdivision (a) of Section 96.1, or any successor to that provision, shall not reflect, for a preceding fiscal year, any portion of any allocation required by this section.
