(e-1) and (g) to read as follows: |
|
(c) If a municipality removes territory from a district that |
|
the municipality has annexed, the municipality shall compensate the |
|
district immediately after disannexation of the territory under |
|
Subsection (a) in an amount equal to the annexed territory's pro |
|
rata share of the district's bonded and other indebtedness as |
|
computed according to the formula in Subsection (e) or (e-1), |
|
whichever yields the greater amount. The district shall apply |
|
compensation received from a municipality under this subsection |
|
exclusively to the payment of the annexed territory's pro rata |
|
share of the district's bonded and other indebtedness. |
|
(e) Unless Subsection (e-1) would yield a greater amount, |
|

|
assessed value of the property to be annexed based on the most |
|
recent certified county property tax rolls at the time of |
|

|

|
the amount of compensation under Subsection (c) shall be determined |
|
by multiplying the district's total indebtedness at the time of the |
|
annexation by a fraction: |
|
(1) the numerator of which is the assessed value of the |
|
property to be annexed based on the most recent certified county |
|
property tax rolls at the time of annexation plus the total amount |
|
of the district's sales and use tax revenue collected by retailers |
|
located in the property to be annexed in the 12 months preceding the |
|
date of annexation, as reported by the comptroller; and |
|
(2) the denominator of which is the total assessed |
|
value of the property of the district based on the most recent |
|
certified county property tax rolls at the time of annexation plus |
|
the total amount of the district's sales and use tax revenue |
|
collected by retailers located in the district in the 12 months |
|
preceding the date of annexation, as reported by the comptroller. |
|
(g) The amount of compensation under Subsection (c) shall be |
|
determined under Subsection (e) regardless of whether Subsection |
|
(e-1) would yield a greater amount if: |
|
(1) the municipality is a municipality described by |
|
Section 775.014(h); and |
