§ 52:27d-473.
If the preliminary revenue allocation plan has designated the property tax increment
as a pledged revenue, the property tax increment shall be calculated and paid to the
revenue allocation fund or the bond trustee, as appropriate, as provided hereunder. a. Upon the striking of the tax rate in each year following the adoption of the ordinance
creating the district, the chief financial officer of the municipality, with assistance
provided by the assessor and collector, shall calculate the amount of property tax
increment, if any, for each revenue allocation district within the municipality and
shall certify to the district agent of each such district a copy of that calculation. Thereafter the chief financial officer shall, within 10 days after each date fixed
by statute for the payment of property taxes, cause to be deposited in the revenue
allocation fund of the district agent or paid to the trustees as provided in the resolution
authorizing the issuance of bonds the percentage of the property tax increments certified
in the plan as designated to be so deposited or paid. The calculation of the property tax increment shall be based on the amount to be
billed at the quarterly payment date, regardless of whether or not the increment is
actually collected from the taxpayers within the district. b. Whenever an added assessment shall occur within a district, the chief financial
officer of the municipality shall notify the district agent and thereafter shall,
within 10 days of the date fixed by law for payment of property taxes on such added
assessment, cause to be paid to the revenue allocation fund or the bond trustee, as
appropriate, the property taxes, or a percentage thereof as designated in the plan,
billed upon such added assessment, regardless of whether or not the tax or any portion
thereof is actually collected. c. Whenever an omitted assessment which if not omitted would have been included in
the computation of the tax increment of a district occurs, the chief financial officer
of the municipality shall notify the district agent and thereafter shall, within 10
days after the date fixed by statute for payment of taxes upon such omitted assessments,
cause to be deposited to the revenue allocation fund or paid to the bond trustees
of the district, as appropriate, the proportion of tax upon such omitted assessments
designated in the plan for such deposit or payment, regardless of whether or not the
tax or any portion thereof is actually collected. d. In no event shall any changes in assessed valuation within a district due to appeals
or correction of errors with respect to a tax year subsequent to the creation of the
district alter the amount of property tax increment certified pursuant to this section
for that tax year. e. In no event shall any changes in assessed valuation within a district due to appeals
or correction of errors alter the property tax increment base of the district. f. Whenever a revaluation or general reassessment occurs in a municipality which has
designated one or more districts, the property tax increment base for each district
shall be adjusted to equal the absolute difference between the taxable value of the
property in the district after revaluation or reassessment less the amount of the
property tax increment base for the year immediately prior to the revaluation or reassessment
divided by the adjusted tax rate. The adjusted tax rate shall be a fraction, the numerator of which is the total tax
levy of the municipality before revaluation or reassessment and the denominator of
which is the total taxable value of all taxable property in the municipality after
revaluation or reassessment.
