(a)Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, for the 1995–96 fiscal year only, the auditor of any qualified county shall, upon being directed by the board of supervisors, increase the amount of property tax revenue allocated to that county by an amount of property tax revenue, not to exceed one million five hundred fifty thousand dollars ($1,550,000), that is attributable to the difference between the following amounts:
(1)The amount of the reduction that would have been determined by the Director of Finance for the qualified county pursuant to subdivision
(b)of Section 97.31 in the absence of the two million dollar ($2,000,000) limitation of subdivision
(a)and paragraph

(b)of Section 97.31.
If the board of supervisors directs the auditor, pursuant to this subdivision, to increase the amount of the property tax revenue allocation of the county, the board shall also direct the auditor to commensurately reduce the amount of the property tax revenue allocation to the Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund. The county shall expend any additional amount of property tax revenue that it receives pursuant to this subdivision solely for the purpose of funding public safety services.
(b)The Director of Finance shall determine for each qualified county the difference described in subdivision (a), and shall as soon as reasonably possible after the effective date of the act adding this section, notify the board of supervisors of each qualified county in writing of the amount of the difference calculated for that county.
(c)For purposes of this section, “qualified county” means an “eligible county,” as defined in paragraph
(2)of subdivision
(a)of Section 97.31, that was subject to the reduction required by paragraph
(4)of subdivision
(b)of that same section.
(d)Except as otherwise required by law, the county auditor of a qualified county shall allocate property tax revenues for the 1996–97 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter in those amounts that fully reflect, as otherwise required by this chapter, any increases or reductions in allocations that are directed by the board of supervisors pursuant to subdivision (a).
