(a)Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, the amount of the revenue reduction resulting from the application of subdivision

(c)of Section 97.2 to an amount equal to the amount of the water quality control compliance costs of a qualified special district for the 1992–93 fiscal year shall, for purposes of property tax revenue allocations for the 1993–94 fiscal year, be added to the amount of property tax revenue deemed allocated to that district in the 1992–93 fiscal year. The water quality control compliance costs of a qualified special district for the relevant fiscal year shall also be deducted from the amount of property tax revenue subject to reduction with respect to that district under Section 97.3 for the 1993–94 fiscal year, and under any statute with respect to any subsequent fiscal year that would reduce the amount of property tax revenue deemed allocated in the prior fiscal year to that district for purposes of increasing the amount of property tax revenue to be allocated to another jurisdiction.
