(b) For districts with a fall enrollment of greater than two hundred, but less than six
hundred, the target teacher ratio factor is calculated as follows:
For school districts utilizing the alternative local need calculation, the other revenue base
amount is zero until such time the school district chooses to no longer utilize the alternative local need calculation. At that time, the other revenue base amount is calculated as defined above.

The levy in this section shall be based on valuations such that the median level of assessment represents eighty-five percent of market value as determined by the Department of Revenue.
