427B.19 Assessor and county auditor duties.   1. On or before July 1 of each fiscal year, the assessor shall determine the total assessed value of the property assessed under section 427B.17 for taxes payable in that fiscal year and the total assessed value of such property assessed as of January 1, 1994, and shall report the valuations to the county auditor.   2. On or before July 1 of each fiscal year, the assessor shall determine the valuation of all commercial and industrial property assessed for taxes payable in that fiscal year and the valuation of such property assessed as of January 1, 1994, and shall report the valuations to the county auditor.   3. On or before September 1 of each fiscal year through June 30, 2004, the county auditor shall prepare a statement, based upon the report received pursuant to subsections 1 and 2, listing for each taxing district in the county:   a. Beginning with the assessment year beginning January 1, 1995, the difference between the assessed valuation of property assessed pursuant to section 427B.17 for that year and the total assessed value of such property assessed as of January 1, 1994. If the total assessed value of the property assessed as of January 1, 1994, is less, there is no tax replacement for the fiscal year.   b. The tax levy rate for each taxing district for that fiscal year.   c. The industrial machinery, equipment and computers tax replacement claim for each taxing district. For fiscal years beginning July 1, 1996, and ending June 30, 2001, the replacement claim is equal to the amount determined pursuant to paragraph “a”, multiplied by the tax rate specified in paragraph “b”. For fiscal years beginning July 1, 2001, and ending June 30, 2004, the replacement claim is equal to the product of the amount determined pursuant to paragraph “a”, less any increase in valuations determined in paragraph “d”, and the tax rate specified in paragraph “b”. If the amount subtracted under paragraph “d” is more than the amount determined in paragraph “a”, there is no tax replacement for the fiscal year.   d. Beginning with the assessment year beginning January 1, 2000, the auditor shall reduce the amount listed in paragraph “a”, by the increase, if any, in assessed valuations of commercial and industrial property in the assessment year beginning January 1, 1994, and the assessment year for which taxes are due and payable in that fiscal year. If the calculation under this paragraph indicates a net decrease in aggregate valuation of such property, the industrial machinery, equipment and computers tax replacement claim for each taxing district is equal to the amount determined pursuant to paragraph “a”, multiplied by the tax rate specified in paragraph “b”.   4. The county auditor shall certify and forward one copy of the statement to the department of revenue not later than September 1 of each year.   5. For purposes of this section, “assessed value of the property assessed under section 427B.17” does not include the value of property defined in section 427A.1, subsection 1, paragraphs “e” and “j”, which is obligated to secure payment of certificates or other indebtedness incurred pursuant to chapter 260E or 260F.   6. For purposes of computing replacement amounts under this section, that portion of an urban renewal area defined as the sum of the assessed valuations defined in section 403.19, subsections 1 and 2, shall be considered a taxing district.  95 Acts, ch 206, §31; 96 Acts, ch 1049, §4; 97 Acts, ch 158, §32, 33; 2003 Acts, ch 145, §286; 2003 Acts, ch 178, §5, 6  Referred to in §257.3, 427B.18, 427B.19A
