5:10A-55 Computation of guarantee payment.  55. a. The guarantee payment payable by the intermunicipal account to each constituent municipality in any adjustment year shall be computed as follows: If there is a decrease in the aggregate true value of taxable real property of any constituent municipality, as determined pursuant to subsection b. of section 53 of P.L.2015, c.19 (C.5:10A-53), the commission shall, subject to the provision of subsection b. of this section, calculate the amount of decreased aggregate true value, occurring in the comparison year, by reason of the acquisition, through purchase, eminent domain, or gift, during the year preceding the comparison year, of taxable real property by a governmental body or agency to be used for a public purpose, whereby said taxable real property parcels or portions thereof became exempt from local real property taxes. Such decreased aggregate true value shall be calculated in the same manner as aggregate true value is determined pursuant to subsection b. of section 53 of P.L.2015, c.19 (C.5:10A-53) and shall be based on the assessed value in the year of acquisition, of the parcels or portions thereof affected. b.

If, in any comparison year and with respect to any constituent municipality, no amount of decrease in aggregate true value is found to be attributable to the conversion from taxable to exempt status specified in subsection a. of this section, no guarantee payment shall be payable to any such municipality in the applicable adjustment year. d. The commission shall not be required to make the calculation prescribed in subsection a. of this section, unless the governing body of any constituent municipality claiming a decrease in aggregate true value attributable to the conversion of real property from a taxable to an exempt status specified in subsection a. of this section, no later than December 1 in the comparison year, files with the commission a statement to such effect, setting forth a description of the parcels, or portions thereof, involved, together with such other information as may be pertinent, in such form as the commission shall prescribe.

The amount so derived shall be referred to as the meadowlands pre-adjustment payment.

In the event that there are insufficient monies in the fund to fully compensate all municipalities in any year, the amount paid to each municipality shall constitute the same proportion of the total amount of money available to all municipalities as each municipality would receive if the amount of money in the fund were sufficient to fully compensate all municipalities in that year. For the purposes of this section, any decrease in a payment required to be made from the intermunicipal account to a constituent municipality which is in excess of five percent below the previous year's payment shall be considered an "excessive fluctuation."
