  sales  tax  decrease shall be subtracted from the sales tax increase and
  such amount shall be allocated to the county  of  Monroe,  the  city  of
  Rochester  and  the  area  in  the  county of Monroe outside the city of
  Rochester in the same amounts as subtracted in the  sales  tax  decrease
  year;
    (iii)  the  remainder  of  the  sales  tax  increase, if any, shall be
  allocated on the same basis as  set  forth  in  paragraph  (a)  of  this
