62 OK Stat § 62-862 (2016) What's This?

A. Upon approval of a project plan containing apportionment financing as provided in Section 861 of this title, the county assessor shall, within ninety (90) days, determine the total assessed value of all taxable real property and all taxable personal property within the boundaries of an increment district which shall be certified by the assessor as the "base assessed value".

B. Any school district located within the boundaries of an increment district may file a protest with the governing body of the city, town or county as to the amount certified by the county assessor as the "base assessed value" of the increment district. Such protest shall be filed within thirty (30) days after the "base assessed value" is certified by the county assessor. The governing body of the city, town or county shall notify the county assessor of the protest. Within thirty days after being notified of the protest, the county assessor shall redetermine the total assessed value of all taxable real property and all taxable personal property within the boundaries of the increment district and shall certify to the governing body of the city, town or county the redetermined amount as the "base assessed value" of that district.

C. After the county assessor has certified the "base assessed value" of the taxable real property and the taxable personal property in such increment district, then in respect to every taxing jurisdiction receiving taxes levied in the increment district, the county assessor or any other official required by law to ascertain the amount of the equalized assessed value of all taxable property within such increment district for the purpose of computing the tax levy to be extended upon taxable property within such increment district, for the purpose of calculating the general state school aid formula, or for the purpose of computing any debt limitation, shall in every year that the tax apportionment is in effect ascertain the amount of value of taxable property in such increment district by including in such amount the certified "base assessed value" of all taxable real property and all taxable personal property in such increment district in lieu of the equalized assessed value of all taxable real property and all taxable personal property in such increment district. The tax levy determined shall be extended to the current equalized assessed value of all property in the increment district in the same manner as the tax levy is extended to all other taxable property in the increment district. The method of extending taxes established under the provisions of this section shall terminate when the governing body adopts an ordinance or resolution dissolving the tax apportionment financing. The provisions of this act shall not be construed as relieving property owners within an increment district from paying a uniform rate of taxes upon the current equalized assessed value of their taxable property as required by Section 5 of Article X of the Oklahoma Constitution.
