Notwithstanding any other law, commencing with the 1999–2000 fiscal year, the apportionment of property tax revenues in the County of San Bernardino shall be modified as follows:
(a) The auditor shall apportion an amount of property tax revenues to the Victor Valley Economic Development Authority that is equal to the amount that would be allocated to that authority if the base year for the George Air Force Base Project Area was changed to the 1997–98 fiscal year for purposes of Part 1 (commencing with Section 33000) of Division 24 of the Health and Safety Code.
(b) The auditor shall reduce the amount of property tax revenues apportioned to all other jurisdictions within the George Air Force Base Project Area on a pro rata basis in an amount equal to the amount apportioned under subdivision (a).
(c) On or before June 30, 2004, and on or before June 30 of each fifth year thereafter, the Victor Valley Economic Development Authority shall remit to the Controller an amount of money equal to the amount of the increased aid provided by the state to school entities as a result of this section, plus interest. The interest shall accrue until the payment is made. The rate of interest shall be the rate of interest on the bonds of the authority. If there are no bonds, the rate of interest shall be the rate of interest earned by the Pooled Money Investment Board. The Department of Finance shall determine the amount to be remitted, after consultation with the authority.
