LIMITATION ON SPECIAL TAX LEVY The Special Tax shall only be levied on developed property; provided that the Special Tax shall not be levied until a "Certification of Occupancy" or "Utility Release" has been issued by the appropriate governmental agencies. Developed property is defined to be property: • Which is not owned by a public or governmental agency • Which is not vacant • Where a certificate of occupancy or utility release from the City of Rancho Cucamonga or the County of San Bernardino has been issued • Which has an existing building or structure on site • Which does not have as its sole use power transmission towers, railroad tracks, and flood control facilities — these properties are exempt. Areas granted as easements to power transmission towers, railroad tracks, and flood control facilities shall be subtracted from the total acreage of the underlying lot and shall be exempt. The annual levy of the Special Tax shall be based upon an annual determination by the Board of Directors of the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District of the amount of other revenues available to meet budget requirements. As used in this formula, "available revenue" shall include ad valorem taxes, State of California augmentation, tax increment revenues received from the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Rancho Cucamonga and any other source of revenue except the Special Tax. The Board of Directors shall take all responsible steps to retain maximum Redevelopment Agency funding to which, by agreement, they may lawfully receive. To the extent available revenues are insufficient to meet budget requirements, the Board of Directors may levy the Special Tax.
