CA Rev & Tax Code Section 2266.5

This section shall provide an alternate procedure to the other provisions of this article for establishing maximum property tax rates. In the event that a chartered city assesses property and collects taxes and transfers such functions to the county in which such city is located, the maximum tax rate for such city in the first fiscal year in which the transfer is effective shall be determined by multiplying the city’s maximum tax rate for the preceding fiscal year by the same factor established by the State Board of Equalization to determine the public utility roll supplied to the city for such preceding fiscal year.
