Provides that rates that are subject to a backdoor referendum in each year there is a levy are treated as not new rates or rate increases if a levy has not been made for the fund in one or more of the preceding 3 levy years (now, the rates are not new rates or rate increases if a levy has been made for the fund in one or more of the preceding 3 levy years). Provides that these changes are declarative of existing law. Effective immediately.
