3. (a) If the department of local government
finance determines that compliance with P.L.78-2004 would cause an
unreasonable delay in the certification of budgets, tax rates, and tax
levies in a county, the department of local government finance may
certify budgets, tax rates, and tax levies for the county under IC 6-1.1-18-12, this chapter, and IC 12-29-2 as if P.L.78-2004 had not
been enacted. However, if the department of local government finance
takes this action, the affected county and the department of local
government finance shall provide for an additional shortfall property
tax levy and an additional budgeted amount in 2005 to replace the
revenue lost in 2004 to community mental health centers as a result of
certifying budgets, tax rates, and tax levies for the county under IC 6-1.1-18-12, this chapter, and IC 12-29-2 as if P.L.78-2004 had not
been passed.
(b) The amount of the shortfall levy under subsection (a) shall be
treated as an addition to the amount allowed in 2005 under IC 12-29-2,
as amended by P.L.78-2004. The ad valorem property tax levy limits
imposed by IC 12-29-2, as amended by P.L.78-2004, do not apply to ad
valorem property taxes imposed under subsection (a). The shortfall
levy imposed under this section may not be considered in computing
ad valorem property tax levies under IC 12-29-2, as amended by
P.L.78-2004, for property taxes first due and payable after 2005.
