2rule taxing district that first became subject to this Law for
3the 1995 levy year because a majority of its 1994 equalized
4assessed value was in an affected county or counties shall be
5increased if a municipality terminated the designation of an
6area in 1993 as a redevelopment project area previously
7established under the Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment
8Act in the Illinois Municipal Code, previously established
9under the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law in the Illinois
10Municipal Code, or previously established under the Economic

2    Except as otherwise provided in this Section, "limiting
3rate" means a fraction the numerator of which is the last
4preceding aggregate extension base times an amount equal to
5one plus the extension limitation defined in this Section and
6the denominator of which is the current year's equalized
7assessed value of all real property in the territory under the
8jurisdiction of the taxing district during the prior levy
9year. For those taxing districts that reduced their aggregate
10extension for the last preceding levy year, except for school
11districts that reduced their extension for educational
12purposes pursuant to Section 18-206, the highest aggregate
13extension in any of the last 3 preceding levy years shall be
14used for the purpose of computing the limiting rate. The
15denominator shall not include new property or the recovered
16tax increment value. If a new rate, a rate decrease, or a
17limiting rate increase has been approved at an election held
18after March 21, 2006, then (i) the otherwise applicable
19limiting rate shall be increased by the amount of the new rate
20or shall be reduced by the amount of the rate decrease, as the
21case may be, or (ii) in the case of a limiting rate increase,
22the limiting rate shall be equal to the rate set forth in the
23proposition approved by the voters for each of the years
24specified in the proposition, after which the limiting rate of
25the taxing district shall be calculated as otherwise provided.

6clerk for the aggregate of all capped funds of the district for
