calculated.

For counties with urban renewal revenue allocation areas and funds with levies calculated
including all or part of urban renewal revenue allocation area increment value pursuant to Sections 50-2908(1)(a)

dividing the sums determined in Subparagraphs 989.06.b.ii., iii., and iv., by the net taxable value of the county
including the entire increment value, part of the increment value, or none of the increment value, depending on
whether all, part, or none of the increment value has been used to determine the levy.
