244.44. The maximum rate specific to the category of industrial immovables is the product obtained by multiplying the rate specific to the category of non-residential immovables by the applicable coefficient for the fiscal year concerned.
Where the municipality fixes a rate specific to the category of industrial immovables for a fiscal year, without doing so for the last fiscal year for which its property assessment roll in force immediately before the roll applying for the fiscal year for which the rate is fixed applied, the applicable coefficient for that fiscal year is the quotient resulting from the division under the first paragraph of section 244.45.
Where the municipality fixes such a rate after doing so for the last fiscal year for which that preceding roll applied, the applicable coefficient for the fiscal year for which the rate is fixed is the product obtained by multiplying the quotient resulting from the division under the first paragraph of section 244.45 by the coefficient applicable for that preceding fiscal year. However, the second paragraph applies, as if no rate specific to the category of industrial immovables had been fixed by the municipality for that preceding fiscal year, where that rate was equal to or less than the rate specific to the category of non-residential immovables.
