Such assessment will be levied on the 2025-26 and subsequent Secured property tax rolls per the schedule of parcel numbers and their corresponding assessments, except that assessments will not be placed on parcels which are low value exempt, public utilities, government-owned, or do not receive tax bills for some other reason.
