(B) For each tax year after the first tax year in which the property is subject to the same partial exemption, shall equal 103 percent of the property’s assessed value for the prior year or 100 percent of the property’s maximum assessed value under this paragraph from the prior year, whichever is greater.

(B) For each tax year after the first tax year in which property is subject to the same special assessment, shall equal 103 percent of the property’s assessed value for the prior year or 100 percent of the property’s maximum assessed value subject to special assessment from the prior year, whichever is greater. (b) The assessed value of the property shall equal the lesser of: (A) The specially assessed value of the property as determined under the law establishing the special assessment; or (B) The property’s maximum assessed value subject to special assessment as determined under paragraph (a) of this subsection.
