     7  current base proportion of any class shall not exceed the adjusted  base
     8  proportion  or  adjusted  proportion,  whichever  is appropriate, of the
     9  immediately preceding year by more than one percent. Where the  computa-
    10  tion  performed  pursuant  to  paragraph  (b)  of this subdivision would
    11  otherwise produce such result, the current base proportion of such class
    12  or classes shall be limited to such one percent increase and the  legis-
    13  lative  body of such special assessing unit shall alter the current base
    14  proportion of any or all remaining  classes  so  that  the  sum  of  the
    15  current base proportions equals one.

    22  thousand three - two thousand four, two thousand  four  -  two  thousand
    23  five  and  two  thousand  five  - two thousand six assessment rolls, the
