9. If the citizens of a political subdivision approve an increase or decrease in the expenditure limitation as provided in article IX, section 20, subsection (6), Constitution of Arizona, the base limit of a political subdivision shall be adjusted by the commission such so that the expenditure limitation of the political subdivision for the fiscal year following approval reflects the approved increase or decrease.
B. For community college districts, the commission shall:
1. Determine the base limit of each community college district subject to an expenditure limitation pursuant to article IX, section 21, Constitution of Arizona.
