 4        "The taxes imposed under this subparagraph 3 shall not be

12    register  with the municipality as a self-assessing purchaser
13    in relation to payment of the tax imposed by subparagraph  3,
14    on  the privilege of using or consuming electricity, and (ii)

16    municipality  on  the  basis of the uniform percentage of the
17    gross purchase price of electricity purchased at  retail  and
18    used  in  the  municipality rather than paying the tax to the
19    purchaser's delivering supplier.  The maximum rate of tax for
20    a self-assessing purchaser may not exceed 5% and the  minimum
21    rate  of  tax  shall  be no less than and, until December 31,
22    2008, the maximum rate of tax shall be no more than, the rate
23    the municipality applied in the last full calendar year prior

 7    of a self-assessing purchaser, (ii) direct return and payment
 8    of   the  taxes  to  the  municipality  by  a  self-assessing
 9    purchaser, and (iii) the rate of tax applied, which shall  be
10    the  percent  of the gross purchase price as provided in this
11    subsection up to but not exceeding  5%.   The  taxes  imposed
12    under  this  subsection (c-5) shall not be in addition to the
13    tax authorized by subparagraph 3,  but  rather  shall  be  an
14    alternative method to impose the tax.".
