  1  5 year, to the county board of supervisors and the cities for
  1  6 the ensuing fiscal year which will include an itemized list of
  1  7 the number of emergency management personnel, their salaries
  1  8 and cost of personnel benefits, travel and transportation
  1  9 costs, fixed costs of operation, and all other anticipated
  1 10 emergency management expenses.  The increase in the agency's
  1 11 annual budget in a county with a population between one
  1 12 hundred sixty-five thousand and one hundred seventy thousand,
  1 13 according to the 1990 federal decennial census, is limited to
  1 14 an allowable growth rate.  The salaries and compensation of
  1 15 agency personnel coming under subject to the merit system as
  1 16 determined by the commission will shall include salary
  1 17 schedules for classes in which the salary of a class is based
  1 18 on merit qualifications for the positions.
  1 19    For purposes of this subsection, "allowable growth rate"
  1 20 means the percent change, computed to two decimal places,
  1 21 between the preliminary price index for the third quarter of
  1 22 the calendar year ending just prior to the beginning of the
  1 23 fiscal year for which the index is determined and the revised
  1 24 price index for the third quarter of the calendar year
  1 25 immediately prior to that calendar year, as published in the
  1 26 same issue in which such preliminary third quarter price index
  1 27 is first published.  The price index used shall be the state
  1 28 and local government chain-type price index used in the
  1 29 quantity and price indexes for gross domestic product, as
  1 30 published by the bureau of economic analysis of the United
  1 31 States department of commerce in the national income and
  1 32 products accounts as published in the survey of current
  1 33 business.

  2  4 tax revenues, which are obtained from any source in connection
  2  5 with the county emergency management program and which are to
