A. All amendments subsequent to the effective date of this chapter to Part 1 of Division 2 of the Revenue and Taxation Code relating to sales and use taxes and which are not inconsistent with Part 1.6 and Part 1.7 of Division 2 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, and all amendments to Part 1.6 and Part 1.7 of Division 2 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, shall automatically become a part of this chapter, provided however, that no such amendment shall operate so as to affect the rate of tax imposed by this chapter.
B. In the event that Los Angeles County voters approve a future measure after the effective date of this chapter or otherwise enacts a new transactions and use tax that, when aggregated with the city's transactions and use taxes under this chapter, causes the combined rate limit set forth in Revenue and Taxation Code Section 7152.1 to be exceeded, such future county measure shall not have any effect on the city's ability to levy and collect transactions and use taxes at the rates set forth herein. Unless state law is amended to increase the combined rate limit under Revenue and Taxation Code section 7251.1 or this chapter is later repealed or amended to reduce its tax rates, Los Angeles County shall not levy nor collect any transactions and use taxes within the territory of Signal Hill which were approved by Los Angeles County voters after the effective date of this chapter.
