The local commission in charge of evaluating the charges and resources transferred from the Rhône department calculates the theoretical metropolitan net savings rate that would result from the transfer, by the Rhône department, of the actual operating revenue attached to the territory of the Lyon metropolis and the actual charges, estimated under the conditions set out in l’article L. 3663-4. In the same way, it calculates the theoretical departmental net savings rate that would result from the collection of the actual operating revenues attached to the territory of the new Rhône department and the actual expenses that it will continue to assume, estimated according to the same methods as those used for the metropolis in application of the same article L. 3663-4.
For the purposes of this article, the net savings rate corresponds to the excess of actual operating revenue over actual operating expenses, net of capital amortisation of the debt, as a ratio of actual operating revenue.
The local commission in charge of assessing the charges and resources transferred from the Rhône department estimates, finally, the amount of the metropolitan compensation grant suitable for correcting the effects of the territorial distribution of products previously received by the Rhône department, so as to guarantee, on the date of the creation of the Lyon metropolis, the equality of the two theoretical savings rates mentioned above.
