If the municipality or locality is listed in Column 2 of Table 1, determine whether the land band for the land, as assigned by the assessment corporation, is listed in Column 3 of Table 1 for the applicable municipality or locality. If it is, take the steps described in paragraphs 3 and 5. If it is not, take the steps described in paragraphs 4 and 5.
3. For land located in a municipality or locality listed in Column 2 of Table 1 and assigned to a land band listed in Column 3 of Table 1, identify the applicable value per acre of the land as set out in Column 4 of Table 1.
