(2) Equalized valuation. The "equalized valuation" of a school district is the full value of the taxable property of the territory in the school district as certified for the prior year under
s. 121.06 (2), excluding value adjustments made under
s. 70.57 (1) resulting from appeals made under
s. 70.995. The "equalized valuation" of any taxable property in a tax incremental district shall not exceed its equalized value determined for the purpose of obtaining the tax incremental base of that district under
