(1) Districts with general fund reserves, as defined in Section 16271, of 5 percent or less of their total 1977-78 revenues shall be given priority over districts with general fund reserves in excess of 5 percent of their total 1977-78 revenues.
(2) Districts which have relied most heavily upon revenues derived from property taxation to finance the provision of a service shall be given priority over those districts which are less dependent upon revenues derived from property taxation.
(3) Districts which are not authorized to utilize nonproperty tax revenue sources, including but not limited to fees, rates and tolls to finance the provision of a service shall be given priority over districts which are authorized to utilize such nonproperty tax sources.
