Item 2A
City of Colfax Annual Appropriation Limits
Staff Report June 11, 2025
Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE JUNE 11, 2025 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Ron Walker, City Manager
Prepared by: Shanna Stahl, Administrative Services Officer Subject: Annual Appropriation Limits
Budget Impact Overview:
N/A: √ Funded: Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s):
Summary/Background
In 1979, California voters approved Proposition 4, an initiative that added Article XIII B to the California Constitution. This constitutional amendment, known as the Gann Initiative, placed limits on the growth of expenditures for publicly funded programs. Division 9 of Title 1, beginning with Section 7900 of the Government Code, was then added to law to specify the process for calculating state and local government appropriation limits and appropriations subject to limitation under Article XII B of the Constitution. These constitutional and statutory sections explain and define the appropriations limit and appropriations subject to limitation as they apply to state and local government and require that each entity of government formally "adopt" its appropriations limit for a given fiscal year and certify actual appropriations limit for the preceding year.
The data required to complete the calculation is provided by the State of California, Department of Finance.
The appropriation limit is calculated based on two factors: a percentage change in population in conjunction with a change in the cost of living or price. Under Proposition 111, there are options available for each of the calculation factors:
• Population Factor – The City can elect to utilize the percent growth in City population or the percent growth in County population.
• Price Factor – The City can elect to use the percent growth in State per capita personal income or the percent change in assessed valuation in new non-residential construction.
The population and price factors are multiplied together to calculate the Growth factor. The Growth factor is applied to the previous year calculated appropriated limit to determine the current fiscal year appropriation limit.
The Appropriations Limitation (Limit) imposed by the Propositions creates a restriction on the amount of revenue which can be appropriated in any fiscal year. Not all revenues are restricted by the Limit, only those which are referred to as “proceeds of taxes”. During any fiscal year, a city may not appropriate any proceeds of taxes they receive in excess of their Limit. In fact, any excess funds remaining after two years must be returned to the taxpayers.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution __-2025 certifying compliance with the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Appropriation Limitation and establishing the Appropriation Limitation for the Fiscal Year 2025- 2026
Item 2B
City of Colfax Annual Appropriation Limits
Staff Report June 11, 2025
For the 2025-2026 Appropriation Limit calculation, the growth in Placer County population of .24% is more favorable than the City of Colfax percent decline of -1.48% and has therefore been utilized in the calculation.
For the price factor, the percentage change in State per capita income of 6.44% is used to calculate the Limitation. The population and price factors are multiplied together for a combined factor of 1.067. The combined growth factor is applied to the fiscal year 2024-2025 Appropriation limit of $7,659,282 to determine the fiscal year 2025-2026 limit of $8,172,106.
Based on the estimated actuals for fiscal year 2024-2025 and the proposed fiscal year 2025-2026 budget the city will be well under its Appropriation Limit for both years.

*The City can elect to utilize the percent growth in City population or the percent growth in County population. Note: In June 2019, the City recalculated the historical Appropriations limit from original adoption in fiscal year 1981 to June 30, 2019. The total growth factor for each year is the City population factor multiplied by the per capita income factor for fiscal years 1980 to 1987 and the larger of the City or County population factor multiplied by the per capita income factor for fiscal years subsequent to 1987. Independent Accountants Report dated June 3, 2019.
Item 2B
May 2025
Dear Fiscal Officer:
Subject: Price Factor and Population Information
Appropriations Limit
California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 2227 requires the Department of Finance to transmit an estimate of the percentage change in population to local governments. Each local jurisdiction must use their percentage change in population factor for January 1, 2025, in conjunction with a change in the cost of living, or price factor, to calculate their appropriations limit for fiscal year 2025-26. Attachment A provides the change in California’s per capita personal income and an example for utilizing the price factor and population percentage change factor to calculate the 2025-26 appropriations limit. Attachment B provides the city and unincorporated county population percentage change along with the population percentage change for counties and their summed incorporated areas. The population percentage change data excludes federal and state institutionalized populations and military populations.
Population Percent Change for Special Districts
Some special districts must establish an annual appropriations limit. California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 2228 provides additional information regarding the appropriations limit.
Article XIII B, Section 9(C) of the California Constitution exempts certain special districts from the appropriations limit calculation mandate. The code section and the California Constitution can be accessed at the following website: http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes.xhtml. Special districts required by law to calculate their appropriations limit must present the calculation as part of their annual audit. Any questions special districts have on this requirement should be directed to their county, district legal counsel, or the law itself. No state agency reviews the local appropriations limits.
Population Certification
The population certification program applies only to cities and counties. California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 11005.6 mandates Finance to automatically certify any population estimate that exceeds the current certified population with the State Controller’s Office. Finance will certify the higher estimate to the State Controller by June 1, 2025. Please Note: The prior year’s city population estimates may be revised. The per capita personal income change is based on historical data.
If you have any questions regarding this data, please contact the Demographic Research Unit at (916) 323-4086.

Item 2B
May 2025
Attachment A
A. Price Factor: Article XIII B specifies that local jurisdictions select their cost of living factor to compute their appropriation limit by a vote of their governing body. The cost of living factor provided here is per capita personal income. If the percentage change in per capita personal income is selected, the percentage change to be used in setting the fiscal year 2025-26 appropriation limit is:
Per Capita Personal Income
Fiscal Year Percentage change
(FY) over prior year
2025-26 6.44
B. Following is an example using sample population change and the change in California per capita personal income as growth factors in computing a 2025-26 appropriation limit.
2025-26:
Per Capita Cost of Living Change = 6.44 percent
Population Change = 0.28 percent
Per Capita Cost of Living converted to a ratio: 6.44 + 100 = 1.0644 100

City of Colfax Public Hearing: Delinquent Sewer Service Charges and Refuse Staff Report June 11, 2025 Collection Fees
Staff Report to City Council
FOR THE JUNE 11, 2025 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
From: Ron Walker, City Manager
Prepared by: Shanna Stahl, Administrative Services Officer Subject: Public Hearing: Delinquent Sewer Service Charges and Refuse Collection Fees Budget Impact Overview:
N/A: √ Funded: Un-funded: Amount: Fund(s):
Summary/Background
Colfax Municipal Code (the “Code”) Title 8 and Title 13, authorizes the City to collect delinquent sewer service charges and delinquent refuse collection fees on the secured tax roll at the same time as general property taxes.
The Code requires the City Council to adopt a Resolution(s) in order to collect the delinquent charges on the tax roll.
Separate written reports for collection of delinquent sewer service charges and delinquent charges for refuse collection services have been prepared and are on file with the City. The written report for delinquent sewer service charges contains a description of each parcel receiving sewer services and facilities and the amount of the delinquent sewer service charges. The written report for delinquent refuse collection charges includes the parcel number of each parcel of real property upon which the charges are delinquent, the name(s) of the owner(s) of the real property to which refuse collection services were provided, the street address of the property served, the period of service, and the amounts due including reasonable administrative charges. All charges reflected in the written report have been computed in conformity with the Code.
A public hearing is required before the proposed Resolutions can be adopted. Notice of the Public Hearing regarding the delinquent accounts was published in the Auburn Journal once each week for two successive weeks prior to the hearing in compliance with the Code. All property owners with a delinquent balance were notified in writing of the public hearing process within the times required by the Code.
The purpose of the hearing is to allow the Council to hear objections and protests to the reports. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Council may adopt, revise, change, reduce or modify any sewer service charge or charge for refuse collection services in either report, sustain or overrule any objections to either report and adopt or decline to adopt the reports as modified. If the reports are adopted with or without modification, the City will file them with the County Auditor-Controller. The charges reflected in the final reports will be collected at the same time as ad valorem property taxes and remitted to the City, subject to a 1% County administrative charge. Placer County requires a resolution containing specific provisions to be adopted to collect the delinquent charges on the property tax roll.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Conduct a public hearing to consider public and staff comments and adopt separate resolutions __- 2025 and __-2025 requesting collection of delinquent sewer and refuse collection fees on the Placer County Tax Roll for Tax Year 2025-2026. 5A

Item 8A
City of Colfax Sierra Vista Community Center - Colfax Boys Basketball Staff Report June 11, 2025 Program
• Provides additional space for the spring & summer “Pursuit” skills and drills camp for 4th – 8th grade boys.
• Provides additional space as the attending number of boys has increased each year. • Provides space for the weeklong, four hour a day program with tournaments.
The Colfax Boys Basketball program, established in 1963, has seen more than 740 young men take the court.
Over the decades, the program has achieved 17 league championships and 5 section titles, consistently fielding highly competitive teams—despite Colfax High School being the smallest school in its league.
Beyond wins and accolades, the program has played a vital role in preparing young men for the challenges of life. Through basketball, players learn essential life lessons: the value of hard work, perseverance, overcoming adversity, being a supportive teammate, executing a plan with precision, how to win with humility, and how to turn losses into motivation for growth.
The coaching staff serves as mentors, emphasizing respect for others, honesty, integrity, personal commitment, and the conduct expected of young men in our community. Each time a player puts on the uniform, he is reminded that he represents not only his teammates but also the generations of athletes who came before—and the City of Colfax itself.
Over the years, every team has included players from challenging backgrounds, including many without father figures or stable home environments. For these young men, the basketball program has been more than a sport—it has provided structure, support, and a sense of belonging. The coaches create a team culture that feels like family, offering guidance that often extends far beyond the gym, the program and its coaches helped lay the foundation for the future successes of the participants.
Staff has received a request from Bob Morales of Sierra Soar Non-Profit to assist with raising funds to improve the basketball gym at the SVCC community center.
The items on the Sierra Soar Non-Profits wish list are:
• Two new glass backboards with brackets
• $900
• New basketball court lines
• $500 with tape machine
• Floor refinishing
• Last estimate was $10,000 without the lines, $12,000 with the lines • We are researching buying a floor sander and having local alumni volunteer their labor to sand and seal.
• Smart TV and rolling stand
• $500
• Local school logos painted on each wall by Foxy for:
o CHS
o Weimar
o Colfax Elementary
o Chicago Park
o Materials
• $100

Dear Colfax City Council,

City Manager
RE: Sierra View Community Center - Colfax Boys Basketball Program The Colfax Boys Basketball program began in 1963 and has had over 7 40 young men compete, producing 17 league championships and 5 section championships.
Colfax Basketball has produced highly competitive teams in a league where CHS has always been the smallest school.
It is more than basketball.
The program and coaches have been preparing our young men for the challenges of life. Many life lessons are taught including the benefits of hard work, perseverance and overcoming adversity, how to be a supportive teammate, learning to execute a plan with precision, how to win, and how to use a loss as motivation.
As mentors, the coaches emphasize the importance of having respect for others, honesty, integrity, commitment, and the actions expected of a young man in our community. When they put on the uniform, we remind them that they are representing all who came before them and the City of Colfax.
All teams have included players from broken homes. Many without father figures.
The program provides guidance, support, and a team" family" for these boys. As a young boy from a foster home myself, the coaches and program provided the foundation for many of my future successes.
I would not be the person I am today without the support and expectations set by my coaches when I was a child.
Our vision is to continue molding our future community leaders through the lessons of basketball.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Best regards,
l
