Resolution 2022-XX Page 3 of 3 Exhibit A to Resolution No. 2022-XX
Article XIIIB of the California Constitution (enacted with the passage of Proposition 4 in 1979, with modifications under Proposition 111 passed in June 1990, and implemented by California Government Code sections 7900, and following) provides the basis for the appropriations limitation. In brief, the City’s appropriations growth rate is limited to changes in population and either the change in California per capita income or the change in the local assessment roll due to new, non-residential construction. The formula to be used in calculating the growth rate is:
% change in population + 100
100
multiplied by either
% change in per capita income + 100
100
or
% change in assessment roll due to non-residential construction + 100 100
The resultant factor times the previous appropriations limit equals the new appropriations limit.

Both the California per capita personal income price factor and the population percentage change factor are provided by the State Department of Finance to local jurisdictions each year. The population percentage change factor estimates the change in the City’s population between January of the previous fiscal year and January of the current fiscal year. Reports that present changes in new non-residential assessed value are provided by the County of Alameda. These numbers provide the basis for the factor to be used in the City’s calculation of the appropriations limit. Of the two methods above, the City is using the “per capita personal income” factor because it results in the higher appropriations limit.

On May 2, 2022, the State Department of Finance notified each city of the population change factor and the per capita personal income factor to be used in determining the appropriations limit. The percentage change in per capita income is 7.55%. The calculation as applied to the City of Fremont for FY 2022/23 is as follows:

The population change on January 1 of the previous year (228,872) compared to the population on January 1, 2022 (229,476) is 604, or a 0.26% increase.

The change in per capita personal income is 7.55%.

The factor for determining the year-to-year increase is computed as:

0.26 + 100 X 7.55 + 100 = 1.0783
100 100
Applying this year’s factor of 1.0783 to last year’s limit of $813,770,383 yields the Appropriations Limit for FY 2022/23 of $877,488,604.

Based on an operating budget of $249,295,000 Fremont is not at risk of exceeding the appropriations limit. The Appropriations limit is adopted by the City Council concurrently with the adoption of the FY 2022/23 operating budget.
