Capital Improvements: Multi-year Plan
The Five-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) represents an effort to identify major capital needs and schedule projects consistent with community priorities and available funding. The CIP will provide major investments into the community within the identied funding. Most of the funding for these projects will come from grants, development fees and tax revenues.

Implementation of the Five-Year Capital Improvement Program will require new sources of nancing to complete all projects listed. Several important projects are identied in the Parks, Streets and General Fund for which there is no assured funding.

Without increased participation by local, state and federal governments and other agencies, accomplishment of these projects will be delayed for many years. In addition, appropriate impact fee collection, and even possible transactions/use tax or other taxes will be important for the City to pursue and/or consider in order for timely delivery of necessary projects.

The Fast Track Hanford: High Speed Rail Connectivity and Historic Downtown Improvement Project is one of the City's largest projects in the General Fund commencing FY2027. This project involves the design and construction of a comprehensive set of mobility and safety improvements aimed at promoting micromobility (e.g., biking, walking, and rolling) while improving access to key destinations and transit systems in Hanford.

In future years, a new Public Safety Facility is identied as a signicant need. As the city continues to grow, the Police Department will need room for efcient operations. The facility is also hoped to potentially house Fire Administration. This project faces a planning level estimated cost of approximately $48 million. All costs up to construction and close-out would be paid for by Measure H.

Funding for these major projects along with all other projects is contingent on funding availability. The need for outside funding will be instrumental for delivery, otherwise the City will need to save up for these projects over time through sound scal practices such as a balanced budget, adequate collection of revenues and planning.

Encumbrance: A reservation of funds to cover obligations arising from purchase orders, contracts, or salary commitments that are chargeable to, but not yet paid from, a specic appropriation account.

Enterprise Funds: An enterprise fund is a separate accounting and nancial reporting mechanism for municipal services for which a fee is charged in exchange for goods or services. It allows a community to demonstrate to the public the portion of total costs of a service that is recovered through user charges and the portion that is subsidized by the tax levy, if any. With an enterprise fund, all costs of service delivery--direct, indirect, and capital costs—are identied. This allows the community to recover total service costs through user fees if it chooses. Enterprise accounting also enables communities to reserve the City of Hanford | Budget Book 2026, 2027

"surplus" or net assets unrestricted generated by the operation of the enterprise rather than closing it out to the general fund at year-end. Services that may be treated as enterprises include, but are not limited to, water, sewer, hospital, and airport services.

Equalized Valuations (EQVs): The determination of the full and fair cash value of all property in the community that is subject to local taxation.

It requires more complete information on the cost of delivering value estimates on public infrastructure assets, such as bridges, road, sewers, etc. It also requires the presentation of a narrative statement the government's nancial performance, trends and prospects for the future.

GASB 45: This is another Governmental Accounting Standards Board major pronouncement that each public entity account for and report other postemployment benets in its accounting statements. Through actuarial analysis, municipalities must identify the true costs of the OPEB earned by employees over their estimated years of actual service.

General Fund: The fund used to account for most nancial resources and activities governed by the normal appropriation process.

Indirect Cost: Costs of a service not reected in the operating budget of the entity providing the service. An example of an indirect cost of providing water service would be the value of time spent by non-water department employees processing water bills. A determination of these costs is necessary to analyze the total cost of service delivery. The matter of indirect costs arises most often in the context of enterprise funds.

Unreserved Fund Balance (Surplus Revenue Account): The amount by which cash, accounts receivable, and other assets exceed liabilities and restricted reserves. It is akin to a "stockholders’ equity" account on a corporate balance sheet. It is not, however, available for appropriation in full because a portion of the assets listed as "accounts receivable" may be taxes receivable and uncollected. (See Free Cash)
Valuation (100 Percent): The legal requirement that a community’s assessed value on property must reect its market, or full and fair cash value.

AGENDA

STAFF REPORT

MEETING DATE: 6/3/2025 AGENDA SECTION: GENERAL BUSINESS

SUBJECT:

Adoption of Resolution 25-32-R establishing the 2025/2026 appropriations limit of $98,702,022 for the City of Hanford's General Fund

RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation: Staff recommends that City Council adopt Resolution 25-32-R establishing the appropriations limit (Gann Appropriations Limit) for the 2025/2026 fiscal year in the amount of $98,702,022 for the General Fund.

Recommended Motion: I move to adopt Resolution 25-32-R establishing the appropriation limit (Gann Appropriations Limit) for the 2025/2026 fiscal year in the amount of $98,702,022 for the General Fund.

BACKGROUND:

Annually, City Council is required by the State to approve the appropriation limit for the City of Hanford. The Appropriation Limitation imposed by Propositions 4 and 111, known as the Gann Appropriations Limit, creates a restriction on the amount of tax proceeds which can be appropriated in any fiscal year. The limit bears little to no meaningful connection to the City budget (the appropriations limit established by the required formula is substantially higher than City of Hanford tax proceeds both currently and historically). The limit is based on actual appropriations during the 1978-79 fiscal year and is increased each year by a factor comprised of the change in population combined with the change in California per capita personal income.

The General Fund is the only fund subject to the appropriation limit mandated by the State of California. Any challenge to the appropriations limit must be brought within 45 days from the effective date of the resolution.

The State of California Department of Finance provides the population and California per capita personal income change data for local jurisdictions to calculate their appropriations limit. Based on the following data received from the Department of Finance, a population change of 2.31% and per capita income change of 6.44%, the appropriations limit for Hanford is $98,702,022. The General Fund appropriation subject to limitation for the fiscal year 2025/2026 is $54,707,170 which is well under the appropriations limit as shown in Table 1, Gann Appropriations Limit.

Table 2, lists General Fund proceeds of taxes. As shown in Table 1, the amount of taxes is equivalent to the budgeted expenditures subject to the 2025/2026 limit.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

RESOLUTION No. 25-21-R

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HANFORD ESTABLISHING THE 2025/2026 APPROPRIATONS LIMIT

WHEREAS, in 1979, California voters approved Proposition 4 (Article XIII-B of the California State Constitution). Informally known as the “Gann Initiative,” Article XIII-B provides limits to the amount of tax proceeds state and local governments can spend each year.

WHEREAS, in 1980, the State Legislature added Section 9710 of the Government Code stating that the governing body of each City must establish, by resolution, an appropriations limit for the following year.

The limit for any fiscal year is equal to the previous year’s limit, adjusted for population changes and the change in the U.S. Consumer Price Index (or California per capita personal income, if smaller). The necessary statistical information is provided by the California Department of Finance.

WHEREAS, Proposition 111 modified Article XIII-B. A City may choose which annual adjustments to use.

The adjustment factors include the growth in the California Per Capita Income, or the growth in the non- residential assessed valuation.

AND IT FURTHER provided for the 2025-26 fiscal year, any challenge to the appropriations limit must be brought within 45 days from the effective date of the resolution.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the appropriations limit as defined by Propositions 4 and 111 is set at $98,702,022 for 2025/2026 fiscal year using a percentage change population growth factor of

2.31% and percentage change in per capita income of 6.44% as established by the California Department of Finance.

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, 20 25, 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.

Attachment

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

Population converted to a ratio: 0.28 + 100 = 1.0028 100

Calculation of factor for FY 2025-26: 1.0644 x 1.0028 = 1.0674
