ITEM: GANN APPROPRIATION LIMIT FOR FISCAL YEAR
2022/ 23
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution Determining the Total Annual Appropriations Subject to Limitation, for Fiscal Year
2022/ 23
SUMMARY:
California voters adopted the GANN Initiative ( also known as GANN Limit) in 1979.
The purpose of the GANN Initiative is to limit tax revenues which can be appropriated in any fiscal year. The GANN Limit is calculated by increasing the base year tax revenues by the Population Growth factor and one of the following: 1. Changes in Assessed Values attributed to Non- Residential Growth or 2. Changes in the Per Capita Personal Income factor whichever is greater and readily available. To comply with Article XIII. B of the State Constitution and Government Code 7900 and as part of the budget process, the City adopts the GANN Limit.
After reviewing the GANN Limit' s growth factors, staff recommends using the Assessed Value attributed to Non- Residential Growth to set the appropriation limit at 303, 219, 763 ( Attachment " B") for Fiscal Year 2022/ 23. The Fiscal Year 2022/ 23 budget remains in compliance within the appropriation limit.
BACKGROUND:
The GANN Limit originated with Proposition 4 and was passed by California voters in November 1979 ( also known as the Gann Initiative). The purpose of the GANN Limit is to limit tax growth.
Section 7910 of the Government Code of the State of California requires that the governing bodies of each local jurisdiction establish its appropriation limit for the following fiscal year pursuant to Article XIIIB of the State Constitution ( GANN Initiative). The GANN Initiative limits the amount of revenue which can be appropriated in any fiscal year. However, not all revenues are restricted, only those referred to as proceeds of taxes". The limit is adjusted annually for population growth, inflation/ per capita income or changes to non- residential new construction, and other factors. Certain appropriations are exempt from the GANN Limit, such as voter- approved debt, court orders, and federal mandates.
The GANN Limit is calculated by increasing the base year tax revenues annually by a population growth factor and by one of the following:
1. The increase in Assessed Value attributed to Non- Residential Growth; or
2. The increase or decrease in California Per Capita Personal Income CITY MANAGER' S REPORT PAGE 2
