The Department owns several dozen small engine tools under 50 hp used for trimming, blowing, trenching, sweeping, concrete cutting, pressure washing, compacting, limb sawing and concrete mixing. This program budgets for several small engines to be replaced every two years as they wear out. In October 2023, the State of California passed AB 1346, which barred the sale of gas-powered lawn and landscape equipment beginning in 2024. In order to ensure compliance with the new State mandate, Public Works will begin transitioning its small engine tools to electric. This transition will provide the added benefit of noise and pollution reduction as gas-powered equipment is phased out. $ 10,000

Description of General Fund Costs
The Department owns five riding mowers for maintenance activities involving mowing the 35 acres of Lacy Park, as well as the landscaped medians on Huntington Drive and Sierra Madre Boulevard. Two of the mowers are electric-powered (purchased in FY 23-24), with the remaining three being gas-powered. A new electric mower will help improve the frequency of the City's maintenance activities at Lacy Park as well as medians and other landscaped areas of the public right-of-way. Additionally, the purchase of an electric mower will help the City meet new State requirements regarding the usage of electric vehicles and equipment. Beginning in 2024, manufacturers will begin phasing out gas-powered mowers, making it more difficult to find replacement parts for the City's existing equipment. The Department recommends purchasing a mower every other year beginning until the mower fleet is completely electric. As this is an electric mower, AQMD funds may be used to assist with the purchase. The estimated price based on quotes obtained from qualified vendors is $60,000, although this amount may be able to cover the purchase of two mowers depending on potential AQMD exchange rebates. Staff will explore potential funding opportunities to lessen the overall financial impact to the City. A new mower has an expected useful life of 20 years, and would improve maintenance staff efficiency. $ 50,000

Description of General Fund Costs
Currently, the Department manages a fleet of 37 passenger vehicles (does not include specialized heavy trucks/equipment, ambulances, etc.) Traditionally, the City has purchased these vehicles and outfitted them before introducing them into the fleet. Given fluctuating vehicle costs and extended lead times, this process can be somewhat expensive, lengthy, and requires excessive staff time to manage. Additionally, the City has several vehicles that are over a decade old and require frequent repairs.
As such, the City is proposing a transition to a fleet leasing system through Enterprise that will help enhance service delivery, helping meet one the City Council's Priority Initiatives. Enterprise has developed a plan to replace several vehicles each year with leased vehicles. These vehicles will typically be switched out every few years to ensure functionality and avoid costly breakdowns, and the City will receive proceeds for the re-sale of any vehicle by Enterprise. Although potential for revenue from the re-sale exists, the revenue is not budgeted for due to the variability of potential re-sale value. City staff will continue to perform maintenance on all vehicles and equipment. Ultimately, the benefits of the vehicle leasing system would be 1) reduced wear and tear on vehicles and more efficient replacement of vehicles, 2) long-term cost savings. Per conversations with Enterprise, the first year of the program would introduce seventeen (17) leased vehicles for a total cost of $165,000. $ 165,000

The City's Fleet Division performs maintenance and repairs on all City-owned vehicles and equipment. As part of their routine, day-to-day work, a vehicle lift is used to perform repairs. The Department's existing lift is multiple decades old and near the end of its service life. In addition, newer vehicles are larger and cannot be lifted into the garage. As such, the Department is requesting a new vehicle lift to enable the Fleet Division to continue efficiently performing repairs. The new lift would also be mobile, which would allow Fleet staff to move the lifts into the wash bay (higher clearance area), which would allow them to services the larger vehicles more easily.

The Department owns a single changeable message sign that can advise residents of construction, traffic delays, lane closures, or any other safety related messaging while driving. It is recommended that an additional sign be procured in order to provide messaging on both sides of closures and at multiple locations throughout the City. These signs are typically deployed at large special events, such as the 4th of July and the Homecoming Parade, and can also be deployed in the event of significant construction or an accident that requires lane closure. As the sign can relay traffic and public safety related messaging, it will benefit multiple City departments, including Parks and Public Works, Police, and Fire. $ 25,000

Description of General Fund Costs
Public seating in the Library consists of 282 pieces, including 116 mesh and 166 upholstered pieces of furniture purchased in 2008.
The Library is open seven days a week, 52 weeks a year and logs more than 100,000 visits a year. Fabric cleaning has occurred, but given the fact that the furniture is 16 years old and is subject to heavy use, a phased replacement of 180 chairs and re-upholstery of 18 chairs is recommended.
Of the 180 chairs to be replaced, 64 are desk chairs. These desk chairs are structurally unsound; the back is constructed of a series of thin lateral slats that break when the chair is pulled away from a table to allow a patron to sit. Due to this design the chairs are not able to withstand constant use. Staff would like to replace these with traditional, armless wood chairs. The remaining 116 chairs to be replaced would be swapped for vinyl seating, which can withstand high use.
Vinyl seat re-upholstery is recommended for the 18 pieces that are structurally sound, but have fabric that is in poor condition.
Moving away from fabric to easy to care for seating surfaces will allow staff to maintain an attractive and welcoming environment for the community we serve, while ensuring that the funds spent will stretch further than replacement with fabric. $ 43,000

DATE: May 30, 2025
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION NO. R-25-17 ESTABLISHING THE APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025-26
STRATEGIC PLAN CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTORS
Efficient, Responsive, and Effective City Services
Fiscally Responsible and Transparent City Government
BACKGROUND
In 1979 and 1990, California voters approved Proposition 4 (the “Gann Initiative”) and Proposition 111, respectively. Proposition 4 placed limits on the amount of tax proceeds that can be received and appropriated by governments in the State. Proposition 111 provided an adjustment formula to allow for local growth factors. Each year, governments throughout the State adopt a resolution establishing their appropriations limit as well as their appropriations that are subject to the limit.
DISCUSSION
Each year, two change factors are combined in a single adjustment factor and applied to the prior year’s appropriations limit to arrive at the new appropriations limit for the upcoming fiscal year.
1. Local agencies are allowed to use the larger of the City’s population growth or their County’s population growth. For calendar 2025, on which the FY 2025- 26 limit is based, the State Department of Finance reports that the population of the County of Los Angeles increased while the City’s population decreased.
The County’s population increase of 0.30% was used for the City’s FY 2025- Gretchen Shepherd Romey, Mayor
Tony Chou, Vice Mayor
Hunter Chang, Council Member
John Chou, Council Member
Calvin Lo, Council Member
PAGE 478 of 496
26 limit calculation this year. The City’s population change of -0.09% was smaller.
2. Agencies are allowed to use as a “cost of living” factor the larger of the change in California per capita income or the growth in non-residential assessed valuation due to new construction. The change in California per capita income, 6.44%, was used in the City’s FY 2025-26 limit calculation. The change in non-residential assessed property valuation in San Marino has not been measured, and is assumed to be less than 6.44%.
The proposed FY 2025-26 appropriations limit is $36,633,108 and the proposed budget appropriations subject to the limit are $30,578,202, or 83% of the maximum allowed.
Exhibit A to the accompanying resolution shows how the FY 2025-26 appropriations limit was calculated. Exhibit B is the narrative discussion of the Gann Appropriations Limit and its implications for the City of San Marino that is proposed to be included in the final FY 2025-26 adopted budget document along with Resolution No. R-25-17 and Exhibit A.
FISCAL IMPACT & PROCUREMENT REVIEW
Because the proposed appropriations subject to the limit are less than the appropriations limit, there is no direct fiscal impact resulting from approval of the Resolution.
This report requires no procurement review.
LEGAL REVIEW
The City Attorney's office has reviewed and approved as to form.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of the proposed FY 2025-26 appropriations limit and the appropriations subject to limitation for the City of San Marino. If the City Council concurs with staff’s recommendation, an appropriate motion would be:
“I move to approve Resolution No. R-25-17, Establishing the Appropriations Limit and Appropriations Subject to Limitation for Fiscal Year 2025-26.” PAGE 479 of 496

SUBJECT TO LIMITATION FOR FISCAL YEAR 2025-26
WHEREAS, Article XIII-B of the California State Constitution requires that each entity of government determine and adopt an Appropriations Limit for each fiscal year; and
WHEREAS, Proposition 111 requires a recorded vote of the City Council regarding which of the annual adjustment factors have been selected each year, and WHEREAS, the local voters of San Marino have approved an increase in the City’s appropriations limit consistent with the maximum projected aggregate collection authorized by the levy of the Public Safety Parcel Tax, in accordance with Section 12 of Ordinance No. O-24-1412.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of San Marino, California as follows:
SECTION 1. The annual adjustment factors used in the calculation of the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Appropriations Limit are the County population change of 0.30% and the change in California Per Capita Personal Income of 6.44%.
SECTION 2. The FY 2025-26 Appropriations Limit for the City of San Marino for the Fiscal Year 2025-26 is hereby determined to be $36,633,108 in accordance with calculations contained in Exhibit A hereto.
SECTION 3. Appropriations designated in the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Proposed Budget that are subject to the limit total $30,578,202, representing an amount that is 83% of the limit.

Gann Appropriations Limit Calculation

EXHIBIT B
Implications of the Gann Appropriations Limit
In November 1979, California voters followed up the tax limitations of 1978’s Proposition 13 with an amendment to the State Constitution to limit the growth of government spending. A voter initiative, Proposition 4, was passed into law in 1979 and later amended by Proposition 111 in 1990. This spending limit, commonly known as the “Gann Limit,” was named after Proposition 4’s sponsor Paul Gann, appears in the state Constitution as Article XIIIB. The Gann Limit creates a restriction on the amount of tax proceeds that a government agency may receive and appropriate in any one year.
The limit is based on actual appropriations from the 1986-87 base year. Increases to the limit are allowed each year based on specified growth factors. Inflationary adjustments are based on changes in California per capita personal income or the change in nonresidential assessed valuation. Population adjustments are based on changes in the population of the City or Los Angeles County.
Since 1980, San Marino voters have approved a public safety parcel tax for public safety services and, at the same time, have approved an override of the City’s appropriations limit for this parcel tax revenue, to increase the limit by the amount of the annual parcel tax levy.
The City of San Marino’s FY 2025-26 Appropriations Limit was adopted by resolution on May 30, 2025 as required by the California Government Code. The City’s FY 2025-26 appropriations limit is $36,633,108 and its appropriations subject to limitation is $30,578,202. The appropriations margin, the difference between the limit and the appropriations subject to limitation, is therefore $6,054,906, and appropriations subject to limitation are 83% of the limit.
For the past five fiscal years, appropriations subject to limitation have ranged between 65% and 83% of the legal limit. The FY 2025-26 limit is within this same range, indicating that the legal limit has been increasing at a pace roughly in line with the growth in appropriations subject to limitation.
For five of the past six years, the population factor for the City has been negative. In years where there are negative population factors, the limit each year will grow by less than the annual inflation rate, which may result in a decrease in the City’s appropriations margin in future years.
