CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers DATE: June 18, 2024 THROUGH: Jeremy Craig, City Manager FROM: Cathy Mathews, Director of Administrative Services SUBJECT: Appropriation Limit for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 RECOMMENDATION: Approve Resolution No. 2024-44 Establishing an Appropriation Limit Pursuant to Article XIII B of the California Constitution for Fiscal Year 2024-2025. BACKGROUND: In 1978, Proposition 13 was enacted, and as a follow up to Proposition 13, the voters of California amended the California Constitution in 1979 to limit the growth of governmental spending by passing Proposition 4. Proposition 4 created Article XIII B of the California Constitution that provides a formula for calculating spending limits for governments. Proposition 4 is commonly referred to as the Appropriation or Gann Limit. The Appropriation Limit restricts the amount of government revenue that may be appropriated in any fiscal year. The Appropriation Limit is based on actual appropriations during the base year and increases each year using specified growth factors. The Appropriation Limit applies to only those revenues defined as "proceeds of taxes". Proceeds of taxes generally refer to revenues in the General Fund, and some Special Revenue Funds. Proceeds of taxes include, but are not limited to: 1. All taxes levied by or for a Public Agency: a. Any revenue from regulatory licenses, user charges and user fees or charges to the extent that the proceeds exceed the cost of providing the regulation, product, or service. b. The following are NOT considered regulatory licenses, user charges and 14

user fees or charges for the purposes of the Appropriation Limit.  Rents, Concessions, entrance fees, franchise fees  Fine, forfeitures and penalties  Assessments on real property or person for special benefit conferred. 2. State Subventions for general purposes. a. State subventions include:  VLF in Lieu Fees that are not designated as per use; and  Homeowners Property Tax Relief b. State moneys provided to local governments with restricted uses are excluded from the local government’s Appropriation Limit, such as:  Gas Tax (HUTA)  Any interest earned from the investment of the proceeds of taxes. 3. Certain items are excluded from the Appropriations Limit, such as; a. State Mandate Reimbursements b. Certain types of Debt Service Costs c. Qualified Capital Outlay d. Costs of complying with court orders and federal mandates. e. Appropriation required to refund taxes. f. Local agency loan funds or indebtedness funds, or investment funds in bank accounts; and g. Redevelopment agency or successor agency property tax increment funds (because such agencies do not have the power to levy a property tax) DISCUSSION: As part of the annual budget consideration process, the City Council adopts the Appropriation Limit prior to the beginning of the fiscal year for which it pertains. The City of Winters has historically been cautious in its spending, and its annual budget appropriation has not exceeded its maximum Gann limit. The City’s Gann limit calculation is attached as Attachment 2, and at $10,890,339 is well below the City’s budget for those revenue sources included in the calculation. FISCAL IMPACT: None by this report. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Resolution 2024-44 2. Appropriation Limit for Fiscal Year 2024-25 3. Department of Finance 2024-25 Price Factor and Population Information 15
