Resolution #22-23.07, 2022-2023 Appropriations Limit.pdf
Rationale: The purpose of the Gann Limit (Proposition 4, 1979) was to limit the growth in government funding. This limit applies not only to the State of California, but also cities, counties, special districts, and school districts. The District is required to calculate its appropriation limit and funds subject to the limit for Fiscal Year 2021-2022, and estimate its appropriations limit for Fiscal Year 2022-2023. Each year, the District’s appropriations limit is increased for both inflation and population. Inflation for these purposes is currently the annual percentage change in California per capita personal income. For school districts, change in average daily attendance (ADA) is used as a measurement for the change in population.

The starting point for the District's 2021-2022 appropriations limit calculation is the District's 2020-2021 appropriations limit and then it is adjusted by the 2021-2022 inflation factor, and by the District’s percentage change in ADA to arrive at the 2021-2022 appropriations limit. A second calculation is made to determine that current year 2022-2023 revenues, that are subject to the limit, do not exceed the limit. Staff completed the calculations and found that the District does not exceed the limit for 2021-2022 appropriations and 2022-2023 appropriations projections.
