TOPIC: Resolution establishing the Appropriations Limit for FY 2021-22
AGENDA TITLE:
Adopt a Resolution Establishing the Appropriations Limit of the City of Santa Ana for
Fiscal Year 2021-22
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution establishing the appropriations limit of the City of Santa Ana for FY
2021-22, as required by state law.
DISCUSSION
The State of California Constitution imposes a limit (“the GANN Limit”) on tax proceeds
to be appropriated for expenditures by a local government in any given fiscal year and
requires the cities establish this limit by resolution. Adoption of the subject resolution is
necessary for compliance with the California constitution for the fiscal year ending June
30, 2022.
Furthermore, Section 13-90 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code requires the creation of a
Reserve Fund for Excess Proceeds of Taxes (Reserve Fund), as a separate accounting
of taxes received in a fiscal year prior to the period of expenditure. The City appropriates
the expenditure of tax revenue in the same fiscal year of receipt, and therefore creation
of the Reserve Fund is not necessary for the fiscal year 2021-22. In fiscal year 2019-20,
the Proceeds of Taxes were $251,901,274 and the actual General Fund expenditures
were $310,856,434.
Using the formula provided by the state, staff calculated the spending limitation from
“Proceeds of Taxes” as $1,231,615,395 (Exhibit 1) for fiscal year 2021-22, which is the
FY20-21 limit increased by 4.84%. The funds constrained by the appropriations limit
include the General Fund, the Capital Outlay Fund, and Special Revenue Funds.
Exhibit 1 identifies the factors used to determine the allowable inflationary increase from
the prior year. Exhibit 2 categorizes FY 2021-22 anticipated revenues from “Proceeds of
Taxes” and “Non-Proceeds of Taxes”. Exhibit 3 computes the FY 2021-22 appropriations
subject to this limitation, and identifies the difference between the limit and the budgeted
appropriation. As demonstrated in Exhibit 3, the City’s anticipated fiscal year 2021-22

appropriations subject to limitation is $264,013,204, which is $967,602,191 less than the
allowable GANN Limit.

RESOLUTION NO. 2021-
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA ESTABLISHING THE APPROPRIATION LIMIT
OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA FOR FISCAL YEAR
2021-2022
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines
and declares as follows:
A.Article XIIIB of the Constitution of the State of California, adopted by the
voters of the State of California in 1979, imposes upon State and local
government the obligation to limit each fiscal year’s appropriations to those
established in fiscal year 1978-79 as adjusted for by inflation and
population, together with other specified changes required or permitted.
B.In June of 1990, the voters of the State of California approved Proposition
111, which amended Article XIIIB to establish the limit originally calculated
for fiscal year 1986-87 as a new adjustment base, and to change the
definition of the cost of living to be either the percentage change in
California per capita personal income from the preceding year or the
percentage change in the local assessment roll from the preceding year for
the jurisdiction due to the addition of local non-residential new construction.
C.Proposition 111 further modified Article XIIIB requirements by making
certain capital outlay, debt service, emergency and court ordered
expenditures not subject to the limit, and by allowing expenditures in excess
of one year's limit to be offset by under expenditures in an immediately
following year.
D.The City of Santa Ana has opted to use as the inflation adjustment factor,
the percentage change in the California per capita personal income from
the preceding year.
E.The City of Santa Ana has opted to use as the population adjustment factor,
the County’s percentage change in population from the preceding year.
F.Section 7910 of the Government Code of the State of California requires
the governing body of each local jurisdiction each year to, by resolution,
establish its appropriations limit and make other necessary determinations
for the following fiscal year pursuant to Article XIIIB of the California
