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 to 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, 2025.
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 2024-25. In
fiscal year 2022-23, the Proceeds of Taxes were $323,170,905 and the actual General
Fund expenditures were $374,898,249.
Using the formula provided by the state, staff calculated the spending limitation from
"Proceeds of Taxes" as $1,427,985,554 (Exhibit 1) for fiscal year 2024-25, which is the
FY 2022-23 limit increased by 3.94%. 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 2024-25 anticipated revenues from "Proceeds
of Taxes" and "Non -Proceeds of Taxes." Exhibit 3 computes the FY 2024-25
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 2024-25 appropriations subject to limitation is $318,718,831, which is
$1,109,266,723 less than the allowable GANN Limit.

RESOLUTION NO. 2024-XXX
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
2024-2025
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
Constitution at a regularly scheduled meeting or noticed special meeting.
Fifteen days prior to the meeting, documentation used in the determination
of the appropriations limit and other necessary determinations shall be
available to the public.
G. This matter came before the City Council at its regularly scheduled meeting
of June 18, 2024.
H. The Executive Director of the Finance and Management Services Agency
of the City of Santa Ana has determined the City's appropriation limit for
fiscal year 2024-2025 in accordance with said provisions of the Constitution
and laws of the State of California, and the documentation used in the
determination has been available to the public since not later than June 3,
2024, in the office of the Executive Director of the Finance and Management
Services Agency.
Section 2. Based upon the above referenced facts, and all facts specified in the
accompanying Request for Council Action and its attachments, and each of them, the
appropriation limit of the City of Santa Ana for fiscal year 2024-2025 is hereby found and
determined to be $1,427,985,554.
Section 3. This Resolution shall take effect thirty (30) days after its adoption by
the City Council, and the City Clerk shall attest to and certify the vote adopting this
Resolution.
ADOPTED this day of 12024.
