Exhibit 6A
CITY OF CARLSBAD
GANN APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT
The Appropriations Limitation imposed by Proposition 4 and modified by Proposition 111
creates a restriction on the amount of revenue which can be appropriated in any fiscal year.
The revenues which are subject to the Limitation are those considered "proceeds of taxes." The
basis for calculating the Limit began in fiscal year 1978-79 and is increased based on population
growth and inflation.
The major change made by Proposition 111 allows the City to annually choose among the
following options for calculating its Gann Limit:
> Population growth of Carlsbad, OR
> Population growth within San Diego County, AND
> Growth in California per capita income, OR
> Growth in non-residential assessed valuation due to new construction in the City.
The factors used to calculate the 2009-10 Limit were:
> Population growth in Carlsbad, AND
> Growth in California per capita income
The formula is outlined below:
2008-09 Expenditure Limit $190.695.381
% Carlsbad Population Growth 1.0120
Growth in California per capita income X 1.0062
Net Increase Factor 1.0183
2009-10 Limit (2008-09 Limit X Factor) $194.185.106
Current Appropriation of Proceeds of Taxes $94,670,360
(Subject to the Limit)
The spending limit for the City of Carlsbad for 2009-10 is $194.2 million, with appropriations of
"proceeds of taxes" of $94.7 million. The result of the calculation provides the City with an
operating margin of $99.5 million.
