GANN APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT Exhibit A
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 Carlsbad Municipal Water
District to annually choose among the following options for calculating its Gann
Limit:
> Population growth of Carlsbad, OR
P Population growth within San Diego County, AND
> Growth in California per capita income, OR
P Growth in non-residential assessed valuation due to new
construction in the City,
The factors used to calculate the 1997-98 Limit were:
> Population growth of Carlsbad, AND
> Growth in California per capita income.
The formula is outlined below:
1996-97 Expenditure Limit $1347,771
% Carlsbad Pop ulation Growth 1.0275
Growth in California per capita income X 1.0467
Net Increase Factor 1.0755
1997-98 Limit (1996-97 Limit X Factor) $1.449,547
Current Appropriation of Proceeds of Taxes $0.00
The spending limit for the Carlsbad Municipal Water District for 1997-98 is
$1,449,547 with no appropriations of “proceeds of taxes”. All revenues subject
to the Gann Appropriations Limit are appropriated within the capital replacement
fund and are therefore exempt.
