RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Resolution No. 2016/412 establishing the appropriation limits for the County General, County Special Districts, and County Service Areas for fiscal year 2016/2017(Exhibit A). ADOPT attached Resolution establishing the corrected appropriation limits for the County General for fiscal year 2014/15 (Exhibit B) and fiscal year 2015/16 (Exhibit C).

FISCAL IMPACT:

Adopting the appropriation limits allows the County to spend its proceeds of taxes. All of the attached fiscal year 2016/17 limits exceed expected proceeds of taxes.

BACKGROUND:

The attached Resolution is required by Section 7910 of the Government Code and is calculated by the County Auditor-Controller. It is required that the governing body of each local jurisdiction shall establish an appropriation limit for each jurisdiction pursuant to Article XIII-B of the California Constitution. A review by MGO identified that an error in the data entry of the population growth factor for fiscal year 2014-15 was made.
Fiscal years 2014-15 and 2015-16 needed to be corrected to calculate the 2016-17 amount.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The County will fail to meet the requirements laid out in Article XIII-B of the California Constitution.
