FINANCIAL IMPACT
Approval of the item will not result in the use of additional Discretionary General Funding (Net County Cost). This action will provide additional appropriation authority needed by San Bernardino County and Board-governed agencies to continue to operate at normal levels. The additional limits will not increase the 2022-23 budgets for the respective entities.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Limits on the appropriations of the proceeds of tax revenues are required to be established annually by Article XIII B of the California Constitution for all agencies receiving tax proceeds. Proposition 111, approved by the voters on June 6, 1990, amended Article XIII B allowing governmental entities to use an alternative computation to determine the appropriations limits when such calculations are of benefit to the entity. These factors include the percentage change in per-capita personal income from the preceding year or the percentage change in the local assessment roll from the preceding year due to the addition of local non-residential new construction.
The appropriations limit for each entity on Attachment “A” is calculated using the highest cost of living factor currently available and reflects an overall increase of 7.80% from fiscal year 2021-22. At this time, only the percentage change in per-capita personal income is available. Upon receipt of the change in non-residential new construction factor, the appropriations limit of each entity will be recalculated to determine if using the new factor is more beneficial and warrants a change to the annual appropriations limits of the various entities of the County. If adopting a revised limit is required for any of these entities, the Auditor-Controller/Treasurer/Tax Collector will request approval of the amended appropriations limits by the appropriate governing body on a separate Board Agenda Item at that time.
