CITY OF REDDING
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Adopt Resolution establishing the appropriation limit for Fiscal Year 2023-24 for the City of
Redding at $286,911,340.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact from adopting an appropriation limit.
Background/Analysis
The Gann Spending Limitation Initiative (Proposition 4) was approved by the voters of
California on the November 1979 special ballot election. This Proposition created Article XIII B
of the State Constitution, which sets forth the calculation of State and local jurisdictions’ annual
appropriations limit on monies that can be spent from tax revenues. California Government Code
Section 7910 requires that each fiscal year, the governing body of the local agency must establish
the appropriations limit, by resolution, before the beginning of the following fiscal year. The
goal of Proposition 4 was to keep State and local government spending capped at 1978-79 levels,
adjusted for changes in population combined with either the change in California per capita
personal income or the change in the local assessment roll associated with new non-residential
construction. Under Proposition 4, if a city ends the fiscal year having exceeded its GANN limit,
it must return the excess to taxpayers within two years.
Staff has completed a calculation of the Fiscal Year 2023-24 appropriations limit for the City of
Redding (City) as follows:
Appropriation Limit 2022-23 $ 276,455,708
Percentage increases:
Per Capita Change 4.44%
Population Change -0.63%
