DESCRIPTION:
Each year the City Council is required by State Law to adopt an Appropriations Limit (Limit) in
conjunction with the annual Budget process. The 2004-2005 Limit was calculated and adopted by
Resolution 121-04 on June 28, 2004. At the time the Limit was adopted, final information relating to the
population for the City of Dublin and thc amount of Non-Residential Assessed Valuation, both of which
arc uscd in thc calculation of the Limit, was not available. Now that the information is available, it is
recommended that the Council adopt a Revised Limit for Fiscal Year 2004-2005.
Description of Appropriations Limit
The laws regulating the application of the Limit, forbid an agency from appropriating specific funds that
would exceed the Limit. The restriction applies to appropriating monies categorized as "Proceeds of
Taxes." The Limit carries forward each year and is subject to an adjustment in accordance with a
spccified formula.
Each government entity is required to calculate a Limit and include it as part of the Annual Budget. This
Limit may also be referred to as the Gann Limit or Proposition 4 Limit. The City has complied with this
rcquircment, as well as the posting of the proposed calculation prior to adoption. The adjustment is made
annually and is based on a formula which may include the following factors (the City has the discrction to
pick onc factor from each category below):
· Change in City population; or
· Change in population for the entire County;
and
· Change in State per capita income; or
· Change in non-rcsidential assessed valuation.

2004-2005 Proposed Revised Appropriations Limit
Staff has prepared the calculations necessary to adopt the Revised Limit for Fiscal Year 2004-2005 in
accordance with State Law and with the Uniform Guidelines of the League of California Cities. The
discretionary factors selected in calculating the 2004-2005 Revised Limit are: (1) the change in the City
population, which represents the January I, 2004 population provided by the State Department of Finance;
and (2) change in the State per capita income, which represents the figures provided by the State
Departmcnt of Finance.
The Revised 2004-2005 Appropriations Limit, as calculated on Attachment 2 of the Proposed Resolution
(Attachment I) is $116,083,136, based upon a revised adjustment factor of 10.2% over the 2003-2004
Limit. Upon adoption, this figure becomcs the base limit, which will be increased by the adjustment factor
calculated for the subsequent fiscal year. Total appropriations for Fiscal Year 2004-2005 that are subjcct
to the Limit total $30,343,322 which is significantly below the allowed amount. Staff has prepared a
Resolution (Attachment 1) that will adopt a Revised Appropriations Limit for 2004-2005.
