Adopt a Concurrent Resolution establishing Fiscal Year 2017-18 appropriation limits for County and Board of Supervisors-Governed Special Districts, County Service Areas, Sonoma County Agricultural Preservation and Open Space District, and Sonoma County Water Agency. B. Authorize the Chair to execute a Memorandum of Agreement Regarding Transfer of Appropriations Limit with the North Sonoma Coast Fire Protection District, as result of establishment of the new independent district in FY 2016-17. Executive Summary: This item details the FY 2017-18 Appropriations Limit calculations for the County of Sonoma and Board of Supervisors-governed special districts and agencies. In addition, due to establishment of the North Sonoma Coast Fire Protection District in FY 2016-17, this item discusses the need to execute an agreement to transfer appropriations limit of $2.3 million from the County Service Area #40 special district to the newly formed independent district. In accordance with the California Constitution, the County s appropriations limit specifies the maximum amount of tax revenue it is allowed to appropriate within a given fiscal year. The County s FY 2017-18 Proposition 4 Appropriation Limit capacity is $628.5 million, which is $335.6 million more than the County s adopted budget revenues of $292.9 million that are subject to the limit. Notice of establishing the FY 2017-18 Appropriation Limits was published January 26, 2017 in the Santa Rosa Press Democrat. The documentation and supporting materials to establish the limit have been available for public review since January 26, 2017 at the County Administrator's Office. Pursuant to Article XIII-B of the California Constitution, and Section 7910 of the Government Code, the attached resolution formally establishes the appropriation limits, and includes notice of the appropriate period of judicial review.

Revision No. 20170501-1 Discussion: Background On November 6, 1979, voters approved the Gann Spending Limitation (Proposition 4), which established Article XIII-B of the State Constitution. Article XIII-B sets limits on the amount of tax revenues the State and most local governments can appropriate within a given fiscal year. The Gann Limit does not apply to the entire County budget. The limit only applies to appropriations from proceeds of taxes from both the general fund and special funds of government entities, which includes: (1) property, sales, transient occupancy, and other tax revenues; (2) interest earnings on invested tax revenues; and (3) any revenues collected by a regulatory license fee or user charge in excess of the amount needed to cover the cost of providing that regulation, product, or service. Further refined by Propositions 98 and 99 in 1988, and Proposition 111 in 1990, Article XIII-B provides that appropriation limits are to be established annually by each governmental entity in accordance with the constitutional amendments and enabling state legislation. Current appropriation limits are generally based upon actual revenue appropriations during the initial base year of FY 1986-87 (per Prop 111), and adjusted annually thereafter to account for California per capita cost of living increases, and year-over-year population growth as published by the California State Department of Finance. The limits for Fiscal Year 2017-18 must be adopted for County government and those Board of Supervisors-governed special districts and County service areas that had a property tax rate of 12.5 cents or more per $100 of assessed valuation in 1977-78. Appropriations from non-tax revenues and proceeds are excluded from the limit, such as: Federal funds, charges for services, regulatory fees, grants, loans, and donations. Exemptions are also made for voter-approved debt, debt that existed as of January 1, 1979, and the cost of compliance with court or Federal government mandates. Of particular note, Proposition 111 (The Traffic Congestion Relief and Spending Limitation Act of 1990) amended Article XIII-B to allow for funding congestion relief, mass transit, health care, services for the elderly, and other priority programs, while still providing an overall limit on state and local spending. Proposition 111 changed the previous Constitutional cost-of-living and population factors for both the state and local appropriations limits, and added new exclusions from the appropriations limit. However, none of the exclusions allowed by Proposition 111 were employed in the County s calculation for FY 2017-18, as total revenues appropriations are far below the new limit. In general, the County may not exceed the appropriation limit adopted today. However, in the event of a declared emergency, the appropriation limit may be increased. Voters of a jurisdiction may also authorize a temporary increase in the Appropriations Limit, not to exceed a period of four years, at which point the limit would revert to what it would otherwise have been. If revenues exceed the adopted appropriation limit for two consecutive fiscal years, the County would return the excess through a revision of the tax rates in the two subsequent fiscal years. Based on the FY 2017-18 appropriation limit capacity, which exceeds projected applicable revenues by $335.6 million, it is unlikely that this situation would occur for the County in the near future.

Revision No. 20170501-1 Fiscal Year 2017-18 Calculations Pursuant to Article XIII-B and Government Code section 7900, et seq., the Fiscal Year 2017-18 Appropriations Limit will be established by adjusting the Fiscal Year 2016-17 Appropriations Limit for (a) population growth, (b) per capita income change, and (c) the transfers of financial responsibility described below. A. Proposition 111 - Factors for Limit Calculation The California State Department of Finance sends to local governments an annual letter providing an estimate of the percent change in population and change in the per capita personal income, which are both used to calculate each local government s appropriation limit. The Department s letter dated May 2017 provides key factors to adjust the FY 2017-18 spending limit (refer to Resolution Exhibit A). According to the letter, the following percentages can be utilized in computing the appropriations limits for the County and special districts governed by the Board of Supervisors: Year Table 1: Appropriation Limit Change Factors Sonoma County Plus Contiguous County Population Change Factor Total County Population Change Factor County Population Change Factor California Per Capita Personal Income Factor 1-2016 to 1-2017 0.50% 0.61% 0.56% 3.69% B. County Appropriation Limit Calculation Per Government Code 7901, a county may choose to use the change in population from any one of the following: (1) the change in population within its jurisdiction; (2) the change in population within its jurisdiction, combined with the change in population within all counties having borders that are contiguous to that county; or (3) the change in population within the incorporated portion of the county. Sonoma County typically uses the highest of the three factors in order to provide maximum appropriation flexibility. The FY 2017-18 limit adjustment is thus the combination of the income factor change of 3.69%, and the most favorable population percentage change available. Of the three population change factors, the most favorable percentage was 0.61%, equal to the change in population within Sonoma County s jurisdiction, combined with the change in neighboring counties (Lake, Marin, Mendocino, Napa, and Solano). The income and population factors are combined to provide a single limit adjustment factor, as follows: 1.0369 (Income Factor) x 1.0061 (Population Factor) = 1.0433 (Appropriation Limit Adjustment Factor) Applying the adjustment factor above to the FY 2016-17 fiscal year limit results in the following FY 2017-18 Appropriations Limit calculated in Table 2:

Revision No. 20170501-1 Table 2: FY 2016-17 County Appropriation Limit Calculation Description Amount FY 2016-17 Appropriations Limit (exclusive of Refuse Disposal and $598,831,297 Transit Adjustments) Multiplied by the FY 2017-18 Adjustment Factor 1.0433 FY 2017-18 Base Limit (Prior to Adjustments) $624,760,692 Less: Reduction of Tax Support for Refuse Disposal $(647,046) Plus: Limit increase per the Agreement for Transit Services between the County and local municipalities for FY 17-18 (Board Action 5/9/17 item #6). $4,357,564 FY 2017-18 Appropriations Limit $628,471,210 C. Appropriation Limit Adjustments As noted in Table 2, the first adjustment decreasing the FY 2016-17 limit is due to the reduction of tax support for refuse disposal operations. The Constitution and enabling state legislation requires that if tax support of a service is reduced, and fees are increased to offset the reduction of tax support, the limit must be decreased by an equivalent amount. Historically, the County provided $647,046 of tax support for refuse disposal, until FY 1987-88, when tax support for refuse disposal was terminated. Because refuse disposal operations are now funded by fees and not tax proceeds, the appropriations limit must be manually adjusted each year to remove the fixed $647,046 amount. The second adjustment cited in Table 2 increases the appropriation limit pursuant to the FY 2017-18 agreement for transit services between the County and cities in Sonoma County, based on the summary of the coordinated claim approved by the Board of Supervisors on May 09, 2017 (Item #6). Refer to Resolution Exhibit B for details. The total appropriation adjustment of $4,357,564 is derived by summing the following amounts in Section III of the transit claim, titled Summary of TDA Fund Activity : Table 3: FY 2017-18 Transit Claim Adjustment Components Adjustments for City Allocations Claimed by the County Amount FY 2017-18 Cities Contributions to Sonoma County Transit $2,235,424 FY 2017-18 Contract Services $1,298,784 FY 2017-18 Cities Contributions to Sonoma County Paratransit $823,356 Total $4,357,564 The limit transfer from the cities allows the County to provide transit services to other jurisdictions without adversely impacting its available appropriation limit for provision of other tax-supported activities. This adjustment is made in accordance with Article XIII-B, Section 3, of the State Constitution. In addition, during the fiscal year a portion of unincorporated county in the Roseland area was annexed into the City of Santa Rosa. This included a transfer of certain services and tax revenue from the County

Revision No. 20170501-1 to the City, and as such will result in a transfer of appropriations limit. This adjustment is not included in this item and will be included in the FY 2018-19 appropriations limits. D. District Appropriations Limit Calculation The appropriation limit calculation for special districts and other governmental entities under the financial/budgetary control of the Board of Supervisors uses the overall county population factor of 0.50%, and the California per capita personal income factor of 3.69% cited in Table 1 of this report. These two factors are combined to provide a single limit adjustment factor in the following manner: 1.0369 (Income Factor) x 1.0050 (Population Factor) = 1.0421 (Appropriation Limit Adjustment Factor) The 1.0421, or 4.21%, factor is then multiplied by the approved FY 2016-17 limits for each district in order to establish their respective FY 2017-18 appropriations limits. The full list of new district limits is included in the resolution for the Board s review. The total combined Proposition 4 appropriation limit capacity for all twelve Board Special Districts is $81.7 million, which is $38.7 million higher than the Special Districts aggregate FY 2017-18 adopted budget revenues of $43.0 million that are subject to the limit. For each of the twelve special districts, revenue appropriations subject to the Gann limit are between 15% and 93% below their respective limits. The annexation of Roseland discussed above will affect the appropriations limit for CSA #41 Roseland Lighting. This change will be reflected in the FY 2018-19 appropriations limits. North Sonoma Coast Fire Protection District Limit Transfer Agreement In FY 2016-17, portions of County Service Area #40 including the Sea Ranch and Annapolis formed an Independent Special District, the North Sonoma Coast Fire Protection District (NSCFPD). While agreements to share property tax were put in place in advance of the formation of the NSCFPD and the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) provided a provisional limit which was subsequently adopted by the NSCFPD Board of Directors, a formal agreement to transfer a mutually agreed upon amount of appropriations limit from County Service Area #40 to the new NSCFPD was not executed at the time. LAFCO set the provisional limit for the District at $2,250,000. While the County do not concur with LAFCO s calculation, which did not factor adjustments to property tax including those associated with the Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund in allocating a total amount, County Service Area #40 has a sufficiently high appropriations limit to allow for the transfer of this amount without harming County Service Area #40 s ability to appropriate revenue. As such, this item authorizes the chair to sign a formal appropriations limit transfer agreement with NSCFPD and adjusts the appropriations limit for County Service Area #40 accordingly. Prior Board Actions: The Board adopts the appropriation limit annually. Strategic Plan Alignment Goal 2: Economic and Environmental Stewardship By adopting appropriation limits the County demonstrates fiscal responsibility and maintains appropriate reserves, in compliance with State law.

May 2017 Dear Fiscal Officer: Subject: Price Factor and Population Information Appropriations Limit The California Revenue and Taxation Code, section 2227, requires the Department of Finance (Finance) to transmit an estimate of the percentage change in population to local governments. Each local jurisdiction must use their percentage change in population factor for January 1, 2017, in conjunction with a change in the cost of living, or price factor, to calculate their appropriations limit for fiscal year 2017-18. Attachment A provides the change in California s per capita personal income and an example for utilizing the price factor and population percentage change factor to calculate the 2017-18 appropriations limit. Attachment B provides the city and unincorporated county population percentage change. Attachment C provides the population percentage change for counties and their summed incorporated areas. The population percentage change data excludes federal and state institutionalized populations and military populations. Population Percent Change for Special Districts Some special districts must establish an annual appropriations limit. The Revenue and Taxation Code, section 2228 provides additional information regarding the appropriations limit. Article XIII B, section 9(C) of the California Constitution exempts certain special districts from the appropriations limit calculation mandate. The Code and the California Constitution can be accessed at the following website: http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes.xhtml. Special districts required by law to calculate their appropriations limit must present the calculation as part of their annual audit. Any questions special districts have on this requirement should be directed to their county, district legal counsel, or the law itself. No state agency reviews the local appropriations limits. Population Certification The population certification program applies only to cities and counties. Revenue and Taxation Code section 11005.6 mandates Finance to automatically certify any population estimate that exceeds the current certified population with the State Controller s Office. Finance will certify the higher estimate to the State Controller by June 1, 2017. Please Note: Prior year s city population estimates may be revised. If you have any questions regarding this data, please contact the Demographic Research Unit at (916) 323-4086. MICHAEL COHEN Director By: AMY M. COSTA Chief Deputy Director Attachment

May 2017 Attachment A A. Price Factor: Article XIII B specifies that local jurisdictions select their cost of living factor to compute their appropriation limit by a vote of their governing body. The cost of living factor provided here is per capita personal income. If the percentage change in per capita personal income is selected, the percentage change to be used in setting the fiscal year 2017-18 appropriation limit is: Per Capita Personal Income Fiscal Year (FY) Percentage change over prior year 2017-18 3.69 B. Following is an example using sample population change and the change in California per capita personal income as growth factors in computing a 2017-18 appropriation limit. 2017-18: Per Capita Cost of Living Change = 3.69 percent Population Change = 0.85 percent Per Capita Cost of Living converted to a ratio: 3.69 + 100 = 1.0369 100 Population converted to a ratio: 0.85 + 100 = 1.0085 100 Calculation of factor for FY 2017-18: 1.0369 x 1.0085 = 1.0457
