ISSUE
Central San is required to establish its annual appropriations limit in accordance with Article XI I I B of the
California Constitution, which imposes a limit (known as the "GANN Limit") on the rate of growth in
governmental spending of tax revenues.
BACKGROUND
Tax revenue to Central San comes from ad valorem property taxes. Such taxes are expected to
comprise about 12.6% of Centrals San's total revenues for FY 2022-23 ($21.0 million of $167.2 million in
budgeted revenues, excluding debt proceeds and use of reserves). Central San does not set the level of
ad valorem property taxes the agency receives, but instead receives from Contra Costa County a
calculated share of the property taxes assessed for properties within the service territory. The GANN
Limit has, in past years, been about ten times higher than the amount of ad valorem property tax received
from the County.
Each year, the GANN Limit is increased annually by a factor comprised of the change in population combined
with either the change in California per capita personal income or the change in the local assessment roll due to
