The attached resolution establishes the Fiscal Year 2026-27 appropriation limit of $1,335,852 and the revenue subject to that limit of $939,304 using the percentage change in the California per capita personal income from the preceding year calculated in the attached memo. The appropriations limit is significantly higher than last year because the voters of the District approved Measure A at a special election held on January 20, 2026, establishing a special tax of $1,560.00 per parcel and increasing the appropriation limit of the District by the proceeds received from the special tax.
