BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The appropriation limit is the amount the Napa County Community Facilities District 2012-1 for the MST Recycled Water Pipeline Project could spend that is funded by certain taxes and state subventions, while the revenue subject to the limit is the amount of revenue from those sources the District anticipates actually receiving in the fiscal year. The included correspondence provides information on how the appropriation limit was calculated in accordance with Article XIIIB of the California Constitution.
On October 23, 2012, the Board of Supervisors approved the formation of the Community Facilities District (CFD). Article XIIIB of the California Constitution requires the Board of Supervisors, when acting as the governing board of a special district, to annually establish appropriation limits for that special district.
The Auditor-Controller is requesting approval of a resolution establishing the appropriation limit for Fiscal Year 2021-2022 at $850,475,048 with estimated revenue subject to the limit of $603,000, using the non-residential growth factor in performing the calculation.
