Inverness Public Utility District Appropriations Limit Gann Override, Measure G (November 2015)
An appropriations limit gann override was on the ballot for Inverness Public Utility District voters in Marin County, California, on November 3, 2015. It was approved.
Measure G authorized the district to increase its appropriations limit for two years through a gann override—a measure to increase the spending authority of a local jurisdiction— in order to allow the district to spend all of its collected revenue.[1]
A gann limit, or appropriations limit, is a restriction on how much a local governmental agency is allowed to spend in a year. The gann limits for local governments in California were originally set by Proposition 4 in 1979. The result of this limit is that sometimes a government will collect more revenue than it can legally spend, forcing it to return some of the money. Article XIIIB of the California Constitution gives voters in a governmental jurisdiction the authority to override a local gann limit, allowing the jurisdiction to spend all of its revenue.
