INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT
ON APPLYING AGREED-UPON PROCEDURES

San Luis Obispo, California
We have performed the procedures enumerated below, which were agreed to by the San Luis
Obispo County (County), related to the County’s compliance with the Appropriations Limit
Calculation for the year ended June 30, 2020. The County’s management is responsible for its
compliance with the requirements of Section 1.5 of Article XIII-B of the California Constitution
for the Appropriations Limit Calculation. The sufficiency of these procedures is solely the
responsibility of the County. Consequently, we make no representation regarding the
sufficiency of the procedures described below either for the purpose for which this report has
been requested or for any other purpose.
The procedures and the associated findings are as follows:
1. Obtain the completed Appropriations Limit Calculation and compare the limit and
annual adjustment factors in the calculation to the limit and annual adjustment factors
that were adopted by resolution of the County Board of Supervisors.
Finding: No exceptions were noted as a result of our procedures.
2. Compute current year adjustments based on selected population and inflation options,
using information provided by Department of Finance.
Finding: No exceptions were noted as a result of our procedures.
3. Compare the prior year appropriations limit presented in the Appropriations Limit
Calculation to the prior year appropriations limit adopted by the County Board of
Supervisors for the prior year.
Finding: No exceptions were noted as a result of our procedures.
4. Add results of step two (2) to the prior year Appropriations Limit, and compare the resulting
amount to current year approved limit.
Finding: No exceptions were noted as a result of our procedures.
.
This agreed-upon procedures engagement was conducted in accordance with attestation
standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. We were not
engaged to and did not conduct an examination or review, the objective of which would be the
expression of an opinion or conclusion, respectively, on compliance with specified
requirements. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion or conclusion. Had we
performed additional procedures, other matters might have come to our attention that would
have been reported to you.
No procedures have been performed with respect to the determination of the appropriation limit
for the base year, as defined by Article XIII-B of the California Constitution.
