About This Site

Who developed the California Grants Portal and why? 
Grants.ca.gov is managed and hosted by the California State Library. The Grant Information Act of 2018 (Stats. 2018, Ch. 318) required the State Library to build one website by July 1, 2020, “that provides a centralized location … to find state grant opportunities.” AB132 (section 8334.1) expanded the Grants Portal mission, requiring state grantmakers to submit post award data for all grants closing on or after July 1, 2022.
Where does the grant opportunity information on grants.ca.gov come from? 
State grantmaking agencies input and update their information into prescribed data fields to make all state grant opportunities searchable on grants.ca.gov. The Grant Information Act requires state agencies to provide summaries of each of their grant or loan opportunities, including, among other items, information about how to apply and links that grantseekers can follow for more details. Starting July 2022, grantmaking agencies must also submit data on each awardee.
How did the State Library determine which features to prioritize and build? 
Our team first surveyed and met with grantseekers and state grantmakers to gather ideas and understand challenges. The information gathered through these conversations helped inform initial website design and functionality.
Later, we published draft wireframes, holding webinars and creating an online survey to collect additional feedback. In June 2020, the beta version of the site went live and our team gathered additional stakeholder feedback that informed the current design, which was launched in July 2020. Contact us to give feedback or suggestions for improvement.

Two key choices lead to this result. First, the administration’s decision to subtract $3.5 billion from available revenues to account for its proposed optional reserve deposit significantly reduces the calculation’s starting point, eliminating a surplus that would have directed funds to Medi-Cal. Second, the administration’s workload budget approach is based on a broad definition of currently authorized services, which also has the effect of reducing the amount of potential funds for Medi-Cal under the measure. Different decisions about these two features of the measure could result in more or less funding for Medi-Cal by hundreds of millions—or even billions—of dollars in the future.

 The 2018-19 Budget: California Competes Proposal
 

Format:
HTML

February 21, 2018 - 
 The Governor proposes extending the California Competes tax credit for five years. We recommend rejecting the administration’s proposal to extend the California Competes tax credit because of problems that are inherent in and unavoidable for these types of programs. If the Legislature chooses to extend California Competes, we offer several suggestions that may alleviate some of its problems.

 Long-term Capacity for Debt Payments Under Proposition 2
 

Format:
HTML

December 21, 2017 - 
 Our recent Fiscal Outlook publication considers potential future requirements under Proposition 2 (2014)—including required rainy day fund deposits and payments toward certain state debts. Some have asked whether Proposition 2 debt funding payments can be used to reduce liabilities of teacher and other public employees' pension plans. As we discuss in this post, there may be little ongoing capacity to make additional commitments from Proposition 2 debt funding payments through the mid-2020s.

The seller does not collect California sales or use tax, and
You use, gift, store, or consume the item in this state.

Example: You live in California and purchase a dining table from a company in North Carolina. The company ships the table from North Carolina to your home for your use and does not charge California sales or use tax. You owe use tax on the purchase.
However, not all purchases require you to pay use tax. For example, you would include purchases of clothing, but not exempt purchases of food products or prescription medicine.
For more information on nontaxable and exempt purchases, you may refer to Publication 61, Sales and Use Taxes: Tax Expenditures, on the California Department of Tax and Fee Administrationâs website at cdtfa.ca.gov.
For information about California use tax, please refer to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administrationâs website at cdtfa.ca.gov and type âFind Information About Use Taxâ in the search bar.
Complete the Use Tax Worksheet or use the Use Tax Lookup Table, to calculate the amount due.
Extensions to File
If you request an extension to file your income tax return, wait until you file your tax return to report your purchases subject to use tax and make your use tax payment.
Interest, Penalties and Fees
Failure to timely report and pay the use tax due may result in the assessment of interest, penalties, and fees.
Application of Payments
For purchases made during taxable years starting on or after January 1, 2015, payments and credits reported on an income tax return will be applied first to the use tax liability, instead of income tax liabilities, penalties, and interest.
Changes in Use Tax Reported
Do not file an Amended Income Tax Return to revise the use tax previously reported. If you have changes to the amount of use tax previously reported on the original return, contact the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration.
For assistance with your use tax questions, go to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administrationâs website at cdtfa.ca.gov or call their Customer Service Center at 800-400-7115 (CRS:711) (for hearing and speech disabilities).
The 2022-23 Budget: The Governor’s Homelessness Plan
Under this prior model, permanent housing was offered only after an individual experiencing homelessness could demonstrate that they were “ready” for housing. The California Interagency Council on Homelessness (Cal ICH) is responsible for monitoring state programs’ compliance with Housing First. While confirmation was pending as of November 2021 for some programs administered by the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES), many other programs—including those administered by the Housing and Community Development Department and Department of Social Services—were found to be complying by Cal ICH. 
Recent Statutory Changes to Cal ICH. In addition to overseeing compliance with the state’s Housing First policy, Cal ICH now directly administers the $3.45 billion in previously authorized flexible state funding provided to local entities. Legislation recently updated the council’s structure and membership in ways that facilitate better coordination across state entities that administer other homelessness‑related programs. Specifically, (1) requiring the Secretary of the California Health and Human Services Agency to serve as a co‑chair with the Secretary of the Business, Consumer Services, and Housing Agency; (2) requiring existing member agencies and departments to be represented by the Director or Secretary rather than by a representative, except for the California Department of Education; and (3) adding the Director of the Departments of Aging, Director of the Departments of Rehabilitation, Director of the Departments of State Hospitals, Director of the Departments of Cal OES the State Public Health Officer, and the executive director of the California Workforce Development Board. How these changes to Cal ICH that are intended to break down silos will work in practice is as yet unknown. 

…But Long‑Term Planning and Funding Remains Necessary. Despite this progress in the state’s engagement and response, the scale of the homelessness crisis in California is significant and continued work and resources will be necessary to address the state’s homelessness challenges. Past budget actions and the Governor’s 2022‑23 budget continue to rely on one‑time and temporary funding. In order to meaningfully address homelessness, the state likely will need to have a continued fiscal role and set a clear, long‑term strategy. To this end, determining the balance of the state‑local relationship—both programmatically and fiscally—over the long‑term will be important.

Bill Text - AB-132 Postsecondary education trailer bill.
Existing law requires each state agency, on or before July 1, 2020, to provide for the acceptance of electronic applications for any grant administered by the state agency, as appropriate. Existing law requires the California State Library to create an annual report to the Legislature relating to the effectiveness of the internet web portal, as specified.This bill would require every state agency to provide the California State Library for every grant administered by the state agency postaward data, as specified.(26) Existing provisions of the Local Agency Public Construction Act govern contracting by
	 community college districts. Existing law authorizes the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges to enter into a contract or other agreement with the governing board of any community college district whereby the district performs services or acts as a fiscal agent on behalf of the California Community Colleges, if the funds for the contract or agreement are in satisfaction of the state obligation to provide funding under Section 8 of Article XVI of the California Constitution, which sets forth a formula for computing the minimum amount of General Fund revenues that the state is required to appropriate for the support of school districts and community college districts for each fiscal year.Existing law, until July 1, 2022, exempts the chancellor from the requirement to advertise for or invite bids for those contracts or other agreements that are no more than $20,000,000. Existing law, until July 1, 2022, also exempts from that requirement the renewal of
	 existing contracts or other agreements that the chancellor has entered into with a governing board, regardless of the amount.This bill would extend those end dates by one year, thereby making the exemptions operative until July 1, 2023.(27) The Budget Act of 2020 made appropriations for the support of state government for the 2020–21 fiscal year.This bill would amend the Budget Act of 2020 by reducing certain appropriations for local assistance to the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges, as provided, and increasing certain appropriations for local assistance to the Student Aid Commission, as specified.(28) This bill would appropriate $511,014,000 from the General Fund to the Board of
	 Governors of the California Community Colleges for allocation to community college districts to address specified purposes, including scheduled maintenance and special repairs of facilities, at community colleges.

November 16, 2022 - Our annual Fiscal Outlook publication gives our office’s independent assessment of the California state budget condition for the upcoming fiscal year and over the longer term. In this report, we anticipate the state will have a $24 billion budget problem to solve in the upcoming fiscal year and operating deficits declining from $17 billion to $8 billion over the multiyear period. The goal of this report is to help the Legislature begin crafting the 2023‑24 budget. Our analysis relies on specific assumptions about the future of the state economy, its revenues, and its expenditures. Consequently, our estimates are not definitive, but rather reflect our best guidance to the Legislature based on our professional assessments as of November 2022.


Update (11/22/22): The original version of this report identified a $25 billion—instead of a $24 billion—budget problem, which reflected an error in the way we accounted for student housing grant program funding.

November 17, 2021 - Our annual Fiscal Outlook publication gives our office’s independent assessment of the California state budget condition for the upcoming fiscal year and over the longer term. In this report, we anticipate the state will have a $31 billion surplus to allocate in the upcoming fiscal year and operating surpluses ranging from $3 billion to $8 billion over the multiyear period. We also find the state will need to allocate about $14 billion to meet the constitutional requirements of the State Appropriation's Limit (SAL) across 2020-21 and 2021-22.

November 18, 2020 - The annual Fiscal Outlook publication gives our office’s independent assessment of the California state budget condition for the upcoming fiscal year and over the longer term. We find the budget situation has improved considerably relative to the June budget act with an estimated $26 billion windfall in 2021-22. However, the state also faces an operating deficit beginning in 2021-22 and throughout the outlook period, growing to $17 billion by 2024-25.
