FOR A SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS Bulldog Investors, LLC ("Bulldog Investors") is sending this proxy statement and the enclosed GREEN proxy card to shareholders of Alliance California Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") of record as of August 13, 2018. We are soliciting a proxy to vote your shares at a special meeting of shareholders (the "Meeting") scheduled for October 11, 2018. Please refer to the Fund's proxy soliciting material for detailed additional information concerning the Meeting and the proposal to be considered by shareholders. This proxy statement and the enclosed GREEN proxy card are first being sent to shareholders on or about September --, 2018. 				INTRODUCTION The Board of Directors has determined to present a proposal to approve a new investment advisory agreement with AllianceBernstein L.P. (the "Proposal"). We are soliciting a proxy to vote your shares AGAINST the Proposal. 			REASONS FOR THE SOLICITATION Until recently, the Fund's common shares generally traded at a discount in excess of 10% to their net asset value ("NAV"). We believe that if shareholders vote against the Proposal that would send a message to the Board that shareholders want an opportunity to realize a price at or close to NAV for their shares, e.g., by converting the Fund to an open-end Fund. 			 HOW PROXIES WILL BE VOTED If you complete and return a GREEN proxy card to us, and unless you direct otherwise, your shares will be voted AGAINST the Proposal. In addition, you will be granting the proxy holders discretionary authority to vote on any other matters that may come before the Meeting. Lastly,if you complete and return a GREEN proxy card to us, and unless you direct otherwise, we may determine not to present your proxy card at the Meeting if we believe that the Proposal is less likely to be approved if your shares are not represented at the Meeting (by making it more difficult to reach a quorum) than if they are represented at the Meeting. 			 VOTING REQUIREMENTS A quorum for the Meeting will exist if the holders of a majority of the Fund's shares entitled to vote at the Meeting are present or represented by proxy. As of August 13, 2018, the Fund had 8,554,668 shares of common stock, 1,195 shares of Auction Preferred Shares, Series M and Series T, and 1,605 shares of Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares outstanding. Each share is entitled to one vote. The approval of the Proposal requires the affirmative vote by holders of the lesser of (a) 67% or more of the shares of the Fund represented at a meeting at which more than 50% of the outstanding shares are present in person or by proxy or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding shares. An abstention will be considered present for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum but will have the effect of a vote against the Proposal. 			 REVOCATION OF PROXIES You may revoke your proxy by: (i) delivering a written revocation to us; (ii) executing and delivering a later dated proxy to the inspector of election; or (iii) voting in person at the Meeting. Attendance at the Meeting will not by itself revoke a proxy. There is no limit on the number of times you may revoke your proxy and only your most recent proxy will be counted. 			 THE SOLICITATION We intend to solicit proxies by mail, and may utilize other means, e.g., telephone or the internet. Our proxy materials are available at: www.bulldoginvestorsproxymaterials.com. Persons affiliated with or employed by us may assist us in the solicitation of proxies. Banks, brokerage houses and other securities intermediaries will be requested to forward this proxy statement and the enclosed GREEN proxy card to the beneficial owners for whom they hold shares of record. We will reimburse these organizations for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. Initially, we and our clients will bear the expenses related to this proxy solicitation. Because we believe that all shareholders will benefit from this solicitation, we intend to seek, subject to any applicable regulatory requirements, reimbursement of our expenses from the Fund. Shareholders will not be asked to vote on the reimbursement of these expenses, which we estimate will be $50,000.
