CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2013–2014 REGULAR SESSION

Assembly Bill
No. 1774


Introduced by Assembly Member Waldron

February 18, 2014


An act to amend Section 65401 of the Government Code, relating to housing public works.


LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 1774, as amended, Waldron. General plan: proposed public works.
The Planning and Zoning Law requires a city, county, or city and county to adopt a comprehensive general plan that addresses a number of elements. If a general plan has been adopted, each county or city officer, department, board, or commission, as specified, is required to submit a list of proposed public works for the ensuing fiscal year. The agency receiving the list of proposed public works is required to prepare, as specified, a coordinated program of proposed public works for the ensuing fiscal year.
This bill would authorize the submission of the list of proposed public works projects one month prior to the start of the fiscal year and would authorize, instead of require, the agency receiving the list to prepare a coordinated program of proposed public works for the ensuing fiscal year.

This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.

Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: NO   Local Program: NO  

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:


SECTION 1.

 Section 65401 of the Government Code is amended to read:

65401.
 If a general plan or part thereof has been adopted, within the time fixed by the legislative body, each county or city officer, department, board, or commission, and each governmental body, commission, or board, including the governing body of a special district or school district, whose jurisdiction lies wholly or partially within the county or city, whose functions include recommending, preparing plans for, or constructing major public works, shall submit to the official agency, as designated by the respective county board of supervisors or city council, a list of the proposed public works recommended for planning, initiation, or construction during the ensuing fiscal year. This list may be submitted one month prior to the start of the fiscal year. The official agency receiving the list of proposed public works shall list and classify all of these recommendations and shall may prepare a coordinated program of proposed public works for the ensuing fiscal year. The coordinated program shall may be submitted to the county or city planning agency for review and report to the official agency as to conformity with the adopted general plan or part thereof.
