AB 184 California Assembly · 2011-2012 Regular Session

Contractual assessment programs: seismic safety improvements.

Summary
Existing law, the Improvement Act of 1911, authorizes a public agency, as defined, to determine that it would be convenient, advantageous, and in the public interest to designate an area within which public agency officials and individual property owners may enter into voluntary contractual assessments to finance the installation of specified improvements that are permanently fixed to those owners' real property, as specified. This bill would enact the Seismic Safety Finance Act, which would expand these provisions to also authorize contractual assessments to finance the installation of seismic strengthening improvements that are permanently fixed to real property, as specified. The bill would define "public agency," for purposes of financing the installation of seismic strengthening improvements, to mean a city, county, or city and county.
