California State University: acquisition or replacement of motor vehicles.

Under existing law, the Department of General Services exercises oversight of the acquisition and replacement of motor vehicles by state agencies. As of July 1, 2012, "state agencies" are defined for these purposes to include each campus of the California State University. This bill would delete the reference to each campus of the California State University from the definition of state agencies under these provisions. Existing law required, until July 1, 2012, the Trustees of the California State University to report to the Legislature on their motor vehicle procurement, to include specified information, on or before June 30 of each year. This bill would require the trustees to make an interim report to the Governor and the Legislature on January 1, 2014, and a final report on January 1, 2015, on their motor vehicle procurement, as provided. The bill would also require the trustees, to the greatest extent feasible, to purchase vehicles using statewide commodity contracts. This bill would repeal these provisions on July 1, 2015. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
