(1) The California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989, administered by the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery, generally regulates the disposal, management, and recycling of solid waste. The act establishes stewardship programs for various products, including, among others, carpet. The act includes a product stewardship for carpet program and a successor carpet producer responsibility program, and requires the product stewardship for carpet program to become inoperative upon the completion of certain conditions related to the implementation of the successor carpet producer responsibility program. Existing law, the product stewardship for carpet program, requires a manufacturer of carpets sold in this state, individually or through a carpet stewardship organization, to submit a carpet stewardship plan to the department, which is required to include specified elements, including achieving specified carpet recycling rates and a funding mechanism that provides sufficient funding to carry out the plan. Existing law authorizes the department to administratively impose a civil penalty of $10,000 per day on any person in violation of the program or $25,000 per day if the violation is intentional, knowing, or negligent, as specified. This bill would instead authorize the department to impose administrative, rather than civil, penalties in those amounts, and to impose an administrative penalty of $25,000 per day if the violation is intentional or knowing. Existing law requires a carpet stewardship organization to include nonvoting board members with representation from, among others, a retailer that sells carpet. This bill would instead require the stewardship organization to create a governing board for the stewardship program, with 14 voting members, as specified. Existing law requires a manufacturer of carpets sold in this state, individually or through a carpet stewardship organization, to submit to the department an annual report describing its activities to achieve the purposes of the program, as provided. Existing law authorizes a carpet stewardship organization to award grants and subsidies to incentivize the recycling of carpet materials that have the highest recyclability. This bill would require a carpet stewardship organization to include in its annual report specified information related to the grants and subsidies provided pursuant to the program, as specified. (2) Existing law, the successor carpet producer responsibility program, requires producers of covered products to form and join a single producer responsibility organization (PRO) for the collection and recycling of a covered product. Existing law defines "PRO" to include, among others, the carpet stewardship organization, as defined by the product stewardship for carpet program. Existing law defines a "covered product" as carpet, as defined, and requires the PRO to develop a producer responsibility plan for the collection, transportation, recycling, and the safe and proper management of covered products in the state. This bill would remove the carpet stewardship organization from the definition of PRO. The bill would redefine "carpet" to have the same definition used by the product stewardship for carpet program. Existing law requires an assessment to be added to the price of all covered products sold in the state to fund the program. Existing law also requires the costs of the program to be borne by producers of covered products, as provided. This bill would eliminate the requirement for the costs of the program to be borne by producers of covered products. Existing law requires, no later than January 1, 2029, a person who removes a covered product as part of the installation of a covered product to transport, or contract to transport, all of the removed covered product to an approved collection site, as provided. Under existing law, an approved collection site is a solid waste facility that has agreed to be a collection site for the PRO. This bill would exempt a covered product from this transport requirement if certain conditions are met, including that it is returned to the producer. The bill would recast approved collection sites and would expand them to include certain carpet recycling centers, municipal facilities, and retailers. Existing law requires the governing board of a PRO to include 4 nonvoting members, including, but not limited to, a nonvoting member representing a nonprofit organization established to promote a circular economy and to address environmental issues. Existing law requires the PRO to submit an annual report to the department on or before July 1 of each year, as provided. Existing law requires a producer to publish on its internet website, for each of its covered products, an environmental product declaration that identifies a covered product's components, as provided. This bill would instead require the PRO to create a governing board for the program, with 14 voting members, as specified. The bill would require the annual report to be submitted on or before September 1 of each year, instead of July 1 of each year. The bill would instead require a producer to publish on its internet website, for each of its covered products, the components that constitute more than 1% of the product's weight and any component that is a hazardous chemical, as specified. Existing law requires the PRO to submit to the department an annual report, as specified, and to make the report publicly available on the PRO's internet website. Existing law requires the PRO to provide annual grants to apprenticeship programs for training carpet installers in proper carpet recycling techniques, as provided. This bill would require the PRO to include in its annual report specified information related to the grants and incentive payments provided pursuant to the program, as specified. Existing law requires a producer responsibility plan, among other things, to explain how producers will use standardized stamping or some other means to provide a visual mark on the back of a covered product that is a synthetic material to allow expeditious sorting of the carpet, as provided. This bill would instead require a producer responsibility plan to explain how producers will use standardized stamping or some other means to provide a visual mark on the back of a covered product that provides the name of the producer, the date of manufacture, and a listing of the types of face fibers and backing materials contained in the product. Existing law requires a producer responsibility plan to describe how the PRO will provide free dropoff and convenient collection system for covered products. This bill would require a producer responsibility plan to instead provide the ability for people to drop off postconsumer carpet, free of charge, at collection sites that are open according to a prescribed schedule. Existing law requires a producer responsibility plan to provide annual grants to apprenticeship programs, as provided. This bill would require a producer responsibility plan to additionally allocate $2,000,000 annually to apprenticeship programs operated by labor organizations, as provided. Existing law requires the department to review a submitted producer responsibility plan and to approve or disapprove the producer responsibility plan, as provided. Existing law requires, if the PRO subsequently submits a revised producer responsibility plan and the department disapproves the revised plan, the PRO to revise and resubmit the revised plan consistent with the department's direction. This bill would authorize, rather than require, the PRO to resubmit one additional revised producer responsibility plan if the initial revised plan is disapproved and would delete the requirement for the revised plan to be consistent with the department's direction. Existing law requires a producer responsibility plan in effect as of January 1, 2025, to continue in effect, as provided, until it expires or is revoked, as provided. This bill would repeal this provision. Existing law requires a producer responsibility plan to prioritize expenditure of assessments collected pursuant to the product stewardship for carpet program on activities to carry out the producer responsibility plan, including grants for apprenticeship programs. This bill would instead require a producer responsibility plan to require the expenditure of assessments collected pursuant to the carpet producer responsibility program to be used for activities that support the implementation of the producer responsibility plan, including grants for apprenticeship programs. Existing law authorizes the department to establish, review, and adjust performance standards, which may include, but are not limited to, collection, reduction in disposal, and maximizing recycling. Existing law requires the producer responsibility plan to meet any performance standards published by the department. Existing law requires the department to use sales data to establish the performance standard for recycling carpet, as specified. This bill would eliminate the requirement for the department to use sales data to establish the performance standard for recycling carpet. Existing law authorizes the department to determine the PRO ineligible to act as the PRO if the PRO violates the provisions of the carpet producer responsibility program 3 or more times. This bill would require the above-described violations to be knowing or intentional violations. Existing law requires the department to adopt regulations to implement the program with an effective date no earlier than December 31, 2026. This bill would instead require the department to adopt the regulations no later than January 1, 2029.
The California Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act establishes the California Workforce Development Board to assist the Governor in the development, oversight, and continuous improvement of California's workforce investment system and the alignment of the education and workforce investment systems to the needs of the 21st century economy and workforce. Existing law requires the board to administer, promote, expand, and provide field assistance for high road training partnerships, defined as an initiative or project that models strategies for developing industry-based, worker-focused training partnerships, including labor-management partnerships. Existing law requires high road training partnerships to demonstrate job quality standards and employment practices that include, among other things, adoption of mechanisms to include worker voice and agency in the workplace. This bill would require the board, when awarding grants for a high road training partnership program or any successor program, to provide a scoring preference to an applicant that is either a bona fide labor-management cooperation committee, as defined, or is an entity applying on behalf of, or in cooperation with, a bona fide labor-management cooperation committee, as specified. The bill would require the board to determine the amount of the scoring preference provided and to incorporate that preference into program guidelines and grant solicitations.
(1) Existing law, the Teachers' Retirement Law, establishes the State Teachers' Retirement System (STRS) and creates the Defined Benefit Program of the State Teachers' Retirement Plan, which provides a defined benefit to members of the program, based on final compensation, creditable service, and age at retirement, subject to certain variations. STRS is administered by the Teachers' Retirement Board. Existing law creates the Teachers' Retirement Fund, which is continuously appropriated for specified purposes, into which certain moneys are deposited, including employee contributions. Existing law requires employers and employees to make contributions to the system based on the member's creditable compensation. Existing law defines terms for the purposes of STRS. Existing law defines "retired member activities" to mean one or more of specified identified activities within the California public school system and performed by a member retired for service under STRS, as prescribed. This bill, commencing July 1, 2027, would redefine "retired member activities" to mean all service performed within the California public school system by a member retired for service under STRS when the member is employed in specified positions, including as an employee or independent contractor. (2) Existing law defines "sick leave days," "basic sick leave day," and "excess sick leave days" for purposes of STRS. For specified standards concerning service credit that are expressed only in terms of hours, existing law requires the number of hours to be divided by 6 to determine the number of sick days. This bill would delete the above provision on calculating the number of hours. The bill would instead provide that, when determining the number of days, including for those identified standards, one day shall be equivalent to the number of hours of creditable service performed in a day in that position on a full-time basis, but no less than 6 hours. (3) Existing law requires the retirement board and employees of STRS to discharge their duties with respect to the system and the plan solely in the interest of the members and beneficiaries, as specified. This includes by diversifying the investments of the plan so as to minimize the risk of large losses unless under the circumstances it is clearly prudent not to do so. This bill would revise that provision to instead require diversifying the investments of the plan so as to minimize the risk of loss and to maximize the rate of return unless under the circumstances it is clearly not prudent to do so. (4) Existing law requires employers to make available criteria for membership, including optional membership, in a timely manner to all persons employed to perform creditable service subject to coverage by the Defined Benefit Program and to inform part-time and substitute employees, within 30 days of the date of hire, or by March 1, 1995, whichever is later, that they may elect membership in the plan's Defined Benefit Program at any time while employed. This bill would shorten the above-described timeframe for notifying those employees to within 10 working days of the date of hire. (5) Existing law establishes the circumstances in which a member who is eligible and applies for a disability allowance or retirement may apply to receive a service retirement allowance pending the determination of their application for disability. Under those provisions, a member who applies for service retirement in these circumstances does not receive service credit for each day of accumulated or unused leave of absence for illness or injury or for education, as specified. This bill would also provide that a member who applies for retirement under those provisions shall not receive an additional 2 years of service credit granted in specified circumstances. Existing law requires the retirement board to determine a date based on when the system has the capacity to implement specified changes to the above provisions. Existing law further requires the board to post that date on its website no later than January 1, 2026. This bill would delete the above-described language. (6) Existing law provides that a service retirement allowance becomes effective upon any date designated by the member, provided all of specified conditions are met. This includes a requirement that the member file an application for service retirement on a form provided by STRS, executed no earlier than 6 months before the effective date of the member's retirement allowance. This bill would also require the application for service retirement allowance to be received by STRS within 30 days after the date of the member's signature and, if applicable, the spouse's or registered domestic partner's signature. Existing law permits a member who files an application for service retirement to change or cancel their retirement application if certain conditions are met. Existing law requires that the form provided by STRS be received by the system no later than 30 days from the date the member's initial benefit payment for the member's most recent retirement under the Defined Benefit Program is paid by the system. This bill would also require that the form be received by STRS within 30 days after the date of the member's signature and, if applicable, the spouse's or registered domestic partner's signature. The bill would additionally authorize a member to elect to change a retirement annuity from the defined Benefit Supplement Program to a lump-sum payment any time after retirement, subject to using a form provided by the system and meeting other specified requirements. Existing law requires the retirement board to determine a date based on when the system has the capacity to implement specified changes to these provisions and to post the date on its website no later than January 1, 2026. This bill would delete the above-described language. (7) Existing law specifies the amount a member is to receive upon retirement for service following reinstatement, which is based on specified factors. Existing law also specifies circumstances in which a member who reinstates and performs other creditable service is entitled to a service retirement allowance. Existing law also specifies the amount a member is entitled to receive upon retirement for service following a prior disability retirement, as prescribed. This bill would require benefits calculated pursuant to the above provisions to be modified by an option if elected pursuant to that law. (8) Existing law authorizes the retirement board to declare an additional earnings credit to be applied to Defined Benefit Supplement accounts for a plan year, subject to certain considerations by the board. Existing law requires the board to specify, for any plan year for which it declares an additional earnings credit, the amount to be added to members' accounts as a percentage increase. Existing law prohibits additional earnings credit from being added to the balance of credits transferred from a member's Defined Benefit Supplement account to the Annuitant Reserve. This bill would delete the above-described provision prohibiting additional earnings credit from being added to the balance of credits transferred. (9) Existing law requires a member's retirement benefit under the Defined Benefit Supplement Program to be an amount equal to the balance of credits in the member's Defined Benefit Supplement account on the date the retirement benefit becomes payable. Existing law requires the retirement benefit to be a lump-sum payment or an annuity payable in monthly installments, or a combination thereof. This bill would establish specified conditions if a member elects to change their retirement annuity from the Defined Benefit Supplement Program to a lump-sum payment, including providing for termination of payment of the annuity based on the balance of credits and making the election irrevocable. (10) Existing law provides that benefits payable to participants or beneficiaries of STRS are subject to limits imposed by specified provisions of federal law and shall not exceed those limitations. This bill, commencing July 1, 2027, for a STRS participant subject to the California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013, would specify those limits for participants whose service is included in federal social security and those whose service is not subject to social security. The bill would make those provisions subject to annual changes in the consumer price index and other conditions. The bill, commencing July 1, 2027, would also redefine various terms applicable to STRS and would make other related changes to those provisions. (11) Existing law, the Public Employees' Retirement Law, creates the Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) , which is administered by the Board of Administration of the Public Employees' Retirement System. PERS provides defined benefits to its members based on their final compensation, credited service, and age at retirement, subject to certain variations. Existing law establishes the Public Employees' Retirement Fund, which is a trust fund that is appropriated continuously for specified purposes, into which certain moneys are deposited, including employee contributions. Existing law authorizes a member of PERS to elect to receive service credit for certain public service outside the system, including time served employed under specified governmental fellowship programs or as a volunteer in the Peace Corps or AmeriCorps, by making specified contributions to the system. This bill would also authorize a member to receive service credit for public service, not to exceed one year, as a fellow with the California Council on Science and Technology, subject to making the required contributions for that service. Existing law, for purposes of PERS benefits, defines "state safety member" in specified provisions to include officers and employees of certain state departments in listed employment classifications, identified by classification code. This bill would revise those definitions to include officers and employees of the California Correctional Health Care Services in listed classifications. Among other changes, the bill would remove obsolete employment classification references and would update classification terms and codes. (12) Existing law, the County Employees Retirement Law of 1937, authorizes counties to establish retirement systems pursuant to its provisions in order to provide pension benefits to county, city, and district employees and their beneficiaries. Existing law sets forth the membership composition for boards of retirement and boards of investment, as specified. Existing law requires specified members of the retirement board to be active members of the association elected by it. This bill would revise the above provisions to require those board members to be elected by those active members. The bill would also redefine "active member" to specify that it refers to a member in county service, as otherwise defined, and would make related changes to other definitions under that law. Existing law, for the County of Los Angeles, establishes certain legal obligations of the retirement system to its members and their beneficiaries. Existing law specifies that, for purposes of payments into or out of the retirement fund for adjustment of errors or omissions, the period of limitation of actions is 3 years. Existing law also establishes a 10-year period of limitation for cases in which payment is erroneous because of the death of the retired member or beneficiary or because of remarriage or due to fraudulent reports of compensation, as specified. This bill would establish similar obligations applicable for counties other than Los Angeles. The bill would specify that in cases in which payment is erroneous because of the death of the retired member or beneficiary or because of the remarriage of the beneficiary, the period of limitation of actions shall be 10 years. The bill would also provide a 10-year limitation period for cases in which payment has been made as a result of fraudulent reports, as specified. The bill would make various other related and conforming changes to these retirement provisions. (13) By increasing the contributions to continuously appropriated retirement funds, the bill would make an appropriation.
Existing law establishes the California Community Colleges, under the administration of the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges, as one of the segments of public postsecondary education in this state. Existing law establishes the Strong Workforce Program to provide funding to career technical education regional consortia made up of community college districts and local educational agencies, as specified. Existing law authorizes a community college district to use the funds apportioned directly to the community college district to provide direct support to students, employers, or both, for paid work-based learning to increase employability and employment, as provided. Existing law requires the chancellor's office to revise, no later than June 30, 2026, policies, regulations, and guidance necessary to provide students, employers, or both, with paid work-based learning opportunities, as provided. This bill would extend the deadline for the chancellor's office to revise the policies, regulations, and guidance described above by one year. The bill would additionally authorize funds apportioned directly to regional consortia to be used to provide direct support to students, employers, or both, for paid work-based learning to increase employability and employment, as specified, and would make conforming changes.
Existing law, the Teachers' Retirement Law, establishes the State Teachers' Retirement System (STRS) and creates the Defined Benefit Program of the State Teachers' Retirement Plan, which provides a defined benefit to members of the program, based on final compensation, credited service, and age at retirement, subject to certain variations. That law requires the Teachers' Retirement Board to administer STRS and requires employers and employees to make contributions to STRS based on the member's creditable compensation. Existing law, among other things, defines "position subject to membership" to mean prescribed positions at various educational institutions, including, among other positions, a position at a county office of education or school district, not including a charter school, where the position requires the holding of a valid credential, license, or certificate authorized by the Commission on Teacher Credentialing or the State Department of Health Care Services, as prescribed. This bill would expand the above-described definition to also include permitholders. The bill would additionally include as a "position subject to membership" a comparable position at a charter school eligible to receive state apportionment that is performing, directing, coordinating, supervising, or administering one or more prescribed functions, as specified. Existing law requires the board to determine the date that specified provisions related to this definition become operative based on when STRS has the capacity to implement those provisions and to post that date on the internet website of STRS no later than July 1, 2027. This bill would delete that requirement and would, instead, make this definition of "position subject to membership" operative on July 1, 2027. Existing law creates the Teachers' Retirement Fund, which is continuously appropriated for specified purposes, into which certain moneys are deposited, including employee contributions. By expanding the category of positions subject to membership under STRS and affecting the contributions to the retirement fund, the bill would make an appropriation.
Existing law requires every state agency to develop and implement a telecommuting plan as part of its telecommuting program in work areas where telecommuting is identified as being both practical and beneficial to the organization. Existing law requires the Department of General Services to establish a unit for purposes of overseeing telecommuting programs that is required to, among other things, develop and update policy, procedures, and guidelines to assist agencies in the planning and implementation of telecommuting programs. Existing law requires the department to establish criteria for evaluating the state's telecommuting program. Existing law defines "telecommuting" for purposes of those provisions. This bill would revise and recast those provisions. The bill would replace the term "telecommuting" with "telework," as defined. The bill would also require the Department of General Services to establish a telework dashboard that displays the cost-effectiveness and efficiency benefits of state telework programs, including documenting annual savings to the state of reduced office space and operating costs. The bill would additionally require each state agency, every 10 years, to evaluate its telework program to ensure that it aligns with the state agency's unique operational needs to carry out its programmatic missions and to help recruit and retain a qualified workforce. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
Existing law establishes a low-income housing tax credit program for which the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (CTCAC) provides procedures and requirements for the allocation, in modified conformity with federal law, of state insurance, personal income, and corporation tax credit amounts to qualified low-income housing projects that have been allocated, or qualify for, a federal low-income housing tax credit, and farmworker housing. Existing law limits the total annual amount of the state low-income housing credit for which a federal low-income housing credit is required to the sum of $70,000,000, as increased by any percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index for the preceding calendar year, any unused credit for the preceding calendar years, and the amount of housing credit ceiling returned in the calendar year. Existing law governing the taxation of insurers, the Personal Income Tax Law, and the Corporation Tax Law provided an allocation of $500,000,000 for the 2020 calendar year and, for calendar years beginning in 2021, also provides for an additional amount that may be allocated, up to $500,000,000, to specified low-income housing projects that are new buildings that are federally subsidized, as specified. Existing law provides that this additional amount is only available for allocation pursuant to an authorization in the annual Budget Act. Existing law requires specified regulatory action by CTCAC aimed at increasing production and containing costs, including a scoring system that maximizes the efficient use of public subsidy and benefit created through the low-income housing tax credit program, as specified. This bill would require CTCAC to consider amending the regulatory scoring system to establish a housing type for farmworker housing projects, as specified in the existing CTCAC regulation. The bill would also require the CTCAC to consider using the same point allocations provided for rural set-aside projects in assigning points to farmworker housing based on the proximity of amenities to an eligible farmworker housing project. Existing federal immigration law authorizes employment of nonimmigrant agricultural workers, known as H-2A workers, if specified requirements are met, including that the employer furnish housing, as provided. Existing law generally prohibits providing state funding to an employer or its agent who employs an H-2A worker for the purposes of funding housing and requires an employer that receives state funding for that purpose to reimburse the state by that amount, as specified. Existing law defines "state funding" for this purpose to exclude the allocation of federal or state low-income housing tax credits. This bill, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2027, would include the allocation of state low-income housing tax credits within the definition of "state funding" and would prohibit providing low-income housing tax credits for projects to provide farmworker housing used to comply with the above-described H2-A housing requirement. This bill would incorporate additional changes to Sections 12206, 17058, and 23610.5 of the Revenue and Taxation Code proposed by Senate Bill 1072 to be operative only if this bill and Senate Bill 1072 are enacted and this bill is enacted last. This bill would include a change in state statute that would result in a taxpayer paying a higher tax within the meaning of Section 3 of Article XIIIA of the California Constitution, and thus would require for passage the approval of 23 of the membership of each house of the Legislature. This bill would take effect immediately as a tax levy.
Existing law establishes, until July 1, 2027, the Displaced Oil and Gas Worker Pilot Program, to be administered by the Employment Development Department (department) , for the purpose of addressing employment dislocations associated with oil, gas, and related industries. That program requires the department, using funds to be appropriated by the Legislature for purposes of the program, to award grants on a competitive basis to qualified applicants, as specified, for specified eligible activities. This bill would extend the program indefinitely by removing the July 1, 2027, repeal date. The bill would require the department to implement and administer the program only to the extent that funding is appropriated by the Legislature, as specified.
The California Constitution grants the retirement board of a public employee retirement system plenary authority and fiduciary responsibility for investment of moneys and administration of the retirement fund and system. These provisions qualify this grant of powers by reserving to the Legislature the authority to prohibit investments if it is in the public interest and the prohibition satisfies standards of fiduciary care and loyalty required of a retirement board. Existing law prohibits the boards of the Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) and the State Teachers' Retirement System (STRS) from making certain new investments or renewing existing investments of public employee retirement funds, including in a thermal coal company, as defined. Existing law provides that a board is not required to take any action regarding those investments unless the board determines in good faith that the action is consistent with the board's fiduciary responsibilities established in the California Constitution. This bill would request the University of California, Berkeley, Labor Center to conduct an independent study to analyze the extent of labor standards protections in California real estate and infrastructure development projects funded through the real asset portfolios of PERS and STRS. The bill would request that the study and a report of its findings be completed and provided to the Legislature and the Department of Finance by January 1, 2028, as specified.
Existing property tax law, pursuant to constitutional authorization, provides for a "welfare exemption" for property used exclusively for religious, hospital, scientific, or charitable purposes and that is owned or operated by certain types of nonprofit entities, if certain qualifying criteria are met. Existing law also provides, until January 1, 2027, that property is within the welfare exemption if that property is owned by a community land trust, as defined, otherwise qualifying for the welfare exemption, and specified conditions are met, including that the property is being or will be developed or rehabilitated as housing, as specified. Existing law, however, makes community land trusts liable for property tax for the years for which the property was exempt from taxation if the property was not developed or rehabilitated, or if the development or rehabilitation is not in the course of construction, by January 1, 2027, for property acquired before January 1, 2022, or within 5 years of the lien date following acquisition of the property, for property acquired on and after January 1, 2022. This bill would extend the operation of these provisions until January 1, 2032. The bill would make various conforming changes, including with respect to the lien dates for which the exemption applies. Existing law requires any bill authorizing a new tax expenditure to contain, among other things, specific goals, purposes, and objectives that the tax expenditure will achieve, detailed performance indicators, and data collection requirements. This bill would state that it is the intent of the Legislature to apply those requirements to the above-described exemption and would set forth specified information relating to those requirements. In that regard, the bill would require the assessor to provide the State Board of Equalization with certain information and would require the assessor to retain that information, as specified. By imposing additional duties on local tax officials, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above. Existing law requires the state to reimburse local agencies annually for certain property tax revenues lost as a result of any exemption or classification of property for purposes of ad valorem property taxation. This bill would provide that, notwithstanding those provisions, no appropriation is made and the state shall not reimburse local agencies for property tax revenues lost by them pursuant to the bill. This bill would take effect immediately as a tax levy.
