This bill died with 2021-2022 Regular Session. It reached “In Committee” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Summary

Existing law, the California Emergency Services Act, provides for the mitigation of the effects of emergencies in the state by, among other things, authorizing the Governor to proclaim a state of emergency when specified conditions of disaster or extreme peril to the safety of persons and property exist and by creating the Office of Emergency Services within the office of the Governor. The act makes a violation of its provisions punishable as a misdemeanor. This bill would prohibit a contract entered into pursuant to the act from containing an automatic renewal clause except if, by the terms of that contract, the clause is operative only upon the Legislature's approval, by concurrent resolution or statute, of the renewal of the contract. By expanding the scope of the crime of violating the act, this 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 no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
