Summary

Existing law, the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000, provides the exclusive authority and procedure for the initiation, conduct, and completion of changes of organization and reorganization for cities and districts, except as specified. The act continues in existence in each county a local agency formation commission (LAFCO) that consists of members appointed, as specified, and that oversees those changes of organization and reorganization. The act authorizes a LAFCO to, among other things, review and approve with or without amendment, wholly, partially, or conditionally, or disapprove proposals for changes of organization or reorganization, including incorporation of a city or formation of a district, as specified. Existing law requires each county to have a board of supervisors and provides for the organization and powers of the board of supervisors. This bill would require the County of Los Angeles, no later than March 1, 2025, to submit to the Legislature a report that includes specified information, including, among other things, for East Los Angeles, the feasibility of forming a municipal advisory council, a local town council, or a coordinating council that could represent the comprehensive interests of the entire East Los Angeles community. If the county has produced a report that contains substantially similar information to the information required by the above-described provisions, this bill would authorize the county to submit that report in lieu of completing a separate report. The bill would make these provisions inoperative upon the completion and submission of the report to the Legislature and would repeal these provisions as of January 1, 2029. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the County of Los Angeles. 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.
