Summary

Existing law prescribes the uses for moneys in the fund, including specified program and administrative expenditures, and limits administrative expenditures to 5% of the initial appropriation plus 5% of all moneys recaptured. Existing law establishes the California Seismic Safety Capital Access Loan Program, which is similar to the California Americans with Disabilities Act Small Business Capital Access Loan Program, to assist residential property owners with and small business owners seismically retrofitting residences and small businesses, as specified. Existing law establishes the California Seismic Safety Capital Access Loan Program Fund, a continuously appropriated fund to be used for the purposes of the program, as specified.

The bill would require the regulations adopted for the California Americans with Disabilities Act Small Business Capital Access Loan Program to increase the 5-year term and recapture limits described above to 15 years. By transferring money into a continuously appropriated fund, expanding the purposes for which moneys in a continuously appropriated fund may be used, and increasing the amount of moneys that may be expended from a continuously appropriated fund, this bill would make an appropriation.
