Summary

(1) Existing law requires the Secretary of Labor and Workforce Development to convene a biennial economic strategy panel, known as the California Economic Strategy Panel and consisting of specified appointed members, for purposes of providing recommendations regarding a California Economic Development Strategic Plan and to review those recommendations made by the panel in its biennial economic development strategic plan document, as specified. Existing law requires the panel to address various specified matters of concern, including the development of a system of accountability for use in the annual state budget process and in the legislative process to measure the performance of all state policies, programs, and tax expenditures intended to stimulate the economy. Existing law also requires the panel to submit a report of its findings and recommendations to the Legislature no later than one year after its first meeting after January 1, 2005. This bill would, instead, require the California Economic Strategy Panel to prepare and submit a preliminary version of the California Economic Development Strategic Plan to the Governor and the Legislature prior to May 1, 2010, and to prepare a final version of the plan within 5 months of the conclusion of required hearings by the Legislature on the preliminary version of the plan. The bill would require the development of the plan to be funded from private donations. The bill would require the Secretary of Labor and Workforce Development to collaborate with the Secretaries of Business, Transportation and Housing and Food and Agriculture in leading the preparation of the California Economic Development Strategic Plan and would require the panel to assess specified matters in preparing the plan, to consult with other state entities, and to review and include certain materials appropriate to completion of the plan. The bill would require that particular components be included in the plan and would delete a system of accountability for use in the state budget process from required elements for the panel's consideration. The bill would require the panel to review the plan 5 years after its finalization and every 5 years thereafter and to update the plan as the panel determines necessary. The bill would modify the composition of the California Economic Strategy Panel by adding the Secretary of Business, Transportation and Housing, the Secretary of Food and Agriculture, the Director of the Office of Small Business Advocate, and the Executive Director of the California Council on Science and Technology as members of the panel and would require, beginning October 1, 2010, the panel to report biennially to the Legislature on its activities. (2) Existing law creates the California Economic Development Fund, and provides for the deposit of government and private economic development funds into it. Under existing law, these funds, upon appropriation by the Legislature, may be expended by the Secretary of Business, Transportation and Housing for economic development purposes. This bill would authorize the Secretary of Business, Transportation and Housing to accept monetary gifts, which would be deposited in the California Economic Development Fund, for the cost of developing and updating economic and workforce development studies, strategies, and policies. The bill would require the secretary to record each gift and to file a copy of the record with the Business, Transportation and Housing Agency. (3) This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
