Summary

(1) Existing law establishes the Office for Citizen Initiative and Voluntary Action within the office of the Governor, and grants it certain powers and duties for the purpose of advocating and encouraging citizen initiative and volunteer action. This bill would repeal the statutes establishing the Office for Citizen Initiative and Voluntary Action within the office of the Governor, and make various conforming changes. (2) Existing law requires the author or sponsor of legislation that creates a new state board, a new state board that is advisory only, or a new category of licensed professionals to prepare a plan that contains certain requirements. Existing law authorizes the chairperson of the appropriate policy committee to direct the Joint Committee on Boards, Commissions, and Consumer Protection to evaluate a plan prepared pursuant to these provisions. Existing law requires these provisions to apply to any state board that is proposed for creation by the Legislature on or after January 1, 1991, or any category of licensed professional that is proposed for creation by the Legislature on or after January 1, 1995. This bill would, instead, require these provisions to apply only to any state board or category of licensed professional proposed for creation by the Legislature. This bill would provide that an author or sponsor of legislation that creates a new state board that is advisory only and whose purpose is to advise on the licensing and regulation of a profession is not required to prepare a plan pursuant to these provisions. This bill would also revise these provisions to authorize the appropriate policy committee of the Legislature to evaluate a plan prepared pursuant to the provisions described above. This bill would also authorize the chairperson of a policy committee to alternatively require that the Joint Sunset Review Committee evaluate and provide recommendations on any plan prepared pursuant to the provisions described above, or any other legislative issue or proposal to create a new state board. This bill would provide that if the appropriate policy committee does not evaluate a plan prepared pursuant to those provisions, the Joint Sunset Review Committee is required to evaluate and provide recommendations on that plan. (3) Existing law establishes the Reciprocity Commission composed of the Lieutenant Governor, the Director of Motor Vehicles, the Director of Transportation, the Controller, and the Commissioner of the California Highway Patrol for the purpose of, among other things, entering into agreements with foreign jurisdictions that provide for the exemption of fees for commercial vehicles if the foreign jurisdictions provide equivalent exemptions to vehicles registered in California. Existing law authorizes the Reciprocity Commission to enter into agreements on behalf of the State of California with the duly authorized representatives of any foreign jurisdiction providing for the registration of vehicles on an apportionment or allocation basis and to enter into, and become, a member of the International Registration Plan Agreement developed by the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators. The bill would instead authorize the Director of Motor Vehicles, or his or her designee, to enter into agreements on behalf of the state with the duly authorized representatives of any foreign jurisdiction. (4) Under existing law, a commercial motor vehicle registered in a foreign jurisdiction, subject to registration in this state, may, as an alternative to registration in this state secure a temporary registration to operate in this state for a period not to exceed 90 days, or a trip permit to operate in this state for a period of 4 consecutive days. This privilege does not extend to a vehicle registered in any jurisdiction with which the State of California does not have vehicle licensing reciprocity, unless the commission extends the privilege, by rule, after a hearing. This bill would delete this prohibition against extending this privilege. (5) Existing law authorizes the state, in administering the International Registration Plan, to collect all appropriate registration and license fees due other jurisdictions. Existing law provides that foreign jurisdictions that are members of the agreement are authorized to collect all appropriate registration and license fees due to the State of California, and remit those fees to this state pursuant to the terms of the agreement. Existing law requires the Director of Motor Vehicles to provide such assistance to the commission as it may require. This bill would delete all references to the "Reciprocity Commission" and instead substitute the Director of Motor Vehicles, or his or her designee, who would administer the terms and conditions of the International Registration Plan and collect all appropriate registration and license fees due other jurisdictions.
