This bill died with 2017-2018 Regular Session. It reached “Passed Senate” 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This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis.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 imposes various requirements on transit districts relating to the passage of ordinances. This bill would, in addition to any other requirements, require a transit district to publish an ordinance on its Internet Web site, or the otherwise appropriate Internet Web site, within 15 days after the ordinance's passage and in a manner that is accessible and easily navigable. By requiring a local agency to perform an additional duty, 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.
