Summary

Existing law, the Alfred E. Alquist Hospital Facilities Seismic Safety Act of 1983, establishes, under the jurisdiction of the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development, a program of seismic safety building standards for certain hospitals constructed on and after March 7, 1973. Existing law provides that, after January 1, 2008, a general acute care hospital building that is determined to be a potential risk of collapse or to pose significant loss of life in the event of seismic activity be used only for nonacute care hospital purposes, except that the office may grant a 5-year extension under prescribed circumstances. Existing law allows the office to grant a hospital that has received extensions under specified provisions an additional extension of up to 7 years for a hospital building that it owns or operates if the hospital meets specified milestones. This bill would authorize a hospital in the Tarzana neighborhood in the City of Los Angeles that has received specified extensions to request an additional extension, as specified, until October 1, 2022, in order to obtain a certificate of occupancy from the office for a replacement building. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the Tarzana neighborhood in the City of Los Angeles.
