Summary

The California Constitution provides that the University of California constitutes a public trust administered by the Regents of the University of California, a corporation in the form of a board, with full powers of organization and government, subject to legislative control only for specified purposes. The University of California system includes 10 campuses, which are located in Berkeley, Davis, Irvine, Los Angeles, Merced, Riverside, San Diego, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, and Santa Cruz. Existing law requires, on or before April 1 of each year, the University of California to provide progress reports and specified information consistent with the published mission and vision of the University of California, Riverside, School of Medicine to the relevant policy and fiscal committees of the Legislature pertaining to funding, recruitment, hiring, and outcomes for the University of California, Riverside, School of Medicine. This bill would appropriate to the regents $80,000,000 from the General Fund for the 2020–21 fiscal year to be expended solely on the construction of a new University of California, Riverside School of Medicine facility, and an additional $25,000,000 from the General Fund each fiscal year, commencing with the 2020–21 fiscal year, to be expended solely on ongoing operational support for the expansion of the University of California, Riverside School of Medicine. As a condition of receiving the additional annual $25,000,000 appropriation, the bill would require the University of California to comply with the annual reporting requirement under existing law pertaining to funding, recruitment, hiring, and outcomes for the University of California, Riverside, School of Medicine.
