Summary

(1) Existing law requires the California Alternative Energy and Advanced Transportation Financing Authority to establish a Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) Reserve program to assist local jurisdictions in financing the installation of distributed generation renewable energy sources or energy or water efficiency improvements meeting specified requirements that are permanently affixed on real property through the use of a voluntary contractual assessment. Existing law, until January 1, 2015, appropriates up to $50,000,000 from the Renewable Resource Trust Fund to the authority for the purposes of the PACE Reserve program and authorizes the authority to expend up to $300,000 of that appropriation for initial administrative costs in implementing the PACE Reserve program. This bill would additionally require the authority to administer a Clean Energy Upgrade Program that would be developed by the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission and the authority to reduce the costs to property owners of a loan provided by a financial institution that has a loan program that satisfies the specified requirements. Because this bill would authorize the use of the money appropriated for the PACE Reserve program for the Clean Energy Upgrade Program, this bill would make an appropriation. The bill would require the authority to report annually specified information regarding the program. The bill would increase the amount of the appropriation that may be expended for initial administrative costs to $550,000, thereby making an appropriation. (2) The California Constitution authorizes the Governor to declare a fiscal emergency and to call the Legislature into special session for that purpose. Governor Schwarzenegger issued a proclamation declaring a fiscal emergency, and calling a special session for this purpose, on December 6, 2010. Governor Brown issued a proclamation on January 20, 2011, declaring and reaffirming that a fiscal emergency exists and stating that his proclamation supersedes the earlier proclamation for purposes of that constitutional provision. This bill would state that it addresses the fiscal emergency declared and reaffirmed by the Governor by proclamation issued on January 20, 2011, pursuant to the California Constitution.
