	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 2074, Runner.  Fairs:  report.
   Existing law requires every county or district agricultural
association that conducts a fair for which any apportionment is
sought to file a detailed statement of its operations in the previous
calendar year with the Department of Food and Agriculture on or
before the 20th day of January in each year.  Existing law separately
requires every citrus fruit fair eligible to receive an
apportionment to file a similar statement on the same schedule.
   This bill would require  instead that every fair within the
network of California fairs file a detailed statement on  its
operations in the preceding fiscal year, to be filed within 90 days
of the end of that fiscal year.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:


  SECTION 1.  Section 4505 of the Food and Agricultural Code is
amended to read:
   4505.  Every fair within the network of California fairs that
conducts a fair for which any apportionment is sought shall file a
detailed statement of its operations in the previous  fiscal year
with the department within 90 days of the end of that fiscal year.
The content and form of the statement shall be prescribed by the
department.
  SEC. 2.  Section 4704 of the Food and Agricultural Code is
repealed.
