                                                                  Page  1

          Date of Hearing:   April 26, 2011

                           ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE ON JUDICIARY
                                  Mike Feuer, Chair
                 AB 806 (Torres) - As Introduced:  February 17, 2011

                                  PROPOSED CONSENT

           SUBJECT  :  Common Interest Developments: Statutory Reorganization 


           KEY ISSUE  :  Should technical and conforming changes be made to 
          other code sections, so that all cross-references are consistent 
          with the proposed reorganization of the Davis-Stirling Act AS 
          proposed by Assembly bill 805?

           FISCAL EFFECT  :  As currently in print this bill is keyed 
          non-fiscal. 

                                      SYNOPSIS
                                          
          This bill makes technical and conforming changes to other code 
          sections so that all cross-references to the Davis-Stirling 
          Common Interest Development Act are consistent with the 
          comprehensive reorganization and recodification of that Act, as 
          proposed by AB 805.  This bill is therefore contingent upon 
          enactment of AB 805.  Both AB 805 and AB 806 passed unanimously 
          out of the Assembly Housing and Community Development Committee. 
           There is no known opposition to either bill. 

           SUMMARY  :  Makes, as of January 1, 2014, technical and conforming 
          changes to reflect a proposed reorganization and recodification 
          of the Davis-Stirling Common Interest Redevelopment Act.  The 
          operation of this bill, therefore, is contingent upon the 
          enactment and operation of that revision and codification as 
          provided in AB 805 of this session. 
           
          EXISTING LAW  establishes the rules and regulations governing the 
          operation of a CID and the respective rights and duties of an 
          HOA and its members.  (Civil Code Sections 1350-1378.)

           COMMENTS  :  This is bill is a companion measure to AB 805 
          (Torres), which reorganizes and recodifies the Davis-Stirling 
          Common Interest Development Act as recommended by the California 
          Law Revision Commission (CLRC).  For a discussion of those 








                                                                  AB 806
                                                                  Page  2

          changes, see the analysis of AB 805.  This bill will ensure that 
          other code provisions that cross-reference the Davis-Stirling 
          Act will correspond to the new section numbers created by AB 
          805.  

           ARGUMENTS IN SUPPORT  :  According to the author and the CLRC, 
          this bill and its companion measure, AB 805, will bring much 
          needed logical order to the Davis-Stirling Act, making it much 
          easier for board members and practitioners to navigate and 
          clarifying the relative authority of statutory law, by-laws, and 
          different types of governing documents.
