INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Chesbro

                        FEBRUARY 20, 2014

   An act to amend Section 6217 of the Public Resources Code,
relating to state lands.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 2035, as introduced, Chesbro. State lands: revenue.
   Existing law requires the State Lands Commission to deposit in the
General Fund all revenue, money, and remittances received by the
commission, with the exception of revenue derived from state school
lands and other specified sources. Existing law requires that the
moneys be made available each fiscal year for specified purposes,
including refunds, commission expenses, and payments to cities and
counties.
   This bill would require that an unspecified amount of those moneys
be made available for deposit into the State Coastal Conservancy
Fund, out of an appropriation for that purpose, for expenditure for
the preservation and protection of coastal lands.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.
