LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 64, as introduced, Corbett. Proposition 39: implementation.
The California Clean Energy Jobs Act, an initiative approved by
the voters at the November 6, 2012, statewide general election as
Proposition 39, made changes to corporate income taxes and, except as
specified, provides for the transfer of $550,000,000 annually from
the General Fund to the Clean Energy Job Creation Fund for 5 fiscal
years beginning with the 2013-14 fiscal year. Moneys in the Clean
Energy Job Creation Fund are available, upon appropriation by the
Legislature, for purposes of funding eligible projects that create
jobs in California improving energy efficiency and expanding clean
energy generation. Existing law provides for the allocation of these
funds for eligible projects at public school facilities, university
and college facilities, and other public buildings and facilities, as
well as job training and workforce development, and public-private
partnerships, as specified.
This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to install
clean energy at public schools, universities, and colleges, and at
other public buildings and facilities consistent with the California
Clean Energy Jobs Act.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.
