CHAPTER _______

An act to amend Section 14536 of the Government Code, relating to transportation.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL’S DIGEST

SB 1312, Steinberg. California Transportation Commission: annual report.

Existing law requires the California Transportation Commission to adopt an annual report for submission to the Legislature containing, among other things, a summary of the commission’s prior-year decisions in allocating transportation capital outlay funds and an identification of timely and relevant transportation issues facing the state. Existing law, for the reports to be submitted between 2001 and 2008, requires a summary and discussion of certain loans and transfers of transportation revenues and the cashflow and project delivery impact of those loans and transfers.

This bill would delete the provisions relating to the loan and transfer summary and discussion that was to be included in the reports submitted between 2001 and 2008.

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

SECTION 1.  

Section 14536 of the Government Code is amended to read:

14536.  

(a) The annual report shall include an explanation and summary of major policies and decisions adopted by the commission during the previously completed state and federal fiscal year, with an explanation of any changes in policy associated with the performance of its duties and responsibilities over the past year.

(b) The annual report may also include a discussion of any significant upcoming transportation issues anticipated to be of concern to the public and the Legislature.
