          *********** ANALYSIS ADDENDUM - SUSPENSE FILE ***********
             The following information is revised to reflect amendments 
                     adopted by the committee on August 11, 2016






          Bill  
          Summary:  AB 2311 would require a county, upon the next update  
          to its emergency plan, to integrate access and functional needs  
          into the plan by addressing the emergency communications,  
          evacuation, and sheltering requirements of specified populations  
          with special functional and access needs.


          Fiscal  
          Impact:  Unknown, likely minor reimbursable mandate costs for  
          counties to update emergency plans to identify how the access  
          and functional needs population is served.  Actual costs would  
          depend upon a determination by the Commission on State Mandates,

          and the number and amount of individual claims that are deemed  
          reimbursable.  


          Author  
          Amendments:  Limit the requirement to integrate access and  
          functional needs into an emergency plan to counties (rather than  
          all political subdivisions), and only require these items to be  
          incorporated upon the next update of the plan.
