SUMMARY: Contains necessary statutory and technical changes to
SB 102
Page 2
implement the Budget Act of 2015 related to General Government.
Specifically, this bill:
1)Provides clarification on the maximum level of funding
available to counties, from the Recidivism Reduction Fund, for
recidivism and crime reduction efforts in each specified
fiscal year.
2)Corrects a technical drafting error in the trailer bill that
exempted the Health Benefits Exchange (HBEX) from the State
Contract Act, only pertaining to public works procurements.
This correction exempts HBEX from all of Part 2 (commencing
with Section 10100) of Division 2 of the Public Contract Code,
reflecting the Legislature's intent to exempt all HBEX
contracts (including its goods and services contracts and its
Information Technology contracts) from the Public Contract
Code requirements.
3)Allows the Department of Human Resources to set Compensation
rates for members of the Occupational safety health appeals
board and the Board of Parole Hearings instead of specifying
the compensation rate for board members in statute.
4)Makes technical clarification to the brace and bolt program
that ensures that the definition for single family and
multi-family structure under the revenue and taxation code and
the insurance code are consistent.
5)Includes a technical change to the PERS reporting language to
include a due date for the first report.
6)Appropriates $400,000 from the State Department of Public
Health Licensing and Certification Program to the Long-Term
SB 102

Care Ombudsman Program.

COMMENTS: This bill contains necessary statutory and technical
