	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 865, Hughes.    Gangs:  CLEAR project.
   Existing law authorizes the City and County of Los Angeles to
establish and operate for 2 years a Community Law Enforcement and
Recovery (CLEAR) Demonstration Project, a multiagency gang
intervention program.  Existing law also provides that the CLEAR
project shall remain operative until no later than 2 years from the
date that the funds are initially appropriated by the Legislature for
the project.  Existing law repeals these provisions on January 1,
2001.
   This bill would extend the repeal date until January 1, 2004.
This bill would provide that implementation of this project would be
contingent upon a Budget Act appropriation.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:


  SECTION 1.  Section 14006 of the Penal Code is amended to read:
   14006.  The CLEAR project shall remain operative until January 1,
2004, and as of that date, this title is repealed, unless a later
enacted statute, that is enacted before January 1, 2004, deletes or
extends that date.  Implementation of this project is contingent upon
a Budget Act appropriation.
