provisions until March 1, 2015, and January 1, 2016, respectively.


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

  SECTION 1.  Section 179.9 of the Government Code is amended to
read:
   179.9.  This article shall become inoperative on March 1, 2015,
and, as of January 1, 2016, is repealed, unless a later enacted
statute, that becomes operative on or before January 1, 2016, deletes
or extends the dates on which it becomes inoperative and is
repealed.
