BILL NUMBER: AB 500 AMENDED BILL TEXT AMENDED IN ASSEMBLY JULY 15, 1999 AMENDED IN ASSEMBLY APRIL 27, 1999 INTRODUCED BY Assembly Members Corbett,Alquist, Calderon, Cardoza, Firebaugh, Florez, Honda, and KuehlAroner, and Bock FEBRUARY 18, 1999An act to add Article 4 (commencing with Section 13350) to Chapter 3 of Part 3 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code, relating to capital outlay planning.An act to add Section 35655.5 to the Vehicle Code, relating to vehicles. LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST AB 500, as amended, Corbett.Capital outlay planningVehicles: maximum weight limit: I-580 . (1) Existing law authorizes the Department of Transportation to declare and fix a weight limit for a highway under its jurisdiction that is less than the maximum weight limits otherwise authorized under the Vehicle Code, upon determining that the highway will not sustain those maximum weights and, after conducting a public hearing on the issue, determining the maximum weight that the highway will sustain. The department is prohibited from establishing a maximum weight limit that is less than 16,000 pounds. This bill, notwithstanding existing law, would prohibit any person from driving a vehicle on the segment of Interstate Highway Route 580 (I-580) that is located between Grand Avenue in the City of Oakland and the city limits of the City of San Leandro when the weight of the vehicle and load is 9,000 pounds or more. Because a violation of this prohibition would be an infraction under other provisions of existing law, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program by creating a new infraction. (2) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.Existing law requires the Director of Finance to prepare a report projecting the state's potential need for the financing of major capital outlay projects and infrastructure projects from 1991-2000, inclusive, and requires this report to be updated annually. This bill would require each state agency to prepare and submit annually to the Department of Finance a list of the capital outlay needs of the state agency for the next 5 years. This bill would require the list to specify each project with a cost exceeding $250,000 and its location. The bill would require the department to prepare and submit annually to the Legislature a multiyear capital outlay master plan that is a compilation of the multiyear capital outlay lists submitted by state agencies to the department and that includes for each state agency a description of each capital outlay project.Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes. State-mandated local program:noyes . THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:SECTION 1. Article 4 (commencing with SectionSECTION 1. Section 35655.5 is added to the Vehicle Code, to read: 35655.5. Notwithstanding this article or any other provision of law, no person may drive a vehicle on the segment of Interstate Highway Route 580 (I-580) that is located between Grand Avenue in the City of Oakland and the city limits of the City of San Leandro when the weight of the vehicle and load is 9,000 pounds or more. SEC. 2. No reimbursement is required by this act pursuant to Section 6 of Article XIIIB of the California Constitution because the only costs that may be incurred by a local agency or school district will be incurred because this act creates a new crime or infraction, eliminates a crime or infraction, or changes the penalty for a crime or infraction, within the meaning of Section 17556 of the Government Code, or changes the definition of a crime within the meaning of Section 6 of Article XIIIB of the California Constitution.13350) is added to Chapter 3 of Part 3 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code, to read: Article 4. Capital Outlay Planning 13350. (a) Each state agency shall prepare and submit annually to the department a list of the capital outlay needs of the state agency for the next five years. The list shall specify each project and its location, but may include only those projects with a cost exceeding two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000). Agencies that do not have capital outlay needs for the next five years are exempt from this requirement. (b) The following agencies may use project categories rather than specifying individual projects in the list required by subdivision (a): (1) The State Coastal Conservancy. (2) The California Tahoe Conservancy. (3) The Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy. (4) The Wildlife Conservation Board. (c) The Department of Transportation may submit its annual State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) adopted by the California Transportation Commission in order to meet the requirements of this section. (d) The Department of Corrections may submit its annual master plan as required by Section 7000 of the Penal Code to meet the requirements of this section if the Department of Corrections master plan includes the project data included in Section 13352. 13351. The department shall prepare and submit annually to the Legislature a multiyear capital outlay master plan that is a compilation of the multiyear capital outlay lists submitted by state agencies to the department pursuant to Section 13350. The plan shall be submitted to the Legislature as a supplement to the Governor's Budget. The plan shall cover a timespan of at least five years, with completion dates noted and extended past the five-year mark when applicable. 13352. (a) The master plan specified in Section 13351 shall delineate in detail for each state agency a description of each capital outlay project, including the following with respect to each project: (1) General location. (2) Estimated cost. (3) Anticipated funding source or sources. (4) Estimated maintenance and operational costs. (5) Priority with respect to other projects for each year in the first, second, and third year. (6) Projected timeframe for completion. (b) For each state agency, the master plan shall disclose the total amounts for each type of financing source proposed for the capital outlay projects included in the agency's list. (c) The master plan, as described in subdivision (a), shall be updated annually as necessary given evolving circumstances in the planning process of state agencies. (d) The detailed delineation of the master plan required by subdivision (a) and the financing plan required by subdivision (b) may use project categories rather than specifying individual projects for the following agencies: (1) The State Coastal Conservancy. (2) The California Tahoe Conservancy. (3) The Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy. (4) The Wildlife Conservation Board. (e) To the extent that individual projects may not be definable in the fourth and fifth years, project categories may be substituted. (f) The master plan shall explain the methods and identify key assumptions used to derive the cost estimates, schedules, and other required information. The Legislature recognizes that the annual master plan is a flexible, working document subject to the evolutionary change inherent in the planning process. The master plan is designed to reflect project data changes on a year-to-year basis, and the inclusion of a project in the master plan does not guarantee its viability. 13353. The Legislature may review the capital outlay master plan for purposes of determining capital outlay policies for the state.
