Scope and Content Note
Bills that deal with the duties, status, and regulations of local governments are generally referred to the Assembly Local
Government Committee. Bill files generally include the analysis of bills prepared by legislative staff and may also contain
correspondence, special reports, newspaper articles, and similar materials. The files tend to include more information after
1979. Because of the broad scope of the committee, bills considered by the committee may be as specific as proposed changes
to a single water district or as wide-ranging as the California Environmental Quality Act (AB2045, 1970). The committee also
reviewed bills that responded specific emergencies in localities; for examples AB1974 (1993-1994) that helped business owners
with losses from the Los Angeles Riots of 1992; SB248 and SB273 (1993-1994) in response to damage caused by the Northridge
Earthquake of 1994; SB863, SB864, and SB866 in response to the Orange County financial crisis. After the passage of the measures
(SB617, 1991-1992 and SB1135, 1993-1994) that resulted in the Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund that required a certain
amount of local property taxes to go towards public schools, local governments supported various measures that would protect
their share of the remaining revenue. The committee reviewed SB244 (2011-2012), which required cities, counties, and local
agency formation commissions (LAFCOs) to plan for disadvantaged communities. Concerning sport stadiums, SB43 (Chapter 330,
Statutes of 2009), established a joint powers agency to develop a proposal to construct, operate and maintain the National
Football League’s San Francisco 49ers stadium in Santa Clara, California using a specified design-build authority.
Separation sheets are included within files where audiovisual records have been removed to cold storage.
