SENATE BILL 892 (GREENE – 1983)

CHAPTER 921, STATUTES OF 1983, SB 892

Some bill research does not include the Governor's file because at the time we researched the bill, the sitting Governor had not released his chaptered bill file. If the Governor's file is not included with this particular research, please contact our office (1-530-666-1917 or quote@legintent.com) and we will be happy to provide this file at no charge if it is available. Please Note: Governor files did not exist prior to 1943.

Former Government Code section 53077, the precursor to current Government Code section 66006, was added in 1983 by Senate Bill 892, which affected this section only.  (See Exhibit #1e) Senate Bill 892 was introduced by Senators Greene and Roberti on March 3, 1983.  (See Exhibit #1a) 

Senate Bill 892 was heard in the Senate Committee on Housing and Urban Affairs and the Senate Committee on Finance.  (See Exhibits #2, #3, and #4)  In the Assembly, the bill was considered by the Committee on Housing and Urban Development and the Committee on Ways and Means.  (See Exhibits #2, #6, and #8)  Three amendments were made to Senate Bill 892.  (See Exhibits #1b through #1d and #2) Senate Bill 892 was approved by the Legislature on September 7, 1983, signed by the Governor on September 19, 1983, and recorded on September 20, 1983 as Chapter 921 of the Statutes of 1983.  (See Exhibits #1e and #2) 

The Senate Republican Caucus analysis of Senate Bill 892 as last amended summarized the bill as follows:
 
This bill requires local agencies to deposit and maintain specified development and service fees in a separate capital facilities account fund.  Any interest earned on the fees would also be required to be deposited in the separate account fund.  The bill further provides that monies in such a fund could be spent only for the purpose for which the fee was initially collected.

Assembly Amendments remove provisions regarding service fees and exempt interest earned on imposed fees for park and recreation purposes until January 1, 1985 from the provision that the interest on fees be expended on by for the purpose for which the fee was originally collected.
(See Exhibit #9)
