Government Code section 65590 and Public Resources Code section 30414 were amended in 1982 following legislative passage of Senate Bill 583, which affected these two sections only. (See Exhibit #1h) This bill was introduced by Senator Henry J. Mello on March 16, 1981. (See Exhibit #1a)
Senate Bill 583 was assigned to the Senate Committee on Natural Resources and Wildlife and the Assembly Committee on Energy and Natural Resources where policy issues raised by the bill were considered. (See Exhibits #3 and #7) The fiscal ramifications of the bill were considered by the Senate Committee on Finance and the Assembly Committee on Ways and Means. (See Exhibits #2 and #8) Six amendments were made to Senate Bill 583. (See Exhibits #1b through #1f) Subsequent to legislative approval, Governor Edmund G. Brown, Jr., signed Senate Bill 583 on September 21, 1982, and it was recorded by the Secretary of State on September 22, 1982 as Chapter 1246 of the Statutes of 1982. (See Exhibits #1g and #2)
In his letter to Governor Brown, Senator Mello described Senate Bill 583 as last amended as follows:
There are two major provisions of the bill. The first clarifies my SB 626 (1981) which gave jurisdiction for low and moderate income housing in the coastal zone to local governments. SB 583 states that mobilehome park tenants of low and moderate incomes are covered under the replacement protection guarantees SB 626 gives to similar occupants of conventional housing. SB 583 also provides that the one-for-one replacement housing policy of SB 626 specifically applies where a mobilehome park is rezoned for visitor-serving timeshare use.
