INTRODUCED BY   Senator Corbett

                        FEBRUARY 18, 2011

    An act to amend Section 9600.5 of the Unemployment
Insurance Code, relating to employment development.   An
act to amend Section 30513 of the Public Resources Code, relating to
coastal resources. 



	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 825, as amended, Corbett.  Employment Development
Department: training expenditures: report.   Coastal
resources: California Coastal Act: local coastal programs: zoning
requirements.  
   The California Coastal Act of 1976 imposes certain restrictions on
development in the coastal zone of the state and requires each local
government located within the coastal zone to prepare a local
coastal program. The act further requires the local government to
submit to the California Coastal Commission a land use plan,
including zoning ordinances, zoning district maps, and, if required,
other implementing actions.  
   The act authorizes the commission to suggest modifications to
rejected zoning ordinances, zoning district maps, or other
implementing actions. If the local government agrees to adopt those
modifications, they will be deemed approved upon confirmation by the
executive director. The act prohibits the commission from suggesting
modifications in the rejected zoning ordinances if the local
government requests the commission not to suggest modifications.
 
   This bill would delete the restriction on the commission regarding
suggested modifications.  
   Existing law requires the Employment Development Department to
administer various job training and placement programs and services
for eligible persons, as provided, and requires that the department,
among other things, develop a statewide plan and area plans to
coordinate all programs it administers, as specified. Existing law
also requires the Employment Development Department to report
annually to the Governor, the Legislature, and the California
Workforce Investment Board, no later than November 30, regarding the
training expenditures made by local workforce investment boards in
the prior fiscal year, as provided.  
   This bill would require the Employment Development Department,
instead of reporting to the Legislature, to report annually to the
relevant fiscal committees of the Legislature. 
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.
