SUBJECT: Status of Pending Legislation: 1995 Summary
of Legislative Activities
BACKGROUND
During the 1995 Legislative session, the City Council formally adopted
positions on 74 pieces of proposed legislation. Staff continuously monitored
the progress of the measures that had the potential to impact cities statewide
and/or the San Diego region. On behalf of the City, the Mayor and staff
lobbied State representatives with letters and phone calls throughout the
legislative session. . Additionally, Bob Wilson remains active in his lobbying
functions on behalf of the City of Poway.
The last day for the Assembly and Senate to pass bills during the 1995 session
was September 16, 1995. At that time, the Legislature adjourned into its
final recess. Governor Wilson had until October 15, 1995 to sign or veto bills
passed by the legislature.
FINDINGS
Provided in Exhibit A is a summary of the 74 positions taken by the City
during the 1995 Legislative session. The summary indicates that approximately
23 percent of the State Legislature's actions were in agreement with positions
taken by the City during the 1995 Legislative session. Of the 74 Council
positions, 17 were successful, 8 were contrary to the Legislature's actions,
and no action was taken on 49 of the measures during the current session.
During the 1994 Legislative session, the League of California Cities
Bulletins, Citylink, City Lobbyist Bob Wilson, and the San Diego Legislative
Coalition continued to be the City's primary resource for obtaining
information about State legislative issues. Staff has found that Citylink
continues to be an invaluable tool for monitoring State and Federal

legislation, retrieving complete bill text and committee analyses, as well as
for communicating directly with the League of California Cities and all
Citylink subscribers.
Legislation of significance for the City of Poway included issues in housing,
unfunded mandates, local control for land use, municipal investments, and
telecommunications. Housing Reform issues included passage of AB 1715, which
was authored by Assemblyman Jan Goldsmith. This measure calls for the San
Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) to oversee a pilot program which
allows the cities and County to self-certify that they have met Housing
Element performance standards and fair share requirements. This enables the
cities and County to bypass a Housing Element review by the State Department
of Housing and Community Development (HCD), which often is a long and
difficult process.
Of additional note is that Governor Wilson signed into law a measure favorably
affecting the City of Poway--SB 602. Assemblywoman Cathie Wright authored
SB 602, which partly restores relinquished taxes from fewer automobile sales.
This revenue loss is due to a shift in consumer preferences to leasing cars
rather than purchasing them. In the past, the use tax was pooled for all
cities in the county. The new legislation returns a use tax on leased
- vehicles to the city where the car dealership is located, thus treating auto
sales and auto leasing equitably. For the City of Poway this translates into
approximately $150,000 in new revenue. Citylink summaries for all of the 74
bills are included in Exhibit A.
The State Legislature is scheduled to reconvene into Regular Session on
January 3, 1996. Adjournment of the 1996 session is scheduled for
September 13, 1996.
