LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
The bill would also require a state or local agency that maintains an internet website and publishes a public notice to include a reasonably accessible link on its internet website to the statewide internet website, currently capublicnotice.com, where the public notice will appear. By imposing new duties on local government agencies, the bill would create a state-mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
