	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1757, Waldron. North County Transit District.
   Existing law provides for creation of the North County Transit
District, with various powers and duties relative to the planning and
operation of a transit system in north San Diego County. Existing
law provides for the district to be governed by a board of directors,
and requires compensation in the amount of $75 per day, not to
exceed $300 per month, be paid to each board member or alternate for
attending board meetings and authorizes similar, additional amounts
for attending meetings of other public agencies.
   This bill would instead provide for payments of $150 per meeting,
not to exceed $750 per month, for board members, or alternates when
acting on behalf of board members, for attending board meetings or
meetings of other public agencies. The bill would thereby impose 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 no reimbursement is required by this
act for a specified reason.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 125107 of the Public Utilities Code is amended
to read:
   125107.  Each member of the board, including an alternate member
appointed pursuant to Section 125051 when acting on behalf of the
member, shall be paid one hundred fifty dollars ($150) for each
meeting of the board or other meeting of a governmental entity the
member or alternate attends, but not to exceed seven hundred fifty
dollars ($750) in any month, and the necessary and reasonable
expenses in performing the duties as a board member.
  SEC. 2.  Section 125220 of the Public Utilities Code is amended to
read:
   125220.  The district may make contracts and enter into
stipulations of any nature whatsoever, either in connection with
eminent domain proceedings or otherwise, including, but not limited
to, contracts and stipulations to indemnify and save harmless, to
employ labor, to contract with a private patrol operator licensed
pursuant to Article 4 (commencing with Section 7583) of Chapter 11.5
of Division 3 of the Business and Professions Code, the county
sheriff and municipal police departments within the areas described
in Section 125052, and other transit development boards for security,
police, and related services, and to do all acts necessary and
convenient for the full exercise of the powers granted in this
division.
  SEC. 3.  No reimbursement is required by this act pursuant to
Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California Constitution because
the only costs that may be incurred by a local agency or school
district are the result of a program for which legislative authority
was requested by that local agency or school district, within the
meaning of Section 17556 of the Government Code and Section 6 of
Article XIII B of the California Constitution.
