CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2021–2022 REGULAR SESSION

Assembly Bill

No. 2118

Introduced by Assembly Member Mullin

February 14, 2022

An act to amend Section 50020 of the Government Code, relating to local government.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 2118, as introduced, Mullin. Cities and counties.

Existing law prescribes the powers and duties that are common to cities and counties, including the powers and duties of legislative bodies. Under existing law, if a statute requires a local agency to take legislative action by resolution, and the local agency’s charter requires it to take legislative action by ordinance, action by ordinance is compliance with the statute for all purposes.

This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to those provisions.

Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: NO Local Program: NO

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

SECTION 1.

Section 50020 of the Government Code is amended to read:

50020.

~~When~~ If a statute requires a local agency to take legislative action by resolution and the local agency is required by its charter to take legislative action by ordinance, action by ordinance is compliance with the statute for all purposes.
