LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 2659, as introduced, Calderon. Salvageable personal property.
Existing law regulates the acquisition and disposition of salvageable personal property for charitable purposes. Existing law requires an organization that is qualified to solicit donations of salvageable personal property, or to sell salvageable personal property obtained by soliciting, as specified, to maintain separate bank accounts and separate books and records for those solicitations or sales and to fully comply with the Supervision of Trustees and Fundraisers for Charitable Purposes Act.
This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes 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.
