Analysis:
On June 21, 2023, the IRC comprised of Mayor Strickland, Mayor Pro Tem Van Der Mark, and
Councilmember Burns voted to recommend to the City Council the following positions on legislative
issues.
The following is a summary of the items voted upon and positions taken by the IRC.
1. AB 223 (Ward) Change of gender and sex identifier.
This bill provides for specified records to be kept confidential by the courts where minors petition
for a change of gender and sex identifier.
In 2017, SB 179 (Atkins, Ch. 853, Stats. 2017) restructured the processes for individuals to
change their names and genders to conform with their gender identity and to have these changes
reflected on their birth certificates. In addition, a streamlined process was established for
changing one's name and gender and having an updated birth certificate issued as part of a
single petition. Specific guidelines and required procedures were laid out for petitioners.
A number of bills last session further honed these processes and fine-tuned the applicable
provisions, in part in response to issues identified by the Judicial Council of California. Special
procedural rules apply when the petitioner is a minor. In response to concerns about the privacy
and wellbeing of these minor petitioners, this bill requires petitions and associated papers to be
kept confidential by the courts when a minor petitions for a change of gender and sex identifier or
a name change and recognition of the petitioner's gender and sex identifier. The court is required
to limit access to the records to only the minor and specified representatives of the minor,
including the
minor's parents or guardians and any legal representatives.
Status: July 12, 2023- 3rd reading in Senate Judiciary Committee.
IRC voted 3-0 to OPPOSE AB 223.
2. AB 957 (Wilson) Family law: gender identity.
This bill clarifies that a family court, when determining the best interest of the child in a proceeding
to determine custody or visitation for a child, shall consider, as part of the consideration of the
health, safety, and welfare of the child, a parent's affirmation of the child's gender identity.
Under California law, the overarching principle in a court's determination in a parental custody or
visitation case is the best interest of the child. What constitutes the best interest of the child is an
intensely fact-specific determination that requires the court to look at the child's health, safety, and
welfare, the child's relationship with each parent, and other factors that may contribute to the
overall wellbeing of the child. The Legislature has, over the past few decades, added more
specific factors for courts to consider (such as in cases where there have been allegations of
domestic violence) and expressly prohibited courts from considering other factors (such as the
immigration status of a parent) to ensure that the child's best interest remains paramount. The

consideration of a parent's affirmance, or lack thereof, will not be determinative in the court's
custody or visitation order; the bill intends to clarify that gender-affirmance should be considered
as part of the comprehensive determination of the child's best interest.
Status: July 5, 2023- ordered to 3rd reading in Senate Judiciary Committee.
IRC voted 3-0 to OPPOSE AB 957.
3. SB 58 (Wiener) Controlled substances: decriminalization of certain hallucinogenic substances.
This bill makes lawful the possession, preparation, obtaining, transfer, as specified, or
transportation of, specified quantities of psilocybin, psilocyn, dimethyltryptamine (DMT), ibogaine,
and mescaline, for personal use or facilitated or supported use, as defined, by and with persons
21 years of age or older.
Existing law classified controlled substances into five schedules according to their danger and
potential for abuse. Schedule I controlled substances have the greatest restrictions and penalties
including prohibiting the prescribing of a Schedule I controlled substance. The law classifies
several hallucinogenic substances including DMT, ibogaine, mescaline, psilocybin, and psilocin as
Schedule I substances.
Schedule I substances are defined as those controlled substances having no medical utility and
that have a high potential for abuse. There is research, however, that indicates that many of these
substances have therapeutic benefits. Efforts to deprioritize the policing or prosecution of conduct
related to certain hallucinogens and to acknowledge the therapeutic value of hallucinogens have
gained support in recent years. Since 2019, local measures to deprioritize the policing or
prosecution of conduct related to hallucinogens have passed in Oakland, Santa Cruz, Ann Arbor,
Denver, and Washington D.C, among others.
This bill provides that all of the following is lawful for a natural person 21 years of age or older and
is not a violation of state or local law:
a) The possession, preparation, obtaining, or transportation of DMT, ibogaine, psilocybin, and
psilocyn for personal use or for facilitated or supported use.
b) The ingesting of DMT, ibogaine, psilocybin, and psilocyn.
c) The possession, planting, cultivating, harvesting, or processing of plants capable of producing
DMT, ibogaine, psilocybin, or psilocyn, on property owned or controlled by a person, for
personal use or for facilitated or supported use by that person, and possession of any product
produced by those plants including spores or mycelium capable of producing mushrooms or
other material which contain psilocybin or psilocin for that purpose.
d) The assisting of another person, 21 years of age or older, with any of the above acts.
Status: July 11, 2023-referred to Appropriations Committee.
IRC voted 3-0 to OPPOSE SB 58.

File #: 23-559 MEETING DATE: 7/18/2023
4. SB 253 (Wiener) Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act.
This bill would require any partnership, corporation, limited liability company, or other U.S.
business entity with total annual revenues in excess of one billion dollars and that does business
in California to publicly report their annual greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, as specified by the
California Air Resources Board (ARB).
Existing law requires ARB, pursuant to California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 to adopt a
statewide GHG emissions limit equivalent to 1990 levels by 2020, and requires corporations in
California to report specified operating information to the Secretary of State.
This bill establishes the Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act and requires, on or before
January 1, 2025, ARB to develop and adopt regulations to require a reporting entity to annually
disclose to the emissions reporting organization and verify all of the reporting entity's Scope 1, 2,
and 3 emissions.
According to the Senate Appropriations Committee, this bill would result in unknown ongoing
costs, likely in the millions of dollars annually (General Fund) for ARB to implement the provisions
of this bill. These costs would be offset by revenues from an annual filing fee on reporting entities.
Status: July 10, 2023- referred to Appropriations Committee
IRC voted 3-0 to OPPOSE
5. SB 770 (Wiener/McGuire) Health care: unified health care financing
This bill directs the Secretary of the California Health and Human Services Agency to pursue
waiver discussions with the federal government with the objective of a unified health care
financing system that incorporates specific features, including a comprehensive package of
medical, behavioral health, pharmaceutical, dental, and vision benefits, without cost sharing for
essential services and treatments.
This bill requires the Secretary of the California Health and Human Services Agency (CalHHS) to
pursue discussions with the federal government to obtain a waiver to enable creation of a
comprehensive health care system with unified financing (UF). The bill specifies that the health
care system will include comprehensive benefits, including medical, behavioral health, drug,
dental, vision, and long-term care services; no cost sharing for essential services; greater
freedom for patients to choose providers; UF; cost-effectiveness by leveraging purchasing power;
a program to ensure a just transition for individuals whose jobs are disrupted by the creation of a
single payer system; sufficient reserves to guarantee solvency during public health emergencies
and other economic disruptions; and other features.
The bill also requires the Secretary of CaIHSS (Secretary) to establish a Waiver Development
Workgroup (workgroup) to advise the Governor on federal negotiations, and requires the
Secretary to report to the Legislature, no later than June 1, 2024, recommendations regarding the
elements to be included in a formal waiver application, and all legislative actions necessary to
proceed with the application and establish a UF system consistent with the outcomes of CalHHS's
discussions with the federal government.

File #: 23-559 MEETING DATE: 7/18/2023
According to CalHHS, establishing the workgroup, conducting quarterly meetings, providing
quarterly updates, and submitting a report to the Legislature with recommendations by June 2024
will cost CalHHS an indeterminate amount, potentially in the low millions of dollars for fiscal year
2023-24 and ongoing (General Fund).
Status: July 12, 2023-first reading in Assembly Appropriations Committee.
IRC voted 3-0 to OPPOSE
6. AB 1287 (Alvarez) Density Bonus Law.
Requires a city, county, or city and county to grant additional density, concessions, and incentives
if an applicant agrees to include additional low or moderate-income units on top of the maximum
amount of units for lower, very low, or moderate-income units.
State law, known as density bonus law, grants certain benefits to developers who build affordable
units in order to encourage greater affordable housing production. Density bonus law requires
cities and counties to grant a density bonus when an applicant for a housing development of five
or more units seeks and agrees to construct a project that will contain at least one of the
following:
• 10% of the total units of a housing development for lower income households;
• 5% of the total units of a housing development for very low-income households;
• A senior citizen housing development or mobile home park;
• 10% of the units in a common interest development (CID) for moderate-income households;
• 10% of the total units for transitional foster youth, disabled veterans, or homeless persons; or
• 20% of the total units for lower income students in a student housing development.
If a project meets one of these conditions, the city or county must allow an increase in density on
a sliding scale from 20%-50% over the otherwise maximum allowable residential density under
the applicable zoning ordinance and land use element of the general plan, depending on the
percentage of affordable units.
Density bonus law also grants certain reductions in minimum parking requirements and grants
"incentives or concessions" that can be used to modify development policies that add costs or
reduce the number of units a developer can build on a site. The number of incentives or
concessions a project may be eligible for is based on the percentage of affordable units contained
in the project, up to a maximum of four. Incentives and concessions can vary widely based on the
individual projects, but examples can include reduced fees, waivers of zoning codes, or reduced
parking requirements. Density bonus law also allows developer waivers of any development
standards that physically prevents the developer from constructing a project at the density
allowed, along with the incentives or concessions, under density bonus law.
Assembly Bill 1287 expands density bonus for certain projects that already qualify for bonuses.
First, AB 1287 increases the number of incentives or concessions for 100% affordable projects
from four to five. Second, AB 1287 grants projects that include at least 16% of units for very low-
income households, or at least 45% for moderate income in a development in which the units are
for sale, four incentives or concessions. Third, AB 1287 requires a local agency to grant additional
density bonus when an applicant proposes to construct a housing development that does the

following:
• Dedicates at least 10% of total units for lower-income households;
• Includes additional rental or for-sale units for very low- or moderate-income households; and •
Meets any of the following:
• For projects with base density units of 10% for lower-income households,
provides 24% of total units to lower-income households;
• For projects with base density units of 5% of total units for very low-income
households, provides 15% of total units to very low-income households;
■ For projects with base density units of 10% of total units for sale to moderate
income households, provides 44% of total units to moderate-income units.
Status: July 10, 2023- Referred to Senate Appropriations Committee
IRC voted 3-0 to OPPOSE
7. SB 7 (Blakespear) The Homeless Housing Obligation Act.
SB 7 would require the regional housing needs assessment (RHNA) to include homeless as an
income category for local housing element planning purposes, and enact the Homeless Housing
Obligation Act, which requires each city and county to develop a housing obligation plan to
provide housing opportunities for each homeless person within its jurisdiction by January 1, 2030,
as specified. The bill would also require the Department of Housing and Community Development
(HCD) to develop and administer a new program, upon appropriation of funding by the
Legislature, to provide grants to cities, counties, and nonprofit housing entities to fulfill the
obligations to provide housing opportunities for homeless persons.
Status: May 15, 2023- placed in Suspense File.
IRC voted 3-0 to OPPOSE
8. SB 555 (Wahab) Stable Affordable Housing Act of 2023.
This bill creates the Stable Affordable Housing Act of 2023 (Act) for the purposes of planning for
the development of social housing through a mix of acquisition and new production.
SB 555 sets a 10-year goal for the state to create 1.2 million units of social housing through a mix
of acquisition and new production; Sets a five-year goal for the state to create 600,000 units of
social housing through a mix of acquisition and new production, of which no less than 200,000
units are affordable to extremely low-income and very low-income households; and requires the
Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), no later than January 1, 2025, to
develop, adopt, and submit to the Legislature a Social Housing Plan for achieving the social
housing unit goals set forth in the Act.
The bill requires HCD to submit an annual report to the Governor and the Legislature, beginning
January 1, 2026, on the state's progress toward achieving the goals of the Act, the
implementation status and outcomes of all programs and actions, and recommendations for
executive and legislative action.
Fiscal effects to the state are unknown.

9. SB 584 (Limon/Caballero) Laborforce housing: Short-Term Rental Tax Law
This bill requires a 15% state short-term rental (STR) occupancy tax to be collected, as specified,
and allocates the funds for the construction, acquisition and rehabilitation of affordable housing
and renter protection programs, as specified. This bill creates a new program at HCD, which
would finance "laborforce" housing units and provide grants to cities, counties, local housing
authorities, and eligible non-profits.
The City of Huntington Beach imposes a transient occupancy tax (TOT) of 10%. Both tourism and
hospitality are essential economic drivers and TOT is a primary source of General Fund revenue.
Imposing a 15% statewide tax, combined with the 10% local rate, would result in a total tax rate of
25% for Huntington Beach.
Laborforce housing administration and funding uses:
• Authorizes public entities, local housing authorities, and nonprofit housing provides to
receive funding from the Fund.
• Authorizes HCD to use any funds for administration purposes.
• Requires no less than 65% of the funds to be allocated to the creation of laborforce
housing through new construction.
• Requires no more than 30% of the funds to be used for the creation of laborforce
housing through the acquisition and rehabilitation of existing housing.
• Requires a maximum of 5% of the funds to be used to meet the operating needs of
projects and for planning and implementation of local housing or renter protection
programs, and authorizes up to 5% to be utilized for administration.
Status: June 15, 2023- referred to Assembly Committees on Housing & Community Development
and Revenue & Taxation.
IRC voted 3-0 to OPPOSE
10. SB 50 (Bradford) Vehicles: enforcement
This bill prohibits peace officers from initiating a traffic stop for specified low-level infractions
unless a separate, independent basis for a stop exists, and to authorize local authorities to
enforce traffic violations through the use of non-sworn government employees.
Existing law provides that the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers,
and effects against unreasonable seizures and searches may not be violated; and a warrant may
not issue except on probable cause.
SB 50 prohibits a peace officer from stopping or detaining the operator of a motor vehicle or a
bicycle for a low-level infraction unless there is a separate independent basis to initiate the stop,
or unless more than one low-level infraction is observed. This bill would define "low-level
infraction" as any violation related to vehicle registration or vehicle equipment, the position or

number of license plates, vehicle lighting not illuminating if it is a single light or single bulb,
bumper equipment and bicycle equipment or operation. While the bill does limit the permissible
bases for a traffic stop to some degree, there are still hundreds of traffic violations for which an
officer could initiate a stop, even as a pretext to investigate other potential crimes. For violations
where an officer does not have grounds to stop or detain a motorist or bicyclist, and the officer
can identify the owner of the vehicle, this bill would allow the officer to send a citation or fix-it
ticket to the motorists home address.

IRC voted 3-0 to OPPOSE
11. SB 838 (Menjivar) Victim compensation: use of force by a law enforcement officer
SB 838 would revise the definition of "crime" for purposes of the Victim Compensation Program
(VCP) to include an incident in which an individual sustains serious bodily injury or death as the
result of a law enforcement officer's use of force. This bill would allow compensation claims for
incidents in which an individual sustains serious bodily injury or death as the result of a law
enforcement officer's use of force.
Status: Placed in Suspense File.
IRC voted 3-0 to OPPOSE
12. Assembly Constitutional Amendment 4- Eligibility to Vote
Repeals a constitutional requirement for the Legislature to provide for the disqualification of
electors while serving a state or federal prison term for the conviction of a felony, subject to the
approval of the voters.
California law does not restrict the voting rights of people who are on probation or parole, or who
are on other types of supervision as a result of a criminal proceeding (such as mandatory
supervision, post-release community supervision, or federal supervised release). Until 2020,
California law prohibited a person who was on parole for the conviction of a felony from
registering to vote or voting. ACA 6 (McCarty), Chapter 24, Statutes of 2020, proposed an
amendment to the state constitution to allow a person who is on parole for the conviction of a
felony to register to vote and to vote. ACA 6 was approved by the Assembly by a 54-19 vote and
appeared on the ballot at the November 2020 statewide general election as Proposition 17.
According to the final official election results prepared by the Secretary of State, Proposition 17
was approved by the voters with 58.6% of ballots cast in favor of the amendment.
State law does not restrict the voting rights of individuals who are in a local detention facility while
doing any of the following: 1) serving a misdemeanor sentence, 2) serving jail time as a condition
of probation, 3) serving a felony jail sentence, or 4) awaiting trial. A person who is in a local
detention facility while serving a state prison term is not eligible to vote under existing law.
As a constitutional amendment, this measure requires the approval of the voters to take effect.

Dear Chair Umberg,
The City of Huntington Beach respectfully opposes AB 223.
AB 223 will limit access to court records, creating a dangerous precedent of hiding minor's
legal dealings from concerned adults. By limiting access to documents that are already
difficult to acquire, this creates a dangerous precedent and complicates the process of
involving a community of adults speaking into the life of a minor.
The bill makes it more difficult for concerned adults to be involved in a minor's life. Please
vote "No” on AB 223.

City of Huntington Beach - OPPOSE
Honorable Thomas Umberg,
The City of Huntington Beach respectfully opposes AB 957.AB 957 will require California
courts to consider a parent's affirmation of their child's new gender identity in custody
disputes. This bill will interfere with parental vision and personal religious views.
The potential denial of custody rights to a parent is cruel and hurts both the parent and
the child by severing the most important relationship in that child's life — a relationship
that is essential to the health and well-being of the child.
Please vote "No” on AB 957.

Subject: SB58(Wiener)-Controlled Substances: Decriminalization of Certain Hallucinogenic Substances
City of Huntington Beach—OPPOSE
Dear Chair Wood,
On behalf of the City of Huntington Beach, I write to you in respectful OPPOSITION to SB 58 (Wiener),
which would make lawful the possession of psilocybin, psilocyn, dimethyltryptamine(DMT), ibogaine, and
mescaline for personal use by people 21 years of age or older.
SB58, like its predecessor SB 519(Wiener, 2021), poses a clear and present danger to public safety. This
bill would legalize the use of several addictive and dangerous, illicit drugs. These drugs pose a threat to
public safety as they alter the relationship between the user and reality. While under the influence of these
drugs, the ability of the user to maintain control of their mental faculties is greatly diminished, placing
themselves and those around them at significant risk for physical harm.
Aside from the risks posed to individuals and the public from using these dangerous drugs, this bill further
erodes public safety by removing the criminal disincentive from using these drugs. By removing the criminal
penalties for possessing and using these dangerous drugs,this bill increases the likelihood of their use and
the likelihood that individuals will seek them out in the drug market. Individuals also face further danger
from purchasing these substances,which are often adulterated with other more lethal substances. Finally,
it is often the most vulnerable populations,and those who have the weakest support systems,that are most
susceptible to the increased access and use of drugs. At a time when every jurisdiction should be working
together to aid our most vulnerable populations, SB 58 will make it more difficult for them to escape the
cycle of hallucinogenic substance use,which frequently occurs in these areas.
For these reasons, the City of Huntington Beach must respectfully OPPOSE SB 58,
Sincerely,
d'--------'MO

Subject: AB 957 (Wilson) — Family Law: Gender Identity
City of Huntington Beach - OPPOSE
Honorable Thomas Umberg,
The City of Huntington Beach respectfully opposes AB 957. AB 957 will require California
courts to consider a parent's affirmation of their child's new gender identity in custody
disputes. This bill will interfere with parental vision and personal religious views.
The potential denial of custody rights to a parent is cruel and hurts both the parent and
the child by severing the most important relationship in that child's life — a relationship
that is essential to the health and well-being of the child.
Please vote "No" on AB 957.
Sincerely,
Tony Strickland

Subject: SB 253 (Wiener)— Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act
City of Huntington Beach-OPPOSE
Dear Chair Holden,
On behalf of the City of Huntington Beach, I write to you in respectful OPPOSITION to SB 253
(Wiener), which imposes added costs for business, large and small, to do business in California
through additional reporting requirements.
California should continue to implement and build upon existing programs and policies to regulate
and monitor in-state emissions rather than seek to obtain emissions data throughout the
international supply chain, especially seeing how it would have no authority to regulate emissions
beyond the California border. Out-of-state or non-California companies would challenge such
authority, or simply ignore it.
Although SB 253 identifies a large threshold for applicability, the bill requires companies to track
emissions not only for its California sites or products, but also requires emissions tracking of
distant upstream and downstream supply chains. Those small and medium-sized businesses are
likely under resourced and will struggle to accurately measure their GHG emissions, leaving these
companies without the contracts that enable them to grow and employ more workers. This has
the ability to create inefficient supply chains that will further add costs to the end-user.
For these reasons, the City of Huntington Beach must respectfully OPPOSE SB 253.
Sincerely,
Aii

City of Huntington Beach -OPPOSE
Dear Chair Holden,
On behalf of the City of Huntington Beach, I write to you in respectful OPPOSITION to SB 770
(Wiener/McGuire).
This bill would establish a working group to advise the governor in informal conversations with
the federal government about waivers to capture federal funds for a unified financing health care
system.This bill takes tangible steps on a concrete timeline toward achieving universal healthcare
in California. The waivers would redirect all current funding from the federal government used for
Medi-Cal and Medicare to finance a government monopoly of medical, behavioral health,
pharmaceutical, dental, vision, and long-term care benefits.
This will implement government run medicine, which will dictate which medicines and medical
treatments Californians will be allowed to have.
For these reasons, the City of Huntington Beach must respectfully OPPOSE SB 770.

Subject: AB 1287 (Alvarez)—Density Bonus Law
City of Huntington Beach -OPPOSE
Dear Chair Holden,
On behalf of the City of Huntington Beach, I would like to express our respectful opposition to AB
1287-- Density Bonus Law: Additional Density Bonus and Incentives or Concessions.
Assembly Bill 1287 would require a city or county to grant a housing development an additional
density bonus should the project provide 24% of the base density units to lower income
households, 15% of the base density units to very-low income households, or 44% of the total
units to moderate-income units.
The City's position on AB1287 derives from our understanding that the bill limits cities' local
policing powers over housing development processes in their own jurisdictions. As an
organization, we believe cities have the ability and authority to fashion housing and development
policies that best fit the needs of their communities .Every city is different, and these unique
attributes should be a key consideration when developing policies that will impact local
communities. In its current form, the Density Bonus Law already serves as a robust set of rules
and incentives for housing developments across the State. By adding new layers of requirements
to the Density Bonus Law, AB 1287 would broaden a one-size-fits-all approach to developing
housing, limiting cities' ability to address the specific housing needs of their constituents.
For these reasons, the City of Huntington Beach respectfully opposes AB 1287.

Subject:SB 7-The Homeless Housing Obligation Act
City of Huntington Beach-OPPOSE
Dear Senator Blakespear,
On behalf of the City of Huntington Beach, I would like to express our respectful opposition to SB
7, which requires each city and county to provide housing opportunities for homeless individuals
within its jurisdiction, based on their most recent point-in-time count.
Specifically, SB 7 would require local governments to plan for and provide housing for homeless
individuals within its jurisdiction based on point-in-time (PIT) counts.This obligation is duplicative of
existing housing element law, which already requires cities to assess the need for emergency
shelter based on the most recent PIT count and assist in developing adequate housing to meet
the needs of extremely low-income households. Housing element law also currently requires cities
to identify sites and encourage the development of a variety of housing, including supportive
housing and transitional housing. Rather than duplicate existing planning efforts, the Legislature
should focus on providing funding directly to cities to realize these plans, and spur much needed
development.
We agree that funding is needed to support cities in addressing the state's homelessness crisis.
However, SB 7 lacks critical details about the funding source and the administration of the
proposed Housing Obligation Fund. SB 7 does not clearly identify an ongoing source of funding
and determination of how those dollars will be allocated. Given the potential of billions of dollars
in costs to local governments to implement SB 7, cities that do not receive state funding cannot
be expected to fulfill this new obligation.
For these reasons,the City of Huntington Beach respectfully opposes SB 7.

Subject: SB 555 (Wahab) — Stable Affordable Housing Act of 2023
City of Huntington Beach - OPPOSE
Dear Chair Holden,
On behalf of the City of Huntington Beach, I write in respectful opposition of SB 555.
If passed, it will contribute to the State's grasp for housing and ultimately interfering with
local control.
SB 555 would require the state to buy thousands of existing homes contending with the
private market potentially driving up prices even more. SB 555 would allow the state to
buy single-family homes to convert to social housing instead of focusing solely on building
new projects, making it harder for working Californians to achieve homeownership.
For these reasons, the City of Huntington Beach respectfully opposes SB 555.

Subject: SB 584 (Limon) — Laborforce Housing: Short-Term Rental Tax Law
City of Huntington Beach - OPPOSE
Dear Chair Wicks,
On behalf of the City of Huntington Beach, I write in respectful opposition of SB 584,which
requires a 15%statewide short-term rental (STR) occupancy tax to be collected and used
for labor force housing. SB 584 defines a "short-term rental" as the occupancy of a home,
house, a room in a home or house or other lodging that is not a hotel, inn, motel, or bed
and breakfast in this state for a period of 30 days or less.
Our community supports equitable and affordable housing creation and balanced short-
term rental laws. A 15% tax on short-term rentals is not a balanced approach. It would
be devastating for short-term rental owners and managers across the State, the network
of small businesses that depend on them, the State's tourism economy at large and local
communities. Short-term rentals provide additional lodging options for leisure and
business travel. An additional 15% tax would ultimately harm visitors and the small
businesses that rely on them while making this California lodging segment's pricing
uncompetitive with other out-of-state destinations. This tax will discourage visitors from
booking these accommodations and the tourism industry and communities across our
State will suffer.
This bill would give the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD)
unilateral authority over the collected funds with no guarantee that the resources will be
reinvested in our community. Moreover, this bill creates complex and burdensome
obligations by establishing the first-ever statewide assessment on STRs. Finally, SB 584
mandates the use of project labor agreements for all construction and rehabilitation work
that would take place, creating a significant hurdle to achieving the housing goals of this
bill. With a potential decline in tourism on the horizon, as well as an expected decline in
the jobs and services it provides, this will cause an unnecessary financial strain on the
city and our community.
Short-term rentals provide an important option for traveling families who may not
otherwise be able to afford comparable accommodations or have differing needs for
Fax 714.536.5233 Office: 714.636.5553
lodging accommodations. By imposing this unfairly steep tax, SB 584 puts this important
lodging option out of reach for many travelers, disproportionately affecting lower-income
travelers and homeowners who use their home to augment their income or plan for
retirement.
For these reasons, the City of Huntington Beach respectfully opposes SB 584.
Sincerely,
ogy

Subject: SB 50 (Bradford)— Vehicles: Enforcement

Dear Chair Wahab,
On behalf of the City of Huntington Beach, I would like to express our respectful opposition for
Senate Bill 50, which prohibits peace officers from initiating a traffic stop for specified low-level
infractions unless a separate, independent basis for a stop exists, or if more than one low-level
infraction is observed.
SB 50 states that a violation of these provisions is not grounds for a defendant to move for return
of property or to suppress evidence and authorizes local authorities to enforce traffic violations
through the use of non-sworn government employees. This provision in SB 50 jeopardizes public
safety, undermines the rule of law, and reduces accountability for low-level infractions. We want
to keep our community safe, and the provisions in SB 50 add barriers to that goal.
For these reasons, the City of Huntington Beach respectfully opposes SB 50.

Subject: SB 838 (Menjivar)— Victim Compensation: Use of Force by a Law Enforcement Officer
City of Huntington Beach—OPPOSE
Dear Senator Menjivar,
On behalf of the City of Huntington Beach, I would like to express our respectful opposition for SB 838.The
victim compensation program was created in 1965, the first such program in the country. The program
provides compensation for victims of violent crime,and it reimburses eligible victims for many crime-related
expenses, such as counseling and medical fees. Funding for the CaIVCB comes from restitution fines and
penalty assessments paid by criminal offenders, as well as federal matching funds.
SB838 would prohibit the California Victims Compensation Board (CalVCB) from denying funds based on
the victim's involvement in a crime, the victim's failure to cooperate, or the contents of a police report, or
the lack thereof. CalVCB may deny funds only if the victim is convicted of a violent felony that resulted in
death or serious bodily injury. The restitution fund is limited and should be reserved for victims of crime.
Persons who are unlawfully injured or killed by police should be entitled to compensation. However,this bill
allows persons who are lawfully injured or killed while engaging in serious and dangerous crimes to demand
compensation unless they fall into one of two very limited exceptions.
The Restitution Fund is the source of CalVCB reimbursements. It operated under a structural deficiency for
a number of years.Although revenue has remained consistent,expenditures have outpaced revenues since
FY 2015-16. By expanding the criteria for CalVCB reimbursement claims, which are paid out of the
continuously appropriated Restitution Fund, this bill would appropriate moneys from the General Fund.
For these reasons, the City of Huntington Beach respectfully opposes SB 838.

Subject: Assembly Constitutional Amendment 4: Eligibility to Vote
City of Huntington Beach - OPPOSE
Dear Assemblymember Bryan,
On behalf of the City of Huntington Beach, I write to you in respectful OPPOSITION to ACA 4,
which would repeal a constitutional requirement for the Legislature to provide for the
disqualification of electors while serving a state or federal prison term for the conviction of a felony,
subject to the approval of the voters.
In opposition to this measure, convicted individuals must necessarily lose many freedoms and
civil rights that law-abiding citizens can enjoy like the rights of speech or expression, movement,
parental privilege, even personal liberties and recreation. Until quite recently, one of the freedoms
lost almost everywhere has been the right to vote.
When a person voluntarily breaks the social contract and hurts someone or takes another's
property, societies worldwide have seen the logic in removing their right to participate in the
activity of choosing society's governors and governing policies. Voting is a privilege and not an
absolute right of citizenship. Losing the right to vote, as an incarcerated felon, is part of paying
debt to society. This is not an issue of disenfranchisement because each felon is treated equally,
in losing their right to vote, while incarcerated. Upon serving their sentence, felons equally can
have their rights restored.
For these reasons, the City of Huntington Beach respectfully opposes Assembly Constitutional
Amendment 4.

In reviewing the agenda for the 7-18 meeting,there is an agenda item which recommends positions on various
pieces of legislation. Some of the legislation reviewed does not appear to have a direct impact on the City.
The IRC is a city council subcommittee that looks at pending legislation and how that legislation could affect the
City.
"The IRC was established to allow a more comprehensive focus on pending legislation that could impact the City."
That's a pretty broad definition.
Under prior councils Erik Peterson employed a narrowed definition. He advocated that the Council only take
positions on that legislation having a probable direct impact on the City.
I implore you to honor the narrower definition and not take positions on A,B,D,E,or L.
Thank you.

This affects all sectors.

proven that cellular waves do exist and a person can feel the waves stinging when too close to
