Doyle, General Manager Erich Pfuehler, Government Affairs Manager SUBJECT: Board Legislative Committee Meeting WHEN: Friday, August 19, 2016 – 1:30 p.m. Lunch will be served WHERE: Board Room, Peralta Oaks _______ Items to be discussed: I. STATE LEGISLATION / ISSUES A. NEW LEGISLATION 1. AB 2796 (Bloom D-Santa Monica / Low D-Silicon Valley) – Active Transportation Program Assembly Members Richard Bloom and Evan Low’s bill would require at least 10% of the Active Transportation Program (ATP) funding to be allocated for planning and non-infrastructure activities. By establishing a 10% minimum requirement in statute for planning and non- infrastructure projects, the bill would reduce the amount of funding available for ATP infrastructure projects, thereby creating pressures on an oversubscribed program. Current ATP guidelines specify 2% of funds are set aside for planning. The bill also, however, allows a local agency to spend its own funds on a project and then be reimbursed by the ATP at a later time. This fund advancement concept would help the District in accessing ATP funds in a timely manner. For example, current ATP applications for Lone Tree and Doolittle are for 2019-20 and 2020-21, which is the earliest the ATP program has funding available. Should this legislation be enacted, the District could spend funds on either Lone Tree or Doolittle in advance of 2019 and potentially be reimbursed later by ATP funds when they become available. Overall, the ATP should seek to better align application periods with funding availability, but that is not specifically addressed in this legislation. The bill is supported by Bike East Bay, Rails-to-Trails Conservancy and the Trust for Public Land, among others. Staff Recommendation: Watch 2. SB 450 (Allen D- Santa Monica) – Vote by Mail Voting and Mail Ballot Elections Senator Ben Allen introduced SB 450 on behalf of Secretary of State Alex Padilla. The bill would allow counties to mail all voters ballots which could be returned at any of several “vote centers.” Vote centers are required to be open, in lieu of polling places, for 10 days preceding, and on, Election Day. Ballots could also be dropped off in secure boxes available 24 hours a day. Drop- off locations are to be available from the 28th day before the election through Election Day. SB 450 is modeled after the way Colorado conducts its elections wherein every voter automatically receives a vote by mail ballot. Colorado voters may then return their ballots by mail or in person at numerous drop-off locations and innovative vote centers. In lieu of traditional neighborhood polling places, these vote centers are placed in convenient locations and open 1 several days prior to each election. Furthermore, voters can use any vote center or drop-off location in their home county – they are not limited to using the one closest to their residence. Staff Recommendation: Support B. ISSUES 1. Park Bond Update (AB 2444) Advocate Houston will provide a verbal update about the status of a possible state park bond and/or inclusion of park interests in any broader infrastructure bond. 2. Endowments Bill Update (SB 1020) Advocate Houston will provide a verbal update about legislation addressing endowments and the District. 3. Cap and Trade The Governor and Legislature agreed to the parameters of the state budget in June. Due to lower than expected revenues in the May auction (generating only 2% of the expected $500 million), however, the Cap and Trade budget allocations have been deferred to a trailer bill. As of this writing, discussions about the $1.4 billion of unspent reserves are being held up by the debate about SB 32. SB 32 requires a statewide emission reduction target of 40% below 1990 levels by 2030. It would essentially ensure the greenhouse gas reduction fund and Cap and Trade program continue until at least 2030. It has become a significant enough debate in the legislature that the Governor has proposed putting the goals of SB 32 before the voters as a statewide ballot measure. The Governor’s proposal for the “discretionary” funding in this year’s budget is $3.2 million in total and includes: $150 million for healthy forests $30 million for urban forests $60 million for wetland and watershed restoration $20 million for urban greening $60 million for renewable energy and energy efficiency projects The accessibility of these funds for the District is unknown at this time. 4. Other Issues II. FEDERAL LEGISLATION / ISSUES A. NEW LEGISLATION – N/A B. ISSUES 1. Land and Water Conservation Fund Grant Application The District’s application for $750,000 from the Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership LWCF grant program is one of two projects approved by the state Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) and recommended to the National Park Service (NPS). The project is tidal marsh restoration, upland enhancement and public access improvements at Bay Point Regional Shoreline. If awarded, this grant would leverage significant funds for the project, estimated to cost between $7 and $9 million. The project will restore 27-acres and acquire an easement on 2 an adjacent property to improve public access to the main channel of the Delta. The enhanced and restored wetlands and park improvements are designed to be resilient and adaptive to sea level rise. 4,020 people live within a half mile radius of Bay Point Regional Shoreline with a per capita income of $15,920 (Source: LWCF Fact Finder). The NPS will issue $15 million in grants nationwide to benefit mostly disadvantaged communities. With only two applications per state advancing for NPS consideration, this is a highly competitive program. NPS’s project award list is expected mid-September. At this time, District staff and advocates are working to garner support at the Federal level for the Bay Point application. 2. Other Issues III. BALLOT MEASURES A. Oakland Infrastructure Bond The City of Oakland approved a $600 million infrastructure bond measure for the November 2016 ballot. The funds are divided into three allocation areas: 1. $350 million – Streets, sidewalks, and pedestrian, bicycle and traffic safety; 2. $150 million – Public safety and improving quality of life – libraries, parks and recreation, fire and police; 3. $100 million – Housing anti-displacement measures. This measure will prioritize project funding based on four criteria; does it: 1.

  • 2019 Small Business Scorecard
    2019 SMALL BUSINESS SCORECARD Introduction Elected officials everywhere tout their support of small businesses, but do they actually deliver? California is home to 4 million small and micro businesses, represented by 79 Assembly Members and 40 California State Senators. We decided to find out by looking at the voting records of California’s legislators when it comes to bills that affect the entrepreneurial ecosystem and the small businesses that it serves. CAMEO’s policy positions derive from our work with our 240+ members that support underserved small business with loans and entrepreneurial training. We weigh in on legislation that will help these small and microbusinesses and strengthen the entrepreneurial ecosystem. This first-ever scorecard for the 2019 legislative session looks at how the California Legislature performed in authoring, voting, and passing laws to promote and protect the interests of Calfiornia’s small and micro business owners. We compiled a narrow list of bills for the 2019 legislative session that we identified as important for micro and small businesses and/or the ecosystem that supports them. C A M E O N E T W O R K . O R G Examples include: AB 230 ensures Disabled Veterans Businesses are treated fairly in state contracts; AB 377 expands the cottage kitchen laws to include home cooked meals; AB 498 eliminates business license fees for veteran owned businesses; AB 857 will create a framework for public banking in California and expand community capital for locally owned businesses. We included committee votes, floor votes, authorships, co-sponsors and measured if a legislator voted in favor or against, as well as the No Vote Record (NVR).

    OPPOSE BUDGET CUTS TO OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY SERVICES Date of Call to Action: May 27, 2020 California Governor Newsom introduced the revised 2020-21 State Budget this past week which includes significant budget cuts across the board due to the resulting recession from the current State of Emergency. Additionally, California is anticipating an increase in individuals enrolled in the Medi-Cal healthcare system of up to two million persons. As such, the Governor has included a proposal to eliminate the coverage of adult occupational therapy services under Medi-Cal services. Other services being eliminated or modified in this proposal include dental services, audiology services, speech therapy, physical therapy, podiatric services, optometric and optician/optical lab services, diabetes prevention programs, and screening, brief intervention, referral to treatments for opioids and other drugs. OTAC strongly opposes this budget proposal and urges our members to take action now. These cuts may significantly reduce the access to covered occupational therapy services under the Medi-Cal healthcare system for adults of all ages at a time when access to essential healthcare services is imperative. It is vital that all members reach out to their own Assemblymember and Senator as well as the members on the Budget subcommittees listed below. Identify your personal Assemblymember and Senator at www.findyourrep.legislature.ca.gov and submit via their websites. If your Assemblymember and/or Senator is listed below, please note in your letter that you are their constituent.

  • Daunting Ballot Awaiting California Voters by MATTHEW ARTZ | [email protected], July 4, 2016
    Election 2016: Daunting ballot awaiting California voters By MATTHEW ARTZ | [email protected], July 4, 2016 Voters are in store for another thick November ballot — one that will offer up more statewide initiatives than IHOP has pancake dishes. With California Secretary of State Alex Padilla certifying 17 ballot measures late last week — the most for any election since March 2000, when the state’s voters grappled with 20 measures A man fills out a ballot while standing at a voting booth at City Hall in — local residents can expect San Francisco, Tuesday, June 7, 2016. (AP) to cast upward of five double-sided pages worth of votes and receive election guides that could number more than 200 pages, said Joe Canciamilla, Contra Costa County’s election chief. “The ballot is just going to be a nightmare,” he said. As voters labor over questions about legalizing marijuana, eliminating the death penalty and making adult film actors wear condoms during sex, studies show that nearly 1 in 10 of them will likely give up before making it to the raft of local races, including a $3 billion BART bond measure. And many more will find themselves nixing initiatives they never had the time to grasp, said Shaun Bowler, a ballot measure expert at UC Riverside. “The conventional wisdom is the more propositions you have, the more ‘no’ voting you get because people say, ‘I don’t want to take the time to figure this out,’ ” he said. But that’s the price of the election business in California, where the state’s century-old commitment to direct democracy is both a hallowed institution and a source of ritual bellyaching.
