The City of San Diego would likely have to service debt from the General Fund, which funds street repairs, programs for citizens, and other public services, in order to maintain its credit ratings and avoid higher financing charges for future debt.

SUMMARY: Requires the State Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) to apply to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to sponsor a specialized license plate program using professional sport team logos, as specified. Establishes the California State Parks Account (Account) and specifies that revenues from the Account be used by DPR to fund local park and recreation programs. EXISTING LAW: 1) Allows any state agency to apply to DMV to sponsor a specialized license plate program. 2) Requires DMV to issue specialized license plates for that program if the agency complies with all statutory requirements. 3) Prohibits DMV from establishing a specialized license plate program for an agency until it has received not less than 7,500 paid applications for that agency's specialized license plates. 4) Requires the agency to collect and hold applications for the plates. Once the agency has received at least 7,500 applications, it must submit the applications, along with the necessary fees, to DMV. 5) Prohibits advance payment to DMV of its administrative costs associated with the issuance of a particular specialized license plate from constituting compliance with the 7,500 application threshold requirement. 6) Requires funds accruing to a sponsoring state agency from the sale of specialized license plates to be expended exclusively for projects and programs that promote that agency's official policy, mission, or work.
