INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Evans

                        FEBRUARY 16, 2010

   An act to add Section 41344.6 to the Education Code, and to repeal

	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1874, as introduced, Evans. Education finance: Vallejo City
Unified School District.
   Existing law appropriates $60,000,000 from the General Fund to the
Superintendent of Public Instruction for apportionment to the
Vallejo City Unified School District as an emergency loan. Existing
law authorizes the Vallejo City Unified School District, from June
30, 2004, to July 1, 2010, inclusive, to sell property owned by the
district and to use the proceeds from the sale to reduce or retire
that emergency loan.
   This act would place this provision in the Education Code, and
extend the termination date of the operation of this provision from
July 1, 2010, to January 1, 2015.
   This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to
the necessity of a special statute for the Vallejo City Unified
School District.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

inclusive, the Vallejo City Unified School District may sell property
owned by the district and use the proceeds from the sale to reduce
or retire the emergency loan provided in Section 9 of Chapter 53 of
the Statutes of 2004. The sale only of property pursuant to this
subdivision is not subject to Section 17459 or 17464.
   (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, from January 1,
2011, to January 1, 2015, inclusive, the Vallejo City Unified School
