Description

Elaine M. Howle (ed). Concerns California’s state mandate process & local entity claims submitted under the Peace Officers Procedural Bill of Rights (peace officer rights) & animal adoption mandates. This report concludes that the costs for both mandates are significantly higher than what the Legislature initially expected. In addition, the Bureau found that the local entities they reviewed claimed costs under the peace officer rights mandate for activities that far exceeded the Commission on State Mandates’ intent. Further, claimants under both mandates lacked adequate supporting documentation & made errors in calculating costs claimed. The problems identified highlight the need for some structural reforms of the mandate process.
