In no event shall any retirement allowance payable under this chapter to a member exceed the compensation payable to Members of the Legislature at the time the payment of the allowance is made, except that the retirement allowance of a member who is credited with more than 15 years shall be increased by an amount equal to 3 percent of the compensation payable, at the time payment of the allowance falls due, to incumbent Members of the Senate or Assembly for each year or fraction of a year in excess of 15 years.

(b) The retirement allowance for a member all of whose credited service was rendered as the Insurance Commissioner or as an elective officer of the state whose office is provided for by the Constitution other than a judge or a Member of the Senate or Assembly is the sum of (1) an annual amount equal to 5 percent of the highest compensation received by the officer while serving in that office, multiplied by the number of years of service with which the member is credited at the time of his or her retirement, not to exceed 8 years, plus, if the member is credited with 24 or more years of service, (2) 1 2/3 percent of the compensation to which the 5-percent rate is applicable under subparagraph (1) for his or her first 8 years of credited service, multiplied by the number of years of service in excess of 8 years with which the member is credited at the time of his or her retirement, not to exceed 12 years of credited service in excess of the 8 years of service referred to in subparagraph (1).

(c) The retirement allowance for a member part of whose credited service was rendered as a Member of the Senate or Assembly and part of whose credited service was rendered as the Insurance Commissioner or as an elective officer of the state whose office is provided for by the Constitution, other than a judge or a Member of the Senate or Assembly, is the sum of (1) an annual amount equal to 5 percent of all the compensation, at the time payment of the allowance falls due, to the officer holding the highest salaried office that the member held at any time during his or her service prior to retirement, multiplied by the number of years of service with which the member is credited at the time of his or her retirement, not to exceed 8 years, plus, if the member is credited with 24 or more years of service, (2) 1 2/3 percent of the compensation to which the 5-percent rate is applicable under subparagraph (1) for his or her first 8 years of credited service, multiplied by the number of years of service rendered as the Insurance Commissioner or as an elective officer of the state whose office is provided for by the Constitution, other than a judge or a Member of the Senate or Assembly, with which the member is credited at the time of his or her retirement, not to exceed 12 years of that credited service in excess of the 8 years referred to in subparagraph (1). If, however, the member would be entitled to receive a greater allowance under subdivision (a), (b), or (d) if all of his or her credited service had been rendered as a Member of the Senate or Assembly or as the Insurance Commissioner or as an elective officer of the state whose office is provided for by the Constitution other than a judge or a Member of the Senate or Assembly, then all of his or her credited service shall be deemed to have been rendered as a Member of the Senate or Assembly or as an elective officer, and he or she shall receive a retirement allowance computed under subdivision (a), (b), or (d), whichever is greater.

(d) The retirement allowance for a member, all of whose service was rendered as a Member of the Senate or Assembly, who is the surviving spouse of a deceased Member of the Senate or Assembly and who becomes the immediate successor in office of a deceased Member of the Senate or Assembly is an annual amount equal to 5 percent of the compensation payable, at the time the payments of the allowance fall due, to incumbent Members of the Senate or Assembly, multiplied by the number of years of service with which the member is credited at the time of retirement plus the number of years of service as a Member of the Senate or Assembly rendered by the member’s deceased spouse plus any period in the term, for which the deceased member was elected, following his or her death, not to exceed 15 years. In no event shall any retirement allowance payable under this chapter to a member exceed the compensation payable to Members of the Legislature at the time the payment of the allowance is made, except that the retirement allowance of a member, whose total service creditable under this subdivision is in excess of 15 years, shall be increased by an amount equal to 3 percent of the compensation payable, at the time payment of the allowance falls due, to incumbent Members of the Senate or Assembly for each year or fraction of a year in excess of 15 years. This same computation of total service creditable shall be used as a basis in determining eligibility for retirement, under Sections 9359 and 9359.16, of a member described in this subdivision. A member to whom this subdivision applies shall redeposit an amount equal to the contributions that were required to be contributed by his or her deceased spouse while he or she was a member of the system for his or her service, computed on the basis of the salary and rate of contribution in effect at the time service was rendered, or would have been rendered, in the Legislators’ Retirement Fund on account of the service of his or her deceased spouse in order to use that service for the purposes of this section and Sections 9359 and 9359.16.

The amendments to this section enacted at the 1969 Regular Session shall apply with respect to a member who retired or retires, or died or dies while eligible to retire on or after May 1, 1969, and any allowance payable with respect to that member who retired or died prior to the effective date of that amendment, shall be adjusted effective from the date of retirement or death to the amount it would have been had the amendment been in effect on that date.

Sections 9359.11 and 9359.12 shall control over any conflicting provisions of this section.

The amendments to this section during the 1973–74 Second Extraordinary Session shall not be applicable to members who are retired on the effective date of the amendments.

(a) A homeowner shall not be charged a fee for the enforcement of any of the rules and regulations of the park, except a reasonable fee may be charged by management for the maintenance or cleanup, as described in subdivision (b), of the land and premises upon which the mobilehome is situated in the event the homeowner fails to do so in accordance with the rules and regulations of the park after written notification to the homeowner and the failure of the homeowner to comply within 14 days. The written notice shall state the specific condition to be corrected and an estimate of the charges to be imposed by management if the services are performed by management or its agent.

(b) (1) If management determines, in good faith, that the removal of a homeowner’s or resident’s personal property from the land and premises upon which the mobilehome is situated is necessary to bring the premises into compliance with the reasonable rules and regulations of the park or the provisions of the Mobilehome Parks Act (Part 2.1 (commencing with Section 18200) of Division 13 of the Health and Safety Code) or Title 25 of the California Code of Regulations, management may remove the property to a reasonably secure storage facility. Management shall provide written notice of at least 14 days of its intent to remove the personal property, including a description of the property to be removed. The notice shall include the rule, regulation, or code justifying the removal and shall provide an estimate of the charges to be imposed by management. The property to be removed shall not include the mobilehome or its appurtenances or accessory structures.

(2) The homeowner or resident shall be responsible for reimbursing to management the actual, reasonable costs, if any, of removing and storing the property. These costs incurred by management in correcting the rules violation associated with the removal and storage of the property, are deemed reasonable incidental service charges and may be collected pursuant to subdivision (e) of Section 798.56 if a notice of nonpayment of the removal and storage fees, as described in paragraph (3), is personally served on the homeowner.

(3) Within seven days from the date the property is removed to a storage area, management shall provide the homeowner or resident a written notice that includes an inventory of the property removed, the location where the property may be claimed, and notice that the cost of removal and storage shall be paid by the resident or homeowner. If, within 60 days, the homeowner or resident does not claim the property, the property shall be deemed to be abandoned, and management may dispose of the property in any manner. The homeowner’s or resident’s liability for storage charges shall not exceed 60 days. If the homeowner or resident claims the property, but has not reimbursed management for storage costs, management may bill those costs in a monthly statement which shall constitute notice of nonpayment, and the costs shall become the obligation of the homeowner or resident. If a resident or homeowner communicates in writing his or her intent to abandon the property before 60 days has expired, management may dispose of the property immediately and no further storage charges shall accrue.

(4) If management elects to dispose of the property by way of sale or auction, and the funds received from the sale or auction exceed the amount owed to management, management shall refund the difference to the homeowner or resident within 15 days from the date of management’s receipt of the funds from the sale or auction. The refund shall be delivered to the homeowner or resident by first-class mail postage prepaid to his or her address in the park, or by personal delivery, and shall include an accounting specifying the costs of removal and storage of the property incurred by management in correcting the rules violation and the amount of proceeds realized from any sale or auction. If a sale or auction of the property yields less than the costs incurred by management, the homeowner or resident shall be responsible for the difference, and this amount shall be deemed a reasonable incidental service charge and may be collected pursuant to subdivision (e) of Section 798.56 if a notice of nonpayment of the removal and storage fees, as described in paragraph (3), is personally served on the homeowner. If management elects to proceed under this section, it may not also terminate the tenancy pursuant to subdivision (d) of Section 798.56 based upon the specific violations relied upon to proceed under this section. In any proceeding under this section, management shall bear the burden of proof that enforcement was undertaken in a nondiscriminatory, nonselective fashion.

The department shall report to the commission prior to each projection regarding the cash-flow needs of the state transportation improvement program for the following six months.

(d) Prior to loan approval, local agencies shall certify that other resources are not available to fund the project for which the loan is requested and that the agency does not intend to create an indirect arbitrage situation.

(e) Not later than 120 days from the effective date of the act that added this section during the 1999–2000 Regular Session, the commission, in consultation with the department and interested parties, shall propose guidelines and procedures to implement and expedite the loan program established under this section.

The fact that such property received upon creation of the principal does not fall within the category of investments which the tenant or a trustee would be authorized to make under the law or the terms of the particular instrument by which the principal is established, nor the conferring of a mere authority, as distinguished from a direction, to sell such property, shall not be deemed to evidence an intent that the form of the investment shall be changed.

Thereupon the authority of the agent to act in that capacity shall cease and the Secretary of State forthwith shall mail or otherwise provide written notice of the filing of the statement of resignation to the limited partnership or foreign limited partnership at its designated office.

(3) The resignation of an agent may be effective if, on a form prescribed by the Secretary of State containing the name of the limited partnership, the Secretary of State’s file number for the limited partnership, and the name of the agent for service of process, the agent disclaims having been properly appointed as the agent.

(2) If no bids are received, or if the Treasurer determines that the bids are not satisfactory, the Treasurer may reject all bids received, if any, and either readvertise or sell the bonds at private sale.

Section 13995.1
Status: in_force

The Legislature hereby finds and declares all of the following:

(a) Tourism is among California’s biggest industries, contributing over fifty-two billion dollars ($52,000,000,000) to the state economy and employing nearly 700,000 Californians in 1995.

(b) In order to retain and expand the tourism industry in California, it is necessary to market travel to and within California.

(c) State funding, while an important component of marketing, has been unable to generate sufficient funds to meet the threshold levels of funding necessary to reverse recent losses of California’s tourism market share.

(d) In regard to the need for a cooperative partnership between business and industry:

(1) It is in the state’s public interest and vital to the welfare of the state’s economy to expand the market for, and develop, California tourism through a cooperative partnership funded in part by the state that will allow generic promotion and communication programs.

(2) The mechanism established by this chapter is intended to play a unique role in advancing the opportunity to expand tourism in California, and it is intended to increase the opportunity for tourism to the benefit of the tourism industry and the consumers of the State of California.

(3) Programs implemented pursuant to this chapter are intended to complement the marketing activities of individual competitors within the tourism industry.

(4) While it is recognized that smaller businesses participating in the tourism market often lack the resources or market power to conduct these activities on their own, the programs are intended to be of benefit to businesses of all sizes.

(5) These programs are not intended to, and they do not, impede the right or ability of individual businesses to conduct activities designed to increase the tourism market generally or their own respective shares of the California tourism market, and nothing in the mechanism established by this chapter shall prevent an individual business or participant in the industry from seeking to expand its market through alternative or complementary means, or both.

(6) (A) An individual business’s own advertising initiatives are typically designed to increase its share of the California tourism market rather than to increase or expand the overall size of that market.

(B) In contrast, generic promotion of California as a tourism destination is intended and designed to maintain or increase the overall demand for California tourism and to maintain or increase the size of that market, often by utilizing promotional methods and techniques that individual businesses typically are unable, or have no incentive, to employ.

(7) This chapter creates a mechanism to fund generic promotions that, pursuant to the required supervision and oversight of the director as specified in this chapter, further specific state governmental goals, as established by the Legislature, and result in a promotion program that produces nonideological and commercial communication that bears the characteristics of, and is entitled to all the privileges and protections of, government speech.

(8) The programs implemented pursuant to this chapter shall be carried out in an effective and coordinated manner that is designed to strengthen the tourism industry and the state’s economy as a whole.

(9) Independent evaluation of the effectiveness of the programs will assist the Legislature in ensuring that the objectives of the programs as set out in this section are met.

(e) An industry-approved assessment provides a private-sector financing mechanism that, in partnership with state funding, will provide the amount of marketing necessary to increase tourism marketing expenditures by California.

(f) The goal of the assessments is to assess the least amount per business, in the least intrusive manner, spread across the greatest practical number of tourism industry segments.

(g) The California Travel and Tourism Commission shall target an amount determined to be sufficient to market effectively travel and tourism to and within the state.

(h) In the course of developing its written marketing plan pursuant to Section 13995.45, the California Travel and Tourism Commission shall, to the maximum extent feasible, do both of the following:

(1) Seek advice and recommendations from all segments of California’s travel and tourism industry and from all geographic regions of the state.

(2) Harmonize, as appropriate, its marketing plan with the travel and tourism marketing activities and objectives of the various industry segments and geographic regions.

(i) The California Travel and Tourism Commission’s marketing budget shall be spent principally to bring travelers and tourists into the state. No more than 15 percent of the commission’s assessed funds in any year shall be spent to promote travel within California, unless approved by at least two-thirds of the commissioners.
