Status: in_force

The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:

(a) There is a need to develop and apply ecologically based pest management alternatives that are environmentally sound to prevent, control, and eradicate pests.

(b) The continuation of pest control technology in agriculture which relies primarily on synthetic chemicals may be impractical, given the dwindling number of newly registered chemicals, increasing resistance of numerous pests to pesticides, public concern about pesticide residues, and potential threats posed to environmental quality and human health.

(c) To be adequately prepared for existing and new infestations of agricultural pests, California needs to have a means of coordinating and evaluating long-term basic and applied pest research, including the impact of prevention, control, and eradication efforts upon public health and the environment.

(d) The state should facilitate, promote, and support collaborative pest research programs and projects by its agencies, public and private universities, the federal government, and the agricultural industry that work toward developing environmentally sound, ecologically based pest management techniques.

(e) In order to strengthen pest prevention, control, and eradication efforts, it is the intent of the Legislature that an administrative structure be created within the University of California which, in cooperation with California’s public and private universities, the state, the agricultural industry, and persons experienced with environmentally sound, ecologically based pest management alternatives, advances pest research and formulates innovative solutions that better safeguard the environment and public health.

Toward these ends, the Legislature requests that the Regents of the University of California establish a pest research center which will review and prioritize pest-related research activities conducted through the university.

Section 13000
Status: in_force

The Legislature hereby finds and declares that there exists throughout the State large unincorporated areas which are particularly suited to and used for recreation resort purposes, and which are held and used by residents of this State but which are inhabited only seasonally. The Legislature further finds and declares that these resort areas are not suited to full urban development without destroying the very nature of the areas; but the seasonal residents of these areas are, nevertheless, in need of extended governmental services; and that the extension of governmental services and the construction and financing of public improvements in these resort areas is complicated by the facts that: (a) many of the services are needed only seasonally, and (b) most of the landowners whose property is benefited by the public improvements, because they are technically nonresidents, are without voice in the direction or method of financing of the necessary services and improvements. It is the intent of the Legislature in enacting this division to provide an alternative method for the furnishing of extended governmental services, including the construction and financing of public improvements, within recreation resort areas adequate to meet the needs of such areas; and to provide for the levy of taxes within such areas in an amount sufficient to pay for extended services provided, additional extended services to be provided, and for public improvements installed or constructed.
