SB 1530: Veterans homes.

Existing law provides for the establishment and operation of veterans homes at various sites and provides for an administrator of each home, as specified. Existing law establishes the duties of the Department of Veterans Affairs with regard to the establishment and regulation of veterans homes. Existing law requires the department to fix a schedule of wages for members who are employed at a home, subject to the approval of the Director of Finance.

This bill would instead authorize the department to fix a schedule of stipends for members who volunteer to support veterans home operations, as specified, subject to the availability of funding and approval of the Director of Finance.
