Existing law generally provides financial support for cities and counties to provide public safety services, including, among other funding, moneys allocated through the Local Revenue Fund 2011 and its accounts. Existing law, enacted by the voters as the Homelessness, Drug Addiction, and Theft Reduction Act (Proposition 36) at the November 5, 2024, statewide general election, authorizes the Board of State and Community Corrections to allocate appropriate funds to counties and local governments for programs under the Treatment-Mandated Felony Act, as specified.
This bill, the Funding of Proposition 36 Act, would create the California Public Safety Services Support Fund to be used, upon appropriation by the Legislature, to implement Proposition 36. The bill would transfer moneys from the General Fund to the California Public Safety Services Support Fund and make an appropriation for the 202627 fiscal year, as specified. The bill would also require, beginning in the 202728 fiscal year, the Governor to annually include a proposed transfer from the General Fund to the California Public Safety Services Support Fund of an amount sufficient to fully fund the continued implementation of Proposition 36 as part of the Governors proposed budget to the Legislature.
This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
