Bill Summary

An act to amend Section 18999.8 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, relating to homelessness.

AI Summary

This bill, known as the Cannabis Payment Protection Act, makes two primary changes: first, it allows cities designated as local health jurisdictions to establish homeless adult and family multidisciplinary personnel teams, similar to how counties can already do so, to help identify, assess, and connect homeless individuals with housing and services, and to permit these teams to share confidential information for better care coordination; and second, it requires the Department of Cannabis Control (the state agency that regulates cannabis businesses) to suspend the license of a cannabis business if it has a court order or civil judgment against it for failing to pay for goods or services from another licensed cannabis business, and this suspension will remain until the debt is paid, with the department authorized to charge fees to cover administrative costs for these actions.
