AI Summary

This bill makes nonsubstantive technical amendments to Section 65402 of the California Government Code, which governs how local governments handle real property acquisitions, dispositions, and public building construction in relation to their general plans. The bill primarily updates language and formatting, such as changing "(40)" to "40" and restructuring some provisions, while maintaining the core requirements that local planning agencies must review and report on the conformity of proposed real property actions with existing general plans. The bill clarifies procedures for counties, cities, and local agencies when acquiring or disposing of property, constructing public buildings, or vacating streets, ensuring that such actions align with adopted general plans. It also specifies that if a planning agency does not respond within 40 days, the proposed action is deemed to be in conformity with the general plan. Additionally, the bill provides exceptions for minor street widening and alignment projects, and defines a "local agency" as a state agency performing governmental functions within limited boundaries, explicitly excluding the state, counties, and cities from this definition.
