Bill > SB1115

This bill, SB 1115, makes a minor, non-substantive change to Section 59351 of the Government Code, which is part of the Special Assessment and Bond Refunding Law of 1939. This law governs how local governments can refund or cancel existing bonds related to special assessments, which are fees levied on properties to pay for public improvements like roads or sewers. Specifically, the bill clarifies that after the required filing is made (as outlined in Section 59350), the clerk must provide notice of this filing and announce a hearing date set by the clerk. This hearing allows anyone interested in the acquisition and cancellation of the original bonds, the diagram, or the assessment to be heard by the legislative body, which is the local government's governing council or board. The change is primarily to update the wording to be more gender-neutral and to explicitly reference the filing requirement from the preceding section.
