<br />were present when a licensee obtained a license
<br />for alcohol sales and does not give cities the ability
<br />to change the law and enforce it. SB 148 requires
<br />retail liquor sales licensees issued a Type 20 or
<br />Type 21 off-sale retail license, to comply with
<br />zoning regulations which a city or county adopts
<br />after a licensee obtains a liquor license.
<br />
<br />SB 148 would assist cities and counties
<br />throughout California in addressing repeated
<br />public safety problems often associated with
<br />nuisance liquor stores such as vandalism, littering,
<br />loitering, graffiti, excessive loud noises, public
<br />drunkenness and lewd conduct. Staff: Liisa
<br />Lawson Stark; Status: AsGO, Hrg. June 8;
<br />Position: Support.
<br />
<br />AB1329 (Wolk) Design Build Contracting:
<br />Cities. AB 1329 permits cities residing in the Yolo
<br />and Solano Counties to enter into design-build
<br />contracts until January 1,2011, subject to the
<br />conditions and requirements currently applicable
<br />to design-build contracts in Alameda, Contra
<br />Costa, Sacramento, Santa Clara, Solano,
<br />Sonoma, and Tulare Counties. AB 1329 would
<br />limit city design-build contracting to projects for the
<br />erection of structures, but excludes from entering
<br />into design-build contracts for the construction of
<br />roads, bridges, and other transit and non-transit
<br />infrastructure. The League supports allowing
<br />design-build contracting as an option to cities.
