From committee: Filed with the Chief Clerk pursuant to Joint Rule 56.
Summary
The bill establishes a new conservancy within California's Natural Resources Agency to buy, protect, and develop about 3,000 acres north of Huron for public use, wildlife habitat, and educational programs. A 12‑member board drawn from local officials and the public will run the conservancy, and a dedicated fund in the state treasury will hold any money it receives. The measure only takes effect if the Legislature appropriates money or approves a bond, and it requires the state to reimburse local agencies for any mandated costs.
