State of emergency: nonprofit liaison.

Summary

The bill adds a new government code section that obligates several state agencies to create a point of contact for nonprofit organizations when a state of emergency is declared. The liaison will coordinate resources, share grant information, and work with local agencies to reduce barriers for nonprofits providing relief. It also makes minor updates to existing land‑use indemnification rules under the Williamson Act.
