AB 92, Budget Act of 2011, as introduced is the Assembly's
annual Budget bill: among its many provisions, relating to
animals and funding appropriation for FTB:
Provisions:
1. It is the intent of the Legislature that all funds appropriated
to the Franchise Tax Board for processing tax returns, auditing,
and collecting owed tax amounts shall be used in a manner
consistent with both its authorized budget and with the
documents that were presented to the Legislature for its review
in support of that budget. The Franchise Tax Board shall not
reduce expenditures or redirect either funding or personnel
resources away from direct auditing or collection activities
without prior approval of the Director of Finance. The director
shall not approve any such reduction or redirection sooner than
30 days after providing notification to the Joint Legislative Budget
Committee. No such position maybe transferred from the
organizational unit to which it was assigned in the 2011-12
Governor's Budget and the Salaries and Wages Supplement as
revised by legislative actions without the approval of the
Department of Finance. Furthermore, the board shall
expeditiously fill budgeted positions consistent with the funding
provided in this act.
2. It is the intent of the Legislature that the Franchise Tax
Board resolve tax controversies, without litigation, on a basis that
is fair to both the state and the taxpayer and in a manner that
will enhance voluntary compliance and public confidence in the
integrity and efficiency of the board.
3. During the 2011-12 fiscal year, the collection cost recovery
fee for purposes of subparagraph (A) of paragraph (1) of
subdivision (a) of Section 19254 of the Revenue and Taxation
Code shall be $154, and the filing enforcement cost recovery fee
for purposes of subparagraph (A) of paragraph (2) of that
subdivision shall be $88.
4. During the 2011-12 fiscal year, the collection cost recovery
fee for purposes of subparagraph (B) of paragraph (1) of
subdivision (a) of Section 19254 of the Revenue and Taxation
Code shall be $249, and the filing enforcement cost recovery fee
for purposes of subparagraph (B) of paragraph (2) of that
subdivision shall be $104.

As introduced, AB 805 would comprehensively reorganize and

effective on and after January 1, 2014, including within its lengthy
provision, a new Civil Code Section 4715. (a) No governing
documents shall prohibit the owner of a separate interest within
a common interest development from keeping at least one pet
within the common interest development, subject to reasonable
rules and regulations of the association. This section may
not be construed to affect any other rights provided by law to an
owner of a separate interest to keep a pet within the
development.
(b) For purposes of this section, "pet" means any domesticated
bird, cat, dog, aquatic animal kept within an aquarium, or other
animal as agreed to between the association and the
homeowner.
(c) If the association implements a rule or regulation restricting
the number of pets an owner may keep, the new rule or
regulation
shall not apply to prohibit an owner from continuing to keep any
pet that the owner currently keeps in the owner's separate
interest if the pet otherwise conforms with the previous rules or
regulations relating to pets.
