Existing law authorizes a county board of supervisors to appropriate and expend county general fund money to establish county programs or fund other programs to meet various social needs of the county population and the needs of physically, mentally, and financially handicapped persons and aged persons. Existing law authorizes the board of supervisors to contract with other public agencies, private agencies, or individuals to operate programs that the board of supervisors determines will serve public purposes. This bill would require the board of supervisors of the County of Orange to only appropriate district discretionary funds if the board of supervisors approves, by a majority vote, appropriating the district discretionary funds. The bill would require the board of supervisors of the county to post on its internet website a log of appropriated district discretionary funds at the end of each quarter, as specified. The bill would prohibit, within the 90 days preceding an election, a member of the board of supervisors of the county that is on a ballot as a supervisor district candidate of the board and has an opponent on that ballot from taking specified actions relating to district discretionary funds, except as specified, including placing an agenda item seeking approval to appropriate district discretionary funds on the agenda for a meeting of the board of supervisors of the county. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the County of Orange.
