Background Information
Motion to Support ACA 7
PPCC's adopted position, already expressed in five motions passed by the Board, is strongly in
support of local control over land use and zoning decisions (Oppose SB 827, SB 50, SB 9 and SB
10; Support SB 15). See: http://pacpalicc.org/index.php/organizations/ (scroll down to Planning & Density;
links to position letters and statements).
Assemblymembers Al Muratsuchi (D-Torrance) and Steve Glazer (D-Contra Costa) introduced
ACA 7 in the State Assembly last March, proposing an amendment to the State Constitution that
would restore local government control over land use decisions. For reasons unknown the bill
has not yet been assigned to an Assembly policy committee.
If passed in the legislature, ACA 7 would put this proposed Constitutional amendment on the
next ballot for a decision by the voters.
Secretary Chris Spitz proposes that the PPCC Board take a position to support ACA 7 and request
that the bill be assigned to the appropriate Assembly policy committee as soon as possible.
