EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
AB 400 (Rubio) Local agency design-build projects: authorization - Existing law authorizes local agencies, as defined, to use the design-build procurement process for specified types of projects, as prescribed. Existing law, among other requirements for the design-build procurement process, requires specified information submitted by a design-build entity to be certified under penalty of perjury. These provisions authorizing the use of the design-build procurement process are repealed on January 1, 2025.This bill would remove the January 1, 2025, repeal date, thereby making these provisions operative indefinitely. By extending the design-build authorization, the bill would expand the crime of perjury, thereby imposing a state-mandated local program. This bill contains other related provisions and other existing laws.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The proposed action is not a project as defined by 14 California Code of Regulations 15378 (State CEQA Guidelines) and therefore CEQA is not applicable.
