SENATOR THANK YOU MR CHANCE FOR
ME THE UP TO PRESENT THIS
MORNING AB THREE THREE FORWARD-
WOULD CLARIFY CONFLICT OF
INTEREST STATUTE WHICH WAS
WRITTEN AND INTENDED FOR THE
SITUATION OF PUBLIC OFFICIALS
WILL HOLD A FINANCIAL INTEREST.
IN AN ENTITY ATTEMPTING TO CUT A
CONTRACT WITH THE PUBLIC AGENCY
FOR WHICH THE OFFICIAL IS A
DECISION MAKER. SINCE THE CODES
INCEPTION COURTS HAVE EXPANDED
TEN NINETY SO IT MAY APPLY TO
ENTITIES THAT CONTRACT WITH
PUBLIC AGENCIES UNDER
CIRCUMSTANCES IN FACT. PATTERNS
THAT ARE MURKY AT BEST. THE
STATEMENT SAID CLARITY FOR
PUBLIC AGENCY WHEN CONTRACTED
WITH INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS. ON
PUBLIC PROJECTS THAT THEIR
NORMAL HISTORICAL. OF
CONTRACTING PRACTICES WILL NOT
VIOLATE CODES SECTION TEN
NINETY. THIS BILL SEEKS TO DO SO
BY ADOPTING A TWO PART. TEST
LAID OUT IN CASE LAW AND F. PPC
GUIDANCE WHICH IS USEFUL FOR

CIVIL OR EVEN CRIMINAL PULLED
PENALTIES FOR ANY AND ALL
PARTIES INVOLVED. FOR EXAMPLE.
DESIGN PROFESSIONALS ARE BEING
DENIED BY PUBLIC AGENCIES EVEN
IF THEY ARE THE BEST MOST
QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS. FOR THE

DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE STATE
AND LOCAL AGENCIES ARE ALREADY
REQUIRED UNDER STATE AND FEDERAL
STATUTE TO COMPETITIVELY SELECT.
THESE PROFESSIONALS ON THE BASIS
OF QUALIFICATIONS AB THREE THREE
FOUR. SIX TO RESTORE CLARITY TO
PUBLIC AGENCIES OF THESE
AGENCIES MAY RESUME UTILIZING A
CONTRACTED ENTITY MORE THAN ONCE
IN A SINGLE PROJECT WITHOUT FEAR
OF BEING PENALIZED OR
PROSECUTED. ULTIMATELY THE
PUBLIC DESERVES THE BEST SAFEST
AND MOST COST EFFECTIVE PUBLIC
WORKS PROJECT IT IS THE PUBLIC
WHO SUFFERS WHEN THE PROJECTS

ITEM NUMBER TWO ASSEMBLY. THREE
NINETY EIGHT BY IT ASSEMBLY
MEMBER. PELLERIN WELCOME TO THE
COMMITTEE GOOD MORNING THANK YOU
. SO THE ELECTIONS CODE
CURRENTLY STATES THAT AN
ELECTIONS OFFICIAL CAN ISSUE A
REPLACEMENT MAIL BALLOT. TO ANY
VOTER WHO PROVIDES A STATEMENT
UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY THAT
THEY HAVE LOST. FAILED TO
RECEIVE OR DESTROYED THEIR
ORIGINAL BALLOT. THE SIGNATURE
REQUIREMENT DELAYS THE PROCESS
FOR VOTERS AS ELECTIONS
OFFICIALS ARE BARRED FROM
ISSUING A REPLACEMENT BALLOT.
UNTIL THEY RECEIVE THE STATEMENT
SIGNED UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY
EVEN AT THE VOTERS ALREADY
CONTACTED ELECTIONS OFFICIALS
REQUESTED BALLOT. THIS
REQUIREMENT IS REDUNDANT AS
COUNTIES ARE ABLE TO TRACK THE
MAIL BALLOT RETURNS TO ENSURE
THAT VOTERS ARE NOT VOTING TWICE
WITH REPLACEMENT BALLOTS. AB
THREE NINE EIGHT REMOVES THE
REQUIREMENT OF A WET SIGNATURE
UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY TO
REQUEST THAT REPLACEMENT BALLOT.
AND INSTEAD REQUIRES A VOTER TO
PROVIDE THE ELECTIONS OFFICIAL
WITH SPECIFIED PERSONAL
IDENTIFYING INFORMATION. THE
BILL ALSO SUBSTITUTES THE TERMS
SECOND VOTE BY MAIL BALLOT WORD
APPEARS IN CODE WITH THE WORDS
REPLACEMENT BALLOT IN ORDER TO
MORE ACCURATELY DESCRIBED THESE
BALLOTS AS REPLACEMENTS RATHER
THAN A SECOND BALLOT TO CEMENT.
THE REMOVAL OF THE WET SIGNATURE
REQUIREMENT WILL MAKE THE
REPLACEMENT BALLOT REQUEST
PROCESS MORE EFFICIENT FOR BOTH
VOTERS AND ELECTIONS OFFICIALS.
WITHOUT THE WHAT SIGNATURE
REQUIREMENT VOTERS WILL BE ABLE
TO SUBMIT THE REQUEST FOR
REPLACEMENT BALLOT EITHER
ONLINE. OVER THE PHONE AND WITH
ELECTIONS STAFF WHO WILL BE ABLE
TO IMMEDIATELY ACT ON THAT
REQUEST. AB THREE NINE EIGHT IS
SPONSORED BY THE CALIFORNIA
