DATE: April 9, 1987 County SUBJECT: Legislation: Assembly Bill 2284 (Filante and Nolan) SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(-S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATION• Adopt a position of support for AB 2284 by Assemblymen William Filante and Pat Nolan which would repeal a limitation on the ability of day care programs to transport children to specified extended day care programs. BACKGROUND: Under current law, transportation services for extended day care programs can only. be provided by school districts and county offices of education. Supervisor Torlakson has brought to the Board' s attention a situation in the Pittsburg School District. The School District does not have sufficient vehicles available to transport children to extended day care programs, but the Pittsburg Preschool Coordinating Council does have available sufficient vehicles which meet all applicable safety standards and whose drivers meet all appropriate licensing standards. The day care center operated by the Coordinating Council cannot, however, legally use their vehicles to transport children because of the limitation in existing law. In 1986, Senator Roberti carried legislation which would have repealed this provision. The bill passed the Legislature, but was vetoed by the Governor for reasons unrelated to this provision. Assemblymen Filante and Nolan have now introduced AB 2284 which, among other things, repeals the limitation described above. Since the repeal of this legislation is a part of the Board' s 1987 legislative program, it is recommended that the Board support AB 2284.
