FROM: Phil Batchelor Contra
County Administrator
Costa.
DATE'. April 1, 1987
County
SUBJECT: Legislation: Assembly Bill 1622 (Campbell)
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a position of support for AB 1622 . by Assemblyman Bob
Campbell which would increase the value of abandoned vehicles
which can be disposed of through expedited procedures from $100
, to $300.
BACKGROUND:
One of the Board' s priorities for legislation in 1987 is the
prompt elimination of abandoned vehicles. One specific piece of
this is to increase the value of vehicles which can be disposed
of through an expedited procedure from the current $100 to $300.
Current law provides that vehicles whose value .is $100, or less,
can be disposed of using expedited procedures which do not
require the, extensive notice, hearing, appeal, and holding
periods required of more valuable. vehicles. Relatively few
vehicles are worth less than $300--very few are worth less than
$100 . The increase in the threshhold of vehicles which can be
, disposed of through the existing expedited process will assist in
disposing of the least valuable vehicles in ashorter timeframe
while still insuring full due process for more valuable vehicles.
Since AB 1622 will assist. the County in disposing of the least
valuable abandoned vehicles in a more expeditious manner while
still preserving the right of the owner to reclaim the vehicle
and thereby further a portion of the Board' s 1987 Legislative
Program, we believe AB 1622 deserves the Board' s support.
