Bill seeks tighter control on L B tideland funds
Sacramento assemblyman Willie L Brown Jr introduced legislation expanding the State Lands Commission powers over Long Beach tidelands revenues. The bill requires prior commission approval for all capital improvements funded by tidelands money and extends oversight to the Tidelands Operating Fund. It would mandate filing 180 days before expenditures and increases inform requirements, challenging the 1964 compromise that left actual approval to the commission only when plans exceeded limits. Brown argues current rules let misuses slip through, while Long Beach asserts the 1964 framework avoids renewed litigation.
