| Issue: |
COW PALACE GUN SHOW BAN (Leno) |
| |
| Description: |
SB 585, Leno. Agricultural District 1-A: firearm sales at the Cow
Palace.
Existing law generally regulates the transfer of firearms and
divides the state into agricultural districts. District 1-A is the
County of San Mateo and the City and County of San Francisco. A
violation of statutes governing agricultural districts is a
misdemeanor.
This bill would prohibit events at which firearms and ammunition
are sold at the Cow Palace, as specified, located in District 1-A,
except as provided, and would thereby make a violation of that
prohibition a misdemeanor. The bill would authorize up to 5 of those
events per year for 3 years and would require the district to replace
those events with nonfirearm and nonammunition events, as provided.
By creating a new crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated
local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this
act for a specified reason.
