TITLE 2. STATE COUNCIL ON

DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES

NOTICE OF INTENTION TO AMEND THE

CONFLICT−OF−INTEREST CODE

OF THE STATE COUNCIL ON

DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the State Council

on Developmental Disabilities pursuant to the authority

vested in it by section 87306 of the Government Code,

proposes amendment to its conflict−of−interest code. A

comment period has been established commencing on

December 22, 2017, and closing on February 5, 2018.

All inquiries should be directed to the contact listed

below.

The State Council on Developmental Disabilities

proposes to amend its conflict−of−interest code to in-

clude employee positions that involve the making or

participation in the making of decisions that may fore-

seeably have a material effect on any financial interest,

as set forth in subdivision (a) of section 87302 of the

Government Code. The amendment carries out the pur-

poses of the law and no other alternative would do so

and be less burdensome to affected persons.

Changes to the conflict−of−interest code include the

changes described below and as well as other technical

changes:

Assembly Bill 1595 made changes relating to staff

positions of the State Council on Developmental Dis-

abilities (SCDD) which made it necessary to review and

amend the SCDD’s Conflict−of−Interest Code (COI

Code). The proposed updated code reflects these

changes. The COI Code adopted in 2003 requires only

sources of income that “receive public funding and

have as at least ten percent (10%) of their clientele, per-

sons with developmental disabilities” to be reported on

the Form 700. Proposed changes instead require report-

ing a business or source of income that is involved with

developmental disabilities products or services. The

proposed amendments result in more disclosure and

transparency than the current Code provides.

In addition, proposed technical changes have been

made to match the updated Fair Political Practices

Commission template and requirements.

Information on the code amendment is available on

the agency’s website.

Any interested person may submit written comments

relating to the proposed amendment by submitting them

no later than February 5, 2018, or at the conclusion of

the public hearing, if any requested, whichever comes

later. At this time, no public hearing is scheduled. A per-

son may request a hearing no later than January 22,

2018.

The State Council on Developmental Disabilities has

determined that the proposed amendments:

1. Impose no mandate on local agencies or school

districts.

2. Impose no costs or savings on any state agency.

3. Impose no costs on any local agency or school

district that are required to be reimbursed under

Part 7 (commencing with Section 17500) of

Division 4 of Title 2 of the Government Code.

4. Will not result in any nondiscretionary costs or

savings to local agencies.

5. Will not result in any costs or savings in federal

funding to the state.

6. Will not have any potential cost impact on private

persons, businesses or small businesses.

All inquiries concerning this proposed amendment

and any communication required by this notice should

be directed to: Natalie Bocanegra, Legal Counsel at

(916) 322−5602 or natalie.bocanegra@dss.ca.gov.

TITLE 4. CALIFORNIA HORSE

RACING BOARD

NOTICE OF PROPOSAL TO AMEND

RULE 1699. RIDING RULES

The California Horse Racing Board (Board/CHRB)

proposes to amend the regulation described below after

considering all comments, objections or recommenda-

tions regarding the proposed action.

PROPOSED REGULATORY ACTION

ards. When penalizing a jockey for riding contrary to

the rule, the stewards shall issue a minimum suspension

of two race−days, and shall issue a penalty greater than
