California State Military Museum and Resource Center.
Summary
(1) Existing law authorizes the Adjutant General, the commander of all state military forces, to establish a California State Military Museum and Resource Center as a repository for military artifacts, memorabilia, equipment, documents, and other items relating to the history of the California National Guard. Existing law authorizes the Adjutant General to enter into an operating agreement with the California State Military Museum Foundation, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation that is tax exempt under Section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code, under which the foundation operates the California State Military Museum and Resource Center in coordination with the California State Military Reserve's California Center for Military History. Existing law provides that the board of trustees of the foundation is the governing authority for operations funded through moneys received by the foundation, and requires the board of trustees to submit an audit report annually to the Adjutant General. Existing law also requires the board of trustees to submit a business plan for the following fiscal year no later than January 10 of each year, and any formal amendments to the business plan to the Adjutant General, the Director of Finance, and the Chair of the Joint Legislative Budget Committee for review and comment. This bill would substitute "board of directors" for "board of trustees" wherever that term appears. This bill would also require the Board of Directors of the California State Military Foundation to submit an audit report, no later than October 15 of each year, to the Adjutant General, the Chair of the Joint Legislative Audit Committee, the Chair of the Joint Legislative Budget Committee, and the Director of Finance. This bill would require the board of directors to submit a business plan for the following fiscal year no later than March 15 of each year. (2) Existing law requires the Adjutant General to provide suitable accommodations within the California National Guard Military Museum and Resource Center for the care and display of the display cabinets that were once used to display, at the State Capitol, the books, papers, and other artifacts relating to the Grand Army of the Republic, and permits the Adjutant General to make arrangements for use of the display cabinets in the public display of the artifacts throughout the state. This bill would substitute "California State Military Museum and Resource Center" for "California National Guard Military Museum and Resource Center" wherever that term appears.
