Professional photocopiers.

Existing law provides for the registration and regulation of professional photocopiers. Existing law requires the issuance of an identification card by the county clerk for each professional photocopier and imposes an additional $10 payment for each additional card. Under existing law, additional cards for employees of professional photocopiers are issued upon the payment of $10. This bill would instead authorize both of those additional types of cards to be issued upon the payment of an amount sufficient to cover the regulatory costs associated with the issuance of those cards. The bill would require the identification card for an employee of a professional photocopier or a partnership or corporation to contain a photograph of the employee. By imposing additional duties on county clerks, the 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.
