City of Ione: police department: reimbursement.

Existing law prescribes the duties of the Controller, which generally regard supervision of the fiscal concerns of the state. This bill would authorize the City of Ione to apply to the Controller for reimbursement of costs incurred by the Ione Police Department as a result of Mule Creek State Prison. The bill would require the Ione Police Department to prepare a statement of costs and to send the statement to the Controller for approval. The bill would require the Controller to reimburse the City of Ione, as specified, or provide a written statement as to the reason for not making the reimbursement. The bill would continuously appropriate, from the General Fund to the Controller, the amount necessary to reimburse the City of Ione. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for the City of Ione.
