State Capitol Park: California Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) Civil Rights Monument.

Existing law prescribes various duties for the Department of General Services in connection with the development and maintenance of the park around the State Capitol Building. Existing law also authorizes the construction of various memorial monuments in the Capitol Historic Region. This bill would authorize the California Legislative LGBT Caucus Foundation, in consultation with the California Legislative LGBT Caucus and the department, to plan and undertake construction of a monument honoring California's LGBT movement's civil rights history within the State Capitol Park. The bill would require the California Legislative LGBT Caucus Foundation and the California Legislative LGBT Caucus, if they undertake responsibility to construct a monument pursuant to these provisions, to establish a schedule for the design, construction, and dedication of the monument. The bill would require the department to meet specified goals. The bill would also require the planning, construction, and maintenance of the monument to be funded exclusively through private donations.
